A major event happened in Jinzhou City recently. The city lord Meng Xing offered ten carts of rare antiques, gold, silver and treasures as a hire to marry the sister of the city lord's wife.
As soon as the news came out, the entire city of Jinzhou exploded.
Speaking of the city lord and his wife, they are a match made in heaven.The two have known each other since they were young, and they established a partnership at the age when they first fell in love. They have been very affectionate along the way, and they are a model couple that everyone in Jinzhou City envies.
It's a pity that two months ago, the wife of the city lord suddenly fell ill and died in the city lord's mansion. Meng Xing hurriedly buried his wife, and within two months of being sad, he went to Fang's mansion to propose marriage.
It's just that compared with ten years ago, the object of marriage proposal this time has changed from the magnificent eldest lady with both civil and military skills to the second young lady who is so sick that she has to take a few steps to take a breath.
So in the teahouse and tavern during this period, people's discussions on this matter can be heard everywhere.Some people said that the city lord could not forget his wife so he married his younger sister, which is understandable because of the deep affection; others said that Meng Xing was a hypocrite who actually killed his first wife for the sake of his new love.
People have different opinions on this matter.Things have developed to this point, the truth is no longer important, what is important is that it is rare to be able to catch the words of the city lord.
It was late at night, Meng Xiao sneaked from the room to the roof to watch the moon.He is only eight years old, but because his parents are usually strict, it is not difficult for him to step on the roof with light work.
Two servants walked past under the eaves of the courtyard opposite, holding festive window paper in their hands, their faces glowing red.
"The new wife will be here in two days. Guess how much money we can get this time?"
"How do I know this? But I heard that when the first wife married in, each person was rewarded with five pennies. The new wife just came, and if the subordinates are to be convinced by her and buy people's hearts, I'm afraid the reward will be a lot more." Bar?"
"Five strings of money? Mrs. Xian is really generous. I only regret that I was young ten years ago and didn't come here."
"You think it's rich, but you don't know that it's just a small amount of money to them. Think about the day..."
The two gradually walked away, their voices also lowered, and finally disappeared in the night wind.
Meng Xiao's face was sullen, he listened to what the two servants were saying, his face was numb.
The new lady... the new lady!His mother had only passed away two months ago, but now no one remembered that the mistress of the City Lord's Mansion was the eldest lady of the Fang family, not the second young lady of the Fang family who hadn't been married yet.
After all, Meng Xiao is young and has not yet learned to fight loneliness and sadness alone.He put his forehead against his knees, buried his face in the crook of his arms, and twitched slightly.
The moon was as cool as water, and the evening wind blew into his empty clothes, and the chill invaded his small body.
At some point the wind stopped, Meng Xiao wiped away tears, raised his head, and saw a half-grown boy in white clothes staring at him in bewilderment standing a few inches away from him.
Seeing him looking up, Su Jinmian felt a little embarrassed. He didn't expect to see Meng Xiao who was crying when he entered the barrier, especially this Meng Xiao seemed to be... a child.
While praying in his heart that Meng Xiao would not trouble himself after leaving the barrier, he showed a self-conscious smile.
Meng Xiao's face was stained with a thin layer of anger, he looked at Su Jinmian: "Who are you?"
Su Jinmian knew that Meng Xiao was secretly crying and was furious when he was found out. If he said something wrong again, he might really be hated.
He stammered and explained: "Don't be afraid, I'm a good person."
He said this like a trafficker who abducted children.
There was no trace of fear on Meng Xiao's face, he stared at Su Jinmian closely, and pressed his thin lips tightly: "When did you arrive?"
Su Jinmian had a flash of inspiration: "Just arrived, don't worry, I didn't see you cry."
After he finished speaking, Meng Xiao's face turned darker.
Su Jinmian realized that he had said the wrong thing, regretting so much that he wanted to slap himself.He looked at Meng Xiao helplessly: "Then what, I'm really not..."
Before he finished speaking, Meng Xiao had already gathered a cloud of spiritual energy in his hand and hit him.
Su Jinmian was startled and escaped by luck.He glanced at the quiet courtyard below, and was a little scared: "What are you doing, wait until everyone comes!"
Meng Xiao took a deep breath as if he had got something to say, "Come here, scratch——hm..."
He glared fiercely at Su Jinmian who was covering his mouth in a hurry. If his eyes could turn into reality, Su Jinmian might experience a severe pain today.
Su Jinmian coaxed him in a low voice: "Don't call me Brother Meng, Brother Meng, Xiaozu Meng? I really mean nothing!"
God knows how much he misses that Senior Brother Meng who always had a smile on his face, even if it's a fake smile, it's a thousand times better than the little guy who doesn't listen to anyone's words now.
Meng Xiao was still struggling, he was not as strong as Su Jinmian, so he tried to bite Su Jinmian's palm with his mouth.
It's a pity that the degree of difficulty of this movement is too high, even if he tried his best, he still couldn't complete it.
Su Jinmian looked at him with a wry smile: "If you don't want me to cover it, I won't, but if I let go, don't talk, okay?"
Meng Xiao immediately stopped moving, and he blinked his eyes, as if agreeing to Su Jinmian's words.
