Chapter 89

The officials who had just finished their busy work all morning, kneading their sore necks and gathered to chat, and somebody suddenly mentioned Mei Zhuyu.

"Are you saying true?" A middle-aged young official looked at his colleague who was talking in disbelief.

The beautiful middle-aged man sitting next to him had a beautiful beard and touched his beard and smiled: "Of course it's true. If I don't believe you, you'll know if you don't believe me."

The Qingyi official looked around and lowered his voice and said, "What if it really comes?"

The middle-aged man also whispered: "He came here as soon as he came. He was just a little lonely and wouldn't hurt people. He didn't even see him scolding me and said, "What's there to be afraid of?"

The official in the green-clothed man curled his lips in his heart, so why are you doing so quietly? However, he was still very interested in what his friend said, so he stopped talking and deliberately cleared his throat and tentatively said: "When my woman was pregnant, she liked to eat a dish of ginger flower sea bass. She fryed the sea bass in the clear oil and put ginger and garlic into her belly..."

While he said his eyes, he looked around without any trace. Suddenly, a male voice came from behind and said, "Which ginger flower bass is the one you are talking about?"

The official in green was startled and took a breath with his chest in his arms. He thought to himself, "How could this plum doctor be so elusive that he suddenly appeared without any sound." After being shocked, he thought to himself, it was really as his friend said, as long as he talked about the food his wife had when she was pregnant, the plum doctor would appear."

After Mei Zhuyu asked the answer she wanted and thanked her, the official in Qingyi suddenly laughed out loud, shook his head and sighed to his friends around him: "Dr. Mei has been in the Ministry of Justice for more than a year. I have never spoken to him. I only heard that he is not easy to get close to, but now it seems that he is just an ordinary man who is afraid of it, and it is not as exaggerated as others say."

Recently, there has been a rumor in the Ministry of Justice that as long as you talk about the food your wife likes to eat when she was pregnant in public, you can see the withdrawn plum doctor suddenly appear.

Many officials who are idle and have nothing to do do don’t believe in evil, and they catch their colleagues and friends and people deliberately discuss these topics. As a result, they can see the Mei Langzhong appear silently, ask the answer silently, and retreat silently.

After a long time, this became a tacit story of the Ministry of Justice, and even an interesting little game. After a long time, many officials who originally thought that Mei Zhuyu was not easy to get along with were beginning to change their minds about him, thinking that this Mei Doctor was just taciturn and did not deliberately alienate others. In the eyes of his colleagues, Mei Doctor, who collected recipes everywhere for the sake of his pregnant wife, finally began to take the world.

This directly led to Mei Zhuyu's discovering that more colleagues came to talk to him recently, and several people would say hello when they saw him on the road, and would not pretend to be unseen like before. Not only that, but his colleagues also invited him out to drink. Even if he refused, these people were not angry, but instead smiled and told him where there were good dishes.

Mei Zhuyu didn't understand, so she finally attributed this to the reason why the weather was good recently and everyone was in a good mood.

Wu Zhen is in a good mood recently. After the panic and caution of her early pregnancy, she has returned to her former elegance. She feels that her belly is a little bigger and she cannot wear clothes and belts too tight. There is nothing inconvenient. Since ancient times, people who have seen others who are pregnant are more nervous than those who are pregnant. Wu Zhen has begun to let go, and Mei Zhuyu is still frightened when she looks at her belly every day.

In addition to staring at Wu Zhen's belly seriously, Mei Zhuyu also worried about Wu Zhen's three meals a day. Wu Zhen's appetite has been bad since he became pregnant and has eaten much less than before. Since that time, Mei Zhuyu has been bringing all kinds of food to his house.

By the way, Wu Zhen gritted his teeth and ate Wang Er pickles for two consecutive days. On the third day, he couldn't help but say to his husband: "I don't want to eat this pickles anymore."

Mei Zhuyu: "What's wrong? Today's pickles taste bad?"

Wu Zhen told him seriously: "The taste of pregnant women is not constant, they will not like to eat anything in two days."

So that's it. Mei Zhuyu believed her without hesitation, so she looked for something pregnant women might like to eat in different ways. Although he didn't know what Wu Zhen wanted to eat, there were always some Wu Zhen who would like to bring back so many things.

Sometimes I bring home the ingredients, sometimes the dishes I have prepared in restaurants, and sometimes the fruit snacks.

When Wu Zhen comes back every day, the first thing he says is to ask the husband if he has come back. If the servants say he has come back, the next thing she will ask the husband what he brought back today.

"Madam, what I brought back today are two big turtles!"

"Madam, today my husband brought back the vinegar-filled fish intestines made in Li's restaurant."

"Madam, my husband brought back a large basket of autumn pears today, which are only the size of a child's fist. The servants have never seen such a small autumn pear. My husband said he wanted to stew sugar water to drink."

It would be fine. One day Wu Zhen came back, and the servant guarding the gate told her, "Madam, the husband brought back a blind bear today!"

Wu Zhen: "...what blind bear is blind?"

She went to the kitchen curiously and saw a bear lying on the chopping board that she had temporarily laid out. Several cooks in the kitchen were watching and wondering what to do.

