Several times in dreams

Chapter 9
Meng Wanying's face turned red.

Although she always thought that she had a thick skin, after all, except for her brothers and servants, she had never seen a young foreigner.

Especially in such a "alone" meeting, she stood up and wanted to walk away, but felt a little rude, and was at a loss for a while.

But seeing the man smiled slightly, "Miss, don't panic. It's the Republic of China now. Didn't my father say just now that although men and women don't know each other, it's normal to meet and get acquainted in public. My name is Liang Ziwen. Miss, you It belongs to Uncle Meng's family..."

"Our lady is the second miss of the Meng family, the daughter of the second master." Chunni hurriedly replied.

"Master Liang, I'm here with my uncle and my aunt."

It turned out that this was the son of County Magistrate Liang, and he hadn't noticed him in the hall just now.

Wanying saluted slightly, lowered her eyes, and glanced at the book in Liang Ziwen's hand, it turned out to be "The Art of War by Sun Tzu".

"Miss, we should go..." Chunni suddenly remembered He's instructions to her, and was a little afraid of the scene, so she tugged on Wanying's sleeve.

"Well, Young Master Liang, we are going back." Wanying said softly, she was surprised by her gentle voice.

"Okay, the third young master of the Meng family and I are classmates, namely Meng Xianchen, sister of the Meng family, your name is..."

"Meng Wanying." Before the voice fell, the person had already hurried out.

After walking a few steps, she almost stumbled on the stone steps, but fortunately Chunni held her up, Meng Wanying blushed like a red cloth, and her heart was pounding.

Fortunately, the spring breeze in the garden was still a bit chilly, and when I walked back to the side hall, people had returned to normal.

As soon as he entered the side hall, he saw that Mrs. He was chatting enthusiastically with Mrs. Lu Shenggong and several wives and ladies. Meng Wanyun was still chatting with He Qiongzhi. These two people always had endless conversations.

Seeing Wanying coming in, He's face sank, and then he forced a fake smile on his face.

"Mrs. Gongye, Mrs. Liang, Mrs. Liu, this is the girl of my second brother. The old man spoils me every day without rules, which makes everyone laugh. Wanying, I haven't been able to find you. Where have you gone?"

Wanying bowed to all the wives with a low eyebrow and softly replied: "Wanying went to the garden for a walk. Grandpa often said that the garden of the Duke's mansion is the largest and most beautiful garden with the most exotic flowers and plants in the world. Wanying This time I saw it with my own eyes, it was really a fairyland, and I almost got lost, but fortunately I found the way back, Wanying was rude."

"Look at this little mouth, you can really talk, Mrs. Meng, the girls of your Meng family are really outstanding. The eldest lady is beautiful, dignified and polite. Although the second lady is still young, she is also smart and knowledgeable. They were all well educated by your Meng family!"

Liu Yuanwai's wife praised, "I only have sons, but no daughters. I'm just envious of those of you who have daughters. Look at all the flowers and jades..."

"The young master of the Meng family is not an ordinary person. The young master is a well-known gentleman in our holy city. There is nothing to say about his literary talents and character. I don't know how many noble ladies are waiting to marry into the Meng family!" Lu Sheng The lady said with a smile.

The wives of other families also echoed and complimented, for a moment, the beauty in He's heart.

To tell the truth, she had already selected three young masters in advance, one was Liu Chenglin, the second young master of Liu Yuan's family, who was 19 years old and also attended the police school, one level higher than Meng Xianlun.

I didn't expect to come here today. He is a solid, honest child. His mother, Mrs. Liu, is very forthright and has no airs.

But Meng Wanyun didn't like it. During the exchange of greetings in the front hall, Liu Chenglin came over to greet her, but Meng Wanyun just returned the greeting lightly without saying a word.

The other one is the eldest son of the county magistrate Liang. He heard that he is very handsome, and he also came today.

At that time, several young masters gathered to discuss this year's military academy entrance examination, but they didn't come to say hello one by one. I don't know which one is Young Master Liang.

This Wanyun is most concerned with appearance and appearance, her appearance is superior to others, so the husband she chooses must not be bad.

But this Mrs. Liang is not easy to talk to, it's not that she looks down on others from above, maybe she is not easy to make friends by nature, and she talks lightly to anyone.

Even when Mrs. Lu Shenggong spoke to her, she only answered questions. Mrs. He raised the topic of their children's marriage several times, and the wives discussed it enthusiastically, but Mrs. Liang didn't say a word.

It made Mrs. He feel hairy, thinking that such a mother-in-law would be difficult to get along with in the future, and she had to make a long-term plan when she went back.

