Meng Qianqian was wearing a blue and white wide-sleeved, waisted silk dress, which looked like the clear sky after the rain, with blue sky and white clouds, refreshing and refreshing.

The breeze blew gently, lifting her ink-black hair. She sat there quietly, with a serene temperament. No matter how you looked at her, she looked like the daughter of a wealthy family.

Yu was suddenly stunned.

But after looking twice more, she recognized Meng Qianqian.

She had actually recognized her in the alley that day. She knew her daughter would not give up, but she just didn't expect that she would come here.

"Sister Meng! Tell Tan Er to let me go!"

Zhou Nanyan said with a pout.

Meng Qianqian curled the corners of her lips: "Tan'er."

Tan Er reached out and handed the butterfly she caught to Zhou Nanyan: "Okay, this one is for Ni! Sister, do you want it?"

Meng Qianqian smiled and said, "I don't want it."

Tan'er tightened her net bag and continued to catch butterflies.

Yu looked in the direction where she saw three little maids catching butterflies in the garden.

This is the Shangshu Mansion, how could she allow her maid to play around like this in the master's house? Didn't the Meng family teach her the rules?

"lady."

The accompanying nanny asked, "Why don't you leave?"

Yu said calmly, "I feel a little dizzy after sitting in the carriage. I'll take a rest. You go find Yu Li first."

"Young Master Cousin has already come in?" The nanny was surprised.

It was agreed that the madam would take him into the Shangshu Mansion, but the madam hadn't entered yet and he went in by himself?

Yu glanced at Meng Qianqian in the pavilion and said, "He should be here. Go find him. Be careful not to offend the nobles in the mansion."

She also had no idea how Yu Li entered the Shangshu Mansion. Perhaps it was because the title of Anyuan Marquis Mansion was more useful than she imagined.

The nanny went to find Yu Li. Yu hesitated for a moment, went up the stairs and entered the pavilion.

There was only a stone table and four stone benches in the pavilion. On the table were several exquisite and delicious snacks. The teapot was filled with top-quality Longjing tea, which she had only ever given away.

Meng Qianqian didn't look at her and continued to enjoy the three people playing.

Yu sat down opposite Meng Qianqian, just blocking her line of sight.

Meng Qianqian frowned.

Yu didn't beat around the bush and came straight to the point: "You and Yu Li came together?"

Meng Qianqian: “Yeah.”

She had guessed right that it was Yu Li who brought her here. Her reaction also made Yu certain that she already knew her identity.

Yu said, "If you want to see me, you can make an appointment somewhere else. You shouldn't come here."

Meng Qianqian didn't say anything.

This was different from what Yu had imagined. She thought that when she saw him, she would cry and make a fuss, and would ask him questions sharply.

Yu thought about it and felt that she was probably sulking, so she said, "I remarried after your father passed away. I have done nothing wrong to your father."

Meng Qianqian still didn't say anything.

Yu continued, "I don't know what the Meng family said to you, but I don't think it was good. You blame me, but I don't blame you. If you have trouble in the capital in the future, you can come to me, but don't let the Marquis' Mansion know about our relationship. This will be good for both you and me."

Meng Qianqian said: "No need."

Yu thought she had heard wrongly: "What did you say?"

Meng Qianqian looked at her: "I said, there is no need."

Yu frowned.

Meng Qianqian smiled coldly: "You are afraid that I will make a big fuss in the Shangshu Mansion and embarrass you, so you said these words to calm me down, right? You think too much. I have never thought of recognizing you, and I will not stick to you like a dog-skin plaster. You can rest assured that I will not go to Anyuan Marquis Mansion to look for you, Madam Anyuan Marquis."

After saying that, Meng Qianqian stopped drinking tea and eating snacks, and got up and walked out.

When Meng Qianqian passed by him, an indescribable excitement suddenly surged into Yu's heart.

