Chapter 67
Liang Yimei picked twenty medium-sized crabs and steamed them in a steamer. She packed the rest and said to Qin Shu: "These are to be distributed to the neighbors. Grandma Qin and Grandma Fifth will go together. You and the two buckets My brother took them to Shang’s and Xu’s. Well, let’s go to Shang’s first. Brother Xu will definitely follow us if he knows we steamed crabs. Remember to ask him to bring some chrysanthemum wine. Our family doesn’t have these...these are For the Li family, fifth grandpa and fifth grandma will take it home tomorrow..."

Qin Shu wrote down one by one.

Putting the things on the cart, he followed Liang Yilin. Qin Pingbai was used to Liang Yilin, so he insisted on climbing into the donkey cart.

Liang Yimei carefully controlled the fire, and Fifth Grandma came in and gave her a hand and said, "Leave the work in the kitchen to me and your Grandma Qin. You should go out and play quickly, huh?"

Liang Yimei smiled and said, "You and Grandma Qin should send the ones to the neighbors first. I'm used to lighting fires, so it's nothing."

"Then be careful, don't let the sparks splash." Then she picked up her things and went out with Grandma Qin.The Fifth Grandma and Grandma Qin get along very well with the neighbors, and they are very popular in the alley with the Liang family. This year, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Fifth Grandma made some snacks for the neighbors. In addition, there are a lot of crabs in the house, and Liang Yimei also packs them. Got some to give away.

Sure enough, as soon as Liang Yimei adjusted the sauce, Xu Runxin's voice came in.Liang Yimei laughed while holding the sauce dish. As soon as Xu Runxin came in, he saw Liang Yimei holding the sauce dish and looking at him with a smile. He touched his nose and said, "Why are you standing here?"

Liang Yimei raised the plate in her hand and said, "You came just in time, and the crabs are just right."

Fifth Grandma came in from the outside and said, "Why are you standing here, come in quickly, the crabs made by plums are delicious, I can smell the aroma even outside."

Xu Run left Liang Yilin and others who were still unloading the truck, ran to Liang Yimei and said, "Where are you..." Xiaobai looked at his father, then at Liang Yilin, and he was still following Liang Yilin.Liang Yilin patted his head and said, "Go in and help Miss carry things."

Xiaobai responded, and ran in behind Xu Runxin.Several people laughed.

……

Mrs. Qian called a pair of children to her side and said: "Tomorrow, when you are guests at someone's house, you must observe etiquette. Since there are no elders in both families, you don't have to be as dull as before. You can play as you want, but you can't do anything too much." ,do you know?"

Qian Qinghao said: "Mother, don't worry, it's not the first time I've been to the Liang family, I'm familiar with them."

Mrs. Qian said with a smile: "I'm not worried about you, but you don't want to play too much, and take care of your sister." Then she turned to Qian Qingling and said, "You have seen the little girl from the Liang family, you Didn't you say you like her? When you go there, you just play with her, don't be as naughty as usual, you know? Although the Liang family doesn't have those big rules, she is no worse than the people you usually hang out with, and she is more courageous, so Be careful with your words and deeds, and don't say anything that offends others, you know?"

Qian Qingling pouted and said, "Mom, I've grown up, yet you still treat me like a child!"

Mrs. Qian lovingly stroked her head and said, "You are always children in front of mother!"

Qian Qinghao said from the side: "Mother, don't worry, I will take good care of my sister."

Mrs. Qian nodded, and gave some instructions to a few people before letting them go.Nanny Sun brought a cup of tea and said, "My wife is too worried. The Liang family has a small family, lost their parents since childhood, and has no education..."

Mrs. Qian put the teacup heavily on the table, and said sharply, "Don't say such things again! That's why I let them associate with the Liang family." A glint of appreciation flashed in her eyes, "Look at her that day, full of The maids and servants in the house were all trembling with fright, but she, a nine-year-old child, still had the guts to question... she even dared to turn around and leave, and she could file a complaint when she met the master... Otherwise, you think the master is right The old lady’s obedient temperament would easily let them go? Afterwards, she accepted Hao’er’s apology, and she was able to keep in touch with Hao’er often and guide him in his studies. Mrs. Qian stared at her with a stern look in her eyes, "Who dares to spread the news that the Second Young Master and Miss went to Liang's house as guests..."

Nanny Sun quickly knelt down and said, "Madam, don't worry, no one dares to pass it on!"

Mrs. Qian nodded in satisfaction, helped her up and said, "Of course I trust Mammy." She picked up the clothes that were put aside and continued working, and asked, "Is the young master back yet?"

Nanny Sun glanced at Mrs. Qian's face, and said, "Not yet, she said she will definitely be back before the fifteenth day."

"It's already thirteen! No matter how busy the business is, there will be a holiday, so why don't you know you need to rest?"

Seeing Mrs. Qian's unhappy face, Grandma Sun changed the subject with a smile, "This dress is only missing one sleeve, so the young master should be able to put it on when he comes back, right?"

Mrs. Qian said with a smile: "Yes, it should be finished tomorrow. If he can come back tomorrow, he can wear it. I also made clothes for the three of them. I don't know if the two children will wear it." Get angry?"

Nanny Sun laughed and said, "Second Young Master and Young Miss have grown up, so it's not like when you were young, because you made Eldest Young Master his favorite sweet-scented osmanthus cake and cried..."

Mrs. Qian was also caught in the memory, with a smile on her face, "No, Shen'er was also very naughty at that time, and brought cakes to his younger brothers and sisters, saying that I made them for him alone... "

Grandma Sun breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her.

