Feng Lingmei finally breathed a long sigh of relief.
She regretted that she had scolded her brother before asking clearly.
She hesitated for a moment and then asked: "Did Lanting be too frightened last night, which made him feel uncomfortable?
Although my brother was also out of righteous indignation, his original intention was Okay, but it’s not appropriate to hit someone in front of him like that.
I’m afraid he was too reckless and might have frightened Lan Ting.”
Mrs.
Zhou shook her head: "Miss Feng, don't you know yet?"
She glanced in the direction of Meng Lanting's bedroom and lowered her voice: "Mr.
Feng told Lanting last night that your father has received the news that her brother has gone."
Feng Lingmei was startled.
"When I found her last night, she was sitting on the roadside, crying like a tearful person.
When she came back, she told me not to worry about her and said she was fine.
This morning, she had a fever again.
I called the doctor over.
I gave her an injection and then fell asleep."
"Pitiful" Mrs.
Zhou sighed.
Only then did Feng Lingmei fully understand the whole story.
Unexpectedly, it was his brother who caused it again.
He frowned slightly.
Mrs.
Zhou seemed to be aware of her displeasure.
"Miss Feng, don't blame Mr.
Feng.
He must have no intention.
Besides, this kind of thing will happen sooner or later."
Mrs.
Zhou shook her head.
Feng Lingmei was silent for a moment, expressed her gratitude to Mrs.
Zhou for taking care of Lan Ting, and stood up to leave.
Mrs.
Zhou sent her out of the alley, and as she walked, she couldn't help but sigh: "I originally expected to find my brother, who would be considered a close relative in the world, but I didn't expect it to be like this.
Lanting will be so pitiful from now on."
"Does Madam know her future plans?"
Feng Lingmei asked.
Mrs.
Zhou said: "I hope she can continue to be here.
I treat her as my daughter.
But based on my understanding of Lanting, I'm afraid she won't stay here anymore.
Let's go back to her hometown.
Although there are still a few acres of land at home, it's not There is no clan member, but we are separated after all.
I guess that after some time, she will consider studying abroad.
Our Lao Zhou has always felt that she should go to school, and it just so happens that summer vacation is coming.
Take the Tsinghua University Study Abroad Qualification Examination.”
She sighed again.

"It's a good idea to go out to study first and take some time to relax, so you don't have to think about these sad things at home all day long."
Feng Lingmei's car stopped at the alley.
When it arrived, she asked her to stay, then got in the car and went to the company.
On this day, she was busy until nearly eight o'clock in the evening before returning home.
"Miss Eight is back" The concierge Lao Zhang hurriedly opened the door for her.
"Ninth Young Master is also at home.
He came back at around five o'clock today and hasn't gone out since."
Feng Lingmei glanced at the car parked in the parking space and walked in.
"Miss Eighth is back"
Feng's mother was very happy and hurriedly came to pick her up.
She shouted to a maid behind her: "Go and call the young master down quickly.
He said that Miss Eight is back and you can have dinner."
Feng Lingmei doesn't like to eat out except for socializing.
Usually, as long as she doesn't call to give instructions, Feng's mother will prepare meals for her no matter how late she returns.
"Eighth Miss, it's rare for the young master to come back early today, and he even said he would wait for you to eat together."
"I see him becoming more and more sensible."
When Feng's mother mentioned her young master, a smile appeared on her face.
Feng Lingmei went upstairs to change her clothes and came down to the restaurant.
When she saw her brother sitting there, she called her "Eighth Sister".
Her attitude was much better than when she went to the headquarters to find him in the morning.
Feng Lingmei nodded lightly, sat down at her usual seat, and started eating.
"Eighth sister, I'll peel the shrimp for you, but don't move, so as not to dirty your hands."
Feng Kezhi moved to the seat next to her, peeled the shrimps for her, dipped them in vinegar thoughtfully, and put them on the plate in front of her.
"Why are you so kind?
I don't know how to peel it off myself."
Feng Lingmei ignored her.
"I didn't sleep well last night, so my attitude was not very good this morning.
