The moonlight is dim tonight, and the candle flame is running out. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
The room was originally dark and very dim, Lin Saburo was a piece of black skin, he was still wearing a dark robe today, Mei Xueyan couldn't see where the person was.
Pull up the cotton thread with bamboo tweezers, and the room will be brighter.
"Do you see it now?"
Lin Saburo held back his temper and asked again.
Mei Xueyan finally saw it clearly, and also noticed that Lin Sanlang's face was a little cleaner, and after losing his beard, he was finally not a sloppy and unkempt appearance, not as ugly as Mei Xueyan imagined, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his skin was still as black as ever, and Mei Xueyan was not used to it for a while.
"You'd better keep your beard up......"
Lin Saburo raised his head and said, "Don't you just like little white-faced scholars." β
"......"
But no matter how much you toss, you're just a black face.
Mei Xueyan was overjoyed, laughed for a while, and felt that it was inappropriate, she already planned to have less to do with him in her heart, but she got along day and night, and she would always get acquainted, and it was not a way to go on like this.
Mei Xueyan straightened her face and asked, "Is there something wrong with you?" β
"Oh......" Lin Saburo took his hands and pretended to be chic, "This is for you." β
He pointed to the burden on the low table, left a word, and turned away neatly.
"Whatever you want! I, Lin Saburo, rely on myself, not inherit that old family business! β
Mei Xueyan looked at the burden with a lot of silver tickets, Lin Sanlang didn't seem to be so hateful, he had a poor temperament, his heart was not bad, he was good at fighting, but he was usually too childish.
He handed over these burdens to her to take care of, but there was no temptation, and then Mei Xueyan put them back intact, she planned to move out of the Lin Mansion, since she wanted to cut off the relationship, she couldn't accept his favor.
"Did he recognize my identity?"
This time, he handed over the silver ticket to himself, expressing that he was a man who stood up to the sky, the pillar of the family, and appeared capable in front of his own women. Mei Xueyan's sentence "The Lin family is not necessarily yours" probably stimulated him, Lin Sanlang's behavior was a little naΓ―ve, but it was not annoying.
It's a pity that they weren't all the way.
It's still early to break it off, Mei Xueyan thought, the longer it drags on, the more inappropriate it is, she lives in the Lin Mansion, although she has never received much favor from the Lin family, but the Lu family began to give her a monthly example, and now Lin Saburo and her bow their heads and don't look up, the longer the time, the more complicated it becomes.
When the books at Chengfang's bookstore are printed and printed and she earns money, she will go out independently, and the Lu family will pay her back the money and not owe each other.
"How can I get the marriage contract back?"
Now that Mei Xueyan has a reputation for showing off her talents, she is no longer controlled by others, she has the right to refuse marriage, but she just rashly brought it up, and the Lu family may be embarrassed, in case the lion opens her mouth to ask for compensation, she is temporarily unable to pay.
In the end, it's still silver, and it's hard to move an inch without money.
With these thoughts in mind, Mei Xueyan also fell asleep in a cranky way.
She had a nightmare, dreaming that she was free, and she also met the person she liked, the other party was dignified and scholarly, and swore not to have three wives and four concubines, the two were in love, Mei Xueyan sat in a sedan chair to marry him, but when she lifted her hijab, she suddenly appeared in front of Lin Sanlang's resolute and dark face, he was wearing the groom's official robe, a lady.
"It's horrible......"
Mei Xueyan was woken up by the sound of cannonballs, patted her chest and found that she was sweating, and then looked outside, it was already three poles in the sun.
After washing and dressing, it was almost noon, and the noisy people in the house had almost dispersed, leaving behind a red confetti of cannonballs, and the smell of smoke still lingered in the air.
"The girl is awake, come here!"
The Lin family was all there, and the Lu family beckoned to her with a kind face.
"I see that you were tired yesterday, so I didn't let anyone wake you up, Master Xu just left, he came to congratulate, and there is a congratulatory gift from the county magistrate, you can come and see."
Mei Xueyan brought a roll of good news tied with a red ribbon, didn't open it, and her eyes fell on the congratulatory gift of Wu County's order.
According to the regulations of Wu County's order over the years, when he was admitted to Xiucai, he would usually send someone to send a whole pig, three horses of cotton cloth and a horse of silk, as well as 100 catties of grain and 50 catties of white flour.
Mei Xueyan looked at these sincere gifts, especially the poor fat pig, whose limbs were tied to the penny and screamed, which was festive and funny.
For ordinary people, this is of course the best thing, especially the poor disciples, who are very poor, and these are what they need. Mei Xueyan has lived a lot of hard lives, not to mention fish and white noodles, even if she has a hot meal, it is not bad, so she is still very grateful to Wu County.
But with so many things, there are only five people in Xiangzhuyuan, how can they eat it all?
"Send things to Xiangzhuyuan!"
Lu Shi ordered that Xiangzhuyuan has its own kitchen, of course, it can accommodate this.
"Wait."
Mei Xueyan stopped and said, "Let's eat a pig banquet in the house today, only a few catties of grain and white noodles need to be left, and the rest can be used as a banquet, thank you for taking care of Yan Niang over the years." β
"Since it's the girl's will, then let it be you."
The cooks moved all their things to the kitchen to work, and the servants and maids were naturally happy, they were more comfortable than the people outside, but they were not so big as fish and meat every day, and they could have an open meal to eat, which was in line with their wishes.
It's just a little blushing, they never take care of Mei Xueyan, they only know that there is a child daughter-in-law in the backyard, just like no such person, it's okay if they don't step on it.
"Mother Chen, you help me take the silk to Liu's embroidery workshop, they have good needlework there, they can make a few pieces of clothing, and give them to Mrs. and the young lady of Yixiangyuan."
"Yes......"
Mei Xueyan did this in order not to owe the Lin Mansion, so she divided the things in public, and so many people saw her intentions, and she had a clear conscience when she left in the future.
"Yo...... It was given by Miss Mei. β
Shen Shi walked over and touched a handful of silk and said, "The thing is not very good, it is very rough, I will forget it, I will honor my mother." β
As if she didn't understand, Madam only scolded: "Shen, why are you talking like that!" β
Shen smiled and patted his lips lightly, and said with a smile: "It's all my fault, it's the first time I've seen a living Maocai, or a female Maocai, I'm not happy to talk nonsense, when I encounter this kind of strange thing, it's like a dream, girl, don't be weird, you are noble now, don't worry about me, a deep woman, I don't want to be broken." β
Mei Xueyan ignored her, her etiquette has arrived, do you want love.
took stock of some of her leftovers, just a few catties of rice and white flour, some cotton cloth, and finally what she was short of, there were actually fifty taels, which were built in a small box, and Mei Xueyan was ecstatic.
Unlike the silver ticket that Lin Saburo gave her, this is real and belongs to her.
