Chapter 65: Women are not allowed to stay in college
As soon as it was dawn, Tao Huansheng woke up Meng Ying, who was sleeping.
Because I thought a lot last night, I was a little sleepy now, so I asked: "What's the matter?"
"Follow me."
Meng Ying thought something had happened, so she hurriedly got up and followed her away.
One step deeper and one step shallower, follow Tao Huansheng and walk south.
After walking for a hundred steps, there was a mountain col ahead. There were several trees in it with lush branches and leaves. Tao Huansheng walked to the tree, stopped, and whispered: "I went to see it, and there was no one inside. If you...
...If you are in a hurry, you can go here."
Even though she has been born in two generations, Meng Ying also blushed with embarrassment and whispered, "I know."
She deliberately drank less and ate less last night, and it was very difficult for her to endure it. It turned out that he saw it all.
A rough man who led an army to fight could have such a delicate mind, which made Meng Ying's eyes well up.
Tao Huansheng hurriedly walked behind the tree and turned around. The sun had just risen, and the person who was shining could not open his eyes, so he hurriedly covered it with his hands.
"I'm fine."
Tao Huansheng turned around, and the sunlight passed through him and fell on Meng Ying's body. The girl in the halo was quiet and beautiful, just like the white orchid in bud in spring.
Meng Ying also looked at the stern man in front of her, curled her lips towards her, stretched out her hand, "Let's go."
The two faced each other quietly. After a while, Meng Ying handed her hand over to Tao Huansheng, and Tao Huansheng pulled her hand, walking faster and faster, and finally the two started running.
Facing the rising sun and accompanied by the morning breeze, the two of them ran across the wilderness like this.
The footsteps awakened the birds in the grass and scared away the butterflies lingering on the flowers...
Mrs. Wu once said: "Women should be quiet and beautiful, not like the village women running around and shouting." Meng Ying always followed Mrs. Wu's words and asked herself to sit dignified and walk with etiquette.
But now, she has completely forgotten, forgotten everyone's ladylike style, and forgotten the troubles in her previous life.
She never knew that running could be so enjoyable.
Looking at the panting pretty woman behind him, Tao Huansheng hoped that this road would never end.
"I can't run anymore." Meng Ying took the opportunity to break free of her hand from his, bending over and gasping for air.
Her face was red, and the beads of sweat on her sides were shining like dewdrops under the morning glow, which made Tao Huansheng fascinated.
Meng Ying lowered her head in shame. She didn't notice that Tao Huansheng's ears also turned red.
"If we can't run, we'll ride horses." Tao Huansheng turned his head and whistled, and the big black horse ran over. He first helped Meng Ying onto the horse, and then looked in the direction of the capital.
Meng Ying knew in her heart that he was a gentleman, but now he was in trouble. If he rode the horse by himself like yesterday, he would lead the horse, and he might not be able to reach the capital until dark.
"You come up too."
Tao Huansheng's eyes lit up, and he got on the horse without hesitation, clamped the horse's belly, and the big black horse moved forward with four hooves and galloped away.
As soon as Meng Ying finished saying those words, she felt regretful. She wanted to take back those words, but it was too late.
Now I try to move forward as much as possible, keeping a punch distance from the person behind me. But my heart is still beating "bang bang bang", and besides the sound of wind in my ears, I can hear the person's breath, which makes my neck itchy.
of.
If she encounters a bump, it is inevitable that her back will hit the chest of the person behind her. She cannot see that the person behind her is grinning almost to her ears.
This was the first time the two of them were so close, which made Tao Huansheng's heart beat wildly.
With such a sweet fragrance in his arms, there is nothing more for a husband to ask for. He not only hopes to arrive in the capital early, but also hopes that the horse will run slower so as not to disturb this rare good time.
Two people and one horse ran for nearly two hours and finally reached the city gate.
After not returning home all night, Meng Ying originally thought that Hongying would be waiting for her at the city gate, but who knew that the girl had a good night's sleep when she went back and didn't worry about herself at all.
Tao Huansheng sent her to Meng's house until the concierge Uncle Zhong came out to welcome her, and then he got on his horse.
Meng Ying kicked in and out of the door, and heard someone say from behind her, "I want to eat Youzhou food. The cook's food is not as delicious as yours."
