She blushed, lowered her head, and said softly, "Let's talk about Chun Tao first." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Erbao was obviously a little lost.

Mengyun was indifferent to his affectionate confession, but diverted the topic, which was clearly a way of refusal. But he didn't give up, and only heard him say in a tentative tone: "I have saved some silver, can I buy you a better token of love, I don't know what you like?" ”

Mengyun touched his forehead with his hand, revealing a helpless expression, and at the same time, an extremely delicate voice came out of his mouth, "I hate it!" Can't you just get down to business? ”

"Oh, okay, get down to business."

Zhang Erbao nodded, and at the same time silently calculated in his heart, "When I finish talking about serious things, I will find another opportunity to continue to confess to you." ”

He rubbed his nose and opened his recollections: "That was some time ago. One day, I went to the front building to deliver tea. When I reached the end of the corridor on the first floor, I was about to go upstairs. I heard the voices of Chun Tao and Dong Mei. I was curious, I knew that Chun Tao and Dong Mei didn't usually talk much, so I wanted to hear what the two of them were saying. I stood around the corner of the hallway, afraid to make a sound. I only heard Chun Tao say, 'If you don't give it to me, I'll tell Qiulan what happened three years ago and let you go to prison.' Dongmei said, "I've given you everything that should be given to you, what else do you want?" Don't get too close, be careful of retribution......' I listened for a while, fearing that they would find me, so I quietly walked away. I get it, though. It was Dongmei who did something wrong three years ago and was discovered by Chun Tao, and Chun Tao used this to blackmail. You know, this spring peach is the most greedy person in our 'Fengyue Building'. ”

Mengyun nodded, so it was.

It seems that Dongmei's money and goods were not given to Chun Tao willingly, but were all extorted.

She asked Zhang Erbao: "When did you find out about this?" ”

Zhang Erbao thought for a while and said, "It's been a long time, I can't remember it clearly." ”

Mengyun continued to ask him: "Then do you know what Dongmei did wrong three years ago?" ”

Zhang Erbao touched his head and thought for a while: "It should have been three years ago." One day, when Dongmei and Qiu Ju were playing together......"

Mengyun interrupted him and asked, "Who is Qiu Ju?" ”

Zhang Erbao explained: "Qiu Ju is Qiu Lan's sister. That day, Dongmei and Qiu Ju were playing by the well in the backyard. I don't know why, Qiu Ju suddenly fell into the well, and Dongmei dragged her, but she didn't hold it. And this scene happened to be seen by Qiu Lan, who went to the backyard to find Qiu Ju. Qiu Lan saw that her sister had fallen into the well, so she hurriedly ran over to save Qiu Ju. But the well in the backyard was very deep, and Qiu Ju fell headfirst down, so Qiu Lan couldn't save it, she could only lie on the edge of the well and cry bitterly. And Dongmei hurried to find someone to help. By the time everyone salvaged Qiu Ju with all hands and feet, Qiu Ju had already died and her soul had flown out of the sky. Since then, Qiulan has said, 'Qiu Ju was pushed into the well by Dongmei. She also reported the matter to the government. After the official came to check, he arrested Dongmei and put her in a cell for a few days. Later, the government released Dongmei on the grounds of insufficient evidence. It was from that time that Qiulan hated Dongmei, and Dongmei may also know that she was at a loss, so she tolerated Qiulan everywhere. ”

Hearing this, Mengyun's heart was full of questions, and she asked Zhang Erbao, "Do you think Qiu Ju fell into the well by herself, or was she pushed down by Dongmei?" ”

Zhang Erbao said very firmly: "Of course she fell by herself, Dongmei can't push her." At that time, Dongmei and Qiu Ju played together every day, the two of them were like one person, and Qiu Ju was Dongmei's only friend in the 'Fengyue Building', how could Dongmei push her into the well? and there is no injustice or hatred. ”

Mengyun continued to ask, "At that time, Qiu Ju fell into the well, who else was next to her?" ”

Zhang Erbao thought for a while and said, "I ran to save people when I heard Dongmei's cry for help." At that time, there was no one around the well except Qiulan. ”

Mengyun thought about it, it was supposed to be like this, and she fell into deep thought......

"That day, Qiu Ju and Dongmei were playing by the well. Qiu Ju should have dropped something valuable on the edge of the well, she hurriedly bent down to pick it up, but she didn't expect her feet to slip and fall headfirst into the well. Dongmei, who was standing next to her, hurriedly dragged her, but did not hold on. And this scene was not only seen by Qiulan, who had just entered the backyard, but also happened to be seen by Chuntao, who was standing upstairs with the window open. Afterwards, Chun Tao found Dongmei and said to her, 'Qiu Ju fell into the well, not only Qiu Lan saw it, but I also saw it. But I was upstairs! You didn't pay attention, I saw it through the window. Dongmei replied: "Since you have seen it, you should stand up and tell Qiulan that Qiu Ju accidentally fell by herself." What are you doing to me privately now? Chun Tao said, "I just like gold and silver jewelry and money, if you want to gag me, give me all your good things." You know, I'm an important witness! You don't want to be charged with murder. Dongmei replied angrily: "You know that I was wronged, but you still deliberately fall into the well." Is that money and things so important to you? You're despicable! Chun Tao smiled, "Despicable is not as important as money and things, whether to go to prison and wait to be killed, or live here well, you choose!" Dongmei thought about it, but she didn't come up with any good way, so she could only compromise. Since then, as long as Dongmei gets something good, she is asked for by Chun Tao. If others asked, they would say that Dongmei gave it to Chun Tao. ”

Mengyun came back to her senses from her contemplation, she saw that Zhang Erbao was looking at her face blankly with a smile on the corner of her mouth, she didn't want to look at Zhang Erbao, so she turned her head and stared in the direction Zi Yan was walking......

