Chapter 728 730. Reading the Letter
Gu Yuanjin saw that they didn't trust him, but he didn't get angry. He slowly handed the letters to them and said, "If there's anything you don't understand, go find Mr. Zhou."
After receiving the letter, everyone couldn't wait to go home. They said hello to Li Cuicui and went out one by one.
Li Cuicui suddenly slapped her thigh, chased to the door, and shouted at them, "We have letters to send back the day after tomorrow. If you have anything to tell me, remember to send it to me as soon as possible, and then we can send it together."
After hearing this news, everyone rushed over again, "Aunt Dashi, are you telling the truth?"
If they could communicate like this, then parents like them would have nothing to worry about. They would be able to get news every now and then, which is better than anything else.
"Of course, can I really lie to you about this?
If you could hurry up and deliver the letter as soon as possible, I'm afraid it might be left behind."
Li Cuicui likes to prepare everything in advance, for fear of forgetting something in the rush.
Tugen's mother said hurriedly, "I'll ask the child's father to write a letter to Mr. Zhou later. It will definitely not delay your business."
Others also hurried to express their opinions, fearing that it would be too late and the children would not receive their replies.
Li Cuicui returned to the yard, and Gu Yuanjin finally read both letters. In fact, they were both words of greeting, mainly telling their families that they had arrived safely and not to worry.
"It's not easy to be away from home. They must only report good news and not bad news." Li Cuicui saw that there were still a few unopened letters on the table. "The rest are written by our own children, right? Why don't you read them too?"
Gu Yuanjin refused directly this time, "This is written by the children to their parents, so let's wait until they come before opening it.
As an uncle, I will not interfere in other people's affairs.
Mother, didn’t my seventh brother’s wife bring some dried mushrooms from Yi Province this time? Why don’t we divide the things first? I can also take some back when I go back later.”
Gu Yuanjin glanced at the pile of specialties. If they were not good things, his seventh brother's wife would never send them home.
I have eaten so much dried seafood before, this time I want to change the taste with some mountain products.
There were recipes for several dishes in the letter just now, and he couldn't wait.
"You've been thinking about food all day long. I'm going to give the food to you this time. Don't think about me anymore in the future.
I don’t know what’s wrong with you brothers. You used to stuff everything into your mouths, but now that you’re older, you’ve become more picky about food.”
"Weren't we poor before? We couldn't eat anything even if we wanted to. Isn't life all about food and clothing? Now that conditions are finally better, if I don't eat, how much will I be able to eat after my teeth fall out?"
Li Cuicui glared at him, "You have so many crooked ideas, even if you have good things you can't create them so freely.
Everything has to be planned carefully. If Lao Qi and the others don't give you these things, will you not eat?"
Gu Yuanjin walked behind his mother and patted her back, "Mom, our family is well off now, so don't be so stingy.
Eat when you’re ready, drink when you’re ready. Can’t we, your sons, support you, your mother?
Look at the things in your warehouse, they are almost full, but you are still reluctant to use them up. Are you going to wait until the things break before clearing them out?
This is not only a waste of natural resources, but also an apology for the filial piety that Lao Qi and his family sent from so far away. "
Li Cuicui was at a loss for words for a moment. She also knew that the idea of only earning money and not spending it was wrong. She had been poor for nearly her entire life, and she would always feel anxious if she didn't have something in her hands.
She has been frugal all her life, so if you expect her to spend lavishly, she really can't do it.
"Okay, I can't eat so much, but I still have your help. What did you like from me? Go get it yourself later."
Rather than letting it go bad and being used to feed pigs in the future, it is better to give some to the family’s descendants.
"Mom, you misunderstood again. I just wanted you and Dad to eat more good food.
Old Seven always has our share, so how could we covet your things?
Don’t just feed my dad bland food, he still needs to be nourished.”
Gu Yuanjin's voice became lower and lower as he spoke, and he glanced at Li Cuicui cautiously.
Li Cuicui rolled her eyes at him and said, "I'm not being harsh on your father. I've asked the doctor and he really can't eat some things. It's just that he always thinks I'm being harsh on him.
I know he complained to you privately, but don’t you ever think about whether he can eat the food you gave him?
He wants to eat delicious food every day, but can his body bear it..."
Gu Yuanjin, "..."

In addition to caring about the progress of the shop construction over there, Jin Qianqian also asked her subordinates to purchase the dry goods from the mountains.
She has simply formed a new escort team here. The newly established escort agency is bound to lack some trust and will not receive many jobs.
Jin Qianqian was not in a hurry. She had so many businesses under her control that even if the escort agency only did its own work, it would still be busy enough.
She planned to collect all the mountain products here, transport them to Shangjing or all over the country, and sell them in her own shop, or send them to various Tianfu restaurants, so that she could have more new dishes.
But she has more important things to do today, as the three older girls around her are all going out tomorrow.
The dowries that had already been prepared for them were handed over to them.
Each person contributed 100 taels as a deposit to the box, and also received two sets of headgear and some cloth.
At the beginning of spring, the beginning of autumn, and the beginning of winter, the three of them came to express their gratitude at the same time. Long before today, Mingyue and the others had been trained. Now, the four of them have become the Madam's right-hand men.
"You will have families in the future. In addition to helping me, you must also manage your small family well." Looking at these young girls who were only 29 years old and were about to enter a new life, Jin Qianqian couldn't help but say a few more words of advice.
"If you feel wronged in your husband's family and you are right, I will help you make the decision."
The three of them knelt down together at the beginning of spring and kowtowed heavily several times. They believed that meeting the lady was the greatest luck in their lives.
Not only did they learn a lot of skills, but they also went from being helpless orphans to having family and friends.
"Don't say thank you anymore. You're going to be the bride tomorrow and you can't make yourself look bad.
Go down and have a rest early, live a good life and your wife will be happy."
The new maid Mingyue and the others who were standing beside them hurried over and helped Lichun and the others up.
"Sister Lichun, this is a happy event. Tomorrow, the sisters must go over and ask for a glass of wedding wine." Mingyue supported Lichun and said with a smile.
"Welcome all sisters," Lichun's face flushed red. This time, they were all getting married at the same time, and the big kitchen in the mansion would help them prepare several tables of banquets. This was also a respect given by the master.
