Chapter Ninety-Five: Zhang Peony is dead

Liu Meiniang sent Xue Wuyi to the living room and went to work, and asked Zhang Jihan to accompany her in the living room, and Zhang Peony naturally followed.

She didn't dare to pounce on Xue Wuyi now, because Xue Wuyi's eyes were cold when she looked at her before, and Zhang Peony felt palpitations when she thought about it now. had no choice but to sit on another chair and look at Xue Wuyi stupidly.

has been staring at a glance, Xue Wuyi is not a vegetative person, of course he has feelings, so Xue Wuyi sat in the living room for a while, then got up and began to admire the decoration in the house.

The first thing that catches your eye is a picture of the "Eight Horses" hanging in the center of the living room. The eight horses are vivid on the paper, and even their demeanor is full of charm. Xue Wuyi thinks that he can handle calligraphy and painting. There are not a few famous paintings and calligraphy that I have seen since I was a child, and it is the first time I have seen such a picture of eight horses.

"Ji Han, who painted this painting?" Xue Wuyi asked.

"Oh, this was bought by my sister-in-law from the town, and I don't know who painted it." Zhang Jihan explained.

He remembered that this painting suddenly appeared in the living room, and Liu Meiniang hung it up, and when he asked, Liu Meiniang vaguely said that it was a painting bought in the town, and of course he didn't suspect anything.

The reason why Liu Meiniang said this is because this picture of the eight horses is not original to her. It was she who copied Mr. Xu. But after all, she just decorated her own home, and she didn't sell it, so Liu Meiniang painted it and hung it in the living room.

Xue Wuyi's brows furrowed tightly after listening to Zhang Jihan's words, there is nothing on this painting, how can it be a bought painting, but if it is not a purchased painting, who painted it?

Xue Wuyi fell into deep thought.

When he saw the words hanging on the wall again, Xue Wuyi was even more surprised.

"The most important thing is that the world can't stay, and the face is a flowery tree." Xue Wuyi muttered the words on the wall.

"Good words, good poems." Xue Wuyi slapped his fan and said sincerely.

"The word?"

"This was written by my sister-in-law." Hearing others praise Liu Meiniang, Zhang Jihan seemed to be honored. I was very happy to say.

After listening to Zhang Jihan's words, Xue Wuyi's heart set off even more turbulent waves.

This word is quite stylish, Xue Wuyi originally thought that it was written by a hidden old gentleman, but he didn't expect it to be Liu Meiniang.

"Is it really Mei Niang's writing?" Xue Wuyi asked again.

"Yes, I looked at what my sister-in-law wrote." Zhang Jihan nodded affirmatively.

Xue Wuyi could see that the words on the wall were deliberately covering up the edge, but they couldn't hide the profound skills of the writer, and Xue Wuyi thought that he couldn't write such words.

As everyone knows, Liu Meiniang's previous life is the best ability to get her hands on her words, since the age of four began to learn to hold the pen, how old she lived, how many years of writing calligraphy, listen to Liu Meiniang's mother said, in the full year banquet to catch Zhou, Liu Meiniang grabbed a brush.

Liu Meiniang's words have always followed Wang Xizhi's copybook, so the words written have an uninhibited and debauched demeanor, and many teachers including classmates before also said that Liu Meiniang's writing is not like a girl's writing at all, and it looks like a man's font.

Liu Meiniang didn't think there was anything wrong, the words were like them, as long as the words were written beautifully.

"It seems that I still underestimate Mei Niang." Xue Wuyi's eyes were dim. glanced at the eight horses on the wall again, was this eight horses really bought?

"What about these ones?" Xue Wuyi turned his head and saw a few pairs of words on the wall on the other side, these words were not the same as what Liu Meiniang wrote, they looked very jerky, and they couldn't even be called upright.

"These three were written by our brother and sister, and I said that I would not hang here, but my sister-in-law insisted on hanging here." Zhang Jihan scratched his head as he spoke, looking very embarrassed.

"You can also write?" Xue Wuyi asked with interest.

"My sister-in-law is teaching us and is learning." Zhang Jihan said modestly.

"It's very well written." Xue Wuyi encouraged, listening to the meaning of Zhang Jihan's words, they have not been learning to write for a long time, and it is already very good to be able to write like this, but Xue Wuyi is more concerned that Liu Meiniang taught a few people to read, no wonder Liu Meiniang used the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone sent by Pothos before Liu Meiniang used it so quickly, and the little girl said that Liu Meiniang bought pen and ink by herself again. If that's the case, it makes sense.

Xue Wuyi turned around and finished reading all the calligraphy and paintings hanging in the living room.

Zhang Peony on the side was very anxious, Xue Wuyi had been looking at the calligraphy and paintings on the wall since she entered the living room, she didn't understand anything, and she couldn't insert a word.

She couldn't read, she couldn't tell if the handwriting was good or bad, she only knew that the horse was not bad.

What if Liu Meiniang can write? What's the use of a widow in a rural village whose husband has died and can write?

She believes that Xue Wuyi will not be such a superficial person, she is much better than Liu Meiniang.

"Xue Gongzi likes this calligraphy and painting?" Zhang Peony saw the stitches and inserted the needle at noon?

"Hmm." Xue Wuyi said lightly, obviously not wanting to have anything to do with Zhang Peony.

"Peony also thinks that this calligraphy and painting are very good, but I didn't expect my cousin-in-law to be able to write, I guess my cousin taught it when he was alive." Zhang Mudan deliberately bit the four words of his cousin's life very hard, as if reminding Xue Wuyi of something.

Xue Wuyi frowned in disgust. did not answer Zhang Peony's words.

Zhang Mudan was speechless when he saw it, and he was anxious and didn't know why.

