: Mengxuan Fanwai (above)
In the Zhenguo Mansion, Meng Xuan, who is the wife of the prince, is handling household affairs. Spirits are a little weak. Rubbed his temples. The maid next to her hurriedly handed over a cup of tea.
Meng Xuan took the tea and drank it and continued to deal with affairs. At this time, a maid outside walked in and said, "Mrs. Shizi, my uncle is here." β
Meng Xuan heard the people outside say that his uncle was coming, so he hurriedly stood up. My younger brother Tong Fu has been out of tolerance for half a year this time. She got the news that her brother's trip this time was not very peaceful. Now that he has returned safely, it has also relieved his hanging heart.
When Ping Tongfu came in, he saw his sister with tears in her eyes, and walked forward and said, "Second sister, what's wrong with you?" I'm so good, why are you crying? β
Meng Xuan wiped her tears: "Don't cry, I'm happy!" Looking forward to the stars and the moon, I finally hope you back. Did you go back to see your mother? Mother has been thinking about you for half a year. β
Ping Tongfu nodded: "I've already met my mother." Mother is fine, you don't have to worry. But second sister, don't worry too much. "It's very tiring to manage such a big mess of the Guogong Mansion.
Meng Xuan smiled and shook her head: "This is what I should have done, there are people below to help, I'm fine." It's you, but you've lost weight and blackened after going out for half a year this time. β
Ping Tongfu didn't say that the process of this business trip was thrilling, and he smiled and avoided the important and lightly said the interesting stories along the way. After talking for about a quarter of an hour, the prince came over.
What does Ping Tongfu say to this brother-in-law! For the sake of my brother-in-law's face, I was polite. Other than that, nothing else. So what is said at the moment is all polite words.
Ping Tongfu went back after eating.
Meng Xuan sent Ping Tongfu away with red eyes, and then looked back at her husband: "Let the prince smile." "My brother returned safely this time, and she couldn't help herself for a while.
The prince of the world, Luo Dahu, smiled and didn't say anything at the moment. For this brother-in-law, he has the heart to make friends, but it is obvious that the brother-in-law does not treat him well. In fact, Luo Dahu didn't know why his brother-in-law was so unkind to see him now. I remember that I used to get along quite well, even when I got married to my wife, I was quite kind. But the more time passed, the less affection was for him. More than polite. At first, he still wanted to figure out the reason and repair the relationship.
Speaking of which, his brother-in-law is also a talent. The two lists of scholars are outspoken, and the imperial examination is entered; But his skills are also good, and he belongs to people who can be both civil and martial, both civil and military. After joining the company, the future is also bright. But I don't know why, and finally voted for His Royal Highness Ling Yu. Squad prematurely.
Because of this, his father asked him to stay away from this brother-in-law. Dad told him that his brother-in-law was very ambitious. If you win, you will climb to the sky in one step, and if you lose, you are afraid that you will have to implicate the family. He listened to his father's words, and since then his relationship with this brother-in-law has become more and more alienated. There were not many words.
Meng Xuan didn't know what the prince was thinking. Just whispered about some things about the mansion. Of course, there are things that she can't meddle with.
After hearing this, Brother Hu nodded his head: "You did the right thing in this matter." There are some muddy waters, and we can't mix them. Speaking of which, he was still very satisfied with his wife. The family is a good hand, and he handles it properly inside and out, and he is also very decent about foreign affairs, and he has never been distracted by the affairs of the inner house.
Meng Xuan smiled decently when she heard this: "It should be." "That's his job.
While the husband and wife were talking, they heard someone from outside say, "Lord Shizi, Mrs. Shizi, Aunt Hua is not feeling well and wants to ask for a doctor." β
Brother Tiger looked at Meng Xuan.
Meng Xuan said with a smile: "The prince will go to see his aunt first." I asked people to take the right cards and ask the doctor to treat Aunt Hua. β
Brother Tiger nodded and went out.
Qiqi, the maid beside Meng Xuan, said hatefully: "Madam is a good character. Fucked by this slut. "She sometimes thinks that Mrs. Shizi is too kind.
Meng Xuan smiled: "If she wants to toss, let him toss!" "Mrs. Tai and Mrs. Guo are both very well-behaved people, and they will not be treated with special leniency because of your special status.
Qiqi stomped his feet, his wife was really anxious.
Meng Xuan waved her hand and said, "You go down first!" "This girl was given by the old lady, and she can't let her know a lot of words.
Meng Xuan thought about the grandmother who went to care for the elderly. The absence of a grandmother by his side is equivalent to the loss of an arm. She sighed heavily. Originally, the family was harmonious and Lele. But her brother is ambitious, so he won't tell her this time, but she knows very well that her brother will go out on an errand this time and it will be very dangerous. Wealth is in danger, and if you want to be prosperous and rich, you have to pay a huge price. She's just such a brother. If he could, he really hoped that Fu Ge'er would not fight.
