Chapter 131 Xiao Jiu, whose connections are against the will of heaven


    Meng Qianqian touched her chin.


    The bearded neighbor turned out to be a carpenter. He didn''t treat Baoshu like a villain, so why did he fight with Ji Li?


    Ji Li must have messed with others!


    Next door, Ji Li, who was suffering from the shame of being a little bitch, sneezes hard.


    Meng Qianqian said again: "Grandma Feng, do you know which neighbors live in the alley?"


    Grandma Feng said, "I''ve walked almost all the time. There is a thief opposite you, but I don''t live forever. I live more than a carpenter."


    Meng Qianqian once heard Chun''s mother say that many people who lived in Fengshui Hutong in the early years relied on their skills to make a living. If there had not been a murder, this would have been the most lively alley in the capital.


    “Then…”


    Grandma Feng wanted to speak but stopped, "That''s all. That guy shouldn''t come back, you can''t meet him. They don''t like to be disturbed, just say I introduced you."


    Meng Qianqian didn''t ask Grandma Feng who was the guy who shouldn''t come back. She nodded and said, "Thank you, Grandma Feng, what should I call him?"


    Grandma Feng said, "His surname is Lei."


    Meng Qianqian came out of Grandma Feng’s house, went back to the house to pick up a basket of fresh fruits and vegetables, and carried them to the end of the alley.


    The yard door was locked, but you could hear the clear slashing sound in the yard.


    Meng Qianqian knocked on the gate of the courtyard.


    No one responded at first, Meng Qianqian was not discouraged and continued to knock.


    Finally, the bearded man opened the yard gate impatiently, and the king and domineering spirit came: "Are you looking for death?"


    Meng Qianqian smiled and raised the fruit basket in her hand: "Hello Uncle Lei, I''m here to buy a bed."


    It’s not important to worry about whether it’s good or not, the focus is on taking care of neighborhood business.


    The bearded man looked away from her fruit basket and asked deeply, "Wife Feng asked you to come?"


    Meng Qianqian nodded.


    The bearded man holding a giant axe and said with a full evil spirit: "Does that immortal, do you really think his face is very useful?"


    Meng Qianqian blinked: "It doesn''t work."


    The bearded man turned around and walked towards the main hall: "Come in."


    Meng Qianqian: “…”


    Meng Qianqian carried the fruit basket into the yard.


    He is worthy of being a carpenter. The ground is full of wood that he cuts out from axe one by one. Meng Qianqian thought of the durable wood in her grandma''s house, and I wonder if it was also made by him.


    The other party’s home was bigger than Meng Qianqian imagined, especially after passing through the main hall, Meng Qianqian saw an extremely wide backyard, with many carvings placed in a mess, but it seemed that they were only half done.


    "Uncle Lei, are these custom made by others to you?"


    "no."


    He said, throwing a Haidong green wood carving into the brazier in the stove.


    "Uncle Lei, that... do you want it?"


    Meng Qianqian was very surprised.


    Although she hadn''t finished it, it was definitely the most lifelike wood carving she had ever seen.


    The bearded man said disgustedly, "I didn''t do it well."


    Meng Qianqian stopped talking.


    "There is only one bed, take it if you want it."


    The bearded man pushed open the door of the warehouse. There was only a large bed covered with a cloth in the huge warehouse. Judging from the outline and size, it should be a step-drawing bed.


    Meng Qianqian thinks that an ordinary stepping bed is enough. After all, you can’t buy a Qiangong bed, and it’s all customized three years in advance.


    “Just it.”


    Meng Qianqian said.


    The bearded man looked at Meng Qianqian unexpectedly and said, "Don''t you look at it? If you don''t like it, I won''t return the money to you."


    Meng Qianqian smiled: "I know!"


    The bearded man said, "Five hundred taels."


    Meng Qianqian was shocked.


    The bearded man frowned: "Is it expensive? Then, three hundred taels."


    Meng Qianqian said quietly: "Uncle Lei."


    The bearded man didn''t know the price on the market, and it seemed that it was not the price back then.


    He pondered for a moment and made up his mind: "One hundred taels."


    Meng Qianqian: “…”


    Meng Qianqian finally gave her five hundred taels, and her conscience would hurt.


    Madam Li learned about Meng Qianqian buying a bed. When she heard that she only spent 500 taels of silver, she became anxious at that time.


    Can a five hundred tael bed be used as a wedding bed for wealthy families?


    The worst outside is also worth 1,000 taels!


