Dong Yuzhen showed Mrs. Lin what Lin Zhu had given her, and said that Lin Zhu would send some watermelons every ten days in the future. "I have long heard that the watermelons in Linjia Village are good, and Muyue Trading Company also sent some.
, but..." Mrs. Lin did not continue, but Dong Yuzhen had already
Understand, I must have sent most of them to Liu's house. "Mom, it doesn't matter. When Sister Xiaozhu's watermelon arrives, we won't let them taste a bite, and Mom can also do facial care with me. For Sister Xiaozhu,
That’s what you said, haven’t you seen that even Mother Zhao’s face looks young?”
Mrs. Lin was busy looking at the changes in her daughter, but she didn't notice. When Dong Yuzhen mentioned it, she carefully looked at the changes in Zhao's mother, then looked at Shuitao's face, and nodded lightly, "Not bad.
, it seems that your faces have improved a lot." "Slaves, it's all thanks to the eldest lady.
"Mother Zhao bowed and saluted. "Madam, if you don't mind the crudeness of this method, you can give it a try. The watermelon at Miss Zhu's place is very different. The best watermelon in Linjiacun can't be compared to hers.
B. The eldest lady drinks a glass of watermelon juice every night and feels refreshed the next morning."
"Yes, mother, you also come with me. Within ten days, I will keep your face white and rosy." Dong Yuzhen patted her chest in assurance, making Mrs. Lin laugh. "Okay, okay, just listen to our Zhen'er
Yes, if it doesn’t work, you won’t be able to eat watermelon as a punishment.”
"Then I can definitely eat until I'm full. I've experienced it myself." Dong Yuzhen proudly raised her chin.
After saying these words, Dong Yuzhen told Mrs. Lin about Zhou Dalang's visit to force him to marry him, "He is quite brave." Mrs. Lin sneered, "I just did a few things for him.
She won her favor." Mrs. Lin rubbed the jade bracelet on her wrist with her hand, "Don't worry, it's okay. Even if she finds out, it won't happen. Your father won't do anything to Xiaozhu." Mu Yue.
Dong Jisheng cannot be offended at the trading house. Mrs. Lin returned to the capital during the Chinese New Year and heard some rumors. It is said that the boss behind Muyue Trading Company may be from some royal family. Although it is not confirmed, it is not something that a small county magistrate like Dong Jisheng can offend.
Of course, this could not be said to Dong Yuzhen openly. After hearing what Mrs. Lin said, Dong Yuzhen felt relieved. In her eyes, her mother's words were never wrong.
Although Mrs. Liu pretended to bring a plate of watermelon that night, saying that Dong Yuzhen had gone to the countryside and could not eat such good food, so she brought it here specially for her to try. But the next day, she saw someone brought ten
If you only have watermelon, Ms. Liu will be stupid
Liu was stunned, and kept asking the servants to ask if the person who sent the message was wrong, and it should be sent to her instead of Dong Yuzhen. It was not until the servant who reported the message looked at it three or four times and confirmed that it was really the wrong message. Liu
Shi was angry in the room unwillingly.
Although many families in Linjia Village have grown watermelons, compared to the market where supply exceeds demand, there are still not many watermelons in Song County, and of course there are not too many in the magistrate's office. Muyue Trading Company gave a hundred of them, but Liu
The family is giving rewards, giving banquets, and spending time with others.
It cost a lot. She saw someone sending watermelons to Dong Yuzhen, and she also found out that ten were sent every ten days. She was already jealous. She originally wanted to ask the county magistrate to send more watermelons from Dong Yuzhen, it would be best
I took it all. But Dong Jisheng was with Mrs. Lin.
There was no way to speak there. How could he do something like robbing his daughter? "Master, it's not good for her to eat too much watermelon as a child. Is it for her own sake?" Mrs. Liu was tired of Dong Jisheng's coquettishness. Mrs. Liu was just like that.
I want to compare with Mrs. Lin, although Mrs. Lin
She was not very favored by Dong Jisheng, but Mrs. Liu always felt inferior to her every time she saw her. Even though she was now an equal wife and her children were legitimate sons and daughters, she just wanted to have a hard time with Mrs. Lin.
, so they want to grab whatever is there.
"Okay, it's not embarrassing enough for you to ask me to be a father and go to my daughter's place to ask for food. Besides, you have all the watermelons sent by Muyue Trading Company. Just be satisfied." Dong Jisheng doted on Mrs. Liu and her again.
Dong Yuzhen was also his daughter. Although she often favored one and the other, she couldn't do anything too obvious. Liu had no choice but to let it go.
"Hehe, mother, how are you?" Dong Yuzhen didn't know that Mrs. Liu was inciting Dong Jisheng to take the watermelon from her. Even if she knew, she wouldn't let him go. At this time, she and Mrs. Lin had just finished the watermelon skin mask.
"Well, after washing my face, I feel that my face is much moisturized, but it's not as good as you said. However, this watermelon is indeed delicious, even better than the one sent by Muzuki Trading Company." Mrs. Lin looked at the mirror.
Look left and right.
"Sister Xiaozhu doesn't have a watermelon field in the village. Her field is planted with wolfberry trees. By the way, mother, she also asked me to bring you a jar of wolfberry wine, saying that you can drink a small cup of it every night.
." Dong Yuzhen asked Shuitao to get the wine.