Isn't this an apology to Eighth Sister?"
His tone sounded quite sincere.
Feng Lingmei snorted and picked up the shrimp.
"Eighth sister, did you go out except for the company today?"
"Went to Zhou's house," Feng Lingmei said lightly.
Feng Kezhi frowned and stopped talking.
Feng Lingmei glanced at him and told Feng's mother to take everyone out and not stay nearby.
Then she slapped the chopsticks on the table with a "pop".
"Brother Lan Ting is gone.
At first I said I would tell her based on the situation, but you wouldn't let me say it if you jumped out.
Now you just say it yourself.
Is there anyone like you who talks nonsense regardless of the occasion?"
"Do you know how sad Lanting was when he went back last night?"
Feng Kezhi asked carefully: "How is she doing today?"
"What do you think?
When I came over in the morning, Mrs.
Zhou said she had a fever again.
The doctor gave her an injection before she fell asleep."

Feng Lingmei hated that iron could not become steel, and almost poked Feng Kezhi's forehead with her finger.
"Mrs.
Zhou said that now that Lanting knows that his brother is gone, he may plan to study abroad.
When he is gone, let me see where you can find a place to cry."
Feng Kezhi was stunned for a moment, wiped his hands with a napkin, and stood up.
"I'll tell you where to go.
Don't go to Zhou's house now so as not to cause more trouble and annoy people."
Feng Kezhi turned his head in dismay: "Did I say I was going?
I'm going to sleep, okay?"
Feng Lingmei scolded: "Just tell me, you will get rid of your bad temper right away.
No one can stand living with you, so I feel that I shouldn't help you.
Let Songzhou chase him to Lanting, everyone will be fine."
Feng Kezhi's face suddenly darkened, and he walked away.
"Stop" Feng Lingmei shouted.
Feng Kezhi seemed not to have heard anything, and had already reached the door of the restaurant.
Feng Lingmei said to his back: "Even if she really plans to study abroad, she won't be so soon.
Just stay here and don't do anything in the limelight of the newspapers.
I will find a way to suppress it.
I will go there often recently.
Looking at Lanting, I’d like to say a nice word for you.”
"Isn't dad celebrating his birthday next month?
It's just a few days away.
If I invite her to Nanjing earlier, she won't be able to refuse.
When the time comes, you can seize the opportunity and let me keep her as the daughter-in-law of our Feng family."
Feng Kezhi seemed to be unable to believe his ears.
He stopped, slowly turned back and looked at Feng Lingmei: "Sister Ba Ba" Feng Lingmei snorted: "I'm afraid that the ancestors of our old Feng family will be so angry that your graves will smoke, so I'm helping you for the last time."
"Let me tell you, if you mess it up for me again this time, don't blame me.
Even the King of Heaven can't help you."
Feng Kezhi was silent for a moment and said, "I remember, Eighth Sister."
Meng Lanting had been ill for a few days, and the final exams were over, and the school had begun its nearly two-month summer vacation.
During the past few days when she was ill, Xi Songzhou came here almost every day, sometimes sitting for a while, sometimes staying for dinner before leaving.
Meng Lanting spent most of the time sleeping in the house, and the two of them didn't meet much.
By the day of the holiday, Meng Lanting's illness was almost cured.
Xi Songzhou came to Zhou's house in the evening as usual, bringing some fresh fruits.
He was very happy to see Meng Lanting getting up, and stayed to have dinner and sit in the living room to drink tea.
Because it was the end of the semester, Meng Lanting was sick and asked for leave again, and the department was short of staff.
Professor Zhou was very busy these days, and finally had some free time.
He looked at Meng Lanting and said, "Lanting, your uncle is also very concerned about your brother's matter."
Sad.
But as the saying goes, you have to be more open-minded, you know, you must pay attention to your health. " Xi Songzhou looked at Meng Lanting.
After only a few days of illness, her face lost weight, her chin was pointed, and her face was still a little pale.
Fortunately, he still seems to be in good spirits.
She said: "I know, thank you uncle."
"What are your plans in the future?"
