Chapter 261: Get Out
"No!" Ding Qiurong refused directly without thinking about it, her tone was stiff, and her face was ugly.
"Why?" Sang Jingwen thought that her mother would disagree, but she didn't expect to refuse so simply, there was no room for maneuver at all, so the tone of the rhetorical question was aggrieved, "My daughter heard that the City God Temple is very lively, and my daughter wants to go and see it." ”
Sang Zhongwen was also taken aback by his mother's refusal tone, and also looked at his mother inquiringly. Only then did she find that a trace of panic and fear flashed in her mother's eyes, although it was fleeting, but she still caught it.
She thought carefully about the recent situation in the house, nothing had happened, and her mother was fine at dinner, could it be that something happened that she didn't know? No matter what happened, since her mother didn't want them to go out, it must be for their good.
So, Sang Zhongwen pulled his sister and coaxed softly: "Jing'er, it's good that my sister is accompanying you to see the lanterns in the house? The lanterns in the house are also very beautiful, and you can also row in the small lake·······
"Don't! I'm going out!" Sang Jingwen saw that her mother and sister didn't approve of going out of the house to play, and she became more and more aggrieved, "It's easy to look forward to the Mid-Autumn Festival, people just want to go to see the City God Temple!"
Otherwise, the official ladies with deep backgrounds will have something to say at the next party. Especially Wu Yanya and Cai Chufen, every time they meet, they are superior to others, and they already look down on her identity as a businesswoman. If it weren't for the Sang family's century-old reputation and fame in Lingnan Province, where would those official ladies take a look at them?
Sang Zhongwen knew his sister's careful thoughts, so he had to look at his mother helplessly, and pleaded: "Mother, my daughter will look at my sister, don't worry!"
Knowing the daughter Mo Ruomu, how could Ding Qiurong not know the little daughter's competitive thoughts? However, they were originally born in a merchant family, and although the name of the medical family is good, in the final analysis, the doctor is a middle-ninth rate, and his status is still lower, how can he compare with a serious official lady? This is also a matter of no choice.
Seeing the aggrieved appearance of the youngest daughter, and seeing the eldest daughter pleading, Ding Qiurong's heart couldn't help but soften, so she slowed down her voice and said, "It's not that I don't want you to go out to play, but there must be a lot of people tonight, and you are a fun-loving person, if something accidentally goes wrong, won't it cost your mother's life?"
As soon as Sang Jingwen heard that there was a door, she immediately raised her hand and swore: "Mother, Jing'er must listen to her sister's words, she won't run around, where her sister is, Jing'er will be there!"
"Okay," Ding Qiurong didn't want her inexplicable emotions to affect the good mood of her two daughters, so she had to make a compromise and earnestly advised: "Zhongwen, you must take good care of your sister when you go outside, don't go to those chaotic places, you must come back before Hai Shizhong!"
"Yes, my daughter remembers, mother rest assured, we will definitely come back early!" Sang Zhongwen replied solemnly.
After that, Ding Qiurong sent the big girl Hongmei next to her, so that Sang Zhongwen's two big maids Calyx and Hua Ling, and Sang Jingwen's big girl Chunlan and Chunya followed, and sent Sang Yishan, the leader of the best guards in the house, with ten guards to protect them, before letting them go out.
At this time, Mei Yixuan, who returned to the mansion, also encountered the same problem as Ding Qiurong.
"Sister, why did you come back so late?" Mei Shengjie immediately rushed out when Mei Yixuan's figure appeared in his mother's yard, stopping in front, looking like he wanted to say something.
"What's the matter, do you have something to find your sister?" Mei Yixuan lovingly pinched her brother's already chubby little face, and the greasy touch made her can't help but stay on her face for a while, and asked with a smile.
"Sister, I heard that it's very lively outside tonight!" Mei Shengjie's eyes flashed with excitement and yearning, "Let's go out for a walk too, okay?"
Mei Yixuan took his younger brother and walked into the hall, and asked as he walked, "Do you really want to go?"
"Well, I really want to! hehe······" Mei Shengjie's little head nodded again and again like a chicken pecking rice, and rubbed it in his sister's arms flatteringly.
"Okay, let's eat first, let's talk about it after eating!" Mei Yixuan said and took his younger brother into the restaurant.
Chunlan, who was waiting on the side, hurriedly greeted her: "Young Master, are you back?"
"Well, you're back, what are you doing?" Mei Yixuan asked casually when she saw her mother sitting on a chair under the bright candle flame and was instructing Snow Lotus and Kapok to do needlework.
Chunlan said with a smile: "Madame wants to make two autumn shirts for the eldest young master and the second young master, and is teaching snow lotus and kapok how to embroider." ”
Tong Hongying had already stood up when they came in, came over and looked her up and down several times, and when she saw that she was well, she asked worriedly: "Is things not going well? Why did you come back so late? That patient is okay, is he tired? Come over and eat." ”
Snow Lotus and Kapok also hurriedly came over to greet Mei Yixuan, and then put the meals in the food box on the table one by one, only then did they glance at Chunlan enviously and retreat respectfully.
Since the lady and the others came, Chunlan has always been in front of them during the meal, and I don't know when the two of them will get this honor.
Mei Yixuan's mother and daughter began to eat under Chunlan's service.
Chunlan waited for their mother and daughter to eat by herself every meal, and Mei Yixuan didn't listen to what she said, so she had to let her go.
Tonight's meal is very light, mainly because the Guo family already knows the tastes of the three masters, except for the second young master, who is a little heavy-mouthed, Mrs. and Mei Yixuan both prefer light tastes. Moreover, the lunch meal was very rich, so in the evening, Guo's mung bean porridge was steamed with a fresh sea bass and made a few seasonal side dishes, which were light and nutritious.
At the dinner table, Mei Yixuan sandwiched a piece of steamed sea bass meat for her mother, and asked casually, "Mother, do you want to go outside to see the excitement tonight?"
Tong Hongying was completely unprepared, seeing Mei Yixuan's expression was very serious, and seeing her son's eager look, she couldn't help but smile and said, "I won't go, you can take Xiao Zhuo to play." Play more, but don't come back too late, stay safe!"
Mei Yixuan tried to persuade: "Mother, today is August 15, I heard that it is very lively outside, there is no need to be in the north here, there is a lot of exquisiteness, let's go and see what is different from our north, it can be regarded as an eye-opener, okay?"
Tong Hongying couldn't help but be a little moved by what her daughter said, she went out to play before she became a concubine for Mei Yunchen. Since she entered the Mei Mansion, she has gone out once, and the memory of that time is very painful in her heart!
