The second master and the girl on the kang were talking, and when they saw the second grandmother coming in, they all turned their heads to look at her, and a trace of surprise flashed in the eyes of the second master, and they instantly returned to coldness.

Mengxi stepped forward slowly, gave the eldest wife, the second master saluted, the eldest lady let her sit, and when Mengxi sat down under Xiao Jun, the eldest lady spoke:

"Xiu'er, come over and see the second grandmother," he turned to Mengxi and said.

"Second grandma, this is my niece Xiu'er, the old lady is about to celebrate her birthday, I just thought about taking Xiu'er over to live for a few days, so that I can celebrate the old lady's birthday, Xiu'er and her second cousin were the closest in the past, so I asked you and Jun'er to come over to meet today, and take care of them more in the future."

"My cousin-in-law is good, Xiu'er is not sensible, I hope my cousin-in-law will take care of me more in the future"

Xiu'er embedded her body in the kang, and said to Mengxi coincidentally, her voice brittle and timid.

Mengxi listened to the secret saying, this is the cousin that the eldest grandmother said, just listening to this voice, it makes people crispy to the bones, not to mention that she looks so delicate and charming, I see that I am pitiful, no wonder the second master is so devoted to her, thinking of this, he hurriedly got up and showed a blessing to the girl:

"Because I didn't know that my cousin was coming today, I didn't prepare anything, so my cousin will make up for it later, so that my cousin will smile."

"I've already delivered it for Xi'er, so Xi'er doesn't have to worry about it anymore"

When Xiao Jun saw Mengxi say this, he also felt that his mother didn't tell her about his cousin's entry into the house in advance, which was a little inappropriate, so he hurriedly relieved her.

"Thank you, Second Master, for thinking about everything" Mengxi thanked the Second Master lightly, and then sat down.

The three of them looked at the second grandmother for a long time, and they didn't find that she had a trace of displeasure, and her face had always been so calm, as if this was just a small household thing, the eldest lady couldn't help but be a little disappointed, the reason why she didn't greet the second grandmother in advance was to catch her off guard, and seeing the second grandmother's embarrassed appearance, she would feel indescribably comfortable, but today I saw that she was not surprised and nervous at all, just like this was the case, and she was a little discouraged for a while.

"Xiu'er heard that her cousin's food is delicious, tomorrow Xiu'er wants to compensate for her cousin's craftsmanship, and her cousin-in-law must make a few more snacks for Xiu'er, Xiu'er loves sweets the most."

The show girl said innocently.

"It's just nonsense in the mouths of the subordinates, if it's okay, don't really believe it, cousin"

Mengxi softly pushed back, and she didn't bother to serve her.

"No, I'll have to pay it up, cousin......"

Miss Xiu didn't stop talking until she reached her goal, the tail note of the cousin behind her was long, which really made people crispy to the bones, Mengxi guessed, the second master is almost weak now.

"Okay, cousin will come over at noon tomorrow, let your cousin-in-law make it for you to eat" Xiao Jun didn't wait for the second grandmother to answer, and then answered.

"Thank you, cousin, I know that my cousin is the best and loves me the most"

The show girl said innocently, but her eyes drifted to her cousin like a demonstrative.

When Xiao Jun heard this, he frowned unconsciously, secretly regretting that he had promised a little recklessly just now, and turned to Mengxi, only to see that she was still sitting there calmly, as if this matter had nothing to do with her, and the tension in her heart couldn't help but be replaced by a wave of anger, did she really care so much?

What can Mengxi do, she is a childhood sweetheart, she, an outsider, can only pretend to be Lafayette here, and she doesn't want to anger him like this, so she sighed secretly in her heart.

After talking for a while, the eldest lady asked the second grandmother to go back, Xiao Jun saw it, and also got up to go with the second grandmother, but was left behind by the eldest lady and said to him:

"Jun'er, don't be busy going back, Xiu'er will come over on the first day, let's go back after dinner"

Only the son is left for dinner, not the daughter-in-law, and there is a cousin who is there to accompany him, a fool can understand what is going on, Xiao Jun heard this, and looked at Mengxi apologetically, only to see that she still looked calm and calm, retreated, and walked slowly to the door, as if this matter should be handled like this, and secretly thought, is she really no longer minding, or is her head lacking roots? He laughed angrily for a while.

