Chapter 356: Trouble
"Xiang Zi, what are you talking about there?" Mei Ruoqing frowned, looking at Mei Xiangzi, and the woman beside him who was full of grievances, what kind of system did she mutter at this time?
"Dad, it's nothing, Meng Yao has just suffered some grievances, and it's not a good thing." Mei Xiangzi pulled the woman beside him behind him, with a smile on his face, and Meng Yao was also very cooperative, standing behind Mei Xiangzi, just frowning, full of pity.
At this time, this kind of affection was revealed, and the eyebrows were like sharp swords, "Do you feel wronged when you marry my Mei family?" Also, coming to the Mei family to be a concubine is indeed not as good as the head lady of other people's families, and it is wronged. β
"Master, Meng Yao doesn't mean this, Meng Yao can marry into the Mei family, it is Meng Yao's blessing, and being able to give birth to a son for Young Master Xiang Zi is a blessing that Meng Yao has cultivated."
"Then you are still wronged?"
"Dad, Meng Yao knew today that she could participate in the banquet for Xiao Ge, she was very happy, and she deliberately dressed up more grandly, but her sister-in-law just reprimanded her, saying that she was enchanting and charming, and she didn't have the bearing of the Mei family at all, and Meng Yao was not allowed to talk more, Meng Yao felt wronged, but her son had already said that she was today, no matter how wronged she was, she had to bear it, and she didn't have to show it back, which disturbed everyone's interest."
Mei Xiang Zi helped his concubine explain, but the more Su Nian listened to it, the more it was not a taste, if this matter came out of Meng Yao's mouth, at most it would be a discord between female dependents, but Mei Xiang Zi was really interested, if he said it, it would be different.
Now that Mei Xiangzi had already spoken, Mei Ruoqing turned her gaze to Lin Yan'an on the side, "Xiang Hua's daughter-in-law, but is this the case?" β
Lin Yan'an glanced at Su Nian. Su Nian did not run away, but also looked straight at her. I couldn't help but feel a shock in my heart, and then slowly spoke. "Dad, my daughter-in-law did say that, the children are all at today's banquet, Meng Yao wants to dress ceremoniously It is kind, but the monthly distribution in the second room is not appropriate, and Meng Yao's clothes are not in line with the low-key rules of our Mei family."
Lin Yan'an also left some space for them to observe before continuing, "That's why my daughter-in-law kindly reminded her, as for asking her not to speak." Dad, what day is it, how undignified it is to laugh like this, the children all see it, don't you let these children learn? Sister Wei and Sister Ling are already older, so you can't let people say that the girls of the Mei family have no rules in the future. β
Meng Yao's face was blue and white for a while, she lowered her head and was silent, she didn't expect Lin Yan'an to leave no face for the second room at all, this is not right. If it were a normal day, Lin Yan'an would not have done such a desperate job, what happened today?
"Xiang Zi, the matter in your room. I don't want to say more, you're such a big person, you should know what to do. This dress is ......, and it really doesn't look good. Mei Ruoqing lowered her head. I took a sip of the water in front of me and took a sip ......of tea. Su Nian directly changed it.
Mei Xiangzi's face was a little ugly, and he turned his head and glared at Meng Yao, "Look at what you did!" Dare to complain to me? Don't stand aside yet! β
Su Nian frowned, is it really enough, or is it that the more wealthy people are, the more commonplace this kind of scene is? It's still good for the Xiao family, refreshing and simple, if you want her to frame me one day, I'll denounce you, Su Nian feels that she has already quit.
"Xiang Zi, where is your daughter-in-law?" Mei Ruoqing found that the hostess of the second room was not there at all, and her brows furrowed even tighter.
"Dad, my daughter-in-law is late." As he was talking, Zhao Wanpei walked in with two sons and a daughter with a smile, picked up Mei Ruoqing's words, and bowed down to Mei Ruoqing.
"When Wan Pei just came from his mother's place, he remembered that the gift he prepared for his younger siblings fell in the yard, so it would be too late, and I hope my father will forgive me."
Mei Ruoqing naturally didn't say anything, and he didn't mention the previous things, the banquet of the Mei family, the two sons took their daughter-in-law to sit at one table with Mei Ruoqing, and the rest of the concubines and children sat at another table, Zhao Wanpei saw Su Nian sitting next to Mei Ruoqing, his eyes flashed, and he didn't speak.
There is nothing to say about the Mei family's banquet, all the famous chefs in Liao are invited, and the wine is hot, as if the relationship between everyone is more intimate, Mei Xiangzi and Mei Xianghua and Xiao Ge have clinked glasses many times, as if they have really become a family, but Su Nian knows that no one in this is serious.
"Uncle ......", Su Nian was helpless, and asked Mei Ruoqing to put down the wine glass with a disapproving look for the Nth time, "You can't drink." β
Mei Ruoqing pursed her lips, "Not at all?" β
"Nope." Su Nian didn't have any room here, she continued to push the water glass over, "Don't think I'm troublesome, I want to make your body recover." β
"But you can't even drink wine, so what's the point?"
"That's interesting! At least Brother Xiang Zhong won't be sad, you can still marry him a daughter-in-law, watching the grandchildren gradually increase, do you mean it? β
Mei Ruoqing stopped talking, and stretched out her chopsticks to pick up the braised pork.
"Uncle ......"
