Chapter 90 Feeling like old friends at first sight
Chapter 90
Qiu Shuang and the others are sensitive children, but they didn't feel anything hurting their self-esteem here.
So after being pulled by my sisters, I quickly closed my big mouth, but still looked around lively, without being too restrained.
I just think this place is as beautiful as a fairyland. I thought their home was big and beautiful before, but I didn't expect that they were ignorant and ignorant.
Among them, Xiaofang was the most obsessed with it, and her eyes were straight.
Even though he was pulled by his sisters, he still didn't come back to his senses.
I looked at these pavilions, rockeries and strange rocks in fascination.
If only she could create such a beautiful garden.
At this moment.
There was a beautiful woman in the courtyard who seemed to have heard the movements of their group.
Came over quickly.
When Bai Shu saw the person coming, he was startled. He immediately ignored Meng Qing and others and hurriedly greeted him.
"Madam, why are you here? I have already brought Miss Meng and the others here."
Only then did Meng Qing realize that the beautiful woman in front of him was the real lady he was going to meet today, Mrs. Wu.
He quickly took the sisters to see him and said, "I've met Madam."
"Please get up quickly. There is no need to be polite. I was impatient and ran over here. I was presumptuous."
Mrs. Wu was very kind and made a very good first impression on Meng Qing anyway.
When Meng Qing was slightly distracted, her hand was already held by the enthusiastic Mrs. Wu.
"Miss Meng, I have long admired your name. I have heard most of your matters from my husband-in-law, but I never thought that you would become a disciple of Master Xie. I never thought that we would have such a fate."
Meng Qing secretly thought that indeed, Mrs. Wu knew about her apprenticeship, and it seemed that things would go smoothly. Thinking of this, the smile on Meng Qing's face became even wider.
"Yeah, I didn't expect it, but it was just fate." Meng Qing said with a bit of sigh.
Seeing this, Mrs. Wu understood and said, "But I will not relax my standards because of this relationship. You know, my requirements are very high."
Behind them, Ji Xi and the others were slightly excited. They had already told them about Meng Qing's apprenticeship, but they were not surprised. After all, they all saw Sister Meng Qing's excellence.
Besides, it's impossible that Sister Meng Qing would not teach them after they learned it. It's just because she knows this clearly that she doesn't have any jealousy.
Instead of being jealous of other people's fortunes, it's better to take advantage of your own, like Mrs. Wu in front of you.
Meng Qing breathed a sigh of relief, understanding that Mrs. Wu understood what she meant. She was not willing to have a too deep relationship with Xie Wei. She believed that a smart person like Mrs. Wu would understand her choice.
In fact, Mrs. Wu really understood that when Fang Hui told her before, she already felt that it was inappropriate. You must know that Xie Wei has a good reputation. If other scholars know about it and are blinded by jealousy, he will do it.
Anything could happen, and Meng Qing himself would be in danger.
Although she was worried, she didn't know if Meng Qing would see the danger, which was why she made the temptation just now.
Fortunately, Meng Qing himself is still quite sober.
This also made Mrs. Wu somewhat satisfied with Meng Qing.
The two looked at each other and smiled, feeling quite like old friends at first sight. They held arms and walked into the front hall together.
Ji Xi, the others, and Baizhu were left looking at each other.
What happened? Mrs. Wu and Sister Meng Qing became so intimate so quickly?
Clearly I didn't miss anything.
Although my mind was full of doubts, I still subconsciously followed the pace of the two of them and followed them.
After everyone sat down, Meng Qing took out the gift he had prepared and handed it to Mrs. Wu, saying: "A common girl is not very knowledgeable. When I was shopping that day, I happened to see this pearl hairpin in the silver building. I thought it was very suitable for Mrs. Wu, so I bought it."
I'm going to leave, just treat it as a greeting gift, please don't dislike it, madam."
Seeing the gift box opened by Meng Qing, Zhuchai really agreed with Mrs. Wu's wishes. In addition, she saw that Meng Qing's words were indeed sincere. It was considered a courtesy, so she would not refuse.
"I like it very much. You took the trouble."
Mrs. Wu took out her hairpin and put it on her head. Not to mention, it matched Mrs. Wu's clothes today and complemented each other very well.
Bai Shu also joined in the fun, "Madam, this hairpin really suits you."
Mrs. Wu was even more happy. What woman doesn't like jewelry?
Seeing that the recipient of the gift liked it, Meng Qing, as the gift-giver, naturally felt relieved.
Mrs. Wu also prepared a meeting gift for them.
"Baizhu. Bring everything up."
"It's ma'am."
While Baizhu went to get something, Mrs. Wu said to Meng Qing and the others: "Speaking of which, I have also prepared a gift for you. They are some gadgets. Please don't dislike it."
After bringing the things up, Meng Qing found that everyone got similar things. The bigger one got a bracelet, and the smaller one got a silver lock and safety buckle.
It can be seen that a lot of thought was put into it.
Ji Xi and the others saw that this thing was very valuable, and they were still unsure whether to take it. They all looked at Meng Qing, and at Meng Qing's signal, they took it.
Chrysanthemum doesn't know how to hide itself. She is so happy when she gets something good, and her little red is bright red.
He thanked Mrs. Wu with a little milky voice, which made Mrs. Wu's heart soften.
She and Mr. Fang have not yet given birth to any children since their marriage, so she inevitably prefers children.
What's more, Dai Hua and the others are all lively and cute. Mrs. Wu touches one's head and that one's head, and she really feels like she can't put it down.
Fortunately, Mrs. Wu knows how to exercise restraint.
"As long as you like this little gift."
At this moment, Meng Qing inexplicably felt that there was something called "the brilliance of motherhood" on Mrs. Wu's face.
Fortunately, the time for greetings did not last long.
Then he got to the point, "I have already heard from my husband about your purpose of coming this time. I heard that Miss Meng wants me to accept your sisters as my disciples and teach them how to read and write?"
"That's true."
"Can I ask why Miss Meng has such thoughts?" Mrs. Wu asked curiously.
She had been very curious about Meng Qing himself before, and it was rare for her to communicate with him face to face. Mrs. Wu would not miss this opportunity.
Meng Qing could see that Mrs. Wu's eyes were full of expectation, as if she wanted to get something from her answer.
This slowed her answer for a moment, but fortunately it was just a simple pause and had no impact.
"Actually, it's nothing. Madam must also know that I fled here. I saw many things that I have never seen before. I came here through many difficulties and dangers. God favored me and met these sisters who saved me.
It also gave me a new home.
And I never think that women cannot study, do business, or do anything that men are prohibited from doing.
And why, men can study, but women can't. Men can gain a foothold in the court, be granted the title of marquis, and become prime minister, but women can only be trapped in the back house. In short, it's just two words, don't accept it."
