It was almost noon, and the daylight was already a little hot this season.

It was warm and warm outside the car, but it couldn't warm Chu Mengqing's heart.

Chu Mengqing had the impulse to rush to him and ask him why? How can you return what you have received as soon as you want to?

But after thinking about it, I felt embarrassed again, saying that it was she who no longer corresponded with, and it was she who was embarrassed by her mother's life. He understands her filial piety and chooses not to embarrass her anymore, so do you want to thank him for making a choice for himself?

Furong on the side saw that her young lady's willow eyebrows were slightly frowning, and her expression was depressed, and she was very worried. Thinking of all kinds of rumors about Miss Yun Family, he secretly beat a drum in his heart and said, "Isn't Miss Yun Family bullying Miss?" ”

"Nothing." Chu Mengqing put away her thoughts, endured the sourness in her heart, and tried to put on a peaceful and generous appearance in the past.

Along the way, Chu Mengqing didn't dare to let her emotions be exposed, for fear that Furong would speculate in private. She didn't know about her and Yun Zhili in the first place, and now it is even more inappropriate for Furong and them to know.

With a "whoop", the coachman's long voice sounded, and the carriage stopped firmly at the door. The coachman set up the stool, Furong got out of the car first, and then answered from below, helping Chu Mengqing to get out of the carriage.

As soon as Chu Mengqing's feet touched the ground, she heard someone call her "sister" from a distance. ”

Chu Mengqing followed the prestige, it was his younger brother Chu Mengze, who had returned from school in the morning, and when he saw his younger brother rushing with joy on his face, the depression in his heart suddenly dissipated a little.

"Sister." The eleven or twelve-year-old boy ran up to Chu Mengqing, pulled her sleeves, and his eyes were as bright as stars.

"Mengze is out of school." Chu Mengqing said softly: "Don't run so fast, the weather is hot, and it's easy to catch a cold after sweating." ”

"Oh." The boy responded obediently, and then said happily to his sister, "Sir praised me today." ”

"Oh, what did the gentleman say to you?" Chu Mengqing looked very interested.

"The writing is very orderly, not bad." Chu Mengze coughed lightly, deliberately suppressed his throat, and imitated Mr. to speak.

Amused by her younger brother's pretending to be old, Chu Mengqing showed her first smile after coming out of the British Palace.

Furong looked up at the sky, felt the sun dazzling, and saw the sister and brother chatting in front of the door, and said, "Young Lady, go to the house to talk." ”

The two sisters and brothers chatted while walking, Chu Mengze said interesting things in the school, Chu Mengqing cheered up, and smiled cooperatively.

Furong on the side saw that the tip of the young master's nose was already sweating, so she hurriedly stepped into the house to make warm water.

After entering the house, Chu Mengqing took the towel handed by Furong and carefully wiped the sweat off her brother's face.

The boy was in high spirits, and his face was red from running and the sun. Chu Mengqing was infected by her younger brother's energetic appearance, and secretly decided in her heart that no matter what happened to her, she must be good and protect her brother's smile.

Thinking of this, Chu Mengqing felt that she was no longer so powerless. Her heart was suddenly full of pride, thinking of the pain of her father's death, she had borne it, but now her feelings were just a little uncomfortable, and she shouldn't let herself give up on herself.

She made her decision on the spot.

"Mengze." She took her brother's hand and said softly, "Sister has something to tell you." ”

"What does my sister want to say to me?" Chu Mengze stood aside, curious about what his sister was going to say next.

"Brother Li Yun won't come to give you homework in the future." After speaking, Chu Mengqing's heart sighed slightly, the gift of clouds? Li Yun? Even the name is fake, but it doesn't matter now.

"Why?" Chu Mengze was surprised, he liked that Brother Li Yun very much, although he didn't talk much, but he was very good to him, and his article can now stand out among his classmates is also related to Brother Li's guidance. He likes that big brother very much in his heart and is willing to be close to him.

"Brother Li is a busy man, and his home is far away, so it is very inconvenient to come every time. So, we can't keep bothering him. Chu Mengqing bothered to explain.

