Chapter 428: Humiliation
After finishing the matter, Mrs. Meng proposed to meet her little grandson, and Su Yiqing nodded and agreed.
Just when Mrs. Meng thought that she would let the nurse take the child out, she told Mama Qing to take Mrs. Meng to see the child, but she didn't have the slightest intention of going to see it together.
This move surprised Mrs. Meng again, generally speaking, when guests come to visit and ask to see the child, how can the mother not accompany her? Now this little blessing actually let people lead her to see the child? This is really too abnormal, but what is even more surprising is still to come, she followed Mama Qing for a while, and then arrived at the courtyard where the child was raised.
As a newborn child, it is too late to cherish it as a biological mother, how can she bear to let her child live in a yard so far away from her with the nurse?
There was something in her heart, so she hurriedly glanced at the child, and she had lost some weight, but she cried loudly and looked quite healthy, and then Mama Qing sent her to the door.
Before getting into the carriage, Mrs. Meng couldn't help it, and when she saw that no one was paying attention, she grabbed Mama Qing and asked secretly: "What's wrong with the princess?
Qing Mama was a little apprehensive, glanced around, and then whispered: "Who said no? Before the child was born, although the princess was worried about the prince, but in general it was okay, and she also made a few clothes for children with her own hands, and asked the experienced old grandmother, how to take care of the newborn baby, how many times a day to feed, when can you eat rice soup and the like, when she is not in good spirits, as long as she mentions the topic of children to her, she is happy." But after giving birth to a child, people feel even less energetic, and they rarely even hold their children. ”
"How so?" said Madame Meng, whose face was full of consternation.
"The old slave doesn't know, he dared to ask twice, but the princess didn't say anything......" Qing Mama said this, her voice even lowered, "But according to the old slave's guess, it may be related to a few grandmothers sent from the palace, who stared at the princess's every move all day long, and where the princess went when she was not yet giving birth." And they followed. Once the princess walked to the back door, and the grandmothers were as nervous as if they were something, and immediately came forward to live. As if he was afraid that the princess would run away. Just wait for the princess to give birth to the little prince. Those grandmothers stayed in front of the little prince every step of the way, and the idlers were not allowed to take a step closer. ”
There was such a thing, and Mrs. Meng asked again: "Then the princess didn't say anything?"
According to Xiaofu's temperament. It's not someone who can endure such humiliation.
Speaking of this, Mama Qing sighed: "That's someone from the palace, what can the princess do if she is displeased? The old slave overheard those grandmothers muttering that when the child grows stronger, he will take the child to the palace...... Hearing some gossip about these grandmothers all day long, how can the princess be in a good mood?"
Mrs. Meng heard that Mama Qing said that she might have to take the child to the palace, and she was stunned, she then remembered that the prince was ordered to guard the border and lead the heavy troops, and the court must not be at ease, she deeply understands this, when Meng also went on the expedition in the past, they could not leave Yancheng or even leave their own house for half a step, for fear that something would happen, they ran away, and the court could not control these generals who led the troops outside.
It's just that at that time, the court didn't do so obviously for them, and they also realized that their husbands were away on the expedition, and the wives should take care of the children at home with peace of mind, how could they go out to hang out like no one else, participate in activities such as tea parties and flower parties, and over time, she didn't feel anything when she got used to it.
Now it's Xiaofu's turn, presumably Xiaofu can't get used to it all of a sudden, although the concubine is not taken seriously, and she must have suffered a lot when she was young, but Xiaofu has been alone since she was a child, and it is certain that she is lonely, but when it comes to being angry, it is estimated that there is no one in the countryside who can give her anger.
How can such a person endure the treatment of a few grandmothers?
It's just that those grandmothers are royal people after all, and it depends on the owner to beat the dog, presumably Xiaofu is very distressed, and the prince was not around when he gave birth, and he didn't come back after that, so it's understandable to be depressed.
When Mrs. Meng thought of this, she couldn't help sighing, as a woman, she has only one 'difficult' word in her life, and her fate is not at all controllable, even if it is a strategic person like Xiaofu.
It's better to think about it or marry into a low door, it's great to be a mother-in-law and a sister-in-law, it's really difficult to get along, everyone rolls up their sleeves and fights, and the mother's family can also help, and if you can't go on, you can still get along.