When Meng Lanting was silent, Professor Zhou added: "My suggestion is that you rest for a few more days and recommend you to take the Tsinghua University Examination for Studying in the United States.

If you are qualified, then go to school.
Although it is hard, it should be suitable for you."
Xi Songzhou looked at her with expectation in his eyes.
Meng Lanting slowly raised his eyes.
"Thank you uncle for the recommendation.
I'm not afraid of hardship.
I will give it a try."
Professor Zhou smiled and said: "Okay, okay.
Then don't think too much and just review and prepare for the exam in peace."
Meng Lanting nodded in agreement.
Xi Songzhou looked very happy.
"Lanting, if you review carefully, you will definitely succeed."
Meng Lanting smiled and thanked him.
That night, Meng Lanting once again had difficulty falling asleep.
After learning the news that her brother was gone, she had been thinking all the time in the past few days that if she could go to the north, even to see the land where her brother had finally fought, it would be great.
It's a souvenir.
It is a pity that in that vigorous battle that year, although the defenders resisted heroically, they failed to win in the end due to backward equipment and the enemy's sophisticated weapons.
The place is now occupied by the enemy, the land has fallen, and the date of return is far away.
She couldn't even realize such a wish.
She huddled in the corner of the quilt and cried silently for a moment, then wiped away her tears and got up from the bed.
Professor Zhou's suggestion may be her next best choice.
She will give it her all.
She turned on the desk lamp, sat down at the desk, opened the book, forced herself to get rid of all the distracting thoughts in her mind, and started reading quietly.
It's late at night.
Neighbor Wang's mahjong table also fell apart.
Several people complained about their luck tonight and came out of the Wang family's door.
Mixed with the sound of talking and coughing, their footsteps kicked and they disappeared into the depths of the alley in the dark night.
Feng Kezhi held a cigarette in his mouth and stood in the shadow of the corner in Zhou's alley where he had met her before.
He stood for a long time looking at the lighted window not far away.
It's almost twelve o'clock.
She hasn't slept yet.
He lowered his head, took out his pocket watch again, and looked at the time.
Finally, the graceful figure passed by behind the curtain of the window, casting a vague outline.
The lights went out.
There is silence in my ears.
The moon is as cold as water.
Feng Kezhi continued to stand silently in the dark corner for a moment, threw away the cigarette butt, stamped it out, turned around, put his hands in his pockets, and slowly walked out of the alley.
Two days later, Feng Lingmei came to Zhou's house again with the blood swallow she had cooked.
Meng Lanting was reading in the room and walked out.
Feng Lingmei said that she was in better spirits than in the first few days, but her complexion was still not good.
"Aunt Zhou, Lanting has always had to be taken care of by you.
It's not a good thing, I just made it myself, and my craftsmanship is even worse.
Don't dislike it."
It’s hard to refuse such hospitality.
Meng Lanting thanked him and ate the bird's nest one bite at a time under Feng Lingmei's smiling gaze.

"Aunt Zhou, school is out for summer vacation.
I'm going back to Nanjing in two days.
I want to pick up Lan Ting and stay with me for a few days.
I don't know if Aunt will let her go."
Feng Lingmei asked with a smile.
Mrs.
Zhou naturally said yes and looked at Meng Lanting again.
Meng Lanting was about to refuse on the grounds that he was reviewing for the exam, but Feng Lingmei had already continued: "Lanting, I know you are reviewing.
It's like this.
In a few days, it will be my father's birthday.
My father has always missed you very much.
I miss you."
I’ll take this opportunity to pick you up and stay there for a few days, just to relax.”
"If you go over there, you can review."
"What do you think?"
No matter how busy Meng Lanting was on Mr.
Feng’s birthday, or if he subconsciously didn’t want to go, how could he avoid it?
Seeing Feng Lingmei looking at him with a smile, Meng Lanting swallowed back what he originally wanted to say and nodded.
"Okay, I also want to say thank you to Uncle Feng."
"That's great.
It's settled.
When the time comes, I'll pick you up and we'll go up together."
Feng Lingmei said with a smile. gd1806102:
