Strange Tales of the Ghosts - Chapter 572

[Chapter 572 Ghost Wife (10)]
In fact, Meng Zixuan’s chess skills are not bad, and this is what his family taught him when he was young, but he didn’t think much about winning Dong Jinling’s mentality. It seems like a lot of thought, thinking about how to move. Seeing that Meng Zixuan was so serious, Dong Jinling laughed and said: “Meng Gongzi is so focused, it seems that Jin Ling is going to lose today.”
“Not necessarily, Miss Dong is very good at chess, Meng is ashamed, if Meng was not careful. I’m afraid that Zikong would have given up the game long ago.” Meng Zixuan smiled modestly, holding Baizi in his hand, and went down to an empty space where Dong Jinling would win.
One game ended, another game, just playing chess, Dong Jinling also felt a little bored, so he deliberately talked about Meng Zixuan’s family status…
“Jin Ling heard that Meng Gongzi was also a big family in Tingzhou, I don’t know what happened, Defeated like this?”
“This…” How could Meng Zixuan say that he was lazy? But this is the truth. He spent money overnight, not to mention losing his family property, and he was deceived by a scam. Except for the old house, he owed a whole body of debt, and the servants and uncles in the family saw him like this. It was originally intended to let him leave together, but Meng Zixuan was unwilling. At that time, he was already a little remorseful, so he had to guard his own house no matter what. As for those who asked him for debts, it was intentional for Meng Zixuan to sell the house to repay the debts, but after all, it was a game, and the other party was guilty of beating up Meng Zixuan several times, but after Meng Zixuan didn’t hand it over, he didn’t ask any more questions. In addition, Meng Zixuan became a beggar, and this matter was never mentioned again. Now that Dong Jinling asked about it, Meng Zixuan had no choice but to answer in four words: “I don’t want to mention it.”
Dong Jinling was originally a scheming woman. The reason why she didn’t ask any more after hearing Meng Zixuan’s words was very simple. She knew how to act quickly. He couldn’t reach it, so he smiled slightly and replied, “If that’s the case, then we won’t mention it.”
“Yeah.” Meng Zixuan smiled at him.
Dong Jinling saw that the chess game was full, and Meng Zixuan had already fallen into defeat. In order not to embarrass Meng Zixuan, he deliberately smiled and said, “I am really happy with Meng Gongzi today, but I may not be as good as Meng Zixuan, and I spent too much money. Mind, it’s a bit of a headache.”
“Then…” Meng Zixuan deliberately let Dong Jinling win. Seeing that Dong Jinling was about to give up, he didn’t know what to say.
“I’m afraid Jin Ling won’t be able to play chess any more today. We’d better wait until the next day when Young Master Meng is in better health. Let’s play again.” Dong Jinling winked at the maid, Ping’er, and asked Ping’er to clean up the chessboard. Of course, Meng Zixuan pushed the boat along the way.
“If that’s the case, then let’s go another day.” Meng Zixuan had a smile on his face, and the smile disappeared after Dong Jinling left. Although Dong Jinling was a young lady, Meng Zixuan didn’t like Dong Jinling, and he was once a son of a wealthy family. Mencius Zixuan has seen a lot of the hypocritical faces of the young ladies. Such people only smile to themselves when they are rich and powerful. If they don’t, they must have a purpose. On the surface, he was joking, but Meng Zixuan was very clear in his heart. He sighed, sat on the bed, and began to think about it, Meng Zixuan just wanted to get some benefits from Dong Jinling and left, he didn’t think much about other things.
Dong Jinling also had the same intention. The personal maid, Ping’er, was clear. Seeing that Dong Jinling had not made progress for many days, Ping’er asked in a low voice, “Miss, why don’t you mention the mansion to Young Master Meng?”
“What do you know? If As we inquired, Young Master Meng did not sell his house because of his poor family circumstances, presumably he has his own reasons to let him cut his love, so don’t be in a hurry.” Dong Jinling took a lotus step with a smile of determination on her lips.
Three days later, Dong Jinling went out with his father, and Meng Zixuan found an opportunity where no one was watching, slipped out of Dong’s house, and walked on the street for a while. During this time in Dong’s house, he ate well and dressed well, but his pockets There was still no money in the room. After walking around for a while, Meng Zixuan felt bored and slipped out of the city to play. There was no one in the small pavilion outside the city of Tingzhou. Who knew that as soon as he closed his eyes, he fell asleep. When he woke up, the sun was setting, it was already dusk, the air was heavy, maybe he had overslept, and he had fainted. The girl entered the pavilion. The girl was wearing a moth-yellow shirt with blue silk like a waterfall. At first glance, she was a beautiful and pitiful person. Although she was not stunning, she was eye-catching. The girl sat in the pavilion and saw a young man lying down. She was afraid of disturbing the other party’s rest. Eat quietly. After eating and eating, the girl realized that something was wrong with this man, so she walked over and asked softly, “Young Master…Are you all right?”
“Water…” Meng Zixuan slept all afternoon, his mouth was very thirsty, and he had no energy. , If you want to find some water to drink, you will die of thirst.
