After rebirth, I became a treacherous minister Black Moonlight

Chapter 129 The whole capital city loves Meng Xiao9

Yu Li was completely confused after having gained a younger brother for no apparent reason.

He thought Han Lin was making fun of him, but Han Lin proved his sincerity with his subsequent actions.

They changed from throwing pots to playing Cuju. Han Lin, the opponent, actually fed the ball to himself frequently, and was beaten up by his teammates.

What Yu Li didn't know was that these young masters were not so caring towards everyone. It was true that they had good conduct, but it was also true that they could be a little xenophobic sometimes.

But who makes him Xiao Yinhu’s cousin?

Little Tiger, specializes in treating disobedience.

Yu watched from afar for a long time, and was delighted but also a little shocked to see Yu Li mingling with that group of young masters.

Yu Li is a taciturn person, introverted and shy. He will blush if he talks to others for a few more words. I brought him here today, firstly to let him broaden his horizons, and secondly to make him familiar in front of the wife of the chief priest.

"Madam, do you want to call the cousin?"

Mammy asked.

Yu shook her head: "No, let him play for a while longer."

The identities of these young masters are not simple, and the young master of the Lin family is also here.

Yu thought of Meng Qianqian again.

Even Yu Li knew that she had to make connections, but she finally got the chance to enter the Shangshu Mansion, but she could only catch butterflies in the garden with a few maids.

I heard that the Meng family found a good marriage for her in the capital, and her husband's family is an official.

There are too many officials in the capital. A ninth-rank official is an official, and a first-rank general is also an official. There is a world of difference between them.

It was impossible for her to marry into the Grand Commander's family. Those who were interested in the Meng family were probably not powerful families. Perhaps someone in their family just held an idle position in the government.

If she had been sweeter and softer in her attitude, she might have been able to ask the Marquis to find a job for her husband.

While thinking, she came to the banquet held in the big garden.

What surprised her was that except for Mrs. Xing, the hostess who was still entertaining guests at the table, many of the other ladies and daughters had left.

Yu greeted Madam Xing and asked in confusion, "Am I late?"

Mrs. Xing smiled and said, "No, they went to look for Miss Meng."

When they heard that Meng Xiaojiu was also at home, they ran faster than rabbits, fearing that they would miss him if they were late.

"Miss Meng? Could it be..." Yu was shocked.

Madam Xing smiled politely and said, "I forgot that Madam Hou just returned to the capital, so I'm afraid you haven't heard of Yinhu Guard Meng Xiaojiu."

Yu had indeed never heard of it. She didn't care about military affairs, and didn't understand the Black Armor Guards and the Twelve Guards. Even if Madam Xing told her at this time, she would not be clear about the status of the Yinhu Guards in the Great Zhou.

Just judging from the attitudes of the ladies, I guess he is a powerful person.

It turns out they just have the same surname. She said, how could it be that girl?

Mrs. Xing politely invited: "Madam Hou, have some tea."

Yu was not even familiar with Madam Xing, and had nothing to do with Meng Xiaojiu. It would be too abrupt to propose to meet her.

She picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said with a smile, "It's really good tea."

The stage was set up and the troupe sang play after play. Yu estimated that it must have lasted for about an hour before the ladies and daughters returned to their seats with smiles on their faces.

Yu Shi couldn't understand. Was the status of a Tiger Guard really so valuable? Even the wife of the Imperial College's chief priest, the wife of the Imperial Censor, and the Princess of Yongning took the initiative to make friends with him.

Mrs. Xing didn't mind at all that the limelight was stolen. Instead, she looked proud of it.

Madam Lin sat down next to Madam Xing, smiling brightly: "We agreed to come to my house next time."

Mrs. Zhou put her hands on her hips and glared at her: You’re so angry because you didn’t win!

The south wing of the back house.

Zhou Nanyan poked her head out from the curtain and asked in a low voice, "Sister Meng, are they all gone?"

Meng Qianqian said: "Let's go, come out."

Zhou Nanyan was sweating all over. "Oh, I'm so scared. It's okay if Aunt Xing, Aunt Wang, and Aunt Lin know about this. It will be bad if others find out. Sister Meng, let's go fishing!"

Meng Qianqian smiled: "Okay."

Zhou Nanyan wanted to avoid outsiders, so Meng Qianqian stayed with her and didn't return to the table. During the meal, Zhou Ye asked the servant to deliver two messages, saying that Yu Li was well taken care of and asked Meng Qianqian not to worry.

Yu didn't see Meng Qianqian until she left the table, and thought she couldn't stay and left early.

Yu found Yu Li and asked him to pack up his things and move to the Marquis' Mansion tomorrow.

"I have already made an agreement with the Marquis. You will live in the Marquis' Mansion from now on."

"No thanks, auntie."

Yu heard this sentence twice today and frowned: "You have only been with her for a few days, why do you speak the same way as her? After entering the Marquis' Mansion, you will be the Marquis's cousin. In the future in the capital, others will look up to you."

Yu Li said: "Thank you for your kindness, Auntie. I still want to live with my cousin."

Yu was stunned for a moment, frowned and said: "You treat your cousin..."

Yu Li hurriedly said, "Aunt, don't misunderstand me! I only treat my cousin as my sister, and my cousin only treats me as her brother!"

He refrained from telling anyone about Meng Qianqian's upcoming wedding.

He did not have a good feeling about the Marquis' Mansion. When he went there, the servants looked at him as if he were a poor relative who came to beg for money.

People from my cousin's family would not look at him strangely.

Yu sighed, "I know you don't like the servants in the Marquis' Mansion. I will discipline them if they do something wrong. It took me a lot of effort to convince the old lady to let you move in."

Yu Li said: "If that's the case, then your nephew should not cause any trouble to your aunt."

Yu's face looked a little ugly.

I was praising him in my heart just now, but now I am being immature.

The cousin of the Marquis's Mansion, how many people can't ask for such an identity?

It doesn't matter if he doesn't care.

Zhou Nanyan rarely came out, and she played with Meng Qianqian until the evening. Yu Li also stayed in the Shangshu Mansion and exchanged poems and essays with the two young masters of the Xing family, Zhou Ye and others, benefiting a lot from them.

On the way back in the carriage, Meng Qianqian asked Yu Li: "Did cousin make any friends today?"

Yu Li's face was still full of excitement. He scratched his head and said, "I don't know if I can be considered their friend. Master Han asked me to visit his home tomorrow. Master Zhou and several other masters will also go."

Meng Qianqian smiled and said, "Cousin, do you want to go?"

Yu Li asked, "Can I go?"

Meng Qianqian smiled and said, "Of course, does my cousin like them?"

Yu Li nodded: "Yes!"

Meng Qianqian smiled and said, "Then, cousin, do you want to study with them?"

Yu Li was silent.

He had asked, and they were all studying in the Imperial College. If he rejected his aunt today, he was afraid that the Marquis's Mansion would think that he was ungrateful, and he didn't know if he could still enter the Imperial College.

After Yu returned to the Marquis's Mansion, she immediately went to Marquis Anyuan's study.

She asked softly, "Husband, is there any progress on Li'er's admission to the Imperial College?"

An Yuanhou said, "I was just about to tell you that Li'er is late. The entrance exam to the Imperial College ended last month. If you want to get in, you can only wait until next year."

Yu's face changed: "Can't we take the test again?"

Anyuan Hou frowned and sighed, "Do you want Lin Jijiu to give him a private exam? Anyuan Hou Mansion doesn't have such a big face."
