Chapter 427: Lonely

The result of Mrs. Meng's inquiry, said that the Chu family was honest and opened a silk village, and the two sons followed their father to sell cloth, and the father and son had a good vision, and the business was booming, but because of this jealousy, and when they had no power to do business, they were often oppressed, and Mrs. Chu had no choice but to think of marrying an official family.

In addition, there is another important reason, the Chu family has a daughter, only twelve years old, with bright eyes and bright teeth, the family of businessmen, there is such a beautiful daughter who can't hide it from people at all, with Master Chu's many years of experience in business, such beauty is a disaster in ordinary people's homes.

Seeing that their daughter is growing up day by day, some people are either tempting, tempting or semi-threatening, wanting to take their daughter away and send her to the noble family as a concubine for two years.

The Chu family was so anxious that they had no choice but to either end their business and go back to the countryside to avoid trouble, or they had to send their daughter away alone, but where was her daughter's appearance not coveted? It was even more dangerous when her parents were not around.

I don't know who gave Mrs. Chu the idea, doesn't she have two sons? Their family conditions are okay, so they ask to marry a high-ranking concubine, give their in-laws more dowry, and have a name, these people will not dare to beat their daughter's idea.

They do business, anyway, most of the time they have to send money to others to dredge, so it is regarded as a dredging fee, and it is better to get a daughter-in-law back than to give it to those officials, and they can't make waves in the water.

But the high-ranking concubines are not that easy to seek, there is no way, they can't even enter the threshold of other people's homes, let alone ask for marriage. At this time, the appearance of the Mi family made Mrs. Chu feel like grasping a life-saving straw.

Since there was no big problem with the Chu family, Mrs. Meng immediately decided that this family affair would be decided.

As for Meng Ye, at the beginning, she wanted to go to Dingwangfu for a trip, and when she came back, she used Xiaofu to suppress Mengye, but after going to Dingwangfu, she saw that Xiaofu's spirit was very bad, so she didn't dare to talk too much, so she didn't mention it.

You can't lie too much. It's hard to take advantage of things that don't have a shadow. In order for Meng Si to lie and offend Xiaofu, it was not cost-effective, after Mrs. Meng returned home, the daughter-in-law of Zhuangzi's steward came to report again, saying that Mi Shi had urged again. And there was a bit of threat in the words. It was said that Meng Shen was very sick. The doctor invited by the house always doesn't look good, so she wants to take Meng Shen out of the house to find a good doctor to take a look and so on.

Mrs. Meng didn't take Michael's threat to heart, and the barking dog didn't bite. Mi is also called Huan, in fact, he doesn't have much courage, but this incident gave her an inspiration.

Turning her head, she exaggerated Mi's threat a few points and told Meng Ye.

Now Meng Ye, who is going to be famous, was anxious when he heard it, the last time he impeached the river for embezzlement made him majestic, but he also offended many people, how many people were waiting to catch his pigtails, the last time Meng Shenzi sued his father, it was not that someone was muttering in the back, because there was no evidence, and he didn't dare to impeach him openly.

At this juncture, if the ignorant woman of Mi really wants to make trouble, it is really a ready-made handle to give to others, and those imperial historians do not use knives and pens to tear him to pieces.

Meng is not good at dealing with women, as a father-in-law, it is not easy to talk directly to his daughter-in-law, so he has to find a way for Mrs. Meng.

Mrs. Meng pushed the boat to tell Mi's plan, Meng Si's own mind naturally didn't say, after all, Meng Ye was a civil official halfway, some things are not very sensitive, I only heard that sacrificing a granddaughter can block Mi's mouth, naturally very willing, not to mention Meng Si's granddaughter, even if Meng Xiaofu was his own daughter, didn't it mean that it was okay to marry a lame man from a semi-businessman family?

Up to now, Meng Shen's family has a bunch of children, large and small, and he hasn't even figured out who is who, and his impression of Meng Yurou and Meng Si is probably not as deep as the maid pouring tea in Mrs. Meng's house.

After Meng also agreed, Mrs. Meng pretended to persuade a few words, saying that the Chu family was a merchant after all, and the girl was a little wronged when she married in the past?

Meng also scoffed, Meng Shen's family has lived in the countryside for so many years, so poor that they almost didn't go to the street to ask for food, if they didn't come to Yancheng, those girls would be amazing to marry a poor and sour talent in the countryside, or a small landlord with a few acres of land, although the Chu family is a businessman, compared to those in the countryside, it is a rich family, a village girl who grew up in the countryside, what else do you want?

