When I entered the door of the courtyard, I saw Xia Fengyi, Wen Wen, Zuo Jiayin and Feiyan walking towards the dining room of their home, and it seemed that they had just dispersed, so they chased after them.

"Why did you get back?"

Xia Fengyi saw Meng Tianchu catching up, so she stopped and said, "Fortunately, you weren't there just now." ”

Meng Tianchu: "What, could it be that you broke up unhappily?" ”

Gentle and non-smiling: "Let you guess correctly." ”

Meng Tianchu: "Why? ”

Zuo Jiayin said with a smile: "Let's go to dinner first, let's drink two glasses of wine, I'm really hungry." ”

Feiyan: "I'll quickly ask the kitchen to get us some snacks to fill our stomachs first, you go sit first, I'll come right away." ”

A few people came to the gazebo in the courtyard and sat down, and soon the people brought some snacks and fruits, and everyone talked while eating.

Meng Tianchu: "What do you mean by being fortunate that I'm not here?" ”

Zuo Jiayin: "Because it's related to you." ”

Xia Fengyi and Wen Rou snickered, Meng Tianchu saw that Zuo Jiayin's expression was a little strange, so he said: "You guys like to joke about me recently, when I want to clean you up one by one and put a few boards, you will be obedient." ”

Xia Fengyi: "Okay, okay, let's not go around with Tianchu anymore, Tianchu's temper is good, if it is any other man, where are we women allowed to laugh with their men for a day?" ”

Meng Tianchu: "It's not impossible to laugh. But you can't make me a laughing stock. ”

Gentle: "Okay, good, good, we don't say that you are, but you were really lucky not to be there just now, isn't Wang Zhutou looking for you?" ”

Meng Tianchu nodded yes.

Gentle: "Then the king is really at the right time to catch the head." ”

Meng Tianchu: "Okay, you said that you won't go around with me, but you still haven't told me, why did everyone suddenly disperse?" ”

Gentleness made the maids and subordinates who were waiting on the side retreat. Only then did he whisper: "When you left, didn't Master Cheng say that there was good news for everyone?" ”

Meng Tianchu nodded.

Gentleness: "Do you know what good news that is?" ”

Meng Tianchu shook his head and said he didn't know.

Smiled gently. Said: "Lord Cheng said that he found an in-law for Xiaonuo. ”

Meng Tianchu didn't know why his heart sank, but he didn't show it. Said: "That's a good thing, why did it disperse?" ”

Zuo Jiayin: "How else can I say that it has something to do with you?" ”

Meng Tianchu: "Okay, here we go again." ”

Xia Fengyi: "I'll talk about it." ”

Meng Tianchu: "That's it, it's better to let Feng Yi say." ”

Xia Fengyi: "Master Cheng said that he found a family for Xiaonuo, and said that he was still the fourth son of the commander of the Eight Banners of the Beijing, what is Heqi's name, he is seventeen years old today, and his appearance and character are not bad." But as soon as Lord Cheng spoke, Xiaonuo refused. Meng Tianchu: "It's still good." I've heard of this, and Lord Cheng is a second-grade official, and he is also a tiger general on the battlefield. ”

Xia Fengyi nodded and said, "We think so too, but guess what Xiaonuo said?" ”

Meng Tianchu couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in his heart. It felt like it had something to do with me, but he still shook his head and said, "Then how do I know?" ”

Xia Fengyi said: "Xiaonuo said that she is still young, if she must marry." Find one you like, too. And then he said..."

Xia Fengyi looked at Meng Tianchu and said nothing, Meng Tianchu secretly swallowed his saliva. Nervously said, "Go on, what else did you say?" ”

Gentle and said: "I also said that I want to find a man who loves her and loves her like you, or I won't marry." ”

Meng Tianchu's head buzzed, I heard Wang Yidi mean before, probably Cheng Ziyi is now saying kiss to Xiaonuo, hoping to find a person to talk to at a critical time for himself, and now he is a big celebrity around Long Live Ye, and it should be good for Cheng Ziyi to be able to marry him, who wants Xiaonuo to refuse at this time, Cheng Ziyi naturally didn't have a good mood to explain to her, saying that he may not have a lot of opinions about Meng Tianchu.

