"Four sisters, four sisters......"

Zhou Mingshan was pulled back into her senses, "What did you say?"

Zhou Mingzhang had a bitter face: "I want to ask the fourth sister, is there any way?"

Zhou Mingshan laughed, it seems that the second brother is also deeply rooted in love and made a fool, and would actually say such a thing to ask her a person who has not left the boudoir.

Zhou Mingzhang also reacted, and smiled wryly: "I'm sorry, fourth sister, I'm not ......"

"Okay, I know, you go out quickly, don't toss anymore, I'll think about it first!"

Zhou Mingzhang's face was full of joy in an instant, and he waved at Zhou Mingshan again and again: "Then please leave the fourth sister!" After speaking, he ran away with Zhaoxi.

"This second brother, it's really ......" Zhou Mingshan smiled bitterly, she didn't say anything, it became like this, if it doesn't work, it still depends on her?

Shaking his head, Zhou Mingshan called Su Xin and them and went back to his room.

"The fourth sister is back!"

Inside the house, Meng Yuechan was holding the embroidery bandage and concentrating on embroidering something, when she heard the voice, she raised her head and smiled.

Zhou Mingshan agreed and sat beside her.

On the embroidered bandage is a handkerchief with hundreds of butterflies wearing flowers, and the colorful butterfly wings are as lifelike as if they came to life under her hands, Zhou Mingshan sighed to herself.

"Sister Meng is so skillful, even the embroidery girl in the house is afraid that she can't catch up!"

Meng Yuechan's face turned red suddenly, she stopped what she was doing, and lowered her head, "Fourth sister praises falsely, how can my little skill be compared with those ladies!"

"Sister Meng doesn't have to be humble......" Zhou Mingshan praised sincerely, and when the corner of her eye looked at Meng Yuechan's tightly clenched fingers, she paused.

Could it be that Meng Yuechan doesn't want to be compared with Xiuniang?

Annoyed, Zhou Mingshan had to change the topic and said with a smile: "Sister Meng doesn't know, my mother often asks me to learn from Sister Meng!"

"The fourth sister said and laughed, how can I learn anything?" Meng Yuechan seemed to recover a little, glanced at Zhou Mingshan, and brushed the broken hair on her forehead, "It's that the sisters in the house are all excellent!" said and began to pick up the work in her hand again.

Pumping, pulling, pulling...... The small embroidery needle seemed to be spiritual in her hand, and as her fingers went in and out, the movements flowed smoothly, as if it were a lady's painting.

The second brother's vision is really good!

Zhou Mingshan's heart moved, and she was about to test the temptation, but was interrupted.

"Fourth girl, Miss Meng, you can eat!"

As Su Xin's words fell, Meng Yuechan's girl Xing'er also came in to serve.

Watching the girls come and go, Zhou Mingshan secretly sighed that she had lost the opportunity, but then she thought about it again, and fortunately she didn't mention it, otherwise she would surprise others.

After dinner, the two went to Mrs. Hou Yang to sit down again, and then came back to rest.

It's a pity that until a group of people left the courtyard and wanted to return to the Xingyuan Marquis Mansion, Zhou Mingshan didn't figure out how to deal with Zhou Mingzhang's matter. It's not that she didn't want to test Meng Yuechan's mind, but with her current identity, no matter what, she shouldn't worry about this matter, even if Meng Yuechan is intentional, she can't get around Meng Liu's family, the order of her parents, the words of the matchmaker, how can their little children do, it is impossible to elope.

After all, we still have to get the consent of Ma and Meng Liu, otherwise there will be no good results.

It seems that she still has to persuade her second brother, lest he do irreparable things in a hurry.

As the date of the undergraduate palace examination approached, the imperial court's western expedition army was finally about to set off, and Zhou Mingshan's half-mentioned heart was finally put down, and the eldest uncle was not transferred.

Although he was sure that Mu Yuting was cheating on her before, after all, he was the eldest uncle who had always loved her since she was a child, and she inevitably had to worry about accidents, so she could finally feel at ease.

The days passed slowly, his father Zhou Ze was busy preparing for the palace exam, and Yuan began to be busy preparing for his uncle and aunt to clean up and decorate the room, because he had received a letter from Shandong, saying that her eldest brother Yuan Wenkai would set off to come to the capital as soon as the road thawed after the New Year, and he thought it should be almost now.

may be because his mother's family is coming, Yuan's mood is obviously much better.

"Fu'er, what are you doing standing stupidly, don't you know your cousin?"

This is the first time Zhou Mingshan has seen Yuan Zheng in the past few days, in the past, Yuan Zheng went into the inner courtyard at most once a day to ask for peace, but in recent days, I don't know what is going on, I have to run several times a day, either to send things or to accompany Yuan's family, and it is better to have one more person to take care of her.

In this regard, of course, Yuan Shi liked to hear it, smiled and agreed, kept praising him for his filial piety, and often called Zhou Mingshan over, saying that she was not energetic and asked Zhou Mingshan to help accompany the guests.

After a lot of times, Zhou Mingshan also understood, obviously the Yuan family wished that Yuan Zheng could come a few more times, after all, there was such a plan, Yuan Zheng probably guessed it, and he was happier to run a few more times tacitly.

Regarding Yuan Zheng's enthusiasm, Zhou Mingshan had certainly noticed it. This life is different from her previous life, although she had some bad feelings towards Yuan Zheng earlier, but after Yuan Zheng's help last time and so many obvious overtures, she is not hard-hearted, and it is impossible for her to be completely indifferent. Besides, they are cousins no matter how they say, if this is their mother's wish, then she won't mind so much, the most important thing is to make her mother happy.

"How come, Fu'er just thinks that her mother is very beautiful today, and she is stunned for a while!"

Knowing that her mother was deliberately teasing her to create an atmosphere, Zhou Mingshan was still a little embarrassed, so she had to change the topic.

Although she is her own daughter, Yuan has always been a thin-skinned person, and when she was praised like this in front of her nephew, she couldn't help but blush, and glanced at Zhou Mingshan, "Bad girl, what are you talking about, beware of Zheng'er jokes!"

Yuan Zheng grinned and said, "No joke, my cousin is telling the truth, my aunt is indeed beautiful, and she is as ...... as my cousin."

Before he finished speaking, Yuan Zheng blushed first.

"Poof......

Yuan Shi was amused by his appearance, and smiled at him, "You kid, you are really solid-eyed!" said and glanced at Zhou Mingshan playfully.

Zhou Mingshan was helpless, pretending to be shy and lowering her head, and secretly rolled her eyes.

I don't know if it's because of pregnancy, my mother seems to be always happy about this kind of thing recently, as if she can see Zhou Mingshan's shy appearance and think it's funny, so she wants to tease her all the time, in order for Yuan's family to be happy, she also has to dress up and entertain her relatives.

Yuan Zheng next to him also smiled, his heart was full of joy, and his aunt was obviously happy to see their affairs come to pass.

Looking at the black pressed hair on the opposite side, as well as a little bit of white jade-like skin exposed under the hairline, Yuan Zheng suddenly felt that his heart was beating a little fast, as if it was about to jump out of his throat, he couldn't help but close his eyes, turned his head and listened intently to the conversation between the mother and daughter over there, until it was meal time, he calmed down, but he didn't feel hungry in front of the table full of exquisite dishes, and his heart and eyes were full.
