Quickly wear the wife counterattack system
Chapter 226: The Prime Minister is a henpecked husband (9)
Send the person to Zhuangzi.
"Mr. Meng, you should have a good rest." After giving these instructions, Lord Yun took his daughter away.
After all, it’s getting late and we should go back early.
"Be careful on the road."
Meng Sichen stood at the door and watched the two figures disappear from his sight before he reluctantly went back to rest.
Looking back at Zhuangzi, he knew that he could not stay here any longer.
The next day, he went to see Brother Hu.
"How dare you come!" Hu Ke said jokingly, welcoming the person in. "At the poetry meeting, you fought one against a hundred people and won all the flowers in our hands. How dare you come?"
Although she said this, Hu Ke pulled his hand and walked inside, "If you had told me you were coming earlier, I would have asked someone to prepare your favorite snacks."
"I am sorry for being so abrupt." Meng Sichen bowed and apologized, then sat down opposite Brother Hu. "I came here suddenly because I have something to ask of you."
"You said."
"I got engaged to Miss Yun yesterday."
Hu Ke, who was about to sit down, almost fell on his butt when he heard this.
"what?!"
Meng Sichen was ashamed, "I should have mentioned this earlier than Brother Hu." He roughly recounted what had happened in the past few days, "This is what happened. I didn't mean to hide it from you. It's just that these things happened too suddenly."
"It's really sudden."
Hu Ke was terrified after hearing this, "How come you are engaged to that lady? It's just a favor, and several of us have helped write the article, why do you still want to marry her?"
"I fell in love with Miss Yun at first sight that day." Speaking of this, Meng Sichen also had a shy look on his face, "I was just having a crush on her, but I never thought Miss Yun was interested in me too."
"I see." Hu Ke nodded, "But I don't have any gifts for you to get married, which is not good. I have to give you a backup gift."
Meng Sichen: "No need for a generous gift." Just as he was about to say something, Brother Hu raised his hand to stop him.
"The Hu family has a waterside pavilion on the outskirts of the city. The pavilion is built by the water. Although it is not big, the scenery is nice. It was given to me by my grandpa's family. It is a bit far from the city. At that time, my grandpa said it was a good place to study, but I disliked it because it was too far and didn't like to go there."
The pavilion was given to Hu Ke by his grandfather when he passed the imperial examination. It was just the right thing to do as a favor. "You are getting married, how about giving you this pavilion as a wedding gift?"
"No!"
This time Meng Sichen came to borrow a residence, but not to ask for it.
"That water pavilion was given to you by your grandfather, how can you just give it to me casually?" Meng Sichen didn't dare to accept it lightly, "You can borrow it, but if it's a gift, I feel guilty accepting it."
"We have known each other for ten years. Why are you still fussing over this?" Hu Ke comforted Brother Meng. "Brother Meng, you have helped me with my studies over the years. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to enter Master Cao's private school. I can never repay your kindness to me."
In fact, what Hu Ke said was really hypocritical.
It is true that the two have known each other for ten years, but if things were really as good as they said, Meng Sichen would not have left after offending the Yun family.
He could have lent out the pavilion at any time, but he didn't.
He did this now simply to make Meng Sichen remember his kindness.
At the poetry gathering yesterday, Meng Sichen did not hide his incompetence. He won the first place by beating everyone else. Hu Ke finally believed what Master Cao said when he said Meng Sichen would definitely win first place.
Nowadays, giving gifts is a sign of a close relationship between two people.
If you wait until after the autumn examination to give gifts, it would be an attempt to curry favor with the rich and powerful and have ill intentions.
Hu Ke’s family is in business, and she knows best how to maximize the profits of a deal.
"I still say the same thing, you can stay temporarily, but if it's offered to me, I will definitely not accept it." Meng Sichen is not a fool. If he accepts it, he will owe him a big favor.
"Brother Hu, you know my temper. I will definitely not accept it if you give it to me."
The two of them pushed each other and the stalemate continued.
"Okay." Hu Ke didn't insist any more. "In that case, I'll have someone clean up the waterside pavilion and you can stay there temporarily. Is that okay?"
"Okay." Meng Sichen breathed a sigh of relief, "Then I'll move over as soon as possible."
"I'll send someone to pack it up today, and the day after tomorrow." Hu Ke counted on his fingers, "The day after tomorrow, come over and I'll bring someone to help you move. You have so many books, it's impossible for one person to move them all."
Meng Sichen: "Thank you very much, Brother Hu."
Hu Ke: "Why should we be so polite? I will give you and your sister-in-law a big gift when the time comes. You must accept it."
"nature."
After having lunch and leaving Hu's house, Meng Sichen rode back on horseback. He had to pack up the things in the farm.
"Mr. Meng." Rong Qiu stepped forward to help lead the horse, "You are back. Miss Yun came over. I said you were out, and she put down her things and left."
"What is she doing here again?" Meng Sichen got off the horse. "Next time she comes, just tell her I'm not here."
Rong Qiu: "Yes. But Miss Yun is here too. I said you went to see your friends."
"She's here?" Meng Sichen raised the corner of his mouth, then pursed it when he thought about missing the chance to meet again, "I forgot to ask you to give her the painting."
"Mr. Meng, which one did you choose? Let us take a look. If you are not here next time Miss Yun comes, I will get it for her." Rong Qiu said.
"Ah."
Rong Qiu and Liu Han were both assigned to Mr. Meng by the Yun Mansion.
When they get married in the future, their indentures will also be included in the marriage.
Therefore, both of them treated Mr. Meng as their master and served him.
Meng Sichen was also satisfied with the two servants. Rong Qiu was quiet but smart, and Liu Han was impatient but not unreasonable, and he was also tall.
I'm sure the Yun Mansion has an explanation for this.
"Alas." Meng Sichen came back and looked at the pears on the table. Because of the hot weather, the skin had begun to wrinkle, but he still couldn't bear to eat it.
Next to the pear was a black horsewhip, which was also a gift from Susu.
Meng Sichen picked up the pear, which was almost ripened by his rubbing. "I always feel that this matter will not end so easily." He still doubted what Miss Yun said.
For a moment, I didn’t know what to do.
Because of the Yun family's reputation, he couldn't say anything harsh. But the other party came over again and again, and he couldn't just ignore him.
When we move to the waterside the day after tomorrow, maybe we can be farther away.
"I pray to God that I can marry Su Su smoothly."
"Second sister."
Yun Su, carrying the pears she had just picked from outside, poked her head in through the door and saw her second sister doing the accounts, and heard the sound of fiddling with the abacus.
"You're here." Yun Shu put down the pen in her hand, stopped fiddling with the abacus, and waved to the little sister outside the door, "Come in quickly, what are you doing standing outside?"
"I don't know if I should come in and disturb you." Yun Su brought the bamboo basket hidden on her back to the front, "I picked it specially for my second sister, and also gave some to my eldest sister."
This pear is Yunshu’s favorite, so she picked it specially from that tree.