The personal maid Ziyi beside Meng Xuan came over with a cup of tea: "Madam, the more Aunt Hua tosses, the better." When the time comes, let Mrs. Tai know how to see how she still jumps. "It is said that the reason why Grandpa Guo only had three sons-in-law back then was because Mrs. Tai didn't like concubines. All the aunts who were in trouble were sold by Mrs. Tai. Now Mrs. Tai lives in the temple for a long time. Regardless of the affairs of the mansion. In addition, Mrs. Shizi has a good temperament, and the woman relied on the support of the Duchess of Youguo, so she didn't know how to jump up and down.
Meng Xuan didn't speak, just drank tea quietly. It didn't take long to get the news that Aunt Hua was pregnant. Meng Xuan is not surprised, her husband dotes on Aunt Hua, and he doesn't use child-avoiding medicine. It's only a matter of time before you get pregnant.
It's just that I didn't expect that Aunt Hua had a miscarriage in less than three months, and the person who drugged her was the person she sent to serve Aunt Hua. Because of this incident, the prince was furious and decided that she had done the sin. She also said that she could not tolerate people.
She immediately went to the main courtyard and knelt in front of her mother-in-law: "Mother, because I did such a thing for my aunt's maid, I thought that I instructed Aunt Hua to have an abortion." The daughter-in-law has never done such a thing, so please ask the mother to investigate the matter thoroughly. "Aunt Hua thinks she is her mother-in-law's maiden niece, so she is very tossed. didn't know that the Guogong Mansion had the rules of the Guogong Mansion, and it was too naΓ―ve to think that she could be dragged off the horse with a child.
Mei'er looked at Meng Xuan, who was kneeling on the ground, and sighed slightly: "I will let people investigate this matter thoroughly." As long as you didn't do it, I will give you a clean slate. Speaking of which, she is also a nest fire. When Meng Xuan got married, she had a very good relationship with her. But her niece was not angry, and she actually hooked up with Brother Tiger, and the two even taught each other privately. It's about her mother's face, and she can only carry her into the mansion if she is unwilling.
She also knew that doing so was to add to her daughter-in-law's blockage. Because she is her niece, her status is more valuable than others, and because of her reasons, her daughter-in-law is also restrained. If you keep to yourself after entering the door, it's just that, but after entering the door, you make trouble every day. She just left it alone. But often you can't ignore it. But I didn't expect that this time it would be a miscarriage.
If it was Mengxuan's medicine, Mei'er didn't believe it. There are already three heirs, and if there is no one, there is no room for such one.
Meng Xuan heard that the Duchess of Guo had summoned the prince over, and later sent someone to reprimand Aunt Luo who was lying on the hospital bed, banned Aunt Hua's feet, and was not allowed to leave the courtyard for three months.
Ziyi was a little uneven. The old lady is too partial to Aunt Hua, and dares to frame Mrs. Shizi, once she is in the main room, she will be killed at the worst, and she will be sent to Zhuangzi at the lightest. But I didn't expect it to be just a three-month confinement. That's partiality.
Meng Xuan smiled lightly when she heard this. This result was predictable. Every time there was a commotion before, the result was heavy thunder and little rain. The mother-in-law said that she didn't care about Aunt Hua, and she would deal with it, but in the end, she intervened. Otherwise, where could Aunt Hua be like this, even she would have calculated it.
Seeing his wife's expression, Ziyi was a little uncomfortable: "Madam, I've hurt you." "My own girl is married highly, and my mother's family can't rely on it. suffered grievances in my in-law's house, and I couldn't even complain.
Meng Xuan smiled: "Everyone has a difficult scripture. I'm already fine. "The rest of the Hei family are still in the slums! And she is now living a life of glory and wealth, fine clothes and fine food.
Meng Xuan thought about the people of the Hei family. I couldn't help but think of my aunt at the moment. Back then, because the Ping family cursed his aunt with witchcraft, the emperor was furious, and the Ping family was robbed. Their house did not affect because of the princess's grandmother. In the end, the three sisters got the favor of their aunt and married good families. Brother Tong also married a famous girl.
Fu Tong once told her that their family owed her aunt too much, so much that she couldn't pay it off in her lifetime. She knows all this, after she marries into the Guogong Mansion. Even if her mother's family is weak, no one in the Guogong Mansion looks down on her. Not only does she have a rich dowry, but also because she has an aunt to support him. She was also extremely lucky. After marrying into the national government, she gave birth to her eldest son in the first year, and her second son in the third year. Although it is said that when he gave birth to his second son, the doctor said that he was injured, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to give birth after the rain. But she already has two sons and has already established herself in the Guogong Mansion.
