Before the Mo Family's servants left, Xiao Ruo took out two more silver notes to be given to Fu Zhiwen.
The cost of living in the Capital City was high, and it was unknown if Fu Zhiwen's salary was enough for his own expenses, let alone for social obligations.
Lady Guan felt relieved that there were people from the Mo Family in the Capital. Otherwise, this New Year's would have been a lonely one for the youngest son.
Lady Guan seldom left the house, and as Xiao Ruo's pregnancy advanced, she rarely went out even to the Xie Residence to treat Xie Qingning, let alone to the medicine hall. Therefore, had it not been for Fu Jingwen and Fu Zhiwen bringing back New Year's gifts, the whole family would hardly have felt the approaching festival.
