Zhong Yiqing was very worried, and regarded Mei Fangruo as the pearl of the night, holding it in his hand for fear of falling off, and holding it in his mouth for fear of melting, he came to her side with a frightened face, took the freshly brewed jasmine tea, handed it over, and said: "Fangruo, you must be tired, drink tea, and rest later." ”

Mei Fangruo gently supported his forehead and said, "I feel a little dizzy, you go out first, I'll stay alone for a while." ”

Zhong Yiqing nodded, agreed to every request from Mei Fangruo, and stood at the door with a relieved expression.

At this time, it was dark and he couldn't see his five fingers, but in the Yonghe Hall, Lu Xiyi faced the candlelight and sighed, "You said that I did this, did I help Fang Ruo or hurt Fang Ruo?" ”

"Don't you already have the answer? What are you still worried about? ”

Lu Xiyi turned to look at him and said, "At first, I heard her begging you to help her get out of the house at the door, so I thought, how can I help her escape smoothly?" What should I do after I escape?

At the moment, I arranged her to go to the restaurant, anyway, Mrs. and Dad don't know, you helped me open a new restaurant in Shilipo, Xiaoxue and they are all there, they should be able to take good care of Fangruo, I don't have to worry, how should I live in the future?

Do you have to be incognito for the rest of your life? Is that too unfair to her? ”

Zhong Yihan took a sip of wine, looked at her lightly and said, "Since such a decision has been made, we should expect what the consequences will be, in case one day, Zhong Yiqing still finds her, we can only obediently bring her back." ”

When Lu Xiyi heard this, although he heard this very ruthlessly, he had to say that it was also a consequence that must be taken into account, these days Mrs. Zhong has been observing Mei Fangruo, seeing that she wakes up every morning and dusk, and returns on time, and her attitude is much more docile and well-behaved than before, after watching the two daughters-in-law say goodbye, Mrs. Zhong looked at Master Zhong with a serious face on the side with a comfortable face.

"Look, master, now Fangruo is more docile and considerate than before, it seems that Qing'er is truly repentant."

Master Zhong made a straight face, and snorted unhappily: "This stinky boy only knows how to bully women, if he is disrespectful to Fang Ruo in the future, I will definitely beat him all over the ground to find teeth!" ”

Mrs. Zhong looked at him with a displeased face and said, "Master, what do you mean by this?" It's a common thing for husbands and wives to fight, it's just that outsiders don't publicize it, besides, family ugliness can't be publicized, master, don't be rash. ”

Master Zhong sprinkled his anger on Mrs. Zhong's body with a displeased face, and said with a look of hatred that iron is not made of steel: "Qing'er has become like this, and she is not all spoiled by you.

You have not restrained and disciplined your two children since childhood, you will only harm them, although you are not their biological mother, but you must also set an example, you cannot follow them in everything. After saying that, Master Zhong left with an unhappy face.

Mrs. Zhong had no choice but to knock out her teeth and put them in her stomach, staring at Master Zhong's back with a look of grievance and distress, didn't she do this to establish an image in the minds of the two children?

If they are too harsh, others must have something to say, if they are not harsh, the lord is not happy here, and it is really difficult for this housewife to do...

Lotus Garden.

Zhong Yiqing has been deliberately accompanying Mei Fangruo at home for the past few days, which can be regarded as a kind of excuse.

Even Mei Fangruo had to feed her when she drank soup and ate, and this courteous attitude made Mei Fangruo feel a little worried in her heart.

The more he was like this, the more terrifying he felt, Zhong Yiqing saw that she was halfway through eating, and she couldn't eat the garden soup anymore, so she put down the bowl and said, "Is it that the cook made you dissatisfied?" Or I'll do it for you with another person. ”

Mei Fangruo waved her hand, "It's not like this, I can't eat anymore, you are in the lotus garden every day, you don't go anywhere, how can you do this, if those people outside know, they still think I won't let you out." ”

Zhong Yiqing saw that she was worried about this matter, and smiled: "What's this, being able to accompany your own lady in the house every day, that's a blessing that ordinary people can't ask for, isn't it that the lady is annoying to me, and the person who walks around in front of you doesn't look like a man who stands up to the sky?" ”

Mei Fangruo didn't make a sound, and turned his head, "I kind of want to eat the sour plum from the good store, can you buy some back, there are not many in the house." ”

Zhong Yiqing smiled: "Okay! He was about to go out, when he suddenly turned his head again and said, "Aren't Xiu'er and Mingzhu still there?" You can let them buy it, and I'll stay with you in the house. ”

Mei Fangruo watched him stare at him like this for several days, as if she knew that she was going to go out, so she was strictly guarded, there was no way to contact Lu Xiyi at all, and in the past few days, he also deliberately did not let her have contact with Zhong Yihan and others, just to keep her under strict control.

"Xiu'er and Mingzhu helped me buy some rouge gouache and other things, before the two of us had a temper, a lot of jewelry was damaged, these days they helped me send the jewelry to my hometown in Yangzhou, to find the former craftsman to restore.

No one helped me buy those things, and I didn't want to reprimand those little girls in the courtyard, so you can help me buy them, I want to eat the plums you bought with your own hands. ”

When Zhong Yiqing heard this, he gently scratched the tip of her nose with a doting face and said, "Didn't you just say this earlier?" I thought you just wanted to eat a plum, you wait, I'll buy it for you now. ”

Zhong Yiqing left her with a relaxed smile, Mei Fangruo's fluttering heart gradually calmed down, fortunately he was not suspicious, and quickly came to the backyard, she and Lu Xiyi agreed to meet in the backyard at this time, and used the code as a scheme.

"Cuckoo ......"

Hearing someone imitating the cuckoo's call, Mei Fangruo was shocked, this should be Lu Xiyi.

Looking at the back, sure enough, she had already packed her bags and was waiting for her, Mei Fangruo tiptoed to her, "Xiaoxi, are these my luggage?" ”

She nodded and smiled: "Yes, haven't you brought back the things you had in Yonghetang before?" I'll help you clean it up, if Zhong Yiqing comes over to ask for someone, I'll say that I have already returned the things to you, as for where you are, the ghost will know. As he spoke, he took her to the back door, and whispered to her: "Before you go out, change into this linen coat, no one will recognize you, and after you go out, you will keep walking in the direction of Shilipo, my restaurant is there, and Xiaoxue will pick you up at that time." ”

"Xiaoxi, you have done so much for me, I am really touched, by the way, this is the last bit of ointment I have left, you rub it on your face, I believe the acne will be healed soon." Lu Xiyi took it, looked at her happily and said, "Thank you so much, I'm just missing this last bit of ointment." ”