When these words came out, Mrs. Meng couldn't help but murmur secretly in her heart, now Meng Xiaofu, who Meng Ye fancies, is she also a village girl who grew up in the countryside? Meng Ye is sometimes short-sighted and only cares about immediate interests.

Then, according to Mi's words, he sent Meng Si and Meng Nian sisters back to Zhuangzi.

Just in case, she also gave Meng Si and Meng Nian sisters a clever maid, and also told the housekeeper daughter-in-law on Zhuangzi to take a good look at Mi's, lest she be instigated by someone to resell Meng Si and Mengnian sisters to someone else.

When she began to listen to Meng Si, she also sympathized with this poor girl, but thinking about it afterwards, she couldn't help pinching a cold sweat, if Meng Si and Meng Nian sisters had something happen to the Zhuangzi, Mi made a fuss, saying that they killed Meng Si and Meng Nian, it was really falling into the Yellow River and couldn't be washed.

The steward of the Zhuangzi, as well as the maid and the maid-in-law, were all sent by her, and the rice grain was also sent by her, if she really starved to death, would anyone believe that this was done by the Mi family alone, and a large number of people on her Zhuangzi were unaware?

Those subordinates were only afraid that they knew, but they just felt that she didn't care about the Meng Shen family, no matter how they made trouble, she didn't care, so she didn't report it, and when she saw Mi's abuse of Meng Simengnian, she didn't want to have anything to do.

Thinking of the strictness of the matter, Mrs. Meng was worried that she was not very relieved that she was only relying on the Zhuangzi, and there was no capable grandmother around her for a while, so she temporarily found Ping's mother from Meng Yan and sent it to Zhuangzi to deal with this matter.

This Ping's mother did teach Meng Si before she married this Meng Yan. Meng Nian for a while, this excuse, others are not very suspicious, with the means of Ping's mother, the other party Mi is more than wrong, Mrs. Meng's move just feels that it is related to Meng Si for a lifetime, and she doesn't want anything in case.

In the end, Mrs. Meng suddenly thought of something and went to Dingwang's Mansion.

This matter will always be learned of Xiaofu, after all, Meng Si is also Xiaofu's niece. If you don't say a word to Xiaofu. Xiaofu may misunderstand, this life is different from the past, there are some things that the superiors don't care about, they care more about the attitude of others.

She didn't want to arouse Xiaofu's heart disease because of a concubine who was also unfavorable. What undesirable consequences can be triggered. Now Meng Yan's worries are also her worries. She doesn't believe that a person can be magnanimous to the point where he can not care about the harm of others.

Mrs. Meng came to the Dingwang Mansion.

After Xiaofu gave birth, she came a few more times. I don't know why, I just feel that the atmosphere in the Dingwang Mansion is getting duller and duller day by day, and those maids and women are cautious one by one, and the smiles on their faces are fake, and it can be seen that they are very nervous.

When I entered the house, I saw Xiaofu lazily leaning on the collapse and seeing her pick it up, but I just owed it as a greeting.

Although they are mother and daughter, but now Xiaofu is the princess is the king, and the grade is much higher than her, who salutes who is not suitable between them, when there are many people, it shows that she salutes Xiaofu, and then Xiaofu returns the salute, which is very troublesome, so when there is no person, both of them subconsciously avoid this part.

As soon as Mrs. Meng entered the house, she felt a little deserted, obviously the furnishings in this room were the same, but it gave people the feeling of coldness, and then looked closely.

I found that the two large vases in the house were not flowers, but a few emerald willows, and then looked at Xiaofu's body, there were only two simple blonde hairpins on his head, and he was wearing light cyan clothes, and there were almost no red objects in the whole house.

No wonder it looks deserted, I remember that it was not like this before, in the past, the vases were filled with flowers that were blooming brightly, Xiaofu wore most of the red clothes, the hairpin on his head, at least one of the ornaments was red, and there were some red trinkets in the corner, and now this qiē is gone.

After a woman has given birth, does her temperament really become so weird?

Madame Monte was puzzled again.

"How can my mother have time to come to my house to wander around?" Su Yiqing was very displeased with Mrs. Meng's snooping gaze, and her tone was a little unkind as soon as she spoke.

