Foster son and husband

Chapter 130 Inquiry
I was going to Jinhuatang for dinner, Mei Niang said: "The incident last night, in fact, as soon as I received the queen's double reward, I knew what was going on - the queen wanted to give Lin Runan something by my hand, The old lady thought of going to the other side, what should I do now? You are her grandson, she can't do anything to you, I don't want to hand over those things, but I will definitely be neglected and resented by her. Otherwise, find an excuse, I Don’t you want to go? In the future, I will try my best to go to Jinhua Hall as little as possible, and just go to check in once in a while. Anyway, I’ll be leaving in three months, just in time..."

Xu Junying's face was slightly astringent: "I'm willing to discuss with you for a long time, so you can't be patient? In the past, you could do so well, making the old lady happy and the younger sisters happy. I don't see how much effort you put in. , It can be seen that if you really regard yourself as a big grandmother, it is not difficult to do it! Come on, the old lady is not confused, she understands in her heart, if you don't go now, it will be even harder to meet in the future!"

Mei Niang had no choice but to follow him to the door, and asked: "What if the old lady mentions this matter again? Don't give it to her, give her face, and give it to her, but this is obviously my thing!"

"It's me, don't worry!"

Xu Junying opened the curtain and let her go first, then she walked out, took Cuixi Cuisi and the others, and went to Jinhuatang.

Xu Junying guessed that they were grandparents and grandchildren. Xu Junying guessed very closely. The old lady really understood the truth and didn't mention the Queen's reward, as if nothing had happened. Seeing Xu Junying and Mei Niang came, as usual, beckoning them to come and sit with a smile on her face, and kindly asked them if they had any snacks in the afternoon, but they were so hungry?Let Ji's mother go to urge the meal again, and don't let the grandchildren say that they have to wait too long.The old lady's calm attitude made Mei Niang sweat, feeling that she was a villain in vain and misunderstood the old lady.

Mei Niang and Bai Jingyu washed their hands first, spread the bowls and chopsticks, and served soup for the old and the young. Zhuang Yulan also helped. If there is one more hand, there will be fewer people to serve, which saves a lot of time. Xu Junying said to the old lady: "Grandma is more Take a sip of the soup, this soup is very good, it should be cold in a while!"

The old lady smiled and nodded: "This is golden pheasant shark's fin soup. It is delicious and refreshing. Don't you think it is very sweet when you drink it? This golden pheasant was delivered by the village today, and it ran out of the mountain in spring. I only got two or three in total. , it’s all here, you guys are blessed!”

Meiniang and Bai Jingyu looked at each other inadvertently, Bai Jingyu's eyes were full of gratitude, but Meiniang lowered her eyes: she didn't do that to vent her anger, but to make herself feel better.

It was almost noon when the golden pheasant was delivered, and Mei Niang knew about it, but the second wife was also very well informed, so she asked Mother Zhao who was beside her to ask: Aunt Xiangrui has not taken care of her body well after giving birth to Wei Er, Wei Er's nanny Recently, the milk supply has also decreased. The pheasants caught in spring are fat and tender, and they are the most nourishing. Should I first give two of them to my aunt and Weier?

Mei Niang said at the time: "I'm sorry to bother you to go back and tell the second wife: These pheasants are indeed fat and tender, but they have to be reserved for Jinhuatang, so that the old lady can try something new. Jinhuatang sets up a big table of food every day. They all come to accompany the old lady to have dinner together, the old lady is very happy, if Aunt Xiangrui and Weier want to make up, they can go to Jinhuatang at night, as long as she enters Jinhuatang, she must have a bowl of soup!"

Zhao's mother left with a sullen face, and the women in charge waiting in Ziyun Hall covered their mouths and snickered.

Zhuang Yulan finished serving the soup. Seeing that Mei Niang and Bai Jingyu were not seated, she was embarrassed to sit back beside the old lady, so she stood by Xu Junying's left hand and served him dishes. Xu Junying smiled and said, "Sit down, Lan'er, otherwise Soup doesn’t taste good when it’s cold!”