Early the next morning, the two brothers from the Li family came. Liang Yimei and Liang Yilin carried the prepared gifts into the car and told them: "You drive slowly. Grandma Wu said yesterday that her waist is a little sore, so don't worry about it." Come back, anyway, the Mid-Autumn Festival is not open..."

Li Sanlang responded one by one, and seeing Qin Shu take out another bucket of crabs, he hurriedly said: "Uncle Qin, these things are already enough, why do you still take so many crabs? These are worth a lot of money!"

Qin Shu smiled and said, "This is what the young lady and the young master ordered."

Liang Yilin laughed from the side and said, "It's not for you. Grandma Fifth took it back to her mother's house. What's more, these crabs are raised at home and not bought outside. What's the value? We gave them to the neighbors yesterday. Hurry up and lift it up, and watch it when you go back, don't let the water spill out."

Li Sanlang knew that they were trying to save face for his aunt, so he had to accept it.Li Erlang carefully helped Fifth Grandma get into the donkey cart, and someone nearby asked Fifth Grandma, "What are you doing here?"

Fifth Grandma grinned and said, "I'll go to my mother's house, this is my grandnephew!"

"Then you will go to the Town God's Temple with us when you are fifteen? It was agreed at the beginning!"

Fifth Grandma quickly responded, "Go, I'll be back in the afternoon, and I'll accompany you tomorrow."

Liang Yilin glanced at Liang Yimei worriedly, and Liang Yimei pulled Li Sanlang over, "Yesterday Grandma Wu ate some crabs. She is getting old, so I can't give her any more crabs when I get home." Li Sanlang nodded repeatedly, "I will take care of it." of……"

Liang Yimei turned around when she saw them exiting the alley, "Brother, when will Qian Qinghao and the others come? The crabs are already steamed, just make some snacks and side dishes."

Liang Yilin looked at the sky and said: "Come here soon, you should prepare the dishes and heat them up first, even if you come, you can't eat right away, at least it will be noon."

Liang Yimei nodded.

Qian Qingling carefully raised the curtain and looked at the houses in the alley curiously, while Qian Qinghao said: "Although these alleys are small, the yards inside are not small. There is a backyard in Yilin's house, and you can see it from the back. There are a lot of fields, and his study is facing there, and I often envy him for having such a study."

Qian Qingling said with crooked eyebrows, "Really? I'll go see it later." As soon as the words fell, the carriage stopped, Qian Qinghao jumped down, and said, "It's here!"

Qian Qingling carefully stepped on the stool, looked up and saw Liang Yimei looking at her with a smile, she couldn't help but also smiled.

Qian Qinghao had already exchanged pleasantries with Liang Yilin, Liang Yimei stepped forward to support Qian Qingling, and said with a smile, "Let's go in and talk later."

When they arrived in the living room, Qian Qinghao introduced them to them, and Liang Yimei smiled and said, "I met Sister Qian's."

Qian Qingling also nodded repeatedly, "I'm older than you, so you can call me Sister Qingling, it's always Sister Qian's, it doesn't sound nice at all."

"Okay," Liang Yimei responded readily, "Then you can call me Meizi, that's what my family calls me."

Qian Qingling called out "Sister Meizi!" and met Liang Yilin again, because Qian Qingling is 12 years old and Liang Yilin is also 13 years old, it is not suitable to play together, seeing Liang Yilin and others sitting in the living room chatting enthusiastically, He served them some snacks and tea, pulled Qian Qingling and said, "Let's go to the backyard. There are two fruit trees in my backyard."

Qian Qingling responded with a smile.

Hongmei, Qian Qingling's maid, was relieved, she was really afraid that the small family of the Liang family would let the young lady sit with the young master of the Liang family like this.

When Liang Yimei opened the door to the backyard, Qian Qingling's vision suddenly widened, and she exclaimed, "It's so beautiful!"

Liang Yimei smiled, and led her to the fruit tree, "There are stone tables and benches here, you sit first, I'll get some food."

Qian Qingling looked around and responded.

She looked up at the fruit tree, and exclaimed, "This is longan!" Hongmei quickly stepped forward to look, and said in surprise: "Really, I used to grow some in my family, but there were very few fruits. I didn't expect there to be here. .”

Liang Yimei came out with something, and when she saw it, she smiled and said, "This is already there. It's just that it didn't bear fruit in previous years. This year is the first time it bears fruit. I washed some. You can try it. It was just picked this morning. Yes, if you like, you can also pick and eat it yourself."

Qian Qingling's eyes lit up, "Really?"

Liang Yimei nodded. The fruit tree is not tall, so you can pick some of it with a stool under your feet.Hearing this, Qian Qingling brought the stool over excitedly, but Hongmei couldn't stop her, and was a little anxious. This was not done by a lady, two big maids and four second-class maids, the wife only let her follow, isn't it because Is she steady and single-minded?If this gets out, Miss's reputation...

Liang Yimei smiled and said: "Go and close the door of the backyard, and then come and support your lady with a stool."

Hongmei's eyes lit up, that's right, there are only three of them here, as long as the young lady doesn't say anything, the young lady of the Liang family won't tell, who knows?She looked around and found that the yard of Liang's house was more protruding than other houses, and the people next to her couldn't see it at all. When she turned her head and saw the young lady looking at her eagerly, thinking of the young lady's lively temper, she gritted her teeth and agreed.

Liang Yimei sat on the side and instructed their master and servant to pick longan.Qian Qingling's laughter jingled and spread, making people feel good after hearing it, Hongmei also let go, and kept calling: "Miss, miss, a little further to the left, the big one over there... "
