Chapter 76

Ming Yu saw that he was looking at her passionately, but with a hint of depression, as if there were countless things to say, but she still couldn't speak after all.

She suddenly thought of the wedding date that the two parents had just set for herself and him yesterday.In less than half a year, she and him will really become husband and wife...

She suddenly felt like she was still in a dream.

Jiang Kui finally saw Ming Yu, his eyes lit up, and he waved to her.

It seemed that Xie Zuiqiao had persuaded his grandfather to go back before him, which saved her a lot of talking.

Ming Yu took a deep breath and walked slowly towards the two of them.

"Girl Yu, you came just in time. I was about to send someone to find you," Jiang Kui said.

Ming Yu stopped a few steps in front of the two of them, nodded and saluted Xie Zuiqiao who had been watching her, and then he seemed to be startled, and turned sideways to avoid it hastily.Ming Yu immediately noticed that there seemed to be a slight blush on his handsome face, and suddenly felt like laughing again, so she quickly held back, turned to look at Jiang Kui, and said with a smile, "What does Grandpa want me for?"

"It's not the old man An!" Jiang Kui approached Ming Yu with a look of resignation, "Originally, I wouldn't back down even if I was beaten to death, but who told him to have a grandson like Zuiqiao who is my favorite?" I'm getting old, and I can't bear to see the younger generation in such a difficult situation, so I decided to go to the door with a large number of adults to coax that old man An. I just need to let old man An know what my granddaughter Jiang Kui is like, so that he doesn't think it's true. I have the cheek to stick up and be his in-laws! Come on, grandpa will take you to meet that old man An!"

Ming Yu was a little embarrassed, and unconsciously turned her eyes to Xie Zuiqiao again.He seemed to have returned to his usual calm look, only his eyes were brighter.Seeing her turn to him, there was a rippling in his heart, and he said softly: "My grandfather wants to see you. You can go down, okay?"

His voice was mellow and gentle, with a slight hint of pleading, Ming Yu's heart softened in a mess, she didn't dare to look into his eyes anymore, she hurriedly lowered her eyelids, and said in a low voice: "I... have to tell my mother first. "

"Let the girl go and talk about it. Grandfather took you there, and he was afraid that you would lose it! Let's go now."

Jiang Kui yelled and went forward.

Knowing that he was impatient, Ming Yu had no choice but to ask Dan Lan to talk to Jiang Shi, and she and Chun Yuan followed.

An Zaishan also lives in Xie's Mansion at the South Gate.Although they only stayed for a few days, Mrs. Xie specially packed out a quiet courtyard with her upper room.

Ming Yu entered Xie's mansion, according to the etiquette, first went to pay homage to Mrs. Xie to explain the purpose of coming, and then followed Jiang Kui into Anzaishan's courtyard.Even though Xie Zuiqiao was engaged to her, it was not good for him to follow her all the time and avoid her.

Ming Yu smelled the faint scent of tea from a distance, walked around a grape arbor, and suddenly saw an old man in cloth clothes sitting on an armchair, with a soup bottle on the ginger-cast copper stove beside him , the mouth of the bottle was slightly steaming, and he was squinting his eyes slightly to wait for the water to boil, looking contented.

"You old ghost, I also said that you are so angry that you don't think about eating and drinking, so you are hiding here so carefree!"

Jiang Kui approached, opened his eyes wide and said.

Only then did An Zaishan opened his eyes, glanced at him, and snorted, "Do you think I'm as small as you?"

"I came here to keep you because your grandson found me and begged me repeatedly. You don't know what to do."

Hearing this, An Zaishan raised his eyebrows and straightened his back.

As soon as the two of them met, they would fight again without saying a word.Ming Yu ignored it, seeing that the water in the teapot had boiled to the point where it was bubbling, she lightly rolled up her sleeves and went straight to the tea table, took two pointed teacups, washed them with sand-made tea, and took another tea The ladle picked some tea leaves, and seeing that it was tea, I made it according to the method of brewing this tea. After the soup drained out and turned a greenish yellow color, I poured two cups, and then said with a smile: "The two old people are thirsty even if they want to come here. I'm getting dry, stop moistening the mouthpiece for a while, and then argue slowly, okay?"

It was only then that An Zaishan seemed to have noticed Ming Yu, turned his head to look at her, and said hesitantly, "You..."

