――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

I smiled slyly: "Didn't she run away with Xie Qiuniang?" ā€

Tang Meng glanced at me meaningfully and said softly, "I hope she can run far away." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½ā€

The river widened ahead, and the canoe slowly paddled into a small, calm lake, in the middle of which was anchored a quaint Upon boat, with six red clay stoves in the bow, and an old man with gray hair sitting on the deck basking in the sun.

Tang Meng seemed to be very familiar with him, and said with a smile: "Boss He doesn't do business today?" ā€

The old man saw Tang Meng hurriedly stand up and smiled: "It turned out to be Mrs. Qu, this is ......"

"My brother!"

The old man surnamed He invited us in with a smile on his face, and a handsome girl in the cabin prepared a mat for us, Tang Meng smiled: "Boss He picks up a few good dishes to make, our sisters and brothers are rarely free today, just to look at the scenery here, and taste the first delicacy of Huiji." ā€

Old man He smiled and said, "Daughter, prop up the boat and take Mrs. Qu and her sister and brother to Lotus Man!" ā€

The lake breeze is gentle, moist and cool, and on this hot summer day, people feel an indescribable sense of comfort from the heart.

Old man He quickly put on the four exquisite side dishes of white lotus root, fried golden cicada, stuffed water chestnut, and drunken crab, took out a jar of fine wine and put it beside me, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Qu, you use it first, and the hot dishes will come up immediately." ā€

Tang Meng smiled slightly: "Don't worry, you can do it slowly." ā€

I patted open the clay seal and poured wine into the clay bowl in front of Tang Meng, picked up my own wine bowl and said, "Congratulations to our sister and brother on your success." ā€

Tang Meng smiled: "What is the great achievement? It's nothing more than tyrannizing other people's territory and taking away other people's lovers. ā€

I smiled embarrassedly: "Sister, don't say that, from another point of view, I actually did a great deed for the benefit of others and myself, otherwise that tigress would definitely put Xie Qiuniang and Wu Sisi to death." ā€

Tang Meng lightly touched my bowl and said, "Drink!" ā€

Tang Meng and I drank it all, Tang Meng took a piece of lotus root and fed it to me, and said with a smile: "Do you remember that every time you have to feed you after an hour, you are willing to eat?" ā€

I nodded, but I didn't remember anything in my head, after all, I wasn't really a tortoise. Thinking about the tortoise's childhood, it was also a happy one, with such a big beauty feeding and eating.

Tang Meng said: "In the blink of an eye, you have become a handsome young man. ā€

I whispered, "In my heart you will always be my sister, and you have never changed. ā€

Tang Meng nodded with feeling, put down the wine bowl and said: "You have changed a lot, although you are not as naughty and naughty as before, but your scheming is much deeper than before." ā€

I hurriedly confessed: "The little turtle has never had any scheming in front of my sister. ā€

"I know!" Tang Meng looked at the lake in the distance, not far away was already full of lotus flowers, and the air was also filled with fresh lotus fragrance, Tang Meng said quietly: "When I left Zhuji, I never thought about what my future would be? I don't even know if I can live......" There were tears in her beautiful eyes, and it could be seen that she had suffered a lot over the years.

I whispered: "If Wu Qi hadn't harmed you at the beginning, I guess our sister and brother would still be living happily in Zhuji City." ā€

Tang Meng shook his head, looked at me with beautiful eyes and said, "Little turtle, in fact, there is a sentence I have long wanted to tell you, no matter how much money you earn in this business, no matter what kind of connections you have, you are still humble in the eyes of the world." Her gaze fell on the spotless lotus flower on the side: "Just like the lotus flower in front of her, no matter how bright she is, her roots are rooted in the mud, which is a reality that can never be avoided." ā€

I didn't understand what she meant by saying this to me, was she trying to persuade me to stop the idea of opening a nightclub?

Tang Meng said: "Little turtle, you are different from your mother, she has long been accustomed to the operation of this industry and cannot change it, while you are still young and have the opportunity to change your fate." ā€

I smiled and said, "Is my sister planning to ask my brother-in-law to help me find a serious position?" ā€

Tang Mengwan smiled: "If you really want to be an official, of course I will try my best to help you." ā€

Old man He brought in the fragrant steamed fish with lotus leaf powder, and Tang Meng smiled: "Eat it while it's hot first, and we'll talk later." ā€

This old man He's cooking skills are indeed outstanding, no wonder Tang Meng took me to come here on such a long waterway, and I was full of praise for my food: "I can't imagine that my sister is still a gourmet." ā€

Tang Meng looked at me gently: "I will cook and eat in two days, I remember that when you were a child, you liked to drink the fish head soup I made the most." ā€

An inexplicable warmth rose in my heart, in my heart I already regarded Tang Meng as my own sister, thinking of those blasphemous thoughts about her at the beginning, I couldn't help but feel ashamed, and silently reminded myself that I must treat Tang Meng well in the future.

Tang Meng said: "You'd better let Wu Sisi not show up easily, if you are met by Xu Chunhua, I'm afraid it will be a big trouble." ā€

I nodded and said frankly: "Sister, I temporarily settled Wu Sisi in a private house in the south of the city, and I lived in a simple house on weekdays, so I wouldn't let Xu Chunhua meet it." ā€

Tang Mengxiu frowned slightly, thought for a while and said: "I have a house in the western suburbs of Huiji, and I rarely go to live on weekdays, so it is better for you to settle her there temporarily, as long as she is still in Huiji City, it is inevitable that there will be a chance to meet, if she is unfortunately met by Xu Chunhua, it will definitely set off an uproar." ā€

"Thank you, sister!" I picked up the wine bowl for Tang Meng and handed it to her, and said with a smile: "My sister just lent me 10,000 taels of gold and lent me a set of mansions, how should I, as a brother, thank you?" ā€

Tang Meng glanced at me and said, "Where are there so many polite words between you and my sister and brother!" ā€

I smiled and said, "It's better to be like this, after the Lan Kwai Fong nightclub opens, I will count half of your shares, and we will divide the dividends we earn in half." ā€

Tang Meng smiled: "You bastard, do you have anything else in your head besides money and women?" ā€

I said solemnly: "Yes, there are still you, and mother, I, Lu Xiaogui, swear to God here today that I will never let anyone bully you!" ā€

Tang Meng was stunned for a while, because of my words, her beautiful eyes actually became moist, she stretched out her slender hand and gently touched my face, and said movingly: "Good brother...... Sister can have you this sentence is already content......"

Tang Meng was slightly drunk, and told me interesting stories about the tortoise's childhood with a smile, and I could only listen happily, folding off two wide lotus leaves and putting them on her and my heads respectively, blocking the scorching sunlight in the sky. The water of the lake is clear, and sometimes there are fish swimming by, and the whole body and mind are unconsciously immersed in this beautiful nature.

Tang Meng sighed from the bottom of his heart: "How good it would be if we could live a carefree life like this every day!" ā€

I paddled the barrel closer to her, the sun bathed in her delicate body, outlining a seductive golden outline around her, Tang Meng closed her eyes, raised her pretty face, and breathed in the refreshing air, she was a goddess with her arms slowly opened, as if she was about to fly away at any moment, this picture is forever fixed in my heart, and it will never be erased......
