Chapter 223 The Banker
In addition to bringing the book to Jiang Youzhi, Jiang also gave him many other things, including clothes, shoes and socks that had been prepared a long time ago, and some pickles and bacon, which were carefully prepared before coming here. If Jiang Youzhi is busy with homework on weekdays, If you don't have time to cook, you can buy a steamed bun with these pickles and bacon, which is a good meal.

Jiang Youzhi looked at the big burdens in front of him, and said dumbfoundedly: "Sister, this is too much, I don't even know how to take it back."

"Your Third Uncle Xin's family has a car. I'll ask Steward Li to send you an ox cart to take you back later." Mrs. Jiang had already thought about it, and said with a smile.

Jiang Youzhi could only nod in response. "You see that you didn't go home in Chongyang. I really miss you very much. Now that your parents and Shunzi are not at home, you are studying in the state capital alone. You have to go home often, so I can rest assured." Jiang always thought of his younger brother. Alone in the state capital, I was always worried, fearing that I didn't take good care of him, and it would be difficult to explain to my parents in the future.

"Sister, I'm an old man, so don't worry about me. In two years, I'm going to be in the autumn. When I pass the Juren exam, I'll go to the capital to reunite with my parents and elder brothers." Jiang Youzhi thought My sister always regarded him as a child and said helplessly.

"Don't just talk big. I asked your brother-in-law. He said that your knowledge is not as good as your brother's back then. I'm afraid you have to hone it for a few more years. You don't have to worry too much. You are still young now. Read more Work hard for the next few years, and it won’t be too late to take the exam again.” Jiang was afraid that Jiang Youzhi’s failure to pass the exam once would destroy his fighting spirit, so she said earnestly.

"It's okay. It doesn't matter if you fail the exam once. My brother-in-law has also been in the exam for several years. I won't be discouraged." Jiang Youzhi was also open-minded and said with a smile.Fortunately, he has a good relationship with Li Yan, his brother-in-law, and Li Yan himself is kind-hearted. If he is narrow-minded, he should not hold grudges in his heart after hearing what his brother-in-law said.

"Anyway, you have to come home during the holidays, so I can see that you have lost weight, otherwise I can't let it go." Jiang Shi urged Jiang Youzhi again.

"Okay, I just listen to my sister." Jiang Youzhi knew that if he didn't come down today, his sister would definitely not give up, so he nodded helplessly.

Only then did Jiang feel relieved, and asked him about his daily life, until it was getting late, and then reluctantly sent him to the door.

"Sister, you should go back to rest earlier. I will come back to accompany you and brother-in-law to stroll around the state capital after I take a rest in two days." Jiang Youzhi sat on the bullock cart and waved goodbye to Mrs. Jiang.

"Well, be careful on the road." Mrs. Jiang also waved her hand in response, watching the ox cart slowly drive away, and then went back to the mansion with Li Yan.

Because of walking a lot during the day, Li Meier fell asleep very early at night, and slept until the next day.

When she woke up, she was still a little dazed. She glanced at the clock on the table and saw that the time had passed, so she woke up.He quickly put on his clothes, didn't even put on his shoes, and ran outside, shouting while running, "Father, mother, why don't you wake me up!"

Li Mei'er hadn't left the room when she bumped into Xiaochun who brought the water.Fortunately, she had quick eyesight and quick hands, and lifted the washbasin filled with water high, so that Li Meier didn't knock it over.

"Miss Meier, please slow down, be careful not to fall." Xiaochun freed one hand to support Li Meier, and said hastily.

"Sister Xiaochun, where are my parents?" Li Meier hurriedly asked without caring about anything else.

"Sixth Master, Sixth Grandma, and Young Master Shanqing went to the bookstore early in the morning and said they came back for lunch." Xiaochun replied.

Li Meier stomped her feet depressed when she heard the words, frowned and complained, "Mother, why didn't you wake me up!"

Xiaochun looked at Li Meier, and said with a strange expression: "Miss Meier, Sixth Grandma called you this morning, but no matter how much she yelled, she couldn't wake you up. They were in a hurry to go out again, so they simply let you go back to sleep."

Li Meier blushed when she heard the words, she knew that she was a little annoyed to get up, so she coughed awkwardly, and muttered in a low voice: "Mother is too impatient, maybe I'll get up if you scream for a while..."

Xiaochun didn't expose Li Meier, just smiled and said: "Miss Meier, I brought you hot water, you can wash up."

Li Meier thanked her, then went into the room to wash up, and when she finished tidying up, Xiaochun had already put breakfast on the table outside.The breakfast is exquisite, with shredded chicken porridge, fried buns, rice cakes, sugar cakes, and several plates of pickles.

Li Mei'er slept until this point, her stomach was already growling with hunger, and she ate seven or eighty eight meals of the table full of breakfast by herself.After eating, I feel much better.

Li Mei'er didn't know when her parents would come back, so she simply went out, wanting to take a stroll around.Xiaochun was worried that something would happen to her when she went out as a child, so she followed her.

"Sister Xiaochun, I'm just wandering around, I won't go far, you go back and do your own business." Li Meier said helplessly seeing Xiaochun's pacing.

"Miss Meier, just go shopping, and I'll follow you. Butler Li can't let you out of my sight." Xiaochun is a sincere girl, and said solemnly.

Li Meier had no choice but to let Xiaochun follow. She walked slowly on the street where Li Xin's house was located, looking at the other houses on both sides of the street with curiosity in her eyes.It is said that the people living on this street are rich businessmen with some family assets in the state capital, and I don't know what kind of people they are.

Li Meier was walking when she suddenly saw a carriage parked at the side door of a house not far ahead, and several people got off the carriage.

Li Meier's eyes widened in an instant. At first, she suspected that she was wrong. She rubbed her eyes with her hands to make sure she was not dazzled, and then she turned to Xiaochun who was behind her and asked, "Sister Xiaochun, who is the owner of that house?" do you know?"

Xiaochun followed her gaze, nodded and said: "I know, it is the house of the Zhuang family. The master of the Zhuang family has some business contacts with my master, and they will send gifts to the door every year and festival."

Dealer! ?She was right!Li Meier watched the two familiar figures slowly walk into the door, and suddenly felt that this state capital is really too small, so they can happen to each other, should she tell her mother about this matter?
Li Meier thought about it, and decided to wait for her mother to come back, and then told her about meeting the Zhuang family. Although their family had no contact with the Zhuang family before, they were relatives after all, and Yu Susu lived in her house for a while. On the same day, she almost gave birth to a child at her house. It's okay if I haven't seen her now, but since I saw her, I still have to let my mother make up her mind.
