Farmer’s Little Girl - Chapter 3507

Chapter 3507 Fanwai 40

Yangzhou in May is sunny and the best time to enjoy the lake is when the breeze blows. Fu Wenyun rented a boat and invited Zhou Man and the others to go to the lake.

“Knowing that you can play, I won’t take you to other places, but you must go to Yangzhou Lake Tour. This is the time when the perch is delicious. We can ask the boatman to make two. Good workmanship.”

She felt a little regretful, “It’s a pity that you didn’t come at the right time. If it had been two months earlier, it would have been the time when a hundred flowers were in full bloom. At that time, Yangzhou was colorful and bright, and it would have been beautiful.”

“Isn’t it raining in March?”

“The fog and rain are also pretty, but I still prefer the sunny days at that time. Flowers are sold in the streets and alleys, which are very bright.”

Said Zhou Man’s heart, turned his head and said to Bai Shan and the others: “Look for a chance, we will come to Yangzhou again in March and April.”

Bai Shan readily agreed, anyway, they have a lot of time in the future, and some of them have opportunities.

Fu Wenyun smiled and said, “Besides me, I also invited someone to accompany me.”

Zhou Man: “Who?”

Fu Wenyun said, “You will know when you see it tomorrow, it’s your acquaintance…”

Zhou Man racked his brains to think that both she was an acquaintance, Fu Wenyun knew him, and maybe she was in Jiangnan…

After thinking about it for a long time, she didn’t know who it was, so she simply asked, “It can’t be your brother, right? I’m not familiar with him, right?”

Fu Wenyun: “…If it was him, I would say it directly, why should I sell it? You just have to wait until tomorrow to find out.”

Zhou Man has never lacked curiosity about things that do not endanger her life, so she took Bai Shan and others out early the next morning, but she wanted to see who her acquaintance was.

Seeing Mrs. Mei holding a four or five-year-old girl standing beside the boat, Zhou Man opened his mouth in surprise.

She called out somewhat uncertainly, “Miss Mei?”

Mrs. Mei Yingying smiled and took her child to bow to Zhou Man, “Master Zhou, I haven’t seen you for many years.”

Zhou Man looked down at the little girl she was holding and asked curiously, “Who is this child?”

“It’s my eldest granddaughter.”

Zhou Man sighed, “Does Chengzu have a daughter?”

“Yes, thank you Lord Zhou.” Mrs. Mei pushed the little girl to her and smiled, “This is Chengzu’s eldest daughter, and I want to bring her to show her.”

Zhou Man reached out and touched the little girl’s chin, looked at her and said, “Why do I look like Mr. Mei.”

Mrs. Mei squinted her eyes and smiled, “Yes, among the three children, she looks the most like the father.” So she also pets her the most.

Zhou Man stared at the little girl, with a serious face that really looked like Mr. Mei, she couldn’t help laughing, “Like Mr. Mei, you are lucky.”

A group of people boarded the boat.

Zhou Man asked Mrs. Mei, “When did you come to Yangzhou?”

“After I gave birth, my father took my husband and I to Yangzhou and lived in Yangzhou all these years.”

Mr. Mei was quite courageous. Back then, after meeting his ex-son-in-law, Yi Jue, in front of everyone in the capital, he concentrated on taking care of his daughter’s body, while also finding her a next husband.

In the end, I picked a scholar.

The other party is from Yongzhou. When he was young, he was raised by both his parents. He was raised by his brother and sister-in-law, but his family was average.

Because he has read books, he often runs errands for scholars in Zhuangyuan Building and Guozijian to make some money, and occasionally copies books, and his handwriting is good.

At that time, when he saw the lawsuit of the Mei family in the Zhuangyuan Building, he felt that Mrs. Mei’s ex-husband was very inauthentic. If he had such a good family in law, he would definitely treat his father-in-law as a filial father, and his wife was so docile, even thinking about accepting it. Concubine gives birth to a child…

Then he was really spotted by Mr. Mei and chose to be his husband.

In choosing a son-in-law this time, Mr. Mei has to be a lot more cautious, and he has observed the other party for half a year before starting to propose.

The other party was stunned, but Mr. Mei didn’t decide on him immediately, but let his daughter interact with the other party for half a year, making sure that the other party was willing to return to Jiangnan to live with them, and then settled down quickly.

At that time, Mrs. Mei’s body had already been conditioned, and they were sure that Mrs. Mei was pregnant within three months of their marriage.

Mr. Mei was afraid that his daughter and grandson would be in danger, so he stayed in the capital until Mrs. Mei gave birth safely, and after confinement, he returned to Jiangnan with the whole family.

Soon after, he moved to Yangzhou, not far from his hometown. He avoided some relatives at home and still had some old friends here.

Mrs. Mei did not shy away from mentioning the past, “He was very good, he listened to his father’s words, and he was also good to me. After he arrived in Yangzhou, his father took him to study with him. I went to the academy to become a teacher, and we have been living in Yangzhou all these years, and we have had a good life.”

Zhou Man looked at Mrs. Mei, who had a ruddy face and no sadness, and said with a smile: “I can see that, the lady is indeed very lucky.”

“Father said, I have been blessed by adults.”

Fu Wenyun smiled and said, “Even with me, I got your blessing.”

Zhou Man: “Huh?”

Fu Wenyun and the others were unfamiliar when they first arrived in Yangzhou. This is a place where Yang and Shu have to be careful when they come.

Yue Lan has no roots and no foundation. Even if Yangzhou’s officialdom had been purged once before, his work was still not easy to start when he came.

Of course, it’s not impossible, just follow the current situation here and join forces.

But then, he would not be an official for a long time, and Fu Wenyun was not reconciled. At that time, he met Mr. Mei and Mrs. Mei.

Mr. Mei asked Mrs. Mei to lead her to various banquets in Yangzhou, which opened up the situation.

Mr. Mei, as a world-famous painter and calligrapher, has a very high status in the Jiangnan area.

Yue Lan, the prefect of Yangzhou, may not be able to do the best, but he is definitely not bad in the past few years, at least he has not lived up to the trust of the court, and he is not ashamed of the local people.

Fu Wenyun knew that Mr. Mei’s move was to repay Li, Li was Zhou Man, but the peaches came to her.

“I told Xianggong that if there is a chance to go back to Beijing, I must thank you very well, but you came before we went back.” Speaking of their resignation, Fu Wenyun sighed, “I didn’t expect you to resign so quickly. official……”

Without waiting for Zhou Man to explain, she laughed again, “But it’s a good thing for you to retreat bravely. Although it’s a pity, it should be a big deal.”

Zhou Man couldn’t help laughing out loud, “It’s really good and bad for you to finish.”

Fu Wenyun couldn’t help laughing, and had a cup of tea with Zhou Man.

Zhou Man and the others stayed in Yangzhou for a few days. They visited many places and bought a lot of good things. Mrs. Mei gave them a calligraphy and painting, all written by Mr. Mei.

Not only Zhou Man and Bai Shan, but also Yin or happy, said: “This painting can be handed down to the family.”

Mingda also cherished it and put it away.

The group left with a lot of harvest. Fu Wenyun found a boat for them to go north. They could take the boat directly to Qingzhou and take the sea route, which is much faster.
