He could see at a glance that the residence of Mrs. Gu should be the best courtyard in the entire Li family.

Not to mention the neat pruning of flowers and plants, is the courtyard of the two fish farming tank is a rare white marble carving, these two large vats do not say how the jade material, that is, the carver can see at a glance that it must be carved by a master craftsman, and this carving alone can be worth a lot of silver.

Looking at the crystal clear glass inlaid on the window, Zhong Mingpeng was born as a merchant, and he also estimated the price in his heart, and these windows alone were worth tens of thousands of silver.

Just looking at these points, Zhong Mingpeng also knew that his niece must have a good life in the Li family, and he also felt a little more grateful to the Li family.

Therefore, Zhong Mingpeng said to Li Luan'er before entering the house of the eldest lady of the Gu family: "The eldest lady of the Li family, I left home to join the army when my niece was a child, and I don't know how she looks and what her temperament is. ”

Li Luan'er pursed her lips and smiled lightly before saying, "Uncle doesn't have to be polite, that's my sister-in-law, she gave birth to my nephew, so I naturally have to take good care of it." ”

For a while, the two entered the house, Zhong Mingpeng sat on the seat outside the screen, Li Luan'er bypassed the screen and helped Mrs. Gu, who was half-lying on the bed, to help her up, and stuffed a pillow behind her back, and whispered: "Sister-in-law's body is not complete now, don't be sad, after all, now that my uncle is back, my sister-in-law will be able to rely on it in the future, this is a happy event, and I should be happy." ”

Mrs. Gu nodded and said, "I can save it." ”

Li Luan'er left the house with a smile, leaving Zhong Mingpeng and Mrs. Gu to talk.

She only left here, Zhong Mingpeng was a little uneasy, he hadn't seen him for many years, Zhong Mingpeng didn't know what his sister's temper and temperament were, and he felt that he hadn't even brought back a message for so many years, and he was indeed ashamed of his niece, so he was a little more timid.

After coughing dryly twice, Zhong Mingpeng smiled and said, "Wan'er, I'm your uncle, do you remember me?" ”

When Zhong Mingpeng left, Mrs. Gu was only four or five years old, where do you remember his appearance, Mrs. Gu thought for a long time before remembering a vague shadow, she remembered that when she was a child, there was often a handsome man who took her to play, often sneaked out with her to buy food, and would lie on the ground to ride her horse, it seemed that the man loved her very much, and now that I think about it, it should be my uncle.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Gu was a little excited: "Uncle, you ...... When I was a child, I often bought osmanthus for pain, and my mother was afraid that I would eat bad teeth, so I trained you......"

"Wan'er still remembers me?" Zhong Mingpeng couldn't help but stand up for a while, pacing outside the screen: "Wan'er, you like to eat osmanthus candy the most, and you also like to eat pea cake and Zhang Ji's fried spring rolls, I often took you to buy them when you were a child...... When you were three years old, I took you to climb a tree and almost fell you off, so my sister ignored me for several days......"

His words evoked many memories of Mrs. Gu, and Mrs. Gu's eyes filled with tears for a while, and she was dripping: "Uncle, why have you been gone for so many years, and now you are coming back, I ...... I ......"

She thought, if her uncle was here, why would she ask Aunt Fu to bully her like this, that is, her father was afraid and didn't dare to be partial, but she thought that if her uncle was there, she couldn't say that she had married into the Xu family at this time, where would she have a marriage with Li Chun, and for a while she didn't know whether to complain that Zhong Mingpeng had ignored her for so many years, or should she thank Zhong Mingpeng for not returning it, so that she touched Li Chun.

Zhong Mingpeng thought of what Li Luan'er said about the bad things that Mrs. Gu had in the Gu family, and he felt even more ashamed, and he was even more at a loss for a while: "Wan'er don't cry, it's all because my uncle is not good, my uncle should come back early, my uncle should die, let my little Wan'er suffer." ”

As he spoke, Zhong Mingpeng slapped himself in the face, and his right cheek immediately swollen.

Mrs. Gu also heard this crisp sound, and almost fell out of bed in a hurry: "Uncle......"

"Wan'er!" Zhong Mingpeng raised his feet, and thought that his niece was now in confinement, so he sighed and sat down again: "Don't worry, my uncle came back this time and said that I have to stay for a few years, with my uncle here, no one wants to bully you again, that Fu Guihua, hum, my uncle will be angry with her for you." ”

Mrs. Gu smiled, she could hear from Zhong Mingpeng's words, her uncle was very caring for her, this care was sincere, Mrs. Gu didn't feel the love from her relatives for a long time, and her heart was warm for a while.

"I'm not afraid of my uncle." Mrs. Gu said with a smile, and then asked, "Uncle has been okay all these years?" Have you come back with an aunt for me, I have a cousin and a cousin......"