Seeing the fresh wound on the bear, Wu Zhen thought to himself, could it be that Langjun went to hunt on the mountain himself? As a result, after returning to the room, he saw Mei Zhuyu taking a bath and changing his clothes. Wu Zhen understood that he was indeed hunting, but there were no bears on the hills in Chang'an City. How could he have time to look for bears on the mountain outside the city?

She touched her chin and thought, Mei Zhuyu came over and said to her, "I brought the bear back. I heard that eating steamed bear bile with chrysanthemum is good for pregnant women, and fresh bear bile is the best."

Wu Zhen: "...haha, is that right?" Thinking of how bitter the bear gall was, Wu Zhen cursed in his heart. I wonder which troublesome person told Lang Jun about this bad recipe. Are the officials of the Ministry of Justice too idle?

Even though Wu Zhen didn't want to eat this, thinking of the exaggerated behavior of Lang Jun secretly going to hunt the bear, Wu Zhen still did not refuse his kindness. He pretended to be generous and simply ate the bear gall. Of course, he had to eat it together. After she had finished the bitter thing, she asked Lang Jun to taste the undissolvable bitterness.

The elm locust leaves fell on the street, and were rolled up by horse hooves and flew over the high walls on both sides. In summer, Chang'an, which is covered with thick shade, gradually covered with red and yellow, and large red leaves can be seen on the mountains outside the city. It was the time when the autumn was clear and the weather was clear. Whether it was a high-ranking family or a commoner in Chang'an City, they all liked to go out for autumn, especially those young children of high-ranking officials and nobles, who had already been looking forward to autumn hunting before the autumn leaves were yellow.

Zhao Langjun and his group came to Wu Zhen to talk about autumn hunting several times. After Wu Zhen set the time, they happily went back to prepare. A group of young men laughed and joking, and some people shouted that they would definitely take a few more preys this year to wash back and wash away the humiliation of last year.

Wu Zhen called Zhao Songyan and Zhao Langjun and asked him, "Why haven't you seen that guy Mei Si go out recently? He is still stuck at home painting his paintings?"

Since Wu Zhen and Cui Jiu got married one after another, the group of people were led by Mei Si and Zhao Songyan. However, since Wu Zhen returned to Chang'an, she had not seen Mei Si come out to play, and only Zhao Songyan and others came here several times.

Zhao Songyan looked indifferent, "He, I didn't see anyone, and I don't know what's going on. We have called him several times recently. He doesn't come out to play and stays at home. You don't have to think about it. You must be painting, otherwise what else can you do. Sister Zhen, please take care of him too, don't draw crazy, we can't control him."

Zhao Songyan is a big-hearted person, not as careful as Cui Jiu, and Wu Zhen didn't expect him to know what Mei Si was doing, so he just made time to go to Mei Si's house in person and informed him about going to Qiu Hunting with everyone in a few days.

Seeing Mei Si, Wu Zhen looked at him up and down and said, "Why did you look like your body is hollowed out? Where have you been working hard recently?"

Unexpectedly, when Mei Si saw her, his eyes turned red, he lowered his head and said, "Sister Zhen, I'm sorry for you."

Wu Zhen was confused by his actions. What kind of thing is wrong to her?

"You are sorry for me, come and listen." Wu Zhen poured himself a glass of water, preparing to listen to the young man's inner suffering.

Mei Si didn't say anything for a long time, just sat down with an unspeakable expression. When she met her gaze, she felt even more guilty and dejected.

"Say." Wu Zhen threw down a word in a deep voice.

Mei Si was too tired of her when she was a child. When she heard her long-lost tone, she immediately didn't dare to twist and said in a muffled voice: "I seem to fall in love with someone, but that person is someone that Sister Zhen hates."

Who am I hate? Wu Zhen didn't react for a moment, but soon she remembered something and asked tentatively: "Liu Taizhen of the Liu family?" Didn't the little men and women under her hands think that she and Liu Taizhen are kings and kings? Liu Taizhen was too lazy to explain. Wu Zhen explained that no one believed her and gave up, so she misunderstood until now.

Mei Si nodded in shame.

Although Wu Zhen joked about Liu Taizhen before, he actually didn't think anything would happen between the two of them. She felt it was amazing about Mei Si's words and couldn't help asking: "How come you think you like her? Have you seen her again later?"

Mei Si shook her head: "No, but I don't know why I have always dreamed recently, dreaming..."

His face turned red, "I dreamed of her bathing in the water. I dreamed of this kind of scene, it must be because of her, to her..."

Mei Si couldn't continue to say that he was a silly maniac who didn't love beauty and ghosts. It was the first time he had such a dream since he was a child. He was so ashamed. In addition, the dreamer was not in the way of dealing with the boss, so he felt that he had betrayed the organization and was depressed for a long time.

Poor Mei Si didn't know that the scene he dreamed of was not because of some thoughts in his heart, but because he had seen it with his own eyes, but later the memory was eliminated. However, for some reason, he vaguely remembered some scenes, and thus had this misunderstanding.

Wu Zhen didn't know the inside story and patted Mei Si on the shoulder, "It's nothing, Sister Zhen doesn't care about that little grudge, just like you."