He quickly turned around and said in surprise: "You... know everything?"
It's true that he can't hide anything from him. Since the last time we broke up on bad terms, all the meals served were made by the cook.
"On the fifteenth day, I'll be waiting for you in the camp." After saying that, he turned his horse's head and headed for the city gate.
As soon as Meng Ying entered the door with a smile, she saw a familiar face.
He wears an indigo blue shirt with a silk belt of the same color tied around his waist, and his left and right leggings are tied neatly.
Seeing Meng Ying enter the door, the man bent down and said, "Girl, I'm back."
Meng Ying's eyes heated up and she said, "Xiao Lin, when did you come back?"
"I just returned yesterday."
Meng Ying gave her a hand and said, "Get up, it's said inside."
As soon as everyone entered the banquet hall, Lin Xiaowei introduced, "Girl, these are the two little brothers from my Chenghuang Temple."
Then he said to the two men, "I haven't met you yet, girl."
"I've seen the girl." Meng Ying then discovered that there were two followers behind Xiao Lin. Both of them were wearing indigo shirts and were dressed like Xiao Lin.
"What are your names?"
The taller one cupped his fists and said, "Miss Meng, the younger one is called Zhuzhu, and his is Little Stone."
"How old are you this year?" These two neat children look very cute.
"I'm sixteen and he's twelve. Girls, don't look at us as young people. We can do everything that Brother Lin knows. We want to follow girls..."
Lin Xiao interrupted him, "Okay, okay, the girl has just come back and needs to be slow, you guys go down first."
"Yes." Little Shitou stuck out his tongue and pulled the pillar down.
Seeing the two of them walking away, Meng Ying said, "These are your two little brothers."
Lin Xiao nodded, "Yes, I went back just for these two little brats."
"Is everything going well?" After Lin Xiao left, he was in constant trouble and couldn't take care of him.
"It went smoothly, but thanks to the Qiu family's help."
It turned out that there had been a severe drought in Qingzhou for two consecutive years, and the people were starving, and refugees also came to Qi County. The two of them were alone, so the refugees occupied the City God's Temple.

Later, after the refugees left, two local gangsters took the opportunity to occupy it. The two little ones were completely homeless, so they sent a message to Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiaoben wanted to force it, but the Qiu family accepted Qiu Yan's letter and lost the relationship with the county magistrate. However, the government officials drove the gangster away in two days.
But Lin Xiao was worried that after she left, the gangsters would come to seek revenge. After much thought, she decided to take them to Beijing.
"I didn't expect that in just six months, so many things happened to the girl in the capital. It's all my fault. If I hadn't brought the message for Luo Yu, I wouldn't have..."
I remembered that I had been soft-hearted and mistakenly believed Luo Yu's words.
This made Lin Xiao regret it hard.
"It has nothing to do with you. It's because I don't know people well. Although I married into the general's mansion, the Meng residence is still there. You can let the two children live in peace. In the future, if you train them well, I will do errands for them.
Do."
Lin Xiao nodded and said "Yes."
"How is the Yao family doing now?" Meng Ying hesitated for a long time, then asked.
"The eldest young master, Yao Chengyao, has been planning to take the imperial examination after passing the scholar examination, but he has not yet been able to do so. Aunt Shi has never had any children since she had a difficult childbirth. The Yao family is now counting on the two shops you bought to make a living." p>
Lin Xiao actually had something to say: Mr. Yao knew that Lin Xiao went to Beijing with Meng Ying and came to the Chenghuang Temple to inquire about Meng Ying's current situation.
Lin Xiaoyan hated the Yao family's ruthlessness back then, and did not give Mr. Yao a good look, so Mr. Yao came back chattering.
"What's going on with the second room of the Yao family? Has anyone entered the capital?" Meng Ying was certain that the people in that room were involved in the current gossip in the capital.
"The second house is now in a dilapidated state, and we live on a few acres of Susukino fields. I haven't heard of anyone entering Beijing."
Meng Ying told Lin Xiao what she was thinking.
"Are you saying that this Shi Lanxiu might be in the capital?"
"It is very possible that if it is her, then everything will make sense. Now that you are back, you are trying to find out who is spreading these rumors. You should also investigate the death of Butcher Sun's son.
