A small door, the kitchen inside the door is fragrant with rice, the sweet and glutinous voice of the woman, and the soft and cute words of the child. The low Northland hut is peaceful and warm. Outside the door, it was windy and snowy.

Meng Xuan stopped, stopped Qiu Ming's mouth opening, listened carefully for a moment, and couldn't help laughing. Laughing and laughing, I couldn't stop laughing. At this moment, Meng Xuan suddenly didn't want to go in. He suddenly found that wind and snow were more suitable for him.

However, the body can't help itself.

Zhou's mother cleaned up the east chamber and found that there were strangers in the yard, so she immediately exclaimed, babbling in pieces: "I said it early in the morning, how can the yard not build a wall?" What can I do with all that wood? ”

Zheng Zhi came out when he heard the voice, and Yu Niang stopped what she was doing and opened the door. Under the wind and snow, Meng Xuan's originally handsome face, stubble and haggard ensemble played a song, named "I'm Not Bad".

"It's a coincidence that Uncle Eleven came, we only came back today. Come on, it's cold outside, come in quickly. Yao'er's pregnancy is not good, and she is very guilty. She must ask Qiqi, and be careful when you speak. As if they had never been separated, Zheng Zhi skillfully pulled people into the house. Before the door was closed, Zheng Zhi instructed Zhou's mother, "Clean up the West Chamber, and then carry my quilt." ”

Gu Yao heard the movement, so he got up, before the kang got down, Zheng Zhi had returned, and shouted urgently: "You lie down." ”

Meng Xuan also saw Gu Yao.

The face is yellow and thin, and the originally fair and ruddy cheeks are only white and miserable at this time. The blue shadow under the eye socket is more obvious against the background of this pure white. Meng Xuan's throat tightened, and he stepped forward and patted Gu Yao's head, just like a small animal, just like a Qiqi. When everyone was stunned, they only heard him whisper: "Don't worry, it's okay." ”

When Gu Yao was recognized as a granddaughter by the Meng family, Meng Xuan also liked to shoot her like this. Later, Meng Shan said it twice, and Meng Xuan knew that her niece, whether she was close or recognized, could not treat her like this if she was over seven years old.

For this reason, the young Meng Xuan complained many times at midnight, complaining that the old man did not recognize his granddaughter early.

Gu Yao actually had some discomfort, but considering Meng Xuan's hard work, he was ashamed for a moment, and wanted to expose the matter, but Zheng Zhi disagreed. Zheng Zhi, who was still enthusiastic, after coming back to his senses, pushed Meng Xuan away and said unceremoniously: "Do you often bully my family Qiqi like this?" You just bully Qiqi, just stretch out your hand to my daughter-in-law, is it appropriate! ”

Meng Xuan was not wary, pushed three steps in a row, and relied on Qiu Ming's support to stand firm. After standing still, Meng Xuan didn't see the slightest embarrassment on his face, and said to Zheng Zhi: "Don't be so naïve." You raised my niece like this, I haven't cleaned you up yet, you dare to push me! Let's go, go outside, and settle the new accounts and old accounts together. ”

Fifty steps and a hundred steps, okay? Gu Yao knew that Zheng Zhi would not take Meng Xuan to make trouble outside, so he didn't care about it, but set his eyes on Qiu Ming.

Ten years have passed, and there seems to be little change in Qiu Ming. The same countenance, the same reserve. He didn't want to enter the house, just now something happened suddenly, and he just entered the house. Since he entered the house, he had to give Gu Yao a salute.

"Qiu Ming has seen Miss Gu."

Zheng Zhi, who was still arguing with Meng Xuan, came back in a hurry: "What Miss Gu, now it's my daughter-in-law, don't you see her belly and those two stinky boys?" ”

Qiu Ming secretly glanced at Gu Yao's stomach, and then blushed.

