Chapter 5

The breeze raised his clothes and hair slightly, and Ah Shun smiled, "Sister." ”

"Ah Shun." Mei Jiu was full of joy and was about to step forward to hold her hand, but suddenly heard An Jiu cough heavily, so he had to withdraw his hand.

Ah Shun didn't know what was going on, so he took the initiative to reach out and hook Mei Jiu's arm, approached her and whispered, "Sister, I'm a little nervous." ”

An Jiu immediately said angrily, "Keep me away from this woman!" ”

Only Mei Jiu could hear An Jiu's voice, but the physical feelings of the two were synchronized, An Jiu was not used to being close to a person like this, and instinctively wanted to give Ah Shun an over-the-shoulder fall.

"Ah Shun." Mei Jiu was very embarrassed and wanted to push Ah Shun away, but he couldn't find any excuse.

Mei Jiu did not take advantage of the situation to comfort, which made the atmosphere slightly awkward.

Wencui only pretended not to hear, and said with a smile, "Two ladies, please get on the boat." ”

Ah Shun gave Mei Jiu, who was in a strange way, and let her get on the boat first.

In order to prevent Ah Shun from leaning over again, Mei Jiu specially picked the narrowest position in the bow of the boat, so that she could only be accommodated.

Once everyone is on board, the boat moves slowly through the water.

Ah Shun didn't know why Mei Jiu was suddenly estranged, and he was uneasy, planning to find a topic to break this dull scene. She asked the maid beside her, "Wenbi, I don't know much about the rules at home, what is the etiquette when I see the old lady?" ”

Mei Jiu looked at Wen Bi, her appearance is very different from Wen Cui, a slender face is not very beautiful, some heavy single eyelids, when looking at people, there are more white eyes and less black eyes, and she doesn't like to laugh too much, but she speaks kindly, "Our old lady treats people kindly, and there are few children and grandchildren under her knees, and now there are two more granddaughters, she is very happy with the old man, and the lady doesn't need to worry too much." ”

Wen Cui said, "Yes, our old lady is not like the one in Chayunju, she is an old man!" ”

"Are there two old ladies in the house?" Ah Shunqi said.

Wencui explained, "The two old ladies are concubines, our old ladies are the eldest daughters-in-law, and the old ladies of Chayunju are the main wives of the second room, and the two old ladies are gone." ”

An Jiu listened to their narration and roughly understood the situation of this family, the Mei family is currently roughly divided into two rooms, the large house has a small population, and the second room has a prosperous descendant.

The boat is leisurely, and it takes less than a tea day to dock.

A few people disembarked one after another, and they were greeted by a large pine forest, surrounded by evergreen trees, soaked in the morning mist, which was very different from the scene of autumn leaves withering elsewhere.

A girl in a smoke-colored dress stood on the small ferry to greet her, "Sister Wenbi and Wencui are back!" As he spoke, he smiled and saluted Mei Jiu and Ah Shun, "The little maid Chunyi has seen two ladies. ”

Ah Shun saw that Mei Jiu didn't know what to say, so he said, "The girl in spring clothes doesn't need to be polite. ”

An Jiu said dissatisfiedly, "Can you still bale a little more?" Blind with a face that can take out a hand! ”

This is said to Mei Jiu alone.

Standing under the morning light, Mei Jiu was a little less afraid of An Jiu, and said aggrievedly, "I am a village girl, and I won't be a lady." ”

An Jiu got another memory: Mei Jiu has been living in the countryside, but Mei Yanran really didn't treat her as an ordinary village girl, and she never fell behind in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she had little contact with people on weekdays, so she was a little recognized.

While enjoying the scenery, An Jiu said quietly, "The reason why people are above other species is because people have a kind of high-level camouflage skills, and you can't live to such a large number of the most basic camouflage, so it can be seen that you are a defective product." ”

Mei Jiu didn't understand some of the words she said, but because of her heart-to-heart connection, she was able to roughly understand the meaning of this passage. She didn't know how to argue, so she lowered her eyes and looked at her toes.

"Raise your eyes!" An Jiuling said.

"What the hell are you satisfied with?" Mei Jiu felt that this ghost was also a little more lenient!

No one could hear the inner communication between the two, but Ah Shun, who had been paying attention to Mei Jiu, could clearly see the anger flashing on her face.

"Here we are." Wencui reminded.

Mei Jiu looked up at this time.

