talk about wine

Watching the two people leave without looking back, Zhou Ping thought about Meng Chuxi's words, and couldn't calm down for a long time. The original anger was extinguished, and all that was left was a mess of ashes after the fire.

Zhou Qingwu looked at Meng Chuxi and dismissed Zhou Ping with a few words. Zhou Ping's expression at that time made her feel happy, and there was a faint smile in her eyes when she looked at Meng Chuxi.

However, recalling Meng Chuxi's words just now, she gestured to her: Zhou Ping talked to you before?

Meng Chuxi turned her head and leaned back slightly to look at Zhou Qingwu. The meaning in her eyes was quite intriguing. Zhou Qingwu understood Meng Chuxi's meaning from this look, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she moved her eyes away to conceal, and gestured Explanation: I'm just curious.

Meng Chuxi lowered her head, put her hand on the tip of her nose to hide her smile, then raised her eyes and said with a smile, "Are you curious? Why do I think you're a little sore now?"

Zhou Qingwu's ears were red, but he pursed his lips and shook his head quickly, as if he had been beaten to death.

Meng Chuxi raised her eyebrows and nodded: "Oh, it's not sour, it's okay, it's okay if you don't say it."

No matter what happened now, Zhou Qingwu also knew that Meng Chuxi was teasing her, so he stretched out his hand and punched Meng Chuxi, with anger and anger.

Meng Chuxi stopped teasing her, cleared her throat and said, "Okay, let me tell you the truth, I didn't have much contact with him. When I went to pick mulberry leaves that morning, he suddenly greeted me and said a total of less than three sentences. He needs me." Can you retell it to Qingwu?"

Zhou Qingwu's face turned red, and he stopped gesticulating, and stretched out his hand to scratch her waist.Meng Chuxi laughed and begged for mercy, and the two started arguing on the path.

Originally, the two of them came out to pick mulberry leaves, and the silkworms were about to go to sleep. If they wanted to spin more silk without getting sick, they must not treat them badly in terms of food.

Just when they were playing around, suddenly a familiar voice came from behind them, "Qingwu."

The two of them stopped immediately, and after laughing away, they turned into two mature and quiet girls in the eyes of others.

After Meng Chuxi narrowed his eyes and glanced at Zhou Qingwu, he turned all his eyes on the visitor.

"Ms. Meng." Wan Qingyan was no longer as gentle as before when facing Meng Chuxi, and her indifferent expression also lost the previous intimacy in her voice.She didn't have Meng Chuxi's name, and Zhou Qingwu immediately realized that something was wrong, including her change of mood.I feel a little uneasy, just because I didn't agree to her to persuade myself to go back to Beijing with her, does Sister Wan have any objections to Chuxi?

"I just arrived at your house and found that you were not there. I heard from the neighbor that I had gone to the field, so I came to take a look." Seeing that both of them were carrying baskets, she wondered, "What are you doing here?"

Zhou Qingwu looked at Meng Chuxi. Meng Chuxi didn't care about her coldness. To be honest, she was very grateful to Wan Qingyan, and she was even more happy that Zhou Qingwu had such a sister who thought about her, so she said as she said, "Go pick mulberry leaves."

"Plucking mulberry leaves? Are you raising silkworms yourself?" The Wan family is mainly engaged in tea and porcelain business, so they are not very good at planting mulberry and raising silkworms, but because they have considered this aspect of making a living before, they know that this is not good. Sericulture, especially in Jiangning Mansion, has never been popular because the cultivation and breeding technology is not up to standard, and a little carelessness will result in nothing.

"You know how to raise silkworms? It's not a good job, it's hard work and risky, why would you think of raising silkworms?" Although she was asking Zhou Qingwu, she glanced at Meng Chuxi from the corner of her eye. Obviously she guessed that it was Meng Chuxi's idea .

Zhou Qingwu didn't want Wan Qingyan to be prejudiced against Meng Chuxi, so he quickly pulled Meng Chuxi's sleeve.

Naturally, Meng Chuxi would not hide her clumsiness in front of Wan Qingyan. Now that she saw what she was thinking, the only way to prevent her from obstructing her was to reassure her.

"I mentioned it. The two acres of land I bought before happened to have eight mulberry trees. I vaguely remembered some methods of planting mulberry and raising silkworms, so I tried it. Now the two foil silkworms at home are growing well, and they will grow soon. sleep cocooned."

