Chapter 109: Nanny Zhou Arrives
Chapter 109: Nanny Zhou Arrives
Nanny Zhou frowned and pointed at the valuables in the courtyard. "This was awarded by the Emperor, this was awarded by the Empress Dowager, this was prepared for you by the General before he died, and this was left to you by the Madam... You can't give these away! This, this, this... They are all priceless, how can you give them away so easily?
"Besides, Miss Yun Wu belongs to Shun'an Marquis's Mansion. Her dowry will be taken care of by the people of Shun'an Marquis' Mansion. Do you really need to prepare her dowry?"
Princess Anyang glared at Nanny Zhou in displeasure. "What Shun'an Marquis's Mansion prepared was what Shun'an Marquis's Mansion prepared. What I prepared was what I prepared. I treat Yunshu as my own sister. What's wrong with preparing a little dowry for her? Besides, I don't need this little thing."
Nanny Zhou frowned and advised again: "County Lady, you should stop here. Even if you send so many valuable items to them, Shun'an Marquis Mansion will not accept them."
Hearing this, Princess Anyang immediately smiled triumphantly, "Don't worry, Madam. I told Madam Rong before that I would prepare some dowry for Yunshu. She didn't object. It shows that she agreed with me giving Yunshu a dowry."
After these words were spoken, Nanny Zhou's face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.
Shun'an Marquis Mansion is really shameless! Once they stick to the county lady, it's like a dog-skin plaster, and they can't tear it off! Now it's even worse, they actually dare to reach out for the county lady's things! Next, are they going to make the county lady's mansion their Shun'an Marquis Mansion as well?
It was just that the county princess was naive by nature and was blinded by the hypocrisy of Shun'an Marquis' Mansion!
It seems like it's time for her to go to Shun'an Marquis Mansion.
Madam Zhou was still angry, but Princess Anyang began to reason with her heartlessly: "Okay, Madam, these are all external things. They cannot be brought with you when you are born and cannot be taken with you when you die. What's the point of keeping them? I don't need these things anyway. However, giving these things to Yunshu will make Yunshu's dowry more beautiful, and it will also make the Duke of Anguo look at her more highly. Why not do it?"
Seeing that Princess Anyang was determined to give her best things to the fifth young lady of Shun'an Marquis's Mansion as a dowry, Nanny Zhou was furious, but she knew that the source of the rage was still in Shun'an Marquis's Mansion.
So, he did not refute it at the moment, but just said: "Since it is a kind gesture from the county lady, I will not stop you. However, I have to deliver these things personally. They are all valuable items and cannot be knocked or damaged."
"Then I'll have to trouble Madam Zhou." Princess Anyang picked up another booklet with a smile, "Now that I have the big stuff, I still have to pick out a few decent headgear for Yun Shu..."
The next day, Nanny Zhou took Tingqin and Ruhua to deliver something to Shun'an Marquis' Mansion.
There were five carriages carrying large ornaments and small boxes. If you didn't know, you would think someone was moving.
As soon as the carriage stopped in front of the marquis's mansion, the doorman hurried up to inquire about the situation. After seeing Tingqin and Ruhua getting off the carriage, the doorman quickly sent someone to the inner courtyard to pass on the message.
"Miss Tingqin, Miss Ruhua, you two are rare guests. It has been a long time since we last saw you two come to visit our residence with the county lady."
The gatekeeper had a smiling face, always smiling at everyone he met, and his memory was also better than that of ordinary people. Ruhua and Tingqin had only come to the Marquis's mansion once with the Princess Anyang. But the gatekeeper still remembered them firmly.
As soon as he saw the two people getting off the carriage, he sent someone inside to pass the message and then greeted them with a sincere smile.
Seeing a middle-aged woman dressed as a maid helping the two people get off the carriage, the steward bowed politely and asked, "May I ask what is this lady's name?"
"This is Madam Zhou from our house. She is here to deliver the dowry to the fifth young lady." Ruhua replied to the steward with a smile.
"Madam Zhou, you've worked hard on the journey. Please come in." The steward smiled and personally led the person in.