"She is my granddaughter! I brought it here specially for you to see!"

Jiang Kui said triumphantly.

Ming Yu hurriedly greeted An Zaishan, served the tea himself, and said with a smile, "My grandfather has lived in Meng County for many years. I have been by his side since I was a child, and I have never heard him persuade anyone. , only Mr. An is often mentioned. He said that Mr. An is unparalleled in the world. I have also studied the booklets written by Mr. An before, but my talent is limited, and I can't understand it. This time, Mr. Jiang went to Jiangzhou personally. Be sure to spare some time, I also want to ask the boss more."

An Zaishan was taken aback, he didn't expect Jiang Kui to praise him behind his back, he seemed a little embarrassed to glance at him from the sideways, and seeing that even such a girl knew his own works, he couldn't help feeling complacent, the unhappiness just now disappeared a lot, Chao Mingyu smiled and said: "You girl, you are more sensible than your grandfather! He has a big beard, but he only studies how to use fake chess to deceive people!"

Seeing Jiang Kui's eyes widen again, Ming Yu quickly laughed and said, "Speaking of which, it was indeed my grandfather's fault. I only know that he has played a lot of chess records over the years, and there are many subtle games among them. I have no match for sighing, and I have been waiting impatiently for the old man to come to visit. Now that the old man is here, why don't you come to my grandfather's Bailuzhai, the two of you go to Xiling Mountain to visit monks and watch the scenery every sunny day, and cook tea in the hut every rainy day Chess, wouldn’t it be fun to bicker when you’re bored?”

An Zaishan stroked his beard, he laughed, nodded and said: "Not bad, not bad. You are not only beautiful, but also interesting in your speech. It's strange that my stupid bridge would eat his father for you a whip."

This time it was Ming Yu's turn to be surprised, hesitantly said: "He..." But the latter words could not be uttered.

"When his father just came back, he got angry and punished him to kneel in the clan room and have a beating. I'm not here. If I was, I can stop him." An Zaishan said casually, and turned to Jiang Kui, " Mr. Jiang, for your granddaughter's sake, I won't argue with you today."

Jiang Kui snorted and went to pour tea.An Zaishan seemed to be in a good mood, looked at Ming Yu with a smile and said, "Girl Yu, what did you keep calling me just now?"

Ming Yu's face became slightly hot, and he called "grandfather" to him.An Zaishan glanced at Jiang Kui and burst out laughing.

Not to be outdone, Jiang Kui immediately said, "That grandson of yours has already called me grandpa many times, and I'm not at a loss either!"

So far, the two old friends have finally turned their hostility into friendship.Ming Yu accompanied them to watch the two of them play a game of chess again. At this time, Xie Mingrou and Xie Jingzhu, who heard she was coming, came to find her. Ming Yu said goodbye to the two elders and went to her room.

She was still thinking about the news she heard from An Zai in the mountain pass, and just now she wanted to ask more clearly, but she couldn't open her mouth.Now that I had some free time, I quietly asked Xie Jingzhu again.

Xie Jingzhu remembered that her brother told her not to mention it to Ming Yu, so she kept holding back.Seeing that she already knew, she also put aside what my brother said, and said: "My grandfather said it was true, that is, what happened a month and a half ago. As soon as my father came home, he lost his temper and punished my brother to kneel on the ground. I went into the clan house and told him to take off his clothes and slap him on the back. My father was very angry and hit hard. He was supposed to smack a hundred times. I hid outside the door and saw his back seemed to be slapped He was stubborn, he just didn’t beg for mercy. That lash seemed to hit my heart, I was about to cry, I couldn’t take it anymore, so I rushed over and said something for him In a word. Fortunately, my father listened to my words and let him go, and fined him to kneel for an hour. It took him a lot of days to get better, and the scars probably haven’t disappeared yet. If it’s really smoked a hundred times, I don’t know What will it be..." Xie Jingzhu still has lingering fears when she recalled the scene that day.

"By the way, Sister Ruan, my brother specifically told me not to tell you, probably because he was afraid that you would be sad if you found out. I didn't say anything at all, but since you already know, I will tell you. My brother ...He really takes you, Sister Ruan, very seriously..."

Xie Jingzhu hesitated for a while, and finally added the last sentence.

