When the Meng family was preparing for the storm, the Jiang family actually found out about it, and in a fit of anger, they locked their daughter in the room and prevented the two from meeting.

When Huai'an heard about it, he went to Jiang's house, but he didn't see anyone and touched his nose.

Although Mrs. Meng didn't agree with the matter between the two, she heard that the Jiang family's attitude was firm, which was somewhat unexpected.

But after thinking about it, she understood, what is the opinion of the two marriage palaces on her side, won't the Jiang family weigh it?

The Meng family survives with the gift of the Empress Dowager of the West to Meng Huai'an, how can this gift be so reliable, it is because they act cautiously and look forward to the future, but the Jiang family and the Empress Dowager are real relatives, and they are not afraid of anything.

As soon as the Jiang family sang like this, it solved a problem for her, she breathed a sigh of relief, called Huai'an and said: "In this case, you can accept this heart, there are many girls from good families." ”

Huai'an shook his head: "But I prefer Yarong." ”

"People don't agree, what can they do?" The old lady was secretly happy, she didn't show herself in front of Huai'an, she only pushed the responsibility to the Jiang family, and before leaving, she also became a good person, "Yarong, I like that kid very much, if you can do it, it's really a good thing, but it's a pity, the Jiang family refuses to let go, then there is no way." ”

Huai'an frowned, he couldn't help it, the Jiang family was wary of him, and now he couldn't get close to the Jiang house for half a step.

Wandering into the evening, he slapped the table, dragged a box with some clothes, hurried to the backyard, and still climbed out on the stone slab that he had moved back and forth.

This sound alarmed Siqing, and almost beat him as a thief.

After Siqing saw his appearance clearly, she was surprised: "Are you going to run away from home?"

"Yes, I'm going to get Yarong out and take her away. He swore by it.

Siqing looked at the wall he hadn't climbed, and thought to himself, you can't go up, is it so easy to enter the Jiang family's mansion compound?

She was embarrassed to say it directly, and said euphemistically: "You can't think of one out is one out, Miss Jiang is in her own home, and she is not in prison, can she be saved by you?"

"What's the difference between a home without freedom and a prison?"

"Then can you promise to bring her out, where will she go after she is brought out, and how will she live?"

"This ......" Huai'an didn't think about it, and said hesitantly: "Anyway, let's go far first, and then talk about it, to a place where they can't find us, we two adults,

You won't starve, you can do anything. ”

"Can you really do anything?" Siqing was inexplicably a little annoyed, and stepped forward and said: "My uncle-in-law and cousin work on the docks, can you do the physical work of a pampered son like you? Of course, you are from a porcelain painting family, and you can also do work that you can't do with your strength, but you haven't learned yet, how can you do this business when you go out? Or, do you want Miss Jiang to show up and do things?"

Huai An was stunned, he had never thought about these details, and he had never seen such an aggressive Siqing.

Siqing realized that she was a little impulsive, paused, calmed down, and felt a little unbearable: "Forget it,

Anyway, you're right, two adults, you won't starve to death, but you have to think about it, irresponsible impulsiveness doesn't prove how much you like her. ”

The other party listened to her words and really thought about it.

I thought about it three times.

Then he said: "You're right, I won't be able to enter the Jiang family, and I won't be able to take Yarong with me if I go in." ”

"Yes. ”

"I think it's better for her to pretend to reconcile with her family first, and then run out after getting free, why don't you go and help me pass a word, her maid will go out every morning to help her buy preserved fruits, you go early in the morning, and you can stay at the door, you help me tell her this method, and tell her, tomorrow I will wait for her at the dock at night, and we will fly away." ”

Siqing smacked his tongue, marveling at how many bad ideas he could come up with in such a short period of time!

Responded angrily: "You still have to go, just go, what does this have to do with me?"

"Good sister, help me, please, my life and death are tied to this. Huai'an looked pitiful.

"What life and death?" she was angry, "You grew up so much just to talk about feelings?"

The other party nodded without thinking: "Anything in life can be done, but love alone can't." ”

There was no way to take the person in front of her, so she reluctantly compromised: "Then I am only responsible for helping you bring the words, as for what Miss Jiang thinks, I can't control it." ”

She fulfilled her agreement, and waited for Yarong's maid outside Jiang's house the next day, pretending to go up to ask for directions and convey the words.

Huai'an Ding time is midnight this day, the two meet in Aijiakou, there is a wharf in Aijiakou, there will be some soldiers patrolling during the day, and no one will take care of it at night, this is the best route he thought of, although the largest wharf in Xuncheng is closer, but there are many people, it is easy to be found.

As soon as it was dark, he cleaned up and climbed over the wall from the backyard again, this time streamlining something, although it was laborious, but it was finally turned out.

Siqing didn't sleep very well this night, and she hadn't figured out how to tell people tomorrow that the young master was gone, and the family must be asking.

Although she didn't quite believe that Huai'an could really run far away and never come back, even if he was determined to not return, it would not be difficult for Jiang and Meng to find them.

It's just that even if she leaves for a few days, there must be an explanation, as long as the two families communicate, the matter of her communication will be shaken out, how should she explain it then?

When the morning dawned on this problem, she still didn't come up with an answer, she consciously came to the Meng family these days, she has always been cautious, although it is not liked, it is not boring, but when she meets Huai'an, she can't do things according to the rules for some reason.

