The next day, after breakfast, he ordered Hongying to call Qinghe.
Meng Ying is sitting at the top, with a pale little face, not angry but powerful.
Seeing that his master looked worried and guilty, Qinghe couldn't help but feel a little trembling.
"Qinghe, how long have you been here?" Meng Ying spoke.
"Girl, I came here when I was ten years old, and it has been four years now." Qinghe was in a state of confusion, and kept looking at Sui Hongying.
Hongying waved her hand, indicating that she didn't know.
Meng Ying bent down, stretched out her right hand, raised Qing He's chin, looked at it for a while, and said: "It's been four years, and the little girl back then has now grown up, and her appearance has grown. I feel pity for her.
”
What does this mean? Did the girl know something? It shouldn't be. The general didn't come back and no one else knew about it. Qinghe was worried.
"The girl is so impressed."
Seeing Qinghe's eyes dodge, Meng Ying's heart grew cold a little, she was really immature.
"I've thought about it. It would be a pity for a person with your status to marry a farmer. How about I leave you to the general?"
Qing He felt happy in his heart, but said on his face: "Girl, I don't dare."
After hearing this, Meng Ying wanted to laugh. Seeing this scene, she suddenly thought of Qingluo, so she stood up and walked to Qinghe.
"Don't you dare? Ha... The tokens have already been given to people, so why don't you say you don't dare?"
As soon as Qinghe heard these words, he knelt down with a thump: "I don't have it, I am unjust!"
"Then what is this?" Meng Ying threw the veil on the ground and looked at her coldly.
Qinghe picked up the handkerchief and recognized that it was the one he used to wrap melon seeds that day. When the incident was revealed, he was so frightened that he trembled with his hands and murmured: "Slave...Slave...
..."
Hongying was also surprised, "Are you really going to seduce the general?"
"No, no, Sister Hongying, even if you lend me a hundred courages, I wouldn't dare. I just... I just saw that Miss Wei Wu wanted to get close to the general, and his wife refused to go to the camp, so...
.....Only...I took it upon myself to help my wife win back the general."
Qinghe was so frightened that she trembled all over. She knew that although Meng Ying was a good-natured person, she was also a cold-hearted person if she started to hate her.
"You're making your own decisions! Since you have such an idea, I guess you don't need me to arrange the marriage." After saying that, he glanced at Hongying and said, "I'll tell Sister-in-law Wu later and let Brother Wu find another beautiful woman."<
/p>
"Yes."
Qinghe walked with his knees as his feet, knelt down and moved forward, grabbed the hem of Meng Ying's skirt, and sobbed: "Madam, I really think about you. That girl Wei Wu dressed up in a fancy dress, I just wanted to...
."
"Do you think that if the general accepts you, you can speak for me?"
The tone of these words was gentle, but the coercion between the lines made Qinghe's head buzz. It turned out that the lady knew it. She thought she was clever and impeccable, but others guessed it. Suddenly, cold sweat started to fall on her forehead.
.
He hurriedly defended: "No, it's not... I just want the general to see that you have him in your heart, and he will be unmoved by Wei Wu, so you don't have to go far to the south of the Yangtze River. Please spare me this time."
, I don’t dare to be good at this anymore.”
After saying that, his head touched the ground, making a "dong-dong" sound, and blood came out after a short while.
Meng Ying just watched coldly, not wanting to say a word more. She has been feeding an unfamiliar slave for four years, so what's the use of keeping her?
Qinghe cried again and climbed up to Hongying, with tears streaming down his face, and the makeup and powder all over his face blended into one, and he sobbed: "Sister Hongying, you know me best, please beg my wife for me, I really
of..."
But when she was halfway through her words, she couldn't continue anymore. Hongying looked at her with a look that seemed to freeze. If the look in her eyes could kill, she would almost be stunned by this look.
"The fate between you and me as master and servant is over. From now on, just take care of yourself!" Meng Ying turned around, not wanting to look at her.
"Girl, girl...I came to Beijing when I was ten years old and have been with you for four years. Please spare me this time, girl..." Qinghe wanted to approach Meng Ying, but was stopped by
Ying stopped.
"Come on, two people, take her down." Hongying shouted to the rough lady in the yard, and in a moment Qinghe was dragged out by his arms.
"Girl, please, I don't dare to do this anymore." Qing He cried heartbreakingly as he was being dragged.
"Go and ask Lady Gongsun to come and ask her to take him away." Meng Ying turned around and looked out the window. The sun was shining brightly outside, and the birds were singing, calling, and chasing merrily on the branches.
"Madam, Qinghe..." Hongying hesitated to speak.
"Tell Mrs. Gongsun that it's hard to keep her in this small temple of mine. Please give her good advice and stabilize her for a while. After we leave the capital, we will find someone to marry far away." Meng Ying's tone was calm, but she didn't.
A touch of warmth.
"Yes." Hongying bent down and retreated. She knew that Qinghe had touched Meng Ying's back, and she would definitely not be able to stay.
Qinghe stayed in the woodshed for most of the day, and Hongying brought some food.
