Chapter 142
Li Mei'er didn't understand why Jiang Shanqing reacted so strongly, but he thought he was kind, and it was all for his own sake, so she nodded and said, "I know, I just don't want to marry Brother Qi."

Jiang Shanqing nodded in satisfaction, got up and went back to her bedroom.

Before the Double Ninth Festival, the lady-in-law that Mrs. Li spoke of returned to Zhangshui Town. Although she came back from the capital, she kept a low profile. It took several days for everyone to arrive before Mrs. Li got the news.

That day Li Meier was picking out the chrysanthemums to be worn on the Double Ninth Festival, so Jiang hurried over to greet her, "Follow me back to the room and change clothes."

Li Meier thought that her mother was going to take her back to her grandmother's house again, so she immediately regained her spirits, "Mother, shall we go to my grandmother's house?"

"No, didn't you just go back a few days ago, to the aunt your grandmother mentioned last time." Mrs. Jiang grabbed Li Meier by the collar of her clothes and slipped her into the house.

Li Meier lost all energy in an instant, and murmured listlessly, "I don't want to go, mother, go by yourself, I'll go and play with Sister Yuan later."

Jiang didn't care whether Li Meier was willing or not, she immediately changed her clothes for going out forcefully, and after dressing her up in a round and cute way, she led her to Mrs. Li's place with satisfaction.

Seeing Li Meier's listless look, Mrs. Jiang couldn't help admonishing her: "What do you look like, why are you pouting, mother and grandmother are all for your own good."

"Then you should treat me a little bit worse." Li Meier muttered with frustration.

"I think you are itchy and want to be beaten." Mrs. Jiang felt that the girl's attitude was very problematic, so she put her hips on her hips and asked, "Are you going directly, or do you want to go after you have been beaten?"

Li Mei'er was speechless for a while, but surrendered helplessly, "I'll go, why don't I go?"

While the mother and daughter were talking, they came to Mrs. Li's room, and Mrs. Li told her again, "When you get to your grandmother Zhen, remember to be sweeter. Aren't you very good at talking on weekdays? Don't lose your temper when the time comes." chain."

That aunt's single name is a precious word, and her seniority is also Li Meier's grandmother's generation.

"Oh~" Li Meier replied reluctantly, she wished she was a little dumber now.

"If you let me know that you behaved badly on purpose, I won't punish you after all." Mrs. Li saw Li Meier's reluctance, and threatened with her eyes wide open.

Li Mei'er could only respond again, but she thought in her heart that how she behaved was her own business, and her grandmother would have nothing to do with it, at worst she would be beaten up.

Mrs. Zhen's current residence is the old house left by her parents, and it is also the only property she has not sold. After all, it is an ancestral house with memories between her and her parents, so she is reluctant to sell it.

The house is not far from Li's house, and it can be reached by walking, so Jiang led Li Meier to walk, she is a meticulous person, although she doesn't carry her daughter to walk, but she knows that her calves are short, so she didn't walk fast , in order to follow Li Meier's small steps.

Li Meier was downcast when she first left the house, but now she has recovered a lot. She was still a little curious about that grandmother Zhen, so she asked Jiang: "Mother, what do you think Aunt Zhen looks like? She came from the palace. Come out, isn't it very beautiful?"

Mrs. Jiang had never met Li Zhen before, so she just smiled and replied: "Madam Zhen is our elder, we can't comment casually, since she is a person from the palace, her bearing must be extraordinary."

She thought in her heart that if she could be selected into the palace, her appearance would definitely not be bad, but that Aunt Zhen was about the same age as her mother-in-law, even if she was a beauty when she was young, she is at most a temperamental old lady now.

Li Meier nodded thoughtfully, thinking that she must be different from the country old lady like her grandmother.

The mother and daughter talked, and went for a walk to the place where Mrs. Zhengu lived.

After all, Li Mei'er was young, and besides, Qiuhuo hadn't passed yet, and the distance was not far away, but her forehead was sweating and her face was flushed.

The two of them just stood at the door, and before they knocked, the door opened from the inside, and a little maid about twelve or thirteen years old walked out. The little maid seemed to be out to dispose of garbage. She was holding a wooden bucket in her hand. The mother and daughter outside the door were taken aback for a moment, and then asked with a smile: "Are you two members of the Li family? Are you here to visit my wife?"

I think there are many people who have come to visit Mrs. Zhen in the past two days, and the little maid is used to it.

"This girl, my husband's name is Li Yan. He is the fifth eldest in the clan. He is the grandnephew of Mrs. Zhen. I wonder if Mrs. Aunt is at home? Can you introduce us to our mother and daughter?" Mrs. Jiang immediately reported her family background, very excited asked politely.

"Wait here, I'll ask my wife." The little maid was used to being visited these two days, so she put down the wooden barrel in her hand and turned around to enter the house.

About half a quarter of an hour later, she turned around, smiled and said to Jiang Shi: "Come with me, Madam invites you in."

Jiang's heart was overjoyed, so she pulled Li Mei'er and quickly followed the maid.

As soon as I entered the gate of Mrs. Zhen's house, I went around the screen wall, and I saw a piece of emerald green. Looking closely, it turned out to be the shade covered by a large loofah trellis.

And under the loofah stand, an old woman in a blue dress was sitting. The old woman was rocking back and forth with the rocking chair under her body, and the big banana leaf fan in her hand was shaking with the swing of the rocking chair. Cool off in the afternoon.

Mrs. Jiang knew that this was Mrs. Zhengu. She looked at Mrs. Zhengu's appearance carefully, and couldn't help admiring in her heart. She was clearly at the age of knowing her destiny, but her skin was still fair and delicate, only a little bit of it was on the corners of the eyes and forehead. Fine lines, beautiful features, and the elegance of the gestures make people understand that what time bestows on women is definitely more than old age.

At this moment, Mrs. Jiang had the same thought as Li Meier. Although this Mrs. Zhen is about the same age as Li Laoniang, Li Laoniang's temperament is simply incomparable with her.

When Mrs. Zhen saw Jiang's mother and daughter, she paused her hands and closed her fan. She was very kind and asked with a smile, "Are you the daughter-in-law of the third brother's family?" He is Mrs. Jane's cousin.

Mrs. Jiang led Li Meier, Fushen bowed to Aunt Zhen, and replied, "Well, Auntie, you are talking about my father-in-law."

Mrs. Zhen nodded, looked at Jiang's mother and daughter carefully for a while, and then smiled and praised: "Third brother is very lucky to marry such a handsome wife for his son, but unfortunately I didn't have time to see him for the last time, remember When my brother and sister were young, he would often buy me sweets to eat."

Mrs. Zhen seemed to be caught in the memory, with a dazed look on her face.
