Meng's question made Lu Jiayue stunned.

... What can be between yourself and Qu Zhang?

She couldn't help but wonder if she asked Qu Zhang to help and invited Liang Hao to come over to meet Qu Ying, and the Meng family knew about it?

Seeing that she was stunned, Meng Shi was even more anxious: "You mean--- why did you give him the four treasures of the study, and why were you closer to him than others?" ”

Meng Shi asked like this, and Lu Jiayue understood.

It turned out that it had nothing to do with Liang Hao's matter, but it was Meng Shi who misunderstood that there was a transgression between her and Qu Zhang.

Lu Jiayue secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Why did my aunt say this, I have never been particularly close to the third brother. I also sent my brother and Brother Hua to the four treasures of the study, not just the third brother. ”

"But your brother and Brother Hua are different from Brother Zhang'er to you after all." Meng frowned and sighed.

Qu Song is a cousin and married, Qu Hua is only eight or nine years old, and he is still young. For Lu Jiayue, who is twenty years old, Qu Zhang, who is gentle and beautiful, is naturally different from Qu Song and Qu Hua.

But even if it is different, Lu Jiayue clearly understands in her heart that she has no love for Qu Zhang.

Lu Jiayue smiled briskly: "Although it is different, but in my heart, I only treat him as a brother, and he is the same as his brother..." ”

Meng Shi said: "It was this afternoon, Mama Zhang came to tell me that the mothers-in-law below have been a little restless these days, and when they investigated, they realized that they were all spreading some rumors about you and Brother Zhang, and it seems that Brother Rong was also involved." I didn't believe it, but Mama Zhang said, you did send something to Brother Zhang... Inevitably, I had doubts in my heart. ”

After a pause, he said: "Although Brother Zhang'er's child is good, but you also know that he is a concubine, and his father doesn't like to see him, let alone his mother-in-law, if anyone marries into the second room to be this daughter-in-law in the future, I'm afraid that life will be very sad. I really can't see his mother's temperament. ”

Lu Jiayue didn't want Meng to add trouble to this matter, so she gently snuggled into Meng Shi's arms, and said slowly word by word: "Aunt is worried about me, I naturally know the severity, but I also ask my aunt to believe me, I have dealings with the third brother, and there is no transgression, and I have no intention of male or female towards him, in my eyes, several young masters in this family are my brothers, naturally, my brother is the closest to me, and no one can compare." ”

Lu Jiayue's words were sincere, Meng Shi listened, and the big stone hanging high in his heart was put down, his brows were loosened, and he said with a smile on his chin: "That's good, I know that you are a good boy who knows etiquette and is sensible." ”

In her previous life, she and Qu Rong secretly made a lifelong decision, in fact, at that time, the Meng family had some clues, but she refused to admit it, and the Meng family had no other way.

Now that I think about it, I really regret it.

For the sake of a person who is not worthy, and let the person who really loves and cares about him be disappointed and sad.

Lu Jiayue leaned closely into Meng Shi's arms, her heart was full of apologies, and after a while, she said softly: "I am raised by my aunt's side, and I can't relieve my aunt's worries, how dare I act arbitrarily and let my aunt worry about me again." ”

Meng Shi gently stroked Lu Jiayue's sideburns and cheeks, "Good boy, even if you are polite and sensible, Brother Rong and Brother Zhang are at the age of marriage proposal, you still have less contact with them, so as not to inadvertently give birth to any thoughts, but it will affect your reputation--- I say this, can you understand?" ”

"Yes, I understand." Lu Jiayue responded gently.

The next morning, Meng asked Mama Zhang to call all the maids and wives in the courtyard of the long house to one place and admonished them fiercely.

Sure enough, the inside and outside of the long room were much quieter.

On the tenth day of the first lunar month, Mrs. Liang brought Liang Hao and Liang Wan to pay New Year's greetings to Mrs. Qu.