    "No, I have to go and have a look!"


    Madam Li took Madam Wan, Madam Hu and Madam Du to the bearded man''s house to see the bed.


    After watching it, the four of them stopped talking.


    "Do you want to retreat?" asked the bearded man.


    Madam Li stammered and said, "No, no...no retreat!"


    The three of them walked out with weak legs.


    "Miss...has you cheated on me?" For the first time, Madam Wan felt a little painful in her conscience.


    "Is it really only five hundred taels?" Madam Du said embarrassedly.


    Madam Hu said, "When the eldest lady married into the Lu family, the Qiangong beds she moved here were not as good as it."


    Madam Li cleared her throat and continued to stutter, "Du, don''t say it, go back, go back, go back...."


    The weather is getting warmer and the wedding is getting closer.


    But Meng Qianqian is actually very idle. In addition to practicing martial arts every day, she also spends time with Baoshu, occasionally sitting at her grandma''s house to help her repair the stove.


    As a thank you, Grandma Feng gave Meng Qianqian a pair of skeletons.


    "I have treasured it for a long time, and I am not willing to give it to others."


    Meng Qianqian smiled politely: "More... Thank you, Grandma Feng."


    This day is the day when all civil and military officials rest, and it is also the day when Meng Qianqian goes to the Lin family to make an appointment.


    Meng Qianqian called Yu Li.


    Yu Li said, "Am I going too?"


    Meng Qianqian said, "Don''t my cousin want to go?"


    Yu Li hurriedly said, "No, I''m afraid you are all female relatives. Will it be inconvenient for me to go?"


    Meng Qianqian smiled: "There are no outsiders this time, only Mrs. Lin''s family."


    Lin family.


    Mrs. Lin has given instructions since last night that there are distinguished guests at home today, so you must not neglect them.


    Even her husband was kept at home by her and she was not allowed to go anywhere.


    "Madam, is it necessary?"


    “Just this time!”


    Early in the morning, a maid reported that the guest had arrived.


    Mrs. Lin went to greet her with a smile. When she saw the visitor, she turned dark: "Why are you? I didn''t seem to invite you!"


    Mrs. Zhou smiled casually: "If you please, I have to come."


    Zhou Nanyan, dressed as a maid, jumped out of the carriage: "Aunt Lin!"


    Mrs. Lin immediately changed her face and said with a smile: "It''s Yan''er, come into the house quickly!"


    Zhou Nanyan smiled and held Mrs. Lin''s arm.


    At this time, Meng Qianqian and Yu Li also arrived.


    Tan''er didn''t come, she followed Meng Bo and the others to the Governor''s Office to set up a wedding bed.


    Meng Qianqian brought Banxia.


    Zhou Nanyan''s eyes lit up and she quietly shouted: "Sister Meng, Banxia!"


    Meng Qianqian bent her lips.


    Banxia quickly saluted: "Zhou..."


    Zhou Nanyan stopped her and whispered, "Okay, okay, I''m also a maid today."


    "Mrs. Lin, Mrs. Zhou." Meng Qianqian gave the younger generations to the two wives.


    Yu Li also bowed respectfully: "Mrs. Lin, Mrs. Zhou."


    Mrs. Lin looked at Yu Li with a smile, and said to the servant beside her, "Take Mr. Yu to the study."


    Yu Li didn''t think much about it and followed the servant.


    At the entrance of the study, the servant respectfully reported: "Master, Mr. Yu has arrived."


    Yu Li was stunned, Master? Is Mr. Lin’s father?


    He thought he was here to meet Mr. Lin.


    "Come in."


    A majestic voice came from inside.


    Yu Li calmed down and stepped inside, following the etiquette, not looking directly at the other person''s face, but only vaguely glimpsed a figure sitting behind the desk through the afterglow, which made people feel unaware of it.


    He bowed and said, "My junior, I have met Lord Lin."


    Mr. Lin’s father seemed to be an official, but he didn’t ask what official he was.


    Lin Zhengliang looked at him and said, "You are Yu Li?"


    Yu Li said, "Yes."


    Lin Zhengliang pointed to the small desk opposite: "Let''s start."


    Yu Li was stunned: "Huh?"


    Lin Jijiu said sternly: "Do the test paper! If you don''t take the exam, how do I know what you are doing? Is it qualified to be admitted to the Imperial College?"


    Yu Li: (⊙o⊙)


    Haha, do you know what Mrs. Lin used to **** Xiaojiu from home?