I only heard Zhang Erbao say: "Mengyun, after the serious business is over, it's time to talk about our business." ”

Mengyun glanced at him and asked knowingly, "What's the matter between us?" ”

Zhang Erbao replied shyly: "It's our future business." I'm going to save a lot of money and take you out of the 'Fengyue Tower'." I'm going to buy a house in Shengdu City, and then I'll marry you, and you'll give me another ......."

"Shut up! Zi Yan is back. ”

Mengyun interrupted Zhang Erbao's words in time.

I saw Zi Yan happily running back......

She saw that Mengyun and Zhang Erbao were still talking, so she joked: "Do you two have endless words?" Talking about such speculation, I now know what it means to meet late! What an enviable pair! ”

Mengyun stood up and pretended to beat her, but Zi Yan ran away with a smile.

While running, he said: "The Acacia Bridge is putting river lanterns, but it's lively, do you two want to go and see it?" ”

Mengyun chased Zi Yan to the Acacia Bridge......

Zhang Erbao followed closely behind, and he kept staring at Mengyun's delicate figure with his eyes......

He looked at Mengyun in front of him wearing a white dress, and the skirt was dancing gently with the breeze in the running, as if it was a fairy in the sky walking in the clouds.

Her makeup today is so dazzling in the vast sea of people, like the brightest star in the night sky.

It is just like a trace of clear clouds covering the bright moon on the sea, and she dances in the bright moon, like a dream, so that people can't tell whether it is in the world or in the fairyland......

The Acacia Bridge is crowded with people, and most of the people are vying to see the river lanterns floating on the water.

Mengyun stood behind the crowd, and she stood on tiptoe to look at the river.

After all, there were too many people in front of her, and she couldn't see it very clearly. Zhang Erbao said loudly behind her, "Mengyun, I want to buy you the biggest and most beautiful river lantern." ”

Mengyun turned her head and smiled at him, "You! Let's keep the money and buy a house. ”

Zi Yan tugged at Mengyun's sleeve and said, "There are too many people here, you can't see anything, let's go to the bridge to see." ”

As she spoke, she took Mengyun's hand and walked up to the Acacia Bridge step by step with the flow of people......

As soon as he ascended a few stone steps, Mengyun was stunned by the scene in front of him.

She couldn't help but whisper, "It's so beautiful!" It's spectacular! ”

I saw that there were already a lot of river lanterns floating on the river surface under the Acacia Bridge. Those beautifully made river lanterns are slowly drifting into the distance with the flowing water, and on each river lantern is filled with poems of love for their sweetheart......

In Mengyun's view, those river lanterns are more than just good-looking. It's a kind of yearning, a yearning to be able to stay with your sweetheart......

At this time, the crowd at the back became crowded.

Mengyun was also squeezed to the side. Since she was standing on the stone steps at her feet, she didn't stand firmly, and when she saw that she was about to fall, she instinctively let out a coquettish cry, "Oops! Don't squeeze it! ”

Zi Yan, who was standing next to her, quickly reached out to help her, but she was still a step too late. Mengyun was already on the ground with one hand, and the dagger in her arms also fell out.

Mengyun quickly picked up the dagger and put it in his arms again.

Zi Yan helped her up and asked with concern, "Are you okay?" Are there any injuries? ”

Mengyun shook her head, and she patted the dirt on her hands.

Zi Yan suddenly patted her head and said loudly, "Today, didn't you ask me where I saw your dagger?" I remember. ”

"Oh? Tell me, where did you see it? ”

Mengyun asked impatiently.

Zi Yan recalled, "Some time ago, I went to the front building to deliver fruits. Dongmei walked ahead of me, she was hit by the oncoming spring peach, and I saw a dagger fall from Dongmei's body to the ground. She quickly squatted down and picked it up and put it in her arms again. Still, I saw it. The blade of that dagger is meniscus-shaped, and there is a plum blossom pattern on the hilt, which seems to be the same as yours. ”

Hearing Zi Yan's words, Mengyun suddenly became extremely excited. Dongmei is likely to be her sister, the sister who has been missing for ten years, Meng Yan.

Mengyun asked Zi Yan, "Are you sure it's Dongmei's dagger?" ”

Zi Yan replied with certainty: "Of course, I was still very strange at that time! Why did Dongmei go to the front building to accompany the guests and still carry a knife? ”

Mengyun asked again, "Dongmei dropped the dagger on the ground, who else saw it nearby?" ”

Zi Yan thought for a while and replied, "There is no one else, just me and Chun Tao." ”

Mengyun suddenly brightened.

What Chun Tao wants is most likely Dongmei's dagger.

If Dongmei is really Sister A, then it is impossible for her to give the dagger to Chun Tao. For the dagger is an ancestral heirloom, a pair, and the other is on his body.

Thinking of this, she grabbed Zi Yan's shoulders, shook it vigorously, and said, "Zi Yan, thank you!" You've helped me a lot. ”
