After returning to the Dingguo Mansion, Mei Ru naturally had to go to the old lady first.

In Chunxi Hall, the brothers and sisters of Xiao Wu and the Meng family, as well as the second sister and the fourth sister, are all there. When they saw Mei Ru coming in at this time, they all looked at her with a smile, and they were all kind. Mei Ru stepped forward to greet the old lady. Without waiting for the end of the invitation, Mrs. Du beckoned, "Come and sit down." ”

The second sister was already sitting next to the old lady, and Mei Ru was sitting on the other side of the old lady.

Below, Meng Yunlan winked mischievously at Meiru. The two of them are okay, Mei Ru smiled, her eyes turned slightly, and she happened to see Meng An in front of her again. Meng An was ordered to explore Hualang this spring, and now he is working as an editor in the Hanlin Academy, and today is the middle of the month, so he came over together. He sat there, dressed in a moon-white tuanhua dark pattern robe, and his whole person was as warm as jade, rich and handsome.

Sensing Mei Ru's gaze, Meng An's white face slowly turned a little red.

Knowing that this cousin was the most stupid, Mei Ru hurriedly opened her eyes.

Mrs. Du stroked Mei Ru's forehead hair, and saw that her face was like a flower and jade, and she sighed with emotion: "Follow this girl who is suffering outside." He boasted again: "This time, Xunxun has earned a lot of dignity in our house, which is better than those brothers and brothers." ”

The reward that Mei Ru received when she entered the palace before, and the little maid had already returned home from outside the palace to report the news. Mei Ru herself got the name of walking in Honglu Temple, and Emperor Yanchang also rewarded her with a lot of gold and silver silk, and Meifu must have been rewarded.

These are all decent.

The old lady said to Mei Ping below: "Sister Ping, you have to learn from each other." ”

As soon as she heard this, Sister Ping's mouth quietly pursed.

She was the youngest, and this naturally became the position of Mei Ru before. In the past, the old lady loved to let Mei Ru learn from her second sister. Mei Ru knows this kind of taste, she knows this kind of unhappiness in her heart too well, and she doesn't want to hurt her sister's harmony, so she said: "Ancestor, I hit it by mistake, but I don't dare to take credit." As he spoke, he avoided the old lady and secretly grimaced at Sister Ping'er.

The old lady put her arm around her and said, "Seeing that the ninth day of the new year is the birthday, this time you can't do it casually." "Last year, Mei Ru got together on her birthday with her sisters and Meng Yunlan, and this year Mei Ru came back with twists and turns, of course, she had to do it well.

The old lady said to Qiao's: "After the post, when the time comes, I will invite a few more female ancestors to be lively, and we will all make money." ”

When they heard this, they all clapped their hands and said yes. The news of the attack on the mission before came back to the mansion, which really frightened people's souls, and Rao was a strict old lady who wiped a lot of tears, and the Guogong Mansion was gloomy all day, and this time I took the opportunity to be happy.

After talking for a while, the old lady finally spoke, "Okay, sisters, let's talk." As he spoke, he looked at Meng An again: "Brother An, Brother Yuan came back from the academy today, and how many brothers happened to get together?" ”

Meng An was a little old, and it was inconvenient to follow Mei Ru over, but now he got up and said "okay".

Coming out of Chunxi Hall, the sisters went to Meiru's courtyard together.

On the way, Mei Ping was still a little unhappy with the previous incident, and her little face was bulging. The temper of this fourth sister is similar to that of Mei Ru, and she is unhappy or something. Mei Ru was not angry, but said, "Fourth sister, I brought some dried fruits back." Sister Ping looked over, Mei Ru blinked in understanding, and Sister Ping was a little happier.

Meng Anxing was beside him, and seeing that the fork in the road was ahead, his ears turned red, and then he asked Mei Ru hard: "Cousin Ru, do you have what you want for your birthday?" ”

Mei Ru paused, and hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Cousin An, don't bother, I don't lack anything." Since she vaguely noticed that the second sister was interested in Cousin An, she didn't want to get involved.

"Follow-up, are you still polite to my brother?" Meng Yunlan took her arm and said. I haven't seen her for a few months, and Meng Yunlan has also risen a little taller, but she is still weak, with a white face and big eyes.

Mei Ru still spread her hands: "I really can't think of what I want." ”

Hearing her refuse to confess like this, Meng An was slightly embarrassed, and her ears turned redder.

Mei Qian, who was standing next to her, smiled and said: "I remember that the third sister originally took a fancy to a small double-sided embroidered screen in Qibao Zhai, but she didn't buy it later, and she complained for a while when she came back." ”

The last time I went back to Lianxiang Temple, I wanted Mei Qian and Meng An to look at each other, and now Mei Qian gently opened her mouth for him to relieve the siege, Meng An'an felt a little inexplicable, and he was not too embarrassed to look at Mei Qian.

As soon as Mei Qian mentioned this, Meng Yunlan also remembered, and she said with annoyance: "Yes, that screen was also bought by His Highness Eleven!" ”

Meng An didn't speak, only nodded and wrote it down. I heard Meng Yunlan say to Mei Qian: "Sister Qian is still careful." Suddenly, he thought of something, was silent, and said to Mei Qian: "Cousin Fangchen is also about to arrive, what does Cousin Qian want?" "Mei Qian and Mei Ru are close to each other in June and July, and everyone remembers it.