The building of the Xiangju is different from the carved beams and painted buildings on the side, the combination of green walls and tiles and pine wood, everywhere reveals a simple atmosphere, quite the style of the Qin and Han dynasties.

The buildings are shaded by green pines, and the stream is murmuring, which is quiet and interesting.

A few people stopped outside the house, and Chunyi hurriedly walked in to say goodbye, and returned to welcome them in.

Mei Jiu's nervous heart rose to his throat, and his palms were full of wet and greasy sweat. This was definitely a brutal torture for An Jiu, she killed a group of heartbeats with a single shot without accelerating, and at this time, she could only be forced to feel this tension.

What's more, An Jiu used to have a heartbeat of forty-five times per minute in a normal state, and Mei Jiu was more than ninety, and he had difficulty adapting to it, but now he has directly crossed from forty-five to one hundred and two, which is really like his heart is about to fly out! She wondered if Mei Jiu was going to die suddenly the next moment.

If you want to count on Mei Jiu, you can't do it, and An Jiu hurriedly uses his consciousness to control it.

Maybe it was Mei Jiu's subconscious evasion, she easily controlled her entire body, and the sudden sense of reality made her can't help but jump a little excitedly.

"This is my granddaughter?" A woman's voice came.

An Jiu raised his head, and first met a pair of eyes as blue as the sky, clear and translucent, definitely not the eyes of an old man.

Sure enough, the woman in the dark brown gown on the main seat was no more than forty years old, with eyebrows like willow leaves, narrow eyes, slightly upturned eyes, and a beautiful woman with a beautiful nose and cherry lips.

She laughed with thin lines at the corners of her eyes, "Come here." ”

An Jiu walked in front of her, and Ah Shun followed.

"Good boy." The woman grabbed An Jiu's wrist, felt the bones and probed the pulse without a trace, and when she realized that there was nothing unusual, the smile on her face paused slightly, and she carefully examined An Jiu's face.

"Good boy." Looking at An Jiu, she finally noticed something different, such a cold gaze was definitely unusual, "What's your name?" ”

"Umejiu." An Jiu's concise and powerful way.

The woman frowned, "What is this name, that you should neglect my granddaughter like this?" ”

She looked at the pine forest outside the door and muttered for a long time, "The plum blossoms are like snow, and the whole body is still full." From now on...... Your name is Mei Ruxue, and this name is also recorded on the family tree. ”

"Yes, grandmother." An Jiu agreed very "well-behaved", the name is just a code name, as long as it is not cruel, it is acceptable.

Mei Jiu suddenly couldn't control her body, and in a panic, she heard that the old lady had changed her name, and she didn't follow it, "Jiu is the name given by my mother, and it means Changshun and Jiu'an, and you can't change it casually!" ”

An Jiu coldly threatened, "Shut up, otherwise I will kill your mother, you want a name or a mother!" ”

Mei Jiu immediately stopped.

"What about you?" The old lady looked at Ah Shun.

Ah Shun was overjoyed and hurriedly replied, "Mei Shun." ”

"Huh, didn't go well? Even more unlucky. The old lady was also not satisfied, and said, "It's called Mei Ruyan, which means flame." ”

Wencui praised, "The white plum is like snow, the red plum is like a flame, the name of the old lady is really beautiful!" ”

The old lady smiled and said, "Where, where, it's far worse than the second room!" Snort, Mei Zhengjing, not serious, this kind of talent for naming is really something I can't catch up with. ”

Several handmaidens covered their mouths and chuckled, Wencui laughed, "The old lady will make fun of people." ”

"Okay, I don't like to be noisy, let's go back! Wencui, Wenbi, you help to make a little bit of a dot, brighten your eyes, and choose some good girls to serve them. The old lady got up and went out with her spring coat's hand.

When he was about to reach the door, he paused, "Ruyan, Mei's kindness, don't forget." ”

Ah Shun's heart sank, knowing that the fact that he was not Mei's daughter was exposed, he immediately knelt on the ground with a puff, "Yes, Ruyan swears not to forget." ”

An Jiu saw the old lady's backlit side face with a shallow smile, peaceful but profound. She was so kind and warm when she spoke to people, but she was very cold in her actions, just as she felt now.

"Fourteen Niang, Fifteen Niang, the maid will accompany you to Chayunju." Wencui said.

An Jiu nodded, always feeling that the atmosphere here was a little wrong.

Mei Jiu struggled to control his body, and An Jiu said coldly, "Give me some peace!" ”