Meng Tianchu: "I spoil her and love her because she is small, and she has no other meaning." ”

Xia Fengyi: "We all know it, but Jiayin told you that in fact, Xiaonuo is not young, and the girl from ordinary people's families is already married at the age of Xiaonuo." Meng Tianchu's vest was chilled for a while, and said, "What about later?" ”

Gentle: "Later, Lord Cheng was naturally furious, saying that there was no room for discussion with Xiaonuo this time, and that he would take Xiaonuo to the capital to see Heran in three days, and it would be best to get married by the end of this year." ”

Meng Tianchu thought about it, could this Cheng Ziyi really have something to do with Hangzhou Mansion's greed for ink and special silver? If not, then why is he still thinking of exchanging his most precious daughter for favors at this time, when he is checking him above? Besides, Xiao Wei is now a celebrity next to Long Live Lord, Xiao is the only sentence, since Cheng Ziyi feels that Xiao Wei is not sure about it, it seems that this time not only Cheng Ziyi is really related to greedy ink, but also Long Live Lord is serious. Thinking about it again, Wan Sui Ye didn't let himself enter Beijing, but let himself stay in the city, is it also related to this matter? Then who is the Lord of Long Live sending to investigate this matter?

Zuo Jiayin bowed his head in Meng Tianchu and said silently: "Tianchu, what are you thinking?" ”

Meng Tianchu raised his head and pretended to say: "I'm thinking that Xiaonuo, this girl has a strong temperament, not worse than Jian Ning's girl, Jian Ning fought to the death in order not to enter the palace, I am a little worried that Xiaonuo's body has not recovered now, if she is really let into Beijing, will she..."

Gentleness: "We were also talking about this before, saying that it may not be that Cheng Ziyi will let you do work for Xiaonuo." ”

"Me?"

Before Meng Tianchu finished speaking, he saw Cheng Ziyi's housekeeper walking over with a smile on his face. Walking up to Meng Tianchu, he first saluted respectfully, and then said, "Lord Meng, my family asked you to come over and say that there is something to discuss with you." ”

Xia Fengyi: "I'm bothering the housekeeper to go and tell the adults, my adults will go as soon as they eat it." ”

The housekeeper retreated when he heard this, and Meng Tianchu said, "What, Fengyi, do you have something to tell me?" ”

Xia Fengyi saw that the housekeeper was far away, so she said: "I think that when you become an adult, you should do it for Xiaonuodi." Now that you are a person in the officialdom, we are women's families, and there are some things we don't understand. But I think we still can't afford to offend adults. ”

Meng Tianchu nodded. Zuo Jiayin said: "Sister Fengyi said yes, but when you weigh this matter, you'd better consider Xiaonuo's feelings, don't take into account the thoughts of adults and hurt Xiaonuo, she is really good to you." ”

Meng Tianchu stood up and said, "Alas, let's go, if I can't do both, I can't do it." Let's see. ”

Meng Tianchu was about to leave, Wen Rou suddenly thought of something, and said, "By the way, Miss Yin said a word when we were in the dining room before. ”

Meng Tianchu: "What did she say?" ”

Gentleness: "She was right next to me at the time, and her voice was not loud. But I still heard it, she said that the bell must be tied to the bell, and then said that Cheng Ziyi is similar to Jian Qi, but he is smarter than Jian Qi. ”

Meng Tianchu listened. I have a number in my heart. He nodded and left without speaking.

Meng Tianchu walked out of the East Courtyard. Seeing Yin Susu sitting in a gazebo not far away, with no servants and maids next to him, he thought about the gentle words he said before, and walked over, and before he could speak, he heard Yin Susu say: "Don't you hurry up, adults?" ”

"Why, Miss Yin also knows that Master Cheng is looking for me?"