Yu stood up, looked at her from behind and said, "Who are you acting like this for? You are the child of the Meng family. Even if I want to take you away, I need the consent of the Meng family. Do you think they will give you to me? Will they allow me to marry you into another family and give you another family's surname?"

Meng Qianqian paused: "Then, have you asked the Meng family for me?"

Yu was startled, her eyelashes trembling, and she said, "Isn't this obvious? Who would agree to it..."

Meng Qianqian left without any hesitation.

At this time, Yu's personal nanny stepped onto the steps and said, "Madam, my cousin is playing pot-tossing with some young masters. What's wrong with you, Madam?"

Yu turned around and wiped the tears from her face, and said calmly, "There's sand in your eyes, it's okay, take me to see a doctor."

Zhou Nanyan, Tan'er and Banxia were sweating after playing together.

Tan'er is full of energy, but Banxia is miserable. Accompanying this Miss Zhou is much more tiring than accompanying her own lady. It is a physical job!

"Sister Meng!"

When Zhou Nanyan saw Meng Qianqian coming over, she quickly took Meng Qianqian's arm and said, "I don't want to catch butterflies anymore, Sister Meng, let's go fishing! There's a big fish pond over there with lots of fish!"

The Zhou family and the Xing family are old friends. Mrs. Xing has no daughter, and she loves Zhou Nanyan so much that the servants in the mansion don't call her Miss Zhou, but directly call her Miss.

When Zhou Nanyan came to the Xing family, it was like returning to her own home.

Meng Qianqian smiled: "Okay."

Zhou Nanyan took Meng Qianqian's arm and walked towards the fish pond: "Sister Meng, do you know the wife of Marquis Anyuan?"

She saw the two of them talking in the pavilion just now.

Meng Qianqian did not answer directly, but asked: "Do you know him?"

Zhou Nanyan said, "She and An Yuanhou came to my house a while ago. I took a look from afar. Her son just passed the imperial examination and is now quite popular in the capital."

Meng Qianqian said fairly and impartially: "The third place winner is indeed capable."

"My parents also said so. The Anyuan Marquisate was once glorious. After Anyuan Marquis was exiled for five years, the world had changed when he returned to the capital. Fortunately, he was able to use his son and bring some respect to the Anyuan Marquisate."

Zhou Nanyan looked around and whispered, "I also heard that the current Anyuan Marquis's wife is the Marquis's second wife, but she is a very good stepmother. She treats the two children of the original wife as her own. Even a biological mother can't do that. Everyone praises her very much."

Meng Qianqian said calmly: "Is that so."

Thinking of something, Zhou Nanyan said, "Ah, Sister Meng, I remember you are from Youzhou, and she seems to be from Youzhou as well. You two don't really know each other, do you?"

Meng Qianqian said: "We are from the same hometown. We just chatted for a few minutes. We are not familiar with each other."

On the grassland, Yu Li had a great time with several young masters.

Yu Li was very nervous at first.

He had also dealt with sons of officials in Youzhou, but the impression he had was not very good. There was a sense of superiority in their words and deeds as if they were from official families. Trying to make friends with them would only be seen by them as a form of flattery.

Maybe not everyone is like this, but unfortunately, the few he met were all like this.

I thought the housekeepers in the capital would be more difficult to get along with, but I didn't expect that they were all generous, easy-going and humble, and did not put on airs at all.

He felt the heritage and cultivation of aristocratic families in them.

On the contrary, there was indeed a rebellious person who was always unfriendly to him, and his name seemed to be... Han Lin.

"Come with me."

Zhou Ye dragged Han Lin to the side.

"What are you doing?"

Han Lin broke free from his arms.

Zhou Ye pointed at Yu Li and asked, "Do you know who his cousin is?"

Han Lin sneered, "Who is it?"

Zhou Ye said: "Meng Xiaojiu."

Han Lin: “……!!”

Yu Li was wondering if he had done something wrong when Han Lin came over.

Han Lin cupped his hands towards Yu Li and bowed solemnly: "Brother Yu, please accept me as your younger brother!"

Yu Li: “…”
