After Mei Xiang and Mei Ru returned home, they went to Qiao's place.

The maids lifted the curtain, Mei Xiang just stepped in with one foot, glanced in, and the other foot stopped inexplicably. Mei Ru pushed him behind in confusion: "Brother, why don't you leave?" As she spoke, she tilted her head and looked in—

It turns out that the sister-in-law is waiting in front of her mother!

Mei Ru stuck out her tongue and stopped talking.

Hearing Mei Ru's voice, Dong raised his eyes slightly, but he didn't look at the two people who came in. Soon, she lowered her head again, and it was quiet.

Mei Xiang put his hand on his lips and coughed, and then walked in again.

Seeing this debt collector, Qiao's anger didn't come anywhere. Today, His Royal Highness King Yan came to the mansion, the three brothers in the second room are all there, Brother Yuan is full of economy, Brother Run'er is a clever director, and Brother Qi, who is less than a year old, is even more cute, but her son can't even find a figure! When the old lady asked, Mei Yin could only explain a reason, saying that Mei Xiang went to other places to do business......

Qiao's heart was on fire, but because Mei Ru and Dong were in front of him, he couldn't refute his son's face, so he just asked him: "Where have you been messing around these days?" ”

Mei Xiang said with a smile: "Something happened to my friend Zhuangzi, I went out of the city to help, and I only came back today." ”

Knowing that he was coaxing himself, Qiao Shi glanced at Mei Xiang fiercely. Looking at the daughter-in-law who was low-eyed and silent, Qiao's had to come back for her son, and then she blamed lightly: "You are busy outside, you don't come back for a few days, and you don't know how to remember the people at home!" ”

"The child remembers!" Mei Xiang admitted his mistake again, and Qiao Shi blasted him away: "Go back to your yard and rest." ”

After getting her mother's words, Mei Xiang got up and glanced at Dong by the way. I saw that my daughter-in-law lowered her eyes, and she didn't pay any attention to his husband's movements, just that he didn't save zài...... After a brief pause, Mei Xiang could only go out by himself.

Qiao Shi took a sip of tea, then turned to Dong Shi and said, "You are tired all day today, I have nothing to do here, you go back, you don't have to come back at night." ”

Dong responded "yes", blessed his body, and left according to his words.

Actually, Qiao's mind Dong understands that he just wants to match her and Mei Xiang, but the two of them are mismatched marriages in this life, where can they match? I'm afraid that as soon as this person comes back, he will go to those foxes and block her in vain, so it's better not to come back!

Thinking like this, Dong sighed, and just wanted to make a break earlier.

She walked slowly, and before she reached the courtyard, the maids came over early and happily reported: "Grandma, uncle is back!" ”

Dong hesitated slightly, and then nodded.

Walking inside, Mei Xiang had already changed out of his previous coat, and now he was wearing a homely cyan robe, standing there with an elegant posture, and at this time he picked up a pair of danqing, and looked at himself leaning on the couch.

Seeing him like this, Dong didn't know what to say, so he sat down in front of the makeup. Today, her mother-in-law didn't need her to go over to serve, so Dong called Hesui in and wanted to pull a more comfortable bun.

Hesui outside had just opened the curtain, and Mei Xiang didn't raise her head, but just ordered, "Go and pour the tea." ”

He Sui was stunned for a moment, then bowed down and withdrew.

The room was quiet, Mei Xiang turned his head, and said to Dong Shi without words: "I picked out a few good calligraphy and paintings today, especially this blue rain and red banana is the best, where do you think it is good?" ”

Dong didn't look at it, and replied casually: "Uncle's study is still empty." ”

"Hey, it's not right." Mei Xiang walked over, "This painting is full of little daughters, and hanging in the study is a joke." ”

He's still afraid of jokes?

Dong chuckled, took off the bead hairpin casually, and was about to raise his hand to take the second one, but Mei Xiang had already taken it off for her first. The fingertips accidentally touched his hand, a little cold, Dong was slightly stunned, and then embarrassed to take it back.

She didn't move, and neither did the man behind her, and the room suddenly fell silent.

Mei Xiang only felt that something was different, and after a while, his hand gently pressed on Dong's shoulder. He looked at her in the mirror, and a pair of peach blossom eyes seemed to contain rippling spring water.

Dong lowered his eyes uncomfortably.

"Yao'er ......"

Mei Xiang called her softly.

Suddenly, someone outside came to say: "Uncle, my aunt is not feeling well, and I don't know if she has fetal gas." "——It is the maid next to Aunt Zhao.

When Mei Xiang heard this, he answered "here", and when his eyes went down, he saw Dong lowering his eyes and smiling coldly. She got up, and the hands that had been on her shoulders slid down.

"Uncle, what do you want to say today?" Dong raised his eyes, no longer with his previous look.

Mei Xiang was stunned for a moment, and said, "I bought calligraphy and paintings today, and I have no silver on me." ”

Didn't have any money to show favor to her?

Coax her like before?

Dong's heart was sour, but he still smiled: "Uncle, you haven't entered the project, where do I have it?" He also said: "Uncle's monthly share of silver, even mine is taken to the outside expenses." That's all I've got here now, so take it all if you want. As she spoke, she took out a brocade box from the bottom of the box and gave it to him.

"Uncle, if you take these, give me the letter of resignation."

Dong looked at him and said calmly: "From now on, we have nothing to do with each other and owe each other. ”

Mei Xiang was stunned again.

