Shattered Glass (Shang Li)

4: past

Under the large pergola, people were sitting in clusters of flowers. Mei Li lowered her head and followed the eunuch. Even if she didn't have to look at her, she knew that everyone was watching her. Not uncomfortable? not nervous? They were all fake... Everything she had to face next, she smiled lightly and faintly, and regarded it as her punishment.

"Miri, how did you come?" Xiaozhuang waved his hand to avoid her bowing, and gestured to the chair next to her to sit down.

"Oh, are you really released?" A voice said very presumptuously, indifferent and mean, without regard to the presence of the Empress Dowager.

Because she had expected to encounter such embarrassment, Mei Li was calm, she couldn't help but look up at the speaker, also because she was not sure that it was Jingxian.

"Well, it's released." Miri smiled.

"Isn't it said that the land of your house is coming back? Why are you dressed more poorly? Isn't it because the master is absent in the past two years, and the property has been deceived by the conscientious slave?" Jingxian said and sneered. A few times.

"Okay! Don't be mad!" The cold-faced Xiaozhuang couldn't help but squeeze her in a low voice, frowning and holding back his anger for a while. All the female relatives present here seemed to have not heard Jingxian's words, and they greeted each other with greetings and laughs.

Jingxian... Mei Li didn't want to provoke her, she lowered her eyes not to meet her provocative gaze. At that time, the stories of the Hall of Supreme Harmony were so blatant that no one knew it, and the arrogant Jingxian was hit hard, but she didn't expect it to become so acrimonious. She used to be cute and pleasant at least in front of her ancestors. The ancestors endured her in every possible way, and felt that she was innocent and unfortunate for what happened back then, and felt that she owed her.

"Today's weather is right," Xiaozhuang smiled reluctantly and talked to several ladies nearby, turning off the embarrassment. "Look, it's only a few days since I haven't seen you, I feel that those children have grown up into boys again! The years have passed so fast! In a blink of an eye, the children are older, and we are all old."

Time flies fast? Her two years...as long as a lifetime.

"The ancestors are not old at all!" A woman whom Mei Li didn't know smiled and said, "The slave and maidservant went to Beijing with my master for nine years. When I come back to see, the ancestors are still the same!"

Xiaozhuang laughed when she said, "You, you still make me happy like you were by my side. I heard the emperor say that your son also came back, and he has never seen him."

Mei Li took a close look at the woman. She had heard of her. It should have been Yingru who had gone into the palace with Aunt Yu'an to serve her ancestor. The ancestor pointed her to the door because she liked her. The son is so dear, and later her husband became the governor of Chahar, and she also became a first-class fate. Uncle Hai always used Yingru's aunt to warn her about how important it is to win the favor of her ancestors.

"I'm here!" Seeing that the ancestors took the initiative to mention her son, Mrs. Ying Ru was grateful and pleasantly surprised, and quickly ordered the close maid: "Hurry up and call Yonghe!"

Several Fujin and the girls here were obviously interested in the upcoming appearance of Young Master Yonghe, and they all took their eyes away from Mei Li.

Look at the posture... Mei Li lowered her head, this Governor Chahar returned to Beijing to be promoted, and his wife was eating like this again with the ancestors, and the limelight was in full swing.