The old lady also looked at Zhuang Yulan hurriedly, and said, "I don't remember, but Junying hurts people! Sit down quickly, you all sit down, Mei Niang and Jing Yu, come and drink a bowl of hot soup!"

Xu Xiaomin stood up early and dragged Mei Niang: "Sister-in-law, come and sit here, I'll leave you a chicken leg..."

Xu Xiaorong handed over a plate: "Chicken wings, I ate one and left the other for my sister-in-law. This golden pheasant is really sweet, and it tastes better than previous years!"

Meiniang smiled and said thank you, picked up the chopsticks bluntly, and turned her eyes to Xu Junya who had been silent all the time. Xu Junya showed her a grateful smile, and Meiniang hurriedly looked away. She knew that the pheasant was delicious. She didn't fully believe in nourishing and nourishing people, but she still asked Mama Cai to leave some chicken soup for Ru Lan, and gave her a taste to change the taste.

The grandparents and grandchildren had enough to eat and drink, Zhuang Yulan was in a good mood, and started tea ceremony again, Mei Niang thought about sitting for a long time, a little depressed, Xu Junying and the old lady talked about the illness of Cousin Zheng in Qiuhuayuan, saying that she was originally a It was only after walking to the east courtyard early in the morning that it became like that. It's time to go and see her.

The old lady's face darkened slightly, and she said: "It's nothing to do with the east courtyard! It must be because she got up too early. In spring, all kinds of flowers and trees sprouted in the garden, and the shadows were faint. The sky was not bright in the morning, and the fog and humidity Seriously, I do have an evil disease myself. Once such a disease occurs in spring, it is easy to pass on to others, alas! Your mother does not know how to teach this child... It is also because he has learned few rules! You You don't need to look at it, just ask Mei Niang to pass on my words: send it back tomorrow, staying in our house is not an option, if anything happens, it will break the Xu family's feng shui, and let the sickness spread , wouldn't the whole family be tired?"

Xu Junying said: "Meiniang is a daughter-in-law, I'm afraid she can't be called the eldest wife, grandson should go too!"

The old lady thought about it for a while, then nodded her head in agreement, still not at ease: "Leave if it makes sense, don't sit there for too long! After she leaves tomorrow, I can teach someone to help the Qiuhuayuan get rid of the filth!"

Seeing that she could leave, Mei Niang breathed a sigh of relief, stood up together with Xu Junying, saluted and bid farewell, and walked out of the upper room, knowing that Zhuang Yulan was going to be sent to the corridor, she was too lazy to look behind, and beckoned for Cuixi Cuisi to follow without looking back He walked forward without hesitation, walked ten steps away, and said to Cuixi who was holding a lantern at the side: "Master Hou said that we are going to Qiuhuayuan, so let's go that way. Let's leave as soon as possible while they are talking. If you don't want him to follow, everyone will be uncomfortable!"

Cuixi responded, and said, "Grandma, be careful where you step!"

Mei Niang turned her head to look at Cui Si: "Cui Si, don't be in a hurry, don't step on my skirt..."

Her eyes widened and she almost tripped. Xu Junying stretched out his hand to help her, and said, "Cuisi is behind, I've been following, and I didn't see you feeling uncomfortable!"

Mei Niang stood up and said embarrassedly: "I don't mean anything else, I just want to say that you are going too fast, I'm afraid we won't catch up!"

Xu Junying smiled: "I can also walk very slowly, you can walk whenever you want!"

Mei Niang fell silent, this guy walked so lightly that she thought it was Cui Si, but Cui Si was usually very clever, why did she become a gourd today?No reminder.

When they arrived at Qiuhuayuan, Meiniang couldn't see Heng'er, and the eldest wife didn't need them to bother. Although she loved her niece, she didn't dare to disrespect the old lady's words. Heng'er, the nanny, and Xia Lian were arranged to sleep in the small courtyard on the left side, far away from the main courtyard. She waited to see and feed Zheng Meiyu and drink the medicine again, and she also wanted to go over there to accompany Heng'er. .