"Cousin Ann is polite." Mei Qian smiled gently, and said, "The little rabbit that my cousin gave me last time was very good, so I don't have to worry about it this time." ”

Hearing her mention the rabbit, Meng An was even more embarrassed. That's also to send one first, and then bring her one. He paused and said, "That's just a funny thing, if my cousin needs anything, just ask." ”

"Then thank you cousin first." Mei Qian smiled, her voice was soft and soft, still like water.

Her gaze wandered between the two of them, and Mei Ru still felt that it was better not to mix with each other.

……

Since coming back from Xiqiang, Mei Ru has been a little busy in the past two days, so she first went to Mr. Pingyang's house to meet the teacher, sent some thoughts, and then went to Sister Dong's place to sit down and report her safety. Knowing that Hu Sanbiao also returned to Beijing this time, Mei Ru was a little uncomfortable going again.

Xu saw that she was uncomfortable, and Dong said: "Follow the rules, I treat you as my own sister, you must not have anything to do with me." "Except for Hesui, she stays in the side courtyard all day, and there is no one to talk to. Dong knew that Mei Ru really cared about her, so she really liked this sister. If Mei Ru is also separated from her, Dong will not know who to talk to.

Mei Ru smiled: "Since my sister doesn't dislike me, I won't be polite to you." ”

Hearing such a poor mouth, Dong's heart was also happy, and she took out the congratulatory gift to Mei Rufangchen. - Mei Ru is the most afraid of the heat, as soon as summer comes, she is tired and too lazy to move, and now that June has just entered the summer, she is already a little embarrassed. Last year, Dong embroidered a sachet to cool off the heat, and Mei Ru liked it very much, so she embroidered a new one this year, which still contained borneol and mint for her to cool off.

Mei Ru still likes it, so she hurriedly hung it on her waist.

On the ninth day of the new year, the Dingguo Mansion was really lively. In addition to a few sisters in the house, even the eldest sister who married into Xipingbo Mansion also came back, and invited other girls from the house to come over.

Mei Ru was the last reluctant to want these lively, but she couldn't bear the likes of her ancestors.

The old lady's thoughts, Mei Ru also knows, is that she wants other provinces in the capital to know the happy events in the Dingguo Mansion and spread her reputation, which is beneficial and harmless.

Mei Ru also cooperated. It's just that when she posted it, she still kept her own careful thoughts, and she deliberately didn't invite Zhou Suqing. When Clinker Qiao's checked the list, she really couldn't laugh or cry, she poked Mei Ru's head, and said angrily: "Follow your temper like this." If anyone inadvertently offends you, they will never be able to enter your eyes for the rest of their lives. ”

Mei Ru smiled and said calmly: "Yes." ”

But Qiao's still forced her to post Zhou Suqing.

Mei Ru was dissatisfied: "Mother, what do you ask her to do?" ”

Just because she is the granddaughter of Mrs. He, the number one talented woman in the world who is famous in the capital, and she wants to marry Fu Zheng?

But now the entire capital knows that Fu Zheng is unlucky.

When Fu Zheng returned to his life in the palace that day, it was reported that Long Yan was furious, and even scolded the words "ruthless", and now he was dismissed from his official duties, only thinking about it behind closed doors in the house, and was also fined two years of silver. Speaking of which, Fu Zheng has won so much military exploits, but because of the matter of the envoy and the rumors that he and Ah Yan have a private relationship, he came back without any reward, and he angered Long Yan and was severely punished, which is also strange and pitiful.

Mei Ru sighed, thinking that if she married Zhou Suqing, Fu Zheng's life should be a little better...... I don't know what to think, Mei Ru was slightly stunned.

Qiao Shi still poked her head and said, "What do you know? ”

"Where do I not understand it?" Mei Ru blinked in confusion.

Qiao's didn't say much to Mei Ru's little girl, but on the ninth day of the new year, Mei Ru still heard some rumors.

At that time, the eldest sister and the two girls from Xie Mansion arrived first, Mei Ru didn't like the third sister of Xie Mansion, so she simply nodded and left people to the second sister to greet her. - In this kind of thing, Mei Qian is always more comfortable than Mei Ru, and she does a good job, and she will not make mistakes. Mei Ru simply relaxed, and she talked to her eldest sister next to her.

Mei Yun married Xipingbo Mansion for exactly one year, and she was still quiet between her eyebrows and eyes, not talking much, and she didn't fight or grab.

The two sisters hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they were talking, when suddenly, the word Yan Wang floated over next to them. Mei Ru was stunned, and quietly propped up her ears uncomfortably.

After listening for a while, she realized that a few people next to her were talking about the marriage of Zhou Suqing and Fu Zheng.

Originally, everyone in the capital knew that Fu Zheng was coming back to marry Zhou Suqing, but now Fu Zheng was heavily punished by Emperor Yanchang, and he didn't know when he would be able to get the emperor's blue eyes again, so this marriage under his nose became a little delicate.

Whether it is self-preservation or falling into the ground, no one wants to tie the fate of their mansion to a prince who is clearly disgusted by the emperor.

Including Hefu.

"So, I don't know if there is a shadow of Sister Zhou and King Yan's marriage."

When these words floated softly, Mei Ru flustered.

She originally thought that Fu Zheng would be better off if he married Zhou Suqing, but now it seems that his life is not easy at all, even his teacher hesitated to help him, and he doesn't know if it will be worse in the future.
