After returning from Muhua Temple, Meng Nanjun didn't care too much about this matter, after all, in her opinion, even if Jingming could find a backer for her who could compete with the Gu family, it would take a lot of work.

Who would have expected that this matter was completely unexpected by her, and it was only half a day, and Jingming directly found Shen Fu.

"The donor's previous conditions have been agreed, and he said that people will come to protect the donor's safety, and the donor can rest assured."

Meng Nanjun naturally didn't expect him to be so fast, and while looking at him with raised eyebrows, he asked, "I don't know who the backer you found for me is." ”

Jingming originally looked like he was smiling, but when he heard her ask, there was a little hesitation on his face. Meng Nanjun saw that he probably didn't reveal too much, so he could only say: "I can't believe what you say, tell me the identity of that person, and I can see how far I can let go of my hands and feet." ”

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that this is indeed the reason, Jingming had to tell the truth, "Donor, relax that this is the Queen Mother, and she is definitely not afraid of offending the Gu family or the Xu family." ”

Meng Nanjun couldn't help but be surprised after hearing this, he did think in advance that he could make Jingming say so confident, this person's identity should not be simple. But if it's a courtier or a person from the rivers and lakes, it's just that, once the royal family is involved, it makes this matter even more unfathomable.

You must know that from the beginning, what she thought was that Zhou Xu used this chance on Liu Yunqi, but now it is the death of the eldest lady of the Xu family, and it is the second aunt of the Gu family, the Li family, who used Gu worms, and now even the queen mother has taken this matter seriously. Meng Nanjun couldn't help but wonder if he could do it.

But it was about Liu Yunqi, and she had to take care of it, so in the end she could only agree with anxiety.

"The person arranged by the Queen Mother will come over tonight, and Xiaosheng will go back first." After speaking, he bowed to her slightly, and Meng Nanjun didn't stop him, but only let Lishu send people out.

"The maid pondered that this matter is not something we can manage, why did the young lady agree so easily?" Sending people back from outside, Lishu couldn't help but ask.

Meng Nanjun could only let out a long sigh, "Who made Yun Qi be promised Gu that week, and now he listens to him everywhere?" If I hadn't had so many years of friendship, I wouldn't have cared about her, but after saying so many good things and bad things, she didn't have the slightest sobriety, so I could only manage it to the end. ”

Lishu also let out a long sigh when he heard this, and didn't ask anything more about it.

It didn't take long for Song Hanshuang, who went out to inquire about things, to come back, and seeing that his face was not very good, Meng Nanjun guessed most of it, but he still asked how things were.

However, Song Hanshuang shook his head, "The Gu family said that they had already looked at the body of Dingnanhou, and now they are preparing to bury it." ”

Meng Nanjun was slightly stunned, and didn't know what to say for a while.

Obviously I didn't know each other, but I had heard too many rumors about him, Meng Nanjun admitted that some of the things he had said in public were to take advantage of the situation, but after hearing about this incident, he still couldn't help but have a sour nose.

I feel sorry for him, and I have to sigh that I am jealous of talent.

"Alright, you go get something to eat first, and rest early in the evening." Meng Nanjun said.

Song Hanshuang went out, leaving her and Lishu, the closer master and servant, in the house.

"Miss, but you are sad because of the death of Dingnanhou?" Lishu had been with her for so long, so she naturally understood that she was not very happy at this time, so she asked.

Meng Nanjun buried his face in the crook of his arm, and did not speak at first, but after a while, he still said: "There are so many wicked people in this world who are still alive, why are you doing why good people are suffering?" ”

Obviously, he asked in advance, but Lishu didn't know how to persuade her at this time, so he could only say one sentence for a while: "The scourge will be left for a thousand years." ”

At this point, the two did not communicate again, but these words made the person standing outside slightly stunned, and then with a little smile on his face, he knocked on the door gently.

Meng Nanjun thought it was Song Hanshuang coming back at first, and she didn't care, but it didn't take long for her to remember what Jingming had told her before, and she quickly straightened up, which made Lishu, who went to open the door, feel a little inexplicable.

But when the door opened and a masked man appeared, her face turned strange.

The man didn't speak, just glanced at her with those cold eyes, and Lishu could have taken a step back, but he also understood what she meant.

It's to let yourself stop leaking.

"Are you ......" Meng Nanjun felt familiar when he saw him, and after thinking for a long time, he finally remembered that it was the person who saved him that day.

The man smiled at her, "The Queen Mother asked me to come over and escort her, I wonder if you are still satisfied?" ”

At first, when she heard that someone came to help her, Meng Nanjun didn't pay attention to it at all, after all, in her opinion, there were not many people who could deal with ghosts and gods, and their Meng family was a rarity.

But the person in front of him rescued her from the hands of the ghost, and his ability is estimated to be much higher than her.

Thinking clearly in his heart, Meng Nanjun smiled on his face, first beckoned him to sit, and then instructed Lishu to prepare tea.

