Chapter 402
At the beginning of September, Li Meier and Jiang Shanqing returned to Zhangshui Town together with the Double Ninth Festival ceremony. Jiang opened a soap shop in the state capital last month. Because the shop had just opened and there were a lot of things to do, she couldn't leave, so she went Only let Jiang Shanqing accompany Li Meier back to his hometown.

After Li Meier returned to her hometown, she first gave gifts to some relatives with whom she knew each other well, and finally brought the winter clothes she made by herself to give gifts to Mrs. Zhengu.

Because they were afraid that there would be more people giving boxing gifts to Mrs. Zhen in the morning, the two chose to go in the afternoon.Unexpectedly, I still ran into an acquaintance in this way.

When Li Meier and Li Meier came to the door, Sun Zhongyuan happened to come out from Mrs. Zhengu's house.When he saw Li Meier, he showed a smile on his face, and said with some surprise: "This is really a coincidence, I didn't expect you to come here at this moment."

Li Meier didn't like him very much, thinking about the snake he gave her last time, she felt a little complicated, but she couldn't be too rude on the face, so she greeted him politely, and said in a fake manner: "Mr. Sun, It's quite a coincidence, are you leaving now, and go all the way."

Seeing Li Meier's impatient "rush" to leave, Sun Zhongyuan was a little dumbfounded, but he was not in a hurry to leave, looking at her and asked: "Do you like the things I gave you last time?"

Li Mei'er resisted the urge to complain, rolled her eyes secretly, and then said: The things you sent really shocked our family, please don't send any more weird things in the future. "

Sun Zhongyuan laughed when he heard the words, and joked: "I don't think you are afraid of snakes at all. Thinking about it, your family members are certainly not afraid. If you really scare your family members, I am here to apologize to you."

"There's no need to apologize, but I'm really not familiar with you, young master, so don't send anything in the future." Li Meier said speechlessly.

Sun Zhongyuan felt a little regretful when he heard the words, and said with a smile: "This Chongyang Festival, I got several pots of high-quality black chrysanthemums, and I planned to send a pot to your home."

Li Meier didn't dare to accept his things anymore, and besides, it was such an expensive chrysanthemum, she immediately waved her hand, "Don't do it, everyone says courtesy is reciprocal, if you send such an expensive chrysanthemum, my family has nothing to give you in return." .”

"Even if it's an apology for giving the snake last time, there's no need to return the gift." Sun Zhongyuan looked at Li Meier, with a deeper smile on his lips.

Li Meier was thinking about how to refuse, but Jiang Shanqing who was on the side already said, "Our family likes the snake that Mr. Sun gave us, and we ate it very satisfyingly. It should be our family thanking you. How can we take it away?" Your gift."

Sun Zhongyuan seemed to have noticed Jiang Shanqing who was behind Li Meier, and looked at him for a while, with a look of surprise in his eyes, but he never showed his true emotions in front of outsiders, so he didn't force himself, "That's it, then next time if I If you got any rare ingredients, please send them to your home, I know Miss Li is good at cooking, so you might as well give me a full feast."

"Sun Gongzi is absurd, how can my meager skills be put on the table." Li Mei'er said modestly, but couldn't help complaining in her heart, you are treating me as a free cook, what a beautiful idea.

Sun Zhongyuan chatted with Li Meier again and again, and then left.

Seeing him walk away, Li Meier breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed her face and said, "My face is frozen from a fake smile."

"Since you don't want to laugh, then don't laugh." Jiang Shanqing said with a slightly unhappy tone.

Li Meier turned her head to look at him, and suddenly said with some amusement: "Brother Shanqing, you don't like him."

Jiang Shanqing nodded as if he was kind, "If you look like a tiger with a smile on your face, you don't look like a good person."

"Young masters from wealthy families, they are all so virtuous, they are not as simple as us." Li Meier smiled.

"You don't have any contact with him in the future, so as not to be deceived, even if you meet him from afar, you will avoid him, do you hear me?" Jiang Shanqing asked Li Meier very seriously.

"Am I that stupid?" Li Meier asked in disbelief, her cheeks bulging.

Jiang Shanqing immediately stretched out his hand and pinched it, and said angrily, "I've been a fool since I was a child, I can't help my aunt and uncle to remind you more."

"I said you can't pinch my face! The more you pinch, the bigger it gets!" Li Mei'er became more angry, and reached out to chase Jiang Shanqing and beat her.

Sun Zhongyuan, who was about to walk out of the alley, didn't know if he heard the movement. He stopped and looked back. He saw the scene of the young boy and girl chasing and fighting. The girl with picturesque eyes seemed tired from the fight , with one hand on the boy's shoulder, gasping for breath, and beating the boy with the other hand, with a smile on his face.

The boy reached out and touched the girl's head, then took her beating his hand, and led her into the house together.

Sun Zhongyuan narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling that the picture was inexplicably an eyesore.

"The one next to Miss Li just now is the illegitimate son of the Jiang family who has been fostered by the Li family?" Sun Zhongyuan asked Wu Sheng beside him.

Wu Sheng helped Sun Zhongyuan investigate the details of the Li family, and he knew everything about the Li family well, so he nodded and replied, "Yes, young master, this Mr. Jiang is not simple, he passed the test at a young age. Mr. Zhang from Qingfeng Academy once personally invited him to study in the academy, and offered him a very generous offer, but he refused. He is now studying in Bailu Academy, and he has also worshiped Xu Daru as his teacher. He should be admitted next year. I will test the candidates next time."

"Is he also going to take the exam next year?" Sun Zhongyuan smiled, "It's a pity that he can't win three yuan in a row." After speaking, he waved his sleeves, turned and left.

On Li Meier's side, Jiang Shanqing and Mrs. Zhen had already met Mrs. Zhen. She didn't mention the matter of meeting Sun Zhongyuan at the door, but gave her the boxing ceremony and the clothes, shoes and socks she made.

Mrs. Zhen put away the things with a smile, asked Qing Yuan to take them down and put them away, and poured tea for the two of them herself. She looked at Jiang Shanqing who was beside Li Meier, and her eyes were dazed for a moment. Xu Zan said: "Shanqing has grown a lot taller, more and more outstanding."

Li Meier was a little jealous when she heard it, she hurried over and said, "Grandmother, you are so biased, I have grown a lot taller, don't you see it?"

Mrs. Zhen saw her narrow look, gave her a look, and smiled, "I can see it, I can see it, you are like a monkey all day long, jumping up and down, can you not grow taller, you are a big girl, why don't you grow taller?" I'll see who dares to marry you monkey in the future."

"No one wants the best. It's comfortable to live a clean life like your great-aunt." Li Meier said indifferently.

"All right, all right, stop talking nonsense here, if you really don't want to get married, someone will be anxious to me then." Mrs. Zhen Gu said so, and cast a teasing look at Jiang Shanqing.