Su Jinmian breathed a sigh of relief. As soon as he let go, Meng Xiao immediately ran forward, shouting, "The assassin has been caught! Someone!"
Su Jinmian was in a bad mood, and following Meng Xiao's shout, flames gathered here quickly.He subconsciously wanted to hide, but when he looked up, he saw Meng Xiao, who had forgotten where he was because he was afraid, stepped on the ground and fell off the roof.
Su Jinmian gritted her teeth, and flew in the direction of Meng Xiao with light work.
He caught the falling Meng Xiao from mid-air, and when he heard the approaching footsteps, he felt hopeless and closed his eyes in despair.
In the next second, he fell into a large and warm embrace.
The owner in his arms turned him around a few times, and Su Jinmian dared to open his eyes when he heard the voices of those people getting smaller and smaller until finally they couldn't hear them anymore.
Su Jinmian buried half of his face in the chest of the visitor. He looked at the invisible face and could only raise his head slightly.
The moment he saw the face clearly, he put his elbows against the other's chest, trying to break free.The other party tightened the hand around his waist, and said in a flat tone, "Do you want to fall to your death?"
Only then did Su Jinmian remember that they were still in mid-air, and angrily stopped their restless movements.
When he landed on the ground, he took a step back, then put Meng Xiao on the ground, and called out in embarrassment: "Eldest brother."
Luo Wu nodded, his eyes fell on Meng Xiao, and his tone was rarely interesting: "Meng Yuanzhou?"
Su Jinmian nodded, coughed dryly, looked at Meng Xiao who was staring at Luo Wu with gloomy eyes, and introduced, "This is my elder brother, and it's also yours."
Meng Xiao pursed her lips and refused to speak.
But Luo Wu nodded: "His hostility towards me is still the same as before."
Su Jinmian didn't dare to speak.He was still thinking about how to explain the situation tonight to Meng Xiao, and Meng Xiao, who had dismissed him just now, was the first to speak out: "Do you like me?"
"Ah?" Su Jinmian was puzzled for a moment, but quickly realized, "Huh?"
"I figured it out. You took the initiative to find me and brought me out tonight. You must have admired me for a long time. If that's the case, anyway, I don't have anyone I like yet, so I can let you line up first."
The more Su Jinmian listened, the more dizzy she became: "What line are you in?"
"I allow you to double cultivate with me!" Meng Xiao had a contemptuous expression of "Why are you so stupid?" Su Jinmian almost really wondered if he was stupid than others.
Su Jinmian never thought that these words could come from a child who was only a few years old.
However, when he remembered the first time he met Meng Xiao when he crossed over, the other party also said "I allow you and me to cultivate together", not only was he not surprised, but a feeling of "it really is you" came out in his heart.
He sneaked a glance at Luo Wu. Although the latter had a bad face, he was not surprised at what Meng Xiao said.
Su Jinmian coughed lightly: "No, do you know what double cultivation is? Just say that?"
"Of course I know." Meng Xiao looked up at him unconvinced, "But I'm still young, you have to wait for me to grow up, almost ten years, are you waiting?"
Luo Wu was afraid that he would say nasty things to Su Jinmian if he continued, so he couldn't help but stepped forward to stop him: "Okay, no one here wants to double cultivate with you."
Meng Xiao glanced at him: "Who are you?"
Luo Wu didn't say anything, Su Jinmian was afraid that the two of them would quarrel, so he hurried out to smooth things over: "This is my elder brother, I said it before."
"You really like me!" Meng Xiao had a remorseful expression on his face, "No wonder you just said that this person is also my elder brother. After performing the ritual of double cultivation, I should change my words."
Su Jinmian's forehead twitched, and he wanted to explain: "No, I..."
Before he finished speaking, Meng Xiao's face darkened when he heard the word "no", and he looked at Luo Wu again: "Isn't it senior brother, is it a concubine?"
The corner of Su Jinmian's mouth twitched, he really couldn't figure out who Meng Xiao learned these words from at such a young age.
He wanted to cry but had no tears: "Who taught you these words?"
"My mother." Meng Xiao thought of something, his eyes half-downcast, "My mother said that my father and my aunt made a concubine. He committed a crime and died a terrible death. But they are still alive and well, and my mother is gone. .”
The eight-year-old child stood in the wind, with his clothes hanging empty on his body, looking thin and pitiful.
Su Jinmian escaped the detection of the enchantment and now became a part of the enchantment, so he naturally knew the background of Meng Xiao's story.He didn't know what to say for a while, he just felt that the seemingly strong and incomprehensible senior brother Meng, and now this nonsense kid was a bit pitiful.
Just now Meng Xiao said that there is no one he likes yet, but he experienced the pain of losing his mother when he was eight years old. The aunt who seemed to love him so much was full of heart to marry the father who is the lord of the city. Who cares about his feelings? How many people in the government really like him?
He squatted gently in front of Meng Xiao and gave him a warm hug.
As soon as the news came out, the entire city of Jinzhou exploded.
Speaking of the city lord and his wife, they are a match made in heaven.The two have known each other since they were young, and they established a partnership at the age when they first fell in love.
