Chapter 101 Wanting to be Alone
Meng Meijing didn’t mean that she didn’t want to recognize the other Wu family, but she was more willing to get close to the Zeng family than the Wu family. Water flows to lower places, and people go to higher places. She didn't think she had done anything wrong.
Thinking like this in her heart, but when Wu asked, she shook her head and denied, "What did mother say?"
Thinking of how ugly her mother looked just now, she added: "Okay, okay, mother doesn't want her daughter to get close to Meng Liangchen's mother-in-law, so her daughter won't go. Mother, don't think too much, it's important to take care of yourself."
However, this sentence Meng Meili added was not It didn't comfort Wu's heart.
Mrs. Wu was pleased with Meng Meili's cleverness, but also secretly saddened by the cold reality of Meng Meili's blood relationship. After letting Meng Meili return to Wanfei Courtyard, she sat still until the lights were turned off at night, but she did not recover.
No one involved in the incident about Meng Shisan whipping Lu Luo had any intention of spreading it to the outside world. However, Lu Pingting refused to muddy the waters. Even though she was grounded, she still asked Su Cui to find ways to bring the matter to light. Passed out.
Some days have passed since the Peach Blossom Banquet. The twin sisters of the Zeng family did not deliver the promised rabbit lanterns to the Meng Mansion, so they had other plans.
Zeng Zhongqi also followed the wishes of his two sisters and waited patiently. However, he heard that Meng Shisan was hit by a cart in the street two days ago, and later heard that the two sisters were in Guizhou. In the women's circle, there were rumors about Meng Shisan's brutal and violent behavior, and he couldn't hold it back anymore.
Fang Yu came to the door at dusk today carrying a rabbit lantern.
Both sisters knew this before coming, and told him that he must have something to say, and he nodded in agreement, promising not to scare the sickly and delicate Cousin Meng.
The rabbit lantern was delivered, and after a few rounds of pleasantries, and two bowls of tea, he still didn’t find a chance to be alone with Cousin Meng, so that he could ask the questions he wanted to ask during this trip. Speak up.
Zeng Chongqi sat in the chair, feeling a little anxious, fearing that before the purpose of the trip was mentioned, Meng Renping would serve tea to see off the guests, and Cousin Meng would go back to the backyard, making this trip in vain.
In fact, the two sisters had already told him that it was more appropriate for them to ask Cousin Meng than for him to ask. However, when he thought of the soft and soft Cousin Meng, he was finally willing to get close to the Zeng family. But he didn't come to see him, and he felt very uncomfortable, so he had to come anyway to send the rabbit lantern that his second uncle had sent all the way back to the capital.
Thinking back and forth in his thoughts, the anxious look on his face did not diminish, but he became even more anxious to know if Cousin Meng had been harmed.
As a cousin, you should protect your lost cousin!
As for Ji Kuan, he had been completely ignored by Zeng Zhongqi.
Meng Shisan noticed that Zeng Zhongqi was hesitant to speak, and thought that this cousin Zeng probably had something to say to her in private. Such an eldest cousin and Mr. Ji would be a bit in the way. Son.
Then she looked at Meng Renping. She didn’t say anything, she just stared.
Meng Renping was picking up the third bowl of tea that was brewed. When he saw this, his hand paused, then he lifted the tea lid, brought the tea bowl to his nose and smelled it. He wanted to drink but his eyes were still there. Really unable to drink, he put the tea bowl back on the table and asked gently: "I guess Mr. Zeng hasn't eaten yet. How about having dinner at home?"
Zeng Zhongqi came directly to Meng's Mansion after getting off duty. He was indeed empty. Although he was not hungry, he did not want to refuse Meng Renping's offer of food. If he stayed a little longer, he would have more opportunities to be alone with Cousin Meng, so he happily The ground should fall.
Ji Kuan was a little unhappy, but he was not the master. Even if he was dissatisfied, he could only vent his anger to Meng Renping in private. At the moment, he could only hold it in, thinking that it would be fine if he left the meal. Anyway, he just stared at her the whole time. With him here, Zeng Zhongqi couldn't even think of sweet words to Miss Meng!
He must resolutely defend the rights and interests of His Highness. Unexpectedly, as soon as he clenched his fists, Ji Kuan was forcibly pulled out of his seat by Meng Renping who suddenly stood up. He refused to leave: "What are you doing?"
"Come with me to the big kitchen. Take a look and find some of your favorite dishes." Meng Renping made it up casually.
"I'm not going, and I'm not coming back for the first time. Not to mention the few dishes I like to eat, which are the porridge and snacks I like to eat. The chefs in your house all know about it, so there's no need for me to go." Ji Kuanyan After that, I have to sit down again.
Since Meng Renping had been glanced at by Meng Shisan and successfully received the eldest sister's intention, he had to resolutely carry out: "If you don't want to go, you have to go, otherwise you will go home."< br>
Ji Kuan was stunned, and then realized, He looked from Meng Shisan to Zeng Chongqi in disbelief, and then looked back at Meng Renping's face. He angrily whispered in his best friend's ear: "Be careful, I'll tell your highness!"
Meng Renping's The answer was to pull Ji Kuan out of Qingmingtang with a strong tug.
Ji Kuan competed in martial arts, and Meng Renping was only a weak scholar. If they were really trying to drag each other down, Meng Renping would definitely be the loser.
However, Ji Kuan knew very well that this was the Meng Mansion, not his Ji Mansion. Miss Meng was Chi Nan's sister, not his sister. He couldn't influence or stop Chi Nan's decision. More importantly, Miss Meng couldn't see it. He did not miss Chi Nan's glance, knowing that this was Miss Meng's intention.
As for Chi Nan, even Miss Meng’s smile can make Chi Nan enjoy being a brother for two or three days. If he insists on not leaving, Chi Nan will not be able to beat him, but after thinking about it, There are many ways to fix him in a roundabout way, but it's totally possible.
In the days when we were both reading to His Highness, this kind of thing happened more than once or twice. Every time, he had to suffer a lot, and he still couldn't tell the pain, so His Highness laughed at him in vain.
Nowadays, Chi Nanji may become His Highness's eldest brother-in-law. During the few moments when he was being dragged, he weighed the pros and cons and felt that even if he went to His Highness to complain, Chi Nan would not be able to get a good deal. In the end, he couldn't find any favors and just went with the flow.
Ji Kuan was pulled away by Meng Renping and his face was full of displeasure. When Meng Renping let go of his hand outside the hall, he snorted heavily to show his dissatisfaction. .
Meng Renping pretended not to hear anything and ordered Gao Yuan: "You stay outside the hall and listen carefully to what's going on in the hall. If something goes wrong, you must protect the eldest lady."
"Nuo." Gao Yuan accepted the order and silently felt that his young master was overly worried. Is the eldest lady the master who could suffer a loss? Even Uncle Lu Xiaoguo could only get beaten in front of the eldest lady. How could eldest son Zeng bully the eldest lady?
Could this be a joke?
There are also Baozhu waiting in the hall. They all said privately that the Baozhu next to the eldest lady has sharp teeth and a strong protector. If the eldest master Zeng dares to do anything random, just one Baozhu can teach him. Mr. Zeng is good-looking.
Young master, if you really care, you will be in trouble.
Meng Renping didn't know what Gao Yuan was thinking, so after saying that, he went to the big kitchen without looking sideways.
No matter what Zeng Zhongqi wanted to say privately to his eldest sister when he came over today, visitors are always guests, good wine and good food are always served, and you must not make people feel neglectful.
