Chapter XXXVIII
In April, the weather slowly warms up, and the more you walk from the northwest to the capital, the sunier it gets.
Because of Zhou Suqing's presence, Mei Ru didn't come out and walk around much along the way, and she didn't even bother to say a few words.
On weekdays, the two sisters sit in the carriage, Meng Yunlan has her own homework to be busy, and Mei Ru does not disturb her by the side, only reading quietly by herself. When she rested at the inn at night, she began to transcribe again. Take a look along the way, and Mei Ru has some of her own experience in these things recorded in the book, and after thinking about it carefully, she feels more and more benefited. In this way, she is more motivated.
It's just bitter Fu Zhao.
Before leaving Pingliang, Fu Zheng reminded him that he must act in a measured manner, especially when it was a few girls' homes. Fu Zhao remembered it for a few days, and in a blink of an eye, it was all thrown out of the clouds. He's just a mouth that can't be idle. As soon as he was free on the road, or bored, he went to talk to Meiru.
Mei Ru didn't want to quarrel with this child, so she naturally said that she was busy.
Fu Zhao teased: "Follow-up, what are you busy with?" Isn't it necessary to be a talented girl like Sister Zhou and Miss Meng? ”
The closer she got to the capital, the more reluctant Mei Ru was to have too much to do with this person. Especially Fu Zhao's mouthful of "follow by", it is really not like a word in the ears of others. Last time, Zhou Suqing heard it by chance. She was a little surprised on her face, but she didn't say anything, just looked at Mei Ru with a smile. That smile was as if Mei Ru and Fu Zhao had something in private!
At that time, Mei Ru had already complained a little about Fu Zhao's open-mouthedness, and now when she heard him call herself "follow up", Mei Ru immediately lowered her face and said, "Your Highness, don't call me that again!" ”
Seeing that she was suddenly angry, Fu Zhao was stunned and subconsciously muttered: "Why? ”
Mei Ru still had a cold face: "You are Your Highness, your status is noble, and you naturally don't care about these vain things like Qingyu and Fame, but I am different." ”
"I'm ......" Fu Zhao choked, paused, stopped talking, and only rode his horse forward.
Mei Ruer's roots finally calmed down, and she continued to read.
After a long time, someone outside suddenly called her: "Mei San, this prince has something to say." ”
It's Fu Zhao again!
The voice boss was unwilling, but he pretended to be serious, not knowing what he wanted to say or what to calculate.
Mei Ru quietly wrinkled her eyebrows.
Meng Yunlan, who had been practicing calligraphy quietly beside her, also raised her head at this time, and said to Mei Ru in a low voice: "Follow the rules, is this highness making stupid mistakes again?" As she spoke, the corners of her mouth widened and she was full of smiles. Meng Yunlan is thinner than Mei Ru, and she is shorter than Mei Ru, but her eyes are round and big, and when she laughs at this moment, it is all the promotion of a little girl.
Mei Ru also pursed her lips and smiled, and replied loudly: "Your Highness, please say something about it." ”
Fu Zhao still replied seriously: "You said something wrong before. ”
"What?" Mei Ru asked.
Fu Zhao said angrily: "Although this prince has a noble status, he also cares about those reputations. ”
"That's better." Mei Ru said, "Your Highness should stay away from us vulgar people. ”
Choked by her, Fu Zhao snorted angrily, and could only ride forward.
The clinker ears haven't been cleaned for long, and this man is back again!
Mei Ru couldn't cry or laugh: "Your Highness, what's the matter this time?" ”
Fu Zhao replied very naturally: "Naturally, I am looking for vulgar people to talk to pass the time. ”
In the car, Meng Yunlan and Mei Ru both laughed. Meng Yunlan couldn't stand up straight with a smile, she covered her mouth, so she didn't laugh out loud. Mei Ru also thought this person was cute, so she said, "Your Highness, wait a minute. ”
Fu Zhao rode a horse and walked leisurely outside.
After waiting for a while, I saw the curtain of the car next to me lifted, and Jingqin leaned out. She was holding an oiled paper bag in her hand. Fu Zhao ordered the little guy to take it, and when he saw it, it was a bag of green apricots! He was curious: "Mei San, what are you doing?" ”
In the car, Mei Ru replied: "This is a gift from a vulgar person to His Highness to pass the time to grind his teeth, Your Highness, don't be polite, I still have it here after eating." ”
This is to think that he is verbose, and send him away with green apricots!
Fu Zhao snorted, picked up one and threw it into his mouth.
Let's say that Zhou Suqing rode the carriage alone behind her, and when she heard that there seemed to be a movement in front of her, she put down the book and quietly opened the curtain. saw that Fu Zhao had slowly fallen, just about to get to her car. Zhou Suqing paused and asked, "Your Highness, what are you and Sister Ru talking about?" Did you mess with her again? It sounds like Sister Ru isn't very happy. Because of Fu Zheng's relationship, Zhou Suqing and Fu Zhao also got closer. Fu Zhao has called her sister since she was a child, and Zhou Suqing asked at this time very naturally and kindly, really like a sister.
Fu Zhao is a mouthless person, he was just about to say the original words before, and suddenly thought of what Mei Ru said a few days ago, just because he said a painting of Mei San in front of Sister Zhou, which caused her to be ridiculed by everyone and made her cry......
After thinking about it, Fu Zhao replied with a smile: "Sister Zhou, I was begging for green apricots to eat with Miss Meisan, and I didn't say anything." ”
"Miss Meisan?" Zhou Suqing looked at Fu Zhao with a smile, with a clear face. She asked, "Why don't you call for it?" ”
She still looks like a concerned big sister.
