Transmigration: From Farmer To Empress-Chapter 1738 - 1745: Universe in the sleeve, the sun and moon endure in the great jar (2)
The next day
After Nangong Yi went to court, Cai Wei put the three well-fed buns into Space, then stored some dim sum and fruit in Space, saving them for when they get hungry.
After preparing, she changed into clothes that ordinary people wear and left the Palace alone. Today she had already arranged with Juhua to check the accounts together.
However, before checking the accounts, she planned to first visit the Nursing Homes. Since pregnancy and childbirth, she hadn’t been to the Nursing Homes and Yishan Hall even once, so taking advantage of today’s outing, it seemed good to visit them as well.
Now it was already the weather of April in the solar calendar; the peach trees were blooming, and the leaves had already sprouted. The citizens on the street were all wearing single-layer clothing, walking leisurely through the bustling and prosperous streets, everywhere showing the vibrant spring atmosphere with red flowers and green willows.
Juhua sat inside the horse carriage, looking out at the street view through the glass window, enthusiastically excited, chattering non-stop.
"I haven’t been out for more than half a month, and I didn’t expect the changes outside to be so big. Look, that tree next to ’Capital Eight Items,’ last time I saw it, it was still bare, and now it’s green..."
"..."
"Oh, Cai Wei, Look quickly, there’s a Monkey Show over there. Should we go have a look? Let’s go, let’s go..."
Cai Wei was annoyed by the noise and threatened her by saying, "If you don’t behave, tomorrow you’ll obediently stay at home preparing bridal gifts, and don’t even think about coming out with me again."
Frightened by her words, Juhua stuck out her tongue and obediently shut her mouth, no longer daring to annoy her.
Arriving at the Nursing Homes, the person in charge, Eldest Lady Mo, came out to greet her. The Nursing Homes in the Capital have always been managed by Eldest Lady Mo because she is righteous and kind-hearted; thus, Cai Wei felt assured leaving the Nursing Homes in her hands, even if she hadn’t visited in over a year, she wasn’t worried about anything going wrong.
Eldest Lady Mo was very happy to see Cai Wei, like seeing a family member, and held her hand, asking many questions.
Seeing the Nursing Homes well-managed and everyone well-cared for, Cai Wei also felt very satisfied. She expressed her gratitude to Eldest Lady Mo and inquired about how her recent days had been and if there was anything she needed help with.
Eldest Lady Mo hesitated for a moment, a bit embarrassed, then said, "I’m ashamed to say, but I do have one matter today I’d like to ask your help with."
"Oh? What matter? Eldest Lady, feel free to tell me." 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖
"It’s my unrelenting son, who is already at the age to start a family and career, yet doesn’t even have a trace of a daughter-in-law. People at my age are all holding their grandsons, but I have none to hold, so my heart is always feeling empty and it’s very painful!"
Cai Wei was surprised and said, "Lian Cheng Brother is talented and is the big shopkeeper of Yishan Hall, how can he not find a daughter-in-law? Perhaps his standards are too high?"
Eldest Lady Mo said, "That’s right, that child doesn’t want those capable wives I found for him, insisting on finding one knowledgeable and sensible. But how many girls from modest families know how to read? Those who do are mostly daughters of wealthy families, and wealthy families are very particular. They heard Cheng has such an irresponsible father, fearing he takes after his old man, and therefore are unwilling to marry into our family. So because of this, his marriage affairs have been delayed to now and haven’t been settled, almost driving me crazy with worry... So, Wei’er, you see, do you know any suitable girls who could introduce themselves to Cheng? Our family, in marrying a daughter-in-law, neither demands the appearance nor the family background of the other party, as long as she’s the daughter of an innocent people, knowledgeable and sensible, family a bit poor, ordinary appearance is also fine."
