226. Chapter 226 Women of this era(1/2)
Chapter 226 Women of this era...
Regarding the matter of letting her biological father endure hardships outside, Meiberry felt that she didn't mean it, but she couldn't help her father thinking so.
So, less than two days later, her father asked her to bring him a meal at noon, and he wanted to eat it hot.
"Who is like my father? He still wants me to bring food to him. He is training honestly and there is no one else to take care of him..."
Although Meiberry complained on her lips, she was honest physically and loaded a pot of hot bean porridge on the mule cart.
Because of Mei Youqian's request, Miao took the initiative after hearing this and asked Mei You to deliver lunch to her father, and went with Mei You to have some company.
It's a bit worrying for the young lady to go to Wengcheng alone.
"If you can eat something good, who wouldn't want to feel better?"
Meiyou thought it was nothing, it was just a good time to go see where his father and the others were training.
In the past few days, Mei You was curious and asked Mei Youcai what training was like, but her father couldn't explain it clearly after talking for a long time.
Finally, he stumbled and concluded, "Nothing good."
It would be better for her to meet him in person.
In this regard, Mayberry has something to say.
"It's nothing to see. My dad said it was called 'The Dance of Demons'."
Compared to Mei You, who doesn't know how to describe it, Mei Youqian has more adjectives.
What about the Taiping Rebellion, the Yellow Turban Army, the Boxers...
Her father recounted some scenes of peasant uprisings he had seen on TV before.
Regarding this, Mei Mei and Wei Meili looked confused at first glance.
Mei Bei and Mei You were sitting on the mule cart. Mei You heard Mei Bei's retelling, and her face went blank for a moment.
What I know is that their militia training is disorganized.
For those who don’t know, they think these militiamen are taking advantage of the chaos to revolt.
"So...is this what it is?"
"Otherwise, sister, what do you think it would be like?"
When Mei Berry asked this question, it was very good, and Mei You didn't know how to describe it.
Some grand and majestic scenes flashed through his mind, and then Meiyou found that he couldn't seem to take it in.
On the contrary, what Mayberry said may be closer to reality?
"I originally wanted to participate in this for my father."
Meiyou suddenly expressed his thoughts.
She originally thought that Mei Bei would be surprised, but Mei Bei held a small leather whip and said from the side: "Wow! Then if you go in, sister, you must be a little boss with your skills!"
When the time comes for war, the military industry will be in a state of chaos, and that’s it!”
Saying that, Mei Bei gave Mei You a thumbs up, and her sincere smile couldn't be faked.
"Don't you think it's weird for me to think like this?"
"Is it weird?"
"Women of this era..."
"Hey! We are not women of this era!"
Mei Bei interrupted Mei You's words and said in a hurried tone: "Sister, since you have thought about it, if you have the opportunity to do it, would you give up this opportunity because of the so-called 'women of this era'?"
"of course not."
Meiyou's answer was straightforward.
"Then do you care about worldly opinions?"
"No, if I have the chance, I will definitely do something in my career! Originally, I joined this militia with this idea in mind.
But then I thought about it again. What they say is militia, but in the end it is military service. When the time comes, everyone disperses and goes home. In the end, we are still ordinary people."
This did not meet Meiyou's expectations.
After listening to Mei You's explanation, Mei Berry suddenly felt relaxed.
God knows that when Meiyou suddenly said the words "women of this era", Meiberry had the feeling of her scalp exploding instantly, and she didn't want to experience it a second time.
Suddenly a voice roared in her heart - "This shouldn't be her idea, she shouldn't be bound by this."
These words suddenly exploded in Meiberry's ears, making her almost stunned.
"I really thought you were going to give up just now just to fit in with this era..."
Mei Bei didn't hold back her inner thoughts and told Mei You about her shocking idea just now.
She likes to read novels because of the shining unyielding brilliance of the heroines, and she wants to watch them shine in that world.
It’s not the so-called compromise, it’s not the so-called integration!
Reality is already very painful, so why should the heroine succumb to that era?
"No, I just think most people have this idea..."
"Then I am not the majority of people. No matter what you want to do, sister, I will stand by your side and support you!
You see, even if you vowed to kill Chen Yuan, I would immediately stand by your side and cheer for you. Don't think too much.
Even if I don't support you, it must be my problem."
"Pfft~"
Mei You was suddenly amused by Mei Bei's last words, and Mei You himself didn't know what was going on. After hearing what Mei Bei said, somewhere in his heart, it felt like a shackle was completely broken.
She laughed, from a low chuckle to a louder laugh. Regardless of the suppressed looks from others, Meiyou just wanted to laugh.
It's just that she made Mayberry look stupid like this.
As the mule cart passed through the noisy market, Meiyou's laughter caused the people around to think that Meiyou wanted to say something, but then she remembered what she had just said.
then--
"What are you looking at? You've never seen anyone smiling!?"
When Mei You finished laughing, she happened to see Mei Bei punching with one hand and whipping a whip with the other, threatening the passers-by who were looking around.
Like that, Mei You couldn't help but laugh again. She suppressed her laughter and said, "Let's go quickly, otherwise the second uncle and the others won't be able to have lunch."
"Oh~"
·
Originally, Mei You thought they could see the place where the militiamen were training when they were delivering food, but unexpectedly they couldn't get in. Instead, Mei Youqian and the others came out to get the food.
This made Meiberry and Meiyu feel a bit disappointed, so they decided to go to the store to buy something on the way back to relieve their depression.
Although Meiyou has no interest in gold and silver jewelry, she sometimes still goes shopping with Meibei, and occasionally she sees simple and exquisite ones and buys them herself.
But when I buy it back, Meiyou still needs to finish it.
A good hairpin turned into a hidden weapon in the end. Meiberry was convinced by this and asked Meiyou to process it for her.
A poor student has a lot of tools, so for a mediocre person, it would be okay for her to get a few more things to defend herself, right?
Today they arrived at the entrance of Baiqiao Pavilion, a famous jewelry store in the city, and saw an exquisite and gorgeous carriage parked at the entrance today.
"Well, this shop isn't booked today, is it?"
When Mei Pei and Mei You entered the shop, they asked the waiter at the door. The waiter welcomed Mei Pei and the others in with a smile and said, "The distinguished guests are on the second floor. The downstairs is still open as normal."
The second floor that the waiter mentioned is the kind of VIP guest reception room.
In this case, Meiberry just nodded and indicated that she could look at the jewelry on the first floor at will.
During this period, Meiberry also saw the shopkeeper going upstairs and downstairs several times, taking many boxes from the back.
At first glance, it seems that the customers above are quite picky, or quite wealthy, or maybe both.
Anyway, the attitude of the shopkeeper today is something Mei Berry has never seen before.
"Does this look good?"
Mei Bei wanted to ask Mei You about whose family was making such a big fuss, but Mei You asked her while holding a butterfly-shaped silver hairpin.
"Ah, it's good~"
Mei Berry was forced to turn her eyes back, and saw Mei You inserting the hairpin directly into her hair, looking at it for a while and saying, "It suits you very well."
"Yeah?"
Mei Bei looked for a mirror to look at herself, and heard the sound of coming downstairs again.
Mei Bei turned around and saw a girl in gorgeous clothes and a veil on her face, being helped downstairs by a maid in brocade clothes.
Although I can't see the whole face, those almond round eyes are really beautiful!
