Zhou Dongwei was led into the small pavilion in the backyard. Qian Chunhua warmly asked her to sit down and hurriedly prepared tea.
Originally, it was thought that the Liu family had only sent a servant or a maid to take the medicine and leave, so the family had not made any preparations to receive guests.
Unexpectedly, it was Zhou Dongwei who came to visit in person.
Zhou Dongwei's purpose of this visit might not just be to get medicine.
After Qian Chunhua left, Zhou Dongwei began to look around the entire backyard carefully.
Previously, at the birthday celebration at the Dong Mansion, the Qian family’s generosity made her mistakenly believe that the Qian family had an extraordinary status.
However, what she saw with her own eyes now made her somewhat confused.
The entire courtyard was silent, and not even a maid or servant could be seen.
Zhou Dongwei wondered to herself whether the real situation of the Qian family was not as glorious as she thought.
"Madam Liu, please have some tea." Qian Chunhua gently held two cups of fragrant tea and walked into the pavilion.
Her voice interrupted Zhou Dongwei's thoughts.
The tea leaves used in those two cups of tea were not the tea from the space.
They were bought casually by Qian Chunhua before he traveled through time, and were worth no more than a hundred yuan per pound.
Even so, this tea from Zhou Dongwei is a rare traditional tea.
When Zhou Dongwei took a sip, the aroma of tea spread in her mouth, clear and mellow. A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, "This is tea."
Recently, the water supply in Liu Mansion has become tight due to drought, and even the chief secretary's family cannot afford to use it to make tea.
Zhou Dongwei hadn't tasted tea for a long time and couldn't help but drink a few sips.
Qian Chunhua gently placed a delicate little porcelain bottle on the stone table and said to Zhou Dongwei with a smile, "Madam Liu, this is the heart-saving pill that Lord Liu ordered yesterday."
Zhou Dongwei took the porcelain bottle and looked at it carefully. It was such a small bottle, but it cost more than 100 taels of silver. Zhou Dongwei's heart was bleeding.
However, she remembered her husband's instructions last night and dared not express any dissatisfaction.
"When angina pectoris attacks, just chew the pill first, then hold it under your tongue and hold it there. This will be more effective." Qian Chunhua said as he handed over a piece of paper filled with precautions for taking the medicine.
Zhou Dongwei took the paper and medicine bottle and put them carefully in her arms.
Then, she took out a silver note worth one hundred taels with a heartache and handed it to Qian Chunhua.
Last night Liu Yuwei specifically told her that this time she wouldn't dare to use the title of Mrs. Changshi to bully others.
Besides, these banknotes were extra money given by her husband and did not use the family's money. Therefore, although Zhou Dongwei was heartbroken, she could still bear it.
Qian Qi watched the two of them talking happily and didn't realize it was already noon.
According to Huanghualing customs, when guests come to visit, the host usually invites them to have lunch together. However, most guests will politely decline.
"Then stay and have lunch with us," Qian Li invited enthusiastically.
Zhou Dongwei readily agreed.
She knew in her heart that she needed to get closer to the Qian family, and staying for dinner would allow her to have more contact with the Qian family.
Qian Li was a little surprised by Zhou Dongwei's straightforwardness, but she quickly adjusted herself and responded with a smile: "It's just that our family only has simple meals, I'm afraid I can't entertain you well enough."
Ever since Qian Qi came to the city of Fu, she has learned some elegant words from old Madam Dong. At this moment, the tone of her voice really has some of the demeanor of a wealthy family.
Zhou Dongwei didn't take it seriously and said with a smile, "Sister Qian is too polite. It's a severe drought now, it's good to have something to eat."
She meant it.
㱗In this dry season, it is really good to have something to eat.
