Yuan Mao lowered his head slightly, looked at the ground and sighed, "I don't know how to face you, I am extremely ashamed. Unfortunately, I have bad luck and poor ability. I have messed myself up like this, and I am powerless to help you even if I want to. I am sorry for making you suffer."

Zhou Xinyue hurriedly said, "My benefactor, please don't say such things again. The more you say this, the more guilty we feel."

After saying this, Zhou Xinyue gave her seventh aunt a look, and her seventh aunt understood immediately.

The seventh aunt smiled and apologized and left first. Soon, she called a few people to carry in a few boxes.

Zhou Xinyue said politely, "Benefactor, we are aware of your predicament. Although we can't help you in many aspects, we brought some local specialties today to help you temporarily relieve your homesickness. It can at least calm your anxious mood. I hope you will not despise it and must accept it."

After saying that, the men opened the three large boxes, which were filled with gold and silver.

Yuan Mao glanced at them and said, "Why are you so polite? How can I face you like this?"

Yuan Mao frowned and continued in a reproachful tone: "You came from afar and brought these things to visit me. Not only did I not help you, how could I accept these? Aren't you making things difficult for me?"

Seventh Aunt said with a smile: "Master Yuan, please don't be polite. We know that our abilities are limited and we can't help much. We are just trying our best. I hope you will not despise us and accept our help."

After saying that, the seventh uncle said, "The rice on our ship takes up too much space. It's almost suffocating our ship. I hope Lord Yuan can do us a favor and borrow your warehouse. Let us move half of the rice on the ship to your warehouse and store it first. When we need it, we will ask you for more. I hope Lord Yuan can generously lend us your warehouse. As for the remaining half of the rice, we will transport it to Meizhi City and ask the city lord to borrow the warehouse. In short, thank you for your trouble."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Mao raised his eyebrows and said, "Well... okay. Since you are in trouble and have no place to store the grain, then Yuan will temporarily borrow my warehouse to store the grain for you. But when do you want..."

Uncle Seven said hurriedly: "As for when you want it, we'll see what happens then."

Yuan Mao laughed loudly and said cheerfully, "Okay, it's settled. Don't worry about what happens next. I'll go to Meizhi City to make arrangements first, and then I'll come to the inn to inform you. Please wait patiently in the inn."

Zhou Xinyue bowed quickly and said, "That's great. Thank you, Master Yuan."

Everyone expressed their gratitude to Yuan Mao again, exchanged a few words with him and then dispersed the party.

After leaving the house, on the way back, Uncle Seven smiled very happily and said, "Great, this matter has finally been settled. Now we just have to wait patiently for the news."

The Seventh Uncle's Wife was also very happy and said, "We are not afraid of spending money, we are just afraid that he will not accept the money. The result is not bad, at least he accepted it. Since he accepted it, then this matter is likely to be settled."

Zhou Xinyue was actually happy in her heart, and said, "That's right, I was just afraid that he wouldn't accept it. But fortunately, we knew in advance that he loved gambling, lust and money. I heard that he owed a lot of debts and almost squandered all his father's money."

The seventh uncle said, "He married 38 concubines. The monthly food rations for such a large family are incredible. So the rice is enough for him to eat for half a year."

Zhou Xinyue said: "Thank you, Uncle Seventh and Aunt Seventh. I am really grateful."

The seventh aunt-in-law said in a reproachful tone: "Look, you're here again. We are all family, and since we are family, we shouldn't talk behind each other's backs. Do you hear me? Don't be so polite next time."

Uncle Seven started fiddling with his pipe again and said, "That's right. If you're so polite next time, you'll have to drink three glasses of wine as punishment."

Zhou Xinyue said jokingly: "Then I am willing to drink these three glasses of wine."

Zhou Xinyue and her seventh uncle and aunt returned to the inn chatting and laughing.

This inn is quite large and is located in the very center of Sibei City.

Just outside the inn is a busy main street.

There is everything on the street, including people selling breakfast in the morning and various stalls.

Often after dinner, Zhou Xinyue would take her children, her seventh aunt, and Fanxing for a walk, go shopping, and eat snacks, and a few days would pass quickly.

Early that morning, before anyone got up, Aunt Seventh knocked on Zhou Xinyue's door.

Zhou Xinyue got up dazedly, opened the door and said, "What's wrong with Aunt Seven?"

The Seventh Aunt said happily, "Oh, that's a good thing, Madam Yue, that's a good thing."

Zhou Xinyue asked curiously: "What good news? Uncle Seventh Grandma"

The Seventh Uncle said excitedly: "Yuan Mao has returned from Meizhi City. He has hired several tall and luxurious carriages and is waiting outside the inn. He is just waiting for us to go out and board the carriages to Meizhi City. Madam Yue, let's go quickly."

Zhou Xinyue jumped up happily and said, "Great, OK, I'll get ready and come down right away."

The Seventh Uncle said happily, "Okay, then I'll take the children downstairs first. You can pack up slowly and try to move as quickly as possible."

Zhou Xinyue was so happy that she packed her things in a hurry.

After a while, I went down and found that everyone had almost packed up. There was a lot of carriages behind, and many other people were hired.

Seventh Uncle was greeting Yuan Mao in front, and Yuan Mao bowed and greeted Zhou Xinyue from a distance.

Zhou Xinyue also quickly responded to him and got on the carriage soon.

Aunt Seven, Fanxing and Zhou Xinyue's children were in a carriage. The carriage was very big and covered with many thick cushions.

Very comfortable.

Uncle Seven hurried over and said to Zhou Xinyue, "Madam Yue, we can set off now. Are you ready?"

Zhou Xinyue shouted happily: "We're ready. Let's go."

As Zhou Xinyue spoke, her hands waved excitedly in the air.

Because she was finally going to the legendary Meizhi City, where three countries met and various ethnic groups converged, and where she would live in the future. At this moment, even her blood was beating with excitement.

Zhou Xinyue couldn't help singing: "Today is a good day, a good day, why do you say that? Because we are setting off, setting off, the birds are flying to ask me, where am I going? I am going to the big city, what a big city, what is the name of this city, this city is called Meizhi City, Meizhi City, ah, ah, ah, hey, I am going to this big city, ah."
