Before Fang Chengyin could react, her body reacted first, and she walked back quickly. When she came here just now, she couldn't get enough of the mountains and rivers along the way. Now she just hated that she couldn't fly away. Her mind was completely empty, and she couldn't react even when she heard Gu Changlin calling her. She got on the horse without saying a word under Gu Changlin's surprised gaze, and rode away.
"This girl. Why did she leave right after arriving?" Gu Changlin shook his head at Yiqi Hongchen and was about to turn around and go in. He saw Mei Ya coming from the corner holding a bunch of lotus flowers. Gu Changlin looked at the bunch of flowers, and then at Mei Ya's palm-sized smiling face behind the flowers, and couldn't help but smile too. "Our girl is much prettier than these lotus flowers."
"Sir, you're making fun of me again!" Meiya was a little embarrassed, but her eyes were sparkling, and it was obvious that she was in a good mood.
"It's fine if I tell you that you don't believe it. But why don't you believe it even when the gentleman says this?" Zhong Mingwei also walked over from behind the wall and said with a smile.
"You two are just trying to fool me with this!" Meiya hummed to the two of them. Then she ran happily to the yard holding Lotus, humming, "Lotus can be picked in the south of the Yangtze River. The lotus leaves are so lush. Fish play among the lotus leaves. Fish play on the lotus leaves in the east, fish play on the lotus leaves in the west, fish play on the lotus leaves in the south..."
"Did you teach the girl to sing?" Gu Changlin looked at Zhong Mingwei with a smile.
"I can't sing," Zhong Mingwei waved his hands and pointed toward the courtyard, smiling, "She is quite capable. Every time I teach her a poem, she can memorize it twice and then sing it by herself."
“It sounds nice.”
"Yes, it sounds very nice." Zhong Mingwei also nodded, watching Mei Ya's figure turn a corner and disappear behind the empty screen wall. He looked up and down at the screen wall, wondering how big a brush Pang Yi would have to buy so that he could write on this wall.
"Wow! They caught quite a lot of fish!" Gu Changlin saw Kong Wenjie coming over with a small bucket of fish, and he leaned over to take a look, saying happily, "There are silver carp, carp, and snapper! If we stew them in a pot, it will definitely be delicious, not bad!"
"Madam just mentioned that when stewing fish, we should add some lotus flowers to taste lotus fish," Kong Wenjie laughed and walked towards the courtyard, while saying to Zhong Mingwei who was standing in front of the screen wall, "Master, have you ever eaten lotus fish?"
"No," Zhong Mingwei shook his head and said with a smile, "Isn't it time to eat it?"
"Not today, we have to eat pig's leg today," Gu Changlin seemed to have remembered something and hurried over to say, "Just now a girl came to see Mei Ya and brought a wild boar's leg. It's very fresh. It's so hot, if we don't eat it, it will be wasted. Let's not eat fish today, let's eat pig's leg!"
"What girl?" As soon as Gu Changlin finished speaking, Zhong Mingwei and Kong Wenjie became alert at the same time and looked at him.
Mei Ya didn't have many acquaintances in Ningguta, and Zhong Mingwei had never heard her say that she was familiar with any girl, let alone anyone who had ever come to visit her. In addition, it was an extraordinary period, so Zhong Mingwei and Kong Wenjie were naturally very nervous.
"It's that girl. She is very pretty, and even prettier when she smiles. Mingwei, you haven't seen her, but Xiao Kong, you know her." Gu Changlin raised his chin towards Kong Wenjie.
Kong Wenjie thought for a long time, but was still confused: "Who is it?"
"It was the last time we met in Zhenweizhai, and you were holding clothes for the girl at that time," Gu Changlin added, "You must be very familiar with the girl, otherwise how could you hold clothes for her? Xiao Kong, do you remember it?"
"She, she, she's here?" Kong Wenjie immediately stuttered. He looked around and asked Gu Changlin, "Where is she now?"
