[Red Mansion] A little chef came to the Grand View Garden

"Where are you going?"

Liu Mei was full of suspicion, seeing the man dressed up and ready to go out.

Shiqing stretched out his hand, rubbed Liu Mei's head, and replied calmly: "Shouldn't you ask, where are 'we' going?"

Liu Mei's brows relaxed, her cheeks were slightly warm——Although Shi Qing was still the same as before, his words seemed to be smeared with honey.

"I always thought you just recovered, and there must be some things to deal with." Liu Mei thought, how should the matter of Xie Xiaochuan be settled, and how Prince Zhongshun's mansion will negotiate with Prince Jing's mansion... These things, could it be that Shiqing Just ignore it?

Shiqing seemed to see through her thoughts at a glance, sighed, and said, "At this time, is it important to pay attention to those mundane things, or is it more important to be with you?"

When Liu Mei heard Shiqing say "at such a time", she couldn't help lowering her head——

She also knew that there was not much time left for the reunion, but after hearing Shiqing mention it like this, she still felt uncomfortable in the end.

"It's been so long since you've been here, and you've never been out of Beijing, and the farthest you've got is Red Sandalwood Fort. Don't you want to stay with me for a while and take a look around? We can go to Jinling, Yangzhou , Gusu area, if you still want to go further, I will accompany you."

"Can it go further?" Liu Mei asked in surprise.

When she was in Red Sandalwood Castle, she already felt that the world had come to an end.She didn't expect that they could go that far?

"Naturally!" Shiqing laughed lightly, "Otherwise, do you think that the three girls from Jia's family marry far away and marry into a neighboring village?"

Liu Mei stared: "Don't laugh at me!"

Shiqing stretched out his hand and rubbed the hair on her head again, turned his face and said, "All the places mentioned in the book really exist in this world. But if you don't go, it's nothing to you. It's all nothingness."

Liu Mei stared, and thought it made sense.Recalling Jinling, Yangzhou and other places, according to the book, they are all such romantic and prosperous places, I can't help but feel excited, and I am willing to go with Shiqing to see it.

"But I...I still have some things to deal with." Liu Mei looked at Shiqing's simple luggage, and she still hesitated in her heart—is she going out of Beijing with Shiqing like this?

"Of course!" Shiqing looked down at Liu Mei, "I will accompany you in whatever you want to do."

Not long after, the carriage bearing the badge of Prince Zhongshun drove to the outer city and stopped outside the gate of a small courtyard.

Liu Mei jumped down from the car, beating a small drum in her heart, and occasionally turned her head to look at the man who was following behind her step by step, and she didn't know what to say when the words came to her lips.

At the beginning, she lied casually, saying that she was borrowed to work in Prince Zhongshun's mansion for two days, but now the prince himself is following her, and together with her parents who came to see her at home—this... what is this called? ?

But if she didn't see her, she didn't leave a word and just left like this, but Liu Mei couldn't bear it in her heart.God knows if she will have the chance to meet this simple and lovely couple.

When they first came here, they didn't have much affection, but after going through all these ups and downs, now Liu Mei already treats these two as her biological parents.She always has to explain to her parents about her relationship with Shiqing.

But what kind of shock Shiqing's identity would bring to Liu's father and Liu's mother, and how much the pair of parents could bear, Liu Mei couldn't figure it out.

She turned her head and took a peek at Shiqing, only to see that the man was always calm and composed.

"Liu Mei, would you like me to explain to your parents first?"

When he came to the gate of Liu's small courtyard, Shiqing took a step first, and turned to ask Liu Mei.

Of course Liu Mei is fine, anyway, she doesn't know how to speak to her parents.

So Shiqing went up to call the door, and reported that the family name was Shi, and he was the guard of Prince Zhongshun's residence.

Only then did Liu Mei notice the regular clothes Shiqing was wearing today.Although this ochre-colored uniform robe was also made of superior materials, there was no dark pattern printed on it, and there was even an extra circle of fabric on the cuffs, but it was made of cotton.It is nothing at first glance, but upon careful observation, one can get a sense of it—this is probably a young man from an ordinary family, who wears his best clothes solemnly, and cherishes them very much, fearing that such good clothes will be worn out. Clothing.