Zhou Qingwu nodded repeatedly and gave Meng Chuxi a thumbs up, showing that she is very powerful.

Wan Qingyan could clearly see her maintenance in every move, and the depression in her heart became more and more intense, why is this silly girl so confused.When facing her, they kept firmly in mind the boundaries between each other and refused to rely on her, but they put their minds on a woman with unknown origins and a difficult future.

In Wan Qingyan's heart, Meng Chuxi is old, smart, and smart, and must have a decent background, while Zhou Qingwu has been staying in the Zhou family village with a simple mind, and has suffered drastic changes, so he is easily seduced by others.She almost believed that Meng Chuxi had seduced her little sister, but she didn't want to embarrass Zhou Qingwu, so she could only bear it.

So she raised a smile: "Really? That's because I underestimated Miss Meng." After that, she glanced at Zhou Qingwu: "But I'm here today to find Miss Meng. I need her to explain some questions to me. , so Qingwu, you have to lend her to Sister Wan for a while."

The last time Wan Qingyan broke up with Meng Chuxi, it was obviously because of a quarrel, so why did she have to talk to Meng Chuxi alone this time, and if she had any questions, she needed Meng Chuxi to explain to her.

Zhou Qingwu didn't want them to quarrel, so he quickly pointed to himself and compared his listening state.Wan Qingyan understood what she meant, and comforted her: "Don't worry, I won't bully her, Qingwu can't even trust Sister Wan now?"

Zhou Qingwu waved his hands quickly, a little at a loss.Meng Chuxi nodded, and said in a gentle voice: "It's okay, I also want to thank you, Sister Wan, you go to pick mulberry leaves first, and I will pick you up later. And you are not allowed to climb the tree if I am not here, just pick it below, you know?" ?”

There was a hint of intimacy in her gentle voice, and the lines were full of pampering and love. With Wan Qingyan around, Zhou Qingwu became more and more shy, and finally glanced at Wan Qingyan, then nodded, and gestured: No quarrel is allowed.

Seeing her stepping back and walking away, Wan Qingyan suppressed all the smiles on her face, and said in a sad and angry tone, "Don't you feel a little bit guilty about making her become so attached to you? Or do you think this appearance is funny."

Meng Chuxi smiled slightly: "She just told us not to quarrel."

Wan Qingyan was irritated by her calm and confident appearance, and said sharply: "Why are you pestering her? Did you treat her like this after she saved you? I thought what I said before would make you wake up, or at least be patient and restrain yourself. You got worse."

Before, she could feel that Zhou Qingwu was still restrained and patient when looking at Meng Chuxi, but now she didn't know that her mind was completely on Meng Chuxi, and there was a clear change in Meng Chuxi's words, which clearly happened.

Meng Chuxi was helpless: "I am really grateful for Miss Wan's love for Qingwu, and what you said before suddenly woke me up. What you said is indeed the biggest gap between us, so Qingwu and I confessed directly after thinking about it. In your opinion, that may be an unavoidable problem, but it is irrelevant to me. It is not convenient for me to disclose the specific situation, but I assure you that I will not leave Qingwu because of my status and family situation. It's not just for fun, let alone comforting each other, it's sincere."

"Sincerely? Meng Chuxi, are you so naive after losing your memory? Is the world so easy to fight against? If you insist on doing this, I will spread this matter, and you will no longer have a foothold in Jiangyin. When the time comes, you What confidence do you have to tell me that you are sincere?" Wan Qingyan was a little touched by Meng Chuxi's frankness, but her words were still extremely sharp.

Meng Chuxi's expression froze, and the brows were also a little condensed: "This is what you said for her own good. Can you avoid the harm to her by spreading this matter?"

"Heh, Jiangyin can't stay any longer, so I will naturally take her away to the capital. I will kill two birds with one stone, and no one will know about her past. In this way, you are the only one who will lose her reputation and have nowhere to stand. Meng Chuxi, think it over clearly." She His eyes were like the sharp edge of a knife, and he was full of pressure when he looked at Meng Chuxi.

Meng Chuxi didn't speak, her eyes were firmly locked on Wan Qingyan, as if she wanted to see her thoughts from her face,

Seeing her silence, Wan Qingyan continued: "Of course, if you are willing to let go, I will find your family for you. Even if I don't find you, I will give you enough money to make your life better than now. How to choose, You are a smart person, so you don’t need me to point it out for you.”

