Chapter XI

011

It may be that this period of time is too focused on historical stories, Tao Li's other research task of reclamation and farming, and when Mei Junxing gave her a small hoe, there was no specific implementation, Mei Junxing watched Tao Li read carefully, and was relieved not to care about spending energy to make hoes and shovels and various utensils.

On this day, when Tao Li was still studying history, she suddenly heard a knock on the door outside, and at first she was stupid for a while, and wondered what kind of sound it was. It's no wonder, these days in the Mei Jun connoisseurship, the Mei family has almost, no, there are no guests at all, not even a series of doors!

"You are?" Opening the door, Tao Li saw an aunt carrying a basket and an envelope in her hand. Unexpectedly, the aunt was like being frightened when she saw her.

"Uh...... Is there something you can do? ”

"Oh, oh...... I'm here to deliver this. As she spoke, the aunt handed the envelope to Tao Li.

Tao Li took the letter and was about to close the door, but the aunt pulled Tao Li with a mysterious look. "Girl, you, where do you live?"

"Well, I'm from a foreign country to join my eldest brother!" As a modern young man, Tao Li, who knows that gossip kills people, decisively clarified the "facts".

"Ah, I see, but your eldest brother's situation, you are having a hard time now, right?"

What's the matter with you? Tao Li was annoyed, but it was rare for someone to talk to him like this here, so Tao Li simply moved the small bench out to chat with his aunt for a while.

However, as the old saying goes, ginger is still old and spicy! In just a quarter of an hour, Tao Li put his age, preferences, ancestral hometown, and cultural knowledge level, and even he didn't know the eight characters.

Of course, most of the answers were answered by Tao Li "looking almost made up".

"Although I think the Mei family was also a famous family at the beginning, it's a pity that it can't be done now, you, now why don't you find a better in-law while you are young and beautiful, and ...... in the future."

Tao Li listened to the words with regret, and realized that there were three points of philistine, three points of superiority that did not know where it came from, and how did the word three points come from...... Falling into the well, no, no, it's schadenfreude! There is also a bit of meanness. Suddenly, I also felt a bright red flowing from my veins, something that modern times call blood.

"I said, this aunt, do you mean to look down on my brother?" Tao Li remembered the old boy he had experienced, non-mainstream, etc., and raised his calf to step on his small bench.

"I didn't mean that, this girl is really ......" The aunt explained with a smile, raised her eyes and saw Mei Junxing walking over here, and hurriedly greeted "Oh, Junxing, it just so happened that you came, I sent you a letter, it seems to be from the Tao family." ”

After the aunt finished speaking, she left in a hurry, but Tao Li, who was already complacent about her own deterrence, sighed in her heart after hearing the words Tao family, and secretly exclaimed, not good......

It's just that at this time, the letter that was originally in Tao Li's hands has been taken away by Mei Junxing.

"Aunt Jiang walks slowly." Mei Junxing saw Aunt Jiang leave, bowed and saw her off.

"You still say hello to her, do you know that she laughed at you just now!"

"It's just human nature." Mei Junxing took the letter, although he was far away just now, he was still fortunate to hear Tao Li's words to defend himself, "You don't have to care so much." ”

"Oh, you're so good, I'm telling you it's not good to have a good temper, of course, but to outsiders...... Do you know that there is a saying that horses are good at being ridden by people, and people are good at being bullied? ”

Hearing Tao Li's advice, Mei Junxing also thought about it seriously, and then shook his head at Tao Li, "I don't know." ”

Tao Li scratched his head angrily, and looked at Mei Junxing's back with a burst of hatred, "Is that the point?" Yes? Is that the point? ”

However, Mei Junxing just shook his hand, looking unimpressed.

Seeing this, Tao Li followed with a worried look about the country and the people, but his eyes inadvertently glanced at the envelope in Mei Junxing's hand.

She really wanted to know what was written in it, but even in the next time, Tao Li's approach to Mei Junxing in various ways was skillfully resolved by Mei Junxing.

It wasn't until she was politely invited out of someone's room that Tao Li reluctantly gave up the espionage operation, but if she didn't know, she didn't know, she didn't believe that the Tao family could still send her photos to the letter, according to her understanding of the Tao family, no, it was the eldest lady's understanding, it was estimated that the Tao family was sorry for the loss of someone, and would try her best to make up for it.

Tao Li also has his own reason for thinking so, the first Tao family dislikes the Mei family is poor, in fact, this in-law is not of much significance, but the ancients love face, do a heavy commitment look, second, she Tao Li, or the original Tao Yi, in the Tao family I don't know if it is an illegitimate child or what, anyway, it is not treated, lost, hehe, it is lost.

