Chapter 2 Going to Beijing

"Sister-in-law, Ingki is back! As soon as I heard the shopkeeper talk about it, I rushed over! I heard that Yingqi passed the exam! The pomp and circumstance outside can be huge! Our Meng family can finally raise our eyebrows! After a long list of words were finished in one breath, Hu Shi didn't even take a breath. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info and behind her, followed by the second child of the Meng family with a happy face. Old Madam Meng's brows furrowed slightly, and then she said lightly: "I was about to ask Fu Bo to invite you." Now that you're here, let's sit down together! I've got a table of meals ready in the kitchen. We're all together as a family. Seeing Mrs. Meng's aura, Hu Shi secretly rolled his eyes, but his face was full of smiles: "Sister-in-law is so thoughtful!" What's so embarrassing about that? We should have picked him up and washed the dust! Mrs. Meng smiled: "What's the difference between you and me?" The family doesn't have to be so polite! And Meng Changde has already talked to Meng Yingqi about the sky at this moment.

The usually deserted courtyard is full of laughter at the moment. An Niang was affectionately held in Hu's arms, and she was a little uncomfortable. The little man wanted to break free from the ground, but he was afraid of Mrs. Meng's usual teachings. Don't dare to show rudeness. The tangled appearance of the villain made Meng Yingqi a little unbearable, and said with a smile: "Anniang, come to Daddy's side." Daddy, here's your favorite jellyfish salad. Hu Shi also noticed something strange at this moment, and the embarrassment on his face flashed. By raising his hand, he let go of An Niang. But immediately another villain occupied An Niang's position. "Grandma, don't you like Brother Yu? Didn't you say that Brother Yu is your favorite? The one who asked was Meng Changde's eldest grandson. Hu Shi glanced at An Niang, who was sitting on his father's lap opposite, and said with a smile: "Silly boy, what is the worst, you and An Niang are both good children, and grandmothers like them!" Brother Yu quarreled unrelentingly: "Grandmother is cheating, you clearly said it!" "For a while, the Hu family couldn't get up or down. Old Lady Meng's face became gloomy, and when she looked at Meng Changde, his face became ugly: "Brother Yu, what do you look like like this?" Don't get out of the way yet! Hearing his grandfather's scolding, Brother Yu, who has always been spoiled, was willing to listen. just hugged Hu's neck and didn't cling to it. "Everyone, take the child out! There are no rules for the whole day! Hu's face was cold to his daughter-in-law. Her eldest daughter-in-law, Lin, was already standing by her side at this time. Hearing her reprimand, he didn't dare to squeak, but just coaxed his son in a whisper, so that he could talk about it before he hugged Brother Yu out. Looking at the back of his daughter-in-law, Hu shook his head and said to Mrs. Meng: "Let my sister-in-law smile." The eldest daughter-in-law spoils her children, and she doesn't listen to me no matter how many times I say it. When Mrs. Meng heard this, she looked at Meng Changde: "Second uncle, Brother Yu is not too young, it's time for enlightenment." Go back and say hello to the clan school, and let Brother Yu go to school! Meng Changde's face flashed with a hint of shame, and said: "Actually, I have long wanted to enlighten him, but I just ......" Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the Hu family: "Sister-in-law, Brother Yu'er's health has not been very good, we are not reluctant, but we are worried that the child is weak and unbearable." Mrs. Meng was silent when she heard this. just glanced at the second uncle deeply and said, "Boy, it's a little more solid." Yingqi was weak when he was young, so I asked Fubo to teach him a set of long boxing, practiced horse steps every day, and quickly raised his body! Our Meng family is now a boy in the younger generation, but we can't be sloppy! Meng Changde nodded again and again, and said, "What my sister-in-law taught me is that we must teach Brother Yu well when we go back." ”

Finish a meal without being salty or light. When Hu returned home, he began to complain: "Her son has passed the exam." Always put on a high-minded look. I also have to meddle in teaching Brother Yu a lesson. What is not as good as An Niang? It's not common for children to have a temperament! Meng Changde's face darkened when he heard this: "Can you say a few words?" Sister-in-law is not for our good? "Good for us? For our good, why don't you mention this year's medicinal herb business, and their mother doesn't open your mouth? It's hard to do business now, and you don't know it! Where are you looking for someone to deal with? Finally, Yingqi became an official, but they didn't say that they helped a little, but avoided it. I think they are developed, and there is no more of us in their eyes! Meng Changde was a little speechless, and then shouted: "Ignorant woman! That's how you know! Yingqi is an official, but he is not a businessman, what business experience do you have to do with us? When Hu Shi heard it, he snorted and sneered: "I know that your Meng family is innocent and has been a scholar for generations. It's just that since your family is so high, why did you ask me, a merchant girl? Isn't the food and clothing in this house all dependent on me? Why can't you eat and drink those poetry books? Meng Changde's heart was on fire when she ridiculed her, and he raised his hand to give it to her. was hit headlong by Hu Shi in his arms: "You also have the ability to be majestic here with me, come, come and fight, you kill me!" There was a lot of commotion in the room.

but did not mention these disputes in the second room. Meng Yingqi and his mother finished eating, but first put a pillar of incense in front of his father's spiritual seat and prayed silently. Thinking of her deceased husband, Mrs. Meng also had tears in her eyes. They were a young couple, and they also had a little affection back then. It's just that the time of love is too short, Meng Yingqi was three years old, and Master Meng died of illness. The second uncle was not very old back then. A family is supported by the old lady. Now that Meng Yingqi has been admitted, she has finally lived up to so many years of hard work.

"Mother, when I go home this time, the main thing is to take you and An Niang out. With my current Fenglu, I have more than enough to support you and An Niang. You have suffered all your life, and the child wants to do his filial piety under your knees! Meng Yingqi looked at the old mother deeply, although the mother was only in her early fifties, but she was full of white hair, and she looked far older than women of the same age. Mrs. Meng was stunned for a moment, and then said, "It's better not to use it!" You're so busy out there and you have to take care of us, you're working so hard! Meng Yingqi said: "Mother, you are not by my side, the child is suspenseful day and night." and An Niang, our father and daughter have not seen each other for so many years, and they are already unfamiliar. If you can be by my side, I can do things with peace of mind. Mrs. Meng wanted to say something more, but she heard her mother persuade: "Old lady, the young master is alone, and he is surrounded by small servants, long followers, all of them are big men, and there is no proper person to cook food and daily life." You better go, first, you can complete the filial piety of the young master, and second, you can let their father and daughter enjoy their family. The little lady doesn't have her biological mother by her side, and she has always been bitter enough. Third, you can also help the young master take care of the housework, and the young master also has to be taken care of. If you have all three, you can say yes! Her words were to the point, and Mrs. Meng nodded unconsciously. Meng Yingqi smiled: "Mother, it's great that you agreed!" ”

So the whole family began to pack their bags to go to Beijing.
