After Mrs. Li's words, Mengying Lin's face was a little tense after all. She smiled awkwardly. "Thank you for your kindness, but my parents had just passed away. I have to be filial for three years. I can't talk about marriage these years."

"Ah, this way, it's OK. Let's wait until your filial piety expires." Mrs. Li said goodbye after another polite remark.

Mengying Lin thanked them again before sending them away.

Close the gate, Mengying Lin couldn't help sighing. Mrs. Li was more enthusiastic.

"Miss, this Ciba..." Xiao Liu hesitated to look at her.

Mengying Lin smiled, "You eat it."

With permission, Xiao Liu immediately happily opened the package and took a piece of Ciba to eat. She wanted to ask Yisheng Lin to eat together, but she saw Yisheng Lin standing beside her with a face full of unhappiness.

"Sister, if you don't have that person, you can marry a good family." Yisheng Lin was sad for her.

Mengying Lin raised her hand, pointed her index finger at the center of his eyebrow and joked: "Yisheng Lin, you are only six years old, how can you be like a little adult. Besides, I'm not going to marry. When I raise you to eighteen and you're an adult, I'll become a nun. "

Yisheng Lin raised his head in shock. He didn't see her joke. He grabbed Mengying Lin's hand. "How can you be a nun, sister? You must marry someone. Someone will marry you."

"Yisheng Lin, why do women have to marry?" Mengying Lin was confused when she saw that he was in such a hurry.

Yisheng Lin's face turned white, and suddenly he said sadly, "My mother, just because she can't get married, has been bullied by the villagers. I don't want my sister to be bullied..."

Mengying Lin sighed and held him in her arms again. She patted him on the back and said, "Those things are gone. Besides, your mother was bullied, not because she didn't marry, your mother was bullied, not her fault, but the fault of those who bullied your mother. We can't punish ourselves with other people's mistakes. It's not fair to us, you know?"

Yisheng Lin didn't speak. He seemed to understand, but he believed that everything Mengying Lin said was right.

Xiao Liu ate Ciba, looked at the two people, and suddenly exclaimed, "Isn't Yisheng Lin's mother your mother? You... Aren't you a brother-in-law? "

Her exaggerated expression made Mengying Lin laugh. "Yes, Yishen Ling is not my brother, but I will treat him like my brother, and you are the same. If you like, you can call me sister, and I will treat you like my sister."

"Sister..." Xiao Liu's eyes suddenly burst with tears, but she held them back for a moment. She shook her head. "No, I'm a maid. I can't let Miss be my sister."

After that, Xiao Liu turned around and ran with Ciba in her arms.

Mengying Lin looked at the back of her escape and frowned unconsciously. Although Xiao Liu was not old, she felt more mature than her age. Was she really just a girl growing up in a village?

Early the next morning, the door of the courtyard was knocked again. After Xiao Liu put breakfast on the table, he went to open the door, and a tiger headed boy rushed in. The boy was no one else. He was the son of his neighbor Mrs. Li's.

As soon as Mengying Lin sat down with Yisheng Lin for dinner, the little boy ran up to Yisheng Lin and took out some sweets from his pocket and put them in front of him. "My name is tiger. Do you want to go to dragon boat race with me? If you go with me, I'll give you some sugar. "

Yisheng Lin looked at him coolly, then turned around and didn't even look at him.

Yisheng Lin's attitude made tiger feel aggrieved for a while, but he was not willing to go. Mengying Lin couldn't see it. "Yisheng Lin, let's go to see the dragon boat race. I haven't seen the dragon boat race yet. More people, more company .Do you want to go, Xiao Liu?"

Xiao Liu nodded at once, "I want to go!"

Tiger also stared at Mengying Lin, with a more honest smile than his mother.

Yisheng Lin nodded.

Mengying Lin laughed and greeted tiger to go out with her three children after having breakfast together. At the moment of going out, she suddenly returned to her senses. She was only 16-17 years old here, and Xiao Liu was 13-14 years old. Tiger and Yisheng Lin were both over 6 years old. When they went out, they looked like a group of disobedient bear children.

There was a big river named Li He in Fengqi city. It was said that in the early days of the founding of the Nanyue State, the old emperor once saw the woman he loved most in his life in the riverboat. It was a pity that the woman died just after she got the saint's favor. The Old Emperor was heartbroken and often came to the riverside to mourn. However, the beautiful people had died and could not leave, so the old emperor named the river Li He.

There were many teahouses by the river. Mengying Lin and her three children enter one of the teahouses. She chose the second floor near the window. From here, they could see the boat racing in the river.

The storyteller in the teahouse just talked about the story of the old emperor. When Mengying Lin heard it, she couldn't help but smile. When she entered the palace, it was like the sea. So, if a woman of civilian status entered the palace, could she live happily? It was just a surface view.

"Shopkeeper, there is one table by the window on the second floor." A crass voice sounded at the door of the teahouse.

The shopkeeper who was playing with the abacus looked up and saw two royal guards. He immediately laughed, "En, my dear guests, I feel sorry to you. The window position is gone. If you don't mind, can you make do with it in the hall?"

"We add price!" The man who began to talk opened his mouth again, making the shopkeeper look embarrassed.

The shopkeeper was thinking about how to appease the two guests, and another young man said, "No, I have friends here. Let's go and make a table." With that, he went straight to the second floor.

Mengying Lin held the tea cup and watched Zhang Hai and Ding Lei came downstairs. She stood up and blessed her body.

"Miss Lin, you also come to see the boat race?" The first to speak was not Zhang Hai, but Ding Lei, who was passionate.

Mengying Lin nodded, but some people appreciated Ding Lei's cheerfulness.

"Miss Lin, the table by the window is gone. If you can, can you let us sit with you?" Zhang Hai said boxing.

Mr. Zhang was my benefactor. How can you say disturb? As long as you don't mind, you can sit together with us."

Mengying Lin made a gesture of asking for please. Zhang Hai sat down gracefully opposite her and said, "thank you, Miss Lin."

"By the way, how could you have the grace to come to see the boat race?" Mengying Lin poured tea for Zhang Hai himself and asked casually.

Since seeing Mengying Lin, the smile on Zhang Hai's face hadn't left. "To be honest, there were also teams from my prime minister's office in the boat team of today's competition, so it is natural to come and have a look."