Tao Li analyzed it but didn't worry much about himself, and began to sympathize with Mei Junxing, who should be reading the letter in the house at this time, obviously a good young man with excellent character and learning, in the current society, what is it called, potential stocks! As a result, I now have to accept the fate of this kind of daughter-in-law who runs away.

Although, his daughter-in-law seems to be himself. Uh, no, it's a dead Tao Yi.

Inside the house, Mei Junxing held the letter in his hand, muttered for a long time, and sighed, not knowing whether it was worry or relief, or both.

Although Tao Li guessed the Tao family's thoughts before, it was seven or eight times out of ten, but in addition, another thing that the Tao family vaguely mentioned in the letter made Mei Junxing more worried than Tao Wei.

"There are many people who have heard about good things in the city recently, but something has happened?"

Mei Junxing frowned, he didn't notice that there were a lot of unfamiliar faces in Michuan recently. It's just that most of those people are associated with the merchants in the city, and he didn't want to care. Although Mei Junxing does not have any real dealings with the Tao family all year round, his occasional work in the Qingguan and his own deliberate attention are enough to understand the outside world, such as the disappearance of the prince, such as the arrival of the generals, such as the ranking of the four sons and ladies in the world, such as the head of the Tao family in Xixi said that he had no intention of treasure......

People always like to hide some of their dark natures, such as greed.

So when Mei Junxing saw the "thing" in the letter, he didn't hesitate to think of the legendary treasure.

Not to mention......

Mei Junxing pushed open the door and saw Tao Li sitting in front of his door, looking at her speculatively looking at herself, Mei Junxing stared at her for a while, and after Tao Li began to feel weak, Mei Junxing finally spoke, "Do you want to go to the Qingguan with me to play?" ”

Although Tao Li is like hearing Mei Junxing say, "Do you want to go to the kiln with me to play", but compared to Mei Mansion, who doesn't know how long he will stay inside, Tao Li is still more willing to go out. So he responded to Mei Junxing's own outgoing with a continuous nod

Expect.

Mei Junxing really didn't break his promise, and took Tao Li out the next day, but Mei Junxing didn't expect Tao Li to have such great expectations for this outing, so he got up early for the first time, and even washed his clothes, changed into a cyan dress, and carried the things that Tao Li claimed to be a backpack that she had cut out for a day.

"Mei Junxing, when are we leaving?"

Mei Junxing smiled and said nothing, pulled Tao Li to the stool and sat down, and he went to the house to find a comb to come out.

"Usually you comb your braids at home, but it's better to coil your hair when you go out." Mei Junxing gently spread Tao Li's hair and helped her comb it.

"Mei Junxing, will you comb a woman's hair? I've found that you're so much, are you a genius? Tao Li was amazed, and she was jealous on the other hand, if she had such an IQ back then, she would definitely have been admitted to 985, become a big boss, marry a rich and handsome, and become a winner in life......

"When I was young, I had a younger sister who was very naughty and clingy to me, and always asked me to comb her hair." Mei Junxing explained.

"Do you really have a sister? What about her? Married? Tao Li asked curiously.

"Dead, sick and dead." Mei Junxing's answer was very plain, as if he was used to this kind of pain and parting, and he did not pause in the action of combing his hair.

Tao Li, who heard this, was speechless for a moment, and there was silence between the two for a while, Tao Li suddenly turned his head to face Mei Junxing, "That, I don't have any relatives anymore!" ”

Mei Junxing was taken aback by her and paused, "En...... Condolences. ”

"I don't mean that, I mean, we're the same, we can be ...... Close relatives. Tao Li's voice was quite loud, but the more he spoke, the quieter he became, he was really a little embarrassed, and he always felt a little sensational.

Mei Junxing watched Tao Li slowly lower his head but secretly turned his head sideways to peek at his face, unconsciously moved in his heart, looked at Tao Li for a long time, suddenly smiled, turned Tao Li's head around, and combed it to the end.

"Don't move, your bun is messed up."

"Why am I messing around?" Tao Li was stunned for a while, and suddenly had an idea, "Mei Junxing, were you moved by me, and you were shy and deliberately diverted the topic, oh, you are not honest~~"

Mei Junxing ignored her, and her fingers turned flexibly on Tao Li's head, turning decay into magic.

Although he replied, Mei Junxing had to admit that he did feel warm, and even felt that this girl sitting in the barren and slightly cool courtyard at this moment was like something precious, which made him cautious in his gestures.

"In this case, I am your relative, that, you have to work hard, earn money, and raise a good sister like me, such as eating meat for three meals a day......"

Mei Junxing smiled unabated, he thought about the way Tao Li often liked to speak, I just quietly watched you daydream or something.
