"Sister Shen is here, why didn't you tell me in advance." Meng Xintong was very surprised, originally this time the warm pavilion embroidery should have been done by the Shen family, but it turned out to be done by Ding'an Bofu, she originally thought that the girl of the Shen family should not come this time.

Shen Jiali smiled softly and said: "This time I was lazy, if I didn't come to help one or two, it would be too much to say." ”

"Where do you think, Sister Shen thinks she will be able to escape next time?" Meng Xintong and Shen Jiali stood side by side, laughing and walking towards the warm pavilion.

Acacia followed behind and looked at Shen Jiali's back, Meng Xintong's words were just polite, judging from Shen Jiali's age, she might be out of the cabinet next year.

"Why did Sister Shen come? Didn't the Shen family still make trouble a while ago. ”

"Shhhh

Acacia heard someone whispering behind him, it seemed that something really happened to the Shen family before, so he gave up this small gathering in the warm pavilion to Meng Xintong.

Recalling carefully, Acacia did not have any impression of this Shen girl.

"This sister of the Shen family, do you know you?" Acacia asked Meng Chen in a whisper.

Meng Chenxi thought about it and leaned into Acacia's ear and said, "I've seen it a few times, and I heard that the Shen family's sisters are all masters. ”

Acacia was confused, so he had to suppress his doubts and enter the warm pavilion with everyone.

The weather outside was already so cold that people stomped their feet, but in the warm pavilion it seemed to be back to the beginning of summer, and the girls took off their heavy clothes as soon as they came in, revealing their beautiful figures, and their movements were much more agile than just now.

Most of the people who came, Acacia didn't know each other, but Meng Xintong would not snub her, plus Meng Xintong's temperament was cold, and people who were not familiar with it didn't have a few good words, Acacia had to follow the jokes and cuteness, which attracted many people to like this little sister.

Meng Ruoyao sat on the soft chair by the window and ate the nuts peeled by the girl, looking at the shy smile of Acacia, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Most of the people sitting next to her are the daughters of nouveau riche or petty officials, and only these newcomers don't know much about the situation of the big house and the second room of Ding'anbo's mansion, so Meng Ruoyang can naturally mix in it, relying on Ding'anbo's momentum to satisfy her vanity.

"Three girls are really rare." The girl sitting next to Meng Ruoyi said flatteringly.

"Isn't it? Otherwise, how could I win my eldest sister's heart so much. Meng Ruoyan looked at Acacia's pink and tender face with a sour smile and said, "Now she and her eldest sister are closer than my own sister." ”

"After all, the second girl is the third girl's sister, how can she not be as good as Miss Meng, the second girl thinks too much."

Meng Ruoyi raised her eyebrows, and said as if she was sad: "I'm afraid she would like to be the eldest sister's own sister, otherwise she won't even go home if her mother comes to call her in person." Isn't it? The eldest sister's family is no better than ours. ”

The girls around her, you look at me, I look at you, and then the topic is changed. It's not a girl from a big door family here, and it's not good to criticize people for Ding'anbo Mansion, it's just that this kind of girl who doesn't even care about her own family in order to cling to her relatives makes them have a plan in their hearts.

Acacia doesn't need to listen to it to know what Meng Ruoyi will say about her behind her back, she has been used to it in her previous life, and she doesn't know if it's because of jealousy or simply looking at her unpleasantly, her own sister has never preferred to wear a pair of pants with Meng Guizhi, and she will not be willing to say a good word about her, even if she broke her heart for this eldest sister and mother in her last life, people are just a stepping stone on her ground, which can be used when she can use it, and kick it aside if she doesn't need it.

Fortunately, justice is in the hearts of the people, even if these girls have something in their hearts today, it is impossible to really care about a little girl like her who is not yet ten years old, and if these girls have been in this circle for a long time, someone will always tell them what it should be, and Meng Ruoyao's lies will always be self-defeating. As long as she grasps the general direction of this circle and lets people who can really speak out help her speak, those gossips will not hurt her fur after all, otherwise there is such a sister dragging her feet behind, and she can't explain it clearly.

"Your third sister is a good one." Shen Jiali took her eyes away from Acacia, took a sip of tea and said to Meng Xintong, who was sitting opposite.

Meng Xintong showed a hint of a smile, pushed the candied fruit plate to Shen Jiali and said, "It really wins my heart." ”

"You want to keep her?" When Shen Jiali saw her laughing, her ridiculous expression retracted, and she said seriously.

Meng Xintong turned his head and saw Acacia's red cheeks again, and said absentmindedly: "It depends on what my father and mother think." ”

Shen Jiali lowered her eyes, suppressed the envy in her heart and said: "The second room of the Meng family will definitely be filled next year at a later date, it really depends on the thoughts of Lord Meng." ”

If Master Meng is willing, the second room of the Meng family may be able to stay in Kyoto, and if Master Meng shows a trace of unwillingness, even if the second room of the Meng family does not return to Yanzhou, it will be released.