Madam Zhou didn't even look at the steward, and walked into the mansion with an air of dignity. Her aura was even greater than that of the Princess of Anyang County.
Ruhua hurriedly followed, leaving Tingqin at the door directing the servants who followed to carry the things.
The manager led the people to the Chuihua Gate and then left.
After receiving the news, Rong Enqing sent Eryue to pick someone up.
When the group arrived at Baishou Hall, Rong Enqing was already waiting in the main hall.
She was not here for the good things sent by the county lady, but was simply curious about Madam Zhou.
Of the four maids around the county lady, Ruhua followed the county lady out for a trip, and when she came back, she was punished to kneel and confined to her room. Later, Tingqin was not spared either. Even the county lady was punished to kneel by Madam Zhou. It can be seen that Madam Zhou was a very powerful person.
However, she was not interested in whether Nanny Zhou was powerful or not. What interested her was that Yun Shu had told her after she came back from the County Lord's Mansion that Nanny Zhou looked a bit like her, at least ten years older than her, but she looked much younger than her.
Well, looking alike isn't the point. The point is that he is older than her, but looks younger than her!
What does this mean?
This shows that this amazing Nanny Zhou is an expert at taking care of herself or maintaining her health!
I finally get to meet you in person today, so why don’t we exchange experiences?
So, Ron sat in the hall early in the morning waiting.
However, when Nanny Zhou brought Ruhua into the hall, she seemed to have all the muscles and bones suddenly pulled out of her body, and she slid off the chair to the ground in a very untidy manner.
Everyone was shocked by this strange scene.
Mei Xiang, who was accompanying him, looked at the passionate man who had collapsed to the ground like a puddle of mud, and immediately screamed, "Madam!?"
He shouted and reached out to help her up, but after trying several times, he still couldn't get her up from the ground.
Er Yue, who had just walked in, came over to help. The two of them finally helped the man sit down on the chair.
But the next moment, Rong Enqing jumped up from the chair, looking at Nanny Zhou who came in with a complicated expression, shock, suspicion, surprise, disbelief... Finally, tears flowed like rain.
When Rong Enqing saw that Nanny Zhou was in a state of panic, Nanny Zhou also looked at Rong Enqing with a complicated expression, with mixed feelings in her heart. For a moment, she didn't know how to step forward.
Ruhua stood behind Madam Zhou and reached out to tug at her sleeve. "Madam Zhou, what's going on between you and Madam? Are you really sisters who have been separated for many years?"
Nanny Zhou ordered coldly without even turning her head: "Go out and wait."
Ruhua glanced at Madam Rong, whose expression and behavior were extremely strange, then looked at Nanny Zhou, who was standing straight. She suppressed her doubts and obediently retreated out of the hall.
Rong Enqing also came to his senses and quickly waved his hand to send Meixiang and the other two away.
When only Rong Enqing and Madam Zhou were left in the hall, Rong Enqing shouted hoarsely, "Zhou Xue, is that you?"
As soon as these words came out, Madam Zhou's face darkened. She quickly stepped forward and slapped Rong Enqing on the forehead. "Didn't I tell you not to call me by my name? You're having the same old problem again, aren't you? You're being disrespectful!"
Nanny Zhou glared at Rong Enqing hatefully, "I'm your mother!"
Rong Enqing's tears, which she had just held back, burst out again. She cried and laughed, wiped her tears, and retorted: "It was you who didn't allow me to call you mom, and you said you were afraid that I would call you old! If you don't let me call you mom, I can only call you by your name. Can you blame me for this? Wuuwuwu..."
Madam Zhou reached out and hugged the person into her arms, "Alright, you are already so old, why are you still crying?"
As he spoke, he raised his hand and patted Rong Enqing gently on the back twice.
Just when Rong Enqing raised his hand to hug Nanny Zhou back, Nanny Zhou suddenly pushed Rong Enqing away.
Then, in front of Rong Enqing's stunned expression, Nanny Zhou took two steps back, raised her hand and pointed at her, and said in a tone of great disdain: "Why are you so fat? Why are you so old? Don't you exercise, diet, or take care of your health? My God, why don't you just die of laziness?"
