Chapter 1243: Pushing the Boat

"Ling'er, what's going on, Mother is anxious!" Mrs. Meng watched the eldest lady of the Meng family sit down, and hurriedly asked, she can only count on her daughter in this matter, fortunately, this daughter has been shrewd and strong since she was a child, and she never let herself down.

"Mother, I want to ask, what will happen to you if your father really can't come out?" asked the eldest lady of the Meng family.

"What! I can't get out!" Mrs. Meng never thought that what she heard was this answer, and she had never thought of such a result!

"How could it be, didn't your father bring something to say? If you give the money and you can put it back, is this fake?" asked Mrs. Meng, who was already a little flustered.

Seeing such a flustered Mrs. Meng, the eldest lady of the Meng family smiled faintly, but this smile came very quickly, and disappeared again in an instant, so that Mrs. Meng didn't notice it at all.

"I went to see Lin Xi today, does my mother know what it is for?" asked the eldest lady of the Meng family.

"Isn't it to intercede with your father?" Mrs. Meng was a little surprised, why did her daughter ask like this?

"Naturally, it's to intercede for my father! What does my mother think I have to do with Lin Xi? Doesn't my mother really know about the grievances back then? If it weren't for the fact that Lin Xi let go of my father, why would I be embarrassed in front of others!"

The eldest lady of the Meng family said mockingly, just looking at Mrs. Meng, Mrs. Meng's expression was a little flustered, and she subconsciously lowered her head.

She thought that she knew that her daughter was going to apologize, after all, they had also targeted Lin Xi back then. She still has a hint of fantasy that as long as her daughter apologizes sincerely, maybe Lin Xi can forgive them and help.

Although she knew that this would make Miss Meng embarrassed, but Mrs. Meng wanted to let Master Meng come back, even if it was to kneel down for Lin Xi and beg for mercy, she would not hesitate to do it, who would make the family now the real ruler of the Northland.

"Ling'er, you mean, the eldest lady won't forgive us!!, what the hell is going on?!" Mrs. Meng asked anxiously, the eagerness in her heart had already surpassed the guilt.

"I put down my face, knelt down and begged Lin Xi, begging her to let our Meng family go once, it was all our fault before. However, she refused to help, and said that no matter what, the Meng family didn't want to gain a foothold in Jinping City, and her father would not let her go. "Miss Meng, when she said this, tears flashed in her eyes, her voice was choked, and her sincere appearance made people not have the slightest doubt.

"What? She is so ruthless! No, I will beg her, I will kneel down for her, and I must let your father come back!" Mrs. Meng said, getting up and about to run out, but was caught by the eldest lady of the Meng family.

"Mother, don't go, it's useless, our grudge with the Lin family is too deep, not only do they refuse to help, but they also want to fall into the well. The eldest lady of the Meng family said this, and Mrs. Meng cried instantly.

"I shouldn't, I shouldn't let you go! Otherwise, the Lin family wouldn't have interfered. Mrs. Meng thumped her chest and said, regretting that she was obsessed with ghosts, and she actually thought that Lin Xi would help.

Hearing this, the eldest lady of the Meng family's expression became even more ugly, Mrs. Meng didn't mean to complain about her.

If you hadn't proposed to go to the Lin family to intercede, it wouldn't have angered Lin Xi, and it wouldn't have caused your father to not be able to come back. That's what it means, right?

Sure enough, no one cares about her dedication to the Meng family for so many years, they all take it for granted, and they don't ask for anything in return, hehe.

"Mother's remorse now doesn't help, let's think about how to deal with the next thing. The eldest lady of the Meng family's tone changed, and said coldly, but Mrs. Meng didn't hear it.

"Ling'er, what do you think we should do? Mrs. Meng habitually asked the eldest lady of the Meng family, and she had become a listener to her in everything.

"Does Mother know how much money my father spent on buying food this time?" asked the eldest lady of the Meng family, Mrs. Meng's face changed slightly, and then she slowly shook her head.

When the eldest lady of the Meng family saw this situation, she sneered in her heart, and she didn't tell the truth to herself at this time, she really regarded her as a married girl and an outsider.

"Since my mother didn't know, let's go to the study and take a look at the account books. Maybe my father still left some money for himself, but not necessarily. The eldest lady of the Meng family said this, and Mrs. Meng hurriedly nodded and asked people to go to the study to bring the account books.

"Your father actually spent so much silver!" Mrs. Meng was also a little surprised when she looked at the account book, she didn't think that Master Meng had invested so much silver in buying food, which was equivalent to more than half of the Meng family's savings.

"It seems that there is no money left on the books, how can we save our father?" asked the eldest lady of the Meng family, her eyes turning and staring at Mrs. Meng.

"Me, I still have some dowry silver. Mrs. Meng said with difficulty.

"How many?" asked the eldest lady of the Meng family, knowing that in order to save her father, her mother would definitely take out all the silver.

"And two hundred thousand taels. Mrs. Meng didn't dare to say more, and she didn't tell the truth to her daughter, in fact, the entire Meng family still had about 800,000 taels of silver left.

"I see, but with so much silver, I'm afraid it's not enough, right?" Miss Meng said with a sad face.

"We still have shops, and those shops can also sell a lot of silver, as long as the governor is willing, we can give these shops. Mrs. Meng said this, biting her lip, feeling distressed.

"But mother, even if she gave all these to Governor Zhou, will my father be able to come back? Lin Xi can really let us go?" asked the eldest lady of the Meng family.

This sentence seemed to drain Mrs. Meng's strength all at once, how could she not think of this? It was precisely because she thought of it that she did not take out all the silver. But even if they gave these to the Zhou Governor's Mansion, they didn't dare to judge what the result was.

"Mother is willing to listen to me?" asked the eldest lady of the Meng family, her expression shining brightly.

"Ling'er, you say. "Mrs. Meng has no defense against her own daughter.

"I didn't understand my mother's suffering before, but now that I'm married and into my mother-in-law's family, I understand a truth. In this world, it is not your husband who can be trusted, only your own blood relatives, parents and children are the real dependents. For my mother, it's not my father who can really rely on me, but my younger brother. ”

When the eldest lady of the Meng family said this, she did not mention herself, but talked about her younger brother. It's just that Mrs. Meng was still a little shocked when she heard this, and she never thought that her daughter would say such a thing directly, which was a bit shocking.