Meng Xintong frowned, and did not mention the second room, but asked, "Sister Shen...... How's it going? ”

Shen Jiali smiled bitterly at this time: "That's it." Left not to go to the temple to be a sister-in-law. ”

Meng Xintong's heart jumped, and he said worriedly: "There is no need to get to that point, it is they who want to talk to your family, and it is also the eldest son of their family who has a problem, why is it all your family in the end?" ”

"My grandfather has been a prince since the Holy Father's pro-government, and the marriage contract is just a joke when I was a child, if it weren't for the broken mouth of the aunt in my family, I'm afraid that after my grandfather's resignation, there would be no zài, in the final analysis, it's just that my father is not strict in governing the family, and even my grandfather's reputation is not to mention, I naturally can't be spared." When Shen Jiali said this, she only felt that the tea soup in her mouth was bitter, and there was no sweetness.

"The way of the world is that a woman's life is miserable, even if it is a verbal agreement, his family also went to your door last year to probe the wind, how can his family make trouble all over the city for a woman, but it is just a sentence of heroes and sad beauties, but it will affect your innocent reputation and ruin your reputation." Meng Xintong only feels that women are struggling in this world, everything is not fair, and they can only survive in the frame drawn by the world, as long as the world feels that you take a wrong step, it seems that you will never recover.

"Don't talk about me...... Shen Jiali squeezed out a smile and took Meng Xintong's hand and said: "You are not small, even if you are in the filial piety period, there should always be an explanation in private." ”

Meng Xintong didn't have a trace of shyness about his marriage, but said indifferently: "I believe that my mother's vision is that they are all men, and it is the same for everyone they marry." ”

Shen Jiali patted her hand, sighed and said: "Life is all made by people, you must not hurt each other's feelings in order to be strong, and then cheapen others." ”

"Sister Shen knows a lot, and I don't know who will have this blessing in the future."

Seeing the genuine concern in Meng Xintong's eyes, Shen Jiali took a deep breath, and suddenly became extremely firm and said: "His family wants to let him hug left and right, but I can't let him humiliate my Shen family." This blessing, he can't afford to be solemn! ”

Meng Xintong paused and said, "Uncle Shen, he ......"

Shen Jiali didn't want to talk about it anymore.

"I'm sorry, but the wheels on the carriage were broken, and we were much late."

Meng Xintong heard that someone came in at the door, so he didn't say much, so he could only stand up and greet him.

Acacia ran over curiously, and saw Meng Qizhen on Chengpingbo's Mansion and He Shuyao on Shunkangbo's Mansion entering together.

These two lovesick people have met when they mourn, one is a cousin in her clan, and the other is a girl from the aunt's family, both of whom are acquaintances.

As soon as these two came, the atmosphere was much more lively than before, especially Meng Qizhen's straightforward and gossip-loving temperament, even Shen Jiali loved to talk to her more.

"No, if General Fu hadn't exchanged the carriage for us, we would still be on the street." When He Shuyao said this, she looked at Meng Qizhen with some playfulness, but unfortunately Meng Qizhen nodded again and again, but there was nothing unusual.

"But don't thank him, I grew up with him since I was a child, and if he can't help me with this little thing, what kind of friend is he." Meng Qizhen waved her hand casually, just wanted to talk about what she had seen and heard recently, but when she saw that Shen Jiali was also by her side, she immediately swallowed everything she wanted to say, in order to hide her embarrassment, Meng Qizhen also pulled Acacia over and said, "But I haven't seen you for a while, you have grown taller, how about it?" Why don't you come to my house and play later? ”

Acacia saw that her expression was slightly stiff, although she didn't know the reason, and it was not easy to wipe people's face, so she had to say: "If the big sister goes, I will go." ”

Meng Xintong smiled happily, and also helped Meng Qizhen cover up: "Mother is going to the fourth grandmother to say goodbye in a while, and we will definitely bother one or two." ”

Meng Qizhen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, for the first time she felt that her gossip was really bad, and she was almost about to poke Sister Shen's heart, but the eldest prince of the Suning Hou Mansion was really too deceitful, while thinking about discussing marriage with the Shen family, and on the other hand, she was entangled with a woman, and now she heard that the eldest prince came home and made a big fuss, and wanted to marry the daughter of the little official, I thought that this time I could use it as a talking point, so that everyone can recognize such a person, but I didn't expect that Sister Shen would come.

With Meng Xintong's sentence, Meng Qizhen also thought of other topics, the theme of today is embroidery, even if the girls are not fighting for the first place, they have to take it out to meet the situation, and how many people are waiting for each other's food.

The people are almost complete, and the big food table is full of delicious food, some are hot dishes and some are cold dishes, and the hot dishes are served by the little girls next to them, and the cold dishes are divided into small portions by the little girls, and each girl has a stack in front of them to taste the taste.

Acacia sat next to Meng Chenxi, didn't pay attention to anything, just buried his head in hard work, and occasionally got together with Meng Chenxi to whisper about what was delicious, and he actually experienced the pleasure that he had not experienced in his previous life.

Meng Ruoyi also sat down to eat, she wanted to talk to her eldest sister Meng Xintong several times before, but she couldn't get the point, people always treated her lightly, and she couldn't help but feel a little anxious. Before, she always thought that even if she didn't tie up a big house, she would always be able to find a good family with the momentum of a big house when she got married in the future, but recently she vaguely heard that her father might be released next year...... She is eleven this year, and she will be twelve next year, and she doesn't have a few years to go, so she doesn't want to go to any other place with her father and marry someone with an inconspicuous local status.