Except for the robe on his body, Shiqing didn't even wear a crown, and only tied his hair with a bamboo hairpin.It's just that Shiqing's appearance is there, even with such a flashy outfit, it's hard to hide his extraordinary demeanor.Also because of this reason, most of the time Shiqing only lowered his gaze, looked at his feet, and occasionally glanced at Liu Mei.

Liu's father and Liu's mother looked surprised, and welcomed the "stone" guard and Liu Mei into the house.

Shiqing explained to Father Liu and Mother Liu why he came here.Liu Mei's heart was in a mess, and she went to the kitchen to boil water and cook tea to entertain the guests. He only heard a general idea outside, and heard that Shiqing was vaguely mentioning to Liu's father and Liu mother that Prince Zhongshun left Beijing for business after he recovered, so ordered Liu Mei accompanied him.But because Liu Mei was not a slave in the mansion, he came here to accompany her, to say hello to Liu's father and Liu mother, and to ask Liu's father and Liu mother to nod.

Father Liu and Mother Liu never thought of such a situation. After looking at each other, Father Liu tremblingly asked how long it would take if Liu Mei accompanied him.

Shiqing can only say that it may be a few months at least, and years at most.

When Father Liu and Mother Liu heard this, they immediately felt reluctance to give up, rubbed their hands but refused to nod, but they were also afraid of the power of the Prince's Mansion, so they couldn't say the word "refusal" directly.

Unexpectedly, Shiqing looked outside, and immediately an official media came to the door, and some entourage brought in a few picks of betrothal money covered with red silk cloth, and piled them up in the small courtyard of Liu's house glaringly.

The official media immediately talked about the "Stone" guards of the palace with hype and foam.

Liu Mei hid under the kitchen and watched secretly, seeing that the official matchmaker and the porter were all disguised by those long historians, she knew that they were just following orders, and she couldn't help laughing secretly.

Shiqing patiently waited for the "official matchmaker" to finish talking, and then solemnly bowed to Liu's father and Liu mother, and asked for help. He only said that he had admired Liu Mei for a long time, and everyone in the Prince's Mansion was leaving soon. If the Liu family could accept For this marriage, he and Liu Mei are multiple unmarried couples, and they can take care of them on the way, so they took the liberty to come to the door at this time, hoping that Liu and his wife would nod their heads.

Liu's father and Liu's mother exchanged glances, and both faces immediately turned down—after making such a big circle, they came to pay homage to the good cabbage that their family has raised for so many years.

So Liu's father put on a straight face and began to question Shiqing.

Mother Liu flashed to the kitchen and saw Liu Mei who was in a daze under the kitchen.

Mother Liu knew it well, so she knew that her daughter was very willing.But she was puzzled in her heart, lowered her voice, pulled Liu Mei and asked: "Mei'er, who is that one outside? Why does mother look at it, and looks exactly the same as the prince who came to the mansion to enjoy the snow back then? Oh, yes Yes, only the clothes and outfits are different..."

"If it's really a guard of the palace or something, mother will recognize it, and it's not an insult to you... But if it's the prince's palace..." Mother Liu stuttered as she spoke, and she didn't dare to think about it anymore—— If you want to scare people to death, it is not as simple as climbing high branches. Even Jia's mansion looks glamorous, but its foundation is so unbearable. If it is changed to the prince's mansion, I don't know what will happen.

"Mother, you're overthinking." Liu Mei turned around and comforted her mother, "There's actually no difference between me and him in terms of identities. Isn't our family already divorced? Speaking of which, I'm better than him." Son."

Probably because there is still a system of world affairs in the middle, from the beginning to the end, Liu Mei never felt that Shi Qing was a bit higher than her because of her status as a prince.The two are always equal emotionally, and sometimes when they get along, Liu Mei is stronger and more determined than Shi Qing.

It's just that in front of the secular world, both of them had to carefully put a layer of camouflage on this relationship, so as not to really frighten Liu's father and Liu's mother.

Liu Mei comforted Mother Liu, and Mother Liu naturally understood her daughter's heart.It's just that the mother thought and thought, finally gritted her teeth, turned around, and bit Father Liu's ear for a while.

Father Liu thought for a while, and finally made up his mind, and now he only had a few false words with the official media, and asked them to escape outside the door for a while, while he left Shiqing alone, and chatted for a few words.

