In the suddenly silent dining room, only Gongsun Yingjiang was drinking soup calmly. She was not surprised by the scene that just happened. She secretly sighed in her heart: "Aunt Wu is so young and naive! She is so naive! Little uncle Is he the kind of person who really refuses to eat when you ask him not to, and is a little aggrieved at most? Not only is he not, he is also the kind of person who wants to eat more the more you tell him not to eat!"
"This is also in front of my aunt. Aunt Wu is a child, and my uncle is particularly restrained!"
"Just like when I encountered a similar thing on the island before, my uncle just flipped the table. If he doesn't eat, no one will eat!!!"
"It turned out that what the little uncle told was the truth. He lived on Tortoiseshell Island since he was a child. When the situation was not very good in his early years, he was so hungry that he could only eat from the sea to get some fish and shrimp to satisfy his hunger. Later he took charge of Wuyi Camp,' The words "Zong Heng Hai" sound majestic, but in fact, they go to sea for many years, and they are often responsible for conquest missions. They have to load supplies on the ship, and they also need to consider that the speed of the ship cannot be fully loaded during the pursuit, so they need to catch some temporary supplies from the sea. It’s also normal. So he’s almost vomiting after eating fish and shrimp, and he’s more interested in the meat of chickens, ducks, geese, cattle, sheep and other livestock... "
"If Aunt Wu hadn't repeatedly refused to let him eat it, there's a good chance he'd put a piece of fish in it and wouldn't have touched it!"
"This is to give Aunt Wu face, otherwise he wouldn't even bother to look at the grilled fish..."
"But Aunt Wu warned him again and again... How can he not even leave soup to Aunt Wu?!"
Seeing Sheng Weiwu with tears welling up in her eyes, Gongsun Yingjiang covered his eyes with his hands and sighed secretly, "Poor Aunt Wu!"
"What are you doing?!" The blow was so sudden and terrifying that Sheng Weiwu was stunned!
Fortunately, she was not facing Sheng Suihe alone at this moment!
After Sheng Weiqiao was stunned for a moment, he stood up and angrily rebuked Sheng Suihe for his shameless behavior, "Eighth sister is young, and her occasional willful behavior is understandable. Even if you want to eat, at least leave some for her! Take them all! Go, what do you mean?!"
"Good girl, I don't want to eat it at all!" Sheng Suihe picked up the handkerchief, wiped the corners of his mouth slowly, and smiled, "I said I don't like to eat fish! If the eighth sister hadn't been quick to protect the food, I was just thinking Said that I am not interested in this grilled fish and don’t want to eat a bite..."
Seeing the anger on Sheng Weiqiao's face, his smile became brighter, "But I think I need to maintain my dignity as the eldest brother!"
These two sisters really don't belong to the same family, right
Both of them think I'm easy to bully
It's okay for her sister to bully me. After all, I'm trying to make a move on her... Oh no, I have an appointment with her biological father to take good care of her, so I have to be careful.
This little nine-year-old girl dares to point fingers at me? !
I don't care about young girls, nor do I have the custom of "respecting the elderly and loving the young" on shore, so why should I give her the same treatment as a good girl
What's more, this bastard little girl's style, if I don't give her some color to see, she really thinks that I am made of dough, maybe she will cause some trouble in the future!
"..." Sheng Weiqiao was silent. She deliberately favored her sister, and she really felt that even if Sheng Suihe wanted to save his face, he shouldn't have used such an undignified method. However, thinking of Sheng Wei's naked rejection just now, she felt a little unbearable: If I were standing in Sheng Suihe's position, I would have cried a long time ago if I encountered the situation just now, right
Just when she was in trouble, Sheng Weiwu finally came to her senses and cried "Wow!"
Listening to his sister's cries, Sheng Weiqiao immediately threw away his unbearable feelings, clapped his teeth, stood up and rolled up his sleeves: "Eighth sister, don't be sad, I will help you beat him up to vent your anger!!! "
No matter how many reasons this Sleeping Crane has for bullying a child, the key is that this child is still his cousin who has always been on the same page with him since he was a child. Sheng Weiqiao will never tolerate it! ! !
While everything was going on in the Sheng family's house, Meng Guiyu, who had finished dinner, rinsed his mouth, drank some tea, and went to the study to practice calligraphy in Uncle Chongxin's house a few streets away, quietly Walk into the small flower hall where the brothers and sisters often discuss matters.
