However, it was not easy to meet Song Yi. After all, she is a married young woman, and if you don't get it right, it will cause misunderstanding. This matter has to be considered in the long run.

What we can do now is to take a look at Mingzhe's situation first.

After taking a look, Qianning proposed to Cui's and Liu's to go to Yininglou to see some jewelry, because it was Zhong's birthday in a few days, and she had to show something.

Cui and Liu naturally agreed.

When Meng Ying heard about this, she also offered to go with her. was reprimanded by Tian: "You are a woman who has not been out of the cabinet, why do you always want to show up?" Your sister-in-law is going to buy gifts for your mother-in-law, what are you going to do? ”

Mengying was not happy, and got into Tian's arms to be coquettish: "Grandmother, I'm bored at home all day, so you let me go out to breathe." ”

Tian still kept his face calm and did not nod.

Lian Chengmei said with a smile: "In a few days, Mrs. Li will come to the door to propose, and the third sister will not be idle." ”

Unexpectedly, the Li family really fell in love with Mengying, and they all reached the stage of discussing marriage. It seems that a trip to the palace banquet has brought the Hou Mansion back to the vision of the nobles in the capital. Qian Ning said secretly.

Meng Ying was suddenly mentioned about her family, and her face suddenly became hot: "Second sister-in-law, this matter has not been decided yet." How can you talk nonsense. If it gets out, where will my face go? ”

"Your second sister-in-law is right." Tian Zhengse said, "When the marriage is officially decided, you have to take care of your temperament." Even now, don't always run out, it's not good for Mrs. Li to know. ”

Meng Ying hated being held in the middle of nowhere, and pouted: "The second sister hasn't decided yet, I'm not in a hurry, and I don't want to get married so soon." ”

"Presumptuous! Which daughter does not marry? "Cui Shi couldn't help but teach Mengying a lesson." These days are too indulgent for you, but you need to discipline them. ”

Meng Ying asked for her lips aggrievedly, lowered her head and did not speak.

Looking at Mengqian who was mentioned again, her face was still calm, as if she had nothing to do.

Qian Ning sighed secretly, if it is only about appearance and temperament, Mengqian is not inferior to Mengying, but her identity is worse, and her temperament is not so pleasing, otherwise she should be in love with Mengqian.

When the morning greeting was over, Qian Ning caught up with Mengqian, who was walking in front, and kindly invited: "Second sister, why don't you go to Yininglou with me?" ”

Mengqian was about to open her mouth, but Liu preemptively said, "No need." ”

With a cold tone and a demeanor of rejection, Qian Ning couldn't help but be surprised, why did Liu's attitude towards herself suddenly change?

Xu is Liu also felt the stiffness of his attitude, and softened his tone slightly: "Mother just said, women who have not left the pavilion should always run out, and Mengqian should also pay attention." ”

This is true, although I want to take Mengqian out more, maybe I can have more opportunities, but it is not good to disobey the Tian family.

"What my mother said was that I was running out of thoughts." Qian Ning sincerely admitted her mistake and went back on her own to prepare to go out.

Liu Shi looked at Qianning's back as she walked away, and there was some coldness in her eyes.

Meng Qian said softly: "Why did my mother reject my sister-in-law so decisively? The sister-in-law is also kind. ”

"Although it is a good intention, you have to weigh whether it is appropriate." Liu Shi retracted his eyes and looked at Mengqian, "Your sister-in-law is not a thing in the pool, you keep some distance from her." ”

Mengqian was surprised, isn't the Liu family very happy to be good friends with Qianning? Why did you suddenly change your attitude? Could it be that something happened?

Mengqian responded to Liu's words on her face, but in her heart, she secretly decided to ask Ling'er why.

Before noon, Qian Ning arrived at a Ninglou. first looked for Zhang De and listened in detail about the situation going to Nanping.