"Mei Niang, what are you going to do?" Xue Wuyi happened to see Liu Meiniang who was carrying a basket and was about to go out.

"I'll go to the mountains to pick some vegetables, Ji Han, you just come with me, and go catch two fish by the way." Liu Meiniang said.

"I'll go with you." Zhang Jihan hadn't answered yet, and Xue Wuyi had already taken the lead in raising his feet and going out.

"It's hard to walk on the mountain, why don't you just stay at home?" Liu Meiniang looked at Xue Wuyi and said hesitantly.

Today, Xue Wuyi of Sao Bao is wearing a white brocade robe, and the whole person is as warm as jade, no wonder Zhang Peony's eyes have never left.

"Mei Niang, this is underestimating me." Xue Wuyi raised his head confidently.

Liu Meiniang smiled and said no more.

"Sister-in-law, I'll go with you too. I'm going to help you. Although Zhang Mudan hated Xue Wuyi's attitude towards Liu Meiniang, she was unwilling to give up any chance to get along with Xue Wuyi.

"Okay." Liu Meiniang shrugged her shoulders indifferently. Go as you want.

The group went to the mountain in a mighty way.

After arriving at the mountain, Liu Meiniang began to pick vegetables, Zhang Dandan ran around on the side, and kept helping, Zhang Jihan took a fish basket and went to catch fish.

"Mei Niang, what is this?" Xue Wuyi's observation is indeed strong, and as soon as he came up, he saw the seedlings of potatoes. Xue Wuyi traveled north and south, and he knew a lot of things, he clearly saw that it was the leaves of the stone fruit, what did Liu Meiniang do when he planted the stone fruit?

"You don't know Shiguo?" Liu Meiniang replied without replying.

"What are you doing with stone fruits?" Xue Wuyi asked puzzled.

"Eat." Liu Meiniang straightened up and replied. This time it was Xue Wuyi's turn to be stunned.

"Sister-in-law, you won't be so ignorant, the stone fruit is poisonous and can't be eaten, it will eat the dead, you still grow so many stone fruits, you ......" Zhang Peony pretended to look at Liu Meiniang in horror, Liu Meiniang didn't bother to roll her eyes, just because of a Xue Wuyi, Zhang Peony regarded her as an imaginary enemy everywhere, and she was wronged.

"Mei Niang?" Xue Wuyi seemed to be waiting for Liu Meiniang's answer.

"The stone fruit can indeed be eaten, we have tried it, as for the stone fruit eating the dead, as long as you don't eat the sprouted stone fruit, you won't be poisoned." Liu Meiniang explained.

"Really?" Xue Wuyi raised his eyebrows and asked.

"Is it any good for me to lie to you?" Liu Meiniang snorted lightly, and the words she said choked Xue Wuyi.

Xue Wuyi was stunned for a while, and then became very happy.

Because Xue Wuyi found that when Liu Meiniang and Zhang Jihan were together, they often choked Zhang Jihan from time to time, this is not that Liu Meiniang doesn't like Zhang Jihan, on the contrary, because Zhang Jihan is Liu Meiniang's younger brother, Liu Meiniang likes Zhang Jihan very much, so she will communicate with Zhang Jihan in this way, but Liu Meiniang has always been very polite when she communicates with him.

Liu Meiniang also choked him just now, which shows that Liu Meiniang now regards him as a friend from the bottom of her heart.

"If that's the case, won't everyone have one more kind of food?" Xue Wuyi's mind turned quickly, and he thought of it all at once.

"Sister-in-law, don't talk nonsense. Deceive Xue Gongzi, I have grown so big, and I have never heard of stone fruits that can be eaten. If only you could eat it. The people in the village have already eaten it, can they wait until this happens? It must be because the stone fruit is poisonous. Zhang Mudan had to go against Liu Meiniang.

"We've all eaten it, and the stone fruit made by my sister-in-law is delicious." Zhang Dandan retorted with his hands on his hips.

Zhang Peony is speechless now.

"The dish is ready. Let's go to the fishpond. Liu Meiniang got up with the basket and said.

"Good. I'll help you carry the basket. Xue Wuyi took the initiative to step forward and take the vegetable basket in Liu Meiniang's hand.

Liu Meiniang handed the vegetable basket to Xue Wuyi, and she didn't feel anything wrong. Because in the concept of modern people, men still have to shoulder more, especially when they are outside, it is a gentleman's performance for boys to help girls carry things.

The two walked side by side, Zhang Dandan inserted between the two from behind, Zhang Peony looked from behind, as if he was a family of three, and jealousy made Zhang Peony's face distorted.

When the ingredients were almost done, several people went down the mountain, Liu Meiniang wanted to cook, Xue Wuyi sat directly in the kitchen casually, and threatened to help Liu Meiniang.

Liu Meiniang was also not polite, and directly threw a few cloves of garlic to Xue Wuyi for Xue Wuyi to peel off.

Xue Wuyi's face distorted slightly, and he returned to normal again.

Liu Meiniang and Zhang Li cooked for the two of them, and after a while, they were all done with their hands and feet.

The staple food is rice, Liu Meiniang burned two fish, fried pork belly, and made steamed crabs. Nearly 10 dishes, including scrambled eggs with leeks and mapo tofu, filled the entire table.

"Thank you, aunt, thank you Mei Niang." Xue Wuyi smelled the vegetables, the gluttony had been aroused, he has always been a person who pursues quality of life, especially when it comes to eating.

Liu Meiniang's cooking can be said to be the most delicious he has eaten over the years.

"Taste it and see if it suits your appetite." Liu Meiniang urged.

Xue Wuyi tasted each dish first under the gaze of everyone.

Sure enough, it tasted very good.

A happy meal.