The mother-in-law is charitable, the husband and wife are loving, and they have raised two sons. She feels that life is already very happy. It's just that she never dreamed that her husband and her mother-in-law and niece would have an affair. And the mother-in-law and her husband didn't ask her, and they had to carry the woman into the house. You even have to enter the door in the name of a side room. It broke her heart.
Ziyi saw that his wife was muffled and did not speak, and the corners of his eyes were sour. When the girl was in her mother's house, she said the same. Where it is now, everything is constrained. His temperament has also changed a lot.
Meng Xuan thought that this matter was over, but she didn't expect it to be there! Shi Ziye went to the old lady and said that Aunt Hua had been wronged, and he had promised to give Aunt Hua the title of the side room, and now he wanted to carry Aunt Hua as the side room.
I don't know what the old lady's attitude is, but since there is no refusal, she must be thinking about it. Ziyi said with tears in her eyes: "Madam, if Aunt Hua is carried into a side room, it will become more and more unbearable." β
Meng Xuan sneered: "Aunt Hua went to the location of the side room at the beginning, but unfortunately my father-in-law disagreed. Now that I am doing such a thing, I still want to be promoted to a concubine, and I am dreaming. "The real master of the Guogong Mansion is the father-in-law, not the mother-in-law.
At the beginning, Aunt Hua's matter, her mother-in-law was inclined to her own family. The father-in-law's attitude is very clear, the concubine can, but I want to be a side room, two words, don't think about it. Because of this, Xiao Luo could only enter the door as an aunt. If not, she would be even more difficult to suppress.
Speaking of which, she really got her aunt's light. My aunt is not only a sister to her mother-in-law, but also a very good friend to her father-in-law. Because of these two layers of relationship, she was able to successfully marry into the Guogong Mansion. Otherwise, with the situation of their family at the time, they decided to withdraw from their relatives.
Aunt Hua always thinks that her family is better than her because her mother's family is weak. I always want to step on her on the top. If it weren't for her mother-in-law and her aunt, the Duchess would protect her. Where would she still be so bouncing by her, she would have been eliminated a long time ago. Not to mention designing to frame her today.
The affairs of the inner house, the grandfather of the country does not care. So she asked Grandpa Guo to know about it. Grandpa Guo asked the prince to go. She didn't know what Grandpa Guo said to the prince, but Aunt Hua was sent to the family temple. It wasn't until three months later that her husband picked her up.
After returning from the family temple, Aunt Hua was very peaceful. But Aunt Hua's peace made her more vigilant. This woman, when she came back from the family temple, became more and more composed.
On this day, she was dealing with things, and a steward outside came in and said, "Mrs. Shizi, the eldest girl has sent a gift from Haikou. With that, he sent the list up.
Meng Xuan looked at the long list. With a smile, the steward was led down. Speaking of this sister-in-law, she is also a lucky one. Within two months of getting married, she followed her husband to Haikou. There is no mother-in-law to take care of it, and her husband never accepts a child, and she gives birth to a big fat boy the next day. After that, one was born every other year, and every time it was a big fat boy. From the past to the present, every year for the New Year and the festival is a generous gift. When the people in the Guogong Mansion talk about it, they all say that the eldest girl is blessed.
Purple clothes on the side, naturally said that the big girl was so blessed. This has given birth to three big fat boys, and the eldest aunt is not small, and she lives a comfortable life.
Meng Xuan smiled slightly: "Yes, it's a blessing." Not only the big girl is so blessed. Even the big county lord of King Chun's mansion is also a good blessing. The eldest girl didn't say anything, after all, she followed her husband to Haikou and stayed away from the capital. The great lord of King Chun's Mansion is the real blessed person. My parents-in-law didn't live with them. He is the master of his own house, and his husband and wife are affectionate and loving, and they envy others.
Ziyi couldn't help but say: "It's also the county lord's heart, and it's a blessing to be her daughter-in-law." It is said that the county lord was reluctant to live with his son and daughter-in-law, saying that he was afraid of conflict and affecting his mood. And Wencheng is not allowed to wait for concubines. Having such a mother-in-law is not a blessing for a daughter-in-law.
Meng Xuan chuckled: "My aunt has always been kind-hearted and generous. "It's like my aunt has a lot of Buddhas for their family. But they never need to be gracious.
Ziyi was silent.
The maid ran over in a panic and shouted, "Madame, ma'am, it's not good. The eldest son, the eldest prince is not good. β
She almost fainted when she heard it. Meng Xuan knew that Xiao Hua was restless. I didn't know that Fahrenheit Jr. was so bold. Hit his son's idea. But with perseverance, I ran over to see my son, and saw that my son was covered in blood.
When I asked, I found out that my son fell from the rockery. fell unconscious. Fortunately, God blesses, although my son broke his leg, the doctor said that it would be fine if he raised it for three or five months. It will not leave the root of the disease. Nor will it become a disability.