Mingyu felt as if a five-flavored bottle had been knocked over in her heart. She remembered that when she saw him in the care garden this morning, his face was full of surprises and his smile was bright. At that time, she really never dreamed that he would suffer such for herself corporal punishment, but he still doesn't want to let himself know.

"Your brother...really..."

She murmured in a low voice, but didn't know what to say to him.

Xie Jingzhu tilted her head to look at her, suddenly laughed, leaned into her ear and whispered: "Sister Ruan, although my brother didn't say it, I know that he must really want to be alone with you. In the past, I naturally I don't know. But now that you are both engaged, how about you and him find a chance to meet? I guess he must have a lot to say to you. Otherwise, we will return to Beijing in two days. See you next time , but it will be half a year later. Sister Ruan, please take pity on my brother..."

Xie Jingzhu grabbed her hand and shook it coquettishly.

Ming Yu's mind reappeared in Mingyu's mind when he looked at her passionately but suppressed eyes, and Xie Jingzhu said that his face was flushed, his heart was pounding, he hesitated for a moment, finally nodded slightly, and said in a low voice: "I It would be nice to say thank you to him."

Xie Jingzhu smiled, thought for a while and said: "My brother is still living in Yuyuan these days. Tomorrow we will go with my father to pay respects to my mother and there is no time. Then the day after tomorrow, I will find an excuse to say that I will go to Yuyuan to play and invite you Let's go together."

Not a moment after the two made an agreement, Chun Yuan came over and said that the old man was leaving, and Ming Yu got up to say goodbye.During the short time when he was sent out, he saw Xie Zuiqiao saying goodbye to his grandfather, but his eyes kept looking at him. The melancholy in his expression couldn't be concealed, and he was suddenly moved. When he got on the carriage, he couldn't help but Smiled back at him.Spotted by Jiang Kui's sharp eyes, he heard him cough and hurriedly turned around and got into the carriage.

The carriage headed towards Ruan's house, Jiang Kui shook his head and sighed, "It's really a girl who doesn't want to stay."

Although Mingyu had a past in her previous life, she only felt such a sweet state of mind, but she really only experienced it at this moment, her face flushed red, and the tenderness of her little daughter came out at once, and she leaned against Jiang Kui and bowed her head in embarrassment. language.Jiang Kui laughed loudly, patted her hand, and said, "Don't be ashamed, don't be ashamed. The Drunken Bridge really suits my heart. If it wasn't for him asking for marriage, Grandpa would really not have given you up so early. Woolen cloth."

Xie Zuiqiao watched the Ruan family's carriage go away, thinking that in two days he would go north with his father again, although he was already engaged to her, getting married would be in the second half of the year.I'm afraid I just said goodbye, the next time I see you will be the time of the wedding.The smile she had just looked back appeared in front of her eyes again, her heart felt sweet, but also a little bit melancholy, she stood still for a while, until she could no longer see the carriage, and then went inside.

"elder brother."

He was about to find his grandfather when he suddenly heard Xie Jingzhu's voice behind him, turned around and said with a smile, "What's the matter?"

"Brother..." Xie Jingzhu came to him, tilted her head and said with a smile: "If I helped you a lot, how should you thank me?"

Xie Zuiqiao saw that her usually quiet sister was also showing a playful look at this moment, so she couldn't help laughing and said, "Let's talk about it first, what kind of work is it?"

"Come with ears!"

Xie Jingzhu waved to him.

Seeing her mysterious, Xie Zuiqiao held back his smile, and really bent down.

"Brother, I invited Sister Ruan to accompany me to the Yu Garden in the future, so remember to avoid it."

Xie Jingzhu said seriously.

Xie Zuiqiao was startled, and when he saw the smile shining in Xie Jingzhu's eyes, he suddenly understood, stood still in a daze, and his heartbeat accelerated for a while.

Xie Jingzhu thought he was really frightened by himself, and hurriedly said: "I didn't tell you the truth just now, brother, don't scold me. I really can't bear to ask my brother to go to the south of the Yangtze River again, so I asked sister Ruan to accompany me in the future." I went there. She accepted me. When my brother sees her, he hastened to say everything he wanted to say. "

Xie Zuiqiao suppressed the excitement in his heart, finally stretched out his hand, gently rubbed her forehead hair, and said with a smile: "Ghost girl, brother remembers your love!"
