Miss Meng, the daughter of the military department who had seen Xu Jingxi, chased even more fiercely.

often invited Xu Jingxi to come out, knowing that he was quite fond of poetry and songs, he spent his own money to hold a poetry meeting and invited Xu Jingxi to participate.

However, Xu Jingxi had no intention of getting married, and seriously rejected Miss Meng once.

He has made it very clear that he will not get married until his eldest brother and second brother get married.

Unexpectedly, Miss Meng was not discouraged, and still sent him things every once in a while.

One day, Second Master Xie went out.

Before he could reach the corner of the street, he was stopped by Miss Meng.

"Hello Uncle Xie, I am a friend of Third Prince Xie, and my surname is Meng." The little girl is delicate, and her mouth is sweet and calling.

Second Master Xie was stunned and a little confused: "Do you have something?" Yuan'er is not at home today. ”

Miss Meng waved her hand again and again: "I'm here to visit you and Prime Minister Xie." ”

As she spoke, the maids behind her handed over four exquisitely wrapped brocade boxes.

"Recently, in the spring, here is the snow lotus that my family asked someone to buy, which can strengthen the body, and is particularly helpful for your physical recovery, Uncle Xie, those are some cordyceps, as well as some secret medicines from other regions, which can help the legs and feet to activate blood and eliminate blood stasis."

Second Master Xie paused: "Thank you for your kindness, but it is useless, please take it back to Miss Meng." ”

Miss Meng smiled: "You can take it, these are all worthless gadgets, you can use them best." ”

Her maids were clever, and they had planned for a long time, but seeing that Second Master Xie refused, they directly stuffed the gift box into the hands of the little guy behind him.

Miss Meng was afraid that Xie Erye would refuse again, so she hurriedly fled with the maid.

Looking at her back, Second Master Xie frowned helplessly.

The little guy behind him has been completely blocked by the gift box: "Second master, our third son is really charming!" ”

Second Master Xie pursed his lips: "If you are not a relative, you shouldn't accept other people's things, you send these to Yuan'er's yard, wait for him to come back, and let him dispose of them himself." ”

That same evening.

Xu Jingxi went back with Ye Shangyi.

Today, Xu Jingxi was invited by Mrs. Ye to go to Ye's Mansion to listen to the lectures of literary masters, so he came back a little late.

I heard that the Xie family has a collection of calligraphy and paintings, which was left by the eldest lady Shen Siyi, and Ye Sheng made a special trip to taste it.

As soon as Xu Jingxi entered the door, the subordinates didn't see Ye Shangyi behind him, and said quickly: "The third young master is finally back, Miss Meng sent a lot of things to the eldest master and the second master during the day, and the second master said to let you watch and deal with it." ”

Xu Jingxi turned his head and saw that there were four brocade boxes on the table in the main hall of the hall.

He stared slightly: "Go back, thank her for me, but please don't send it again in the future." ”

At this moment, Ye Shangyi asked out loud: "You don't want to see what it is?" ”

Xu Jingxi shook his head: "I didn't plan to accept it, what do you want it to do?" ”

Only then did the next person see Ye Shangyi follow back to the house, and hurriedly asked for peace: "Miss Ye is here...... The small ones go to the tea. ”

Xu Jingxi asked people to bring the Tibetan characters of the literary masters.

"I just asked the uncle, you can take it back and taste it."

Ye Sheng thanked her, and then was about to leave, when suddenly, she remembered something.

"It's my grandfather's birthday in a few days, and he asked me to invite you to come with me, don't forget."

Xu Jingxi subconsciously wanted to refuse.

Recently, Mrs. Ye has frequently invited him, and he has been too close to the Ye family.

But I heard Uncle Xie Suzhi say before that if you want to enter the official career in the future, then when making friends, it is best to maintain the distance between gentlemen and gentlemen.

Now Mrs. Ye is quite grateful to him because of what happened last time, so he almost thought he was a grandson.

