Chapter 9: The Chief's Granddaughter
Meng Baiyu woke up three days later. When he opened his eyes, he found himself sleeping on a soft couch, and the pink curtain suddenly came into view, and the whole bedroom was filled with a faint fragrance of butterflies. He was about to close his eyes and take a deep breath of flowers, when he suddenly noticed someone beside the couch, so he turned his head to look, this look, but he was frightened a lot, only to see a young woman standing in front of the couch blinking at him, those eyes, as bright as grapes, and as crystal clear as the morning dew.
"Who are you and where am I?" Meng Baiyu immediately sat up stiffly.
"Is Miss Ben scary, like she's seen a tiger?" The girl laughed.
"What's so scary about tigers?" Meng Baiyu seemed to be in shock.
"Does that mean Miss Ben is scarier than a tiger?" The girl said angrily.
"I'm not saying that the girl is scary, but when I woke up, I suddenly found a strange girl standing by the couch, and I was scared."
"Hmph, that's not to say Miss Ben is terrible." The girl pursed her lips.
"Okay, it's my fault, it's my wrong thing, the girl is not terrible, the girl is so beautiful, how can it be terrible."
"You're a nice talker. If you haven't woken up yet, go back to sleep. The girl said softly.
"I don't sleep." Meng Baiyu said, and got off the bed, "Where am I?" ”
"My bedroom." The girl thought for a moment and said slyly.
"Ahh Meng Baiyu was startled again, and immediately stood up, forgetting to put on his shoes for a while.
"What's all the fuss, it's not sleeping with me."
Meng Baiyu breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good if it's not messy, it's good if it's not messy." ”
"Do you still want to mess up, drink like this, I'm afraid that I will be dismantled by others, and I don't know it, can I still mess up?"
"It's not that serious, is it?" Meng Baiyu said, only to find a hole to hide.
"Not serious? I've slept for three days and nights, and it's not serious? ”
"What? What kind of wine is that, so powerful? Meng Baiyu exclaimed.
"It's not that the wine is bad, it's that people can't do it, don't pretend to be a hero if you can't drink it, no one will say anything about you."
"What the girl said is that the next time I drink, I will do what I can."
"You put on your shoes first, and I'll prepare water for you to wash." My aunt said, turning to leave.
As soon as the girl left, Meng Baiyu hurriedly put on her shoes and tidied up her clothes before she took a closer look at the bedroom. I saw that this bedroom was divided into inner and outer rooms, separated by a pink bead curtain, and on the wall on the right side of the bed, a short sword was hung, and on the left wall was a carved wardrobe. Lifting the bead curtain and walking out of the bedroom, I saw a vermilion lace screen erected in the center of the outer room, and on the screen, the butterfly was depicted. On the left side of the screen, in a celadon flower pot, a green bamboo tree is growing happily. On the right side against the wall, there is a piece of table, on which is placed a flower sac and a tall plate, in the flower bag is a blooming butterfly flower, and in the plate is a fresh fruit lotus. Directly opposite the wall is a dresser, on which a bronze mirror is placed, and the room looks fresh and relaxed. On the left side of the screen is the side room, which is also separated by a pink beaded curtain. Coming to the side room, there is a carved case in the center of the side room, on which is placed a silver teacup and a pair of silver teacups, the teacup and teacup are carved with lush maple wood, which makes people feel a sense of heaviness. Seeing the tea vessel, Meng Baiyu immediately stepped forward quickly, sat on the garden bench in front of the desk, reached out and picked up the teacup and poured tea into the teacup.
"I see you men, all of them are drunkards." By this time, the girl had brought in a basin of water, put it on a high stool beside her, and "washed her face first." ”
Meng Baiyu then put the teacup to wash his face, and while washing his face, he asked the girl standing beside him, "What is the girl's name?" ”
"My name is Lan Feng, and I am the granddaughter of the headman. What about you? ”
"It turned out to be Miss, my name is Meng Baiyu." Meng Baiyu paused and asked, "Why don't you call it Golden Phoenix and Silver Phoenix but Blue Phoenix?" ”
"My aunt said that on the day I was born, the sky was blue, and at the moment of birth, a phoenix flew in the sky, so I named it Blue Phoenix."
"I see, thank you Miss Lanfeng for fetching water for me."
"You look good-faced and have a sweet mouth, so call me Lan Feng." Lan Feng Road.
