From the ashes: Return of the General

Chapter 819
Seeing him as a brother and never blaming him, Mei Xin said magnanimously: "I don't remember what happened back then. The third brother must have a business to enter the palace, don't delay here, go quickly."

The cold wind was blowing on her face and it was bitingly cold, Mei Xin saw that Yun Luo was coming and prepared to go back.

Thinking of the business, Kou Zhenhai hurriedly handed the box that he had been holding in his hand to her and said: "My uncle was not there when the two children were born, and now I see them. This is my greeting gift to them."

A box of various colored glazed beads, which he liked to play with most when he was a child, thought that all children would like them, so he hurriedly sent them over.

Seeing that he really put it down like this, Mei Xin took it for the two children and said, "Thank you third brother, everyone has been busy lately, and I'll treat you to a drink after the enthronement ceremony is over."

Glad he let go, and happy to be friends with him again, as free as ever.

Kou Zhenhai said with a smile on his face, "Okay, then I'll wait. It's windy by the lake, don't catch a cold, go back quickly."

He waved goodbye and he left. Yun Luo came and saluted, "Young General, Mrs. Zongzheng Hou, please see me."

There is probably no one who would dislike someone with a personality like Bai Yulan, especially Mei Xin, who lacked maternal love since she was a child, and she gave her an indescribable intimacy.

Probably guessing what she was talking about, Mei Xin ordered lightly: "You take the two children back first, and I'll be back in a while."

Yun Luo said yes, saluted and resigned, turned around and went to find Nanny Sun and the others.

Mei Xin went back half an hour later, and before entering the door, she heard a burst of laughter. Seeing that Bai Yulan and the two children were having a good time, she stopped and said, "Go to the small kitchen and let the old lady use it at noon." Lunch. She likes the dishes from the south, so she asked Mrs. Li to cook more."

After finishing speaking, he raised his steps and continued to move forward.

Inside, Magnolia was playing happily with her two grandchildren in her arms, when she suddenly heard "The princess is back" and hurriedly stood up.

Mei Zishuo liked the fringe on her dress, so she grabbed it tightly and kept pulling it down, so that the maid couldn't even hug her, so she could only continue to hug her in the end.

Saluting and asking for peace, she felt uneasy, Bai Yulan held the child and looked up at Mei Xin, suddenly at a loss for what to do.

As a general in the army, Mei Xin has accumulated prestige for a long time, plus she is a person who kills on the battlefield, and now she wears a lot of make-up, without anger and prestige, as soon as she enters Bai Yulan, she feels that even the atmosphere has changed.

The imposing manner was overwhelming, but Mei Xin didn't feel it at all. Not only did she not feel that she hadn't changed at all since the Mei family gained power and entered the palace, she was still the same as before.

I don't know why Bai Yulan is so nervous. It is completely different from the easy-going and cordiality when we met before. She smiled lightly and said, "The children should be hungry after playing for so long. Let's carry them down and feed them porridge."

Nanny Sun took the order, took out Mei Zishuo's favorite little wooden horse to coax him, and took him away when he let go.

As the two children and the maids who served them withdrew, the hall quickly fell silent.The atmosphere was somewhat dignified, Mei Xin sat down first and said, "Sit down, old lady, let's serve tea."

Zixue took the lead and immediately went to brew a cup of Yuqian Longjing, which was heard to be Magnolia's favorite tea.

The fragrance of tea was refreshing, and Mei Xin took the lead to pick up the teacup and said, "Old lady, please drink tea."

Nodding and smiling, Magnolia picked up the teacup, and when she smelled the fragrance of Longjing before the rain, she felt relieved.Feeling that he might have come to the right place this time, he put it down after taking two sips of tea and said, "Princess really knows how to teach children, and both children are raised very well."

Mei Xin modestly put down the teacup in her hand and said, "It's all thanks to the Empress Dowager. If she hadn't pointed Nanny Sun to serve me, the two children would not have been taken care of so well. How about the Empress Dowager and Lord Ren?" , are you used to living in the Hou Mansion?"

As soon as they entered Beijing, another mansion was given to Zongzheng Wanyin, mother and son to live in, but they didn't go to live there, but went to Zongzheng Hou's mansion as soon as they entered Beijing.

According to Zongzheng Wanyin, she wanted to spend more time with her mother, and they would leave after the enthronement ceremony, so there was no need to move around.Therefore, no one asked them to live in the rewarded mansion, everything was up to them, as long as they lived comfortably.

Hearing her words, it seemed as if she was still thinking about her original friendship, and the uneasy Bai Yulan instantly became a little less restrained and nervous, and replied truthfully: "Princess Lao cares about it, it's very good, and I'm used to living in it. "

Waving her hand to signal for tea, Mei Xin said: "That's good, just get used to it. The old lady eats tea, she said that the new chef from the imperial dining room cooks southern dishes, and the old lady tastes how it tastes."

As soon as he entered the palace yesterday, his father offered her something to eat. She ate it pretty well, with a faint tea fragrance, and the taste was quite good.

Pretending in her heart that nothing tastes good to eat, seeing her holding her breath, she didn't mention a word about the previously agreed marriage, Bai Yulan casually ate two mouthfuls and then put it down and said: "It's been so long since I thought Her Highness would still be here. Remembering my wife's taste, my wife is really flattered."

Waving her hand to indicate that it was nothing, Mei Xin smiled and invited her to drink tea again.

She couldn't drink it anymore, her stomach was full of words and her throat was almost overflowing, she turned her head to look at the maids standing on both sides and said: "I have something to say to the princess when I enter the palace, I don't know..."

After hesitating to speak, Mei Xin understood.After waving for everyone to leave, she put down the teacup in her hand and said, "Madam, please tell me."

Standing up and kneeling down, Bai Yulan blurted out: "My wife dares to ask the princess whether what she said that day is still true, and whether she is willing to marry the Zongzhenghoufu?"

Mei Xin originally thought that she entered the palace in a hurry to see the two children, but who would have thought that she came here for this matter.Surprised, he hurriedly avoided her kneeling, stretched out his hand to support her and said, "I'm young, and I really can't stand the old lady's bow. If you have anything to say, let's sit down and talk."

Helping her to sit down, Mei Xin returned to her original position.Seeing her staring at her intently, she smiled wryly and said: "The Zongzheng Hou's Mansion and the Mei family are also considered family friends, so you should know the Mei family's temper. Don't worry."

She has never thought of regretting the marriage, but she, a girl, cannot always bring up major marriage matters first.Therefore, she could only wait, wait for Zongzheng Mingzhen to propose marriage to her father, and wait for him to marry.

Hearing what she said about Magnolia's hunger all night, his heart instantly returned to his stomach, and he said with relief: "Because I didn't say when before, the minister's wife is very anxious, so she came here rashly, please forgive me, princess. "

When we met for the first time, I knew how much she wanted to hold a grandson. Mei Xin understood, and said with a slight smile: "It's okay, the old lady's straightforward temper is very congenial to me. I like it and it's too late. How can I blame you. The old lady doesn't have to think too much, let alone Take it to heart."