First secretly helped him draw, then went to play with him, and now helped him elope, everything was unexpected.

This is probably the nemesis of fate, she thought.

Fortunately, the problem that I hesitated for a night was finally solved.

Because at dawn, Meng Huai'an came back.

He had walked in through the door, and the box had gone nowhere, and his eyes were dark and dull.

The next person only said that he had been drinking all night again, and did not interfere much.

Siqing rushed over and quietly asked, "What happened?"

He replied in despair, "Yarong didn't go." ”

"How could it be?" Siqing thought about it and said nervously, "I really brought the words here." ”

"I know. Huai'an didn't suspect her, he waited all night at the dock to no avail, went to Jiang's house at dawn, and waited for Yarong's maid, who said that how dare Miss elope with him, yesterday I thought he was joking.

Siqing saw his slightly haggard face, so she had to comfort: "Then don't be so impulsive in the future." ”

The other party did not speak, and sat with his head hung in the dimly lit room, leaving a gloomy shadow.

Huai'an cut off contact with Yarong.

The Meng family thinks that the feelings of young people are like this, they come in a hurry and go quickly, where can a person like him be a long-term lover?

And except for Siqing, no one knows that there is a long-awaited wait, if you haven't experienced tossing and turning, where can you let go so easily?

He was honest for a while, and he didn't go out to have fun anymore, and the most touching was Mr. He.

There is only one problem, although the second young master has become diligent and studious, the painting technique has not improved at all.

He didn't believe in the notion that he was not talented, at least in his opinion, Huai'an was extremely intelligent, and for a while his progress was obvious, only to suddenly stagnate.

He chose a time to ask Huai'an, Huai'an was not in a good mood, and honestly explained to him: "During that time, the fourth sister helped me draw." ”

"Fourth Miss painted?" Mr. He was taken aback, and then he understood why his "painting style changed abruptly" during that time.

"Did Miss Four learn to paint?" he asked.

"I haven't studied, I've figured it out myself. Huai'an said: "Why don't you teach her too?"

Mr. He thought for a moment: "You can ask her what she means." ”

Huai'an really asked Siqing, but he didn't pick the time to ask when the whole family was at the dinner table.

Siqing was full of hope, but listened to Meng Hongxian: "How can she learn well?"

"The teacher saw the painting of the fourth sister and said that she painted it well. ”

"She doesn't need to learn, you just need to study hard, when Ting'an comes back, the two of you will go to the kiln with me, and glazing and firing also need to understand." ”

With Meng Siru's experience, Meng Hongxian decided not to let his daughter learn these skills, and when they all got married, all the efforts he had made before would be in vain.

"Those can be done by others, the Meng family is making porcelain paintings, the key is to have a good template. Huai'an said: "We haven't had a new template for so many years, all the old patterns are burned, and sooner or later they will be eliminated, the fourth sister is talented, and she can really learn." ”

"If I think what I'm doing is the old pattern, you can draw the new one and don't care about other things. Meng Hongxian replied, thinking of Siqing's presence, and looked at her, "Do you want to learn?"

After listening to Fang Cai's conversation, Siqing could still say that she wanted to learn, and said in a low voice: "I listen to your father's arrangement." ”

"Well, that's it. ”

"Okay. Originally, this matter was also a proposal, but seeing that Meng Hongxian disagreed, Huai'an stopped talking.

This topic is about Siqing all the way, and she still can't be the master.

Pan Lanfang saw that the atmosphere was a little embarrassing, and said to Siqing: "If you are fine, just go here more, by the way, Si Yi likes to listen to dramas, you are bored at home, just ask her to take you around." ”

As he spoke, he turned to Meng Siyi: "You have time to take your fourth sister to that Xiaofeng Building to go shopping." ”

Meng Si also choked on a mouthful of crucian carp and mumbled indistinctly.

Siqing smiled and said: "I haven't learned needlework at my aunt's house before, if it's not troublesome, why don't I come to my aunt's side often in the future to teach me." ”

"That's a simple thing, not a hassle. ”

After eating, Meng Siyi moved over, pulled Siqing aside, and whispered apologetically: "Fourth sister, don't mind, I don't want to go out with you, I'm ...... I ......"

"It's not in the way, I don't like to listen to dramas, and I don't feel comfortable going. She said.

"Well, let's go shopping when we have time, by the way, fourth sister, don't you know how to paint, there is an expo in the West Garden, I heard that it was formed by some literati and scholars, and there are often good paintings on display, so let's take time to see it together." ”

"Good. ”

Meng Si also couldn't sit still here, and went back without saying a few words, Huai'an was reprimanded again during the banquet, and he didn't want to stay longer, so he left early after dinner.

Siqing didn't want to leave by herself when the old lady and the others hadn't left, standing alone in the courtyard, looking back at the hall, the faint yellow lamp separated the door into two worlds.

A dead leaf slowly fell, resting on her shoulder, and the wind blew it up again, circling a few times before landing at her feet.

The autumn wind is up, and the weather is getting cooler.

There was a sudden change in the imperial court, and the Meng family's aunt Hong Xuan was dismissed.

Not only was the Hong family in a mess, but the Meng family was also caught off guard, the old lady asked Si Ru to come back and ask for details, Si Ru said at first that he was not available, but after a few days he replied and came with Hong Xuan.
