Chapter 192: Meet Her for You
Seeing Mei Cheng'an being so humble, Fan Xian couldn't mock him anymore and closed his mouth in dismay.
Not long after Mei Cheng'an and Wang Qinian had finished packing, the girls came back. The only difference from when they left was that each of them had a beautiful wreath on her head.
A group of innocent girls wearing garlands on their heads and gorgeous clothes strolled out from the woods, talking and laughing, giving people the feeling that fairies from heaven have secretly come down to earth to play.
Mei Cheng'an's eyes naturally fell on his wife at the first moment.
She was wearing a pink and red gradient dress, and her high bun was adorned with a pink and white garland dotted with green leaves, which was fresh and elegant, making her originally pretty face even more charming.
Looking at her, Mei Chengan couldn't help but laugh.
When Li Roujia saw him, she ran towards him immediately.
Mei Chengan sat quietly at the tea table and did not stand up to greet her immediately. Instead, he calmly poured her a cup of tea and then stood up, just in time to receive the bull charge from Li Roujia.
"Ouch, you're going to kill me!"
Letting go of the giggling Li Roujia, Mei Chengan flicked her forehead in annoyance, with such a weak force that it was barely noticeable.
Li Roujia hummed twice, and shook her head in front of him in a naive manner. After shaking, she deliberately pushed forward and almost hit Mei Chengan's chin.
"Brother Cheng'an, look at the wreath on my head. Isn't it beautiful?"
Mei Chengan tapped her little head with his finger and praised unhappily.
"Looks great, looks great. Why are you always pushing forward? Stand still!"
Li Roujia giggled, stood up obediently, turned around and stretched out her hand to Xiaotao who was following behind her. Xiaotao immediately handed her a wreath of the same style as the one on her head.
Li Roujia took the wreath, looked at Mei Chengan and smiled.
"I also made one for Brother Cheng'an. Come and I'll bring it to you."
As he said this, he was about to put it on Mei Chengan's head.
Mei Cheng'an's eyes jumped and he quickly leaned back to avoid it, grabbing her wrist at the same time.
"I won't wear it."
Li Roujia did not reduce her strength, she even increased her strength a bit, but unfortunately her wrist was firmly grasped by Mei Chengan and did not move at all.
Li Roujia was a little unhappy and pouted.
"Why not wear it? You just said it looks good!"
Mei Cheng'an felt a little headache. It was too abstract for a grown man to wear a wreath on his head.
"It looks good... it does look good, but that's only for you girls. It may not look good on me."
Li Roujia said in a tender voice.
"Really? I don't believe it. Try it on first and let me see."
"..."
Mei Chengan said decisively.
"Don't try. It won't look good."
Li Roujia blinked her big watery eyes, and looked at him pitifully with her little face sticking out.
"How can you know if it looks good without wearing it? Hey, Brother Cheng'an, please put it on and let me see if it looks good or not~."
Hiss~ A delicate and beautiful face, a soft and tender voice, and a pair of pitiful big eyes.
Mei Chengan thought that his wife's skill in acting like a spoiled child was even more terrifying than that of a grandmaster.
He had absolutely no power to resist, and his strong defenses melted away in an instant.
It’s not his fault that he is easily influenced, the problem is who can stand this.
Mei Cheng'an took a deep breath and secretly observed the people around him. Seeing that they were all chatting with each other and no one was paying attention to them, he felt a little relieved. He looked at Li Roujia and asked in a low voice.
"You really want to see me wear it?"
Li Roujia nodded repeatedly and kept saying "hmm".
Mei Cheng'an stared into her eyes for a few seconds, then suddenly smiled. He not only let go of her wrist, but also lowered his head and spoke softly.
"Then put it on me."
Mei Cheng'an suddenly agreed, which made Li Roujia feel helpless. After a moment's pause, his eyebrows and eyes suddenly curved into a beautiful smile.
She gently helped Mei Cheng'an put on the flower crown and considerately helped him adjust its position. Then she nodded and put her hands down in satisfaction.
Mei Cheng'an straightened up and shook his head left and right.
"How is it? Does it look good?"
Li Roujia was so focused on adjusting the position of the corolla that she hadn't taken a careful look at the whole thing. Now that she saw it, she was completely stunned.
Mei Chengan has a good-looking face to begin with, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and he is handsome and extraordinary. Now wearing a flower crown, matched with the brown suit he is wearing today, he does not appear as feminine as imagined, but instead shows agility and naturalness, and is extremely handsome. He is so handsome.
It’s a pity that Mei Chengan can’t see his own look, otherwise he would have praised himself as the Son of the Forest.
Mei Cheng'an stretched out his hand and waved it in front of his wife.
"What are you daydreaming about? Does it look good?"
Li Roujia came back to her senses, her eyes bright, and she nodded rapidly.
"It looks good! It looks really good! It's so good, Brother Cheng'an!"
Mei Cheng was happy.
"Is this true? Is it that exaggerated?"
Li Roujia said anxiously.
"Of course it's real! It's so beautiful!"
Mei Chengan smiled and nodded. "As long as you are happy, you have been running around for most of the day. You must be thirsty. Have some tea."
Li Roujia hummed twice, smiled sweetly, picked up the teacup and took a sip, but her eyes never left Mei Chengan's face. She smiled foolishly while drinking.