Yin Susu smiled indifferently, and Meng Tianchu found that although this girl rarely showed a smile, she was very good-looking when she smiled.

"I don't know who is looking for you, but when I saw the adults hurrying, I wondered if it would be as idle as visiting the garden and enjoying the flowers."

Meng Tianchu secretly laughed, this Yin Susu is different from Jiayin, she seems to be more urban than Jiayin, probably a young talent, the reason why she became the owner of the village at a young age, naturally speaks and thinks more comprehensively than others, otherwise how many times the court has no way to take the Yin family?

"I came here on purpose to ask the girl."

Yin Susu didn't have any expression, looked at Meng Tianchu, and said, "Ask me something, I don't know anything." ”

Meng Tianchu smiled, Yin Susu raised his eyebrows, looked at him with a pair of Danfeng eyes, and said, "What are you laughing at?" ”

Meng Tianchu: "Okay, I won't ask you, Lord Cheng is waiting." After speaking, Yin Susu said: "I asked you something, what are you laughing at me?" ”

Meng Tianchu said: "I see that the girl is used to being the owner of the village, I laugh, not just laughing at you, you just remind me of a person." ”

Yin Susu: "Who?" ”

Meng Tianchu: "I don't have to say it. Yin Susu: "If you don't say it, I won't let you go today." ”

Meng Tianchu smiled again and said, "I'm not from your cottage, why should I listen to you, the young village master?" ”

Yin Susu was unrelenting, and said: "Who said that you are not, you are obviously the second master of our village." ”

Meng Tianchu: "I have never been happy to be under a woman's hands. After speaking, he walked away, who would have thought that Yin Susu jumped up, flew past Meng Tianchu, stood in front of Meng Tianchu, looked at Meng Tianchu with a serious face, and said, "What do you mean by this, you underestimate me?" ”

Meng Tianchu shrugged his shoulders and said, "I can't beat you, and even if I can, I can't fight with a woman." ”

Yin Susu seemed to be really enraged, and came over with a wave of his hand, Meng Tianchu quickly dodged, Yin Susu slapped his backhand again, but was stopped, Meng Tianchu saw that it was actually a dragon slay.

Slaying the dragon arched his hand and said to Yin Susu: "Miss Yin, my family doesn't know martial arts, you don't know, you seem to be taking advantage of people's danger like this, and some villains are acting." ”

Yin Susu sneered, "Really? He was deliberately provoking with me. ”

Slaying the dragon still said respectfully: "Since Miss Yin knows that my family is deliberately provoking you, why should you be fooled? We're going to go to Master Cheng now, so I won't say more to Miss Yin. ”

Yin Susu stopped his hand and said, "No, he has to tell me, why are you laughing at me?" ”

Dragon Slayer looked at Meng Tianchu. Meng Tianchu said: "Okay, I'll tell you, you remind me of a person, a woman named Lin Daiyudi, but she is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, and her appearance is at least a delicate woman who is weak and can't help but be windy, which is different from Miss Yin." ”

Yin Susu: "I'm not interested in knowing who Lin Daiyu is, since it's different, then why do you want to compare me with her?" ”

Dragon Slayer: "Miss Yin, can't we talk about this question later?" Now adults are really in a hurry to find us. ”

Yin Susu: "Then I don't care." I have to ask Master Meng before he can go. ”

Meng Tianchu smiled and said, "You are all women. And you have a lot in common, that is, you like to hold on to a problem. ”

Yin Susu said: "That's why you laugh at me?" ”

Meng Tianchu nodded.

Yin Susu: "Okay. Let's go. ”

Meng Tianchu was about to leave, and Yin Susu said: "Everything must be seen from both sides, what do you say, Master Meng." ”

After hearing this, Meng Tianchu knew in his heart, and also knew the reason why this smart woman wanted to stay here for a long time, and couldn't help but feel a little grateful to her, this method couldn't help but give him time to think, and the most important thing was to let Master Cheng have a trace of concern about himself in his heart.

