Chapter 319 Furious
Li Mei'er looked at Bai Zijian's eyes and couldn't help but feel nervous. Now she had to stay in Bai Mansion to get a chance to get close to him, but she couldn't let the small lose the big!
If I offend my uncle, I'm afraid I won't have such an opportunity in the future. Dang even said in a panic: "I forgot about it when I came out. I really deserve a beating. Without me around, I'm afraid it's my grandmother." Since we don’t have a good meal anymore, uncle, aunt, and Meier will take their leave first!”
Bai Zijian nodded slightly, looked at Li Meier and said, "Go! Your grandmother loves you the most, so you have to accompany her to relieve her boredom!"
"Yes!" Li Meier hurriedly saluted. Seeing that no one was leaving her, she turned around and left unwillingly, twisting the handkerchief in her hands as if she wanted to vent all the anger in her heart.
Bai Qi'an hurried over and frowned when he saw Li Mei'er's furious look. Then he calmly bowed slightly and saluted, "Cousin!"
Li Mei'er hurriedly pulled her lips and smiled, and said kindly: "Cousin is after school? I just have a guest at home. Now I have to go to the dining hall. Cousin, please come in quickly! Save the distinguished guests from waiting!"
Bai Qi'an nodded slightly and hurriedly stepped aside to make way. Then Li Mei'er walked over with a smile on her face. She kept such a smile all the way, and her face couldn't help but feel a little sore.
Bai Qi'an has not seen Leng Ye for several days since he returned to Bai Mansion. Now he can't help but feel a little cordial when he meets him again. Ever since he heard him talk about what happened on the battlefield, Bai Qi'an immediately admired him.
Bai Zijian couldn't help but look sideways at the way he pestered him with questions along the way. He had never seen Qi'an rely on someone so much, and he had never been so intimate even to himself.
Also, when did he become so familiar with Leng Ye.
Seeing the confusion in Bai Zijian's eyes, Mrs. Ye quickly looked at him and said, "Xiao An was treated by Divine Doctor Helian a few days ago and lives with Leng Ye, so he is very familiar with her."
Bai Zijian then thought that Bai Qian had indeed been away from home for a few days. Seeing the two of them speculating so much, Bai Zijian was also very pleased, and looked at Leng Ye's expression with even more satisfaction.
Compared with the happy thoughts here, Li Mei'er looked at the food in front of her but couldn't eat it. Seeing how worried she looked, Mrs. Bai couldn't help but asked with concern: "Mei'er, what's going on? She looks worried. , but why have you been wronged?"
The corners of Li Mei'er's mouth raised slightly, and she gave a forced smile. She looked at Mrs. Bai with a lonely expression and said, "It's nothing. I just suddenly heard that my cousin was getting engaged, so I was a little surprised."
After hearing this, Mrs. Bai could not help but feel a flash of disgust in her eyes, then she looked at Li Meier and said: "She had an engagement in the country, you don't know about it.
I get angry when you mention this marriage, and I don’t know what your uncle and aunt think about it, so let me tell you! She should not have been allowed to continue to have anything to do with the countryside in the first place.
It's good now. It's really disappointing to have to accept this marriage with that mud-legged guy without choosing from so many famous families in Beijing. Hey! I'm old, and what I say is no longer useful, and I can't control so much! "
Li Mei'er listened to Mrs. Bai's words, and a flash of fantasy flashed in her eyes. If she had broken off the engagement, would she have had a glimmer of hope? But now it seems that it is unlikely, and she can only find a way elsewhere.
Seeing Mrs. Bai's angry look, Li Mei'er hurriedly tried to persuade her with pretense of surprise: "Don't you know, grandma? My cousin's fiancé is now a Zhongyong Marquis newly conferred by the Holy Emperor, or a Zhongwu General!"
Mrs. Bai looked at Li Meier in surprise and said, "Is Marquis Zhongyong Qing'er's fiancé?"
Thinking of the Leng Ye she saw at the celebration banquet, Mrs. Bai nodded with satisfaction. He was handsome and well-groomed, and now that he holds great power, he seemed to be a good match.
Then he thought about hiding it from himself and his face became even more livid: "Why didn't anyone tell me about this? They really don't take me seriously anymore. Come here, invite the master over. I want to ask in person!"
Seeing Mrs. Bai's angry look, Li Mei'er hurriedly stepped forward to comfort her: "Grandma, calm down. My uncle just learned about it, so he didn't come over to explain it to you. Besides, you haven't been feeling well these past few days, so you can't spare them." Please give me your regards? No wonder uncle!"
Mrs. Bai snorted coldly and said angrily: "Since it's not your uncle's fault, it's because the mother and daughter deliberately concealed it. They are getting more and more wanton!"
Li Meier's eyes turned slightly, she picked up the serving chopsticks and carefully picked out a piece of fish meat for Mrs. Bai, carefully picked out the fish bones, and then slowly brought it to Mrs. Bai.
She said softly: "Grandma, how can you say that! My uncle and aunt are the most filial people. I must have forgotten to tell you. You see, this is your favorite. My aunt knows that you like to eat boiled fish. , I even went to Shundong to ask the chef to cook for you to satisfy your craving! You are the backbone of this house!"
Mrs. Bai was filled with joy after being flattered by Li Mei'er, and then she said indifferently: "It's better to just talk about things than let my servants run errands. I understand in my heart! That means you can accompany me by my side." It’s fun to relieve your boredom, but when you get married, you probably won’t be able to stay with me for long.”
Li Mei'er didn't know what she was thinking of. Her face turned red and she quickly looked at Mrs. Bai and said shyly: "Mei'er doesn't want to get married! Mei'er will stay with her grandmother and serve you!"
"Hahaha! That can't happen. If that's the case, your mother will probably make trouble with me again. My Meier is so knowledgeable and courteous, she will definitely find a suitable husband in the future. Grandma will have to choose carefully for you!" Seeing Li Meier being so considerate, Mrs. Bai felt very happy. The gloom just now was swept away, and the smile on her face could not be concealed.
After dinner, Li Meier chatted with Mrs. Bai for a few words. Seeing how sleepy she looked, she hurriedly said, "It's time for grandma to rest. Meier won't be here, so as not to disturb grandma's peace!"
Mrs. Bai nodded slightly, "That's fine! I'm older now, and my body is relatively tired. I'm not as good as you young people! If you have nothing to do, you should go to your cousin's place more often to keep in touch with each other. If you get married in the future, you want to I’m afraid it won’t be convenient to be so close anymore!”
It can be seen that Leng Ye is highly valued by the emperor now. If Qing'er marries her in the future, it is still necessary for Mei'er to be on good terms with her!
After listening to Mrs. Bai's words, her eyes flashed and she couldn't help but lower her eyes. She responded softly and helped Mrs. Bai to sleep before turning around and leaving.
I just feel a little unwilling in my heart, but in order to see him more often in the future, for now, I can only lower my profile.