Gu Yao saw that he was too cramped, so he changed the topic without a trace: "Are you also on the amnesty list?" ”

"Looking back on the girl-" Under Zheng Zhi's cold gaze, Qiu Ming paused slightly and changed his words, "Back to my aunt and grandmother, the little Huang Ce's household registration is in Fengcheng." Yes, it is not on the amnesty list, nor is it on the list of slaves or guards of the Meng family. ”

Gu Yao smiled: "I see. Strangely, I think you look even better than Uncle Eleven. ”

Hearing this, Meng Xuan said: "Thanks to Qiu Ming's presence all the way, I didn't suffer much. Wait for me to sleep, clean up, and tomorrow I will be a young man again. ”

"Understand, you've all worked hard. Yu Niang, add two dishes. Make a potato beef for Uncle Eleven, and give Qiu Ming a chicken stew with mushrooms. The chickens eat the ones raised by the Chai River, and the mushrooms are picked in the mountains in the summer. No, you can boil some shredded pork porridge first. ”

Yu Niang raised her voice again: "Madam, don't worry, the porridge has been boiled, and the dishes will be made immediately." ”

Zheng Zhi led Meng Xuan to the wing room to freshen up first, and although he was not a teenager when he returned, he could already see it. The porridge had been boiled, and Gu Yao's mother and son sat on the kang, waiting for Zheng Zhi and Meng Xuan.

Gu Yao said: "The meal will take a while to eat, but the child and I are hungry, so I happened to drink porridge with Uncle Eleven first to cushion our stomachs." ”

The warm hot porridge can dispel the cold in the body, but it can't dispel the sadness in Meng Xuan's heart. He suddenly burst into tears, provoking Zheng Yu's question: "Mother, my uncle is the same as me, don't you like to eat this porridge?" Mother, although I don't like porridge either, I didn't cry, is it better than my uncle? ”

Under his son's expectant gaze, Gu Yao was very sure: "Yes, you are stronger than your uncle!" ”

Meng Xuan held back her tears and looked at Gu Yao: "Don't teach children at will!" ”

Gu Yao smiled and excited: "Then don't cry." Uncle Eleven, you don't have to worry so much, I have already sent two letters out. One letter was given to Sister Song, and her husband was Rongcheng Zhixian, and I asked her to find ten people to chase after Grandmother Meng; I also wrote a letter to Sister Yao, asking her to send a batch of daily necessities to Yunnan to ensure your daily life; is writing a letter to Sister Tang, asking her maternal brother or nephew, in short, to send the two of them to Yunnan to take care of the children. Uncle Eleventh knows that Uncle Tang has an old relationship with his grandfather, and he will definitely not die at this time. ”

At this moment, on the way south of the Meng family, the ten people given by Song Haitang were the ten people from the imperial court and Song Haitang. The original task of these ten people was to escort the Meng family to the capital, stay in the capital, and have Meng Shan's former apprentice take over the next part of the journey. I don't know that some people are wise enough to protect themselves and refuse to show their heads. Ten people had no choice but to move on. It wasn't until he entered the ground in Suzhou that the Tang family took over.

From the capital to Suzhou, the distribution team is much larger.

The entourage of the Meng family here is extremely eye-catching. In the case of money opening the way, many people are greedy, but they are helpless. None of the problems that can be solved with money are problems, the problem is that there is no money.

Yao Feifei threw the baby to her in-laws and went south with her husband. Sending the Meng family is a way, mainly because I want to do business in the north and south. On this day, I heard a sentence from the women of the Meng family: "What is this!" She had a lot of benefits from the Meng family back then, how much more is this? ”

Mrs. Meng's eyes sharpened, and she angrily reprimanded the woman: "Brother Hui's daughter-in-law, didn't your mother's family get the benefits of the Meng family, and how many did you pay back?" ”

The woman was stunned at first, and then stood up again, and said, "I came into the door with a lot of dowry, and I also gave birth to two sons to the Meng family, isn't this benefit enough!" ”

Yao Feifei sneered, walked out, walked towards the woman, and said, "Then how much money did you spend on the Meng family?" I might as well tell you, just this way, not only for you to eat and drink, but also to beat some jailers, I have already spent three thousand taels. Your Meng family gave Gu five or three thousand taels of silver, or even more? ”

Wang, the wife of the former Baoding Hou and Meng Ying, said even more politely: "You'd better be honest." It was your own house that caused it, but you made amends for the whole family. The tribe is very tolerant of you, and not only does not leave you, but also takes care of you. This is the two of us are kind, you guys, don't get an inch! ”