Meng Chuxi still looked at her without saying a word, then raised her feet and stepped forward, the smile disappeared from her eyes, as if shrouded in a haze.She usually gives people a gentle and elegant feeling, and she is so beautiful that she is not aggressive, but now the coldness has cooled down, and her aura has suddenly become fierce. This step by step without saying a word is full of deterrence.

Wan Qingyan's heart skipped a beat, she was a little scared, she couldn't stop backing away, and her voice was a little unsteady: "What do you want to do?"

Meng Chuxi curled her lips into a smile but there was no warmth: "It's nothing, don't you wonder why nothing happened to Qingwu and I, after all, many people are not so peaceful."

"What do you mean?" Wan Qingyan frowned.

"It's nothing, I just want to talk to Miss Wan. Back then we dug up a Polygonum multiflorum plant and sold it for a very good price for more than a hundred years, so we met a thief. That night he broke in with a knife and I found it It's gone." She was already very close at this moment, her voice was low and her tone was sinister, which made Wan Qingyan uncontrollably tense.

"He thought he could get it easily, and even used the knife in anger, but in the end, guess what happened to him." Meng Chuxi smiled, and continued: "I took his knife, twisted his wrist directly, and broke his wrist. His lumbar spine was damaged, and he could only lie in bed for the rest of his life, and he was only in his 30s."

"Since then, no one who doesn't have eyes dared to touch us." She finished speaking easily, and Wan Qingyan felt that this person was like a ghost, and cold sweat was about to break out on his forehead.She gritted her teeth and said, "Meng Chuxi, are you threatening me?"

Meng Chuxi looked at her innocently: "How could it be? I'm telling you that I can protect Qingwu, and I will do my best to protect her. If someone hurts her, they will meet me just now."

In the end, she put away the extraordinarily oppressive expression before, and saluted Wan Qingyan, her eyes were a little helpless but full of sincerity: "Miss Wan, you said that I am a smart person, but my feelings make me dizzy. In your eyes, I do have a way out, but trying this kind of relationship that seems absurd to you is not full of risks. I really like her, and I would not leave her even if I didn't have this intention in my original plan , let alone get married."

Wan Qingyan calmed down and was a little puzzled: "Why? It is said that your family background should be good. With your appearance and intelligence, it is not difficult to marry a good family."

"Miss Wan is also a smart person. Why do you think I was seriously injured and fell to Zhoujia Village for half a year? I don't know whether family is a blessing or a curse for me. How can an orphan girl who doesn't remember her life talk about marrying a good person? What's more, Wan The girl should not be the kind of shallow woman who naively thinks that marrying will give her peace of mind, although it is hard to fight for it by herself, it is practical, which is why Qingwu is not willing to go to the capital."

Wan Qingyan was silent for a while after hearing this, but Meng Chuxi had returned to her previous gentle appearance, and said sincerely: "Chuxi offended you just now, please forgive me. As for what Miss Wan just said, I know that according to your concern for Qingwu Love and protect her, I'm afraid it's too late to guard her, so why would I be that villain."

Looking at her, Wan Qingyan suddenly smiled, and said angrily, "You are really proficient in using both soft and hard techniques."

Meng Chuxi also laughed: "Miss Xuewan is yours."

Wan Qingyan laughed angrily, and sarcastically said: "No wonder Qingwu likes you so much, no one can handle your twists and turns."

"Please don't worry Miss Wan, I won't play tricks on Qingwu, and I really appreciate you pointing out the problem between me and Qingwu for me, which made her feel at ease."

Wan Qingyan is also helpless now, and aside from Zhou Qingwu's matter, she really appreciates Meng Chuxi.

"I hope you won't regret it in the future, let alone harm Qingwu. Although I can't take her away, I can still make decisions for her. Don't think that she is an orphan and you can handle her."

This has softened, Meng Chuxi nodded with a smile.It's just that Wan Qingyan still didn't let go of the big rock in her heart.There is no absolute strength in this world, and there will be obstacles everywhere. Even though Meng Chuxi is sincere, she can't imagine how difficult it is.I'm afraid that it will only be one more person who will be hurt.No matter how worried she was, she wasn't Zhou Qingwu's own sister, so how would she go about beating mandarin ducks with sticks?
