Chapter 543 Anxious Jiang Yanzhi

"I originally thought that if Pingting could sit in that position in the future, it would be great. If you like her, you can pamper her more. It doesn't matter if you don't like her. Anyway, she can't make any trouble. , but how would you know..."

Li Chengqi knew what Empress Song's unfinished words meant, and immediately felt more guilty in his heart. Thinking about the things he had done in secret, he said again, "Mother, I'm sorry..."

Empress Song just shook her head with a smile, patted his hand and said: "What are you sorry for, I can't blame you for this matter, it's all your father..."

Speaking of this, she suddenly stopped speaking again, and did not continue, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward. After all, I pried the corner of my son's wall, which is not a glorious thing.

Li Chengqi saw that the atmosphere was not right, so he immediately changed the topic and talked about what happened in the garden today, "Fortunately, I ran into Jiang Shidu today, otherwise his wife suddenly fainted and he couldn't be treated so quickly."

After Song Empress heard this, her eyes flashed slightly, and she said with a light smile, "I've seen Mrs. Jiang before. She doesn't look like she is weak and sick. Why did she faint today? I saw you in Jinmingchi last time. When she was with her, I had a good impression of her, and I wanted to talk to her again this time."

"The queen mother will call her into the palace next time she has a chance." Li Chengqi said nonchalantly.

Empress Song smiled and didn't say anything else, she just thought that it might not be easy to get her into the palace again with that girl being so cautious.

Li Meier, who had already finished her dinner, sneezed several times and rubbed her itchy nose, thinking in her heart that the two people in the palace must be thinking about her, feeling that life is so difficult, and there are crises everywhere.

Not long after the Li family had dinner, Jiang Yanzhi came over.

Mrs. Li was very happy to see him, pulled him very enthusiastically and asked, "Have you eaten? Do you want to have another bite?"

Jiang Yanzhi quickly waved his hand, "Eat, eat, I'm quite full, old lady, don't be polite to me."

"Then eat some more fruit." Then he asked Chuan'er to wash another plate of fruit, and then continued to pull Jiang Yanzhi to talk about family affairs, "Why did you come here alone? Wake up, speaking of it, I haven't seen Youzhi for a while."

Although Jiang Yanzhi was anxious about other things, he still patiently replied to Mrs. Li's words on the face, "The children are doing their homework. There is a lot of homework in school recently, and I don't have time to come. Youzhi is also busy. Isn't his wedding day approaching soon?"

When Jiang Youzhi's marriage was mentioned, Mrs. Li immediately opened up the chatter box and started talking non-stop, talking about what the man's family had to prepare for the wedding, and asking if there was any need for help, although you must not be polite.

Jiang Yan's face was gloomy, and he could only respond with "hmm, huh, huh", he had looked at Li Mei'er and Jiang Shanqing several times for help.

Li Mei'er was eating grapes, she knew why her uncle came here, she must have told him about entering the palace today, so she hurried over, wanting to ask her about the situation.

But Li Mei'er couldn't help laughing when she saw her uncle in such a mess, and deliberately didn't interrupt Mrs. Li, just wanted to watch her helpless uncle and her grandmother's helpless appearance for a while longer.

Perhaps Jiang Yanzhi also sensed Li Meier's sinister intentions, so he took the time to glare at her and gave her a warning look.

Li Meier finally said with a smile: "Grandmother, uncle must have something to do with brother Shanqing when he comes here, so please stop nagging him."

Mrs. Li immediately gave Li Meier a dissatisfied look, "As long as you know a lot, if your uncle has something to do, he won't talk about it himself."

"That... old lady, I really have something to ask Shanqing, just some trivial matters in the yamen..." Jiang Yanzhi interjected at the right time, and finally got him to speak.

Mrs. Li glanced at Jiang Yanzhi, obviously still a little bit unfinished, but since he has a business, she can't hold back the conversation, so she nodded and said: "Then you go to the study to talk, the business is important, and I will send someone to you in a while." Take supper to go."

Jiang Yanzhi seemed to be pardoned, thanked Mrs. Li with a smile, and walked out the door with Jiang Shanqing who had already got up.

Li Meier also stood up as a matter of course, wiped the grape juice on her hands with a handkerchief, and prepared to go to the study with the two of them.

But as soon as she stepped out, Mrs. Li stopped her in a loud voice from behind, "The man is talking about business, what are you going to do, go, go to the kitchen to prepare supper, my brother Kang just said that he wants to eat white sugar Cake."

Kang Geer, who was sitting on a chair and concentrating on eating grapes, was suddenly called by his grandmother. He raised his head in a daze, and met his sister's threatening eyes. Just talking casually, I can eat anything, I don’t pick!”

Only then was Li Meier satisfied, and she looked at Mrs. Li and said, "It's grandma, you always want to eat white sugar cakes. Didn't I tell you earlier, eat less sweet things at night, and when the time comes, you will eat a rotten tooth. How ugly it is to leak air."

"Bah! Don't talk nonsense, I brush my teeth every time I eat sweets, so that my teeth won't rot. If you are lazy and don't want to do it, just say it. Why scare my old man."

Mrs. Li is now influenced by Li Meier and Jiang Shi, she is also an old lady who loves beauty very much, she can't stand others saying that she is not good enough.

Li Meier just smiled cheerfully, and began to comfort the old lady again, "Anyway, it's not good to eat too much sweet at night, how about this, I'll make double skin milk for you, put less sugar, put some osmanthus, it's still fine Eat." Double skin milk is much simpler than white sugar cake.

Mrs. Li thought for a while, Shuangpi Nai is also good, when the time comes, she will secretly pour some honey, it will still be sweet, but she still has a reluctant look on her face, and slowly said: "That's it, what a lazy girl. When I was in my hometown, I always liked to eat and drink, but now I am going back more and more.”

Li Meier didn't bother to argue with Mrs. Li, she slipped out as soon as she smeared oil on the soles of her feet, of course she didn't go to the kitchen, she went directly to the study, she didn't know if her uncle and brother Shanqing had started talking, she had to hurry up.

Li Meier trotted to the study room, where Jiang Yanzhi and Jiang Shanqing were already sitting opposite each other drinking tea.

Seeing her panting appearance, Jiang Shanqing quickly waved to her: "I've poured scented tea for you, it's not hot anymore, hurry up and drink."

A smile appeared on Li Meier's face, she lifted her foot and walked in quickly, thinking to herself, my brother Shanqing is caring.
