Elder Mei went back to his room angrily and could no longer calm down. At that time, extra personnel were sent to intercept the news spread by Mei Yao. Of course, they used other excuses to cover up the past. The purpose was just one thing, for the identity of the elder of the country.
After distributing all this, the good man felt a little calmer.
"No, even if I stopped this, what would the woman do if she didn't give it to her? After all, it is a priceless treasure. I was right."
Suddenly thinking about what he said to Ling'er in front of the king last time, he felt even more nervous. Yao'er had some intentions when she went to give gifts, and he had bumped into her like that. What if she remembered the crime? When she thought of this, she became even more nervous.
It can't be calm.
Standing up and muttering, an idea suddenly occurred to her. She sent someone to find Mei Yao, and of course asked for the bracelet Ling'er gave her. She also enclosed other gifts for others to send.
When Ling'er heard Chen Feng talk about sending her grandmother back, she didn't think much about it. She just chuckled. She originally wanted to re-glue her grandmother and hand it to Chen Feng so he could do it himself. But then he thought about it, Mei Yao seemed to like her own preparation and drying.
After receiving the flower tea, my grandmother promised to give it to her, but she didn’t let anyone give it to her.
On this day, she was busy drying scented tea in the courtyard. Someone came to visit.
The climate here is really different. Many flowers are in bloom, obviously it is spring, but there are also lotus, chrysanthemum, and even plum blossoms. Apart from the fact that these flowers are planted in different places, it is really difficult to distinguish the four seasons of the year.
.
The temperature was a bit cool in the morning, warm at noon, and also in the afternoon. The evening also passed quickly. In addition to the rare comfort of the climate, there has been no rain, but there is only a slight humidity in the climate.
When I heard that someone was visiting, I quickly packed my things and turned around to meet him in the flower hall in front.
"Who are you?"
Looking at the old lady and a girl who came in with Xiaomei, Ling'er asked unconsciously.
"Oh, I am Mei Yao's nanny and her grandma. Yao'er is young and immature, so she wanted to come to the palace to play with the lady. She came right away. Unexpectedly, she actually stole the treasure given by his grandfather and the late king as a gift.
Miss, her grandfather found out and was furious. He scolded her. Really, Miss, you have caused trouble. This is a small gift, I hope Miss will accept it."
The old man was Mrs. Mei's nameless wife. He spoke to her generously and decently, reached out to the girl, took out two brocade boxes and handed them to Ling'er.
"Are you Grandma Mei Yao? This, Grandma, Wang has already told me. Haha, I am also ignorant. Mei Yao brought it and I accepted it without knowing it. I don't have much use for this grandmother. What do you think?
If you want it, just send someone to ask for it, why bother giving any gifts. I really can't accept these. Seriously, grandma."
After listening to the old man's introduction, Linger liked the kind old man in front of him from the bottom of his heart. He spoke politely and modestly. He didn't dare to accept the brocade box randomly anymore.
After experiencing the conflict between Chen Feng and her, she knew through Xiaomei's mouth that random gifts were not allowed in the palace or the homes of high-ranking officials. If someone knew about it, they would be punished.
I almost committed a crime. Fortunately, she is a king. If she were an ordinary woman, I am afraid she would no longer exist in the palace.
At that time, she kindly took Chenfeng out of her arms and handed it to her grandmother. She handed it to the old man. She didn't even look at the old man's things.
When the old man saw her returning it to his grandmother, he thanked her profusely. But she refused to accept the gift, and the old man insisted on letting her accept it just like Mei Yao.
"Miss, you'd better accept it. This is my master's wish."
The old man said, opening the box in front of her. One of the bracelets inside was his own, and the other contained some fragrant-smelling fruits. They looked like grapes, but actually they looked like shells.
, is emitting a strange fragrance.
"This is……"
Looking at the two boxes of things in front of him, Ling'er asked strangely.
"This is exactly the bracelet that the young lady gave to my young lady. My young lady asked her to part with her and give her something. Haha, why are you so embarrassed to accept your lady's things? As for these fruits, they are the Shenwan fruits specially cultivated and grown by my master. Look at them one by one.
, it’s very much like a refined elixir, isn’t it?”
It was obvious that she recognized the bracelet, but she didn't pick it up. The old man simply spoke directly, and then introduced the fruit.
"Shenwan Fruit? Haha, what a strange name? Is it delicious?"
The old man explained that now that the bracelet that Chenfeng gave him had been returned, Ling'er was even more excited. It was all a misunderstanding. Since the misunderstanding was resolved, nothing really happened.
Looking at the fruit, he asked the old man happily. His eyes were obviously full of curiosity.
"This is delicious. Come on, try it."
Seeing her curious look, the old man looked at Ling'er with loving eyes. Then he picked a fruit himself and squeezed it hard. The fruit split open and there were small golden kernels inside.
The old man gently pinched Xiaoren and handed it to her.
"Do you want to eat this?" She looked up at the nuts in the old man's palm. Ling'er felt a little uneasy. These people suddenly gave her something and then asked for it back. Even though they gave her something to eat, she still felt weird and shocked.
He looked at the old man and asked.
"Yes, it's delicious and fragrant."
When the old man saw her doubtful eyes, he really fell in love with this simple and kind-hearted woman. Not only was she beautiful, but she was also hospitable and kind. Of course, she was more sensible and pleasant. It is true that only a woman like her deserved it.
Go to the king.
