Hui Niang bought a lot of groceries this time and also brought wine.
Learning that they were going next door for dinner, Lady Zhao agreed without hesitation. She brought Nannan over, placed the child beside Mr. Zhao, and then ran to the kitchen to help. She was all smiles, as if it were New Year. Once she entered the kitchen, she shouted to Hui Niang.
"Sister, let me help you wash the vegetables and learn some of your skills."
"There are very few relatives who want to associate with Old Zhao and me. I won't hide it from you, those people are all snobbish. When Old Zhao was down and out, they were all afraid he would drain them dry, but after he became a scholar and started teaching at the academy, they all came running for benefits."
"I never expected us to have such a connection. No wonder I took a liking to Wan Niang at first sight."
Hui Niang was also pleased.
"Who wouldn't say so."
She thought it was good for Wan Niang to have more people caring for her.