Chong Mother nodded, opened her mouth to answer, stopped, and said coldly to Mengxi: "Xi'er will go back to Xiaoxiang Courtyard first."

Mengxi answered, helped Zhiqiu, walked out of the east ear room, and returned to Xiaoxiang Courtyard all the way. When she arrived at Xiaoxiang Courtyard, Mengxi went directly into the backyard pharmacy and continued her unfinished work, Zhiqiu and Zhichun were nervously guarding outside, the two of you look at me, I look at you, I don't know how to comfort the second grandmother, today they both see it, this cousin must have a leg with the second master, but this eldest lady has done too much, and she doesn't even do face work, so she leaves the second grandfather for dinner, although the second master does not wait to see the second grandmother on weekdays, but looking at his face at the time, he also feels that the eldest lady has done too much, The two of them didn't even dare to say anything all the way, and they looked at the second grandmother's face vigorously, for fear that she wouldn't be able to think about it.

Finally, the second grandmother opened the door of the pharmacy and walked out with a tired face, and when she saw Zhiqiu Zhichun at the door, she was stunned for a moment:

"You have nothing to do, what are you doing here?"

"Second Grandma"

"What's wrong?"

"Second grandma, are you really okay" Zhiqiu finally couldn't help it, plucked up his courage, and looked like he was going home.

"What's the matter, what's wrong" Mengxi glanced at Zhiqiu and asked.

Zhiqiu saw that the expression of the second grandmother really didn't look like something was wrong, so he scratched his head and said carefully:

"It's a cousin's business"

Mengxi remembered the events of the afternoon, and felt funny, and pointed at the heads of the two people with his finger:

"You guys, one day I thought about something, they had feelings before I entered the house, in fact, the second master was quite pitiful, he was forced to marry me, a marriage without love is a shackle, if it can really fulfill them, it is good"

Mengxi is telling the truth, she has been in the house for so long, she calmly looked at the second master, and found that in addition to his temper, he is also a good man in other aspects, he is filial piety, affection, and handling family affairs is also unambiguous, of course, Mengxi thinks of affection refers to his love for his cousin, but unfortunately he was born in ancient times, marriage is not free, the reason why he hates her so much is probably because of his love for his cousin! She and he are just victims of this ancient marriage system, Mengxi is easy to understand the second master from the perspective of modern people, and she sometimes even feels a little pity for the second master, a little child who has been worshipped.

"Second grandma, why do you say that a marriage without love is a shackle, what is love?"

Mengxi glanced at Zhiqiu, didn't want to answer the two little girls, and raised her feet and walked towards the east chamber.

Zhiqiu They are ancients after all, in their opinion, her second grandmother, this life has been branded by the Xiao family, born is the Xiao family, death is the ghost of the Xiao family, if you can't be favored by the second master, then the future must be dark, poor her, how can it be the second master? He has three wives and four concubines, what is there to be pitied? Zhiqiu saw that the second grandmother ignored her, and said without giving up:

"But the second grandmother, the show girl and the second master ...... the end"

Mengxi didn't wait for her to finish, then stopped, raised her hand and knocked on their heads and said:

"I've been busy all afternoon, I'm starving to death, why don't I go to pass the food, if I don't pass the food, I will become the first grandmother in the history of Daqi to be starved to death by the maid."

Seeing that the two of them saw their grandmother say this, they knew that the second grandmother was really fine, so they quickly went to pass the meal.

Mengxi looked at their backs and shook her head, it seems that she really hastened to prepare for leaving the mansion, the eldest lady has already started to do it, her days in the Xiao Mansion are really numbered, she must plan her future place before the Xiao family takes her leave, so she will not go to the Laoshizi Etiquette, those who are three from the four virtues, what men are inferior to women, to hell, she must leave the house! Remarry!

Her short-term goal is to leave the house, and her long-term goal is to remarry.
