Chapter 652

The boy said: "No, according to people in the village, Miss Xianglan has passed away."

When Xiang Lan returned to the west courtyard, she was still in a daze, and instead of going to serve Meng Mei immediately, she went back to her own room.

This is all right, why did people die?Xiangzhu has always been in good health.

The more she thought about it, the more strange and creepy she felt.

Is it because Xiangzhu knew too much, so... was silenced?Or, the girl didn't give her the remaining antidote at all?

Later, when she told Meng Mei the news, Meng Mei was also in a daze for a while, and was so sad that he even cried twice during the night.

Seeing Meng Mei's haggard and sad description, Xiang Lan felt that she might be thinking too much, and persuaded with tears, "Don't be sad, girl, she is pregnant. The slave girl wants to go back to her hometown tomorrow morning to have a look, so she can pay homage to Xiang Lan." Bamboo, it’s not in vain for a sister.”

Meng Mei nodded and said, "Go ahead, buy more paper money, and lay a share for me. I don't have anything to give her, I just have to burn some more things for her. If she still has family members, you can help her too." Let me take care of you one or two more."

As she spoke, she gave Xianglan a pouch full of silver.

On the second day, Xianglan set off for home.

Suspicious, she went to the village to see that a new grave had indeed been added.

Then Xianglan asked the villagers what was going on.

Villagers said that after Xiangzhu came back, he fell ill not long after, and it lasted for nearly a month, and his body wasted day by day before he was exhausted.

Xiangzhu died of illness, and had been ill for a month.

Xianglan thought, it seems that the antidote the girl gave Xiangzhu at the beginning was real, otherwise the poison would have occurred long ago, and how could she wait until a month later.What's more, in the next one or two months, the girl will have no chance to get in touch with Xiangzhu again.

In this way, Xianglan gradually let go of her doubts, and after paying homage to Xiangzhu full of sadness, she returned to Beijing.

As soon as Xianglan returned, Meng Mei asked eagerly, "How is it?"

Xiang Lan knelt in front of Meng Mei and said with tears in shame: "I'm sorry Miss, I thought that... Xiangzhu died of illness, and I have followed the girl's order to worship in front of her grave and take care of her family. .In the future, the slaves will also send their savings back on time."

Meng Mei said: "Do you think I harmed Xiangzhu? She has been with me for so many years, even if she makes mistakes, I will not harm her."

Xianglan wept, "I know I was wrong."

Meng Mei said: "Forget it, get up, you are not to blame for this matter. The only servant girl next to me is you, and you only have me. We should support and trust each other."

Xiang Lan nodded heavily.

Even later, there were many maidservants around Meng Mei, but Xiang Lan always stayed by Meng Mei's side loyally.

Although it was inconvenient for Meng Mei to go outing like others, she was free to enter and leave the mansion.

When going out, the butler will arrange escort maids, and the carriage is very comfortable and soft.

Meng Mei didn't go to the street for a long time, when she got to the street, she went to visit some rouge jewelry shops that she used to frequent.

In the past, she and sister Meng Shu went together, and now it is impossible for Meng Shu to go with her again, but now she goes by herself, surrounded by servants, picking what she likes, and no one will compete with her again. .

Coming out of Rouge Jewelry Store, when passing by Chen Ji Pharmacy, Meng Mei looked up at the signboard of that drugstore.

Every few days, an imperial physician from the palace would go to the Seventh Prince's Mansion to give her a routine consultation, and the anti-fetal medicine she took was also the best in the palace, so there was no need to grab the medicine outside.

The business in Chen Ji's pharmacy is very good, the doctors are busy seeing patients, the clerks are busy fetching medicines and decocting medicines, and there is an endless stream of people entering and leaving the pharmacy.

The reason why Meng Mei stopped to take a look was that she hadn't figured out why the Xia family worked as an accountant in this place before.

Not to mention that such a shop would not recruit women as accountants at all, not to mention that the Xia family is not short of money.

Then there must be some reason for the Xia family to be here.

But now the Xia family is no longer here, and the accountant has recruited a new gentleman, and Meng Mei couldn't figure it out for a while.

Meng Mei only paused for a short moment, then walked away from the door of the medicine shop in a few steps.

It's just that Xianglan saw her thoughtful, so she couldn't help but worry a little: "Could it be that the girl hasn't given up... Last time, she managed to get away with it by chance. If she finds out again, I'm afraid..."

Meng Mei said: "I want to raise my baby, stay in the moment, and don't have any extra energy to arrange other things."

She can't go head-to-head with Meng Yan, she knows very well that not only is it inconvenient to be pregnant, but also that her own deathbed is still in Meng Yan's hands.

It's just that Meng Yan has made many enemies. Even without her, can she enjoy peace?

Then I came across a shop selling children's toys on the street. There were various rattles of different sizes hanging on the door of the shop. The store has everything for children under the age of 15 to play with.

Xiang Lan was also aroused with a childlike innocence, and said: "Girl, let's go in and have a stroll too. It won't be long before we can use it."

Meng Mei, Xiang Lan and the others were on the opposite side of the street, and before they could cross the street to enter the store, at this moment, a customer in the store came out from the store after shopping, Kan Kan stepped out of the door, and walked down the steps in front of the door, Gone away.

Meng Mei watched as the strand of red clothes brushed past the threshold and in front of her eyes, like a begonia being blown by the wind, passing by without a trace.

That man's complexion seemed to overwhelm the flowers of the world, even the sons of the aristocratic families in Beijing are rarely able to match.

Not to mention that Xianglan beside her was stunned, and even the other girls beside her couldn't help but follow her eyes away.

The things that Xu Shenfang bought were carried by the attendants around him, and the attendants said: "Young master bought so much, those two young masters and young ladies are only a few months old, how can they play well. Every time I go, I will send one There are a lot, almost everything in the shop has been bought by the young master."

Xu Chenfang stroked the folding fan, and said: "Parents will choose what their children can play with, so there are so many words."

Xiang Lan only woke up after she walked away and disappeared into the crowd. When she turned her head and was about to say something to Meng Mei, Meng Mei's expression changed a few times.

Xiang Lan still expressed her doubts: "That man is so handsome, but I always feel like I've seen it somewhere before."

Meng Mei's tone was uncertain: "Last year."

How could she not remember that after Meng Shu married to the Xu family last year, Meng Yan left the Meng family, and her mother, the Tang family, was all over the street trying to find Meng Yan.

It happened that she entered the palace and was elected as the seventh prince's side concubine, and after leaving the palace with the Tang family, she ran into Meng Yan on the street, so she had such a number one person by her side.

But it was a little far away at that time, but now that Meng Mei is near, she can really see it.

He is indeed a handsome and handsome man, with every gesture, he has the ability to make the girls on the street look back frequently, blushing and heartbeating.
