"Looking for someone to talk to the matchmaker?" the old lady pondered for a moment in the face of Meng Hongxian's proposal, "Do you want to talk to Huai'an or Ting'an?"

"Both of them are not small, it's time to inherit the Meng family. ”

"It's fine. The old lady nodded, "However, if you talk about people, let them take a look at themselves, marrying a daughter-in-law is not better than marrying a daughter-in-law, if the young husband and wife don't see each other, and they quarrel and shout every day at home, we won't have a peaceful birthday." ”

"Yes, they'll pick it themselves. Meng Hongxian replied, "I hope they can be obedient and sensible, and give the Meng family branches as soon as possible, I am also old." ”

When the old lady heard this, she saw the gray hair on his temples, and she was worried for a while, it turned out that even her son was already getting old.

But thinking of Huai'an and Ting'an's temperament, and feeling that it would not be so easy to get them married, she wanted Meng Hongxian to look at the way back: "Actually, the next generation, isn't there already Huan'er, Siru's child, the Hong family doesn't want it, it's ours." ”

"It's a girl after all. Meng Hongxian frowned, "Even if you don't have the surname Hong, you will follow someone else's surname sooner or later." ”

The matter of entrusting the matchmaker was handed over to the He family, and she did things neatly, and soon found suitable candidates for the two young masters.

Miss Huang has a gentle temperament, conservative and introverted, just the opposite of Huai'an, who talks a lot, and can restrain each other.

The one who chose Ting'an was the daughter of the Liang family in the north of the city, Miss Liang had also gone abroad and seen the world, and she was very similar to Ting'an, and the two must have a common language.

Originally, it was planned to let Ting'an meet first, but Ting'an was busy with the art exhibition, and it was delayed again and again, and it happened to be with Huai'an.

On this day, because of the great success of the exhibition in Sigu Xuan, some colleagues discussed holding a celebration banquet for Ting'an, which was not large in scale and only invited relatives and friends, but they were close to the water, and they wrapped up the drunken tea hall with their relationship, but the style was very high.

Ting An saw that he couldn't drag it on, so he said, "Please invite Miss Liang to come to Drunken Mingxuan to meet." ”

At the same time, Huai'an and Miss Huang, who were going to meet, made an appointment in the tea hall opposite the West Garden.

This teahouse is new to Xuncheng in the past two years, different from the ordinary large open teahouse, it has a partition around each table, the seats are padded with soft felt, and the window is hung with Western-style printed curtains, half of which is lifted and half is placed, so that the light does not completely penetrate in, therefore, the light in this hall appears soft and soft, and no one says that the erhu is booked, which is very quiet.

Compared with ordinary teahouses, young people like to come here when they get together, they should be the age of noisy, but without exception like quiet, do not want to disturb people, but are older, like to drill into the lively pile, no one comes to disturb and feel that it is not good, it is also a strange phenomenon.

If the only deficiency of this teahouse is that the refreshments are not as good as the traditional teahouse, and the people who come to deliver tea can't be called tea doctors, they claim to be waiters, and they don't use copper kettles to order tea, and they have already brewed it, but fortunately, they don't talk much, and if they don't call, they won't come and walk around at will.

Huai'an wants to meet here, in addition to being quiet, there is another reason, it is close to his third brother's celebration banquet, and after eating tea here, he can catch up with the field over there.

Early in the morning, he was taking a few coats and trying them one by one, when the little guy told him that Siqing was waiting outside the courtyard, he waved his hand and told him to call someone in.

As soon as Siqing walked in, he saw that he had just put on a blue and white striped suit, I hadn't seen him wear it before, maybe it was a new one, and I saw him holding a wide-brimmed hat, gesturing in front of the mirror, and after making a comparison, he shook his head and threw the hat down.

"Do you want to dress up like this to see Miss Huang?" she walked a few steps away from him and stopped, half-leaning on the sofa next to her, her eyes looking around, only to fall on him again.

"That's not it, go to that teahouse, of course, you have to dress more formally, let me tell you, the waiters there are all dressed in Western clothes, and they are wearing bow ties, and some can even speak a few words in foreign language, which is amazing. As Huai'an spoke, he took another hat with white and black silk trim, and looked left and right in the mirror.

Siqing lowered her head, just in time to see the pair of embroidered shoes on her feet, she grabbed the placket of her clothes, and said indifferently: "What did you call me to do?"

"Naturally, there is something. Huai'an put on his hat and turned around.

This turn made Siqing startled.

She didn't glance in the mirror just now, but now she saw that this guy had painted his whole face black with oil paint, and he didn't know what he used under his eyes and was stained with a black mole, and there was a circle of red dots on his nose, dense.

Although it is exaggerated, it is quite natural, if you are not familiar with his appearance, you can really be deceived by this outfit.

She looked at this "miserable" face, her mood suddenly improved, and she couldn't help but smile: "If Miss Huang is a big beauty, wouldn't it be a loss for you to scare her like this?"

"Beautiful or not, it's not just about the face, if she can still see me like this, I respect her as a good man, and I can really talk to her. ”

After a pause, he said, "I was looking for you to come with me." ”

"Ah...... What am I going to do, I still want to go to the third brother's celebration banquet, I must have heard a lot of advice from professionals......"

