Mei Ru thought that her mother would lie down for a few more days, but on the second day after her brother left Beijing, Qiao's got out of bed.

When Mei Ru came to greet her in the morning, Qiao's was being served by the maids to make up.

"Mother, why did you get up today?" Mei Ru asked curiously.

Qiao Shi said angrily: "You can't lie down all the time, since Brother Xiang'er has left, my mother should also go to the old lady to say goodbye." ”

Some time ago, Qiao's health was not good, she was cowardly all day long, she couldn't breathe, she cried and wiped her tears at every turn, Mrs. Du looked upset, so she allowed her to rest, and she didn't have to go to Chunxi Hall every day to ask for peace.

Of course, in addition, the old lady also let Xiao Wu temporarily manage the mansion for a few days.

Qiao's is the strongest character, where can he stand this? She thought about it, became more and more frightened, and inevitably sulked at the old lady in her heart.

But that day, Mei Ru mentioned the old lady's birthday, and Qiao's realized that she had been negligent and inappropriate these days, and when Mei Xiang left Beijing, she naturally had to cheer up.

On this day, Qiao's led Mei Yun and Mei Ru to Chunxi Hall, and before the three of them arrived, they heard laughter floating from inside, and they couldn't be more harmonious.

Qiao's hand tightened, and he walked in calmly.

Seeing Qiao's coming, the old lady also reacted like that: "Why don't you rest for a few more days?" ”

Qiao Shi smiled: "Mother, you don't know, I'm just an idle character, now it's almost good, where are you still lying down?" He also said, "My daughter-in-law heard everyone laughing outside before, and I knew that I was right to come today, otherwise I would be so bored in the room alone?" ”

The old lady was amused by Qiao's words again, and she said, "Now I'm talking about the birthday of this old woman, and you are coincidental, so listen to it." After that, he turned his head and said to Xiao Wu: "Your method is good, it's up to you next month, if you don't understand anything, ask your sister-in-law more." ”

Xiao Wu hurriedly got up and excused himself: "Old lady, since my sister-in-law's body is already cool, it should still be handled by my sister-in-law." ”

When Qiao Shi heard this, he hurriedly pushed back with a smile: "Brother and sister, you're welcome, it's up to you to come this year, I just happened to have a leisure, and I'll bring a mouth to eat the old lady's birthday banquet when the time comes!" ”

As soon as he said this, everyone laughed again.

Du Shi said: "It's not enough to just bring your mouth, you have to prepare a gift." He pointed to Qiao's and said, "Brother Yin's daughter-in-law, you can get the first share!" Don't pull it down! ”

"No one will pull the ancestors." Qiao Shi spread his hands and replied.

Everyone was even more happy this time.

The old lady hugged Mei Qian, thought of something, and said: "When it comes to gifts, Ah You is the most intimate, and she has been thinking about me, and she also sent a lantern two days ago." ”

"Ancestor, that lantern was picked by the third sister first." Mei Qian explained for Mei Ru, and after that, she smiled at Mei Ru opposite.

That smile is the most gentle, and the most kind.

Mei Ru felt a little ghost in her heart, and she also smiled faintly.

A few adults discussed other matters, and the sisters came out of Chunxi Hall first, and Mei Qian fell a little behind, waiting for Mei Ru to come along.

Mei Ru guessed that she had something to say, so she took the initiative to ask, "Second sister, but is there something?" ”

Mei Qian looked at her softly, and said softly: "Third sister, that lantern ...... I later heard from the second brother that it was painted by His Royal Highness King Yan. She paused, then asked, "Do you know this?" ”

Mei Ru naturally pretended to be surprised, she shook her head and said, "How do I know? ”

Saying that, pouting, Mei Ru said disdainfully: "His Royal Highness King Yan, who is only eight buckets tall, actually loves to paint this kind of thing?" It's going to laugh to death when you say it! I'm afraid this person is also a fame seeker. ”

"Third sister, don't say that." Mei Qian hurriedly stopped her, and said, "Don't look at just a few Lantern Festival dumplings, the simpler this kind of thing, the more you can see the painter's skills, and the pen in the hand of His Royal Highness King Yan is only afraid that it is superb." ”

When Mei Ru heard this, she pursed the corners of her lips with her eyes down, and then raised her head again and looked at Mei Qian with a smile. She smiled and said, "Second sister, you have said a lot of good things for His Highness today." ”

The little girl had something to say, and Mei Qian's face turned red all of a sudden, and she lowered her head suddenly.

Mei Ru looked at the side lightly, a little stunned for a while.

Back in her room, Mei Ru saw that there was still paper and pen on the desk by the window, but she had been busy with a mess recently, and she hadn't practiced writing for some time. This time it was boring, and Mei Ru asked Yichan to take a pill of ink ingots and grind it beside her. She picked up the pen, stood beside the desk, and held her sleeve with the other hand, thinking about what to write, and when she was about to put down the pen, somehow, she thought of those Lantern Festival dumplings.

Mei Ru put pen to paper. In a few clicks, the paper is a round and soft ball, and a few more pleats will become a bun.

When Yichan saw it, she couldn't help laughing and said, "Girl, what you painted is really like, just like there are real buns on this paper." ”

Mei Ru lowered her eyes and looked at it in a daze, and drew a round and soft ball next to her, and then took the tip of the pen and lightly tapped a few points on it.

