Chapter Seventy-Five: Uncle's Family (2)

At this time, a man with a big waist stood up, grabbed Feng Jun, and scolded with a smile: "Okay, you thin monkey, you robbed your eldest brother's gifts, are you tired of it?" After speaking, he smiled at Mei Yixuan's sister and brother, took out two natural pearls, and gave them to Mei Yixuan and Mei Shengjie respectively. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The rest of the people looked at Mei Yixuan's sister and brother, smirked, and kept introducing themselves, "I'm my uncle・・・・・・" "I'm my uncle・・・・・・" ・・・・・・ made a mess for a while.

Tong Zhuoxin smiled and said, "Okay, let's talk about any gifts at home." Then he walked in front of Mei Yixuan's sister and brother, bent down and hugged Mei Shengjie, hugged Mei Yixuan and said "go home", and walked forward.

Chunlan hugged a blue and blue cloth bag, which was a men's dress that she and Mama Ye had driven out last night, and this one couldn't be left behind.

Mei Yixuan turned to Merlin and said, "Brother Mei, you go back with the carriage first, and tell your grandmother that my brother and I will eat lunch at my uncle's house, and you will come and pick us up when you come over." ”

"Yes!" Merlin bowed and looked at the soldiers at the door of Tong's house, knowing that there was no problem with safety, so he went back with the carriage.

Mei Yixuan followed his uncle Tong Zhuoxin into the Tong family's house, and carefully looked at the layout of the house as he walked, and found that it was an extremely simple small courtyard.

The Tong family's house faces the street, with two black lacquered doors facing east, and a pair of brass doors on the doors. The original couplets on both sides have long been unable to see the handwriting on the original paper because of more than ten years of wind and rain, leaving only faint mottled traces.

As soon as you enter the gate, there is a one-line blue brick shadow wall. The central part of the shadow wall is carved with a diamond-shaped relief of bricks, and the gray tile wall cap on it resembles the roof and eaves of a room.

The Tong family's house is the simplest small courtyard, and the layout of the courtyard is clear at a glance. There are three main rooms, one bright and two dark. There are two rooms in the east and west wings, and three rooms in the inverted seats. Although the main door faces east, the main house sits north and faces south, and it is a serious pattern of northern architecture.

In the courtyard, more than 20 military men stood under the west wing, giving Mei Yixuan a feeling of being in the middle of modern comrades-in-arms. She bowed her head and smiled respectfully at them, and followed her uncle Tong Zhuoxin into the small living room of the main room.

The group of soldiers also followed to the eaves of the main house and introduced themselves noisily. Tong Zhuoxin didn't stop it, and let them keep making trouble. In the laughter, Mei Yixuan knew that the military man with big shoulders and round waist was called Zhang Dabao, the steady man was called Li Minghe, the honest and simple man was called Wang Dashan, and the ・・・・・・

Mei Yixuan took his younger brother to meet these military men one by one, and the two also received a lot of gifts by the way. After the trouble, these soldiers consciously retreated to the wing room and never came to make trouble again.

Chunlan also consciously stood under the eaves of the main house, waiting for her master's dispatch in peace.

She knew that Mei Yixuan's sister and brother would definitely tell her uncle about their situation in Meifu today, and she still stood far away, and the province should not hear it. However, she was really a little apprehensive in her heart, and she didn't know where the eldest lady was going today, and she even prepared men's clothes. I hope that my uncle can stop the eldest lady and don't let her make things out of control.

At this time, Mei Yixuan, who was sitting on a chair in the small living room, did not complain as Chunlan thought, but said her thoughts straight to the point.

"Uncle, Yixuan has something I want to ask my uncle for help. ”

"What's the matter? Is there not enough money to spend? Don't worry, my uncle didn't give it to you yesterday because there are too many people. Uncle called you here today, just to carry the people of Meifu behind your back. As he spoke, Tong Zhuoxin took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms and handed them to Mei Yixuan.

Mei Yixuan hesitated, but still took it. She looked at it, and the silver tickets with a face value of fifty taels seemed to have five hundred taels. She didn't know the price of goods in ancient times, but she could roughly guess the price of goods in Kyoto from the fact that the monthly silver of her dignified lady Meifu was ten taels.

She knew that her uncle and grandfather were not corrupt people, and these silver bills must have been accumulated by her grandmother and uncle over the years. Moreover, it must have cost a lot of money for the uncle and aunt to get married, but they were able to come up with five hundred taels of silver at once, which shows that the grandfather and uncle have not forgotten Aunt Tong. This realization made Mei Yixuan a little excited and down-to-earth, feeling that he was finally no longer alone here, and it was much better to have an ally than to fight alone.

Therefore, she took the silver ticket and said gratefully: "Thank you uncle and grandfather! To be honest, Yixuan is indeed very short of money at present, and he really needs the help of silver taels." Uncle and grandfather's kindness Yi Xuan accepted, but Yi Xuan needed his uncle's help right now, but this is not the ・・・・・・"

In the end, Mei Yixuan was a little hesitant. In ancient times, people's ideological concepts were still very backward, and would it be too shocking for them to go out in men's clothes? Will my uncle agree? However, this is the only chance for me at present, and I must fight for it if I succeed or not.

Tong Zhuoxin asked, "What's the matter?"

Mei Yixuan looked at Tong Zhuoxin and opened his mouth with determination: "Uncle, I want to wear men's clothes to the street, I hope my uncle can agree." ”

"Ha・・・・・・ I originally wanted to go to the street, it's simple, my uncle can accompany you there・・・・・・ wait, what are you talking about? Wear men's clothes? What is the matter? Isn't this nonsense? What do you have Uncle to do for you, you can't ・・・・・・・be a girl to go in person" Tong Zhuoxin reacted and immediately refused.

"Uncle, you are only in Kyoto for a while, and my mother and Xiaojie and I can't rely on my uncle forever in the future. Uncle rest assured, Yixuan will not let his mother and Xiaojie be bullied, and will slowly become stronger. Mei Yixuan looked at Tong Zhuoxin seriously, the smile on his face was still the same, but his tone was full of murder.

Tong Zhuoxin was speechless for a moment, and there was a tingling pain in his heart. Yes, he can only be in Kyoto for a few days, what can he do? Even if his father and him return to Kyoto, no matter the power or financial resources, they will not be able to compete with the Mei Mansion. This is also the reason why he returned in vain yesterday, and it is also the reason why he can't seek justice for his sisters in the face of power.

While he was helpless, he naturally felt the change in Mei Yixuan's aura. He looked at Mei Yixuan again in surprise and seriously, but he felt a murderous aura that only a soldier had in this niece, which made him suddenly puzzled.

Strange, how can a girl raised in a deep boudoir have such a powerful aura, is there something wrong with this child?

Of course, Mei Yixuan noticed Tong Zhuoxin's suspicious gaze, so he met his gaze very calmly, and explained lightly: "Uncle, if I am as cowardly and timid as before, I'm afraid you won't see me anymore." ”

Tong Zhuoxin's face immediately became grim, and he was covered with a layer of severe frost: "What's wrong? You tell me everything about your mother and daughter in Meifu, even if your uncle is soft-spoken, and there is still the law, I don't believe that justice can be done!" )