"Sister Hongying, you're here. I thought you didn't care about me." Qinghe said, tears rolling down his cheeks.
"What are you talking about? How could I not care about you? I'm here right now."
"Sister Hongying, I really think about the girl. I don't understand what I did wrong. If the madam is interested in the general, she should try her best to save her; if the madam is not interested, why bother to anger me." Qinghe cried with pear blossom belt.
Yu, you really look like you have been wronged.
Hongying cursed in her heart: A white-eyed wolf, an unrepentant bitch, but now he still has the nerve to defend himself.
But after all, we have been together for a long time, and when I see her still not regretting what she said, I sigh in my heart.
"Do you really not understand, or are you pretending not to understand? Although we are slaves, everything we say and do is the face of the lady. You are giving and receiving in private. If the general intends to repay it, but the general sends the veil back, then
He got angry and even hit Madam on the face. Why don't you make Madam angry?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Hearing this, Qinghe lowered his head.
Hongying struck while the iron was hot: "But Madam is soft-hearted, and she won't be able to let you go if she throws you away. You can go hide with Mrs. Gongsun for a few days. When the anger subsides, she will naturally take you back." p>
The madam asked her to hold on tight, so she couldn't let Qinghe go wrong in the house.
Qinghe nodded, took off the bracelet and put it into Hongying's hand: "Sister Hongying, I know you don't lack these, but this is my sister's wish. I was in a daze that day, Yanzhi
I have been blinded by the anointing, and I have done such heartless things. You have always known me that I am not the kind of person who betrays his master, so I ask you to put in a kind word for me."
Hongying was worried that Qinghe would be suspicious, so she accepted it with a smile, "That's right, just think about it. I'll keep the things for you first." After that, she patted Qinghe's arm.
Half an hour later, Mrs. Gongsun came, and Hongying only said: "Qinghe made a mistake, but Madam is nostalgic, so she asked her to stay with you for a while first, and then take her back later."
Mrs. Gongsun was in the human tooth business, so how could she not understand the truth? She bowed to Hongying and apologized to her, saying, "Madam, you were kind to me before and always sent the top ones over. This time, it was because of your poor eyesight that you still got the best ones."
Please girl, please apologize to Madam for me."
"Madam, you are serious. Our wife said, 'Knowing people, knowing faces but not knowing hearts' cannot be blamed on you. In the future, if we are short of manpower again, we will inevitably trouble you, old man."
Hongying's words were appropriate, which made Mrs. Gongsun feel guilty and appropriate at the same time. She took Qinghe back with a smile without mentioning it.
But there is something else that makes Hongying very anxious.
The descendant of the nanny of the Yong family inquired several times but could not find anyone. However, the day of leaving Beijing was approaching day by day, and she did not dare to tell Meng Ying, fearing that her joy would be in vain.
Just hand over the small stones and pillars every day, make more trips, and don't be lazy at this time. The two children also leave at dawn every day and return at night, looking for someone.
Over the years in the capital, Meng Ying has really accumulated some belongings. The head of a brocade ruler alone can hold a carriage, not to mention other things.
Hongying reported the things she wanted to bring, and Meng Ying frowned and said, "We have to leave unnoticed this time. If we bring too many things, it will be too conspicuous. Only bring soft goods, and lock the other things in the warehouse.
Let’s talk about it later.”
Hongying understood, but after two days of sifting and picking, he still loaded a dozen large boxes and cages, two full carriages.
The boat was scheduled for dusk on June 28th. Meng Ying was afraid of being delayed, so she arrived at the ferry just after midnight.
Afraid of arousing suspicion, I only brought Zhuzhu, Xiaoshitou and Hongying with me. The others were temporarily placed at home to guard the house.
When we arrived at the ferry, we discovered that the ship was very large, half loaded with cargo and half carrying passengers. The ferry was now full of people, with pickers and loaders all loading things into the cabin.
Hongying was afraid that the ferry would be crowded, so she bumped into her wife. Also worried about the sun, she suggested that Meng Ying go to the teahouse next to the ferry first.
Seeing Hongying looking at the boxes and cages, she also instructed those who were afraid of bumps and carried them carefully. Her busy eyes were not enough, so she asked small stones and pillars to help.
Even though I was wearing men's clothing today, I was afraid of being recognized and getting into trouble, so I walked alone along the aisle of the teahouse and went up to the second floor.
"Sir, there is a private room on the second floor." Seeing that this young master was well-dressed, Xiao Er hurriedly stepped forward and bent down to say hello.
Meng Ying nodded, "Thank you, little brother."
As soon as the waiter led him to the second floor, he heard the shopkeeper calling him downstairs and replied: "Here he comes!"
"Sir, this is a quiet room, please make yourself at home."
Meng Ying nodded, and the waiter went downstairs.
When the waiter went downstairs, Meng Ying opened the curtain, but unexpectedly, a big hand pulled her in.
Meng Ying's legs were so frightened that she was about to shout for help, but she covered her mouth with one hand. In desperation, she whimpered, hit and scratched her, and the man whispered: "It's me." p>
When I looked up, it was Tao Huansheng.