She asked Yichan, "What does this look like?" ”

Yichan looked at it and suddenly realized: "It's like a Lantern Festival stained with sesame seeds." ”

Mei Ru smiled this time.

Yichan said, "Girl, your painting is really good. ”

Mei Ru stopped laughing coldly and lowered her eyes, in fact, these were taught to her by Fu Zheng. The reason why she can recognize Fu Zheng's lanterns is because of these.

In his previous life, there was a New Year's Festival, Fu Zheng led the troops to resist the enemy in Gansu and did not return to Beijing, and Mei Ru had nothing to do in the capital, so she simply went all the way to the camp to find him.

Seeing Mei Ru coming, this person was still as cold as ever, and said impatiently: "You will return to Beijing soon." ”

He bombarded her, but Meiru wouldn't leave.

She stayed in Fu Zheng's tent. This man was absent during the day, only came back at night, and the two rarely slept together, barely in peace. On the night of Yuan Xi, Mei Ru poked his back with her hand: "Lord, I haven't eaten the Lantern Festival today." "This place is in chaos, there are wars everywhere, where does anyone remember these things?

Fu Zheng ignored her, and Mei Ru continued to poke his back with her hand.

His back was solid and hard, and Mei Ru couldn't move it, and he never got tired of it.

Fu Zheng was annoyed by her and couldn't help it, so he sat up and drew a few Lantern Festivals and threw them to her.

"Wangmei quenches her thirst, take it!"

Mei Ru looked at it quietly for a long time, and secretly hid under the pillow.

On the New Year's Eve of the second year, the two came back from the palace, Fu Zheng had drunk wine, and was resting in the carriage with his eyes closed, Mei Ru said again: "Lord, I haven't eaten the Lantern Festival this year." ”

Fu Zheng didn't open his eyes and didn't speak.

Mei Ru said: "Lord Wang, will you draw another one for me?" ”

Fu Zheng opened his eyes tiredly and asked, "What?" ”

After Mei Ru returned home, she took out last year's paintings from the box and held them up to him, as if offering treasures.

Fu Zheng saw it and was stunned.

He walked to the side of the desk, picked up the pen, turned back to her and said, "I'll teach you." As soon as Mei Ru was overjoyed, she saw the man turn around and said coldly: "Don't bother me anymore after learning." As soon as her smile came to her lips, she froze for a moment......

Mei Ru sighed, lazily put down her pen, and threw the piece of paper on the case to Jingqin.

She went to Qiao's room.

When Meiru arrived, Liu's mother didn't know what her mother was advising, and when she saw her coming, she didn't say anything. Mei Ru probably guessed something. She is a fierce and competitive mother, and because of the birthday at the old lady's place before, even if Qiao's heart is unhappy, she must still pretend to be virtuous, and she must be sulking again.

was really guessed by Mei Ru, and Qiao Shi has been thinking about these things in the house since he came back.

They have two rooms in one place, and the old lady obviously likes the second room more.

Over the years, Second Master Chen's official luck has been getting better and better, but Mei Yin is still that unmotivated. Besides, the children below, Mei Xiang is already uncompetitive enough, and she is also playful and unruly, and she doesn't like the old lady, but what about the few in the second room, each fights, and the brothers don't talk about it, Sister Qian is like a flower and jade to attract people's pain, and she can't find the slightest mistake in doing things and talking, and the poem on the Shangyuan Festival a few days ago also got the blue eyes of His Royal Highness King Yan, and it was different for a while.

Looking at the daughter in front of him, Qiao couldn't help but sigh again.

Mei Ru hurriedly turned over and rubbed her mother's shoulder, and persuaded while rubbing: "It's still the body that is the most important, and my mother doesn't have to work hard." ”

Qiao Shi glanced at her and said, "What do you know about this little girl?" ”

"Where do I not understand?" Mei Ru said, "My mother is just idle and wants to find something to do." ”

Qiao Shi turned around: "The first one will be busy with your business!" As soon as she thought that Sister Qian had the title of a talented woman in poetry, she couldn't help but feel anxious, and only urged: "Follow the rules, when are you going to your aunt?" ”

Mei Ru also thought of this, and she naturally replied: "I'll go when my mother is better." ”

"No, no, you will go tomorrow!" Qiao's bombarded her.

Mei Ru was stunned: "What are you doing in such a hurry?" ”

Is there such a thing as earning fame, can you not be in a hurry?

Seeing that his daughter was not motivated, Qiao couldn't wait to roll up her sleeves and read more books for Xunxun!

The next day, Mei Ru arrived at the Meng Mansion and asked Mrs. Meng for peace and Xiao Qiao's for peace.

When Xiao Qiaoshi saw her coming, he breathed a rare sigh of relief, and said: "The records that Brother An rebuilt for me are really unsightly, I can't even tell the difference between a hairpin and a hairpin, it's really an elm pimple head!" It's better to follow you, the girl's family will always be more careful......"

When Xiao Qiao's said this, Meng Anzheng stood beside him awkwardly, his white face flushed.

Mei Ru's eyelids jumped, and she secretly warned herself that she must not make a mistake, otherwise...... It didn't end well.
