Zhenfubao waved his hand and the warehouse was full of grain, and the whole family regretted it
Chapter 631 Is your family worthy?
Su Niantang is eight years old now, and it is time for boys and girls to keep separate. People in ancient times matured early, and boys and girls kept separate when they were around ten years old.
Now that this matter has been exposed, I'm afraid Su Niantang's reputation is really ruined.
Su Niantang cried and said:
“That’s obviously not the case, I was hiding in the corner with Zao Zao.
I wanted to see how Zhou Mingxuan would talk to Bai Wanwan, but I never knew something like this would happen.
Madam Su was so angry that she cursed:
"Did you bring your brain with you when you went out? I told you a long time ago that you should never run around in situations like this.
You, on the other hand, insist on going to watch the excitement. What’s so good about that kind of excitement?
We were supposed to be here to watch the fun, but now we've become the cause of the fun."
Mrs. Su became angrier and angrier as she spoke. Everyone knew that the Zhou family had a good plan and was planning to bring Bai Wanwan into the mansion to be their grandson's wife.
Bai Wanwan is famous for being rich. It is said that after just a few gambles, her assets have reached millions of silver.
Not to mention that she owns many shops and farms. She is simply a walking God of Wealth.
Everyone knows what the Zhou family has done. Today, the second wife of the Zhou family also wanted to make this matter a done deal, but who knew that she would end up eating her own melon?
Su Niantang suddenly became anxious: "Mother, I don't want to marry that fool, what should we do?"
Madam Su said calmly, "It's absolutely impossible for you to marry that fool. You're only eight years old. It would be reasonable to say you were just playing around."
Bai Wanwan ate and drank to her heart's content at the birthday party, which was quite good.
Mrs. Zhou Er sneered and slammed her chopsticks into the plate. "Miss Bai has a good appetite. She can even eat such greasy food."
Bai Wanwan had just swallowed the bear paw in her mouth. She blinked and nodded seriously when she heard this:
"It's really good, but it's still a little lacking compared to the cooking skills of the Princess Mansion's kitchen.
The bear paws I ate at home last time were cooked in a broth made with an old hen and ham that had been hanging for three days. The flavor was so delicious that it penetrated the bones!"
She changed the subject, picked up a piece of venison, took a sip, and said:
“But this venison is stewed with real skill.
The sauce aroma is tinged with a hint of pine needle bitterness, which cuts through the greasiness and suits my taste even better than bear paw.
The maid had already placed the fish belly firmly into her bowl.
Bai Wanwan picked it up and took a half bite. The smooth and tender texture trembled on the tip of her tongue, and her eyes lit up:
"This fish maw is delicious! It looks shiny and greasy, but it's actually blanched in scallion and ginger water, so it doesn't have any fishy smell at all, and it's so delicious with the broth."
It tastes like soft jade when chewed, and is even more tender than the last time I ate it."
Mrs. Zhou Er was so angry that she was shaking. Mrs. Bai smiled and said, "Oh! My granddaughter is the pickiest eater. It seems that these dishes are really delicious."
After eating and drinking, Mrs. Zhou looked at Mrs. Bai and said:
"Wan'er, we really didn't help you. Our family's situation wasn't good either, and it was all because of you.
Of course I'm angry with you, but it's all in the past, so don't take it to heart."
Madam Bai smiled faintly and said, "I naturally won't take this little thing to heart. What's more, what you think has nothing to do with me."
Mrs. Tuesday continued:
"That Bai Qiaoniang is not your biological daughter after all, do you really want to count on her?
I still think you should think carefully about the Zhou family. After all, your mother is from the Zhou family..."
Madam Bai looked at her with a half-smile and said:
"Yes! My mother is indeed from the Zhou family, so if you have any problems, go find her!
If she insists on helping you, I won't stop her."
Mrs. Zhou Er was so angry that her nose was crooked: "Your mother has been dead for so many years, and we don't even know where her grave is. Where can we find her?"
Madam Bai looked at her and said:
"Yes! I almost forgot, when my mother died, she didn't even have a good coffin.
I knelt at your door and begged you for a good coffin. What did you say then?
She's already dead, why bother with all that? She deserves a good coffin, so just wrap her in a mat and bury her."
Mrs. Zhou Er's face froze and she said:
"Aren't these all just angry words said back then?
If Bai Wanwan really came into our Zhou family, we would definitely treat her well."
Madam Bai sneered:
"What kind of daydreaming are you doing?
My granddaughter is a princess personally appointed by the emperor. Do you think your family is worthy of her? You are just dreaming..."
After saying that, she pulled Bai Wanwan away.
Leaving the Zhou family staring blankly, Mrs. Zhou Er said:
"Hey! You really think being a princess is so great, when she's just a little girl from the countryside.
We haven't given up on her yet!"
Madam Zhou looked at her and said, "At the beginning, I told you not to be so extreme in doing things, but you refused to listen. Now she is extraordinary. Let's..."
Mrs. Zhou Er sneered:
"What's so special? It's just an adopted daughter. Maybe she doesn't even take her seriously. Let's take it slow!"
I really want Bai Wanwan. If she becomes the daughter-in-law of our Zhou family, then the hole in our Zhou family will be filled..."
The Zhou family's ancestors had accumulated a lot of wealth, including land and shops. They were originally one of the richest families in the area.
But in the hands of recent generations, life has become increasingly chaotic. Just the food, clothing and other expenses are full of extravagance.
When it comes to food, he no longer has eyes for ordinary chicken, duck, fish and meat, and has to find something exotic for every meal. In spring, it is tender bamboo shoots shipped from the south of the Yangtze River, stewed with newly hatched pigeons.
In summer, bird's nest and white fungus will not be served unless they are chilled, and even the sour plum soup for relieving the heat has to be seasoned with some aged Huadiao wine.
It is even worse in autumn and winter, when venison and bear paws become regular guests at banquets. The cost of a single family banquet is equivalent to the expenses of ordinary people for half a year.
Even if Bai Wanwan was a picky eater, she could tell that the Zhou family's food was special.
Mrs. Bai sneered:
“Over the years, the Zhou family has probably suffered terrible losses. None of them has any brains.
When my mother was in the Zhou family, she was good at doing business. The Zhou family was doing pretty well at that time.
There are dozens of manors alone, but I heard that there are only a few left of the Zhou family’s manors now.”
Bai Wanwan chuckled and said, "Not only the farm, but even the shops are gone. Moreover, he owes a lot of debts. He owes me 50 taels of silver alone."
"What? Has the Zhou family reached this point now?" Mrs. Bai did not expect this.
Bai Wanwan lends money at usury, which is one of the fastest ways to make money. She has connections and strength, so naturally it is not a big problem for her.
When the two returned home, they saw a large group of people gathered at the door. Sun Mei, Lin Dachang, Old Man Lin, Old Lady Lin, and Lin Dasheng were all there.
Sun Mei howled loudly, "Lin Yuan, get out here! Don't think I can't find you just because you're hiding in the mansion."