Lishu looked at him with a courteous look and wanted to stop talking, but there was nothing wrong with thinking about it carefully, so he simply went out without saying a word.

"I don't know the name of the child?" Meng Nanjun was a little restrained in front of her.

The man was not as restrained as her, and peeled an orange casually, as if he had regarded it as his own home, "Just call me to be cautious." ”

Meng Nanjun saw that he didn't even say his surname, and he didn't mean to ask, so he nodded. "Do you know my name, then?"

"I'm afraid that no one in this imperial capital knows the name of Madame."

A "lady" was bitten a little harder by him, a little more deliberate, and it also made Meng Nanjun a little embarrassed for no reason. She glanced up and down with some disgust, and she didn't have the idea of flattering her before.

But you still have to get by on the face, after all, your future safety still depends on the person in front of you.

Meng Nanjun, who knew this well, maintained a decent smile on her face, and when Lishu came back, she took the teapot in her hand and poured him a cup herself.

Gu Xiao looked at the tea that was still steaming in front of him, and the corners of his mouth slightly hooked up an evil smile, Meng Nanjun secretly said in his heart that it was not good, and sure enough, when he raised his eyes, he opened his mouth and said, "It's not good to drink tea at night."

"What does the boy want to drink?"

Hearing her ask, Gu Xiao really thought about it carefully, and then said: "It's better to have some wine, after all, it is a good thing to help you sleep, and there should be something hidden in Madame's house." ”

There is really a collection of wine in Meng's mansion, but those are all Master Meng's private collections, and she has stolen a few jars to drink, but the people in front of her are not familiar with it, and she just excused herself, saying that there is no good wine at home.

Unexpectedly, Gu Xiao didn't give up, squinted his eyes and looked at her casually, and his tone was a little more meaningful. "I have a habit of not having good wine at night, and I can't lift my spirits the next day, so Madame should have something to do tomorrow......"

He paused in the middle of speaking, but how could Meng Nanjun not hear it? scolded him several times in his heart, but on the surface, he still had to compromise.

"There should be some wine cellars at home, if the son doesn't dislike it, come with me."

Meng Nanjun said that he would go out first, and the smile on his face cracked.

Master Meng is a good wine person, and the cellar at home also covers a lot of land, Meng Nanjun is still young and ignorant and wants to taste the taste of wine before he went there, who knows that after so many years, the wine in the cellar has not decreased but increased, and now it has reached the point where she is dumbfounded.

"That's what Madame said about no good wine?" Gu Xiao turned around with interest and asked.

Meng Nanjun really didn't control his expression, and went over directly with a blank eye.

"The Meng family has a big business, and their knowledge is naturally very broad, so this wine is nothing."

Knowing that she was not going to lie before, Gu Xiao was a little funny in his heart, and he was more interested in this wife who was forced to stuff himself, so he touched his chin and opened his mouth to laugh.

"Since it's nothing, I'll solve these things for my wife, and it can be regarded as sharing."

So saying, the man walked in.

Meng Nanjun can be regarded as lifting a stone and shooting himself in the foot, he can't say anything about his suffering, so he can only leave angrily. But halfway through, I really couldn't bear those good wines, and shouted inside.

"You can do it in moderation, but don't go too far."

The corners of Gu Xiao's lips, who were picking wine inside, were slightly hooked, originally he had found a medium jar, but when he heard this, he turned his hand and directly changed two jars of high-grade wine.

When he came out with the wine, Meng Nanjun's eyes were a little red, you must know that these were what Master Meng had treasured and was reluctant to drink.

"For the rest, it's okay for you to change the four altars or five altars, in short, you can't touch this." Meng Nanjun stood in front of him.

Gu Xiao just hooked his lips and smiled, and after a while, his figure turned into nothingness, and he couldn't find a trace in the same place.

Meng Nanjun was stunned for a moment, in addition to finding that he was treacherous, he was more of a pity for the two jars of wine.

So she spared the entire mansion and searched for it, trying to persuade him again, but she didn't know that her every move fell into Gu Xiao's eyes, along with the stubbornness that held back her tears later.

Gu Xiao glanced at the wine jar in his hand that was about to bottom out, and he really didn't know why she was so rare.

After all, as she said, the Meng family has a big business, and it is not possible to shed tears for these two jars of wine.

But his doubts were only for a moment, and when Lishu came over and saw her sitting on a stone bench on the side, he asked worriedly: "What is Miss doing here at night?" ”

"You said that if my father came back and found that his wine was missing two jars, would he be in a hurry with me?"

Hearing Meng Nanjun's question, Lishu knew that she must be thinking about her father, so she sighed lightly and comforted: "What are two jars of wine?" If you buy it in the future, the master will definitely not blame the young lady. ”

"That's what I said," Meng Nanjun rubbed his eyes, and there was already some crying in his tone, "It's clear that they didn't say goodbye, and if they really want to take care of it, I'm also reasonable." ”