Fu Zhao still smiled: "Sister Zhou, I learned to play on a whim, if my father knows about it, he will definitely punish me!" Even if my father doesn't punish him, my brother will punish me if he knows about it! After that, he whispered to Zhou Suqing: "Good sister, I won't be so unruly in the future." Fortunately, now you are the only one who has listened carefully, and I am always thinking about it in my heart, and I just beg my sister not to say it. ”
Zhou Suqing's face turned slightly pale, and he replied with a smile: "Naturally not." ”
Lowering the curtain, Zhou Suqing's smile completely froze.
I didn't know if Fu Zhao was intentional or unintentional before, he said extremely powerfully, not only protecting the third girl of the Mei family everywhere, but also surrounding her, secretly warning her that as long as someone in the capital spread this, it was she Zhou Suqing who said it......
Zhou Suqing shook her head, only feeling that she was a little wronged this time.
In this way, Zhou Suqing is not very willing to be involved with Mei Ru. In case that reckless Fu Shiyi was deducted for another crime, she would not be able to bear it. Although she has a grandfather who hurts her, and she has a reputation as a son-in-law who is famous in the capital, Zhou Suqing has to be more cautious when it comes to sending people under the fence.
The roots of the plum are getting purer and purer.
The road was safe and sound, and after walking for half a month, when they arrived at the post house in Baoding Mansion, everyone saw Meng An, who came to pick them up and return to Beijing.
Meng An arrived two days in advance, and on this day, he sent people to wait on the official road early.
Now he helped Xiao Qiao's family down, and Meng Yunlan and Mei Ru also stepped on the pier to come down.
"Brother." Meng Yunlan called.
Meng An looked back and smiled. My sister is still like that, Wenwen is weak, and her body is a little thinner. Looking at Mei Ru next to her, she was slightly stunned. I haven't seen her for more than two months, and Cousin Ru seems to have grown taller again, more than half a head taller than Yunlan next to her.
Seeing him looking over, Mei Ru shouted generously: "Cousin An." ”
Meng An's white face was still red, and he replied, "Cousin Ru." ”
Zhou Suqing didn't step forward, but just greeted Meng An from afar.
Facing Zhou Suqing, Meng An was not so cramped towards Mei Ru, and he simply replied: "Miss Zhou." ”
On the other side, there were already people from the He Mansion who came to pick up Zhou Suqing. There is an annex of He Mansion in this Baoding City. They are going to pick up Zhou Suqing to live over there at this time. She said goodbye to Xiao Qiao, and smiled at Meng Yunlan and Mei Ru, and when it was Fu Zhao's turn, Fu Zhao smiled and said, "Sister Zhou, don't forget to promise me something." ”
Zhou Suqing chuckled in her heart, but her face was still smiling: "Your Highness said it was funny." ”
These two sentences reached Mei Ru's ears, she didn't care much about Zhou Suqing's affairs, but Fu Zhao came to her to ask for credit. He didn't open the door with his mouth, and he said all the conversations between him and Zhou Suqing as if pouring beans to Mei Ru. At the end, he raised his eyebrows and looked proud.
Mei Ru only felt funny, and said to him: "This Sister Zhou may want to become your imperial sister-in-law, why don't you look at her, but towards outsiders?" ”
Fu Zhao said in a low voice: "Speaking of which, I now think that this Sister Zhou is a little thoughtful, and it is a bit inappropriate to match my already cold and lonely brother." He originally wanted to have a sister-in-law who could talk to his brother considerately, but now that he sees Sister Zhou like this, he doesn't like it very much.
Hearing that Fu Zhao was so conscious, Mei Ru finally looked at him a little more pleasing to the eye, and hurriedly nodded and agreed: "His Royal Highness King Yan's temperament is indeed cold, and he still has to be worthy of being docile and soft-hearted. ”
Fu Zhao glanced at Mei Ru and said with a smile: "It's not you anyway." ”
Mei Ru had a smile on her face, but she suddenly froze at this moment, and then smiled faintly: "Naturally, it's not me." After a pause, she said again: "I look at this capital, there is no more suitable second sister who is docile and soft-hearted." ”
Fu Zhao hissed, and suddenly felt that it was really good to match it like this!
Mei Chen is now in Ren Hanlin, deeply respected by his father, and is expected to enter the cabinet in a few years, not to mention, the second girl fell into the water or was rescued by her brother, and there is also a head to talk about together, and it is said that the second girl of Meifu is as beautiful as a fairy, and her brother's appearance is also a good match...... Thinking about it like this, Fu Zhao felt more and more that this second girl from Meifu was reliable.
He was overjoyed, and he just hoped that after his brother came back, he would find an opportunity to speak.
On this day, they rested in Baoding Post House, and the next day they went to Zhuozhou. There are several scenes along the way, the twin towers are clear and smoky, and Hu Liang Xiaoyue ...... Fu Zhao had long been worried about it, and when he went, he didn't see it because of Fu Zheng's constraints, and now he naturally wants to stop by on the way back to take a look.
Meng An accompanied the Eleventh Highness to the twin towers, while Xiao Qiao's led the two girls to a nearby nunnery to rest, and by the way, they used some tea.
Some mothers-in-law had already cleaned the room, Mei Ru drank a cup of tea, and went to the nunnery with Meng Yunlan for a walk, this kind of thing Xiao Qiao's family was not very interested.
After resting for a while, they were about to leave by car, and saw that the master here welcomed a middle-aged beautiful woman at the door again. The man was followed by a few maids, and it looked like some big family was passing by to rest.
The incense is really good.