"You...why are you here?" Meng Ying felt guilty and stuttered when speaking.
"The guard said, you booked a boat ticket to Meizhou, I don't feel comfortable coming to see you."
"You actually ordered someone to follow me!" Meng Ying suddenly felt like a joke and carefully avoided him, but others already knew it.
"It's not stalking. I arranged guards to protect you secretly. Why did you go to Jiangnan?"
The concern in Tao Huansheng's eyes made Mengying unable to bear to lie to him.
"Nothing, I just want to leave the capital." Meng Ying lowered her head, not daring to look into his eyes.
"How long will you be gone?"
"I'm not coming back!" Meng Ying said with determination and determination.
"What will I do if you don't come back?" All this happened so suddenly that Tao Huansheng was caught off guard.
"I have caused a lot of trouble to the general, and I really can't remain shameless in the general's mansion. Now that the rumors have subsided, I just ask the general to write a letter of divorce and let me go back."
"Have you never thought that we can be a real couple?"
Tao Huansheng's handsome face was so close that she could even hear his breath. Meng Ying's heart tightened leisurely, but she knew that she could not back down at this time.
"Never." Meng Ying said against her will.
"What do you think if I ask you to consider it now? We start from scratch and don't become a fake couple?"
Meng Ying moved her eyes away, shook her head and said, "I don't want to. I'd better ask you to find a well-matched lady. In addition, the account books of the shop and farm that the general entrusted me to take care of have been sent to your study.
Place it on the desk."
Tao Huansheng took a breath of cold air and took half a step back.
He really couldn't understand that a few days ago, he had been chatting with him, and in the blink of an eye, he was as cold as ice. This woman's heart was really difficult to fathom.
"Farewell." Meng Ying turned around and wanted to leave, but was pulled back by Tao Huansheng.
Tao Huansheng had great strength and pulled Meng Ying into his arms. Meng Ying hurriedly pushed him away and stepped back repeatedly.
But as soon as he took two steps back, he couldn't move anymore. There was a wall behind him, and there was no way to retreat.
Tao Huansheng stepped down, held her shoulders, and said hoarsely: "What if I don't want to let you go?"
"Why don't you let me go? Miss Wei comes from a famous family and is a perfect match for you. I am a girl from a famous family and I would never dare to occupy a magpie's nest."
After saying this, Meng Ying felt a little regretful. She originally just wanted to explain the facts, but now she sounded sour and jealous.
Tao Huansheng was also surprised and hurriedly defended: "I have nothing to do with Miss Wei, how could you think so?"
"If we have nothing to do with it, how can we cover it up for her, take that Taoist nun, and then hide it behind her back?"
"Meng Ying, listen to me, we..."
"We have nothing to say!" His words were fine to deceive a little girl who was not familiar with the world, but he could not deceive her.
"If you are really angry with me, I can explain the matter about that Taoist nun. If you really want to leave me, you don't have to go far away. This capital is so big that if you don't mean it, you may never meet her in your lifetime."
Meng Ying said nothing. Even now, Tao Huansheng is still prevaricating her, and his eyes are filled with tears of grievance unconsciously.
Tao Huansheng was a little at a loss, as if everything he said was wrong.
After a long while, Meng Ying pressed the corner of her eyes with a handkerchief, straightened her clothes, and said seriously: "General, I am deeply grateful for your kindness to me, but the capital is too complex and it is really not a place for us to stay. Farewell, General, take care.
!"
As the two passed each other, Tao Huansheng looked through the window and saw the consort Luo Yu also arriving at the ferry.
He suddenly understood.
"Could it be that you still miss Luo Yu?"
These heart-wrenching words almost made Meng Ying laugh out loud.
She didn't know what Tao Huansheng saw and just wanted to escape, so she said casually: "Whether it is yes or no, it has nothing to do with the general!"
Hearing this, Tao Huansheng sneered and said: "It turns out that I am trying to reconcile with my old love, no wonder I am so anxious. But let me remind you, the eldest princess is a jealous person, and her man will never let others get involved!"
"Shut up!" Meng Ying's face was filled with anger, and she could no longer hold back her tears. Who did he think she was, a singer?
Seeing Meng Ying sad, Tao Huansheng's heart felt like it was fried, and he reached out to help her wipe away her tears.
Meng Ying turned her head and avoided it.
Ahead is the ferry. She wants to leave here and doesn't want to stay for a moment.
After thinking about it, he turned around and walked out.
"If you walk out of this door today, I will no longer protect you!"
Meng Ying stopped and said lightly: "If you can't relieve my worries, why bother asking me to walk alone at night!"
After that, I went downstairs without looking back.
Rather than leaving, it is better to say that she is running away. She is afraid that after gaining, she will lose again. If it is a transaction, she is not afraid; but if she is truly affectionate, she cannot afford to lose.
A person will really burn out all the obsessions in his heart at a certain moment, and no matter how strong the wind is, he will never be able to blow back the past.