After the girl heard what Meng Zixuan said, she hurriedly brought the water she brought to Meng Zixuan. After Meng Zixuan drank the water for a while, the girl’s water bag was empty, Meng Zixuan felt rude, smiled and said, “I’m sorry. ”
It doesn’t matter.” The girl didn’t mind, she put away the water bag and asked curiously, “Young Master, where are you from? Why are you alone in this pavilion?”
Meng Zixuan opened his eyes and glanced at the girl, then whispered. Answer: “Tingzhou people.”
“So, this place is not far from Tingzhou?” The girl was delighted.
Meng Zixuan nodded and looked at the girl: “Girl, are you going to Tingzhou City?”
“Well, something happened at home, my father asked me to go to Tingzhou City to seek refuge with my uncle.” The girl replied with a smile.
After Meng Zixuan drank the water, he seemed to feel better, sat up, and looked at the girl in front of him carefully, and found that the girl was only eighteen or nineteen years old, and her dress was not ordinary, so he asked, “I don’t know what the girl’s uncle’s surname is? Maybe I can help you find it.”
“The last name is Dong.”
Dong? Meng Zixuan wondered if it would be so coincidental. Although there are more than one family of people surnamed Dong in the city, the only one with a better net worth is the Master Dong, the father of Dong Jinling…
“Girl…”
“You call me Yun Ying will do.” The girl smiled sweetly and looked at Meng Zixuan.
The girl’s smile made Meng Zixuan feel that this woman was not ordinary. If it was a lady from a wealthy family, there would be no reason to laugh at others so easily, not to mention that this girl didn’t know herself and was willing to help herself. It seemed that she was a kind-hearted person. For some reason, Meng Zixuan had a good feeling and said with a smile: “Miss Yunying, it’s getting late, let’s get up and go back to the city. If it’s getting late, I’m afraid that you are a girl, and the road will be inconvenient.”
“Well.” He nodded and picked up the bag.
At this time, in Dong’s residence, Dong Jinling was furious about Meng Zixuan’s disappearance, when he heard a report from a servant outside the door saying that Meng Zixuan was back and brought a girl, Dong Jinling was even more angry, and snorted coldly: “Meng Zixuan When he is someone, I leave him to eat and live in the mansion, he is not satisfied, he has to bring someone.” As he said that, he walked to the outer hall. Dad’s laughter came from the hall. Dong Jinling was curious for a while, and when he looked inside, there was a girl wearing a moth yellow light shirt standing beside him. The girl looked like she had seen it before. After thinking about it for a long time, Dong Jinling Just remembered, burst into joy, and ran in.
“Sister Yunying.”
“Sister Jinling.” The girl turned around, saw Dong Jinling, went up to hold Dong Jinling’s hand, they were cousins, they hadn’t seen each other for many years, and their appearance had changed a bit, so they didn’t recognize it at a glance, but , in the end, they are still two sisters who have played together since childhood, and they are very affectionate when they meet.
“Sister Yunying, I haven’t seen you for so many years, you are even more beautiful.”
“Speaking of beauty, how can Yun Ying be as good as her elder sister, she is a beautiful beauty.” Yun Ying smiled sweetly.
Dong Jinling smiled tenderly, looked at Master Dong and complained, “Father, sister Yunying is here, why didn’t you say anything to me first? So that I can be prepared.”
“I just found out.” Master Dong laughed loudly. The arrival of Dong Yunying made the Dong family very happy. Meng Zixuan also listened to their conversation just now and realized that Dong Yunying turned out to be the daughter of Master Dong’s younger brother. Favored by the Dong family, and seeing the family reunion, Meng Zixuan stood up knowingly.
“Master Dong, Miss Dong, Meng will not interrupt your conversation. If you have nothing else to do, please leave first.”
“Meng Gongzi…” Dong Jinling only paid attention to Dong Yunying just now, only to realize that Meng Zixuan was also present. She questioned who Meng Zixuan brought back, and it was inconvenient to say anything now. She wisely guessed that the person Meng Zixuan brought back was Dong Yunying. Although she did not know how Meng Zixuan and Dong Yunying met, she was very concerned about Meng Zixuan bringing Dong Yunying here. Dong Jinling is still very grateful.
Dong Yunying laughed out loud, took Dong Jinling’s hand and said, “Sister Jinling, thanks to Mr. Meng for leading the way today, otherwise I would still be wandering around the city like a headless fly.”
“Yes, I would like to thank Mr. Meng.” Dong The master stood up and looked at Meng Zixuan with a smile. He heard from his daughter that there was a daughter’s savior living in the house, and he never had the opportunity to meet him. The first time he met today, Meng Zixuan brought the niece that Master Dong loved since childhood. Master Dong’s heart is naturally happy. “If Young Master Meng doesn’t mind, let’s have dinner together in the evening, okay?”
“Okay, uncle.” Dong Yunying clapped her hands in approval.
Dong Jinling expected that Meng Zixuan would agree, but Meng Zixuan unexpectedly refused: “Thank you, Mr. Dong, for your love. Today, Meng will not disturb the reunion of Mr. Dong’s family. Let’s go to another day.” There was a hint of disappointment on her face. Dong Yunying was a girl, of course she could see it, so she asked with a small smile, “Sister Jinling seems to be very concerned about that Meng Gongzi…”
“Nothing, don’t guess.” Dong Jinling smiled. Get up and keep your thoughts down.