Old Madam Qu was very happy, and sent someone to summon both the Meng family and the Fang family to accompany the guests.

As soon as Qu Ying and Liang Wan met, they got tired of one place. The two talked about some poetry and lyrics, talked about some embroidery patterns, and were as intimate as close friends who had known each other for a long time.

This is probably what people often call fate.

Lu Jiayue thought happily in her heart.

Liang Hao sat behind Mrs. Liang with his eyes and nose, and he didn't even raise his eyelids at will, except for what Old Lady Qu and Meng Shi Fang asked him.

Fang Shi quietly smiled with Meng Shi: "This kid is polite, but he is a little too much, and he looks pedantic. ”

Meng Shi said: "That's not necessarily, I think he is a good boy who is strict and square." ”

The girls were hiding behind the screen, and they were making a fuss, when they heard the maids outside.

"The eldest young master came to greet Mrs. Liang."

When Qu Song came in and saw each other, he heard Mrs. Liang smile and said: "I have always heard that the eldest prince in your mansion is talented and good-looking. ”

Meng Shi hurriedly humbled himself.

Lu Jiayue put her face on the screen and looked out, and saw Qu Song sitting opposite Liang Hao. Looking at Qu Song's demeanor and romance, it seemed that a pair of eyes were staring at Liang Hao for a moment.

Lu Jiayue couldn't help but laugh in her heart.

This cousin Song, just staring at Liang Hao like this, is not afraid of scaring others?

Qu Song couldn't sit for a moment, then invited Liang Hao to his study to talk.

It is common for men to go back and forth with each other, and it is common to go to the study to talk and chat, but in Lu Jiayue's eyes, it is clear that Qu Song's intentions are coming.

This is to avoid everyone's disturbance and take a good look at Liang Haoqi.

Liang Hao obediently followed Qu Song, but Qu Ying couldn't help muttering.

"Brother, what are you going to do... This is the first time he and Young Master Liang have met, so don't restrain Young Master Liang. ”

Lu Jiayue laughed and said, "If my sister is not at ease, just go with her." ”

Liang Wan heard it and smiled.

Qu Ying suddenly blushed with shame and didn't dare to squeak again.

*

When it was time for lunch, the maids replied that Qu Song had left Liang Hao to have lunch together in the study in the front yard.

When Mrs. Qu heard this, she sent someone to send a few more dishes, and smiled at Mrs. Liang: "Well, their young buddies should be closer in one place, let's eat ours." ”

Lu Jiayue was also happy.

It seems that Qu Song has a good impression of Liang Hao, otherwise he would not have left him for lunch.

Who knew that when it was time for dinner, the maids replied, saying that Qu Song had left Liang Hao for dinner.

Even Meng Shi couldn't help laughing and said, "It seems that although Brother Song and Young Master Liang have met for the first time, they are very compatible." ”

Lu Jiayue became more and more secretly happy.

Qu Ying's face quietly turned red and pink, pink and red.

After Mrs. Liang went, everyone in the banquet room in the upper room dispersed and went back to the house.

Lu Jiayue returned to Chuntang Residence, but no one was seen from the courtyard to the porch. Xin Zhu picked up the curtain and came into the small hall, but saw a few little maids sitting around the two of them, and they didn't know what they were talking about.

"What's going on?" Lu Jiayue stepped forward.

The little maidens all dispersed at once, and all of them stood aside with a worried expression.

I saw that Juxiang was holding a box of cooling cream in her hand, gently smearing it on Yuxiang's face. Seeing Lu Jiayue coming in, his hand stopped.

Looking at Yuzu again, the left cheek was red and swollen, obviously a slap left.

Lu Jiayue couldn't help but be shocked and angry: "Who beat you?!"

Lu Jiayue didn't ask, but as soon as she asked, Yuxiang whimpered aggrievedly.

Still Juxiang lowered her voice and said, "It was the second miss's nurse Guo Mama who beat it..."