Just let Mei Niang make arrangements tomorrow, take care of all kinds of items, pack more good medicinal materials, inform the doctor who has paid a deposit, and go to the Zheng family's manor outside the city to do acupuncture every day, and send the cousin home , Tell the uncle that after the cousin recovers from illness, he will pick it up again.

Meiniang agreed one by one, she couldn't see Heng'er, she had nothing to say to Mrs. Zheng, Xu Junying didn't even mention to go into the room to see her cousin, Meiniang took her leave, and he followed suit and came out.

After the two of them walked back to Tsinghua University, Xu Junying saw that Mei Niang just kept her head down and walked all the way without saying a word, knowing that she didn't rest well last night, she must be very sleepy at this time, so she didn't say anything, and told Cui Cui Xi Cuisi helped the grandma wash and rest, and went to the east courtyard by herself.

Mei Niang was indeed very tired. As soon as Xu Junying walked into the Moon Cave Gate, she turned around and went back to her room. She took off her hairpins and jewels, went into the inner room to wash, took off her outer robe, climbed onto the bed, lay down and closed her eyes. No matter how bad her mood was, It can't affect sleep, sleepiness hits, and I fall into dreamland.

The next day, Meiniang was busy all morning, and when it was almost noon, she was going to see Rulan, but Xu Junying came back early, and still asked Cui Lian to go to Ziyun Hall to invite her back to Tsinghua University for lunch. Wondering, what happened to him?Becoming weird, very abnormal.

Came back and had lunch with Xu Junying, sat idle and had nothing to talk about, Mei Niang was sitting on the couch flipping a book, Xu Junying was sitting on the other side, and suddenly said: "We will have a guest soon."

Mei Niang looked up at him: "Your guest?"

Xu Junying said, "It's Zhang Jingyun and Lingxuzi."

Mei Niang was startled: "What are they doing here?"

"Come and see you," Xu Junying smiled forcedly: "They are my friends, but they came to the mansion today to know if you are well! Do you think they are going too far? Or did you tell them? What, make them think that I will harm you?"

Mei Niang hurriedly shook her head: "No! I didn't say anything to them. I'm not a child, so I know the importance... I run Cyclamen, and Zhang Jingyun and Lingxuzi often come here. I just told them that I like doing business and want to have my own business. Career, in this way, I can justifiably support my family. They are not ordinary people, and they don’t look at me from a worldly perspective. They understand and promise not to tell you about it. Anyway, I wear a mask when I go out. They think I am Cen Meimei, not Mrs. Xu Junying Qin Meiniang. The first time you helped me, it was because of your face. Zhang Jingyun gave me a mask to prevent King Qi from recognizing me and disturbing our lives. I asked him first... The day before yesterday at Cyclamen , King Qi told me about the old lady's marriage proposal, perhaps because you recognized me and couldn't tolerate me doing business secretly, and because I was about to marry another, I was afraid that you would dislike my old wife and use family law to me. Out of concern for my friends, I came here to take a look.”

Xu Junying looked at her with a bitter smile: "They...don't trust me anymore! You used to...in your country, can you be friends with strange men like this?"

Mei Niang nodded: "The country I live in is very enlightened. Boys and girls have studied and read in the same college since they were young, and they have become classmates and friends. When they grow up, when they reach the age of marriage, they must treat friends of the opposite sex with caution. When a woman proposes marriage, of course, a courageous woman can also propose to the man she loves in turn—this kind of thing is very rare, after all, there are not many courageous women. If the proposal is allowed, they will become husband and wife, and they will be a couple for life , don't bully each other, don't abandon each other, grow old forever; if the marriage proposal is rejected, you have to find another mate, don't complain!"

As Mei Niang spoke, she sighed softly. This summary is somewhat idealistic, so it should be regarded as a self-edited textbook, and it should be used to teach the ancients.

　Ah Rou's work has started to be busy, so I can't make another update from today, I will add another update on the weekend, please understand. . . . . .
