"Thank you, old man." Meng Qingyu cupped his hands.

"No need." The old man Li waved his hand, and then looked at the old man and the clan elder, "I'll come as soon as I go."

"Don't worry, we old guys can't run away again." Everyone laughed.

Old man Li replied with a wrinkled face, leading the way.

Meng Qingyu didn't get into the car either, but followed behind with a mule cart.

The old man can walk, and it is really inappropriate for him to get in the car when he is young and strong.

The two were silent all the way, and they arrived at the back of the village not long after.

The old man pointed to a spacious house at the end of the village and reminded, "That's Gulan's residence."

While speaking, he stepped forward and continued to walk towards the gate of the house.

I have already brought people here, so I simply sent the Buddha to the west, let's send people in, "Koukou" knocked on the door.

Different from the open doors of most houses in their village, the door of Gulan's house is closed all the year round. The main reason is that he is afraid that Dahei will run out. Of course, there are also reasons why Gulan doesn't like to socialize.

"Who is it?" Butler Jin's voice came from inside the door.

"It's me!" Old Man Li shouted.

Then the door was opened with a rustling sound.

"Mr. Li" Butler Jin shouted.

Old man Li nodded. He was too lazy to correct the title of old man. Anyway, he was correcting Butler Jin.

"Tell your son, there is a man named Meng..." At this point, Old Man Li looked at the person behind him with an embarrassed smile. He has a bad memory because he is old, so he forgot.

Seeing this, Meng Qingyu hurried forward, "Meng Qingyu" reminded.

"Yes... a Meng Scholar came to him and said that he came for the position of Master."

Hearing that it was a scholar surnamed Meng, Steward Jin raised his spirits and hurriedly invited him into the hospital.

He has been paying attention these few days. The master told him a few days ago that if a scholar named Meng Qingyu came to look for him, he would call him immediately.

"It turned out to be Mr. Meng. The little one has been waiting for you for a long time. Please come inside."

Old man Li originally wanted to send people back to chat with the old guys, and immediately waved his hands, "I won't go, I will leave this scholar to you, and there are still a bunch of old guys waiting for me over there."

After finishing speaking, he nodded to the scholar, and old man Li left leisurely.

At the same time, Meng Mishi and the children in the carriage also came down, and while they were talking, they tied the donkey cart under the only one among the many small trees outside the courtyard.

Meng Qingyu bowed again to the old man Li's back, then brought his wife and children to the living room led by Butler Jin.

It was a room that was tidied up from the side room to entertain guests. Later, when Gu Lan wanted to formally tidy it up as a living room, he couldn't just go to the hall of the main room as soon as people came.

It was fine when she was there, but when she wasn't there Gulan still didn't like people coming into her house, even if it was a living room.

As soon as Meng Qingyu sat down with his wife and children, tea and pastries were served not long after.

Walking all the way into Mr. Gu's house, the first feeling is that it is very big. Although it is not as good as a real rich family, it can be seen that it is indeed better than many people in the city.

Even the roads are paved with bluestone slabs. You must know that many people can be regarded as good people if they can pave a gravel road.

After the other side settled the people, Butler Jin quickly came to the window of the master's bedroom and shouted.

Most of the time, Butler Jin prefers to report things from outside the window. During the day, the master's window is usually half open.

"What's the matter?" Stopping the pen in his hand, Gu Lan glanced at Butler Jin who was facing away from the window.

The alembic pot she drew in her hand took at most one cup of tea to complete, so she was not happy about Butler Jin's interruption, and her voice could not help but feel a little cold.

Butler Jin, who is good at observing words and expressions, naturally heard it, and said cautiously: "My lord, the Mr. Meng you ordered to pay attention to is here."

"Meng Qingyu?" After putting away the pen, Gu Lan looked out the window.

It's finally here, did she think she won't come after so long?

"Yes"

"Understood, you go to entertain first, and I will arrive later."

Hearing this, Butler Jin quickly retreated, because he disturbed the master just now.

After sorting out the things on the desk, putting everything that should not appear in the space, he turned and left the bedroom.

"Young Master Meng, welcome."

With a deep voice, a thin young man walked in, with a decent smile on his face, neither too warm nor neglected.

Hearing that Meng Qingyu stood up, Meng Mishi beside him also pulled the child to stand up together.

"Gu Gongzi" Meng Qingyu offered his hand.

"Zit, sit, sit" said three words in a row, Gu Lan smiled, then looked at the older and younger beside him, and said clearly: "This is my sister-in-law and my nephew and niece."

"It's the wife and the children."

"Hello Madam Sister-in-law," said Gulan and saluted.

Meng Mishi also quickly returned the gift, and smiled shyly.

She didn't expect that Mr. Gu, whom her husband was talking about, would be such a young man, and he looked very refined and reasonable, making it easy for people to have a good impression of him.

"Housekeeper, bring some fruit and candies that the children like to eat." Gulan looked at the pastries on the tea table and glanced at Butler Jin.

"Yes" Butler Jin hurriedly withdrew.

"Don't bother, the hospitality is already very good." Meng Qingyu said hurriedly.

The pastries on the coffee table were exquisite and delicious, even if they hadn't changed their homes, they were reluctant to buy them.

Gu Lan: "No trouble, Mr. Meng will sit, and Mrs. Sister-in-law will also sit."

"Mr. Meng came here this time to understand?"

"I have this idea, so come and have a look."

Speaking of this, Meng Qingyu was a little embarrassed, after all, many days had passed in between, and I don't know if Mr. Gu has invited another wife, and now he listens to Mr. Gu's words and he feels relieved.

"It's time to come and take a look." Gu Lan nodded.

Just as he was talking, Butler Jin came in with a plate of fruit and a plate of candy with different flavors.

These candies are fruit-flavored candies made by Wu's and Li's after several months of research and experiments provided by Gulan. The mixed fruit flavor is more popular than toffee in the hot season.

Seeing this, Gu Lan directly grabbed a handful and put it in front of them, "Eat it."

The two children were well educated. Although they wanted to eat the fruit and candies in front of them, they still looked at their parents.

"Thank you, Uncle Gu." Meng Qingyu said sadly, the two children have suffered with him these days, and they didn't even eat a piece of candy.

"Thank you uncle." Meng Xiaoyan took his sister to thank him.

"No, no, good boy, how old are you this year?"

"Eight years old" looked at his father Meng Xiaoyan and said.

"Eight years old will soon become a big child." He said enviously and looked at Meng Qingyu, "Mr. Meng is very lucky to have such a good pair of children, and the days of enjoying the blessings will come later."

"Young Master Gu has won the prize." That's what he said, but Meng Qingyu could clearly see that he was trying his best to suppress the smile on the corner of his mouth, and even Meng Mishi who was beside him relaxed a lot.

Sure enough, no matter how good an adult is, it is better to praise a child. Children will always be the weakness of their parents, Gu Lan thought to himself.

After chatting for a while, watching the children eat a few pieces of fruit candy, Gu Lan said: "It's a coincidence that Mr. Meng came here. It happened that the school was ready yesterday, why don't I take you to see it."

"That's very good." Meng Qingyu nodded hurriedly.