She grabbed the evidence, proving that it was Xiao Hua's who harmed her brother. But the prince didn't believe it. He even said that he was framed. said that she just couldn't look down on Aunt Hua. The prince found out that it was a complete accident.
The mother-in-law also intervened to investigate, but it was found that it was another aunt who harmed Cheng'er. Not Fahrenheit Jr. This aunt is taking advantage of her conflict with Xiao Hua's to get rid of Brother Cheng.
When she heard this, she was extremely resentful. The aunt didn't give birth to a son, not even a daughter. How can you hurt Brother Cheng'er. It's just that her mother-in-law decided on this matter, and she couldn't refute it.
She looked at her son, who was all wounded, not only her son, but also her husband's child, her mother-in-law's grandson, why did she have to protect this woman. Why do you still have to keep Aunt Hua's poisonous scorpion at home? Keeping this woman in the mansion, I am afraid that not only Brother Cheng, but also Brother Shao will be in danger. No, she must get rid of this woman. It's a pity that she hasn't thought about how to get rid of Fahrenheit Jr., but she falls ill.
Fu Ge'er arrived at the Guogong Mansion to visit Meng Xuan. Seeing Meng Xuan's complexion, it was extremely bad. The complexion is gloomy. The last time he came to see him, although the second sister's face was tired, she was not like this now, I was afraid that there would be something dirty in the Guogong Mansion.
Fu Ge'er asked people to find Meng Xuan's dowry maid and asked about the matter clearly. Fu Ge'er's face was dark, an aunt, the aunt of the Duchess of the Kingdom, was really decent.
Fu Ge'er's wife, He Shi softly soothed: "Master, we can't interfere in this matter. If we intervene, it will be even more difficult for the second sister to be in the Guogong Mansion. "After all, they are outsiders, and if they rashly interfere in the internal affairs of the Guogong Mansion, they will definitely make the Guogong and the Duchess dissatisfied.
Fu Ge'er frowned, if it weren't for this concern, he would have beaten Luo Dahu up a long time ago. Where is still here to bother.
Of the three sisters, the relationship between Fu Geer and Meng Xuan is the best. My mother is a weak person, and I can't rely on it at all. Although the eldest sister does not look like her mother, she has been thinking about her own things a lot since she was a child, and the third sister is like a mother, very soft. Only the second sister always cared about him and taught him many things.
Of the three sisters' families, only the second sister is married. Although the eldest sister and the third sister didn't say anything, they still felt a little gap in their hearts. But according to him. In fact, the second sister is the worst married. The men in the Guogong Mansion are every one of them. From the grandfather of the country to the young master below, who is dissatisfied in the backyard is Yingying Yanyan. Their flat family has fallen again, and they will only be bullied if they marry highly. The second sister is such a strong person, although she has gained a firm foothold in the Guogong Mansion, but the whole person is not so vivid at home, and she always has a dignified and decent smile on her face. Didn't see it once, he was sad once.
He Shi thought for a while and said, "Husband, my aunt and the Duchess are good friends. If it were my aunt, it would be much more useful than if we were to intervene. "No matter what. They don't meddle. But if it's my aunt who intervenes, that's fine.
Fu Ge'er shook his head: "Don't say that you can't see your aunt, even if you do, it's not good to use these things to nag your aunt." β
He chuckled and said, "Husband, the second sister is the matchmaker of the aunt, and the second sister also gave a rich dowry when she married her aunt." This shows that my aunt likes the second sister very much. Now that I know that my second sister has been wronged so much, my aunt will not stand idly by. β
Fu Ge'er thought about it and felt reasonable, and nodded immediately. It's better to find an intermediary to make peace with this matter. The first person that came to mind was Fu Ge'er. It's Ming Jin. Over the years, Brother Fu has always insisted on learning martial arts in the county lord's mansion two days a month. Although it was not as long as Ling Yu and Qi Zhe and Ming Rui's brothers, they were familiar with each other. Later, Ming Jin became a writer, and the relationship between him and Ming Jin gradually improved. Now they are very good friends.
However, He Shi raised an objection: "Husband, I want my statement on this matter." It's best to ask Mrs. Wencheng Hou to mention it to your aunt. It's not good to be too deliberate. "No one knows that the county lord is not a director. If you deliberately run over to talk about it, you won't be afraid to let the Guogong Mansion know. I'm afraid that my aunt will be disgusted when she hears it.
Fu Ge'er thought for a moment and nodded.
After He sent Fu Ge'er away, he rested on the couch for a while. The maid next to him brought ginseng tea: "I used to think that my second aunt and grandmother had a good mother-in-law." But I didn't expect that the Duchess of Guo would make the second aunt and grandmother so embarrassed now. β
After He finished drinking the ginseng tea, he said, "It was good before." That's all for my aunt's sake. Now that's my niece, and everyone is biased. I heard that this woman was raised by Mrs. Hua since she was a child, or did she grow up under the watchful eyes of the Duchess of China. I have loved it since I was a child. Therefore, the second aunt and grandmother can only swallow this loss in their stomachs. "I want He to say that the Duchess of Guo is better than some ladies. At least he didn't directly interfere with his daughter-in-law's backyard. It's just a little eccentric. It's just that the gap between the second aunt and grandmother is too big, which leads to the relationship between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law. Cheaper for nothing than this little Fahrenheit.