Marrying into a high-ranking family, life and death depend on others, and no matter how carefully you manage many things, you can't control it.
I returned home with emotion.
Mama came to report, saying that Miss Dong Guifeng came to visit, but she was not in the house, and she waited in the flower hall for a long time, and did not leave until it was getting late.
Mrs. Meng couldn't help frowning, since she almost turned her face with her sister last time, she rarely went to the Dong family, her own sister rarely contacted, and this sister's nominal daughter had almost no contact, especially this woman had a bad stomach, calculating her sister, calculating her own daughter, and letting go of her good days, but she had nothing to do all day long.
The viciousness of the heart can be determined, she doesn't want to have anything to do with such a person, I remember the last time Dong Guifeng came to the door, it was when Yan'er got married, for her alone, she was also on guard for a long time, for fear that this scheming woman would cause something at her daughter's wedding.
Fortunately, nothing happened in the end, I don't know if she didn't dare, or if she didn't have a chance, in short, it was best not to meet such an uneasy and well-meaning person.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Meng instructed the steward, Dong Guifeng came to the door again in the future, just find an excuse to keep her out, it doesn't matter if she offends her, she wants to harm her own sister and has a miscarriage, do you still need to maintain a superficial relationship?
After that, Mrs. Meng also asked the maid to send a letter to Meng Yan immediately, asking her daughter not to see Dong Guifeng, so as not to cause any trouble.
As for the housekeeper saying that Dong Guifeng seems to have something important or something, Mrs. Meng doesn't even want to listen to it, the other party is too cunning, and if she listens to it, she may fall into a trap.
Anyway, the two families have never had any contact, so what important things can they do?
……
The Dong family's side.
Mrs. Dong hugged her son contentedly. Humming a nursery rhyme to coax her son to sleep, she couldn't help frowning when she heard the maid report that the eldest lady was back.
This Dong Guifeng, I don't know what's going on recently, I go back to my parents' house if I have nothing to do, it's understandable to say that I flatter my father and get some benefits, but it's a bit abnormal to go to myself.
They are called Mother and Daughter. In fact, it can be said that it is the opposite. Dong Guifeng disobeyed her three times and twice before, she could bear it, who called her an elder, it was not good to deal with a little girl. But in the end. Dong Guifeng actually wanted to kill her son. This is absolutely intolerable, she didn't drive Dong Guifeng away not because of magnanimity, but because she didn't have a chance.
to the back. I got into a big trouble, and I was rejected by my husband, so I didn't dare to do anything more, and I had a big belly before, and I couldn't take care of the children after that, I really couldn't be distracted, I just thought that Dong Guifeng was married anyway, just have less contacts.
Some time ago, I was still safe, why did Dong Guifeng go back to her parents' house frequently in the past few days, and she insisted on coming to her again and again?
Mrs. Dong was upset, and she didn't bother to make excuses, so she directly asked the maid to tell her, saying that she was tired and wanted to rest, so that Dong Guifeng didn't have to come to ask for peace.
thought that after saying this, Dong Guifeng would stop a little.
Unexpectedly, not long after, there was a commotion outside the door.
The maid's anxious voice, "Miss, Madam is resting, you really can't go in." ”
"I'm just saying hello to my mother. Dong Guifeng's voice came immediately.
It seemed that she was going to break in, Mrs. Dong hurriedly handed the child to the nurse and asked her to hold the child from the back room, so as not to let Dong Guifeng break in directly, she didn't want Dong Guifeng to get within ten steps of her child.
Sure enough, as soon as the nurse took the child out, Dong Guifeng broke in.
In this way, no matter how good-tempered a person is, he will be angry, and Mrs. Dong immediately sank her face and said, "What are you doing?"
"Mother, the daughter heard that her mother was unwell, so she wanted to come and see her. Dong Guifeng said respectfully.
Mrs. Dong glanced at the messenger who followed Dong Guifeng in.
The maid hurriedly said: "Miss, the slave maid only said that the lady was tired, but did not say that the lady was unwell......"
"Forget it, you go out first. "Mrs. Dong has no intention of embarrassing a little maid.
The little maid was pardoned, and her legs and feet walked away quickly.
