Seeing that Meng Zhiyi's face was not good-looking, Zhou Yongheng hurriedly put away the villain's expression on his face, "Stop, don't be angry. Isn't that kidding you, sir! I also want to apologize to you, I was too impulsive last time and disturbed your birthday, and I will definitely give you a good time next time. It's a gift for you to apologize."

Zhou Yongheng handed over a delicate box.

Meng Zhiyi glanced at the winter solstice, and took the box before the winter solstice.

In fact, if you really want to talk about it, she and Zhou Yongheng Xu Chunrou are childhood sweethearts, because they were both born in the same year, and the biggest difference in the birth month is one month, and she is closer to Xu Chunrou's birthday.

The previous Jiangnan City was the most famous, the most talked, and the most dazzling was her daughter of the Meng family. And Xu Chunrou is raised in the boudoir and never shows up outside, so she is gradually about to be forgotten.

At this moment, looking at the busy subordinates at the door of Xu's house, as well as the various flower pots placed outside the house, it is obvious that this time Xu Chunrou wants to take advantage of her birthday to have a good time, so that everyone will remember that there is another daughter of the Xu family in Jiangnan.

It's probably not just to trap her.

Meng Zhiyi set his eyes on Zhou Yongheng's body, "I forgot to ask, how is Ling Zun now?"

Zhou Yongheng's face darkened a little, but he didn't think about hiding it from her, "My father can be regarded as saving his life, but his body bones are still very poor, so I sent them all to Kyoto, hoping to find a famous doctor to treat him."

Seeing Meng Zhiyi's somewhat surprised expression, Zhou Yongheng explained again: "Now, I am already the head of the Zhou family, and I am the master of the entire Zhou family. My mother also went to Kyoto, and none of them could control me."

「…… Then congratulations." Meng Zhiyi was silent for a moment, and congratulated without much emotion.

"Then you must come on the master's birthday, and I just happened to announce this matter."

"We'll talk about it then." Meng Zhiyi subconsciously twisted his eyebrows.

Zhou Yongheng got her answer and was in a good mood.

At this time, Xu Chunrou, who had been notified by his subordinates and hurriedly sorted out her makeup, also came out.

"Miss Meng, Gongzi Zhou, I didn't expect you to come so early, why didn't you go in first?"

Meng Zhiyi smiled: "We also just arrived, so we said a few words and prepared to go in."

Xu Chunrou stood beside Zhou Yongheng, "It's me who is rude. Miss Meng is here, but I didn't expect me to be greeted at the door, let's go in quickly, it's a little cold outside."

Meng Zhiyi nodded politely at her.

Xu Chunrou looked at Zhou Yongheng softly, "Master Zhou, why are you dressed so thinly?"

Zhou Yongheng now also felt that Xu Chunrou's question was really a little inappropriate, glanced at her, and waved at the little guy standing on the side.

The little guy was very clever and pulled out a wooden box from his bosom.

Zhou Yongheng raised his chin and nodded to Xu Chunrou, and the little guy raised his hands above his head and sent the box to Xu Chunrou.

Although this little guy was respectful, Xu Chunrou still felt a trace of humiliation deeply.

It's not that she didn't see Zhou Yongheng take out a delicate box from his arms and hand it to Meng Zhiyi, and Meng Zhiyi's expression at that time was exactly the same as Zhou Yongheng's expression to herself now.

Xu Chunrou's body shook, almost unable to stand, she bit her lip, and looked at Zhou Yongheng pitifully, "Zhou Gongzi, it's better to take the gift first, it's too cold outside, let's go in first."

In short, she didn't want to take this box from the hands of the little girl.

"I have something to do, so I won't go in." Zhou Yongheng said this by looking at Meng Zhiyi's back, and when it was over, he didn't forget to remind her again, "You promised to come, remember to come when the time comes." Also, I'll send you some fine charcoal when I get back, and you tell your subordinates not to refuse again."

Xu Chunrou was very unwilling to be ignored like this, and in front of Meng Zhiyi, all her previous scenery was compared to Meng Zhiyi, and now her father relaxed a little bit about her, and naturally wanted to save some of the face of the Xu family's daughter.

Little daughter

The mind of the family is all on these details, and it is also invisibly comparing with each other.

Xu Chunrou's voice trembled, "Gongzi Zhou is so busy, in fact, he doesn't have to come over in person. It's a birthday that passes every year, so you don't have to worry about it."

She just said this to let Meng Zhiyi listen to it, Zhou Yongheng still cared about her, otherwise she wouldn't have rushed over early in the morning, just to give a gift.

also mocked Meng Zhiyi by the way, because the birthday of the daughter of the Meng family is very grand every year. It seems that who doesn't know that the Meng family is rich.

Who knew that Zhou Yongheng said, "I came with Ah Yi early in the morning, and your birthday gift was originally sent by Xiaowu. It just so happens that you're all out, so let's go on, and the little guy in the province will have to run again."

At this time, the Zhou family is the place to employ people, and he is also taking care of the face of the Xu family, otherwise he will definitely not let the little guy run this trip, after all, the Xu family does not lack his birthday gift.

As soon as Xu Chunrou heard Zhou Yongheng's indifferent words, she couldn't stand it at all. It was the girl behind her who quickly and quietly held her waist.

Xu Chunrou's eyes were flustered, and she subconsciously looked at Meng Zhiyi, she didn't know if she heard the voice here, and the figure was about to disappear from sight.

She's setting up a ring here, but who knows that the people who want to watch her have long since disdained.

Xu Chunrou was really sure that Meng Zhiyi didn't care about Zhou Yongyi for a long time, but what made her even angrier was Zhou Yongheng's attitude towards Meng Zhiyi.

Why is she?

Xu Chunrou clamped her nails deep into her palm, looking at Meng Zhiyi's slender figure, her eyes were calm.

In today's Jiangnan City, the major families are still willing to give face to the Xu family, so not long after Meng Zhiyi sat down, the young ladies and sons of each family have already arrived.

The customs here in Jiangnan City are still quite open, and the rules for men and women not to sit at different tables are not so strict. And now it has been formed that if anyone has a banquet like this, they are happy to come, because they can see each other.

Different from the last banquet of the Meng family, the atmosphere of the banquet of the Xu family this time was obviously much more relaxed, and everyone talked about all kinds of things, and it was no longer the gossip of Meng Zhiyi.

However, Meng Zhiyi sat there alone, looking a little lonely.

Xu Chunrou always likes to play those tricks that can't be put on the stage, obviously the butterfly flowers on the banquet, but she always can't fly here, and deliberately forgets her in the corner.

Meng Zhiyi has also been waiting, waiting for the Xu family to test her, or what will they do to her? It's better to be faster, or she won't be able to complete the task with this bait.

It's the winter solstice, and I've been very nervous since I came to the Xu family.

"Miss Meng, why are you here alone today?"

At this moment, a woman walked up to her seat and sat down, speaking in a very familiar tone.

Meng Zhiyi turned her head to look at her, but she didn't think out who this woman was, so she could only look at the winter solstice standing on the side with an inquiring gaze.

Winter Solstice lowered his voice, "Girl, it's the second lady of the Yang family."

The woman was so close to her that she could barely hold back the smile on her face when she heard the whispered conversation between the master and servant. Z.br>

Her Yang family is also a well-known family in Jiangnan City, and she has been to the Meng family several times, how arrogant the daughter of the Meng family is, she doesn't know her.

"Miss Yang, I don't have a good memory, don't mind." Meng Zhiyi's attitude was very gentle, and there was no contempt in his eyes.

Her look made Yang Ziyue feel that Meng Zhiyi didn't seem to want to humiliate her, so she was bold and came to gossip again.

"Miss Meng, your husband didn't come because he was beaten by Gongzi Zhou last time, and his injuries haven't healed yet?"

Meng Zhiyi's smile deepened, and he also noticed the direction that Yang Ziyue came from just now, and several young ladies exchanged their heads and looked at her from time to time.

Yang Ziyue should have been sent by them to take the lead.

Meng Zhiyi looked at whether Yang Ziyue was bold or really stupid, "Does Miss Yang care about my husband very much? I heard that Miss Yang had intended to marry Zhou Gongzi before

Dear, it's just a later ......."

Meng Zhiyi paused deliberately, as if he was a little embarrassed, and then said, "My husband knows someone who is similar to him, I don't know if Miss Yang needs it, I can help match him."

Meng Zhiyi blinked mysteriously after finishing speaking.

Yang Ziyue's face turned red and black on the spot, and she didn't know how to refute Meng Zhiyi for a while.

She doesn't care about her reputation like Meng Zhiyi, and the family deliberately married her to Zhou Yongheng before, and was humiliated by Mrs. Zhou, very few people know about this matter, even Xu Chunrou doesn't know, I didn't think that she would be told by Meng Zhiyi today.

What does she mean? Do you feel as romantic and shameless as she is?

"I'm just worried about Miss Meng, how can you misinterpret me like this? Besides, I'm talking about marriage seriously, and I'm not as casual as Miss Meng."

After Yang Ziyue finished speaking angrily, she flicked her handkerchief and returned to her position.

Several women over there hurriedly pulled her and asked in a low voice.

Meng Zhiyi glanced at it, a mocking smile on the corner of his lips, just this trick, he still dared to rush in front of her?

If she had changed her temper before, she would have to be slapped back. However, it is also quite cool to embarrass her in this way, because her words just now will definitely reach Xu Chunrou's ears, and she is afraid that she will not be able to call Yang Ziyue a sister.

Sure enough, after a short time, Xu Chunrou went to Yang Ziyue's pile, and the more she chatted, the more she couldn't hold back the smile on her face.

"Girl, why don't we go back?" Winter Solstice whispered. She looked at the young ladies who all had ghosts in their hearts.

"Wait." Meng Zhiyi is quite leisurely.

She also had a silver ring in her hand today, and a silver needle could shoot out from under the silver ring, so she didn't have to worry about them poisoning these foods and getting hit. If you don't enter the tiger's den, you will get the tiger.

"Sisters, we might as well go to the conservatory in the backyard."

Xu Chunrou sat with everyone for a while, and suddenly said with a smile.