I only heard what Zhang De said, and the person sent took the documents to the government and started the mining matters smoothly. He also ordered a confidant to find Song Yi's two Nanping friends to explore the matter of Xiaohua. It is said that it was the wife of a nobleman in Nanping who made the night flowers, and the purpose of making drugs was also to compete for favor in the back house. The most likely person holding the prescription is the maid next to the lady, but it will take a lot of effort to find out who it is.

Zhang De was also a little helpless: "Although people have been sent to search with all their might, and there are also two friends from Song Ergongzi to help, but there are many people in Nanping, and it will take a lot of time to find these people one by one to investigate, and I don't know if it will delay the girl's affairs?" ”

I really won't delay, and now in this situation, I don't want to get pregnant so soon.

"It's out of the way," Qian Ning said, "this matter is already very troublesome, so don't rush it." He turned his head to look upstairs again, "Is Mingzhe there?" What's wrong with him these days? ”

Speaking of Mingzhe, Zhang Deben's calm face suddenly became sad: "After Mingzhe Gongzi became obsessed with firing pottery, he tinkered with ceramic products every day, but our conditions are limited, and Gongzi is always dissatisfied with the pottery made, and he has been shouting to go to Jingdezhen, Jiangxi Province to learn art in the past two days." The little one persuaded him several times, but the son always couldn't listen to him, and the little one was afraid that the son would pack his bags and run away one day. ”

This Mingzhe, when he has grown up, how can he still be willful and reckless like when he was a child. Not to mention that Jiangxi is far away, I don't know what hardships and dangers will be encountered along the way, it is his dignity and unobtrusive temperament, I am afraid that he will be abducted before he arrives in Jiangxi.

Qian Ning had a faint headache, sighed, and comforted Zhang De: "Don't worry, I'll persuade him." ”

After saying that, he went upstairs to find Mingzhe.

When I got to the third floor, I saw Mingzhe sitting on the ground, looking at the stove in a daze. I didn't notice Qianning's arrival at all.

Qian Ning walked over and patted him on the shoulder: "What do you think?" So focused. ”

Mingzhe seemed to be taken aback, turned around and said unhappily: "Why did you come suddenly?" It scares the hell out of me. ”

Qian Ning pulled a chair and sat down, looking at Mingzhe for a long time: "I heard that you are going to Jingdezhen to learn art, can I still not come?" If you don't come again, I'm afraid that there will be people here, right? ”

Mingzhe had a cold face and said hatefully: "I knew he would go to you to complain." I'm not a three-year-old child, but I'm just going to Jingdezhen, why don't you let me go! ”

Listening to Mingzhe's tone, it seemed that he was quite persistent about the trip to Jingdezhen, and Qian Ning had to persuade patiently: "Do you need to ask this reason?" One, you haven't been far away, and as soon as you go out, you're going to Jingdezhen so far away, how can you let me and Shopkeeper Zhang rest assured? Second, you have a simple temperament, and you are the most defenseless towards people, what if you are deceived on the road? Three, it's going to be the end of the year, and you have to make the jewelry for the election after the New Year, this time you went to Jingdezhen, so who will do this work? Do you think these reasons are not enough to discourage you from making this trip? ”

Mingzhe still didn't give up: "Your reasons are not valid, good men are ambitious in all directions, I have grown up so big, and I haven't gone out to see the world, it's really a big regret in life, if you don't worry, you can send more people to protect me." Speaking of candidacy, Qing'er, you can also do design. I think you were more talented than me. ”

Mingzhe said earnestly, remembering that he had been detained in a Ninglou, and he had indeed wronged him. But if you really let him go to Jingdezhen, firstly, a lot of manpower will be sent to Nanping, and he will not be able to vacate people for a while, and secondly, he is in the Hou Mansion, and it is difficult to hide people's eyes and ears to do jewelry design.

Mingzhe saw that Qianning's expression seemed to be relaxed, and he added fuel and vinegar: "Good Qing'er, good sister, I'll go and see the craftsmanship over there, learn from the experience, and it will be beneficial for future design, and I will go for a few days, and I promise to come back before the New Year, and I won't make you embarrassed in front of the master." ”

Qian Ning sighed: "I'll think about it again." ”