Mrs. Dong didn't want to do some superficial work of mother-daughter love with Dong Guifeng, so she simply lowered her face and said, "Now that you have seen it, you can go." ”
"Mother, my mother-in-law's family just got a box of blood bird's nests, and my daughter knew that her mother liked to eat bird's nest, so she specially used it to honor her mother. Dong Guifeng said, took out a gift box from the maid behind him, and was about to open it to show Mrs. Dong.
"No need to open it. Mrs. Dong waved her hand, "It's not me as a mother who wants to teach you a lesson, a married girl, from your mother-in-law's house to your mother's family, people who know say that you are filial, and those who don't know think that I instigated you to take something from your mother-in-law's house to supplement your mother's family." ”
"Mother, don't worry, this is what my mother-in-law specially asked me to send, not stealing. Dong Guifeng hurriedly explained.
"Who knows, even if you know, people will say that your mother-in-law is good, and she is not as knowledgeable as her daughter-in-law. Mrs. Dong said sarcastically, "I still lack this bite of food, so I will simply tell you to make it clear today, the food you sent a few days ago is still lying in the warehouse, do you want me to explain it again?"
Dong Guifeng's eyes turned red instantly, and then tears fell, and he knelt directly on his knees, "Mother, my daughter knows that she is wrong, please ask her mother for forgiveness." ”
Mrs. Dong was unmoved, she didn't mean to step forward to help at all, and said coolly: "Miss, what kind of person you were before, what kind of things you did you know in your heart, it's easy for me to say a word of forgiveness, but what do you want in the future? You have been going back to your parents' house frequently recently, and every time you come back, you have a big bag, and you insist on coming to me, what is your idea? I heard that you have also been to Mrs. Meng twice, and you have eaten a closed door, should you not look at the scenery of the Meng family now and want to get any benefits from others, what do you want?"
"Mother......" Dong Guifeng was a little speechless for a while, she knew that she couldn't hide the matter of eating behind closed doors at Meng's house, but she didn't expect Mrs. Dong to say it without any emotion, and her face suddenly turned blue and white.
Mrs. Dong said again: " I'll make it clear today, I don't want to care about what you did before, and I don't have that effort, but it's impossible for me to act as if nothing happened, whether you are sincere or fake, in the future, you will come to me less, counting on bowing your head and sending something to get cheap, it's really ridiculous, what is the situation of the Meng family now, even my own sister doesn't dare to come to the door more, so as not to be said to take the opportunity to stammer, you are good, send your face three times and twice to let people step on it, you don't have a shame, but also think about it for me and your father, by the way, if you want to fight any crooked ideas, let alone no, now the daughter of the Meng family has a firm foothold in the Dingwang Mansion, if you annoy others, some are bitter. ”
A few words that didn't leave any affection were spoken.
Dong Guifeng was embarrassed and came out of Mrs. Dong's house crying.
After a while, Master Dong came to Mrs. Dong's room.
Mrs. Dong looked at Master Dong with a wary face, erecting thorns all over her body like a hedgehog, just waiting for Master Dong to say something for Dong Guifeng, or even reprimand her, she had to fight back immediately, she knew that Master Dong still loved this daughter very much, Dong Guifeng cried a few more times, and Master Dong would forget what this daughter had done in the past.
Seeing Mrs. Dong's expression, Master Dong let out a long sigh and said, "Why are you so bothered? After all, it is a family, Feng'er knows that it is wrong, why should you ...... The words are so ugly. ”
Mrs. Dong immediately said: "What's wrong with me? Do you want me to act as if nothing happened? Give her a chance to harm me again? Don't say anything and know that it's wrong, I'm not a worm in your daughter's belly, I don't know what she thinks, master, ask yourself, isn't your daughter's recent behavior abnormal? She really knows it's wrong, so she goes back to her parents' house all day long, and comes back with a big bag of things?"
A series of questions made Master Dong speechless, in all fairness, he really didn't believe that his daughter had no purpose at all, but he just felt that his daughter was probably in trouble, and hoped that the Meng family could help, after all, everyone was a relative, but he also knew that his wife and sisters had never repaid their grievances with virtue, especially which eldest sister-in-law, whose surname was several more powerful than his wife, and he couldn't rub any sand in his eyes, and his daughter wanted the Meng family to help, unless it was his wife who spoke, it was impossible. (To be continued......)
