Zhou Haoxuan looked at his father and felt very distressed.

Although my father is a businessman, he has always been calm and elegant. Now he is so angry that his face turns red and pale. It is really unexpected.

He was a gentleman, so naturally he couldn't say anything bad about his aunt, but he still felt heartbroken at this moment.

"Father, please take care of yourself. I came here to discuss something important with my cousin."

After Zhou Haoxuan's reminder, the eldest master of the Zhou family suddenly remembered.

By the way, he came this time not only to visit his sister, but also to discuss important matters, which concern the future of the Zhou family.

But just now, he broke off relations with his sister in front of his niece. Is this... still okay?

Liu Rumei seemed to see what the Zhou family's eldest master was thinking and couldn't help but sigh.

"Uncle, it's a good thing you are sober, otherwise the Zhou family would have to pay a heavy price today."

The eldest master of the Zhou family did not expect that Liu Rumei would say this. Doesn’t she think that she has gone too far?

"Kid, where did you get this from?"

Liu Rumei looked at the eldest master of the Zhou family, refilled his tea personally, and then sneered.

“Uncle, you don’t know that this Marquis’ Mansion is really greedy, and they want to take over the Zhou family for themselves.

They wanted me to be the prince's concubine not only for the two hundred thousand taels of silver as a dowry, but also to make the entire Zhou family their money bag."

The eldest master of the Zhou family took a breath. Is he so greedy?

But he thought about it carefully. Now that the princes have grown up, the fight for the throne is only a matter of time.

Whatever the person in power wants, how can businessmen like them refuse it?

"What if my Zhou family refuses to comply?"

"Uncle, how could they care about a few lives? They don't care about my life or the lives of the Zhou family.

I was pushed into the water by a maid and sent to the prince's mansion by my father. They didn't care whether I could survive or not."

Liu Rumei laughed at herself, and the Zhou family's eldest master felt extremely distressed.

"Where's your mother? Didn't she care?"

Previously, the eldest master of the Zhou family felt that Zhou Miaoyi had no choice, but now, he suddenly became a little suspicious?

"She? In her heart, my marriage is insignificant, not as important as one of her books or paintings.

In her mind, children don’t matter, and her parents should give everything for her. Instead, it is her husband who is the most important.”

If Liu Rumei had said this before, the Zhou family's eldest master would definitely not want to believe it. After all, she was his biological sister, and he had to protect her no matter what.

But now, he believed it and felt very sympathetic towards Liu Rumei.

"She's just a fool! Don't worry, kid. From now on, I will support you. No one should think of hurting you!"

Although the Zhou family's eldest master said so, Liu Rumei still had doubts.

That’s Zhou Miaoyi, can he really bear to let her go?

Even if he made up his mind to cut off all contact, would the two elders of the Zhou family be willing to do so?

She never thought of competing for favor with Zhou Miaoyi. After all, they were blood relatives and there was no room for competition.

But she wanted a guarantee, that is, they could not be confused between the future of the Zhou family and Zhou Miaoyi.

"Uncle, what if Zhou Miaoyi wants to embarrass me or harm me?!"

Zhou Haoxuan’s eyes widened. His cousin actually called his mother like that!

What on earth happened that made my cousin hate her mother so much?

"Kid, what on earth happened!"

"Uncle, I don't want to say more. In short, Zhou Miaoyi no longer sees me as her daughter. In my heart, she is not a mother either.

I don't expect the Zhou family to stand on my side. After all, blood ties cannot be severed. I just hope that the Zhou family and my uncle will not be confused and do things that harm our interests.

Of course, if my uncle can't do it, then I can also find someone else to cooperate with. After all, this concerns the future of the people of the world and me."

Liu Rumei said this not to scare the other party, but naturally she had considered it carefully.

After all, although the Zhou family is more convenient, it is not irreplaceable.

She chose the Zhou family more for herself, and of course, also to repay the Zhou family for taking care of them.

The eldest master of the Zhou family did not answer immediately, but gave the answer after careful consideration.

"Don't worry, the Zhou family is trustworthy and will not betray their promises for one person."

After hearing such a reassurance, Liu Rumei felt relieved and revealed her plan in detail.

“Will there really be a severe drought?”

"It will be less than a month, so we don't have much time left."

"Then we have to act quickly. Besides food and medicinal materials, is there anything else we need to prepare?"

"Uncle trusts me so much? What if he is wrong? Not only will the Zhou family lose the position of prefect, but they will also lose their status as imperial merchants."

"Haha, you are too thoughtful. I believe in you, and the Zhou family believes in you too. Even if you are wrong, you just lost a deal, just a little money."

Liu Rumei smiled. The Zhou family's eldest master was so generous that she felt relieved.

"Don't worry, uncle. Get ready as soon as possible. Our Zhou family will surely flourish in this drought."

With Liu Rumei in the city, the Zhou family's eldest master felt relieved.

He actually thought about whether he should meet King Xian, after all, this was a big deal.

But now that he thinks about it, forget it. He has nothing prepared now, so what qualifications does he have to meet King Xian?

Once food and medicinal materials arrive, there will be a better opportunity.

"Okay, that's good! By the way, besides this, what else do I need to do?"

"Uncle, it's enough for you to do these things. I will arrange the rest."

The eldest master of the Zhou family looked at Liu Rumei and in a short period of time, he no longer treated her as a child.

He felt sad and upset, but more of a relief.

Fortunately, this child is smart and fortunately she is so strong.

The eldest master of the Zhou family originally planned to stay for two days, but he was hurt by his sister, so he had no intention of staying.

And this matter was urgent, so I gave all the gifts to my niece and prepared to go north.

He was going north, but there was only one thing he couldn't let go of.

"It's a long journey to the north, so it's not convenient for me to take your cousin with me. Your cousin is in Kyoto, so please help me keep an eye on him and don't let him meddle in other people's business. Let him study hard."

Liu Rumei looked at Zhou Haoxuan and said, “You’re such a pity, kid. Studying is so hard.”

It's like summer vacation, but your dad has left you a lot of summer homework.

"Don't worry, uncle. I will definitely keep an eye on my cousin and prevent him from getting into trouble."

"That's good."

Zhou Haoxuan was speechless. Is he a troublemaker?

Is there some misunderstanding between my father and my cousin? He is here to study seriously.

Watching his father leave, Zhou Haoxuan sighed helplessly.

He knew that his father was worried about him, which was why he asked his cousin to pay more attention to him, but he really didn't need it, and he would be strict with himself.

"Don't worry about me, cousin. I will study hard and live up to the expectations of my family."

Liu Rumei glanced at him. It’s really not easy for this kid. He’s also a top scorer.

"Cousin, are you going to participate in the autumn examination this year?"

"nature."

"Oh, then you're really tired. Studying is so tiring and boring. You should combine work and rest. You should rest when you need to."
