Chapter 423: Even if you rent a house, you can get together

When lunch was served, Mrs. Meng didn't even want to eat the food, so she couldn't wait to taste Bai Ruozhu's pastries.

Meng Hanhong, who was unusually staying to have lunch with her, laughed at her, "Grandma is so old, but she is still so greedy."

Mrs. Meng rolled her eyes at him, "What do you know, kid? Food is the most important thing for the people!"

Meng Hanhong looked unhappy, "Grandma, I am no longer a child."

Usually those who say this kind of thing are still childish, Bai Ruozhu secretly cursed, but she couldn't help but praise the old lady. This sentence "food is the most important thing for the people" really won her heart! It can be seen that Mrs. Meng is a foodie, and Bai Ruozhu is also a foodie. When a foodie meets a foodie, her mouth will definitely water.

No one could really control the old lady, so she took a piece of pastry made by Bai Ruozhu and tasted it. The green plum blossom pastry entered her mouth, but she didn't say anything for a while, and then she frowned slightly.

Bai Ruozhu couldn't help but raise her eyebrows. Didn't something violate her taboo? She remembered asking Nanny Lu if the old lady had any taboos. Nanny Lu smiled and said, "The old lady has a good appetite and there are no taboos."

Finally, Mrs. Meng put down her chopsticks, looked at Bai Ruozhu and asked, "Why can't I taste what this is?"

Bai Ruozhu breathed a sigh of relief. It's not that the old lady didn't like it, she was just guessing.

"Let me have a taste!" Meng Hanhong also picked up a small amount of green plum blossoms and put them into his mouth, but he couldn't taste anything like he was swallowing jujubes.

"Hey, it's not too sweet, but it's very refreshing." Meng Hanhong couldn't help but said. He usually doesn't like to eat snacks because it's too sweet. He thinks it's something only women like to eat. Today's snack It actually gave him a different idea.

Old Mrs. Meng stared at him with interest and asked, "Then did you taste anything?"

Meng Hanhong's face turned slightly pink, "Grandma can't taste it, so it's normal that I can't taste it."

He sat next to Old Mrs. Meng. After hearing this, Old Mrs. Meng smiled and hit him, saying, "You are the only one who likes to use strong words to make excuses."

Everyone in the room laughed. Everyone could tell that the old lady was in a good mood today. The jokes between the grandfather and grandson were also very fun, and everyone felt better.

After laughing, the old lady looked at Bai Ruozhu and said, "You better tell me, I can't guess."

"It contains bitter melon and honeysuckle, which can not only remove inflammation, but also reduce inflammation and reduce swelling." Bai Ruozhu said.

"Bitter melon? Isn't that very bitter?" the old lady asked in surprise.

Bai Ruozhu said with a smile: "So you have to master the proportions. This cake is very good for the old lady's current situation and is easy to digest. You can eat more, but snacks are not rice, so you can't delay your meal."

Mrs. Meng hummed, picked up another piece of pastry and ate it, and then tasted another snack. She also praised Bai Ruozhu for her ingenuity and her ability to make medicinal meals. She was really a clever girl.

Next to her, Nanny Lu winked at the old lady, and then the old lady remembered that Bai Ruozhu already had children, and she was still a little girl. However, she did not mention her husband's surname. When Meng Liangsheng introduced her before, she also called her Miss Bai. .

Seeing that the old lady was suspicious, Bai Ruozhu told her openly that she was looking for a son-in-law, but her husband had an accident and his life or death was uncertain. She said it didn't matter, but the old lady's eyes turned red when she heard it, and she sympathized with her so much that it made Bai Ruozhu feel a little embarrassed.

"You girl have a hard life. Alas, I say you are so suitable for me, so don't leave. Just ask your family to move to Beiyu City. I will arrange a place for you!" the old lady said boldly. .

Bai Ruozhu saw that the old lady was straight-tempered and spoke much more casually. She smiled bitterly and said, "You can't trouble the old lady, otherwise I'll pretend to be pitiful to gain sympathy? You see, I still have some guidance from the gods. I don't know how envious others are." .”

Meng Hanhong on the side was looking at Bai Ruozhu strangely. He felt that a woman in Bai Ruozhu's situation, whether her husband had been killed or had run away and could not come back, shouldn't she be in tears all day long? Why did she look so leisurely and contented, so completely different from the women he had seen before.

Let's just talk about the maid Luluo in his mother's yard. Just because the lady didn't arrange for her to come into the house to serve, she often cried secretly, always looking sad and miserable.

How big of a deal was that? Bai Ruozhu was a big deal, so Meng Hanhong finally figured it out: Well, this woman must like to force herself to smile in front of others.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sympathize a little more with Bai Ruozhu.

"If you treat me, I should pay you the consultation fee. I won't pay you the consultation fee. How about I arrange a place for you?" The old lady asked Bai Ruozhu with her eyes wide open.

After hearing this, Bai Ruozhu said hurriedly: "My second brother and I have already decided on a place to live. It's really not a good idea to trouble the old lady."

"Where did you see the house?" the old lady asked reluctantly.

Bai Ruozhu hurriedly told about the house near Beiyu Academy. Anyway, they were going to negotiate the price with each other tomorrow. Who knew that just after she finished speaking, the old lady and Meng Hanhong both laughed.

"Silly girl, that house is mine." The old lady said with a smile, "I originally bought that house to give to Brother Hong to go to the official school to study, but the boy failed to live up to expectations and failed to pass the exam to become a scholar. I don’t need to go to the palace, and I won’t use it for the time being, so I asked the steward to rent it out.”

Meng Hanhong's originally smiling face fell instantly, and he said in a very shameless manner: "Grandma, I performed abnormally. I will definitely not do it next time, and I'm still young."

The old lady ignored him and continued to say to Bai Ruozhu: "I know that place and I will discuss the price with the family tomorrow. I didn't expect it to be you. Let's stop talking. Grandma will lend you that house to live in for as long as you want." OK!"

Bai Ruozhu was dumbfounded when she heard this. She was too embarrassed to take advantage of Meng's house, so she used this house as a shield. She didn't expect that she would bump into the real owner.

Now, if she refuses, she will make Mrs. Meng unhappy. In the end, Bai Ruozhu had no choice but to agree with a blushing face, but she emphasized: "How can I stay here forever? I have to wait for a year and a half." , I also want to buy a house."

The old lady waved her hand and said: "Don't be polite to me. I see that your second brother is a talented person. If you don't guarantee it, you will be able to go to Beijing in a few years. Don't you think it's troublesome to go back and forth to buy things? You should clean the house for me when you move in." Now, I can save my worries."

After hearing what the old lady said, Bai Ruozhu could only thank her again, thinking that she would repay her kindness if she had the chance.

When Bai Ruozhu left Youranju and met up with his second brother, he told the story of how the old lady borrowed the house. Bai Zepei also felt a little dumbfounded. After a while, he said, "It's okay. Don't worry. There's nothing wrong with my second brother."