Mei Chengan was a little speechless, but he couldn't help but feel curious. Was it really that beautiful? As for keeping an eye on it all the time?
Li Roujia took two sips of tea and suddenly turned around and shouted to the adjacent tea table.
"Cousin, look at how good Brother Cheng'an looks wearing the wreath I made for him!"
Mei Chengan: “…”
Lin Wan'er, who was talking to Fan Xian, turned her head and looked. Fan Xian was no exception. As soon as Lin Wan'er came back, he had no intention of fishing anymore. He handed the fishing rod to Teng Zijing and went to talk to Lin Wan'er happily.
Although Mei Cheng'an couldn't help but smile bitterly and felt a little weird, he did not retreat or dodge, but showed himself calmly and generously.
Seeing Mei Chengan's look, Lin Wan'er's eyes lit up and she nodded with a smile.
Fan Xian couldn't help it.
"Pfft~ What's going on? Why are you wearing it too?"
Mei Chengan shrugged.
"My Roujia made it for me. She's so skillful, so of course I have to wear it. How is it? Not bad, right?"
When Mei Chengan disagrees with something, he starts showing off his wife.
Fan Xian rolled his eyes speechlessly, as if he didn't care about anyone else, but after taking a closer look, he still gave a thumbs up.
"Not bad, not bad, it's really good!"
Mei Cheng'an snorted complacently, his mood changed very quickly, and there was no trace of his initial reluctance.
The two sides talked for a while, and Mei Chengan suggested that they play mahjong together. Li Roujia, Fan Xian and Lin Wan'er readily agreed.
The mahjong table had been prepared long ago, and a few people moved to a place and started playing.
They were not the only one playing mahjong. There was another table where a fierce battle was going on. It was a game of mahjong between Versace, Fan Ruoruo, Wang Qinian, and Mrs. Wang.
Mei Yuxi, Ye Ling'er is acting as military advisor to Fan Ruoruo. Currently, she is the only one losing, and the two military officers behind her are scratching their heads anxiously.
Wang Ba, the little pork belly, and Teng Xiaoniu were cheering for Versace, while Mrs. Teng Zijing was watching the game behind Mrs. Wang.
As for Wang Qinian, although there was no one behind him, the highest pile of silver on the table was in front of him, all of which he had won without any effort.
As for Teng Zijing, he was still fishing in a hurry and miserable.
Let’s talk about the mahjong game between Mei Chengan and three others.
Mei Chengan was lucky. He became the banker right from the start. He won a good start with a hidden gang and a self-touch, and successfully won the banker position.
Not only that, the dealer let him win three times in a row, and he won every time.
He earned nearly three hundred taels in one go, and his face was almost crooked with smiles.
Although the banker lost the upper hand in the fifth round, the banker was Li Roujia, and it was Fan Xian who chose the cannon, so Mei Chengan was happy to accept it.
Fan Xian's face was almost wrinkled like a bitter gourd. He was hugged four times in a row and got a hidden kong. The cards in his hand finally started to improve, but in order to stop the game, he casually played a card that he thought was safe, but it turned out to be a failure!
After taking a look at the card Li Roujia pushed, Fan Xian was in pain.
"No, I say, there are three one-piece chickens and four four-piece chickens at the bottom, and you don't even want to open the second and third pieces?"
Li Roujia was very excited and beaming with joy.
"Hehe, I was so busy organizing the other cards that I forgot about it. I didn't realize it until I heard it. I thought there was still one card left, so I didn't want to open it. Now that the cards were almost all gone, I was desperate. I didn't expect that I would finally get this Jue Zhang Yao Chicken. Hahahaha, give me money! Ten taels!"
Fan Xian was extremely speechless. He picked up a ten-liang silver coin from the table and threw it over, rubbing his mahjong pieces and gritting his teeth.
"Come again!"
Lin Wan'er, who was standing by, was very calm. Seeing this, she just smiled and didn't say anything to comfort Fan Xian.
There are happy people and sad people at every card table. Of course, it can't always be all joy and all sorrow. Offense and defense can change, emotions can shift, and smiles can be transferred.
That's what can be called wonderful, isn't it?
When the second prince arrived, he saw such a lively scene.
He waved his hand to exempt everyone from the formalities and let them continue playing. The Second Prince looked at the flower crown on Mei Chengan's head with a slightly strange look in his eyes.
Mei Cheng'an was not in a very high spirits. Not only did he lose all the money he won at the beginning, but he also lost thirty taels. He glanced at the cards, casually threw out an eight-tube, and then looked at the second prince.
"Why is the Second Prince here?"
The second prince laughed.
"I was just a little bored staying in Kyoto. I heard that you guys were coming here to play, so I thought I'd come join in the fun. You won't blame me for coming uninvited, right?"
Mei Chengan said with relief, how can you still leave even if it's your fault? No need to ask, you must be coming for Fan Xian, and waved his hand.
"No, no, now that you're here, would you like to have a go? I can make room for you."
The second prince observed the situation on the table and smiled.
"Did you...lose money?"
Mei Chengan shrugged, his tone somewhat dejected.
"Your Highness has a keen eye, but all of them were won over by your cousin."
Upon hearing this, the Second Prince subconsciously glanced at the silver piled up like a small mountain in front of Lin Wan'er, then looked at the sparse scattered silver in front of Mei Cheng'an and couldn't help laughing.
"Okay, I'll meet Wan'er for you and see how powerful she is."
