After eating, the two went to a dumpling shop to eat dumplings. It was an old couple who sold rice balls, Meng Xingci was obviously a regular customer, and the boss had already recognized her.

"Master Meng, are you still here with black sesame stuffing?" The boss greeted him politely.

Meng Xingci smiled and nodded: "I want two bowls." ”

The two sat on the side, watching the boss and his wife go about their lives. The eldest lady accidentally broke the bowl, and the boss hurriedly walked over.

"Don't move, be careful of hurting your hands, I'll sweep it." The boss said urgently.

Both of them have gray hair, but they are still so affectionate, and the boss still loves his wife.

Meng Xingci looked at them with envious eyes, Ye Xun saw it, and said in a low voice: "We will too." ”

Meng Xing was stunned for a moment, and looked back into his eyes. His deep dark eyes were her shadow, focused and gentle.

"We will too." Meng Xingci said softly.

The boss quickly served two bowls of rice balls, and smiled shyly at Ye Xun: "You taste it and see if it's delicious." ”

Ye Xun gave a thumbs up and said with a smile: "It's delicious!" ”

The boss thinks that Ye Xun is perfunctory to him, he hasn't eaten it, why can he say it's delicious?

Meng Xingci lowered her head and snickered and ate her rice balls.

The two of them ate a lot of things, but they still ate a whole bowl of rice balls. The boss was very happy to see it, thinking that Meng Xingci and Ye Xun had recognized his craftsmanship and were very proud.

Meng Xingci and Ye Xun didn't waste food at all, and then they both ate too much.

The two walked back on foot in the afterglow of the setting sun, and ate by the way.

Meng Xingci pursed his lips and snickered, "It turns out that this is an ordinary woman's day, and it looks good." ”

Ye Xun looked at her with a smile like a flower but didn't speak, because he knew that she was not an ordinary woman. It's not that he despises those ordinary women, he also affirms the efforts of other women. But Meng Xingci would not like to live such a day, for her, burying her talent and ambition is a kind of torture in itself.

Ye Xun secretly thought about how to change her current situation.

Ye Xun came back to his senses and said: "There is no reason for ordinary women to travel with men, that is, if they want to go out together, they must also be married." ”

After Ye Xun finished speaking, he looked at Meng Xingci with a silent gaze, his intention was very obvious.

Meng Xingci thought for a while and silently took a step back: "Thank you Ye Shizi for reminding me, it's true that I'm not thinking about it." Why don't you take the lead in Ye Shizi? ”

Ye Xun pursed his lips and immediately said: "We are not the kind of people who follow the rules, not to mention that our friendship is even different from others, we share weal and woe, life and death, how can we use secular concepts?" ”

Meng Xingci raised his eyebrows: "Don't you need to be married?" ”

Ye Xun nodded with a sad expression, very reluctant.

Meng Xing laughed.

The two returned to the Meng Mansion, Meng Xingci didn't think too much, and was about to walk in, when Ye Xun hooked his fingers.

Meng Xing looked at him puzzled, "Go in." ”

Ye Xun said in a low voice: "It's still early, let's talk." ”

As soon as they entered, there were so many people, they couldn't speak alone.

Meng Xingci curled the corners of his lips, "What does Ye Shizi want to say?" ”

Ye Xun took her hands, "In a few days, I will let my grandfather come to the door to propose marriage, and our affairs should be settled." Whether you want to marry in Shangjing, or go back to Yunzhou, Xingci, I want to marry you, and no one can stop me. ”

Meng Xingci blinked and called softly, "Grandfather." ”

Ye Xun said: "Even the old man can't do it." ”

"Can't you?" The voice behind him seemed a little old.

Ye Xun stiffened, he turned around stiffly, and saw the old marquis and Meng Qingyan standing behind him.

It was his fault, because he was with Meng Xingqi, so he relaxed his vigilance and didn't notice anyone approaching.

"Grandfather." Ye Xun called out awkwardly.

The old marquis raised his eyebrows and glanced at Meng Qingyan: "Call you." ”

Meng Qingyan smiled and said slowly: "Haven't you mentioned marriage yet?" ”

After Meng Qingyan finished speaking, he walked into the mansion calmly with his hands behind his back, paused, and glanced back at Meng Xingci: "Xingci, go home." ”

Meng Xing replied, saluted the old marquis, didn't dare to look at Ye Xun, and hurriedly followed Meng Qingyan into the mansion.

Ye Xun's face was full of pain, he didn't know how it happened, but he felt that he was really unlucky.

The old marquis glanced at him, "Did you hear that?" Propose! ”

Ye Xun didn't react, and looked at the old marquis a little blankly.

The old marquis snorted lightly: "Alas, I really don't have the demeanor I had at the beginning. ”

Ye Xun thought about it and fell silent.

Regarding the things between his grandfather and grandmother, Ye Xun also knew that his grandmother told him when he was a child. At that time, it was my grandfather who saved my grandmother, and my grandmother fell in love with the old marquis at first sight. Originally, the old lady was also a beautiful lady with a prominent status, but she bravely pursued love.

At that time, the old marquis had no feelings for the old lady, and the old lady once proudly told Ye Xun that the old marquis was chased back by her.

Ye Xun was silent for a while, and finally said: "I should really learn from my grandmother." ”

The old marquis suddenly glared at him, and said angrily, "I'm too lazy to care about you." ”

The old marquis turned around and left, and Ye Xun hurriedly chased after him: "Grandfather, I have to ask you to propose marriage." ”

The old marquis glanced at him: "Your daughter-in-law married herself, you have no ability, and you still want Lao Tzu to embarrass you?" Don't even think about it. ”

Ye Xun's face was full of sadness: "Then I can only let my grandmother ...... Grandmother should be about to enter Beijing, right? Just let her talk to Mrs. Meng. ”

"Your grandmother is an elder, and she is separated from Mrs. Meng, do you want her to ask for a junior?" The old marquis asked in disbelief.

Ye Xun looked at him innocently and said, "Otherwise, I'll be lonely for the rest of my life?" After a pause, he immediately said, "That's absolutely not going to work!" ”

Old Marquis: "......"

The old marquis looked at the sky sadly, what could he do? I can only sigh that my children and grandchildren are debts.

The old lady was not in good health, and she fell ill on the way to Beijing with Meng Qingyan and the old marquis, and she stayed in the town to recuperate. The old marquis was worried that she would be worried and sad when she went to Beijing, so he didn't let her enter Beijing, and only after the dust settled on Meng Xingci's affairs did he send someone to pick her up in Beijing.

Ye Xun is not really stupid, this kind of thing is naturally better for the female dependents to come forward.

Meng Xingci obediently followed Meng Qingyan back to the house, she carefully stared at Meng Qingyan's expression and smiled at him flatteringly.

Meng Qingyan turned a blind eye to her, just didn't look at her.

Meng Xingci finally couldn't help it, "Grandfather! ”

Meng Qingyan raised his eyebrows: "What's the matter?" ”
