"Hmm," Mrs. Tang nodded, and then withdrew her hand after smelling the tea. "I don't drink Longjing tea."
The maid put the teapot back on the table with an awkward smile and asked, "What kind of tea does the Madam like? I'll make it for you."
"No, no, it's not a bother." Mrs. Tang said quickly.
In this moment, Grand Tutor Yu finished practicing Tai Chi and walked into the front hall with great energy. He heard that it was the Prime Minister's wife who came, but he didn't expect that it was actually Tang Cuiyan herself.
"Grand Master Yu."
Mrs. Tang stood up and saluted first.
"Hey, sit down, sit down. You are a first-rank lady conferred by the Queen Mother. There is no need to be so polite, little girl!" Mrs. Tang was not used to this title, but in the eyes of Grand Tutor Yu, she was just a little girl. Although Prime Minister Tang was not on good terms with him in the court, Tang Cuiyan was not.

At that time, Grand Tutor Yu was on good terms with her father and was a minister trusted by the Chinese mother, so he was sent to bring Tang Cuiyan back.
When she first met Grand Tutor Yu, she was only sixteen years old. After that, she got married and had children, and she rarely had the opportunity to see Grand Tutor Yu again.

"It's a pity that General Tang left so early. He didn't even have time to take a good look at you."
The topic suddenly turned here, and Tang Cuiyan smiled bitterly. Master Yu must have thought of his father when he saw her. After all, they were such good brothers back then.
Tang Cuiyan said: "No, maybe father is watching us from heaven now."
Master Yu took a sip of tea and laughed at her: "You little girl! I hope he can see that you are living such a good life now, and feel relieved."
General Tang had only one daughter, Tang Cuiyan. Before she was ten years old, General Tang loved her very much, holding her in his mouth for fear that she would melt, and holding her in his hands for fear that she would fall.