Ye Shangyi saw Xu Jingxi's hesitation, and she immediately said: "This is my grandfather's seventieth birthday, and Ning Ning will also come." ”

Xu Jingxi agreed: "That's good." ”

After that, Ye Shangyi wanted to go back, and Xu Jingxi specially sent her to the carriage.

The carriage left in a hurry, and when he turned around, he saw Xie Ming'an leaning against the door frame, looking at him with his arms folded and eyebrows raised.

"Isn't it almost there?" Xie Ming'an asked.

Xu Jingxi frowned: "What is it?" ”

He passed by Xie Ming'an, his face was indifferent, Xie Ming'an had a questioning attitude: "Your marriage!" Recently, many of my colleagues have asked me if you are going to become the grandson-in-law of the Ye family. ”

Xu Jingxi stopped.

He looked at Xie Ming'an and smiled slightly: "Second brother, I've disappointed you, what I told everyone is that my own family affairs will only be considered after you and your eldest brother are married." ”

After speaking, he lifted his robe and left, leaving Xie Ming'an stunned in place.

"You——! Or are they not brothers?! Xie Ming'an's roaring and frantic voice came from behind him.

Next.

Shen Ningning and Ye Shangyi went to the street together, and she was going to pick out some birthday gifts for Mrs. Ye, who was about to die.

The two also called Qi Xiuwei.

The three little girls went shopping all morning, and first searched the jewelry shop and the silk village.

I bought a lot of things for myself, but I haven't bought the gifts I picked for Mrs. Ye yet.

Shen Ningning looked around and was not satisfied.

A few people were tired of shopping, so they found a teahouse to sit and rest.

People come and go in the lobby, and the spring outside is bright, shining with a flower shadow.

"I see, it's better for me to take something from the mountain, hmm, how about sending ninety-nine spirit grasses to the Ye family's grandfather?" Shen Ningning said.

Ye Shangyi drank tea and sighed: "Anyway, as long as you send it, my grandfather will definitely like it, even if you don't send anything, he will be happy to see you." ”

Qi Xiuwei smiled: "I've already thought about it, and when that day comes, I will send the century-old ginseng that I stored at home." ”

While several people were talking, suddenly, a pleasant voice sounded from the side.

"What a coincidence, Her Royal Highness Princess, Miss Ye, Miss Qi, you are all here."

The three of them looked to the side and saw Miss Meng coming over with a few maids.

When Ye Shangyi saw her, her eyes flashed, and she pursed the corners of her mouth and didn't speak.

Instead, Shen Ningning smiled and beckoned: "Miss Meng, are you also here for tea?" ”

"I happened to be passing by and saw that you were all here, so I came to say hello."

Qi Xiuwei sat down next to her a little, and was about to ask the shopkeeper to add a stool to Miss Meng, but she stopped her.

Miss Meng smiled: "I won't sit down, there is still something to do, Your Royal Highness Princess, recently my brother came back from Huizhou and brought their Taihu pen and red sandalwood inkstone, you happen to be here, please help me hand it over to the third prince of Xie." ”

Shen Ningning was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly waved his hand: "Miss Meng, I can't collect things for my third brother, if you want to give it, how good is it to hand it over to him yourself?" ”

Miss Meng smiled and paused, and then nodded: "That's right, that is, a while ago, he mentioned it to me, so I thought about giving it to him quickly, so I won't disturb you to drink tea." ”

With that, she simply greeted each other and left.

Looking at her back, Qi Xiuwei couldn't help but say, "She is really careful about Xu Gongzi." ”

Shen Ningning echoed: "Yes, I also heard that she has always come to the house to deliver things recently, and the matchmaker has introduced so many blind dates, only she has been in contact with my third brother, maybe the third brother likes her?" ”

"No way!" Ye Shangyi didn't speak, and suddenly slapped the table at this time, and the sound was loud, which made the originally noisy teahouse suddenly quiet.

Everyone's puzzled eyes fell on her face. (End of chapter)