"Uncle," the maid who was talking outside urged him, "Auntie is not feeling well." ”

Mei Xiang came out of nowhere with a burst of fire, and said with a stalk around his neck: "What are you urging?" If you don't feel well, go to the doctor! ”

This roar was silenced outside.

Clenching his hands, he quickly lifted the curtain and walked away.

There are still a few beaded hairpins on the dresser, quietly, and brilliantly.

……

Mother Liu briefly talked about the situation in the yard over there, and when Qiao Shi heard it, she couldn't help but sigh again.

Mei Ru was picking snacks to eat next to her, and she was curious at this time: "Mother, what's wrong?" ”

"Not your uneasy brother yet? I didn't come back for a few days, and when I came back, I got to those foxes again! Wandering around all day long, being ...... by those The hookup is broken, and I can't wait to break his legs now! Qiao Shi said angrily.

Thinking of my brother's current situation, how can I do this?

Mei Ru frowned, and suddenly had an idea, she said, "Mother, why don't you send my brother to my uncle?" ”

The uncle-in-law in Mei Ru's mouth is Xiao Qiao's husband and Meng Yunlan's father, Meng Zheng, who is now the chief soldier of Shaanxi and Gansu.

"Where are you going?" Qiao Shi frowned, shook his head and said, "You can also see your brother's body bones, Wenwen is weak, how can he endure the suffering in the barracks?" "Obviously reluctant.

"Mother!" Mei Ru thought about this, and felt more and more feasible, she persuaded: "Instead of letting my brother be idle in the capital, it is better to send it to my uncle's place to be controlled, maybe after this experience, my brother can get better." Of course, Mei Ru didn't say that Fu Zheng was the soldier who went to the Northwest Province to lead, and when the time comes, my brother will be able to do something and not achieve nothing.

"This ......" Qiao Shi was still frowning, Mei Ru still had to say something, but Qiao Shi diverted and said: "Follow the rules, how about going to Meng Mansion today?" ”

Thinking of her aunt's incident, Mei Ru's head was big. She hurriedly learned this, and said, "Good mother, I don't want to go." "My mother loves her the most, and she knows her aunt's temperament best, so where is she willing to send her to her aunt to suffer? This abacus played well, and Mei Ru couldn't help but snicker. Afraid that Qiao's would not agree, she hurriedly took Qiao's arm and said, "Good mother, I really don't want to go." ”

Clinker Qiao Shi groaned slightly, and this time he actually said: "Your aunt's idea is good, follow it, you can go tomorrow." ”

Mei Ru was caught off guard and was completely stunned: "Mother? Thinking of her aunt's powerful mouth, her little face turned even whiter.

Touching her daughter's head, Qiao sighed: "Follow the rules, my mother really spoils you too much on weekdays, and it's good to go to your aunt and learn something." ”

Mei Ru was completely confused, why did her mother, who usually loved her the most, suddenly give her to go to her aunt to suffer?

Actually, to put it mildly, it's just because Qiao's saw Fu Zheng again today.

If it comes to it, His Royal Highness King Yan is really Xiao Xiao and solemn, hearty and clear. The second room thinks that he is not worthy of Sister Qian, Qiao's thinks that this Fu Qilang is good, his character and appearance are top-notch everywhere, and the back house is clean, but his background is poor, and he is not favored. Since you are not blessed with holy grace, you will not be concerned about those things......

The more Qiao Shi thought about it, the more she felt that this Fu Qilang was good, but she knew that the other party would never be able to take a fancy to Follow!

Of the four girls in the house, Sister Yun has a quiet and steady temperament, and she has skimmed some books, which is just a good match for the concubine of Xipingbo's mansion. Sister Qian is the appearance of the country and the city, she is all-encompassing, and the ancestors are checked, so she will naturally be able to marry a good family in the future, as for Sister Ping'er is still young, she will not mention it for the time being, but there is only one left, which is a big difficulty.

Although Qiao's spoils his daughter, he still doesn't know how many pounds and taels his daughter has?

Follow her with a mediocre appearance, mediocre knowledge, but a good temperament, and even more picky.

Thinking about it like this, where can Qiao's rest assured?

happened to hear Xiao Qiao's words, Qiao's felt that it was also appropriate to let her daughter earn some good reputation, otherwise she would be arrogant, where could she marry a good family?

Mei Ru didn't know that Qiao's mind had made so many turns because she saw Fu Zheng, if she knew, she would definitely be angry!

Let's say that the next day, Mei Ru went to greet her ancestor and said that she was going to go to school in Mengfu.

The old ancestor didn't have anything, but just reminded: "It's okay to learn the rules from your aunt, don't be crazy!" ”

Mei Ru drooped her head and answered listlessly "yes".

took the car to the Meng Mansion, and as soon as she leaned down, Mei Ru heard someone behind her call her: "Sister Ru." In a vain tone, Mei Ru frowned, turned her head and looked over-

Sure enough, it's that Zhou Suqing again!

Mei Ru sighed and frowned slightly, "Sister Zhou, why are you here too?" ”

Zhou Suqing smiled slightly, the most dignified and virtuous appearance, she explained: "Yesterday, Mr. Qiao asked me to guide Sister Ru to learn calligraphy, and I came. ”

Mei Ru's face sank: "You are pointing me out?" ”

If you want Zhou Suqing to guide her, Mei Ru might as well take the initiative to cast the lake again!
