"Lotus, why did you get up so early today? Wait for me, I'll be ready soon."

After sleeping for a night, Lanhua seemed to have forgotten that Lotus was leaving and was still thinking about going to wash clothes with Lotus.

Juhua woke up in a panic when she heard the noise. "It's over. Lotus is awake. Did we sleep too late?"

Su He was amused by their reactions. "I got up early, but you guys should hurry up too. If you delay any longer, it will be too late."

After hearing this, Juhua got dressed faster. Mother Wang was not someone to be trifled with.

Su He looked at the time. It was half past five. She decided to kowtow at Cijingyuan before leaving.

"Chrysanthemum and Orchid, I want to go to the old lady's courtyard and kowtow before I leave. I'll say goodbye to you first. I left something for you, all in my wooden box, remember to take it away later."

Su He carried his luggage on his back, nodded solemnly at the two of them, and turned away.

If they stayed any longer, she was afraid that all three of them would cry. The two of them still had to go to work, and she also had to prepare for what was to come. No one could be delayed.

Lanhua really shed tears. Only when they really separated did she feel so sad.

"Chrysanthemum, from now on it's just the two of us."

Juhua's eyes were also red. "No, Lotus said she would come to see us. Oh, did you hear just now? Lotus said she left something for us. Let's go get it together to prevent it from being taken away by others."

After He Hua left, all her things were to be taken away by Mother Wang, so they took them away before Mother Wang came.

When the two opened it, they were stunned.

"Chrysanthemum, it's medicinal powder! This much is enough for us to use for a long time. Now we don't have to worry about not being able to finish washing clothes. Wow, there's also brown sugar. Oh my god, this ginger is really big! Which piece should we use to cook for lunch?"

The world of foodies is indeed very simple. Chrysanthemum looked at Orchid with complicated eyes.

Su He: I do feel reluctant, but it’s not much.

As soon as Su He arrived at Cijingyuan, he saw Mother Zhang coming towards him.

"Good morning, Madam Zhang. I want to kowtow to the old lady before I leave."

Su He took the initiative to explain.

Zhang Yuan nodded with satisfaction. He was a man who knew what was good for him.

"You don't need to kowtow today. The old lady has told you to come back and report in detail after you have dealt with your household affairs. The old lady wants to know the follow-up. Let's go. The carriage is waiting. The journey is long, so we must set off quickly."

Su He didn't insist. In fact, she didn't want to kowtow, but she was forced by the situation.

"Why didn't the sisters from the laundry room see you off?"

"Yes, we said goodbye in the house. They still had to do the laundry. Now that I'm gone, they have a heavier workload, so I didn't let them out."

Zhang Yuan nodded and didn't ask any further questions.

The two walked to the side door and were about to open it and leave when Su He was called again.

I turned around and saw that it was Lily from Lihuayuan again.

The outfit is exactly the same as yesterday, but it’s much more enthusiastic today.

"Hello, Madam Zhang. Lotus, the Second Madam and the Second Young Master are very pleased with your loyalty to the Old Madam. We were in a hurry yesterday and didn't have time to give you the things. I hope everything goes well for you in the future."

Lily said as she quickly handed over the wooden box in her hand.

The wooden box was very big, and Lotus even broke out in a sweat as she watched Lily.

Second Madam, she looked down on me so much yesterday, why did she come up with a brain cramp and give me a gift today? Is there any trap?

Lily saw that Lotus was slow to answer the call and she was so anxious that she was sweating. "Ancestor, please answer the call quickly, otherwise how will she explain to the Second Master when she returns?"

"Lotus, why are you still standing there? This is what you deserve."

Mother Zhang nodded at Lily in understanding, indicating that she knew what the Second Master meant.

Su He had no choice but to accept it reluctantly.

"Thank you, Second Master and Second Madam, for the reward. I am grateful from the bottom of my heart."

Lily finally delivered the things and she felt completely relaxed. She no longer had to worry about being sold out.

Looking at Lily's relieved face after escaping death, Su He's mind was full of question marks.

What do the people in Lihuayuan mean?

"I say, how long are you going to stay in a daze?"

Mother Zhang really couldn't stand Su He's stupidity. This girl had been in a daze in the carriage for a quarter of an hour. Why was she still standing there like an idiot?

Su He was suddenly awakened when she heard Mother Zhang's words. She was not really in a daze, but was mainly thinking about what to do next. Now that she was leaving the house, she was thinking about whether to buy some gifts for her younger brothers and sisters. Although there were some things in the space, the key was that she couldn't take them out now.

"Mother Zhang, I was thinking about whether I should buy something for my family later. Are we going to the government office to handle household registration now? It's still early now, and I don't know when the county government office will open."

"We can do it once we get there. You can just sit in the carriage later, and I can go down by myself. It doesn't take a lot of time to establish a daughter's household."

Mother Zhang looked very proud. She represented the old lady of the Zhao family. She went to handle the formalities in person, and even the county magistrate had to give her some face.

Su He calculated the time, and it would take at most half an hour for Zhang's mother to come back. It seemed that saving the old lady was the right move.

As soon as Zhang's mother got on the carriage, Su He's face immediately showed admiration and respect, which was very helpful to Zhang's mother.

"Here, this is your female household information. Take a look at it. If there is no problem, keep it away."

Su He took a look at the name and place of origin, and put it away with confidence after it roughly matched. From Zhang's mother's perspective, she put it in her chest, but in fact, Su He put it in the space. It is better to put such an important thing in the space.

"You look so carefully, can you recognize the words?"

It’s not that Mother Zhang is mean. There are not many girls who can read these days. She only learned a few words because of the young lady. Among the maids in the mansion, only the head maid Mudan can recognize one or two hundred words. The rest are illiterate.

Mudan: My status is earned through my strength!

"I can probably understand it. Our village chief's son went to school for a few years, and we all learned some basic characters from him."

Su He was not bragging. Her uncle's son had also been to school, but he had never taught her. Little Hehua learned a few words from the village chief's son, Su Yuwen.

This made Zhang Yuan look at Su He with a higher opinion. This girl was not only a loyal and filial sister, but also had been ambitious since she was young.

"Have you seen what's inside the wooden box?"

"Ah? Not yet."

Su He didn't know why Mother Zhang suddenly asked about the wooden box. Seeing Mother Zhang's speechless look, she decided to take a look.

"what!!!!!"

Mother Zhang was so frightened that she almost fell down. "What's going on?"
