Foster son and husband

Chapter 83
Mei Niang hid from King Qi, flashed into an empty room, heard King Qi running to the backyard, hurried out, and went up to her rest room through the special passage stairs, and then took a breath: "What are you doing, King Qi?" Chase?Could it be that Zhang Jingyun made a mistake, he can take all men and women?He was wearing a mask, dressed like a normal daughter, and he didn't have sky-opening eyes or see-through eyes. How could he tell that it was Qin Er from that day?
Anyway, with him here, it's not safe here, so let's go!
He took Cuixi Cuisi downstairs, got into the carriage, and told Lin Amao to go to Qin's house in the west of the city to visit his mother, brother Qin Boqing and sister-in-law Feng Shi.

The small courtyard of the Qin family was still peaceful and warm. Mrs. Qin couldn't help being overjoyed when she saw her daughter, and looked behind Meiniang. With so many entourages in the Houfu, a layer of loss and worry appeared on his face.

Mei Niang didn't explain anything to Mrs. Qin, she just stepped forward to support her and walked a few steps, and expressed her surprise that the gout on her leg healed so quickly. Mrs. Qin patted her hand lovingly and smiled. He said: Thanks to Mr. Zhang, your brother is also well, and your sister-in-law is healthy and healthy!My son, you still have an idea. If we wait for those doctors to come and treat us, our family, young and old, will not be able to get better!

Qin Boqing and Feng Shi came out to greet her. Meiniang saw that her brother was recovering well and her sister-in-law's belly seemed to grow a bit, so she was very happy. The whole family sat together, drank tea and talked, very happy.Qin Boqing said that he had been to the Hou's mansion on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, and gave Heng'er some festive gifts. The butler then said that the Hou was out to pay New Year's greetings. It was the fourth master Junting and the sixth master Junxuan who came out to talk. They wanted to see Meiniang. However, Junxuan took him to a gathering of scribes and met many famous people.

Qin Boqing said with some shame: "In the name of Lord Marquis and my sister, I have won the support of many people. Nowadays, every time there are gatherings of scholars to discuss essay topics, or gatherings where famous teachers come to teach, some people will remember to give me a copy." Invitation by post, I met two people at the poetry meeting yesterday, one is Ding Guogong's clan brother, the other is An Yuanhou's brother-in-law, they only say that their sister-in-law or sister is on good terms with my sister, and they must exchange posts with me , to facilitate future contacts..."

Mei Niang said: "Brother only associates with people according to his own will. The children of these powerful families may not all be snobbish, and many of them are sincere people. What kind of character and talent is there for my brother? Except that our family is poor, where can I get married?" Are you not as good as others? Don’t belittle yourself. If you communicate with others sincerely, you will always gain true friendship.”

Qin Boqing smiled and raised his hand to tap her forehead: "You are imitating your father's tone and teaching your brother!"

Mei Niang turned her head away, and said with a smile: "Of course I want to imitate my father, I still have the same mood as my father, waiting for the moment when my brother wins the toad palace!"

Qin Boqing's complexion changed, he looked at Mrs. Qin, then at Feng Shi sitting beside him, and said to Mei Niang seriously:
"I will definitely go all out, Jinshi and rank is certain!"

Mrs. Qin said with a tearful smile, "My son will do his best!"

Mei Niang said: "Brother, you don't need to be too nervous. You don't have to read books every night until the third shift. Ten years of hard study is almost enough. It's okay to eat, drink and have fun. There is a limit to relaxation, but don't be too nervous. Conserve your energy and strength until you take the exam." That's when you can play well!"

Qin Boqing said with a smile: "It makes sense, let me listen to you!"

The family laughed and chatted for a while, Feng ordered the kitchen to prepare lunch, but Mei Niang refused to eat it. She stayed out for too long, fearing that if Xu Junying would find out, she ignored her mother and brother-in-law's repeated attempts to keep her. There is something to deal with in the mansion, so I hurriedly said goodbye and left.

Lin Amao drove the car, left the street in the west of the city, and turned into another street. At noon, there were a lot of cars and horses on the street. The pedestrians did not obey the traffic rules and crossed the street at will. The carriage stopped and went, which was very annoying.Mei Niang opened the curtains, and saw a group of people approaching, surrounded by a car, and turned into a wide alleyway on the left, but no one was walking in that alleyway, the car drove in, unimpeded, and walked very fast.Mei Niang hurriedly called Lin Amao: "What kind of road is that? Why is no one going there, can we go around too?"

Lin Amao smiled: "Girl, after entering that alleyway, we will go to Duke Dingguo's mansion, we dare not enter indiscriminately!"

It turns out that Dingguo's mansion is in this place!Mei Niang couldn't help but glanced at that alleyway: Dingguo Gongsun Liduan, the elder brother of Empress Sun Huiyun, Dingguogong's wife Pang Zi, invited her to Dingguogong's mansion, maybe someday, she really wants to go Take a walk on this alleyway.

He was slowly driving the car away, but he didn't expect a brown-red horse to rush out of the side stab and hit Mei Niang's carriage. Everyone in the car didn't pay attention. You pressed me, I bumped into you, screaming in pain, a young man in a red robe on a brown red horse with a fat head and big ears, he was fine, but he pointed at Lin Amao who got up from the ground with a whip Curse:

"Blind your dog eyes! If you dare to block the way of the master, if you hurt the red shadow of the master, you will not be able to pay for your life!"

Lin Amao patted the dust on his body, and muttered dissatisfiedly: "What red shadow and white shadow? It's because you didn't walk well and ran into someone with a horse. If you hurt my girl, you can't afford it!"

"What are you talking about? You dog! How dare you speak harshly after bumping into your grandfather!"

The fat man in red was furious, he whipped his whip, Lin Amao was beaten, and screamed in pain, Cuixi's head was smashed in the car, and there was a little blood, Meiniang asked Cuisi to bandage her, and she lifted the curtain and went out. Cuisi couldn't stop her, Meiniang was already outside the car, the fat man in red saw her, he kept whipping his whip towards Meiniang's head, Meiniang squatted down to dodge, grabbed the tail of the whip with both hands, With a pull, she moved quickly, the fat boy in red was caught off guard, the whip was released from his hand, and was snatched away by Meiniang, with two cracks of the whip, the fat boy was hit by the whip twice, screaming in pain, jumping into a rage, Pointing at Mei Niang, he shouted angrily:

"Where did you come from, this barbaric woman? How dare you beat your grandfather! Come, catch me, if I don't peel your skin, I won't be named Zhang!"

Mei Niang saw many people gathered around, she hurriedly said to the car: "You two, don't come out, it will be seen by others. Don't be afraid, I can handle it!"

Lin Amao stood in front of Mei Niang, looked at the group of servants who were rushing like wolves and tigers, and said timidly: "Girl, what should we do? There are so many of them?"

Mei Niang said: "Amao, don't be afraid, get out of the way!"

He raised his finger to the servants and said, "Look who dares to move? One who is not afraid of death, the girl will crush your head!"

The fat man in red touched the part of his body that was pumped. Apart from some pain, there seemed to be no bleeding, so he breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Meiniang sideways, and pointed her with his hand and said:

"You are a delicate little girl, you are so ruthless, everyone in the street is watching, who will dare to marry you in the future? Why don't you go back to the mansion with your fourth master, and take good care of you, the glory and wealth are indispensable!"

Mei Niang gave a strange laugh: "With your appearance, the girl can't fall asleep at night after seeing it more than once! There are a lot of hens and ducks in the street market, coax one of you back to be a wife!"

The onlookers burst into laughter, and the fat man in red shook his hands and scolded the servant:

"What are you waiting for? Drag the little bitch down!"

Mei Niang didn't dare to fight head-on with them. There were seven or eight servants, all of them were strong. Although she felt that she had a little strength, she was not sure that she could deal with so many men at once.

"Wait!" Mei Niang shouted.

The fat boy in red sneered: "You know you're afraid? It's too late to tell you! Let's see how you can jump out of Grandpa's palm today, let's do it!"

Mei Niang slapped her horsewhip and said, "If you dare to touch one of my fingers, I will have your head chopped off, believe it or not?"

The fat boy in red yelled angrily: "Little ones, fuck me!"

Mei Niang had seen a few servants of Dingguo's mansion wearing blue clothes watching the fun at the entrance of the alley on the left hand side. A person appeared next to her, which startled her, and she couldn't help but nervously glanced at the curtain of the car, really afraid that those two girls would run out at this time.

It was Bai Zhan who walked forward with a sullen face and pushed the servants away, pointed at them and said: "Let this girl go, who dares to stop her, ask the master's fist!"

The fat young man immediately cursed loudly: "Where did this brat come from again? Hit me!"

"Zhang Si, don't be rude!"

The familiar voice made Mei Niang lower her head and bite her lips tightly.

Xu Junying walked over from the other side of the car, followed by Bao Ju, leading three strong horses, obviously the master and servant had just come down from the court hall, passing by here, happened to see Mei Niang in a mask arguing with someone.

When Meiniang seized the whip and pulled Zhang Si back, Xu Junying had already approached, and he couldn't help being startled when he glanced at it. The girl was dressed as a girl, but her body and stature were too similar to Meiniang's. Looking closely at her face, Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief, a very ordinary and delicate girl, totally out of line with Meiniang.

Unable to understand Zhang Si's madness, he signaled Bai Zhan to step forward to prevent the girl from being disadvantaged, but the girl started to scold Evil Younger, and he, Bao Ju, and Bai Zhan were stunned: How could they be so similar?There are people who look alike in the world, but their voices can be so identical, it's incredible!

The three masters and servants stood aside, watching Mei Niang and Zhang Si quarrel, their clear and beautiful voices sneered and scolded Zhang Si mercilessly, while Xu Junying stared at the girl's face in bewilderment. Thinking of this weak but sturdy chivalrous girl in front of him and the elegant, gentle and graceful grandma Qin Meiniang, he thought of changing appearances, masks, etc., but is that possible?Qin Meiniang, pampered, fell down at the touch of a touch, she is a bit strong-hearted, she wants to be a housekeeper, but she will feel dizzy when the wind blows, and she can't go to Ziyun Hall on leave, how can she have the confidence to go out alone without a entourage?According to her character of wanting face and greedy for vanity, how could she give up the guard of honor of Madam Hou and wander around the city in this kind of civilian carriage?She definitely doesn't have that skill, that strength to fight against the evil young man!

When Zhang Si's servants were about to make a move, Bai Zhan stepped forward to stop him. Zhang Si saw Xu Junying, so he had to slip off his horse and cupped his hands: "I've seen Wei Yuanhou!"

Xu Junying frowned and looked at him: "Why don't you make progress? The last time I spared you, this is the second time, and the third time, I will not come to talk to you! Your elder brother is in Beijing recently, you don't care The reputation of the Yasukuni Mansion, at least give him some face, so as not to cause trouble!"

Zhang Si snorted: "He himself said that he is not from the Jingguo Mansion, he doesn't recognize me, and I don't recognize him either!"

Xu Junying said: "He is not from the Duke Jing's mansion, why are you only ranked fourth? Don't say anything out of order, go back to the mansion, honestly face the wall and think about the past, I will tell the Duke tomorrow, otherwise, you will be here today." Can't escape a whip!"

Zhang Si's fat face twitched, he stared at Xu Junying, then turned his head to stare at Meiniang viciously, and finally left without saying anything, taking a few servants with him.

Seeing him walking away, Xu Junying turned her head and said to Mei Niang: "Where does the girl live? If the journey is still far away, I can send you back. If you go out in the future, at least go with your family. If you fight recklessly with him, you will suffer!"

Mei Niang really wanted to ask him: What should I do then?You will suffer if you fight recklessly, but you will not suffer if you show weakness?
In the end, he didn't dare to talk to him, but pretended not to understand etiquette, lowered his head, and said: "Thank you, sir, for making the rescue! The little girl is used to traveling alone, with a coachman accompanying her, so she is fine, so don't bother the master! "

After speaking, he folded back into the carriage, took a long breath, and saw the two girls Cuixi and Cuisi tightly hugging each other, their faces turned blue, and cold sweat broke out on their foreheads, and they knew that they had already seen it through the crack of the curtain. Xu Junying, otherwise, according to their temperament, they would have ran out to protect themselves.

Xu Junying stood at the same spot, watching Lin Amao drive away, and then took Baoju and Baizhan to Xianke, King Qi's banquet, naturally he was waiting in Weiyuan.