It was already dark by this time, but not a single lamp was lit inside.
When Meng Guiyu opened the door, the light of the angry wind lantern hanging in the corridor outside shone in. From the outline of the shadows, two shaky figures kneeling were none other than Meng Gui who had been begging for his marriage before. Han and Meng Guihuan.
...Originally only Meng Guihan swore that Meng Guiyu would not agree with him and would not get up, but since Meng Guihuan knelt down with this seventh brother, he sincerely hoped that Meng Guiyu could think about him once, instead of thinking about them all the time. After Meng Guiyu walked away from these younger brothers and sisters, she also knelt down.
These two people are not usually in good health. As the saying goes, the poor are rich in literature and rich in martial arts. The fourth family of the Meng family was very depressed in their early years. The young Meng Guiyu and his younger brothers and sisters even lived a period of hungry and full meals. .
Naturally, there is no condition for them to practice martial arts to strengthen their bodies. Therefore, both Meng Guihuan and Meng Guihan are just ordinary people. They have been specially pampered in the past two years. From just now to now, they have been kneeling for more than an hour. Naturally, it is the end of a strong crossbow.
But after noticing Meng Guiyu's arrival, both brothers and sisters straightened their backs and tried their best to show that they would never give up!
"..." Meng Guiyu looked at them, feeling distressed and annoyed. After a long time, he finally sighed silently and said, "Get up! I promise you that I won't let my eldest aunt deliberately this time, okay?"
Seeing Meng Guihan and Meng Guihuan cheering in unison, he pinched his eyebrows and said, "However, you must also promise me: if I come in contact with Miss Sheng San and find that we are not attracted to each other, you are not allowed to make unreasonable troubles again. You want me to fight with auntie!"
Meng Guihan said hurriedly: "Brother Six, our main reason is that we don't want you to continue to be wronged. How can we force you to marry someone you don't like?"
Meng Guihuan said happily: "That's all for the future, Seventh Brother, now we have to hurry up. To sum it up - according to Sixth Brother's previous considerations, the Sheng family brothers and sisters will definitely come to express their thanks in the past two days! How can we Why don't you take this opportunity to try to get Brother Six to have a good chat with Miss Sheng San?"
"That's right!" Meng Guihan also perked up after hearing this!
Just as he spoke, Meng Guiyu, who walked up to him, knocked him on the head unceremoniously and snorted: "Now you go eat and wash up quickly. When you're done, ask your servants to rub your knees... We'll talk about other things tomorrow!" "
Early the next morning, Sheng Xiang sent a greeting message to Uncle Chongxin's Mansion. At this time, Meng Guiyu was at the Yamen. In the uncle's mansion were Meng Guihan and Meng Guihuan. They were very happy when they saw the post and immediately said that the uncle's mansion would be available at any time. , the Sheng brothers and sisters can come to our door anytime!
After Sheng Xiang left, Meng Guihuan said to Meng Guihan: "It is true that it is convenient at any time in our house, but Sixth Brother is responsible for the yamen's errands and can only come back every evening. Even if we can persuade Sixth Brother to take leave, One or two days, but Brother Qi, you can come to the Sheng family anytime you want. What if someone picks and chooses a day? You can’t let Brother Six take leave from now on and not go to the Yamen, right? Brother Six will definitely not agree. of."
"You really have the thoughts of a child!" Meng Guihan rolled his eyes at her and said, "Why do you need Sixth Brother to take leave and wait at home? The two Yamen are not very far away. When the Sheng family comes to the door any day, they can send someone to take care of them. Sixth Brother just needs to find him! Otherwise, we are not very familiar with him now. What if he comes, finishes the conversation, hands over the gift list and then leaves?"
He showed a cunning look and said, "But if Brother Six is not here when they come and they want to leave, we just assume that Brother Six is the one who makes the decision at home. If Brother Six is not at home, we dare not accept anything. We will treat them to tea and wait." Sixth Brother is back... After all this trouble, it's already dinner time, so it's natural to leave the meal, isn't this just holding people back?!"
Seeing that Meng Guihuan was stunned, he lectured her again, "Sixth brother and I are both men, and the tenth sister has left the government. Now the most suitable person in the family to associate with Miss Sheng San is you. In the future, you should restrain your temper and behave well." It’s better to be close to her! This way, if the eldest aunt wants to interfere with her, you can help Sixth Brother!"
