Chenjiatun.
When Mei Ya and Zhong Mingwei came, Grandma Chen was picking vegetables in the yard. Seeing Mei Ya and Zhong Mingwei approaching, Grandma Chen's eyes dimmed, and she immediately put down the vegetables in her hands and hurriedly stood up to greet them. She smiled and said, "Why are you here?"
"Grandma, Mingwei and I came to see you specially." Meiya reached out and held Grandma Chen's hand. Her big eyes twinkled, very beautiful. "Grandma, we have moved to the foot of Nanshan Mountain now, very close to Chenjiatun. I will come to see you often in the future. If you are free, come over and sit with me."
"Yes, yes, it is indeed closer than before," Grandma Chen nodded with a smile. At the same time, she called into the house again. "Qingxuan, the girls are here."
In fact, Chen Qingxuan had heard the noise a long time ago, since the carriage stopped in front of the door. He heard the noise, and he looked out the window. He saw Mei Ya got off the carriage first, and then went to help Zhong Mingwei. She looked up at Zhong Mingwei. I don't know what Zhong Mingwei said to her, and then she covered her mouth and laughed, and Zhong Mingwei also laughed, and got off the carriage with some effort, and then the two of them walked into the yard laughing.
It's not that Chen Qingxuan has never seen Meiya laugh before. Meiya loves to laugh and she always has smiling eyes. Chen Qingxuan likes Meiya's laugh very much. Even though this girl has a scar on her chin, she looks very beautiful when she laughs. Even the dark red scar looks so dazzling. This girl's laugh is really contagious and always makes you laugh along with her. But this time, Chen Qingxuan just can't laugh. He stared at the girl who was talking and laughing in the yard. Unconsciously, his hands were clenched into fists and he even tore the book.
…
"Qingxuan, the girls are here!"
Suddenly, Grandma Chen's voice was heard outside, and Chen Qingxuan came back to his senses.
"Oh, I'll be right out." Chen Qingxuan looked in astonishment at the "General History of Ancient and Modern Times" that had been torn to pieces. He took two deep breaths, then opened the drawer and threw the book in. Then he hurriedly got up and went out to greet him.
"Mr. Chen," Mei Yafu smiled even more happily when she saw Chen Qingxuan, "I knew from the beginning that you were going back to the village to study hard for the exam, but I didn't know when you would be back, so we discussed on the way that if we didn't see you today, we would go to Jixian Book House to look for you tomorrow."
"Is there something urgent? Do you have to go to Jixian Bookstore?" Chen Qingxuan asked Meiya, and then led the two of them into the main hall to sit down.
"Yes, it's a very important matter," Mei Ya said with red cheeks. She glanced at Chen Qingxuan, lowered her head a little embarrassedly, and then pointed at Zhong Mingwei, "Let him talk to you!"
Without waiting for Zhong Mingwei to speak, Mei Ya hurried to the yard with her skirt lifted up and sat next to Grandma Chen: "Grandma, I'll help you pick the vegetables!"
"Why would I need your help?" Grandma Chen was too busy to stop her from doing anything. "There aren't many left. I can pick them myself. You are wearing new clothes, right? Don't get them dirty."
"It's okay, I'm careful," Mei Ya said as she rolled up her sleeves. Then she snatched a handful of leeks from Grandma Chen's hand without saying a word and started picking them one by one.
"Girl, do you have something to do here today?" Grandma Chen hesitated for a long time before asking.
"Yes, something happened." Meiya's face turned red again. She turned her head to look inside the house and whispered to Grandma Chen, "Grandma, I'm getting married."
"W-what?" Grandma Chen was speechless. She stared at Meiya for a long time before she realized, "The date has been decided?"
"It's settled, on May 20th," Meiya said shyly, but also with a little sweetness, "that's the day after tomorrow, Grandma Chen, you and Mr. Chen must come to our wedding feast then."
"So fast," Grandma Chen calmed down, looking at Meiya's flushed face and the drooping leeks in her hand, she felt really bad, but she still smiled and looked at Meiya with a smile, "Have you prepared the dowry and other things?"
