Chapter 68: Visiting the Boudoir at Night

 Meng Ying got a little better, so she got up. She went through the general's shop and Zhuangzi's account books.

Others are resigning and leaving their official seals, but she plans to resign and get married and leave their books.

It happened that at this time, the cook brought a basket of fruits to say hello, saying that her brother-in-law had brought them to Mrs. Jing Jing.

Meng Ying saw her hesitating and seemed to have something to say.

"Sister-in-law Wu, if you have anything to say, just say it."

"Oh, Madam, you are really quick to talk, so I won't beat around the bush. My brother-in-law is 17 years old this year. He has thick eyebrows and big eyes. He is an honest and responsible person. When I met Miss Qinghe, I was at the age to propose marriage.

, so I brought my uncle here and let the girl look at each other."

It's really raining and giving out bamboo hats, and Meng Ying is worrying about Qinghe's marriage.

Qinghe only bought the maid after he entered the capital. His home was originally twenty miles away from the capital. Only his stepmother and stepbrother were left at home. If he let her go home, he was afraid that her stepmother would sell her again; but if he took her

Jiangnan, I am also afraid that she will not be able to leave her hometown.

It would be best to find a good home for her in the capital.

"Sister-in-law Wu, since she is here, please bring her to me for a look." Meng Yingqiang said with energy.

"He's right outside the corner door. I'm going to call him in." Sister-in-law Wu ran out like a whirlwind.

"When people come later, take a closer look. Qinghe Xiao, you can check it for her."

Hongying smiled and said, "Yes, yes, my wife, I will take a closer look. If you like her, I will keep her myself."

"Okay, okay, if you are not afraid of Xiao Lin, I won't stop you." Meng Ying had a teasing expression.

Hongying blushed and said coquettishly: "Girl, I'm ignoring you." After saying that, she turned around with a smile on her face.

Not long after, Sister-in-law Wu came with someone.

The visitor was of medium build, wearing a short-breasted shirt, a belt of the same color around his waist, indigo blue trousers, and a pair of black velvet shoes.

"I don't know how to call it?" Meng Ying said.

"The villain's name is Wu Youfeng. Because his family has a good reputation, outsiders call him Wu Yousan." The visitor replied respectfully.

"What do you do for a living now?" This married man married a man, dressed and fed, so Qinghe had to be fed and clothed.

"My family has ten acres of thin farmland and grows some vegetables and fruits. I deliver vegetables from the garden to the vendors in the city every day. After removing the chews in a year, I can have more than ten taels of silver left." Wu Yousan replied a little shyly.

.

"Who else is in the family?" If the population is complicated, it will be difficult to get along with them.

"In addition to my brother and sister-in-law, there is also an old mother in the family."

"The second child and I have split houses, and now only the third child lives with my mother-in-law. Although she is old, she is diligent and keeps the three tile-roofed houses neatly organized." Sister-in-law Wu thinks her brother-in-law is stupid.

Said in a supportive tone.

He looked at Hongying again, and Hongying nodded frequently.

"Although Qinghe is my girl, it is a major marriage matter after all. I have to ask her what she means. Third brother of the Wu family, please go back first. If the girl is willing, you can bring a matchmaker."

"Thank you, madam." The brother and sister-in-law bowed their hands and thanked them non-stop.

After seeing off Sister-in-law Wu, I called Qinghe.

Meng Ying looked at Qinghe carefully and said, "You look a little different these days."

Qinghe was a little panicked and said: "Never...never been different."

"Everyone has a love for beauty. It's not a sin to apply some rouge, so what are you afraid of?" This Qinghe looks a little different from usual.

"Yes... Brother Lin brought it to me from Qingzhou. If the girl doesn't like it, I will wash it off later."

"No need, I'm not feeling well today, so I'll keep the story short. Your sister Hongying will go to Jiangnan with me. What are your plans?"

"I..." Qinghe looked up at Meng Ying, then at Hongying, then lowered his head.

"If you don't want to go, I will find you a place to stay in the capital, which will save you the trouble of leaving your hometown."

Qinghe's face burst into joy, "Girl, are you planning to..."

"Sister-in-law Wu has a brother-in-law who I met today. He is a farmer and he is an honest and responsible person. If you follow him, you will not enjoy great blessings, but you will not suffer great losses either."

"You want me to marry a farmer?" Qinghe said with a disappointed look.

"Then who do you want to marry?" Meng Ying was confused by Qinghe's words. She heard what he said and knew that she had the right person.

"No, that's not what I mean. If the girl says yes, then that's great. It's just that I can't bear to leave the girl." Qing He said with twinkling eyes.

"Everything in the world is a feast that never ends. It's good to have people's hearts high, but only by being down-to-earth can it last forever. I'm tired, think about it carefully and come back to me again."