The maid said: "The girl is also dedicated to the second aunt and grandmother. "If you can really let the county lord say something for the second aunt and grandmother, then the second aunt and grandmother will have a better time in the Guogong Mansion.
He chuckled: "The second aunt and grandmother are better, and the husband will be better." Speaking of her husband, a smile appeared on He's face.
Fu Ge'er is very kind to his wife He, and the two now have two sons and a daughter. Although it is said that Fu Ge'er also has two concubine rooms, they are all promoted by the He family, and they are served by the He family when it is inconvenient. Fu Ge'er is a very well-behaved person, and there is no such thing as spoiling a concubine and killing his wife. Because of this, the two concubines were honest in front of the He family, and they didn't dare to come out at all. He's life is also extremely comfortable.
The Guogong Mansion received a wedding card from Prince Hao's Mansion, and Prince Hao celebrated his 60th birthday. She is now socializing outside on behalf of the Guogong Mansion, so naturally she went.
To her surprise, her aunt also went to Prince Hao's mansion. My aunt has been closed all these years. Although there are Wencheng Hou Lady who go out to socialize, even if they come and go, they are all in Wencheng Houfu. The door of the county lord's mansion is too tight, and ordinary people can't enter.
Meng Xuandao remembered that when he was a child, he would go to the county lord's mansion several times a month. But later, my father and aunt were estranged and rarely went to the county lord's mansion. The Hei family never went to the county lord's mansion after the accident. It's just that what the three sisters didn't expect was that before the eldest sister left the cabinet, the county lord's mansion sent someone to add makeup to the eldest sister. She is no exception, and so does her sister. Even Brother Fu has a generous gift when he gets married. However, because she is highly married, she is particularly rich in makeup. It was because of her aunt's behavior that she quickly gained a firm foothold in the mansion. It's just that she hasn't seen her aunt for so many years.
Unexpectedly, at this Prince Hao's birthday banquet, my aunt came. She didn't see her aunt, but she saw Mrs. Wenchenghou, that is, the lord of King Chun's mansion. The big lord of King Chun's Mansion doesn't talk about the capital, even if it's rare to find such a beauty in the world. Everyone said that Wencheng Hou Yan was very blessed, but they didn't know that the big county lord was also a good blessing.
Wen Wan has always been impatient to socialize, and as she gets older, she doesn't like socializing more and more. Now she has a daughter-in-law, and everything is a daughter-in-law. Wen Wan is the real hands-off shopkeeper. It's just that this time it's Prince Hao's sixtieth birthday. If she doesn't go out again, Wen Wan has to go over to celebrate her birthday. When I went back, I heard my daughter-in-law Minjia talk about Mengxuan, and said that Mengxuan was not easy.
Since Meng Xuan and the others had an accident with the Ping family, Wen Wan didn't recruit them over. But Wen Wan's care for the four of them is obvious to all. Everyone also knew that Wen Wan didn't like to be noisy, so he didn't think it was rusty.
Wen Wan didn't expect Min Jia to have such a hard time in the Guogong Mansion. was forced into a corner by a concubine. It's unbelievable. Wen Wan was a little skeptical about the authenticity of this. As far as Mei'er knows Wen Wan, she shouldn't be such a confused person.
In addition to caring about business, Wen Wan now spends all her time and energy on her husband, son, and grandson. Nothing else is too much to ask about. So in this matter, Wen Wan didn't ask the people below, so it's not good to give an opinion.
Min Jia saw that her mother-in-law didn't answer her words. There was some disappointment in my heart. Her husband asked her to mention it. She also knew that it must be Pingtongfu who asked her husband. Her husband has a good relationship with her cousin Ping Tongfu, and she will definitely do what her husband asks her to do. In addition, Minjia also thinks that the Duchess of Guo is a bit excessive. My mother-in-law is so good to my sister-in-law, but she is so good to my cousin. Minjia couldn't see it either, so this time she deliberately pretended not to care and mentioned it to her mother-in-law. It's just that I didn't expect my mother-in-law to react.
Wen Wan returned to the mansion and asked what was going on with Qiu Han. Half a day later, I knew what happened before and after. After what Min Jia said was just the tip of the iceberg, there were a lot of things. Wen Wan's brows furrowed after hearing this. Mei'er is also too nonsense, this is not intended to make her son's backyard messy.