"If it's inconvenient for Brother Li to come, I can go to him." Chu Mengze proposed.

"No, Brother Li has been very busy lately, so I can't trouble him." Chu Mengqing said.

"Oh." Although Chu Mengze felt regretful, he had always listened to his sister's words, and his sister said no, so he didn't look for it.

Sensing her brother's loss, Chu Mengqing said softly: "Mengze is now a man, and my sister believes that even if you don't have the guidance of Brother Li, you can do it well." Right? ”

Hearing his sister say that he was a man, Chu Mengze's ambition in his heart was aroused, and he said loudly: "I can, I still have to take the test to gain fame and win glory for my sister." ”

"Sister believes in you." Chu Mengqing encouraged.

The siblings said something else, and went to the dining room to have lunch with their uncle's family. After finishing the meal, Chu Mengze returned to the room shared with his cousins in the East Chamber, and Chu Mengqing also returned to his residence.

Chu Mengqing called Furong, who was cleaning up the house, and said, "In the future, if Gongzi Li comes to Mengze or me again, he will say that we are not here." After saying that, he took out a tassel, thought for a long time, and threw it into the basket where the broken wiring head was placed; Then he sighed and picked it up. I threw it away again after a while, but I picked it up again after a while. Throw and pick up several back and forth.

It was rare for Fleur to see such a hesitant side of Miss, and although she had doubts in her heart, she could see that Miss was obviously on her mind at the moment, and she replied that she knew and continued to do her work.

She faintly felt that the tassel in the young lady's hand was a little familiar, as if she had seen it elsewhere, where was it?

In the afternoon, Bao invited Chu Meng to go to Xiuyun Building to buy clothes for summer clothes. Bao felt that Chu Mengqing had himself to accompany him, so he asked Furong to stay at home.

Fleur was sorting out the clothes for the change of season when she heard the porter say that someone had come looking for Miss. The porter saw that the young lady went out with his wife, and remembered Furong who was Chu Mengqing's personal maid in the mansion.

Furong naturally wanted to take a look, and when she walked to the door, she recognized the person who came, it was Li Yun and Li Gongzi, who tutored the young master in his homework some time ago.

Furong saluted and said respectfully: "Gongzi Li, my young lady has gone out, I don't know why Gongzi came?" Slaves and maids can convey on their behalf. ”

Yun Zhili replied calmly: "When I was guiding Gongzi Chu a few days ago, I accidentally left a very important thing in the Chu Mansion and wanted Miss Chu to find it on my behalf. ”

"I don't know what Childe is looking for, please tell Childe, and the slave will tell Miss when she comes back."

"This ......" Yun Zhili looked very embarrassed, and said, "This matter is very important, and I need to talk to Miss Chu for an interview." ”

"This ......" Furong remembered Miss's previous conversation, and knew that Miss was deliberately not seeing Li Gongzi, but Li Gongzi looked like he had to talk to Miss at this time, Furong said: "Miss doesn't know when she will be able to return when she goes out this time, it is better for Misse to leave a letter, and the slave maid will hand it over on her behalf." ”。

"Why don't you tell me where your young lady has gone, and I'll go straight to her?" Seeing Fleur's hesitation, Cloud Rite proposed.

"The slave doesn't know very well." Fleur replied stiffly. The conversation between Chu Mengqing's sister and brother did not avoid Furong before, and Furong knew that her young lady's attitude was that she didn't want to see Li Gongzi, although she didn't know the reason. If she leaked Miss's whereabouts, Miss wouldn't blame herself if she found out.

The porter saw that Fleur didn't know much about Miss's whereabouts, and thought that Madame and Miss were in a hurry and didn't tell her. He saw that Li Gongzi had come in the past and was a regular customer, so he kindly reminded: "Didn't Miss go to Xiuyun Tower with Madame?" ”

Hearing this, Fleur silently rolled her eyes in her heart, what kind of mess this person is messing with.

"That's it, thank you." Hearing this, Yun Zhili turned around and rushed to the embroidered cloud building, hoping to meet him.

The moment Yun Zhili turned around, Furong remembered, didn't that spike be seen on the sword on Li Gongzi's waist?