Mei Ruoqing almost cried, "This is not good? β
Su Nian shook his head, "I'll make a list for you tomorrow to make sure you like to eat." β
Lin Yan'an has been silently observing the interaction between Su Nian and Mei Ruoqing, she was surprised, Mei Ruoqing's status in the Mei family is supreme, no one dares to challenge, even her mother-in-law can only sulk with herself, who dares to go against her father-in-law?
This Shen Sunian dared, this is not good, that is not good, before the little uncle Mei Xiangzhong was also worried about his father-in-law's body, but his father-in-law didn't care at all, he did whatever he wanted, but he didn't expect Shen Sunian to be able to persuade him?
A meal can be regarded as a happy meal, at least the face is harmonious, Lin Yan'an's heart finally relaxed.
Suddenly, there was a commotion on the other table, followed by the cry of a child, Su Nian quickly turned around to look, and saw that it was not Brother Ping who was crying, so he was relieved.
It was a boy who was crying, Su Nian found that Zhao Wanpei looked nervous and hurriedly left the table to check, probably the boy who was howling with his mouth open was her son.
"What's wrong with Brother Yuan? How do you take care of it! Zhao Wanpei became angry at the slaves around him and held the boy in his arms to comfort him.
"Mother......, mother, I want beads, you said that grandpa said that he would give it to me." Brother Yuan cried so much that he didn't have an image, pulled Zhao Wanpei and pointed to the opposite side and continued to howl.
Sitting opposite Brother Yuan was Brother Ping, who was cushioned, and the little guy stared at Brother Yuan with his eyes open and blinking, thinking why he was crying? Su Nian noticed that Brother Ping'er was holding the beads he got from Mei Ruoqing in his hand, which was very bright and conspicuous.
Zhao Wanpei also saw it, and his eyes flashed again, "Okay, okay, Brother Yuan'er doesn't cry, it's my brother's, don't you also have one." β
"No, no, I want it, it's all mine, mother, you said that those will be given to me! I want it, I want it! Brother Yuan didn't listen at all, he was obviously five or six years old, but he was like a three-year-old child.
Su Nian saw that Brother Ping was involved, and he also got up and prepared to go over, but was stopped by Mei Ruoqing, "Daughter-in-law Xiangzi, what is Brother Yuan crying about?" Crying like this at a good banquet, could it be that you teach your children like this on weekdays? β
Zhao Wanpei was a little embarrassed, and while whispering to appease Brother Yuan, he took the time to reply, "Dad, it's okay, it's okay, the children are playing." β
Who knows that Brother Yuan cries louder, as long as he cries on weekdays, his mother will give him anything, he likes these beads, and his mother also said that these are very valuable, and they will definitely be left to him in the future, why did grandpa give other people's children? He is the grandson of the Mei family!
"Okay, okay, Brother Yuan'er, my mother will go back and give you a better one." Wan Pei was sweating, and complained a little about how Brother Ping took out the beads at this time.
"I don't, I just want that, mother, you bring it to me." Brother Ping is just a child, pampered until now, where to know how to stop.
The people at Mei Ruoqing's table all heard the truth, and they all noticed the beads in Brother Ping'er's hand, and the little guy's fleshy little hand was in his hand, and his face was full of confusion.
"Daughter-in-law Xiang Zi, bring Brother Yuan over." After Mei Ruoqing spoke, Zhao Wanpei had no choice but to lead Brother Yuan over, his face full of worry.
"Brother Yuan, tell Grandpa SΓΉ, why are you crying?" Facing his grandson, Mei Ruoqing did not speak sharply at the beginning.
Brother Yuan'er had tears and snot on his face, where can he take care of his image when the child cries? Seeing that Mei Ruoqing asked, she sobbed and said, "Mother said, the beads in my grandfather's place are all left for me, why is it in his hands?" β
This "he" refers to Brother Ping, Su Nian asked Yueniang to bring Brother Ping over, held him in her arms, and touched his head, she was afraid that Brother Ping would be scared when she saw this kind of scene.
"But grandpa has already given it to Brother Ping, he is a younger brother, will you let him?"
Mei Ruoqing patiently explained to Brother Yuan, although he felt that what Zhao Wanpei said to Brother Yuan was wrong, but he didn't have an attack immediately.
As a result, Brother Yuan didn't feel his father's eyes at all, and when he heard Mei Ruoqing say that he gave it to Brother Ping, the cry that had just stopped broke out again, "Don't, grandpa, I'm your grandson, Brother Yuan likes it, why did you give it to someone else." β
Mei Ruoqing's face darkened, and he just wanted to slap the table, when there was an extra glass of water in front of him, he turned his face to look at it, and saw Su Nian's sweet smile, "Uncle, you are usually calm, if you are angry, you will have to drink another bowl of medicine today." β
"The medicine is bitter, not good." Brother Ping didn't know how to catch it, so he lowered his head and continued to play with his beads, without lifting them, looking very attentive.
Mei Ruoqing's anger that had just risen dissipated inexplicably, and he picked up the cup and took a sip of water, "Daughter-in-law Xiangzi, these night pearls were given to me by the King of Liao, I gave one each to Brother Yuan and Brother Han, and I gave the rest to Brother Ping, Brother Ping is young and has just arrived in Meifu, so I have more pain." β
"Yes, yes, it's the daughter-in-law who didn't teach well." Zhao Wanpei should admit it, but she was a little unwilling in her eyes, that box of night pearls is worth a lot, and it is not an exaggeration to be the heirloom of their Mei family, the old man said that he would give it to people? That's their Mei family's property! (To be continued......)
