Chapter 361
He softened his voice and said, "If anything like this happens again, just ask someone to tell me. As for that Aunt Yun... you'll have to take good care of her, Madam."
"I know."
Zheng remained indifferent to him, and Shen Jun, feeling awkward, left after finishing his business.
Madam Zhou came up to change Zheng's tea, and couldn't help but say, "Madam, the Marquis has come all this way, isn't it a bit too cold of you to say this?"
“Whether he’s cold or not, does he think he can divorce me?” Madam Zheng sneered. “No matter how warm I am to him, he will always favor Consort Chen. Since that’s the case, why should I flatter him?”
Speaking of Aunt Chen, Zhou Mama couldn't help but sigh: "All Aunt Chen can say is that she doesn't have children, but what does that have to do with you? Why don't you just talk it out?"
"It's a waste of breath."
Seeing Zheng's attitude, Zhou's mother didn't say anything more.
"Oh, by the way, send some things to your aunt, make it a bit more generous."
They've done such a big thing for the Marquis's mansion, it would be really unreasonable not to give them anything in return.
"yes."
——
When Zhou's mother arrived with generous gifts, Yunxi was drinking the tonic soup that Yunwan had brought. Yao Susu was also sitting beside her, and a maid from Liuyun Garden was standing in the courtyard. There was also a man she had never seen before... who was probably the doctor that Yunwan had invited.
"Auntie." Mama Zhou curtsied, gesturing for the maid to deliver the gift to Yunxi.
A table was covered with precious gifts, including a gold filigree hairpin inlaid with rubies and kingfisher feathers, a jade pendant with vine flowers, and a sandalwood dressing box. The sight was dazzling.
Yunxi's eyes widened: "This is...!"
“Auntie has accomplished a great thing for the Marquis’s mansion. These are gifts that Madam personally instructed to give to Auntie,” said Zhou Mama with a smile.
"But isn't this too generous?"
“It’s all Madam’s kind offer, Auntie, there’s no need to refuse,” said Madam Zhou, then looked at Doctor Tian, “How is Auntie’s health?”
Doctor Tian was initially dazzled by the gold and silver, but he snapped back to reality upon hearing Zhou Mama's voice: "Auntie's health is a bit weak, and she needs to take more tonics. Fortunately, the young mistress brings her some every day, which has helped to make up for it somewhat."
Yunxi couldn't help but exclaim, "The young mistress treats me so well, she almost brings me two meals a day! This child will surely grow up well!"
Hearing Yunxi's words, Zhou's mother frowned slightly.
She had given birth herself and had also helped Zheng give birth, so she knew that pregnant women shouldn't just take supplements indiscriminately.
Madam Zhou didn't show it on her face, but she kept it in mind: "Auntie, the things have been delivered, and this servant will go back now."
"Take care, Mom."
Watching Zhou's mother turn and leave, Yunxi scooped up a spoonful of nourishing soup and asked, "What were you about to say?"
Yao Susu chuckled twice and said, enunciating each word clearly, "I'm getting engaged!"
Upon hearing this, Yunxi's eyes crinkled with laughter: "Is it that Young Master Ying?"
Yao Susu nodded, her cheeks flushing: "It's him. I've already told my aunt, and she said he's a good person, so... we're going to settle on him."
Zheng has already written a letter to the Yao family and is just waiting for them to arrive so that she can prepare for her marriage.
Yao Susu's face was full of sweetness and longing, and Yunxi looked at her, genuinely happy for her as well.