"Since Miss has instructed me, I will call it this in the future." Meng Baiyu said, "It's just that I have occupied this place for many days, where does the young lady go to sleep?" ”
"Go squeeze with grandma." Lan Feng Road.
"I'm sleeping here, and Miss comes in alone, aren't you afraid of gossip from others?"
"When I go into my bedroom, do I have to gossip? If you want to say you're afraid, I'm afraid you'll spit out the quilt. ”
Meng Baiyu turned his head and glanced at the bedroom door and said, "I didn't vomit, did I?" ”
"It's okay, you're a person who only eats and doesn't vomit."
"After that, I vomited all the food I ate."
"If you want to vomit somewhere else in the future, you won't be allowed here."
"Can I come here again in the future?" Meng Baiyu stared at Lan Fengdao.
"You still want to come? But it's not the first time you've slept in my bedroom, if you have the ability, come here. Lan Feng glared at Meng Baiyu.
"When have I slept in your bedroom?" Meng Baiyu felt a little inexplicable.
"Didn't you sleep in the sentry village guarded by Uncle Jin Peng?" Lan Feng Road.
Meng Baiyu then remembered that when he lived in the sentry village, he felt that the house had a woman's breath, and he didn't want to be the residence of the head's granddaughter.
"Where do you frequent?"
"When my grandma forced me to embroider, I went."
"Don't you like embroidery?"
"I don't like it, but my aunt said that she can't embroider and won't be able to marry in the future, and she was favored by my father because of her good embroidery. I said I wouldn't marry, but she didn't agree, forced me to embroider, as soon as I was lazy, she nagged, tired of listening, I just ran to Uncle Jin Peng to hide, not let her see. Lan Feng said proudly.
"You look like a good girl, not like a rebel."
"You don't know, my grandma's mouth is unforgiving, let alone your fault. I'm tired of nagging, and I have to find a place to be clean and clean. ”
"It's not good to be so willful."
"There's no way, as long as she doesn't force me to embroider, I'll listen to her."
"You don't like embroidery, so what do you like?"
"Love to play, hahaha." Lan Feng smiled.
"Hahaha, I like to play too." Meng Baiyu also laughed, "It's nothing if you don't embroider, a beautiful woman like you, and you don't have to rely on embroidery to get married, which boy do you want to look at, that boy must run to learn the art of embroidery, and show off a pile of clothes to please you." ”
"I only look at the person I like to watch, he just doesn't please me, I like to watch too." Lan Feng glanced at Meng Baiyu, "Oh, I'm going back, I've been here for a long time, I'm afraid that grandpa will blame." ”
"The head knows you're here?"
"Yes, grandpa asked me to see if you were awake." Lan Feng Road.
In fact, it wasn't that Rosie called Lan Feng to come, Lan Feng came back from playing outside for a few days, and heard that there was a tiger hero in the castle, but he was drunk and was sleeping soundly, so he wanted to see what was going on. Rosie didn't let her come, but she couldn't resist her, so she had to obey her wishes, but told her to only look at it and go back, not to stay. But after Lan Feng talked to Meng Baiyu, he was attracted by Meng Baiyu's words, and he forgot Rosie's advice for a while.
"You come alone, aren't you afraid that I'm a bad person?"
"Don't you see the sword hanging by my bedside, if you are a bad person, I will take that sword and stab you."
Listening to Lan Feng's words, Meng Baiyu's heart tightened, this girl has a jackal's heart, fortunately she is not a prodigal son.
"What, scared again?" Seeing that Meng Baiyu was silent, Lan Feng asked.
"The bile is almost scared out." Meng Bai Yu said.
"That's all about this ability, but everyone says you're a tiger hero."
"I'm a hero, just a man who abandoned his home and fled for his life." Meng Baiyu sighed.
"Did you really bave a flying tiger?"
"Most of the time it's because the flying tiger is as spiritual as the tiger in Mingchuan, and he doesn't want to hurt people, so why take it seriously?" Meng Bai Yu said.
"Although the tigers in Mingchuan recognize people, they are extremely hungry, and they will hurt people, and they are beasts after all." Lan Feng stopped, and said, "I won't tell you, I'll go to grandpa's side." ”
"What about me?" Meng Baiyu asked.
"You can go too, grandpa is afraid that you won't be able to eat, so he has ordered someone to boil porridge."
