Chapter 145 The Teenager's Mind
Coming out of Meng's house, it was the time when there were many people on the street, and the carriage moved very slowly.

Xu Chunjun asked Jiang Nuan: "I didn't expect that your uncle's family lived so simply."

After hearing this, Jiang Nuan said, "It's only been ten years since their family regained their titles. Didn't they get assigned earlier? Although they have titles after they come back, they are not high-ranking officials, so their salary is limited. Besides, although there are some rewards The land property, but the two uncles have been officials for several years, and they have made a lot of losses. Afraid of being investigated by the superiors, they sold a lot of the land property to make up the hole. Their family has a large population, and several juniors grow up. , it’s dowry, and dowry. You have to save some money in advance, otherwise what will you do when the time comes? It’s really hard for every family to recite.”

"That's right, you don't know how expensive a family is if you don't manage it. With such a big Earl's Mansion, even if you save money every day, you still have to spend more than a dozen taels of silver. In fact, there are not a few people in the capital like theirs. " Xu Chunjun smiled, "It's like the Zheng family, it's not as good as them!"

"Although the Zheng family is not as good as the Meng family, when my sister gets married, the world will definitely change." Jiang Nuan and You Rongyan said, "As the saying goes, you can't eat poorly, you can spend endlessly, and you can't be poor if you can't figure it out. You have a sister Such a baby, still worried about not having a good life?"

"You didn't come here to entertain me, so I remembered to ask you. The second girl Meng doesn't know how old she is, and when is her birthday. Is she older than me?" Xu Chunjun asked Jiang Nuan.

Meng Qiao often went to Jiang's house, not to mention that Meng was her aunt, and she often mentioned it in daily conversations, and Jiang Nuan knew it when she listened.

So he said: "She and her elder sister Tonggeng, their birthday is in June."

After hearing this, Xu Chunjun stopped talking.

After a while, he suddenly said to Jiang Nuan: "After the Fourth Sister's May Seventh, I still have to visit Yunchu. Do you want to go with me?"

"Why are you going to see her again?" Jiang Nuan was a little puzzled, "But what's the matter?"

"It should be counted." Xu Chunjun didn't make it too clear, "You will know when the time comes."

Yongxian County Prince's Mansion.

Zeng Nan hasn't gone out for several days.

It wasn't because of fear, the assassin had already been caught and sent to the government, not to mention he was not injured.

"Second brother, why are you still here in a daze? There is a lotus flower in the pond in the backyard that is about to bloom, why don't you go and have a look?" Zeng Ci walked over with a smile and said, "Could it be that you are still thinking about Meng Meng?" The one at home?"

Zeng Nan couldn't help but blushed, and she stood up and said, "Don't entertain me."

In fact, Zeng Ci was not wrong, he was indeed thinking about Meng Qiao.It happened suddenly that day, and when he turned around, Meng Qiao was already injured.

Before he could react, Meng Qiao had already fallen into his arms.

Afterwards, everyone subdued the madman, and Meng Qiao's blood had already soaked his clothes.

Her complexion was pale, dripping with cold sweat, but she still managed to squeeze out a smile to comfort him: "It's okay, Second Young Master, don't panic."

Somebody reminded her that Zeng Nan just woke up and rushed forward with her in his arms, going to find the doctor.

"Second... son..., you... slow down... be careful... be careful of falling." Meng Qiao was getting weaker and weaker, but she still cared about him.

"Miss Meng, thank you." Zeng Nan felt very sorry.

The madman just now was clearly restrained by the crowd, but he still wanted to kill all Zeng's family members.

If it wasn't for Meng Qiao, then the knife would have been stabbed in his body.

Zeng Nan had never paid attention to Meng Qiao before, she was not the most outstanding in appearance, besides, she didn't like so-called talented women.

But he never thought that Meng Qiao would block the knife for him, which can be regarded as a great kindness.

"Second...Young Master, don't...say that." Meng Qiao became weaker and was about to faint, "I...as long as you...promise...I...one...thing."

"Okay! Say it! If I can do it, I will definitely promise you." Zeng Nan replied.

"You...be nice...well...don't...feel...guilty...for me," Meng Qiao said more and more difficultly, "I'm...willing...willingly...to save you... , you...don't owe...I...what...as long as...you...it's okay...it's okay..."

After Meng Qiao finished speaking, she rolled her eyes and passed out. Zeng Nan shouted loudly, "Miss Meng! Miss Meng, wake up!"

At that moment, he felt that Meng Qiao was already dead, shed so much blood, it must be a disaster.

He just felt dizzy and almost fell to the ground.

Afterwards, whoever caught up with him took Meng Qiao from his hand.

Later, his elder brother Zeng Li came over to support him.

"Brother..." Zeng Nan was dumbfounded, staring straight ahead, even though the front was blurred, "She won't die, will she?"

Eighteen or nineteen-year-old boys always feel far away from life and death.

I never thought that I would experience such a dangerous moment, let alone that a woman who had nothing to do with me would actually block the knife for me.

He couldn't tell what he wanted in his heart, but Meng Qiao's pale and delicate face when he was injured always flashed before his eyes.

After the Zeng family knew about this, they immediately invited the imperial doctor, and sent many supplements and thank you gifts.

The prince and princess personally came to the door to thank them, and of course they also brought Zeng Nan with them.

It's just that he didn't see Meng Qiao again.

The Zeng family was very reasonable and returned all the gifts, leaving only the supplements.

Although the elders in the family said that they would definitely compensate the Meng family, he always felt that he still owed Meng Qiao something.

"Second brother, I want to ask you something." Zeng Ci said, shaking Zeng Nan's arm lightly.

"Oh, what's the matter?" Zeng Nan recovered.

"Are you tempted by the Meng family?" Zeng Ci asked with a smile.

"Nothing." Although Zeng Nan said so, his ears were still red.

"You can't tell lies by nature," Zeng Ci said with a smile, "It's a pity that her background is a bit low."

The Meng family is just an earl, and Meng Qiao is a concubine.

Although Zeng Nan is a concubine, his biological mother is also the daughter of a fifth-rank official family, not to mention the family status of the county prince's mansion is much higher than that of the earl's mansion.

The prince only has these two sons, so of course he has to choose a wife from thousands of choices.

Moreover, although Zeng Nan is a concubine, he is also a good-looking talent, and he has a blind date with his elder brother Zeng Li, and his future fortune will never be low.

The lotus leaves in the pond are next to each other, and there are already many buds, but only one blooms.

"Why didn't Ah Nian come out today?" Zeng Nan thought of another younger sister, "I remember you and her love lotus the most."

"That's right, flowers and leaves don't match each other in the world. Flowers put into golden pots and leaves become dust." Zeng Ci smiled slightly, and recited her favorite poem, "There are only green lotus and red hanju, whose branches and leaves are so innocent."

A dragonfly flew over and landed cautiously on a lotus that was about to open.

Zeng Ci frowned in disgust, but Zeng Nan didn't see it.