The third one, which is troublesome to think about, is Chen Xiangshen's son.

Originally, this squire had no qualifications to come to the spring banquet, but this squire Chen had once won the Juren, and he did a lot of good deeds on weekdays. He was old and rich, and he was the leader among the squires in the holy city.

What's even more strange is that although this gentleman from the countryside is old, he handles things in a very new way.

The original wife gave birth to five daughters. After Chen Xiangshen died of illness, he actually married an 18-year-old maid who made snacks in the family to fill in the house. This incident caused an uproar at the time.

The siege of the whole family failed to make him succumb, and he absolutely refused to accept that maidservant as a concubine. The matchmaker must marry her rightly. You must know that Emperor Xuantong was still in power at that time, tsk tsk...

Later, Mrs. Zhang, who filled the house, gave birth to three sons and a daughter to the master. Chen Xiangshen was so happy from ear to ear, and told everyone how wise he was back then.

To talk about such a family, the He family doesn't think about it at all.

But I heard that the young master of the Chen family is a talented person. Although he is only 15 years old, but the place in the holy city is full of female juniors holding gold bricks. And I don't know a single word, the first five aunts are already married, and the younger siblings are still young, isn't all this wealth in the hands of my daughter?

In the final analysis, such a marriage is a bit of a drop in value, or it is not appropriate. Looking at other families, either the mother-in-law is fierce, or the family background is unstable, and there are more restless homes.

When I came here, I thought that it would be easy to pick a satisfactory son-in-law based on Wan Yun's appearance, but I didn't expect it to be so simple. Thinking of this, He's heart was broken, and he still talked to Mrs. Liang again.

"Oh, Mrs. Liang, I heard that your son is handsome and capable of both civil and military affairs. I wonder if we have made a marriage agreement?"

He's face was full of smiles, but in his heart he scolded himself for falling in value, there was nothing he could do, it was all because of the debts of his children.

Mrs. Liang really had to answer this question, she smiled faintly, "Not yet, my son has a big heart, he practices martial arts every day, and he wants to start a career before starting a family. We also support him very much. After all, the big man has ambitions everywhere Well."

This answer is equivalent to closing the door without leaving a single crack.

He's face was ashamed, and he couldn't turn his face, which would be even more embarrassing, so he had to bite the bullet and smile dryly, "It's good for a man to aim everywhere. The son of my third brother also studies hard at home every day, practicing martial arts. Military academy, becoming a general in the future, all good, all good!"

Mrs. Liang smiled lightly again, which was considered an answer.

He's so angry, on the way back, even Wanying didn't shy away from it, and scolded Meng Wanyun all the way.

"Isn't the magistrate's wife amazing? I, He Jinlian, have never suffered from such a useless attitude since I was a child. If she wasn't for the county magistrate's wife, I would have slapped her long ago!"

Seeing Meng Wanying secretly looking at her, she immediately cast fire on Wanying's head, "What are you looking at, damn girl, are you very happy? Huh? Don't let me catch your fault, don't look at your grandfather protecting you!" Looking at you, sooner or later... he will piss me off!"

"Auntie, calm down, Wanying didn't mean that, maybe Mrs. Liang didn't underestimate our Meng family, maybe they really don't want to get married now, look at the third brother, he is not in a hurry to get married, he is only thinking about the military academy, It would be great if the third brother really becomes a general in the future."

"Fuck, he's going to be admitted to the military academy? I don't know how careful his parents are? It's just seeing that your second brother went to the police academy, and he was unwilling. Your third aunt got close to me several times, so she wanted to let your second brother Does uncle help Xianchen to go to school? She doesn't even think about it, how can it be so easy? See what other people do and she will do it, cut!"

"Okay, mother, don't talk about it!" Meng Wanyun, who hadn't said anything, said contemptuously.

"Mother, you don't know. In fact, I don't like these local turtles in the holy city at all. The son of the county magistrate, the son of a non-officer, cut it! You don't know, Qiongzhi told me about the life of the big Shanghai, that is the life of a human being." Well, look at her Qiongzhi, what she wears is so foreign, it doesn't look like us, it's so rustic!" After finishing speaking, she even looked at Wanying intentionally or unintentionally, with extreme contempt.

Wanying lowered her eyes and stopped talking. In front of her was a young man smiling. His eyes were so bright, like stars in the sky.

"What's so happy about it?" That clear voice kept ringing in her ears, so nice and sweet, Wanying smiled in her heart.

　I am very sorry, a friend reminded me that the two surnames of Confucius and Mencius generally cannot marry, so I changed the surname of the Kong family to the Liang family, and I apologize to readers, I did not think carefully.