Meng Baiyu then followed Lan Feng out of the door. He hadn't eaten for a few days, and was hungry at this time, and was about to go and eat something, and at the same time to inquire about Mr. Mei. When he went out, Meng Baiyu thought that Na Rossi tolerated him sleeping in his granddaughter's bedroom, either to test him as a person, or to have ulterior motives, and to see him at this time, he had to be more careful.
Out of the door, past a garden and the garden where he had been drinking, he came to the stone castle where Rossi lived, at this time, Rosie was already waiting there, Lan Feng whispered a few words in Rossi's ear, and then left, and when he left, he glanced at Meng Baiyu again.
"Master Meng sat down and drank some porridge." After Lan Feng left, Rosie said to Meng Baiyu.
"Thanks, I was just looking for something to eat." Meng Baiyu said, picked up the bowl of porridge and drank it in a big gulp.
"It seems that the wine of the owner of the village is scattered." Rosie Road.
"I don't know what kind of wine that wine is, it's so powerful?" Meng Bai Yu said.
"We call it 'three days drunk', when you drink it, it is as light as water, but the back of your neck is big, and people who drink it for the first time usually get drunk for a few days, but when you get used to it, it's nothing." Rosie Road.
"This time it's too big, not to mention the loss of people, I even went to Miss Lan Feng's bedroom to sleep, I don't know what to blame?" Meng Baiyu asked tentatively.
"In Mingchuan, the host doesn't mind what bed the guests sleep in, and it is also common to sleep in the daughter's bed, as long as the girl doesn't mind. During this time, the girl will go to sleep with her relatives or go to sleep in other homes. But if the guest breaks into the bedroom of the daughter's house by himself, it is different, and this will most likely be regarded as ill-intentioned and will be beaten. Rosie said slowly, "But who said you slept in Lan Feng's bedroom?" ”
"Miss Lan Feng said it."
"You were deceived by that girl, and the bedroom was arranged for that girl, but that girl never slept and was always idle."
"I thought I was in trouble." Meng Baiyu breathed a sigh of relief.
"But that girl seems to have a good impression of the owner of the Meng Zhuang, if the owner of the Meng Zhuang does not dislike it, how about being my grandson-in-law?" Rosie Road.
Meng Baiyu was stunned for a moment, and whispered: "I, a homeless person, how can I be qualified to dislike others." Besides, Miss Lan Feng is like a hibiscus out of the water, how can I be worthy of her? ”
"My granddaughter is so naughty that I'm afraid no one will dare to marry her." Rosie sighed.
"Miss Lanfeng is so beautiful, finding her is a blessing for men in the world, why should the head person worry about her."
Rosie seemed to want to say something, but Meng Baiyu opened his mouth again and led the words away: "Where is Mr. Mei now, can I go to see him?" ”
"Not now." Rosie shook his head, "He's in chastity." ”
"I don't know what grievances Mr. Mei has with the headman, the headman has a lot of people, I just hope that he will not be punished heavily."
"The owner of the village can rest assured that Zhenzhen is already like this, what good is it to punish Mei Haotian, it is better to let him accompany Zhenzhen for some time to see if Zhenzhen's eye disease can improve."
Only then did Meng Baiyu understand that Luo Xi arrested Mr. Mei because of Luo Zhen's matter.
"Since the head man is for Luo Zhen's senior's eye disease, why don't you say anything about it, so that we are worried and afraid?" Meng Baiyu glanced at Rosie.
"This ...... Actually, I just scared him, and I let him go back in a few days. "Rosie Road.
Knowing that Mr. Mei was fine, Meng Baiyu was relieved. After drinking the porridge, he was about to say goodbye to Rosie, when Lan Feng came in: "There are three fierce people outside the door, saying that they want to see their owner, if they are not allowed, they will break the door and come in." ”
"Who's coming?" Meng Baiyu asked Lan Feng.
"One is called Meng Zhong, one is called Xiaoli, and the other is called Ah What." Lan Feng Road.
Meng Baiyu glanced at Rosie, and said with a guilty face: "How offended, that's my brother." Seeing that I had not returned for many days, I was afraid that I was worried, so I came recklessly and hoped that the leader would forgive me. ”
"Since they are the brothers of the owner, let them in." Rosie Road.
"It's not necessary, I'm about to say goodbye to the leaders, I'll take them away." Meng Baiyu hurriedly said.
"In that case, then listen to the owner. I'll send you back with a horse. "Rosie Road.
"No need, Mengdu is so prosperous, I want to take a walk." Meng Baiyu thanked Rosie for his kindness and left the stone castle.
