Chapter 519 Yao Yao

Zhou Shuren felt guilty, "The more capable you are, the more work you should do. The more capable you are, the more work you should do. Mr. Wang's ability has always been among the best."

Lord Wang felt relieved after hearing this, "Of course."

God knows how many methods he used to find the lost data. You wouldn't know until you checked. Once you checked, you would be shocked. There are lost registration data every year, and it is quite regular. There are some in every month. However, I really underestimated him.

Lord Wang looked at Lord Zhou with resentment again. He was really too busy recently and had no time to talk to his son, even though the son was still in his mother's belly. "Lord, if you have something to say, just tell me."

Zhou Shuren put down the information he was reading, his eyes deepened, this is the real ability of Lord Wang, it has only been a short time, but he has already sorted out a part clearly, "It's not official business, I just want to tell you that Shi Qing's marriage is not simple, Lord, please keep your eyes on it."

Lord Wang had always wondered why Lord Zhou had been teaching Shi Qing, the son of a merchant. Now, after hearing what Lord Zhou said and combining it with the data from the investigation, he understood. Lord Zhou had finally cleared up his confusion. "Lord, that's very kind of you."

The Wang family doesn't want to get involved in the emperor's calculations. His father said that the emperor has deep thoughts in the sea. Since he has no ambition, it is best to stay at peace. The way for the Wang family to survive is to stay at peace!

Zhou Shuren pointed at the information and said, "Master Wang, please continue with your work."

Lord Wang sighed. It was really tiring. There were still many things to check, and the more he checked, the less he could ask for help. It was really annoying. "Sir, please go slowly."

At Zhou's residence, Zhulan asked the housekeeper uncertainly, "Who did you say was visiting?"

Steward Ding bowed his head, "The second young lady of Yaohou Mansion is here to visit the county lord and his young lady."

Zhulan combined what Su Xuan had told her and concluded that Second Miss Yao was arrogant because she had the capital to be arrogant. Apart from her ordinary appearance, she was not stupid. So it was interesting that she came to visit Zhou's house. She did not think it was just a simple visit.

Zhu Lan said, "Please ask someone to come in, and then send someone to inform the county lord and the young lady."

Butler Ding said respectfully, "Yes."

Butler Ding turned around and walked out, thinking as he walked that the greatest luck in his life was being sold to the Zhou family. The people who came to visit here were all people of noble status!

At Zhulan's side, Mrs. Song has already gone downstairs to serve tea and fruit. Pinggang is really a good place. As long as you have money, you can get a lot of rare things. At least Zhulan can eat whatever she wants.

Miss Yao was followed by many people entering the room. Zhulan counted them and saw two maids and four servants, each holding gifts.

Miss Yao Er had no title, but she still had to greet him. "Meet the Honourable Lady."

"Second Miss, please get up quickly."

As she spoke, Zhulan personally helped Miss Yao up.

Miss Yao Er smiled and said, "I'm sorry for disturbing you today. This is a gift for Mr. Zhou and Madam Gong. Please help me."

Zhulan looked at the luxurious gift box in silence, then smiled and said, "Second Miss is so polite. Please take a seat."

Miss Yao heaved a sigh of relief. Her visit today was indeed very presumptuous. Her eldest brother did not approve of this visit, but she still insisted on coming.

At this time, Su Xuan and Xue Han arrived together. Su Xuan was the county lord, so Miss Yao Er still had to greet her, "County lord."

Su Xuan smiled, "Second Miss is too polite."

Xue Han greeted, "Hello, Miss Yao Er."

"Hello, Miss Zhou."

Miss Yao Er likes to look into people's eyes when she speaks. She saw that Miss Zhou did not look down on her appearance. Her eyes were very clear and the smile on her lips became a little more. In fact, she had a good impression of County Lord Anhe, even though she had not met him many times. She liked County Lord Anhe's flamboyance.

Miss Yao Er continued, "I brought gifts for you two."

As she spoke, Miss Yao opened the boxes held by the maid, and first opened the smaller box, which contained rouge and powder. "This is a new product just released in the capital. I brought it here because I thought the county lord would like it."

