Chapter Eighty-Eight: A Family Affair

Mei Huailing picked up the pen and put it down, Fang Cai wrote down two words, and then rolled the rice paper into a ball and threw it on the ground.

Mei Huailing didn't know why today, he was quite upset, but he smelled the smoked bamboo fragrance, and he didn't like it. So he took a cup of tea and extinguished the incense.

When the scholar saw Mei Huailing like this, he was also wandering at the door, and he was going in and out, which made Mei Huailing even more upset.

"If you have something, say it, and don't block the door if you have nothing to do."

When the scholar saw Mei Huailing talking, he stubbornly said, "Second son, eldest son, please come over." ”

"Big brother is looking for me, but what is the matter?"

The scholar shook his head, "The eldest prince never said. ”

"But there's someone else?"

"A few old gentlemen in the academy are not there."

When the scholar saw Mei Huailing put down the pen, he rubbed a piece of freshly laid rice paper in his hand and threw it on the ground. I don't know why, since the second son came back from Chang'an City, he has always been unable to calm down, and the rice paper thrown on the ground is more than usual in a month.

"But in a hurry?"

"Xu Yes, there is no one else on the side of the eldest son, probably waiting for the second son."

Mei Huailing responded, so he got up and went to the eldest prince of Mei.

Meijia Academy is located on the top of the entire Qinghe Mountain, not to mention the side, the boundary is not small.

Mei Huailing lives in a remote area, although it is on the top of the Qinghe Mountain, but it is separated from the Mei Academy by a pool of clear water.

The place where Mei Huailing lives is the Mei family, and at first there were a few people from the Mei family who lived here, but when it came to Mei Huailing's generation, there were only Mei Huailing and Mei Congjia.

And Mei Congjia is the dean of the academy, and he lives in the academy, so there are only a few Mei Huailing in this huge Mei family.

Mei Huailing walked along the corridor with bells, and then stepped into the front yard of the Mei Family Academy, and the sound of reading was loud.

"Something?"

Mei Congjia lived in the study, and Mei Huailing stepped into the room just now and saw Mei Congjia flipping through the classics.

"You didn't come back if you were invited, and if you did, you didn't come to see me."

Mei Congjia saw Mei Huailing coming, but she was always warm, "On the day of the first bloom of plum blossoms this year, you are going to reach the crown, how can you still be such a child?" ”

Mei Huailing was silent.

"How about I have nothing to ask me for?"

"Naturally, there is something."

Mei Huailing seemed to be deliberately avoiding Mei Congjia's gaze, and intentionally or unintentionally left away.

"If there's anything, just say it."

"You also heard the words of a few elders in the Ri clan and a few gentlemen from the academy, what are you going to do?"

Mei Huailing: "Meijia Academy since the beginning of the institute, is to take from the plum of the lonely fragrance of self-appreciation, this lotus out of the mud without staining the meaning, what you want is to be different, to Qing Lixue." ”

"You have now agreed to the proposal of King Qin and Taifu, so that the Mei Family Academy and the Guozijian can study and communicate with each other, if there are more relatives in the academy, I don't know how much trouble there will be in the future."

Mei Huailing has always disliked trouble.

"It is the opinion of the elders of the clan, and even the gentlemen have agreed."

"And with the same knowledge, there is no high or low, whether it is a poor family or a scholar, it should be treated equally."

Mei Huailing doesn't like it, this is not something he can change, why should he discuss it?

Seeing Mei Huailing frowning, Mei Congjia, "Before you went down the mountain, what happened to what I told you, did you see that girl?" ”

"Who?"

"The woman with a bracelet like you."

Mei Congjia took out the jade pendant from her sleeve, "Or don't you?" ”

The jade pendant in Mei Congjia's hand is carved with a plum blooming in cold snow on the front, and a large plum character is carved on the back. And this jade, the jade body is white, and only the position of Namei is red.

It is not so much the red jade pattern as the red inlaid jade that blooms with the brilliance of the glass.

Mei Huailing's eyes fell on the jade pendant, "This jade pendant was left to you by your mother." ”

"It's a family affair set for you and the four girls of the Gu family."

Mei Congjia didn't care, and put the jade pendant on the table, "But Gu Qiyu has long been dead, that is, she is immortal, and my relationship with her is just a verbal joke agreed by my mother." ”

"Then why me?"

How could Mei Huailing, the second son of the Mei Family Academy, be so idle that he went to the Gu family to replace an old master in the clan class?

"Moreover, the family affair set by my mother back then was you and Gu Qiyu, that is, Gu Qiyu is dead, and it is not my turn to be with the juniors of the Gu family."

This generation is not right, it is the same age, but Mei Huailing and Gu Wanniang are inferior in the end.

Mei Congjia chuckled, looking at Mei Huailing, who had always disliked the nobles of Chang'an City, and did not have the same resistance as before when he sounded like the Gu family. "But the age is not bad, I can't do it with Gu Qiyu, but there is no such thing."

Although Mei Huailing is Mei Congjia's younger brother, Mei Huailing is the old son of Mrs. Mei back then.

There is a sixteen-year-old gap between Mei Huailing and Mei Congjia, which means that the eldest brother is like a father, and here in Mei Congjia, it is the most suitable.

"This family affair was set by my mother and the ancestors of the Gu family, this jade pendant, I didn't take it back then, but now it's for you."

Mei Huailing still didn't take it, the parents' orders, the words of the matchmaker, in his place, are all not good.

"Don't say it's something you said, even if my father and mother came to me, I won't agree."

"You didn't take it back then, and I naturally won't take it now."

After Mei Huailing frowned, she remembered Gu Wanniang who was always in a daze in the school, and there were always some strange emotions in her eyes, which always made Mei Huailing feel strange. Why does a woman who is not too close have so many things on her mind, and she still has to be pressed in the bottom of her heart, and she doesn't dare to let people find out.

Although Mei Huailing went to the Gu family's ethnography was made by Mei Congjia, Mei Huailing did go to Chang'an City for important matters.

Mei Huailing went to the Gu Mansion at first, thinking that Mei Congjia and Gu Lao Taijun were talking about the concubine of the Gu family's big house, but later found that the red jade bracelet was taken to a daughter of the Gu family's third room.

"Do you know, who did the Gu family give that jade pendant?"

Mei Congjia, "Are you dissatisfied?" ”

Mei Congjia followed Mei Huailing's words, and only asked Mei Huailing who he was thinking.

Mei Huailing reacted back, this Mei Congjia was holding his words. Mei Huailing reacted back, "It's the same for everyone, I don't like it." ”

"That's a pity."

Mei Congjia pretended to regret, "Since this is the case, Chang'an City has not been peaceful recently, and the academy is also full of miscellaneous affairs, so you don't have to go to Chang'an City, just study quietly in the academy." ”
