Chapter 190: Help to the end
After Yumei Qing finished speaking, seeing Jiang Li's entangled expression, she couldn't help frowning into a heap, and pouted: "What's so embarrassing about you!" You won't agree to help me, either because you don't think I'm a friend at all, or because you have a crush on your cousin. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info If it's the latter, as long as you generously admit it, you don't help me, and I don't blame you. ”
Jiang Li shook his head with a smile: "It's because I really treat you as a friend that I can't let you be so impulsive." You know that you have been going back and forth with him for a long time, and if he refuses to accept you—"
"Don't worry about me! It's okay if he doesn't accept me, whether I can't marry after my own reputation is ruined, it's none of anyone's business, it's my own decision, and I won't blame anyone for any result. Yumei had a firm expression on her delicate and delicate face, and a pair of small white hands were clenched into fists, and her words were resolute.
Mei Zixuan's decision to go to sea this time was very sudden, and his family didn't have time to consider Zhang Luo's family affairs for him. And he himself called his father and said that he would not consider getting married for the time being in the past few years. Therefore, Jiang Li thought that the Mei family would propose to the Yu family, and she just thought about it alone.
But now, Yu Meiqing came to Meihuawu and said that she already knew that Mei Zixuan was going to sea, and she asked Jiang Li to help, and secretly took her on the boat when she went to see Mei Zixuan off.
Jiang Li had to admire Yu Meiqing's courage. But what she is worried about is that if she is afraid that if she has affection and one is unintentional, won't her kindness to help others become harmful?
On one side is a cousin, the other is a good sister, what will happen to the cousin when she finds out that Yu Meiqing was sent on the boat by her Jiang Li, she doesn't think about it first, but as soon as Yu Meiqing leaves, won't the Yu family come to the door to find trouble? Speaking of which, in addition to the crime of abducting and elopement, did the Mei family only propose to the Yu family?
Jiang Li smiled bitterly at Yu Meiqing with a smile, and he couldn't say anything if he promised to help. - Speaking of which, when it came to the end, she was also separated, on one side was her mother-in-law, and on the other hand, she had just met with a handkerchief.
Although Yu Meiqing helped her a lot, in addition to considering her cousin's feelings, she also had to take care of the face of her uncle's family.
Seeing that Jiang Li didn't open his mouth with a bitter face, Yumei was anxious, and came up and pulled Jiang Li's arm to be coquettish: "I'm not afraid of your jokes, I'm coming to beg you like this, you can help me!" Who else can I ask for this but you, I can't ask Mei Yingxue to help me, right? In that case, I won't be able to hold my head up in the Mei family from now on. ”
Jiang Li is happy, this Yumei Qing still thinks a lot and far.
Yumei Qing didn't blush when she saw Jiang Li's ridicule, and took out a burden from behind, "Laugh, laugh, just let you laugh enough!" Look, I've got my baggage ready, I'll leave you here today, and you'll find a way to get me on the boat then." He stuffed the burden into Jiang Li's hand.
During the time spent with Yumeiqing, Jiang Li also knew some of her hobbies and temperament: this person was spoiled by a family when he was a child, and he did his own thing, he didn't love female celebrities, he didn't like piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry and songs, but he loved to ride and shoot and travel around, (this temperament is very tempered with Jiang Li, so the two gradually fell in love.) The family was raised entirely as a boy.
Jiang Li held Yu Meiqing's burden in his hand, and his tone loosened: "I can help you, if your brother comes to the door to ask for someone, how can I reply?" ”
"Then don't worry, I will leave a letter with him, just say that I secretly got on the boat by myself, and it has nothing to do with others." Yumei Qing blinked and smiled, with a very iron-hearted tone.
Jiang Li was speechless. Everyone has the right to pursue their own happiness, and since Yumei Qing is hard-hearted, it is useless to say more by herself. So he nodded yes. "Okay, I'll help you to the end, and let Xiaoxiang send you on the boat then."
On the day of the trip, Mei Yuanshan took his family to send Mei Zixuan to the pier.
The sky is high and the sea is calm, the Mei family's fleet has already been loaded with full of goods, the salty sea breeze is blowing, and the dock is full of people loading and unloading goods. Jiang Li brought two girls to see him off.
Jiangnan has a lot of fleets going to sea, and the profits made from a trip to sea are indeed amazing, but the risks at sea are difficult to predict, and how many cargo ships will never return. Mei Yuanshan earnestly told his son, and Mrs. Mei was with her side in tears. Jiang Li and Mei Yingxue were also on the side to be sentimental, and taking advantage of this free time, Xiaoxiang took Yumei Qingchao to help carry the luggage to the boat among the servants of the Mei family.
Mei Zixuan said very little, and said goodbye to her family one by one and went to the boat. Watching the fleet lift anchor, Mei Zixuan's dark clothes were blown by the sea breeze, and his expression could not be seen clearly with his long hair.
The boat gradually moved away, and the figure standing on the bow of the ship standing still and staring at the pier for a long time, dressed in the sunrise glow of the sea just out of the water, made people unable to see the loneliness on his face.
Jiang Li naturally couldn't see it. She was thinking, if her cousin found Yu Meiqing on the boat, would she let people return?
On the way back from the wharf farewell, Mei Yuanshan and his wife went back with their family servants first, leaving Jiang Li and Mei Yingxue behind. Mei Yingxue heard from Xiaoxiang that Jiang Li was carrying a sleeve arrow, and she wanted it too. took advantage of this time to come out, and was about to ask Xiaoxiang to pick it for her, so she invited Jiang Li to accompany her.
Jiang Li saw that Xiaoxiang was bored if she didn't come out for a long time, so she was happy to accompany her. The two abandoned the carriage and horse, and one took a girl and chose along the arms shop of one family.
After choosing a few shops, Jiang Li was tired of walking, so he rested at a tea shop on the side of the road, and said that he would meet here for a while, Jiang Li asked for a pot of tea, sat down and waited for them to go shopping again.
The tea shop is not big, separated by a bamboo curtain, and Jiang Li picked an inconspicuous corner to sit down.
There are a lot of rumors that you can't usually hear in the teahouse, and Jiang Li just sat down and heard a man's voice in the compartment saying an amazing news.
The man said, "Da Yan just received so much silk and satin, gold and silver from us, and as soon as he turned around, his elite soldiers approached our border again. According to the news from the north, Dayan has tried to cross the border several times in the north, and there have been several clashes with our troops stationed in the north. Judging by the situation, Dayan is really going to do something to our Da Song. ”
A voice that seemed to have been heard somewhere took over: "Now it is the regent of the eighth prince, and he has ruled with an iron fist since he came up, cracking down on corruption in the capital, and letting all localities strictly investigate the reselling." Listening to the new envoy, unlike today's previous grievances against Dayan, the Eighth Prince has always advocated a hard fight with Dayan, and this time, maybe there will really be a fight. ”
Jiang Li heard it, and the owner of the latter sentence was surnamed Yu, Yu Qingyuan, the elder brother of Yu Meiqing, who had just been sent away by her.
Unexpectedly, Yu Qingyuan was sitting next door at this time, and Jiang Li couldn't help but feel a little weak. However, when she thought that Yu Meiqing said that she would leave a book to explain to her brother and would not implicate anyone, Jiang Li became a little bolder, and calmed down and listened.