"Yes, yes." Zhong Mingpeng nodded vigorously: "Uncle is good, I also asked you for my aunt, it is the daughter of the Ying family of the big family over there in Panyu, Lingnan, this Ying family moved to Lingnan with the emperor of the previous dynasty, and now it has laid a foundation in Lingnan, and it can be regarded as a big family in the local area. Wait for Ming'er, I'll ask her to bring your cousin and cousin to show you. ”

"Okay, okay." When Mrs. Gu heard that her uncle was now married and had children and daughters, she was also happy for her uncle for a while, and couldn't help but smile and nodded: "If A-Niang sees what her uncle looks like now, she will definitely be very happy." ”

Speaking of his sister, Zhong Mingpeng's face darkened again: "Gu Cheng, this old horseman is really annoying, when I left, he promised me to take good care of you, but look at how he will take care of you...... I really regret marrying my sister to him, and wait, sooner or later, I will make him look good. ”

Mrs. Gu has been cold-hearted by Gu Cheng's actions, hearing Zhong Mingpeng scold Gu Cheng like this, she didn't have the slightest wave in her heart, she said lightly: "Mention him to do something, after all, I am doing well now, and the Gu family has been broken, whether it is good or bad, I will not bother him." ”

Just this sentence made Zhong Mingpeng ruthless, and he would definitely clean up Gu Cheng when he went back.

can make his own daughter cold to such an extent, Zhong Mingpeng doesn't have to think about it to know how Gu Cheng has treated Gu Da Niang harshly over the years.

After talking for a while, Zhong Mingpeng got up: "Okay Wan'er, my uncle remembered you, and I inquired as soon as I returned to the capital, and learned that you were married, and I didn't even go to the Gu family to see you, and I didn't prepare anything, and when Ming'er and your aunt came, my uncle brought you some good things, and your uncle didn't give you a dowry when you got married, these should all be dowries, and you are not allowed to do it when the time comes." ”

Mrs. Gu nodded: "I naturally want the things that my uncle sent, uncle, when will you buy me Zhang Ji's fried spring rolls again, I want to eat tightly." ”

Zhong Mingpeng smiled: "As long as Zhang Ji is still there, my uncle will buy it for you, buy a lot, and let our little Wan'er also satisfy her hunger." ”

After a few more jokes, Zhong Mingpeng saw that it was not too early, so he said goodbye: "You recuperate first, and your uncle has to go back to clean up the house, and your uncle will come to see you again after you are full moon." ”

"Uncle walks slowly." Although she couldn't see it through the screen, Mrs. Gu still stood up and nodded to Zhong Mingpeng.

Zhong Mingpeng laughed a few times, turned his hands behind his back, turned around and walked out of the room with square steps.

Outside the house, Li Luan'er was sitting in the shade of the flowers and playing with the Nine Rings, and when she saw Zhong Mingpeng coming out, she quickly stood up and said with a smile: "Uncle, the family has prepared wine and food, so uncle can have some food." ”

Zhong Mingpeng waved his hand: "No need......"

"The military masters you brought are drinking, you might as well use some of them." Li Luan'er smiled and stayed with guests.

Zhong Mingpeng scolded when he heard this: "These things, before coming, I told them not to drink, who knew that when they came, they drank again, and waited, Lao Tzu couldn't spare them." ”

Li Luan'er smiled: "This is the capital, not a border pass, there is no war, it doesn't matter if you drink or not, my uncle doesn't have to be so harsh, by the way, I have good peach blossom wine at home, as well as sorghum wine that is as clear as a knife, and the mellow daughter Hong, the wine bought from Waifan...... In order to be worthy of these wines, my brother collected many kinds of wine glasses, and my uncle tried them. ”

It's okay if she doesn't say this, this said, the greedy Zhong Mingpeng's saliva almost flowed down.

"This ...... Okay, let's taste your wine if it's good. Zhong Mingpeng thought about it and agreed.

Li Luan'er hurriedly asked someone to serve the wine and food, and introduced while pouring the wine: "If my brother is at home, I will definitely accompany my uncle to drink, but unfortunately my brother is now at the border, and my sister-in-law is not around...... My sister-in-law has not had a good appetite since she was pregnant, and my brother made this sweet and sour fish for my sister-in-law to eat, and the fish made did not have a little fishy smell, and it was sweet and sour...... This vegetarian ball is also made by my brother from wild vegetables with some medicinal value, in order to replenish my sister-in-law's body......"

Li Luan'er is so shrewd, in order to add points to her brother in front of Zhong Mingpeng, she said a few good things about Li Chun from time to time, most of which were about how Li Chun loved Mrs. Gu and how to make delicious food for her.

Zhong Mingpeng naturally knew the meaning of her words, but he really had a better impression of Li Chun in his heart, which of today's men is willing to cook for his wife? What's more, Li Chunxia is so willing, changing the way to make delicious food for Mrs. Gu, thinking about it, Li Chun must love Mrs. Gu very much.

The best destination for a woman is to marry a man who loves her, and at this point Zhong Ming Peng also understood that after listening to these words, he was more at ease with the life of Mrs. Gu in the Li family.

After tasting a few bites of food, Zhong Mingpeng took a pot of wine and was about to pour it, Li Luan'er hurriedly got up: "Uncle, let the juniors do this." ”

She picked up a pot of wine: "This is sorghum wine, drink this with bronze jue ......"

Li Luan'er found the bronze jue and poured a cup for Zhong Mingpeng: "Uncle, how about you taste it?" ”

Zhong Mingpeng took the cup and was stunned for a moment: "Is there any such thing as drinking?" ”

"Natural!" Li Luan'er smiled and told the theory of the set of wine utensils, and Zhong Mingpeng, who listened to it, sighed in admiration: "As soon as I heard that the virtuous niece is a person of good wine, otherwise, I wouldn't have said such a thing, you are right, this good wine must be accompanied by a good cup, the cup can increase the color of the wine, good, it is indeed good." ”R1152
