Chapter 281: Secret Collusion
Originally, my grandmother planned to pay for Shen Mengyi to fill the vacancy in the house, but unfortunately, Mingyuexi also heard the conversation between the two, so she naturally couldn't allow her grandmother to wade into such troubled waters.
"Grandmother, don't take her word for it." Mingyuexi put her hands behind her back and looked indifferent.
It seems that she is in a good mood today, but she can also meet Shen Mengyi here, which has become the most unlucky thing, and in this case, she will attribute it to bad luck.
"Why are you here! It's really annoying to me! Shen Meng got up from her grandmother and looked at Mingyuexi with disgust, she didn't do good things to herself once or twice, naturally she had a deep grudge.
"Don't do that." Grandmother patted Shen Mengyi's hand and signaled her not to be so hostile to Mingyuexi.
"If you can be here, why shouldn't I?" Mingyuexi raised her eyebrows, but didn't take Shen Mengyi's words to heart.
"Me? Can you compare with me? Gently shaking off her grandmother's hand, Shen Mengyi didn't show weakness at all, but she realized that she still needed to rely on her grandmother to help her, so she had to take a step back in front of her, so as not to make her in a dilemma, "Don't say why you're here, it's just that it's not your turn to care about what grandmother wants." ”
"Naturally, I shouldn't be in charge of what my grandmother wants to do, I'm just kindly reminding you that today's vacancy is like a bottomless pit, which will only make you fall deeper and deeper and unable to extricate yourself." Ming Yuexi shook her head, looking a little helpless.
Grandmother is not a confused person, hearing Mingyuexi say this, and Shen Mengyi was speechless, she also knew it in her heart.
"Grandmother originally planned to help you, but if you think about it, although she can help you this time, she can't help you for a lifetime, and you should learn to solve the problems you provoke yourself." Grandmother stepped forward to hold Shen Mengyi's shoulders and said earnestly.
Grandmother knows this very well, if she helps Shen Mengyi once, there will be countless more times, until she causes trouble to the point where she can't fix it, it is better not to interfere from the beginning.
"Grandmother ......" Seeing that her grandmother was also shaken, Shen Mengyi felt very uncomfortable, but now she was the only one she could rely on, so she had to continue to pretend to be wronged.
"Yiyi, you're not too young, you can't always rely on your grandmother, right?" Grandmother patted her on the shoulder, her eyes full of distress, but it was only about that.
Children are naturally sad as elders when they are wronged, but if they always know that they have something to rely on, they will never grow up.
"Grandmother, you don't know how much I have been wronged in this mansion, and the second prince doesn't love me, he only focuses on the 'wife' at home, how can I ever have anything in my heart?" Knowing that her grandmother was easy to be soft-hearted, Shen Mengyi began to pretend to be pitiful, and even when she talked about things in the house, she always had to describe herself as the most aggrieved one.
When Xia Nanfeng was eccentric to Liang Rumeng, she also deliberately accentuated the word "wife", as if to say that she was different from Liang Rumeng, so she was often angry with her, but she had no place to complain.
Seeing that her grandmother's expression became more and more solemn, Shen Mengyi couldn't help but secretly rejoice, fortunately, this matter is not a sure thing, there is room for reversal, it's just ...... This Mingyue Creek is also too infuriating.
Her eyes rolled slightly, and Shen Mengyi decided to say something "nice" to stimulate Mingyuexi, who told her to hear the grievances she had suffered and be so indifferent.
"I knew that even if I married Gu Yanbai as a concubine today, it would be better than marrying the second prince as a side concubine now......" Shen Mengyi's tears came as soon as she said that, and she lay on her grandmother's shoulder and sobbed.
Grandmother comforted her and stroked her shoulders as if she were coaxing a child.
"I advise you to be cautious in your words and deeds, otherwise this word will spread......" I don't know if what Shen Mengyi said touched her brain or heart, and made Mingyuexi say these words uncontrollably.
"Spread it? Naturally, my grandmother and I wouldn't spread this word to others, so who else would tell it to others? Shen Mengyi wiped away her tears, and instantly transformed into a high-minded appearance, as if it was not her who was crying and begging for alms just now.
"Yiyi!" Seeing that Shen Mengyi was becoming more and more willful, her grandmother couldn't help but stop her.
"Grandmother, why are you always looking at her!" Shen Mengyi pursed her lips, looking extremely aggrieved.
"I really don't know what kind of ecstasy soup she poured into them, all of them are towards this outsider!" She thought so in her heart, but she couldn't say it, otherwise it would only make her grandmother even more unhappy.
"Grandmother has always been helpful and not helpful, you know." Grandmother shook her head, telling Shen Mengyi not to think too much, let alone blame all this on Mingyue Creek.
There was nothing wrong with this, but when I heard it, Shen Mengyi's ears changed.
She thinks that the reason why her grandmother said "help Li Li and don't help relatives" is that she thinks that Mingyuexi is the one who is reasonable, so she doesn't help her granddaughter, but it can be said that whoever is reasonable, but let her admit that Mingyuexi's Li is bigger than herself, and Shen Mengyi definitely does not rely on them.
"If you think I'm unreasonable, just say it." Shen Mengyi withdrew her hand, hurriedly gave a salute to her grandmother, and left angrily without waiting for her grandmother to stay.
On the way out of the house, a woman dressed as a maid suddenly stopped her.
"Miss?" The man called cautiously, as if he was not sure if the person in front of him was the young lady in his memory.
Shen Mengyi turned around when she heard the voice, and saw that the woman's face was very familiar, like ......
"Miss!" The man hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and after being helped up by Shen Mengyi, he excitedly took her hand, and hurriedly said, "Miss, I'm Liu'er!" ”
"Liu'er......" Shen Mengyi thought for a moment, remembering that when she was in the mansion in the past, there was indeed a servant girl who served her, and she was called Liu'er.
"Is that you?" Shen Mengyi smiled faintly, but felt that time passed so fast, in the blink of an eye, she had become the second imperial concubine, and she was no longer the little girl who loved to play with people in the mansion before.
"It's the slave!" Seeing that Shen Mengyi finally remembered herself, Liu Er was overjoyed, she was naturally happy that her master had become the second imperial concubine, but her current situation was not very good, "Miss, since you left, I can no longer be reused, and I will only be placed in this mansion all day long to do some idle and boring work." ”
Liu Er was unwilling to be sent to and from place like this, and heard that the old master had come to the Hou Mansion, so he waited here.
"Even if you don't get reused, I can't ask them to slap you in the face like this!" Shen Mengyi showed a look of hatred on her face, but she didn't plan to take Liu Er back to her mansion, she just tightened her hand and said softly: "I will teach you a lesson to those bullying guys in the mansion, so you have been by my side for a while, haven't you?" ”
"Miss......" Liu Er shook her head, she didn't mean that.
"I know what you want to say, now that you stay in the Hou Mansion, I will treat you well, but you have to keep an eye on someone for me, Mingyuexi." Shen Mengyi comforted Liu Er a few more words, and when she saw that she agreed with what she said, she pointed to Mingyuexi, who was talking to her grandmother, "Everything related to her must be reported to me in time." ”
