Chapter 181 Be Prepared
"After she finishes her meal, find a chance to be alone and tell her that I will wait for her here and ask her if it is convenient for her to come." Cui Yu explained.
Shopkeeper Tong promised.
With nothing to do, he quickly exited Wangbei Tower.
When he returned to the Flower Pavilion, the waiter told him that all the evening food had been brought upstairs, and Miss Meng and three other ladies were eating in the middle room.
Shopkeeper Tong didn't dare to disturb him, and planned to wait until Meng Shisan had finished his meal before he knocked on the door.
Four people sat around the dining table, talking while eating.
Baozhu received Meng Shisan’s nod, and gathered the flowers, branches and pear white together. Another small table was set up beside it, and the four of them gathered around to share the evening meal.
The atmosphere is very harmonious.
Zeng Chongrong held it in for a long time, and finally couldn't help but ask: "Yaoyao, why did you avoid Mrs. Qiao's apology gift?"
"She has such frivolous calculations, how can I do what she wants." Meng Shisan was not sure what Mrs. Qiao Er would do next, and it was hard to say too fully. "In short, be prepared. If she As long as the finger of blame is not pointed at me, forget it. If you want to make a big fuss out of me, , but that's not possible."
The words were actually very clear. Dong Linglong, who also didn't understand much, nodded: "This makes sense."
" What's the point?" Zeng Chongrong was confused, "She asked Miss Xi to ask. After a while, there was no movement. At this time, she and Mr. Qiao returned to the city with Qiao Sang's body. Miss Xi had already left the manor and returned to the house after seeing her. She didn't see that she had any plans. Na?”
“Don’t think about anything, just It's really hard for your brain to make you think like this. Eat quickly and have a good meal." Zeng Chongjin always knew that his sister was too simple, not to mention scheming, but a little more complicated. Things, my sister's mind will be unable to turn around.
Meng Shisan and Dong Linglong were amused at the same time.
Zeng Chongrong was dissatisfied that his sister had harmed him like this. He had clearly known that he was caring about her face in front of Dong Linglong, but now that they had a meal together, his sister had forgotten about it.
Of course she doesn't care either.
She pouted and exposed her shortcomings: "Sister also knows that I am stupid, why don't you give me an answer? If I can't figure it out now, I will definitely be in trouble when I go back to the Cheng family. I have to keep thinking about it, maybe tonight I won’t have a good night’s sleep!”
“Fourth cousin is right, there is really no need to think about Mrs. Qiao Er’s plans. Anyway, she won’t succeed with me.” Meng Shisan. Put a piece of green into Zeng Chongrong's bowl Cai, "But there's no guarantee that something will happen if she returns to the city and gets together with Mr. Qiao. So right now, it's useless to think about it, and it's all in vain. You see, I don't want to."
“Are you Do you think so? You’ve thought about it more and more, and you’re already confident!” Zeng Chongrong said four thoughts in one breath, feeling a little angry, but he soon lost his temper, “Well, I’m still going to do it! Listen to mother.”
Meng Shisan was very curious about what Mr. Hu said: "What did auntie say to you?" "Mother said, I'm just like this. Sometimes some people have things that they don't understand and they don't think about it. If they don't think about it, they don't think about it. Worry, live a life without worries, a life without worries is the best!" Zeng Chongrong said proudly, she also felt that this was the best for herself!
Zeng Chongjin smiled and said nothing, looking at Zeng Chongrong with eyes full of love.
Dong Linglong suddenly thought of Dong Wushuang, and then looked at the way the Zeng sisters got along, and suddenly felt that her way of getting along with her sister seemed completely different from theirs.
"My eldest aunt has great wisdom, and my fifth cousin is also very blessed." When Meng Shisan met Hu for the first time, she felt that her eldest aunt was very kind. She couldn't explain why she was so good. , I just feel friendly, and I am instantly closer to my maternal ancestors who have never been in contact with each other. It seems that the blanks of so many years have been filled in an instant. The family affection that is integrated into the blood and nature, after a few ordinary homely words , it was compensated.
At this moment, it made her somewhat clear: "My uncle can marry my aunt as a good wife, and you can have your aunt as a good mother. You are all blessed."
Zeng Chongrong was very proud: "That's right!"
Zeng Chongjin also said seriously: "I am very lucky to be my mother's daughter in this life."
Dong Linglong thought Looking at his mother Miao, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "My mother came from a scholarly family in Jinling. Although it has declined, when she married my father, she still married down. My father was born in poverty, and it was my mother who brought a rich dowry. Give birth to children for my father, take care of his daily life, and serve my parents-in-law. My father does not have to worry about everything, so that my father can study with peace of mind. Scientific examination. Later, my father was admitted to the imperial examination and entered the officialdom. My mother was also very careful in planning for my father's future. My father often told us that without my mother's hard work, he would not be as successful as he is now in his hometown in Shanxi. Enjoy your life in peace, and don’t have the worries of food and clothing we have now.”
Meng Shisan. Listening, she couldn't help but think of the intense gaze she felt when she went to Dong Mansion to attend Dong Wushuang's birthday party. Although it had not been long ago, her current friendship with Dong Linglong was no longer comparable to that time. She couldn't help but ask directly. Said: "Yaya, when I was eating your sister's birthday banquet, did your mother secretly look at me?"
Zeng Chongjin and Zeng Chongrong immediately raised their eyes from the food and stared at Dong Linglong.
Mentioning this, Dong Linglong's expression was slightly uncomfortable, and she looked awkwardly at the Zeng sisters who were all staring at her. She did not deny it: "Yes... But Yaoyao doesn't have to think too much, my mother I just want to see you before."
"Is there another reason?" Meng Shisan believed that Dong Linglong would not lie to her, but her intuition told her that there must be something else. Qiankun.
Dong Linglong thought of Dong Kuan, and thought that although her eldest brother was a bit unconventional, he was very reliable most of the time. She felt that if his eldest brother really fell in love with Meng Shisan, he would marry Meng Shisan. The Dong Family Gate was the best, and she approved of it with both hands and feet.
However, her mother disagreed.
They had already discussed it with their eldest brother, saying that regardless of family status, the Dong family's daughter-in-law could enter the Dong family as long as they were of pure origin, upright moral character, and virtuous. However, no matter how good the eldest daughter of the Meng family was, she would never be able to do so.
There are two reasons for this.
Firstly, the Meng Mansion is a family outside the East Palace. The Dong family is not affiliated with the East Palace and must not be related to the East Palace. The glory of her Dong family only depends on the descendants of the Dong family and does not rely on the unpredictable fortune and disaster. merit.
Secondly, Yaoyao was frail and sick since childhood. Even when he grew up to this year, he was still a medicine man who got sick easily at the slightest sign of trouble. The eldest brother of the Dong family had a single seedling. Although he was not his mother’s biological child, he was He was raised by his mother from an early age, and the Dong family must not be cut off from the eldest brother's generation.
Although the eldest brother later revealed the truth to his mother, saying that the eldest brother would notice Yaoyao was actually entrusted by others.
