The stars were picked up, and the five-and-a-half-year-old baby girl was beautiful, with soft, tender flesh.
The emaciated villagers in the starving year: ...
What did this child eat to...
"Hehe, good, you are both my honored guests, right? I remember you. Would you like to come upstairs to a private room for some snacks?" Madam Zhong smiled and looked at the two little girls who looked like little fairies in a very good mood.
Xingxing hesitated for a moment, then stammered in her little voice, "But my mom and aunt are here too, can we invite them to come along?"
"Of course we should invite them too, you are all my honored guests." Madam Zhong was thinking about where to find the Zhou family members to express her gratitude for their previous help.
In her eyes, the Zhou family were her benefactors. They saved her life the first time and saved her from spending the night in the wilderness the second time. Before that, she was busy finding a doctor in Shanshui Town to treat Master Zhong and Young Master Zhong, and she didn't have time to thank the Zhou family.
She was very grateful to the Zhou family, which is why she wanted to open a rouge shop in Lishan County. She already had several rouge shops in the prefectural city. The rouge shops were not Zhong family property, but her dowry, and she had always managed them herself.
Unexpectedly, she met her benefactor on her opening day. Naturally, she was overjoyed and quickly called the shopkeeper to bring Zhao Guihua and Zhao Guizhi upstairs.
The two men were bewildered when they were led to a private room upstairs. Seeing the little girl sitting at the table eating pastries like two little squirrels, they felt a sense of relief, but at the same time, their anger flared up, and they were about to explode and curse.
"My two sisters, please don't be angry. It was I who brought them upstairs. Speaking of which, I really have a connection with you. A big reason why I opened a shop in the county this time is because of you..." As soon as Madam Zhong spoke, Zhao Guihua and Zhao Guizhi noticed her and stared at her for a moment before recognizing her.
"Oh, it's you! What a coincidence! By the way, have you found your relative yet?" Zhao Guihua recalled that the old man had mentioned going to Shanshui Town to look for someone last time.
"We found her and brought her home. Thanks to your oxcart that day, I was able to get to town on the same day." Madam Zhong was very kind and had no airs of a wealthy lady. It was very comfortable to be around her.
After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Madam Zhong invited the two to sit down, indicating that she intended to have a deep conversation.
"So this rouge shop belongs to Grandma's family! You have a rouge shop in the prefectural city too? Your family must be very rich! Is the prefectural city fun? Is it much bigger than the county town? Grandma is so amazing!" Xingxing chattered away, praising Madam Zhong highly.
Madam Zhong was overjoyed. She covered her face with her handkerchief and laughed, "This child has such a sweet tongue and speaks so pleasingly. He's so endearing."
"The stars are amazing too." The stars never hesitate to boast, and they do it very naturally.
This quirky and mischievous behavior made everyone laugh.