Such an opening sentence made Mrs. Meng a little overwhelmed, Xiaofu didn't speak like this before, could it be that her worries were fulfilled?

"This ...... There has always been nothing big in the house, and your father is not worried about you, so I will come...... Look. Madame Monte was nervous, and she stammered a little.

Seeing Mrs. Meng's faint look of panic, Su Yiqing realized that she was speaking in a bad tone, and hurriedly remedied: "I mean, now that the Meng Mansion is full of guests every day, didn't my mother help greet her?"

"Oh, those are some of your father's guests, all men, and I don't need a woman to greet them. Seeing Su Yiqing's tone turn kind, Mrs. Meng was a little relieved in her heart, and she responded more freely.

Su Yiqing nodded, expressing her understanding, in the past, there was also a lot of traffic at the gate of the Dingwang Mansion, but she never participated in this qiē, the important male guests were naturally received by Lian Yufeng, and the unimportant ones were greeted by the staff raised in the mansion, and trivial matters were arranged by the housekeeper in the mansion, and most of the time she was not needed.

As for those female guests, Old Concubine Xue, Princess Xiangshan and the like can somehow climb up to a little friendship, she will see those who didn't take her seriously before, and only hurriedly came to stammer after seeing her gain a firm foothold, she didn't see it.

Most people who can't offend people are not because of one or two sentences or one or two meetings, those who are so stingy that they hold a grudge or even want revenge because of this little thing, it doesn't matter if they don't make friends, this kind of person doesn't have to wait for her to clean up, sooner or later she will die.

Probably because Su Yiqing didn't seem to be in a very good mood, Mrs. Meng didn't dare to talk about too many meaningless topics, so she directly talked about Meng Si's matter in detail from beginning to end.

Su Yiqing was a little surprised, she couldn't imagine that Mrs. Meng was very interested in a granddaughter who had no blood relationship with her, this incident, Mrs. Meng did not get any benefits, on the contrary, it was easy to bear any accidents, so painstakingly wanting to do something that was not beneficial to herself, it can only show that this is sincere and kind.

Thinking like this, she looked at Mrs. Meng's eyes more softly, people always need some encouragement to do good deeds, and said: "It's rare for my mother to bother so much, for the sake of Meng Si, this is also her blessing, but it's a pity that it's inconvenient for me to go out of the house now, and I may not be able to go to get married. ”

"Then I'll thank you for Meng Si, Xiaofu, it's good that you have this heart, Meng Si can understand. "Mrs. Meng didn't say too much hypocrisy, Meng Xiaofu and Meng Si are aunts and nephews, and they should be close from the point of view of blood, but Xiaofu has been sent to the countryside since he was a child, even if he was not sent to the countryside before, Yimeng and his ex-wife's behavior, it must be very bad to treat Xiaofu, let alone Xiaofu and Meng Shen, there will be no brother and sister relationship.

After Meng Shen came back, Xiao Fu has been ignoring it, although he didn't take the initiative to mention Meng Shen's matter, but then the matter was too big, Xiao Fu must have heard about it, she thought there was no such thing, obviously she didn't want to pay attention to too much, since she didn't pay attention to it, maybe she said that she would not pursue it anymore.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Meng breathed a sigh of relief, otherwise she thought of Meng Ye's vague attitude towards the death of Xiaofu's biological mother, and she couldn't even tell where Xiaofu's biological mother was buried.

Even the means of resisting the wind are particularly ruthless, and some of them are unspeakable ways to make people bitter, just like treating the Ning family, now the entire Ning family has been uprooted, and the reputation of all the married daughters of the Ning family has been affected, and the outsiders are okay, but they don't dare to go out to meet people in Yancheng at all. For fear that others would ask about Ning Ya'er, and then ask if the girls of the Ning family are like this?

Because of a Ning Yaer, the entire Ruicheng palace has made people turn upside down, Ruicheng prince is romantic, there is a capable wife in the inner house, originally only knew the wind and snow, to be his idle prince, leisurely life, who would have expected that in his later years, for the sake of two unsuccessful children, he was stunned overnight.

The people in Yancheng talked about it, everyone sighed and took it as a warning, outsiders didn't know the inside story and thought that it was Ning's uneasy kindness and set herself on fire, but Mrs. Meng knew in her heart that in the end, this matter had to be the first thing that the county lord of Xiuwen designed the Meng family to form a grudge first, and Ning Yaer's matter intensified the contradiction to the extreme.
