Chapter 2193 Ask Aunt Hong What She Means
Aunt Hong quickly lowered her head and picked two handfuls of the tenderest spinach from the stall and stuffed it into Shu Yu's basket. "You take this dish back. If you eat well, I will give it to you next time."
Shu Yu didn't refuse. She wanted to give Aunt Qian Hong two handfuls of spinach but she wouldn't take it. She accepted it generously, "Okay, then I'm not polite. We also need to buy some meat. Aunt, you go first." Busy, see you later.”
"Hey, okay."
Shu Yu didn't say much, and continued walking inside with Ying Xi and Xiao Song Le. When he came out after buying the things, Aunt Hong was no longer there.
There weren't a lot of vegetables on her stall, so she probably sold them all and went back.
Shu Yu was thoughtful. When the three of them returned home, Meng Yunzheng was already practicing his sword in the yard.
What surprised Shu Yu was that the people who had been watching outside the past few days were gone.
She put the things she was carrying in the kitchen and asked curiously, "When I went out in the morning, there were some servants outside who wanted to see you. Why were they all gone when I came back? Aren't the results of the palace examination not out yet?" Have they given up trying to win over you?"
Meng Yuncheng retracted his sword, exhaled slowly, thought for a moment and said, "Maybe he feels that I have been abandoned by the emperor."
Shu Yu's face was full of confusion, "Are you rejected by the emperor?" Where did he start?
Meng Yunzheng repeated the conversation he had with the emperor in the hall yesterday. There were many people present at that time.
After this night of fermentation, everyone should know everything that happened in Zichen Palace.
Those who pestered Meng Yunzheng were people who said that wind is like rain. When they heard that he had offended the emperor, they thought that even if he really became a Jinshi, his rank would not be too high, and the emperor would not give him any good errands. Naturally, I don’t want to work hard on him.
Shu Yu was speechless for a long time, "However, if I didn't know about your relationship with the Emperor, I'm afraid I would have thought that the Emperor was deliberately trying to embarrass you with those words... Wait, the Emperor didn't really mean what he said. Those words, right?”
"It's not intentional, he just expressed his dissatisfaction with me going back to open an academy after taking the exam."
Shu Yu expressed that she understood that the emperor was now very thirsty for talents. Meng Yunzheng and he had known each other for a long time. The two had worked together many times and had a perfect understanding. However, such a person did not want to stay to assist him. Thinking about it, he would Vomiting blood.
Shu Yu sympathized with the emperor for three seconds, then happily went to the kitchen to cook a feast.
After lunch, Shu Yu planned to go to Aunt Hong's house, and Meng Yuncheng also planned to go.
Unexpectedly, before he went out, Xie Bo came to the door, not only him, but also Xun Sheng.
After the palace examination was over, Xun Sheng ran over directly when he knew that Meng Yunzheng was free. After all, when the results are released in three days, he will have to return to Changjin Mansion, and Meng Yunzheng may have to stay in the capital as an official, and will not be able to see him for at least three years.
Seeing that they were chatting animatedly, Shu Yu simply took Xiao Song Le there by himself.
Aunt Hong was indeed at home, and she was the only one at home.
No matter if she was alone, she came here because she wanted to discuss something with Aunt Hong.
"Why is Miss Lu here?" Aunt Hong was washing clothes. When she saw them coming, she quickly got up, wiped her hands, poured brown sugar water and brought it out.
Then he happily brought some snacks that he had saved to Xiao Song Le. Watching him nibbling obediently, he felt particularly satisfied.
"I came here because I wanted to ask my aunt about something."
