Yueyao nodded.
Yueyao handed the completed letter to the steward, "Deliver this letter to the Li family and give it to Tingzheng." It was so cold in the mountains, Yueyao asked Tingzheng not to come up. After all, she would be returning next month.
That day's dinner was very lavish: black bean tofu, hot and sour radish slices, Immortal Eggs, and kelp soybean soup.
After dinner, Yueyao spoke with Yuehuan, "No one can idle around here. Starting tomorrow, have Hong Mei and Hong Yi work with Nanny Hao."