Su Xuan picked it up, opened it and took a look. She really liked it and the taste was also what she liked. "Thank you."

Miss Yao Er opened the largest box and said, "This piano is for Miss Zhou. I hope you like it."

To be honest, when she was preparing the gift, this gift was given to her by her eldest brother, and she didn't ask too many questions, even if she felt strange. She had no hostility towards her eldest brother. Relatively speaking, their private friendship was still okay, at least he would give her jewelry gifts on her birthday.

Relatively speaking, the mother was not wrong. The life in the harem of a powerful family was also for her and her brother. The consequences of not fighting would be more terrible. Only by fighting could she get what she wanted.

Xue Han looked at the piano strangely. This was the piano she liked. "Did Miss Yao choose this piano?"

That’s not right. Miss Yao was in the capital at that time!

Miss Yao squinted her eyes. It was interesting that Miss Zhou knew this violin. "Ah, I asked my elder brother to help me decide. I originally wanted to change the violin. I didn't have a suitable gift when I came to visit, so I brought it here. I hope Miss Zhou doesn't mind."

Now that the explanation was clear, Xue Han naturally didn't mind. She was just afraid that it was the prince who decided it. "Thank you, Miss Yao Er."

What kind of person is Zhulan? She can tell at a glance if someone is lying in front of her. This zither is definitely not Miss Yao's. Zhulan drank the scented tea and her mind was open. Maybe Prince Yao has different feelings for Xuehan. But then she thought, she has never met him. In the end, she could only think it was a coincidence. She guessed that Miss Yao really didn't prepare a gift.

Zhulan saw that the three of them were silent again. Well, they felt uncomfortable with her, the elder, around. "The scenery inside the mansion is still nice. Suxuan, you and Xuehan take Miss Yao to walk around."

Su Xuan, "Yes."

After Zhulan and the other three went out, they looked at the gift that Miss Yao had brought. It was really impressive, a pair of top-quality jade bracelets and an inkstone. She didn't know much about the inkstone, but based on the Yao family's generous nature, it must be very valuable.

Zhulan touched the bracelets. They were rare. She said to Mrs. Song, "Put the bracelets away and put them in Xuehan's dowry. Put the inkstone away as well!"

There are quite a few inkstones in the house. It is probably because there are many educated people in the Zhou family. All the men in the family, except the eldest and second sons, are educated. In addition, Zhou Shuren believes that books are the most precious, and he has been constantly buying books to increase the collection of the Zhou family. Therefore, all the gifts are given to this kind of people.

Mrs. Song closed the box and touched the jade bracelet, thinking to herself that it was a rare treasure that was hard to find even in the palace. The Yao family was really too wealthy. She felt that this should be reported.

Zhulan took the little son from Liuya's arms and said, "Are you awake now? Are you here to look for your mother?"

The young man waved his hands, "Ah."

Zhulan kissed her son's chubby face and said, "You, besides sleeping, you eat. Look at you, you are as fat as a pig. You must have been born in the wrong zodiac sign. You should not be a horse!"

The little boy didn't understand and just thought his mother was playing with him, so he waved his hands and said, "Ah, oh."

Zhulan smiled cheerfully. Only when she was with her son did she not have to think about anything!

In Xue Han's courtyard, Xue Han took the cake from Liu Li's hand and said, "Miss Yao Er, try it. This is a cake that is unique to the Zhou Mansion."

Miss Yao Er had indeed never seen it before. She picked it up and tasted a piece, and her eyes lit up. She was not a person who liked to eat sweets because she was afraid of getting fat. She was not good-looking to begin with, but she was pretty in front of her, and she didn't want to get even uglier. "It's not very sweet, but it tastes good, and the texture is also very soft and sticky."

Xue Han smiled, "My eldest sister-in-law's specialty cake, our whole family likes it, if you like it, eat more."

Second Miss Yao knew about the Zhou residence. Of course, she heard it all from her eldest brother. She thought to herself that the Zhou family's eldest wife was a great cook. While eating, she looked around the house. The house was not luxurious, but it was decorated in a warm and simple way. Green plants could be seen everywhere in the house, and there was a faint smell of fruit, but there was no incense that officials' daughters liked.