Meng Guihuan said hurriedly: "Seventh brother, don't worry! Yesterday, before my sixth brother told me that my aunt recommended Miss Sheng San to him, I reconciled with Miss Sheng San! At that time, I just thought that we would switch to a university." The fifteenth mother and daughter found out about the aunt, so they couldn't offend anyone anymore! Now they know that Miss Sheng San is actually the aunt's chosen wife for Brother Six, and she will be our future sister-in-law. Why can't I get along with her? Isn't this causing trouble to Brother Six!"
"It's good that you know!" Meng Guihan was then satisfied and said solemnly, "With Sixth Brother's talent, if it weren't for the three of us dragging him down, how could we have been so careful and diligent in these years? We are not qualified enough to help. It’s okay if you don’t need to help Sixth Brother. If you still want to trouble Sixth Brother when you have nothing to do..."
His face darkened, and he glanced at Meng Guihuan warningly, "Sixth brother loves you, but I, seventh brother, will not give up with you!"
Meng Guihuan stomped her feet aggrievedly: "I told you that I am not an ignorant person! Next time I meet Miss Sheng San, I will definitely get along well with her and let her fully feel the friendship and harmony of our family!"
"It's not just about the next meeting." Meng Guihan snorted, "In the future, when someone comes through the door, you must also maintain respect for your sister-in-law!"
"After all, you and your sister-in-law don't get along. Isn't it Brother Six who is in trouble?"
"Sixth brother is worried about a lot of things outside. When he comes back, he has to mediate for you. Are you tired?"
"So remember this for me. From now on, unless my sister-in-law does something too much, you will have to endure the usual expressions and scoldings, and you can't help but cry in a corner where Brother Six can't see her! "
"After all, it is said that Miss Sheng San is the only legitimate daughter of her parents. She must be somewhat squeamish. She is no better than the porcelain who grew up like us, so we have to give in to her. … It’s not for her, it’s for Brother Six!”
"understand?!"
... The Sheng family did not know that Meng Guihan and Meng Guihuan already regarded Sheng Weiqiao as their sister-in-law. Meng Guihan even considered how this sister-in-law would get along with his brother-in-law and sister-in-law after entering the house. Sheng Xiang went back to report to Uncle Chongxin Since the house has been very convenient for receiving guests recently, Sheng Weiqiao said to Sheng Suihe: "It's better to return this kind of favor as soon as possible, or come over tomorrow?"
Sheng Suihe had no objection, so the matter was settled.
The next morning, the two came to the door with generous gifts. Meng Guihan and Meng Guihuan, who had been looking forward to it for a long time, welcomed them into the hall with great enthusiasm. The servants served them fragrant tea. They said in pleasantries that Representative Sheng Suihe After the Sheng family expressed their gratitude to Meng Guiyu and Meng Guihuan, they really wanted to leave a gift and say goodbye.
Meng Guihuan secretly praised Meng Guihan for his thoughtfulness and said with a smile: "Actually, it's just a matter of a few words, not to mention that your family is innocent to begin with, and it is what we brothers and sisters should do... How can you deserve this? How serious is it?"
She declined and refused to accept the gift. It was impossible for the Sheng brothers and sisters to take the gift and leave. After a moment of stalemate, Meng Guihan logically suggested: "Brother Six is the one who decides everything in the family. It just so happens that Brother Six is coming back soon. Why don't you and I take a moment?" Wait a moment and discuss it after Brother Six comes back?"
Although both Sheng Suihe and Sheng Weiqiao could see that they were deliberately keeping guests, they didn't know about Empress Dowager Meng's private connections, and they thought Meng Guiyu was interested in winning over the Sheng family, so they planned to meet Sheng Suihe.
They refused in their hearts, but as Sheng Weiqiao said the other day, no matter what considerations Meng Guiyu had, he proved the innocence of the Sheng family in front of Empress Dowager Meng and Mrs. Xiang, and after all, he greatly helped the Sheng family. busy. So it was hard to refuse this meeting, so I had to continue sitting down.
At this time, Meng Guihan was talking to Sheng Suihe and winked at Meng Guihuan. Meng Guihuan understood, got up and invited Sheng Weiqiao to sit in his boudoir to enhance their relationship: "I embroidered it two days ago. A "Picture of Nanshan", I plan to present it to my aunt on New Year's Eve. Would you like Miss Sheng San to go over and help me take a look at it to see if there is anything that needs to be modified?"