."
"Yes."
Lin finished the novel and waved to Qinghe, "Go and pour a cup of tea for my brother. After talking for a long time, my mouth is dry."
"Just wait, I'll make the girl's new tea for you." Qinghe ran to the waiter in a hurry.
"This girl must be fourteen. We haven't seen each other for half a year, and her appearance has grown. If she is a lady, some people would believe her." Lin Xiao pointed at Qinghe's back and said.
"Well, she is a beautiful girl. You have time to help her find a good family."
Then Lin Xiao stood up, closed the window, and said, "Girl, the hairpin your mother left behind has been found."
"Seriously?"
"Well, this time I went back and met with the pawnshop owner. According to him, the hairpin was bought by the nurse of the Yong family. But the Yong family later went to Beijing. Where did they settle in the capital?
, I don’t know.”
"Oh." Meng Ying was a little disappointed. The capital is so big, finding someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack. The little flame of hope that was just ignited was extinguished before half a cup of tea.
"This matter has been going on for a long time. There is no rush now. Let's investigate slowly. It is more important to do the things I asked you first."
After a while, Qing He came up with tea. Lin Xiao finished drinking it and went down ready not to mention it.
"Why didn't you see Hongying?" Meng Ying asked Qinghe.
"Sister Hongying...is ill." Qinghe pursed his lips and smiled.
"What's the disease? Can I take medicine?" Meng Ying asked worriedly.
"Girl, listen to me." Qinghe whispered in Meng Ying's ear.
Even a person like Meng Ying, who rarely smiles, was laughing so hard.
It turned out that when Lin Xiao came back yesterday and was on the road for many days, he saw Hongying going outside the city, so he went to the wing to rest.
After Hongying learned about it, she ran to the wing, but when she reached the door of the wing, she hesitated. After a long while, she knocked on the door and ridiculed Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao and Hongying's friendship grew out of a quarrel, and they are very familiar with it.
"You haven't been willing to come back in the past six months. Could it be that you went to marry my sister-in-law?"
"Sister Hongying understands me. I have saved a little in the past few years in the capital with my daughter. This time when I returned home in fine clothes, the squire and other officials were vying to marry their daughter to me." Lin Xiao is a man with many good ideas.
Okay, but I have a bad mouth and I don’t know how to make people laugh.
"Oh, no wonder the Qiao Mo Qiao dressed up like this turned out to be lucky. I wonder which one did you fall in love with in the end?" Hongying said with her hands on her hips, doubtful.
"If you want to tell me which one I like, I am only twenty-eight years old. She is as beautiful as a peach and a plum, but she has a mouth that is not forgiving. But who can I like, brother?" After saying that, he gave Hongying a meaningful look.
Hongying, who had a temper that was easy to get into trouble, said sourly, "Congratulations to Manager Lin."
After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave, but Lin Xiao grabbed his arm and came closer and said: "Hongying, the person I like is you!"
Hongying felt ashamed and happy after hearing this.
By chance, Uncle Zhong, the concierge, walked to the door and was heard. Hongying ran away in shame. Uncle Zhong was knocked backwards.
"How hard was Uncle Zhong hit?" Meng Ying asked.
"He said that on cloudy and rainy days in the future, he would have to put on two pieces of dog-skin plaster." Qinghe bent over and imitated Uncle Zhong's words.
Meng Ying also smiled from ear to ear, "It's really hard for women to stay in college. It seems like they should get ready for their marriage."
"The relationship is good, so I have to prepare."
"Yes, you should also prepare. After finishing their happy event, it will be your turn." Meng Ying teased.
"Oh, girl, I said I wanted to prepare a congratulatory gift for the two of them."
Meng Ying kept smiling and said nothing, while Qing He covered her face in shame and ran away.
After everyone left, Meng Ying thought of the Qiu family again. She was trapped that day and did not dare to disturb Qiu Yan, who was pregnant. Now that she has a bad reputation, she is even more afraid to visit.
But I had to find an opportunity to send the tapestry quilt I made myself and the swaddling clothes from Songjiang cotton. After thinking about it, I had to ask Hongying to make a trip.
As the saying goes, the love between sisters is deep and profound, sometimes better than that of relatives and friends.
