Seeing Pei's question, Meng Han pondered for a moment, turned his head to look at Wu Wan, who was still weeping on the side, and then at Wu who was scorched, and then at Wu, whose face was burnt, and a thought suddenly came to him

Now that the matter has been solved, this has saved him a lot of tongue.

As soon as he thought of this, he lifted the hem of his robe, knelt down in front of Pei's feet, and said, "The son begs his mother to fulfill it." With that, he kowtowed.

As soon as these words came out, the whole room fell silent.

Then, Wu Wan's face suddenly turned red, she lowered her head shyly, but her heart was extremely happy.

The Wu family on the side was pale and didn't speak, but the eyes that looked at Meng Han were cold and unfamiliar.

Meng Han continued: "Today's incident was the son's fault, which damaged the name of the late sister, but now the plan is only if the son accepts the late sister, and the etiquette can be completed." A qiē is not a son's, but begging the mother to fulfill it. ”

Hearing this, Wu Wan's eyes were already red, she quietly raised her eyes, and glanced at Pei Shi without a trace, but saw that Pei's face was still gloomy.

Wu Wan's heart froze, and her face turned pale again in an instant.

After thinking for a moment, she moved the lotus step lightly, knelt in front of Pei Shi one step behind Meng Han, and said with shyness and tears: "Madam, Ah Wan doesn't want to drag down her brother-in-law, today's incident was originally a misunderstanding, and Ah Wan will leave early tomorrow morning, and she will never cause trouble to my sister and brother-in-law." ”

The sweet and delicate voice, sensible and polite words, all show the speaker's good upbringing and temperament.

Pei's expression on his face gradually slowed, and he turned his eyes to look at Wu Wan.

Wu Wan's words really spoke to her heart.

She actually knew the beginning and end of this matter for a long time, originally she thought that Wu Wan would rely on her in-law son to live or die, but now it seems that this is not the case, she first let go of her heart

Speaking of which, Pei's family didn't hate Wu Wan, if Wu Wan was a maid in the house, just looking at Meng Han's attitude at the moment, she would have agreed to open her face and put it in the second room. But on the contrary, Wu Wan is a son of a good family, or a side branch of the Wu family, she can't be a cheap concubine, she can only be a good concubine.

However, in the Han Dynasty, only those who were above the fifth rank and over the age of 30 could accept one good concubine, and two good concubines could be accepted above the second rank. These are all rules laid down by our ancestors, and if they are violated, they will be impeached.

Meng Han has just turned thirty this year, and he is old enough, but unfortunately he is only a sixth-grade official, and now he is at a critical juncture. For the sake of Meng Han's official career, Wu Wan can't enter the door, unless she sells herself and is willing to be a concubine.

Thinking of this, Pei glanced at Wu with some disgust.

If the Wu family didn't make trouble, this matter would have passed in such a daze, and everyone looked good, but at this moment, they had to come up with an explanation, it was not good for the girls of their relatives to be wronged.

Wu Wan's words were heard in Meng Han's ears, but they were different.

Every word is for the consideration of others, but regardless of her own grievances, if Wu Wanzhen returns to the Wu family's old house, I don't know how she will be wronged. The more Meng Han thought about it, the more distressed he became, and he felt that Wu Wan endured humiliation and burden, and the comparison between the two became more and more prominent Wu's coldness and ruthlessness, and Wu Wan's tactful affection was also conveyed.

Thinking like this, Meng Han couldn't help but feel agitated, and raised his head and said loudly: "Mother is above, this matter is what the son did wrong, how can he wronged his sister again?" Isn't this a mistake over and over again? The son doesn't want to be the unrighteous and ruthless person, and hopes that his mother will be perfect. ”

Wu Wan's face was suddenly red as if she was about to drip blood, she lowered her head delicately and gently, and her show bent a tactful arc, but she didn't say a word.

Pei glanced at Meng Han and said with some dissatisfaction: "Erlang, your current official position can't accept a good concubine, even if I want to fulfill it, I can't fulfill it." ”

As soon as her words fell, Wu Wan's graceful show froze suddenly, and then her face suddenly turned pale, and Wu, who was sitting on the side, suddenly snorted loudly, his eyes full of ridicule.

Wu Wan's time was like falling to the bottom, and his heart was already cold.

She actually forgot about this stubble, and thought that Meng Han was like Meng Yuan, it was okay to ask for a good concubine, but she didn't think that his official position was so low, and he couldn't even afford a good concubine.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but grit her teeth secretly, and a layer of gloom quickly floated on her pale face. No wonder the Wu family dared to make such a fuss, it turned out that she couldn't enter the door, so he simply made a fuss and ruined her reputation.

Wu Wan's face became more and more pale, and her heart felt as if she had fallen into an ice bucket. She will never be a concubine, especially under the hands of the Wu family, what future can she have as a concubine?

Meng Han was in a different mood at this time.

Hearing Pei's relief, he actually laughed, and said happily: "Mother is worried, but the son has not made it clear." In fact, the son only got the news today, and he will be transferred to the Ministry of Labor in the near future, and the son wanted to go back to his father in the evening, but now he is good at teaching his mother to be happy first. ”

Pei Shi was stunned at first when he heard this, and then his eyes lit up, and his face opened with a happy smile, and he even forgot about the troublesome thing that Wu made for a while.

Wai Lang is from the fifth grade, compared to Meng Han's previous official position, he has been promoted by half a rank, how can Pei Shi not like it, he smiled so much that the corners of his eyes narrowed, and said, "Ouch my son, this is true?" ”

Meng Han said with a smile: "It's true, the order will come soon, and my mother will be happy at that time." Thinking that he was not only promoted this time, but also able to hold the beauty, Meng Han was really happy, and he only felt that the happy things in life were just like that.

At this time, Wu Wan's and Wu's expressions were different.

A layer of red clouds instantly floated on Wu Wan's pale face, and her eyes drooped slightly like water, as delicate as a budding flower, and Meng Han was rippling again.

On the other hand, Wu Shi was stunned, his eyes straightened, as if he couldn't believe what was happening in front of him at all.

Pei's joy is really extraordinary, and he called people in one after another, saying that he was going to open the ancestral hall overnight to worship his ancestors, Meng Han persuaded her, and said with a smile: "Mother, now the son is from the official rank of the fifth grade, but Naliang is a concubine, the late sister was wronged today, the son doesn't want to miss her, and now he asks his mother to fulfill it, and the mother may be able to go down?" ”

Meng Han's promotion was the happiest thing for the Pei family, and at this time, seeing her son begging softly, she didn't have anything to do, and said with a smile: "Yes, yes." My son has his own responsibility, and my mother should be happy, so this matter is settled, and I will discuss it with your father when I go back, and then send a letter to the Wu family. ”

Speaking of this, she seemed to finally remember the Wu family, who had not spoken for a long time, so she turned to the Wu family and said: "Erlang's daughter-in-law, now Erlang is the green clouds, and he will be able to enter the phase if he can't say it, you, who are a wife, will enjoy endless blessings, and your cousin is a well-behaved and sensible person, and in the future, the two of you sisters will still be as affectionate and beautiful as before, isn't it good?" ”