Meng Tianchu took the dragon slayer and walked towards Lord Cheng's study, and the dragon slayer said, "Then why is Yin Susu so unreasonable. ”

Meng Tianchu smiled but did not answer. The two of them came to the door of Cheng Ziyidi's study, and Tu Long stepped forward and said, "Lord Cheng, Lord Meng is here." ”

Someone in the room said, "Let him in." ”

Meng Tianchu stepped into the door, the door closed quietly behind him, and Cheng Ziyi sat on his own chair. He didn't get up, his brows were furrowed, he held his forehead with one hand, and leaned back in his chair, looking exhausted.

"Tianchu. Come. Sit down. ”

Meng Tianchu sat on the chair opposite Cheng Ziyi and looked at the tea bowl next to him. Cheng Ziyi said: "I will make you a good tea, and I will go to Longjing, I heard that you like it." ”

"Thank you, Lord Cheng."

"Tianchu, I guess you also know what the old man is looking for you, right?"

Meng Tianchu didn't speak, only smiled slightly.

Cheng Ziyi: "My little girl let me and my wife have been spoiled since childhood, but now that she has grown up, her wings are stiff, and she can't stop our words, the old man really has nothing to do, so I asked you to do the old man a favor." ”

Meng Tianchu: "Lord Cheng is polite, if there is any need to do a lowly job, you must do your best." ”

Cheng Ziyi listened, breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "I'm old, now Xiaowei and my three sons are in the capital, and my wife and I will return to Beijing next year, so I want to find a home for Xiaonuo, so that the old man has nothing to worry about, who would think that she would not be willing to obey." ”

Meng Tianchu: "The name of the parents, the words of the matchmaker, I think Xiaonuo just can't accept it for a while, talk to her well, she should be able to understand the good intentions of you and your wife." ”

Cheng Ziyi's frowning brows finally relaxed, and said: "So I want you to tell Xiaonuo, she has always listened to you, I hope you can help the old man with this, it's really difficult for you, Xiaowei's affairs make you worry, Xiaonuo's affairs also need you to come forward, the old man really doesn't know how to thank you." ”

Meng Tianchu hurriedly got up and said, "Lord Cheng, please don't say that, go and tell Xiaonuo first, I'll do my best." ”

Cheng Ziyi got up and walked to Meng Tianchu's side, patted Meng Tianchu's shoulder, and said, "It's not about doing your best, but you must do it, and let her agree to go to Beijing with me in three days." ”

Meng Tianchu felt that his shoulder was almost misplaced by Cheng Ziyi's two pats, he quickly nodded and said, "It's okay to say yes, but I have a concern." ”

Cheng Ziyi glanced at Meng Tianchu and said, "What, if you have any concerns, but it's okay to say it, I'll listen to it too." ”

Meng Tianchu saw Cheng Ziyi's somewhat skeptical eyes, and thought, you let me come out to be this villain, whether it is good or bad, it has nothing to do with you, a father, but I can't just take into account your feelings, Xiaonuo is also a person, why do these fathers always like to push their children forward when they encounter difficulties?

Meng Tianchu: "Xiaonuo's leg injury, will there be any impact along the way, after all, the boat is tired, the weather is hot, whether it will be infected or serious, this is one of them; Second, Xiaonuo went on a blind date this time, to meet his in-laws' land and his future father-in-law's land, people saw that Xiaonuo couldn't walk, couldn't move, and looked sick, would they have any thoughts? After all, he is a very popular minister, and the person who wants to marry their family, he thinks that he must have stepped on the threshold of their family, and if he takes Xiaonuo at this time, will he not have a very good impression of Xiaonuo? That's what I mean, and I hope that adults will weigh it well. ”

Cheng Ziyi thought for a while and said, "Well, it's not unreasonable for the virtuous nephew to think about it, so if you don't go now, what if people change their hexagrams?" ”