"Wolfberry wine?" Mrs. Lin became interested. "Bring it to me and have a look." When Shuitao brought the wine over, she poured another glass. Mrs. Lin saw the pure color of the wolfberry sprinkled and the fragrant aroma of the wine. She couldn't help but take it.
She picked up the glass and took a sip, "Well, this wine is really good. I haven't had such an authentic wolfberry wine for a long time." Mrs. Lin put down the glass, her eyes a little blurry.
, couldn't help but recall the beginning, "When my mother was not married, she often watched her mother drinking this wolfberry wine. I asked curiously at that time, but she just smiled but did not explain. Later, I saw my sister-in-law drinking it too, so
Later I learned that women who often eat wolfberry and drink wolfberry wine can keep people young. Later, I also found some wolfberry wine, but none of them could compare with the taste of this wine."
Mrs. Lin put down her wine glass and sighed slightly, "Fortunately, my Zhen'er has better luck than my mother. When I meet such a good sister, I not only have a lot of good things in my hand, but I am also willing to share the wealth with you. Zhen'er, I must treat your sister Xiaozhu well."
ah."
"I know, mother," Dong Yuzhen nodded. "By the way, did my brother send him some watermelon? He will definitely not be able to eat it." Dong Wenbo has moved to the outer courtyard, although it is not like them.
He is always angry with Mrs. Liu, but Dong Jisheng doesn't pay attention to him, so he naturally gets less good things. "Send it over, and your brother also praised you for making a good sister.
He also took advantage of it." When Mrs. Lin talked about her son, her face lit up. Dong Wenbo was very proud, and he had always far surpassed Dong Wenyuan and Dong Wenhao academically. "Mom, sister Xiaozhu made watermelon chicken.
It's also very delicious. I even asked Mother Zhao to learn from it. How about trying it tomorrow? Invite dad to come over and eat together." Dong Yuzhen happily suggested.
"Okay, just do what you want. It's a family banquet. Then you can invite your father and your brother over." Mrs. Lin patted Dong Yuzhen's head and agreed with a smile. Dong Yuzhen returned to the house happily, following her as she walked.
Shuitao explained what to prepare tomorrow.
"Madam, please rest too." After seeing Dong Yuzhen off, Mother Zhao also served Mrs. Lin to rest. "Mother Zhao, thanks to Wenbo and Zhen'er by my side, my life has not been in vain." Mrs. Lin said with emotion.
."Madam, what are you saying?
, the master has just been confused by others, so he didn't realize how good the madam is. If you wait and see again in a few days, the one who will definitely win over you. The madam's ability to run the house is beyond the reach of even a flatterer, so be proud first.
It’s only a few days.” Zhao’s mother comforted her.
Dong Wenbo and Dong Wenyuan took the scholar examination together. Because Dong Wenbo suddenly had a stomachache that day and failed in the examination room, Mrs. Lin was deprived of her housekeeper rights by Dong Jisheng on the grounds that she was neglecting her son and gave it to Liu instead. Although Mrs. Lin was suspicious of the matter
It was Mr. Liu who instigated others to do it, but there is no evidence at all.
Yes, although she secretly hated her, there was nothing she could do about it. Seeing Liu's arrogant appearance after the housekeeper, Mrs. Lin avoided tit-for-tat and did not confront him. At present, the government office was under Liu's control, and there were loopholes.
There are a lot of things that can happen, and without Mrs. Lin taking action, the housekeeper's rights will return to her sooner or later.
In Zhang Mansion in the capital, old doctor Zhang was eating the watermelon brought by the housekeeper. He remembered that when he was in Linjia Village, Lin Zhu sent it to his home with a smile. He sighed in his heart, "I wonder how Zhu Ya is doing now?" "Don't worry, sir.
With Miss Zhu's ability, she will definitely do well. Didn't she write last time that she had built a new house?" Butler Zhang comforted Old Doctor Zhang.
"Yes, that girl always treats herself well, eats well and drinks well." Old Doctor Zhang smiled, "Now, thanks to her, I can eat this special watermelon at home.
Yes. I heard that Muzuki Trading Company is going crazy?" "I heard that, since Muzuki Trading Co., Ltd.
Since the store's watermelons have been put on the market, the supply of top-grade watermelons has exceeded demand, and the special watermelons have not been put on the market at all, but have been divided up by several princes. I heard that King Qi took the most, mainly because he sent it to the palace." Zhang
The housekeeper told old doctor Zhang what he had learned.
"Haha, this is what it should be." Old Doctor Zhang smiled. "Master, the second master wants to take some watermelons from the village to give away. I wonder if..." Butler Zhang said cautiously. "Humph, I want to go there again.
Which minister's house can't send it to Lin Shangshu's house, so let him find a way out again?" Old doctor Zhang became very angry when he mentioned his second son.
"This little guy doesn't know." Butler Zhang shook his head.
"Don't worry about him, just tell me what I said. No one can touch the watermelons in the village. You can eat them, but you can't give them away." Mu Qiyue's village also produces special watermelons, and he doesn't want to expose it.
Of course, it should not attract attention here. "The same goes for the dishes in Zhuangzi. You can just eat them at home. You can't send them out, and no one can tell you."
Butler Zhang listened to Old Doctor Zhang's order and went out to do it.
Only old doctor Zhang was left alone in the room, wondering what he was thinking. After hearing what Butler Zhang said, Zhang Weize, the second master of the Zhang family, was very angry. He didn't understand why he was not allowed to use such good things at home. Although Zhuangzi said
It's my father's personal property, not public, but this is too unkind.
