Two days later, the Zheng family really came to hire and set a good date: the 22nd day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar, which is still more than three months away. Because the Zheng family has been prepared, everything is in preparation, and the Li family's dowry, Mrs. Li has also begun to prepare, saying that if Mengzhu thinks about what he needs, he will purchase some more.

The next day, Ji Qing drove a car to take Mengzhu to the calligraphy and painting market, Ji Qing had a joy that could not be concealed, but Mengzhu was a little ashamed.

Mengzhu has studied painting since childhood, quite talented, she likes Zheng Banqiao's painting of bamboo, lifelike, delicate and elegant, noble air leaps in the thick or light brush and ink. I don't want to accidentally see a painting of Ren Bonian's imitation of Zheng Banqiao's bamboo in an antique painting and calligraphy shop today, although it is not a genuine Banqiao, but Ren Bonian and Wu Changshuo are famous painters that she admires very much, and she can't put it down when she sees it. Ji Qing knew that he liked it and helped her buy it. As soon as Mengzhu came back, he got his favorite painting, and he was very happy in his heart.

What's more coincidental is that the shop has a bamboo, put it on the desk, the branches and leaves are green, very quiet and elegant, Mengzhu can't help but look at it twice, the store is a person who is very good at observing words and colors, seeing Mengzhu looked at it carefully, and said with a smile: "Miss likes this plate of bamboo?"

Mengzhu said with a smile: "If there is a plate in the room, it is very elegant and quiet, and I also want to go to the flower market to buy a plate." ”

"Why do you need to buy, I can't put it down, I'm thinking about finding someone to send it, but I'm afraid that I don't know how to cherish people, I think Miss is as elegant as this plate of bamboo, so it's better to give it to Miss. ”

"It's not good, I'd better go to the flower market and buy a plate. ”

Ji Qing saw Mengzhu shirking, he wanted to buy it, who knew that the store was not a greedy person, he must give it to Mengzhu, only said that it would be excellent to take care of the business in the future, if he shirked it again, it was a piece of people's hearts, and the two of them no longer shirked, and the store personally put it on Ji Qing's car.

The two thanked each other, Ji Qing smiled and asked Mengzhu where else he wanted to go, Mengzhu thought for a while and said, "Why don't we go and eat 'White Snake Cake'." ”

I remember that at that time in Cuiyue Pavilion, I often heard people say that "White Snake Cake" is famous far and wide, but she can't come out to taste, and then she can come out, but the guests are flawless, and the time is only a few months, so there is no time to eat, and after three years in the United Kingdom, she can't eat it.

Ji Qing laughed when she heard it, and said that it was really a nice name, which reminded people of the beautiful White Snake Lady and her poignant love story.

Mengzhu said: "I don't know what the White Lady is thinking when she is locked up in the Lei Feng Tower?"

Ji Qing looked at her innocent and naïve, and couldn't help laughing again.

"Let's go, eat her bread, and you might be inspired. ”

The car drove to an alley entrance, which is a food street in Yunzhou, gathering the traditional delicacies of Yunzhou City.

Ji Qing parked the car next to the two trees at the mouth of the alley, and went down to open the door for Mengzhu, as soon as Mengzhu stepped out of the car door, a white petal fell on her hand, she looked up, it turned out that there were petals on the two privet trees, and they had already fallen to the ground.

Mengzhu said angrily: "You will choose a place, and this little flower will be blown down by this merciless wind, and you will crush them into powder." ”

Ji Qing looked at it and smiled and said, "I should have found another place, but this place is spacious." Mengzhu, I knew that I couldn't stop, and I should ride a horse. He knew that on the equestrians of the Academy, her riding skills were difficult even for ordinary men.

Mengzhu threw the petals in his hand into the sky, looked up at the small flowers that were still falling on the tree, shook his head and smiled: "I just said that the White Lady, there are so many white flowers, what day is today?"

"Nonsense. Ji Qing stopped her.

Mengzhu knew his thoughts and laughed at him: "You are a foreigner, don't you know that white represents holiness in the West?"

"Yes, you are the most holy angel in my heart. Ji Qing gently picked up a petal from her hair, and leaned over, her burning lips pressed against her lips, and she could smell the faint fragrance of books on him.

When he was studying abroad, he would hold her hand and go out to play together, but he had never been so bold to release his emotions, and he didn't know if he was engaged after coming back, so he had the courage to pierce the thin layers of paper that separated them.

The petals on the tree were still falling, she instantly felt a little flustered, and there was a kind of trance like a dream, only to hear a gentle voice ringing in her ears: "Mengzhu, I love you!"

She leaned on his shoulder, a trace of sweetness swayed in her heart, she thought, there is a trace of sweetness in the calm, this is happiness!

Took her hand, entered the alley road to find, found this shop selling "white snake cake", the shop is not big, but very clean, the strong aroma hit, Mengzhu is a little impatient, a woman in white greeted, a plate of golden scallion oil heavy crispy cake presented, Mengzhu took a piece and tasted it, the entrance melted, crispy and delicious, it really lived up to its reputation.

Ji Qing also took a piece, tasted it, and said it was excellent. Suddenly, seeing her thoughtful, she couldn't help asking, "Mengzhu, what do you think?" He asked, "What inspiration?" "The white snake must have thought in the tower, "I don't know if my white snake cake sells well?" and he laughed, "Naughty!"

Mengzhu asked the woman in white to wrap some and bring it to Mrs. Li, the lady in white is really filial, and she didn't forget her mother after eating delicious pastries.

The two went to taste a few more delicacies, all of which were snacks with Jiangnan characteristics, which were very comfortable.

Walking out of the alley, Mengzhu put one hand in both hands and said, "There is such a delicious food every day, what more can the husband ask for?"

Ji Qing took her hand and said with a smile as she walked: "In the future, such food will definitely make you tired of eating." ”

When I walked to the entrance of the alley, the roof of the car was already covered with small flowers, like a thin layer of snowflakes.

The car drove out of the alley and turned into a street, there was a little girl and an old man at the corner of the street, the old man played the huqin, and the little girl stood next to it and sang, and there were some bits and pieces of money on the plate in front of her.

"Stop. Mengzhu shouted, and Ji Qing stepped on the brakes: "What's wrong?"

Mengzhu got out of the car, looked at the little girl, and suddenly her eyes were a little moist, Ji Qing asked, "What's wrong, Mengzhu?"

Mengzhu shook his head, put a bag of snacks in his hand in front of the little girl, and touched out a few banknotes on his body and put them on the plate, the old man stood up and said, "Thank you, Miss!", and the little girl also bowed deeply to her.

Mengzhu turned his head and pulled the car door and drilled up.

Ji Qing hurriedly got into the car, saw Mengzhu crying in the car, and said softly: "Silly girl, now this kind of singing is everywhere, if you see one crying once, how many tears will come?"

"Ji Qing, you also know that although I was born in a family, my father was killed by traitors, my family was in the middle of the road, I was separated from my mother and brother when I was young, and I lived a life that did not see the light of day. You can't understand it, I've experienced it, I only hate myself for only having the ability to give away a box of pastries and a few banknotes, Ji Qing, after getting married, I want to come out to run a school and help those children who want to read and write but have poor families, I don't know if you can support me?"

"Of course I support it, but my dad doesn't necessarily agree. ”

Mengzhu was gloomy and didn't say anything all the way.