Ci Ai looked at her and said, her hand still stretched out.
Although Ling'er was surprised to see the old man like this, he still boldly stretched out his delicate little hands to pick up the nuts, put them in his mouth, and chewed them slowly.
There is a fragrant smell in the mouth. To be honest, it is very similar to the chewing gum you buy in today's life. I was worried that there is no such thing in this era. Unexpectedly, I have encountered it now, but it melts slowly.
, it melted completely for a long time and the direction is still there.
"Is it tasty?"
Seeing Ling'er naughtily closing her eyes, looking relaxed and happy, the old man asked kindly.
"Well, it's delicious. Thank you, grandma."
Opening her big, spiritual eyes and looking at the old man, Ling'er nodded gratefully and said obediently.
"Haha, just like it. This bracelet has returned to its original owner, so take it with you. Grandma will help you." Seeing her eating the whole nut, the old man chuckled lovingly. He picked up the bracelet in another box and said
He took her hand and helped her put it on.
"Grandma, I'm really sorry to trouble you. I originally gave this to Mei Yao, but now I've brought it back. Let's do it this way. If she likes it, just treat it as if I gave it to her, okay?"
Although she wanted to dodge, the old man's kindness could not bear to touch her. She could only stand there obediently and let the old man put the bracelet on her wrist. Then she said humbly, and at the same time she wanted to take it off and give it to the old man so that she could take it back and give it to her.
To the king.
"Don't be like this, girl. I know you should also like this bracelet, right? Then Yao'er can't accept it from you. Haha, don't take it off, this is yours. Well, this tea is really delicious. Take it in your mouth.
Fragrant, with a lingering fragrance on the teeth.”
Seeing Ling'er like this, the old man refused to let her take it off. He said thoughtfully. Seeing that she obviously liked it but still wanted to give it back to his granddaughter, he even said kindly. He stopped her and pulled her to sit on a stool.
., after making sure she sat down, she picked up the tea poured by Xiaomei on the table and put it into her mouth.
After tasting it slowly, I was full of praise.
"Well, grandma, by the way, I promised Mei Yao last time that I would give her some flower tea. I just happened to dry some of it these days. Xiaomei, go and get some of the flower tea I dried for grandma, and Mei Yao will also get some.
.Wrap it up for them and consider it a little bit of my kindness."
Seeing that grandma is so kind, she keeps saying this. Although Ling'er is a little embarrassed, it's not easy to take it off again.
Seeing that the old man said that he liked scented tea, he thought of the scented tea that was drying in the courtyard. He chuckled and gave instructions to Xiaomei. He sat down to drink tea with the old man.
The two of them drank tea in a rare and peaceful manner. As he watched the old man leave, Ling'er suddenly felt very sleepy all over.
"Miss, how are you?" Xiaomei and Xiaoqiu were walking back with her when they suddenly felt the walking figure of Ling'er swaying and falling to one side. They quickly stepped forward to support her and asked with concern.
"I don't know, I'm just a little sleepy and I really want to sleep. It's okay. Just help me go back and sleep for a while and I'll be fine."
Using Xiaomei's hand to steady her figure, Ling'er steeled herself and looked at the nervous expressions of the two girls and comforted her. She was also puzzled by her sudden sleepiness. But she didn't think much about it, only thinking that maybe she was too bored.
Feeling sleepy, he said to the two of them and walked forward with their help.
The two girls looked at her sleepy eyes and yawned repeatedly. They didn't think much, and they just helped her go into the bedroom. When they arrived at the bedroom, Ling'er fell into a deep sleep not long after she lay down on the bed.
"It's strange. Miss usually doesn't sleep at this time. If she does, she only sleeps after lunch. Why do you look so sleepy now?"
Helping Ling'er go in, Xiaomei thought about her usual habits. It was obviously a little weird for her to go to bed not long after breakfast. As she walked out, she asked Xiaoqiu weirdly.
"If you don't tell me, I really didn't find this weird. Maybe it's because the lady didn't sleep last night? Don't worry, I know that lady. She is indeed Mrs. Mei's former concubine. She is a very nice person.
"
Hearing what Xiaomei said, Xiaoqiu frowned and thought for a moment. She couldn't help but say weirdly. Thinking of her mother's kindness and kindness, she said with relief and continued walking out.
"Yes, I know that too. Okay, let's not talk anymore. Go and help the lady pick some flower petals. You go over there, and I'll be waiting at the door. I'll take care of her when she gets up."
After hearing what Xiaoqiu said, Xiaomei also frowned and said doubtfully. Instead, she calmly ordered the two of them to do their work. Watching Xiaoqiu leave, Xiaomei also carried a bamboo basket and picked some near the door. After picking a few pieces, she still felt uneasy.
"No, I have to go see how Miss is doing?"
He murmured obviously uneasily, turned around and walked towards the room where Ling'er was lying.
"Miss," I cautiously stepped forward and called her in a low voice, but there was no movement. I couldn't help but look at her chest attentively. Her chest was rising and falling rhythmically, which made me feel relieved.
"Perhaps I'm too worried. How could Mrs. Mei harm the young lady? Didn't the young lady have a good sleep? It's better to go out and pick flower petals."
Watching her chest rise and fall, and even lying next to her to listen to her heartbeat, she made sure it was intact. Xiaomei said with relief and weirdly, turned around and walked outside. They all went out, but they didn't know that Ling'er, who was sleeping soundly, was acting strangely at this time.