"It's because of the celebration banquet, I must be able to eat a lot of delicious food made by professional chefs, in case I can't go here, but I can't catch up, you come with me first, if there is anything at that time, you can help me get out, and then let's go to the celebration banquet together." ”

"That'...... Then I'll go back and change it first......" She quickly relented, once again feeling that she really didn't know how to refuse him.

I want to change into a dress that can go in and out of that kind of occasion, but after thinking about it, she doesn't seem to have a suitable one, and it's too late to go out and buy it now, so borrow it...... The Meng family only has Si Yi and a few sets of dresses, but Si Ye has already moved out.

"What are you going to change, I don't have time. Huai An interrupted her thoughts and pushed her out, babbling all the way, and her words were choked for a long time.

"Can I go in in my dress?" she said when she said this, and she was almost at the door of the tearoom.

Huai'an looked at her, the light blue embroidered yellow side of the slanted skirt, a simple bun at the back of the head, and the rest of the hair braided into a long braid, today I am going to a celebration banquet, the small bun has added two goose yellow beads than in the past, and the whole person is fresh and beautiful.

Huai'an smiled knowingly, stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers in front of her: "Why can't it, who dares to stop you when you go in?"

"But you didn't mean the waiter ...... there?"

"Why bother what they think?"

"Didn't you go to great lengths to try on clothes before?"

"The question is...... You're good enough to do that, anyway, I think it's good. ”

Siqing's face turned red, is it good...... Now that we have arrived, we can only go like this.

She had always cared not much about the outfit, when she was in the porcelain art club before, some young people, including Naliu Gongzi, didn't wear long coats very much, mostly shirts and suits, at that time some people said that her skirt and simple hairstyle were incompatible with the porcelain art club, she said that she would go back and buy it, but just talked, and never did it.

What she thought was, even if she was dressed as a flower and couldn't make something, wouldn't the Porcelain Art Society still be able to do it?

What's more, the art fair next door is all "gown pie", who would say a word wrong?

Of course, the porcelain art club is still closed, but those are two different things, and what should be changed should be the inner thoughts, not the external attire.

She followed Huai'an into the tearoom.

Since he was greeted by the waiter in front of the door, he glanced at it several times meaningfully, but these few glances, the thoughts that Siqing firmly believed in his heart were a little shaken.

Perhaps, what others look at may not be your outward attire, but only through this outfit, they can peek into your knowledge and taste.

The opposite side of Huai'an was to be left to Miss Huang, the two divided the table, Siqing sat next to them, Miss Huang hadn't come yet, Huai'an's table was not for tea for the time being, and the waiter took the menu to Siqing first.

Although it is a tea room, there are still dim sum, side dishes, the menu booklet is colorful, all with pictures, but there are no words, there are several pages, and you have to look at the pictures to order things.

She had just turned over, and the waiter bent down first: "Miss, do you need me to introduce you?"

She looked down, the tea on the first two pages is known, Pu'er Longjing green tea oolong tea, etc., to go into detail, this oolong tea contains Tieguanyin, Wuyi tea, etc., and the cakes in the middle can also be said to be approximate, walnut cake, cloud cake, and glutinous sugar cake, etc., but then turn back, look at the picture but I haven't seen it.

There were about pieces of fruit on the plate, mixed with several things, soaked in white milk, sprinkled with melon seeds, chopped walnuts, each of which she knew separately, but on a plate, she did not know what to call it.

She didn't have to ask for this, but she still held up the brochure and asked the waiter: "I don't know this, can you introduce it to me?"

"Miss, this fruit milk stuff is the favorite way of eating foreigners, they call it salad, but everyone who comes here knows it. ”

Siqing nodded: "Okay, then give me a copy of this." ”

After ordering another cup of tea, the waiter took the list and left, and after a while brought the things up, similar to the picture, except that there were a few sticks on the fruit piece, and I don't know what it was for.

She stared at it for a moment, and noticed something missing.

He also called the waiter: "Why don't you give me chopsticks?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw other customers poking their heads out to look at her.

She looked around the heads suspiciously, and said again, "Where's the chopsticks?"

The heads that poked out went back with a smile, and the waiter also smiled: "Miss, our teahouse never provides chopsticks." ”

"How can I eat it without chopsticks?" she glanced at the fruit piece soaked in milk, and thought to herself that the pastry could be held with your hands.

The waiter didn't even bother to smile, and glanced at the sticks.

She still didn't understand, but the other party didn't explain.

Huai'an leaned over to her and said, "Tie the fruit pieces with a skewer." ”

"I see. It dawned on her.

The waiter smiled contemptuously and walked away with the booklet in his hand.

Huai'an knocked her head and said softly, "Don't be unhappy, we won't be here in the future." ”

"I'm not unhappy. She looked back at him, "If you don't know, you should ask, how can you know if you don't ask, I now think that in the future, this kind of new place should come more, if you don't see it, you don't know how big the outside world is." ”

After that, seeing Huai'an's sullen expression, she paused and lowered her voice: "Is it ...... I've disgraced you?"