Just as he was talking, Liu's father raised his breath suddenly, and asked Shiqing loudly: "You are definitely not a guard of Prince Zhongshun's residence, what exactly is your identity?"

This question was so sudden that Shi Qing was caught off guard.Liu Mei avoided the side, and saw Shiqing's face from a distance turning red just right little by little.

"Don't get angry, don't get angry!"

Liu Mei is familiar with Shiqing's temperament, and knows that whether it is the real deity or the later system avatar, no one has dared to yell at Shiqing like this in person.Liu Mei has nothing to do at this moment, she can only call out to the Jade Emperor, the Supreme Lord, and Amitabha Guanyin Bodhisattva in her heart, to bless Shiqing and never act according to her own nature.

Unexpectedly, Shiqing blushed and said word by word: "I'm so sorry! I'm really not the guard of the Prince's Mansion."

Liu Mei: Huh?Is this the question?

I saw Shiqing's brows tightened again and again, and he continued slowly: "I'm actually... actually..."

"The... groom of the Prince's Mansion!"

groom? !

This gap... I'm afraid it's a bit big.

Liu Mei fell down.

Father Liu and Mother Liu looked at each other, but they didn't expect such a result.

"It's really a groom?" Father Liu added majestically.

Shi Qing nodded solemnly, "Really!"

At this time Liu Mei rushed out and added, "Didn't His Royal Highness promise you to promote you to be a bodyguard on the day you leave Beijing?" She looked extremely nervous, as if she was afraid that her parents would be because of Shi Qing's "groom" I despise him because of his position——

"But it's not good to deceive future parents-in-law like this!"

Shiqing always kept his face straight when he spoke, and he was always expressionless.But in the eyes of Liu's father and Liu's mother, he became an honest and good young man.In contrast, Liu Mei has become an extroverted girl, a silly girl who wants her lover to impress her parents.

"It's nothing to be a groom..." Father Liu sighed, "Our family doesn't need you to throw out any betrothal gifts, these are all for you to save for your future life."

Liu Mei was overjoyed immediately.

"But, is it really a groom?" Father Liu added, still worried.

But don't even be a groom! ——The anxious father-in-law-to-be whispered in his heart.

After a long time, the Lius and his wife chatted occasionally, and they still agreed that their son-in-law Shi Qingjue had nothing to do with that Prince Zhongshun who never knew who he was.

"No prince is willing to lower himself to be a groom!" Mother Liu sighed.

Father Liu thought for a while, and said: "Ten thousand steps back, even if he is really a high-ranking prince, but he is willing to do this for us Meier, Meier's encounter may not be a good match."

Besides, Shiqing changed his identity, personally accompanied Liu Mei to go home, met Liu's father and Liu mother, reported the matter of the long trip to Beijing, and promised to take good care of Liu Mei as his fiancé, and the two bid farewell to Liu's father and Liu Mother, retreated from the small courtyard of the Liu family.

Liu Mei was about to get into the car when she suddenly heard someone calling her name on the corner of the street: "Mei'er!"

Liu Mei looked around in a daze, only to see a woman with a woman's hair style standing far away at the corner of the street greeting her.The woman's figure was slim and slim, and her figure looked familiar, but she couldn't see her face clearly.Liu Mei felt that this person looked a bit like Liu Wu'er, but his voice was not.

She turned to look at Shiqing.

Shiqing nodded slightly imperceptibly, and said in a low voice: "Go and have a look! You already have some things to settle, since you've come here, you might as well just settle here."

Liu Mei nodded slightly, turned around alone, and went to talk to the woman.But Shiqing was always a dozen steps away from Liu Mei, watching her from afar and protecting her.

Liu Mei walked up to the woman, took a closer look, and realized that the person in front of her was not someone else, but Yinger, the maid who had been beside Baochai back then.Now looking at her hair style and dress, Liu Mei knows that this Yinger must have passed the Ming Road and become Baoyu's roommate.

"Sister Ying'er, what do you need from me?"

Ying'er pursed her lips and smiled lightly, "It's not me, it's our grandma who wants to see you. Mei'er, can I bother you to come with me to the front 'Let's Stay' to meet old friends, okay?"

Liu Mei raised a pair of beautiful Liu Yemei immediately - at this moment, it was Baochai who wanted to see her?