What Meng Xuan didn't know was that. Not long after the banquet, the mother-in-law actually said that she would go to the county lord's mansion with her. She was surprised, how could she go to the county lord's mansion.
When she arrived at the county lord's mansion, the county lord's mansion remained unchanged as she remembered. Arrived at the main courtyard. The pomegranate tree is still leafy.
She was led in by the maid. Outside the door, she was suddenly a little afraid to go in. The so-called homesickness should be so!
She looked at her aunt who was sitting on the top seat. The aunt was still as beautiful as he had imagined. The years don't seem to stop on my aunt. Looking at her aunt's smiling face, the tension in her heart disappeared for a moment. My aunt is still as kind as she remembers. She stepped forward and called softly, "Auntie." β
Wen Wan saw Meng Xuan, who had a poor complexion even if she wore heavy makeup, and then thought about Meng Xuan's affairs in the Guogong Mansion. At the moment, his brows were furrowed tightly: "Why is your complexion so bad?" Is it unwell? If you're not feeling well, you'll come back another day. "It's one thing to hear, it's another to look at it. Look at this kid like this. Wen Wan was a little distressed.
Meng Xuan hurriedly said: "No, I just didn't sleep well yesterday." Let my aunt worry, is it Mengxuan's. She didn't expect her aunt to say such a thing. The heart is sour and astringent.
Wen Wan beckoned: "Sit down!" You don't think that if you are young, you can't take good care of yourself. If you don't take good care of yourself now, you will be guilty when you get old. If you don't believe me, ask your mother-in-law to see if this is the case......
Mei'er smiled and said, "That's right. β
Hitting people does not slap people in the face, and exposing people does not expose shortcomings. Wen Wan even had something to say to Mei'er, and it was impossible to say it in front of Meng Xuan. called Qiu Wu: "You give Meng Xuan a good look and help her recuperate." You can't lose your body when you're young. β
Qiu Wu understood and led Mengxuan down.
Meng Xuan didn't know what her aunt was talking to her mother-in-law. When I went back, my mother-in-law's face was solemn. She didn't dare to say anything more.
Back in the main courtyard, Ziyi said softly: "The county lord should have said something to the old lady!" "Looking at the old lady's appearance, it was 100% the county lord who spoke to the old lady. That's fine, what the county lord said, I believe the old lady will consider it.
Meng Xuan shook her head: "No, my aunt will not interfere in the internal affairs of the Guogong Mansion." At most, I can mention two words tactfully.
Mei'er returned to the yard, a little irritated. Ping'er came over and said, "Madam, did the county lord say something?" In the internal affairs of the country's mansion, does the county lord still want to interfere? "Look, it should be for Mrs. Shizi. It's not that Ping'er boasts, his wife is very good to his daughter-in-law. Never make it difficult. It's just Aunt Hua's matter, but the old lady doesn't want to do it, but some things are also a last resort.
Mei'er smiled bitterly: "With her gentle temperament, do you think she will meddle in the affairs of the Guogong Mansion?" Wen Wan just told her some interesting things about Yixuan and Minjia. And then it's about children. Said some words of home and prosperity. Wen Wan didn't mention anything about Meng Xuan.
She knew the subtlety of gentleness. She treats her daughter-in-law as if she were her own daughter, and hopes that she can treat Meng Xuan well. Wen Wan didn't seem to pay much attention to Meng Xuan on her face, but in the end, it was her niece, the child she watched grow up, and she didn't want her to be wronged.
Mei'er sighed heavily. She didn't expect to get to where she is today. This niece has been raised by her mother's side since she was a child, and she is very fond of her mother. Although she did something wrong, every time she went to visit her mother, her mother asked her to take care of her more and take care of her. Now outsiders look at her and think she is abusing her daughter-in-law. It's a wicked mother-in-law.
Ping'er thought for a while and said, "Madam, in fact, there is something I didn't say that day, because I was afraid that Madame, you would be in danger. β
Merle was a little confused. After listening to Ping'er's words, Mei'er was stunned. Then I started looking into it again. The result was a big disappointment for her. She originally thought that Meng Xuan was using this to set up a blame and want to get rid of her niece. But I didn't expect it to be her hand. If she kept to herself after entering the door, she believed that Meng Xuan would be able to tolerate it. Now even her grandson dares to do it, what else can't she do. It seems that it is all her fault, and her mind is getting bigger and bigger.
Meng Xuan was a little surprised to hear that Aunt Hua was sent to Zhuangzi in the countryside to recuperate. But it soon became apparent. I'm afraid that my aunt really told my mother-in-law something. Otherwise, how could the mother-in-law send her niece to Zhuangzi. Although I don't know if I will pick it up in another three or five months, at least it will be quiet for the time being.
Aunt Hua sent it away, and there was a new aunt to fill it. It's just that the new aunt is not the old lady's niece. and the prince are not cousins. She can control it.