"Yes." Qinghe retreated cowardly.

After all this trouble, Meng Ying felt that she had no strength at all. She drank a bowl of porridge for dinner, then lay down with her clothes on, and fell asleep after a while.

Meng Ying didn't like being on duty at night, and Hongying was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable when she woke up, so she covered herself with a thin quilt and left.

At night, Meng Ying felt thirsty and reached for the tea cup. Suddenly she saw a person standing next to the bed. She was so frightened that she hurriedly stepped back, sweating all over her body.

"Don't be afraid, it's me."

Hearing the familiar voice, Meng Ying took advantage of the moonlight and took a closer look, "General, why is it you?"

"Let me see if you are okay." After saying that, he stretched his hand from behind the gauze curtain.

Meng Ying instinctively ducked back, but Tao Huansheng stretched out his arms and covered his forehead tightly with his big palm.

"You no longer have a fever, why are you still sweating so much?"

Meng Ying cursed in her heart: It scares people to death, and it’s not you who is killing them.

"I'm fine, General, don't worry."

This is an eviction order.

Tao Huansheng was a little disappointed and thought: The little sick cat from last night was still cute. It crawled into his arms when it was cold and warmed its restless little hands... Thinking of this, Tao Huansheng's ears turned red unconsciously.<

/p>

Meng Ying was puzzled. The guards of the city defense camp could not leave their posts without permission unless ordered by the emperor. What was the purpose of him entering the city every two days?

In other words, he enjoys dealing with himself and Wei Yun'er?

When I think of this, I feel ashamed and angry.

"Here, I have another thing to tell you." After saying that, he took out a handkerchief and handed it to Mengying.

"Do you know me?"

Meng Ying picked it up and looked at it. She found a brocade handkerchief with a green grass seedling embroidered in the center, which was exactly the green grass handkerchief.

"Where do you get a general?"

Tao Huansheng told Meng Yingting how he found it in the food box and what was inside.

After hearing this, Meng Ying was shaking with anger.

No wonder Qinghe has been dressing up in such a strange way recently, and no wonder Wu Yousan is so distasteful to her. It turns out that this is her heartache.

But in front of Tao Huansheng, she couldn't say it.

"General, I know this, and I will definitely restrain the maid. This kind of thing will never happen again."

Seeing Meng Ying's worried expression, I knew she was really angry.

"If your maid doesn't obey my orders, I'll replace you with another one. If you have any difficulties, I can do it for you."

Meng Ying lowered her head and did not answer.

Tao Huansheng is a little embarrassed. People don't want to see him, and he is not a shameless person.

It's not easy to go to the city on a non-holiday holiday. He has a lot to say to the people in front of him, but Meng Ying's indifference makes him feel like a pot of fire in his heart and cold water to pour on him.

After a while, he squeezed out a sentence: "You said nothing happened, so I left."

Even though he said this, he didn't move his steps and looked at her.

Meng Ying nodded and made no attempt to stay.

Tao Huansheng took two steps back, took out an oil paper bag from his arms and placed it on the table, saying: "This is candied fruit. If the medicine tastes bitter, just eat one."

Meng Ying didn't answer, just nodded.

She secretly thought: When he comes to Wei Yun'er, he will probably do the same thing. Thinking of this, her heart becomes colder.

"I know, thank you General." Meng Ying thought to herself, half a month later, I also went to Jiangnan.

Tao Huansheng opened the window and took another look at the bedside. Seeing that Meng Ying hadn't moved at all, he sighed and flew away.

After Tao Huansheng left, Meng Ying's tears were like broken pearls, rolling down her face one by one. She murmured to herself, "I think I treat others with sincerity, why do everyone bully me and betray me...

..."

After that, he got out of bed and swept the oil-paper bag containing the candied fruits to the floor, and a few plums fell out.

Hongying heard the noise, pushed the door open, and saw candied fruits all over the floor. Meng Ying sat on the bed, facing the wall, and the curtain was tightly covered.

Hongying didn't dare to ask any more questions. She gathered up the candied fruits on the ground and saw that there were two left in the oil paper bag, so she quietly put them into Meng Ying's tea bowl.

In the past few days, she had been busy packing her bags for the trip south, and she had forgotten to buy the girl preserves. She really couldn't understand why the girl couldn't like such a thoughtful and considerate general.

First there was Qingluo's separation, then there was the Yao family's ruthlessness, Luo Yu's senselessness, and now there is the careless Tao Huansheng and the unfamiliar Qinghe.

Even if I have lived two lives, I still feel chilly.

As the saying goes, life is unsatisfactory nine times out of ten, and you can only talk to people about it.

Everything is hidden in the heart, so why speak? How can we speak?

The moon outside the window is like a hook, and the low sobs are as small as dust in this huge capital city.
