Chapter 340 Take it back
Qiu Yan was a little reserved at first, but seeing how easy it was to get along with her three uncles, three aunts, and her sisters, the smile on her face became more and more intense.
She took the gifts in her arms to the maid to put them away, and then said with a smile: "When I came, I was going to bring Ping'er over, but the little guy was sleeping soundly, so I thought about bringing him over later."
Liu Zhihua heard this and hurriedly said as a visitor: "Oh, I don't dare. The full moon is still two days away. Don't hold it out and blow it. We can wait until the full moon banquet to meet again."
Bao Ya took her sister and sat down, and also smiled and echoed: "Sister Qiu Yan, don't be in a hurry. If we want to see it, we will follow you to the room to see it later."
Wang Zhuangzhi's rugged face looked naive, and he nodded and said: "Yes, yes, the baby is too young, so it's better to be cautious."
Qiu Yan smiled softly, "Okay, then I'll go to the house after lunch and have a look."
"My nickname is Ping'er. Can I take my nickname?" Liu Zhihua asked.
When Ying Niang mentioned her grandson, she looked doting on her face and said with a smile: "I've taken it, and his name will be Fang Zhuo."
Liu Zhihua recently learned an idiom referring to Zhuo from Jiaojiao, and she quickly said with a smile: "The word Zhuo is good, and the talent is outstanding."
Yingniang smiled when she heard this and said in surprise: "Zhihua is becoming more and more powerful. This idiom has a very good meaning."
Liu Zhihua looked embarrassed and laughed in a low voice: "Now that I don't have to work in the fields and have nothing to do at home all day long, I learn to read from Jiaojiao. Over time, I can recognize a few."
"This relationship is so good. It won't be too late to learn how to read and write..."
The two families were chatting.
Suddenly, Jian Jia walked in at the door carrying a large food box.
Liu Zhihua waved after seeing it, "Hey, Jianjia is back, come quickly."
Jian Jia was about to walk towards the lady. When he heard this, he walked straight to the lady, saluted and said, "Madam, I got the things back."
"Okay, you little girl is really awesome."
Liu Zhihua praised and smiled as she took the food box, handed it to Yingniang beside her, and said: "Yingniang, please see if it belongs to you."
Jian Jia then retreated behind the young lady. Jiaojiao poured a cup of tea from the maid Xin, gave it to Jian Jia with a smile, and whispered: "Jian Jia is tired from running, take a drink of water and rest."
Jianjia's heart warmed up, and she quickly shook her head and said to the young lady: "I am not thirsty, and I am not tired at all if I do the easy things. Young lady, please remember that your cup cannot be shared with others."
Jiaojiao pointed to the other cup next to her, her eyes were bright and she said with a smile: "I specially asked for one more, not to share a drink, drink it quickly."
Jianjia hesitated for a moment before taking it, secretly avoiding everyone and drinking it all in one gulp. After drinking, she blushed and smiled at the lady.
The refreshing tea moisturized the slightly dry throat, Jian Jia's face was smiling, and her heart felt indescribable warmth.
In all her life, no one has ever treated her as sincerely as Miss Baojiao. It is not a relationship of superiority and inferiority, but just like a family member.
"Mom, what are you doing?"
Qiu Yan looked at the big food box in confusion, and then at the little maid opposite, wondering what was going on.
"The snacks and tea I prepared for your third aunt and her family were taken away by Aunt Lin. Thanks to the delicate maid, they recovered them."
While explaining to her daughter, Ying Niang opened the food box and took a look.
On the first floor are two plates of exquisite snacks, namely hibiscus cake and osmanthus cake, as well as a bottle of fruit tea with a light fragrance.
On the next floor, there is an exquisitely arranged fruit plate, including fresh large purple grapes, longans, lychees and plums. Another plate is full of cut watermelon and cantaloupe segments. Next to the plate are several silver
skewer, and a bowl of ice cubes in the corner to keep the inside cool.
There are some candies and preserved fruits in the beautifully woven shallow baskets on the last layer, and there are nuts, peanuts and melon seeds in the other baskets. The variety is very rich.
Yingniang looked at the things she had prepared with the money and almost fell into someone else's mouth. She couldn't help but said a little annoyed: "It's the ingredients I bought. Aunt Lin is really good at saving trouble. She took it and ran away without saying anything."<
/p>
Liu Zhihua also looked over and said, "It looks neat and tidy. No one should have touched it."
Jian Jia stood up, saluted and replied: "My servant intercepted her on the road, but she was not sent to the courtyard yet, and she was never touched."
Liu Zhihua nodded after hearing this, "That's good."
The more Qiu Yan listened, the more confused she became. She pursed her lips and asked, "Mom, what's going on? Did Aunt Lin take it by mistake, or did she do it on purpose?"
Ying Niang saw that her daughter was wearing thick clothes and a hat. She had just given birth, and she really didn't want to talk to her daughter about such embarrassing things, so she smiled and waved and said: "The delicate little maid has helped to change it back, so she
Don’t mention her anymore.”
Qiu Yan choked. Seeing her acting like this, it was not difficult to guess that Aunt Lin must have done it on purpose.
She mentally recorded the incident and still had a smile on her face.
"Jiaojiao, Baoya, come here quickly and try this fruit from the south. The taste is very different from the fruit from the north..."
Qiu Yan was pretending to be worried. Seeing that her mother and her third uncle and three aunt were talking well, she turned to the maid next to her and whispered: "Go and ask what happened in the morning. Say hello to the kitchen and ask the cook to make some northern food."
Famous dishes and prepare some sweets that my daughter’s family loves.”
"Yes." The maid responded in a low voice, and then left towards the door.

front yard,
A man wearing a green robe came over, his hair tied with a golden crown, his features were upright and serious, his eyes were bright, and he pursed his lips and asked: "Master will arrive tomorrow. Is the guest room at home ready?"
The housekeeper behind him nodded quickly and replied: "Sir, it was packed two days ago. The bed, bedding and toiletries are all new. The maid burns incense and cleans every day. It will definitely satisfy the distinguished guests."
Fang Xinyu nodded with satisfaction and was about to go to the backyard to visit his wife Heping'er.
Suddenly, a woman wearing Tibetan clothes came over and stopped her. She saluted nervously and said, "Sir, the old lady has a severe headache just now. Please come over."
Fang Xinyu frowned slightly. This was already the first time that Yueniang had had a headache. She had asked countless doctors and famous doctors to prescribe medicine, but it didn't work at all.
The woman stole a glance at the uncle, gritted her teeth and continued: "The old lady was in severe pain and kept calling the uncle's name. She didn't let the slaves come to invite the uncle. The slaves sneaked out."
Fang Xinyu glanced at the road ahead, turned to the other side helplessly, and said calmly: "Lead the way."
The mother-in-law looked happy and hurriedly led the way.
When Butler Yang saw this, his eyes flashed, and he followed the uncle directly to the old lady's residence without saying anything.

A loft facing south,
The newly built attic is elegantly decorated, and an open-air viewing platform is built on the second floor. The beams in the door and courtyard are all made of nanmu. The plaque in front of the courtyard door reads: Luoyanju.
Aunt Lin was standing at the door looking at her. When she saw Mrs. Liu bringing the uncle, she hurried in to report.
In the yard,