She didn't think about being a sole favor, each of the gentlemen in the Guogong Mansion had three wives and four concubines, as long as she guaranteed her status and ensured the position of Cheng Ge'er's eldest son. She didn't think much of the rest.
Listening to Ziyi, Wen Chenghou brought a woman back. She just shook her head slightly. Men are all fishy cats, and it is very difficult to get a man to guard a woman.
Ziyi sighed slightly: "I thought Wencheng Hou could be like the old marquis!" I didn't expect it to be like this. "The old marquis is the best man in the Great Qi Dynasty. Everyone in the world wants to marry a man like Lao Houye.
Meng Xuan smiled when she heard this: "No man will refuse a beauty, it just depends on whether the price paid is enough." "People in the world say that Shenwu is infatuated and single-minded. She also believes that Shenwu Hou loves her aunt very much, but if Shenwu Hou is allowed to stay in the border city for eight years because of this love, it is obviously not enough. She actually prefers to believe that Shenwu Hou knows that if he dares to do something sorry for his aunt, with her aunt's strength, I am afraid that if he decides to reconcile and leave, his son will not be his own. But he persevered, not only succeeded, but also had a harmonious family and close father and son. If Shenwu Hou didn't hold on, the Bai family would not be able to become the number one clan in Daqi.
Of course, even if these reasons exist, a man who has been outside for eight years will not be able to persevere without enough perseverance. Therefore, Shenwu Hou is still worthy of admiration.
Meng Xuan listened to the gossip coming back from outside every day. The woman brought back by Wencheng Hou was placed in Wencheng Houfu. For more than two months after that, everyone was talking about what would happen to this woman. As a result, she had a miscarriage not long after she became pregnant, and even the big county lord did not fall well. In the end, even the county lord and the old marquis had a quarrel.
Meng Xuan laughed when she heard this: "These people are really enough." Just an aunt can make an aunt and uncle quarrel. They also think too highly of this woman. "If my aunt has a heart, she can put this woman to death with a single word. My aunt and uncle had a quarrel, it must be impossible for such a trivial matter, there must be something else.
Ziyi also felt that what his wife said was right.
It didn't take long for this woman to be sent away, and Wen Chenghou personally sent it out. After that, the county lord and the old marquis reconciled as before, and everything returned to nature. This is the end of the gossip topic in the capital.
As a result, it didn't take long for news to come out from the county lord's mansion. said that the county lord said that in the future, the men in the two mansions of Shenwu Hou and Wencheng Hou will not be allowed to take concubines before the age of twenty-nine. The county lord has written this into the family rules. Whoever violates a number of rules shall be removed from the family.
This news boiled over the capital. Those who love their daughters in the capital have their eyes on the grandsons of a few gentle county lords. It's a pity that the county lord said that the child must be fifteen years old before saying goodbye.
Ziyi sighed very much: "The county lord is really ...... In the future, the girls who marry into Shenwu Hou and Wencheng Hou are all blessed. "Although it is not to say that you will never take a concubine. But concubines can only be accepted after the age of twenty-nine. When the concubine enters the door, her sons will grow up, and she will be a grandmother. I'm still afraid of some concubines.
Meng Xuan thinks this family rule is very good. This news caused the second brother and sister to think. My aunt has something to say that three generations will not marry, and the second brother and sister want not to marry Shenwu Houfu, but they can marry Wencheng Hou, and she will never take this stubble. She just used her aunt's words that a child must be fifteen years old before she could say goodbye.
He didn't have to worry about his aunt's affairs, and she didn't have the time to worry about it. What she is worried about now is her younger brother Fu Ge'er. She knew what Fu Ge'er wanted. Fu Ge'er wants to follow His Royal Highness Ling Yan, if His Royal Highness Ling Yu succeeds, he will have the merit of being a dragon. You can get your ancestral title back.
The title of Pingguo Gong is hereditary, although it is temporarily taken away, but as long as the time is ripe, it can still be returned. If Fu Ge'er really gets the merit of the dragon, there is a chance that the title will be returned. It's just that if you want to get this skill from the dragon, where is it so easy. It's been a hard road. It can even be life-threatening at any time. It's just that her brother has already made a decision, and she can't stop it.
The road to winning the heir is very difficult, not to mention that Fu Ge'er has experienced danger several times. Even His Royal Highness Ling Yu almost died several times. What frightened her the most was that His Royal Highness the eldest grandson actually poisoned His Highness Ling Yu. almost let His Highness Ling Yu die at his hands.
Ziyi asked incomprehensibly: "Madam, the county lord is the teacher of His Royal Highness Ling Yu. Why didn't the county lord help His Royal Highness Lingyu. "If the county lord can come forward to support His Royal Highness Ling Yu. There will definitely not be such a fierce battle above the court.
