Meng Zhaojun did not go to Tang Shunyan's study to disturb him as he did once. He had realized that Tang Shunyan did not like people disturbing his study.

She was not willing to wait here. She was originally in a bad mood, and she didn't sleep well last night. She was around the adults and couldn't get into their conversation. She forced herself to pouted and resisted the idea of ​​going to sleep.

Not letting herself fall asleep, she kept drinking tea and eating cakes.

But I didn’t expect that after drinking the chrysanthemum tea brewed by my young mistress, I felt sleepy and energetic, and the snacks I ate were different from the usual snacks.

Mrs. Meng also felt that the dim sum she usually eats when she comes to Tang Mansion tastes different from what she eats today. In the past, she would usually eat more and drink more water outside for the sake of her figure and modesty.

Today was a little special. Like my daughter, I drank a few cups of chrysanthemum tea. I drank a cup of tea into my stomach and felt refreshed all over.

"Mrs. Tang, what was put in the tea you made? What else was there besides honey? What was used to make those pastries so delicious?"

Mrs. Tang was entertaining guests today, and specially asked her maid to go to her mother-in-law's yard, where she asked for some honey, and had the honey made into cakes to entertain the guests.

Of course the eldest lady is willing. Madam Meng is such a distinguished guest, so of course she needs good things to entertain her.

After hearing the county magistrate's wife praise the delicious tea she drank today and the delicious snacks she ate, Mrs. Tang couldn't help but cover her mouth with her right hand and said with a smile:

"There are chrysanthemums and honey in the tea. The chef also made the snacks in the same way as before, but the honey is different. You all think it's a little special, right? Do you think it's very fragrant?"

Meng Zhaojun and his mother, Mrs. Meng, both nodded after hearing what Mrs. Tang said. Mrs. Meng said:

"I would like to hear the details. So the reason why the food we eat and drink today tastes different is because of the honey? Where did you buy the honey? The difference is so surprising."

Mrs. Tang was praised by the guests, and she forgot that she usually didn't like Mrs. Li, and said with a smile:

"The honey was not bought. It was Yan'er who went to play at Li's house. Their little daughter gave it to Yan'er and also gave her some toys. This time Yan'er brought a big gift to her aunt's house and was given honey and toys.

, it’s not a loss.”

Mrs. Meng only paid attention to the Tang family. She would not pay attention to a wet nurse of the Tang family. Only her daughter was thoughtful. She thought so much at a young age that even she, the mother, did not guess what her daughter was thinking.

"Oh, does that nanny keep bees at home? Does their family do carving?"

"I heard from Mrs. Li that she didn't keep bees at home. Maybe her husband bought them from somewhere else. The toy given to Yan'er was indeed carved by Mrs. Li's husband."

Mrs. Tang didn't believe that a daughter of a commoner family could carve for only four months, and she wouldn't believe that there really was a child prodigy even if she was beaten to death.

She believed that her son was the best, and that her son had not accomplished much at the age of three. She deliberately concealed in her words that the children in the Li family were smart and capable.

The wife of the county magistrate is an official wife, and she does not want an official wife to pay attention to a common person.

Subconsciously, Mrs. Meng didn't want to pay attention to Mr. Li, but if she inquired about Mi Tang, others would know that this matter could not be hidden.

After hearing this, Mrs. Meng just nodded and stopped talking about this topic. She started talking about the Chinese New Year in a month or two. Every family wanted to give gifts. She hoped that the Tang family could send some better gifts from elsewhere.

They chatted again about the popular fabrics, hairstyles, and costumes in Kyoto this year. They talked about household matters with Mrs. Tang, not about the official affairs that her husband was doing in the county.

Meng Zhaojun listened quietly to the chat between her mother and Mrs. Tang. Her thoughts went to Tang Shunyan. It seemed that the Li family was becoming more and more mysterious. A carpenter now had a carving job.

Doesn’t the Tang family want to cooperate with their family?

Meng Zhaojun was thinking about her own affairs in a daze. In her previous life, she read most novels and TV series. What about Cinderella's transformation?

The rich girl goes downhill, Cinderella wins against the rich daughter, but the peasant girl defies fate and helps her family get rich.

Meng Zhaojun felt that apart from the memory of his previous life, he had no other golden fingers. He only had a good family background, but he had no characteristics when he was reborn. The idea of ​​being proud in the past seemed a bit ridiculous when he thought about it.

She always feels that the daughter of the Li family is threatening to her. She wants to see the daughter of the Li family, but she cannot think of a reason to do so.

She is a young lady from the county magistrate's family, so how can she visit ordinary people's homes?

What would people think if they found out? Would it cause trouble because of her incident, and she didn’t want to bring publicity to her father.

The Tang family had contact with the Meng family, but it was only between the Madam's family and she didn't want to involve the men.

Meng Zhaojun has been with his father in the past few years. He knows that his father takes assessments every three years and has been here for more than a year.

If the assessment is good after a year, my father will be promoted or transferred. My father and mother would rather go back to Kyoto. It is better to be a small official in the prosperous Kyoto than to live outside, and there is no need to leave home like now.

Meng Zhaojun was thinking about something and wanted to find out if the Tang family had cooperated with the Li family.

It was inappropriate for a child like her to discuss these topics, so she could only ask with an innocent smile, as if out of nowhere:

"Mrs. Tang, are the toys Tang Shunyan received very novel? Will your family also turn these toys into a business, or will you two cooperate to make money together?"

Mrs. Meng was a little surprised when her daughter asked Mrs. Tang this question. She knew that her daughter was smart, but she did not expect that her daughter also had business acumen.

Mrs. Tang looked at Meng Zhaojun blankly. This little girl who was only three years old in front of her couldn't be so rebellious, okay?

Think about what she would have done when she was three years old? I recall it vaguely. At that time, she only knew how to eat, and she was submissive. She was afraid that her aunt would punish her mother and daughter, and she was even more afraid of doing something wrong.

"Mrs. Meng, you are so amazing! You teach your daughter so well."

Mrs. Tang’s compliments made Mrs. Meng laugh and say:

"What does she know as a child? Maybe she is listening to the nonsense I am talking about now because I usually manage the household affairs and the dowry shop at home! I don't mean to find out the secrets of your family."

Meng Zhaojun lowered his head after listening to his mother's words. He was a businessman, and there were some things he was doing that had not been fully publicized to the outside world. He did not want outsiders to know. She asked Mrs. Tang if she could answer this question.

But Mrs. Tang thinks this is just a trivial matter. Their family cooperates with the Li family in small businesses, and they are not optimistic about the Li family at all. It would be better if they become corrupt.

I don't care if I leak out and have to pay taxes. In the county town, the eyes of my parents and officials are bright. How can I escape his eyes?

When I think about it, I feel that Mrs. Meng and her daughter are very powerful.
