Chapter Seventy-Seven: Heavy Gifts

Previous Chapter

Mrs. Zhuang was served by Cui'e and combed, her white hair was meticulously combed, and she was finally radiant, so she half lay on the couch and waited for Miss Wang to come in.

After Miss Wang came in, she saw at a glance that Mrs. Zhuang was still so strong, and when she heard that she was stunned, she could still sit up energetically to see herself, and she couldn't help but admire the old lady's strong temperament.

"Auntie, are you okay? When my mother heard that you were not feeling well, she hurriedly sent me to greet your old man. Miss Wang asked with a smile.

Old Madam Zhuang was supported by Cui'e Mama and nodded, "It's okay!" OK! It's just a bit of a cold, and it alarmed your mother, I'm really sorry, is your mother okay? When you get older, you always have to pay more attention! ”

Wu Yuan followed Boss Wang into the house, but heard that his grandmother did not directly say the reason for his illness, only said that he had a cold, and he thought that he also wanted to save face for the banker, and he didn't want Zhuang Zhiyong to be embarrassed on his face.

Miss Wang knew the reason for this, but she just looked at Mrs. Zhuang with a smile and didn't break her, after all, the host didn't want to say it, and as a guest, there was naturally no reason to break it.

Miss Wang just smiled and said, "My mother is fine, a few days ago I said that I haven't seen you go out for a long time, and I want to invite you to worship the Buddha!" ”

Old Madam Zhuang smiled and said, "When I get better, I will go with your mother, speaking of which, we haven't gone out together for a long time!" ”

Mama Cui'e took the medicine bowl brought in by the maid, and wanted to serve Mrs. Zhuang to take the medicine, but Mrs. Zhuang glanced at the medicine bowl, the black soup bowl, and looked uncomfortable, waved her hand, and signaled to drink it later.

Seeing this, Miss Wang smiled and took the medicine bowl and said, "I'm tired of going to get some plum preserves, this medicine smells bitter, and the old lady will be bitter in her mouth when she drinks it later!" My mother is prone to wind chill when the weather is cold, this season is always a soup of medicine, we have to coax the old lady to drink medicine every time, this service to the old man to drink medicine, I still have a very good way! ”

After speaking, Miss Wang was going to serve Mrs. Zhuang to drink medicine.

Cui'e Mama hurriedly said: "I can't help it, I can't help it, Miss Wang, you are a guest, how can I bother you!" I'll just be here to serve! ”

Miss Wang didn't comply, and ordered with a smile: "Mama go and get the candied fruit quickly, and there is clear tea, and the old lady will drink the medicinal tea and rinse her mouth later, and then eat the candied fruit." ”

I saw Miss Wang scooping up a small spoonful of decoction with a spoon, and slowly serving the old lady to drink spoonful by spoonful, not in a hurry or impatient.

Seeing that the old lady did not resist, Cui'e had to quickly go and get plum preserves and tea, and when she came back, a bowl of soup and medicine was about to bottom.

Cui'e Mama hurriedly handed over the tea, and after Mrs. Zhuang rinsed her mouth, she took the candied fruit from Miss Wang's hand and put it in her mouth, which made her feel a lot better.

Mrs. Zhuang said with a smile: "This is still a girl!" You see, I don't have this patience when I use it, I'm afraid that I will laugh at me for being old and hypocritical, and I can't drink a bowl of soup and medicine! You don't know, after drinking this medicine for a few days, I am about to gag when I smell this medicine! I don't dare to get sick again! Or is your mother blessed to give birth to such a well-behaved daughter as you! ”

Miss Wang smiled and served Mrs. Zhuang half-lying, just when she saw Wu Yuan standing at the door and looking in, she hurriedly called her in.

Wu Yuan entered the room a little embarrassed and stood aside with his hands down.

Old Madam Zhuang asked with a smile, "Why don't you come into the house?" What are you looking at outside! Seeing my grandmother sick, but it scared our eldest lady? ”

Wu Yuan hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, my granddaughter wanted to come in, but I just happened to see Boss Wang serving my grandmother, so I was a little embarrassed to come in, my granddaughter was supposed to serve my grandmother。。。。。。 It's just that the granddaughter is clumsy, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to do it well. ”

Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they heard this.

"It's still Boss Wang who has a way, my grandmother drank the medicine so happily! If only Boss Wang could stay here! My grandmother is not afraid to drink medicine! Wu Yuan said softly.

Boss Wang's face turned crimson when he heard this, and he could see at a glance that this little girl's mind was thinking that she was trying to match herself with Zhuang Zhi!

It's just that Mrs. Zhuang has always been dignified, but I'm afraid that she won't accept herself, and her family is bent on recruiting a son-in-law, these two problems are in front of her, I'm afraid it's not easy.

Therefore, although she and Zhuang Zhiyong are happy with each other, they dare not find out, but they are just friends of brother and sister, abide by the sense of proportion, and dare not take a step beyond Lei Chi.

Sometimes, it is easy to get along without explaining, and I am afraid that I will go further and further away, and finally become strangers.

Cui'e also heard what Wu Yuan said, and looked at Miss Wang thoughtfully, in terms of family background and talent, Miss Wang is a first-class candidate, but the Wang family has always said that they want to recruit their son-in-law into the door, so Miss Wang's family affairs have been delayed.

Otherwise, such a good family affair, I am afraid that the matchmaker in Yangzhou City has already stepped on the threshold of the Wang family!

Old Madam Zhuang still pretended not to hear what Wu Yuan meant, but said with a smile: "Little girl is talking nonsense again!" Miss Wang is such a busy big boss, how can she stay in our dealer to serve me! It's good that my grandmother is accompanied by our delicate girl! As long as Yuan Niang is in the dealer's house, my grandmother will be happy! ”

Miss Wang listened to Mrs. Zhuang's words, her eyes were a little dim, but she returned to normal in an instant, smiled and asked her subordinates to bring in the supplements, pointed to one of the boxes and said: "This is the old ginseng, I know that Brother Zhuang is in the medicinal materials business, and the Zhuang family is not short of good medicinal materials, but this ginseng was purchased from the Western Regions, and it has been a few years, so please smile at the old lady!" ”

Mrs. Zhuang was shocked when she heard this, she had also traveled south and north in her early years to run business with the old lady of the Zhuang family, knowing that the return from the Western Regions was difficult and dangerous, bandits were rampant, and the checkpoints were constant.

The ginseng of the Western Regions is even more rare, and in the bitter cold land, it takes hundreds of years of growth to get such a large old ginseng.

Old Madam Zhuang hurriedly excused herself and said, "I really dare not take such a valuable gift, your mother is also old, keep it for your mother!" ”

Miss Wang smiled and said, "Don't see outside, there are two ginseng plants in total, and my mother keeps one plant!" It was my mother who asked me to bring this plant to visit you! You must take it! Otherwise, you know my mother's temperament, and if you don't accept it, you might go back and complain about me! ”

Old Madam Zhuang hesitated when she heard this.

Wu Yuan hurriedly hugged the box and said with a hippie smile: "Grandmother, you can accept it!" You can't let Boss Wang go back and be scolded! This makes it difficult for Boss Wang to do! ”

Mrs. Zhuang reluctantly poked Wu Yuan's head and asked Cui'e to accept it.

Miss Wang said goodbye to Mrs. Zhuang with a smile, and Mama Cui'e and Wu Yuan hurriedly went to see Miss Wang out.

Mrs. Zhuang looked at the old ginseng box sent by the girl of the Wang family thoughtfully, what was the purpose of this Mrs. Wang suddenly showing favor and giving such a valuable gift?