Meng Xuan shook her head: "His Royal Highness Ling Yu is just my aunt's nephew, not my aunt's son. "If it is my aunt's son, it will naturally support His Royal Highness Ling Yu's ascension. But it's just a nephew, but it's impossible to do everything in your power to support the top. With the merits of my aunt. No matter who is in power, they have to respect her in the end. Instead of getting involved in the succession and suffering endless troubles.
Ziyi nodded, indicating that she understood.
Life is hard. I have to have a good time, too. She was very happy to hear that her eldest sister followed her brother-in-law into Beijing. My brother-in-law stayed in Hanlin Academy for three years, and he has been released all these years. It's the first time I've come back.
The sisters have been separated for so many years, and there should have been countless things to say. But as soon as the eldest sister saw her, she said with a depressed face: "Mengxuan." I handed over the post and asked to see my aunt, but I couldn't see her. "My husband came to Beijing to get a better job. But the Tong family couldn't do it. She wanted to take her aunt's path, but it was blocked.
Meng Xuan was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "My aunt lives in a simple place, except for Wencheng waiting for them, no one else can see her." β
The eldest sister talked to her a lot, hoping to ask her to help her move around. They have not been in the capital for a long time, and they are not familiar with the capital. She is the wife of the prince of the Guogong Mansion and has a wide range of doors. I hope she can help.
Meng Xuan smiled bitterly when she heard this. She is not very transparent about things in the officialdom, but seeing that her eldest brother-in-law has been in office for so many years, but she is not as high as her younger brother, she knows that there is a problem. She specially asked Brother Fu about this.
Fu Ge'er also told him that the eldest brother-in-law is good at reading, but he is not popular. After many years as an official, his political performance is not outstanding, and his assessment is barely good. The temperament is not harmonious, and he has the arrogance of a scholar. Over the years, the ascension has completely relied on qualifications.
Meng Xuan heard the eldest sister say that she wanted to stay in the capital, but she didn't reply directly. The official positions in the capital are all radishes and pits, it's not that she can't find it, it's just that she has to ask Brother Fu about this matter. Meng Xuan called her younger brother Fu Ge'er and told him about it.
Brother Fu shook his head: "Second sister, don't worry about this matter." The eldest brother-in-law's temperament is not suitable for staying in the capital, otherwise, he will definitely be involved in the whirlpool. "Now that the competition for the reserve is fierce, it is safer to take a foreign appointment.
The eldest sister didn't know Fu Ge'er's hard work, but she thought that she and Fu Ge'er didn't do their best for them. When I finally left, I couldn't see her.
She only smiled wryly.
After Fu Ge'er found out, he smiled coldly: "Second sister, don't feel sorry for her, it's not worth it." She has been thinking a lot about herself since she was a child, and she just wants us to help, what has she done for us over the years? As the eldest sister, where is there a trace of the consciousness of the eldest sister. In Fu Ge'er's impression, Menglan has never done a thing for his family. After getting married, he devoted himself to his husband's family. There is nothing wrong with that. But after three years of marriage, the days of returning home are numbered. also because of the second sister's rich dowry, it was very sour. I didn't think that the second sister would have a hard time marrying into a high school and needed a dowry to support the faΓ§ade, but she said to her mother that the dowry was uneven. At that time, he was cold to this eldest sister.
Meng Xuan sighed in her heart when she heard this. The dowry is indeed uneven, and her dowry is twice as much as that of the eldest sister. But this unevenness is not caused by the mother, but by the aunt. Because of this, the eldest sister has always felt uncomfortable. But you can't blame your aunt for this, and your aunt is also trying to save face for her. After all, the wife of the prince of the Guogong Mansion, one hundred and twenty-eight dowries is not much. She also relied on a rich dowry and her aunt's face to live a relatively smooth life in the Guogong Mansion. Otherwise, I don't know what my life will become.
Fu Ge'er heard Meng Xuan say that the dowry was uneven, and snorted coldly: "Why is the dowry uneven, she doesn't know." But she still lingered on this matter for so many years. The third sister also has the same dowry as her, but she doesn't say a word. She felt wronged. She dared to complain about her aunt's injustice, if it weren't for her aunt, she wouldn't know what to do.
Meng Xuan also knows that if this thorn is pierced, I am afraid that it will not be able to be eliminated for the rest of my life. But fortunately, the little sister didn't have any dissatisfaction with this. Still very close to her.
Meng Nan's marriage was facilitated by Meng Xuan. At that time, their family was actually in a very embarrassing situation, so Mengnan's marriage was a little difficult. Later, Meng Xuan chose this family, the man's family is not high, but the family style is very good. And this man is generous and motivated by nature. After Meng Nan got married, her brother-in-law was only a famous showman. Later, he was admitted to the exam, but he was not admitted to the Jinshi. This brother-in-law didn't have the heart to be an official, so he was an old gentleman at home. Speaking of which, the three sisters actually had the most comfortable life for Meng Nan.
