Chapter 173: Family Ugliness (3)
Meng Xiyue held her belly with both hands, Ying Ying smiled, and suddenly met Meng Xilan's gloomy gaze, and she immediately shrunk her body into a ball, for fear that Meng Xilan would suddenly hurt the fetus in her womb.
Meng Xilan turned her head, looked at the bowl of soup and medicine on the table, and said in a deep voice: "This evil obstacle cannot be left." ”
If she was allowed to enter the Hou Mansion, she wouldn't know what kind of thing she would do...... Perhaps, just like in his previous life, he deliberately wanted to kill everyone before he would stop.
Meng Xiyue trembled with laughter: "It's a pity, my sister can't be the master of this matter anymore." What I have in my belly is the child of the Song family, and only the people of the Song family can decide whether he is dead or alive. ”
She has tried all her strength to get to where she is today, and she is only one last step away.
"What are you proud of? Do you think you can replace Xi Qiao and become the new daughter-in-law of the Weiyuan Hou family? At most, you're just a concubine, nameless and pointless. Meng Xilan lowered her eyes and looked at her.
She's so calculating, she won't even be unclear about this in her heart.
The corners of Meng Xiyue's lips raised slightly, "No name and no part...... Sister, isn't I also nameless and pointless in the Meng family? My father doesn't like me, my grandmother doesn't love me, and even your sister is very indifferent to me. If I continue to stay in this house, I'll probably go crazy! So, I'd rather go to someone else's house and be a concubine than stay here......"
While talking, the maid beside the old lady hurriedly arrived: "Master Lan, the old lady invites you to come over and talk." ”
She came all the way and was out of breath when she spoke.
Meng Xiyue was the first to laugh: "Sister, look, you can't call the shots anymore." ”
Meng Xilan glanced at her and said coldly, "Don't be complacent too early." ”
Song Wenyu's sudden visit made everyone in the Meng family can't help but think about it.
Meng Xiqiao felt very lost, and when she arrived in the main hall, Song Wenyu was already gone, and she didn't even say a word to him. She couldn't help complaining, and then went to greet the old lady, but was turned away by her grandmother.
When Meng Xilan came over, Meng Xiqiao was still at the door and didn't leave, and asked the maid at the door in a low voice, "Grandmother, what's wrong?" ”
The little maid obviously couldn't say anything, only persuaded her to go back early.
Meng Xilan's face changed slightly, and she walked over.
"Sister Lan." When Meng Xiqiao saw her coming, her face was immediately full of smiles, and she ran over to hold her arm: "I heard that my sister is back, and I was about to go over to say goodbye." ”
Meng Xilan smiled faintly at her: "Grandmother and I have something to say, let's talk about it later." ”
Meng Xiqiao saw that her face was not very good-looking, and she was even more puzzled in her heart.
"Sister, why are you unhappy? What the hell is going on? ”
Looking at her curious wink at herself, Meng Xilan could only smile.
Pushing open the door of her grandmother's room, Meng Xilan immediately smelled a heavy fragrance. Yes, benzoin, it seems that my grandmother was choked by Song Wenyu's anger.
"Grandmother ......" Through the vague aroma, Meng Xilan called softly.
Old Madam Meng stroked her forehead with one hand, lowered her head and said, "Lan'er, come here." ”
Meng Xilan sat down as she said, and the others immediately retreated with great eyes, leaving only their grandparents and grandchildren to speak.
"Then Song Wenyu is a bastard, a concubine...... I think he's just here to slap our Meng family in the face. Mrs. Meng said angrily.
"The matter has come to this, it is better to kill the child in Xiyue's womb immediately, it is the most important." Meng Xilan said her thoughts in a flat tone.
"Knock it out right away?" Old Lady Meng's tone hesitated for a moment, as if she didn't want to make a decision so quickly.
Meng Xilan raised her eyes and looked: "Is it difficult, let her really give birth?" ”
"Of course not!" Mrs. Meng also thought that it was a sinister seed and could not be kept. It's just that Song Wenyu seems to have come with a heart. If the Song family also cares, I think the little marquis will definitely come to the door in person. ”
"Why don't you wait. Let's see what the attitude of the little marquis is. ”
Presumably, the Song family does not want such an ugly thing to happen, so they will definitely choose to settle the matter and make it a trivial matter.
"Grandmother, the matter has dragged on for too long, and Xi Qiao can't hide it." Meng Xilan expressed her worries: "She is still happily waiting to marry into the Song family, if she knows about it, she will not be able to stand it." ”
This secret cannot be kept, but it is only known sooner rather than later.
Her future husband actually had an affair with her cousin, and she was secretly married, which woman in this world can tolerate it?
"If you can't stand it, you have to take it! At the beginning, for this family business, how much effort did you have, you can't always use the bamboo basket to fetch water. ”
Listening to her grandmother's words, Meng Xilan understood in her heart that what she was most angry about was not that Song Wenyu was acting absurdly, but that her hard work had been broken in vain.
"What about the waste? What is the use of such a careless husband? If something like this happens, it is their Song family who is to blame. We have nothing to worry about. Meng Xilan held her breath in her heart, and simply thought of the worst.
At the beginning, she wanted to win over the Marquis of Weiyuan, in order to add contacts to the Meng family. But if the Song family does something that makes the Meng family embarrassed, then this relationship can also be said to be broken.
Mrs. Meng is old, and she still thinks it's better to think about everything in the long run. "Lan'er, just wait and see. A dignified Hou Mansion, the small ones are confused, and the old ones are not confused! ”
Meng Xilan's fingers tightened slightly, since her grandmother didn't agree, she wouldn't forcibly beat Xiyue's child. According to Feng, the child in her womb is three months old. Meng Xilan was very concerned about this matter. In other words, three months ago, Meng Xiyue was already involved with Song Wenyu.
How the hell did she do it? Meng Xilan was puzzled by this.
In her previous life, Meng Xiyue successfully seduced Zhou Shili with her delicate and harmless appearance, and it was still under her nose that Meng Xiyue once told her that she was confused for a while, so she made a big mistake. At that time, Meng Xilan missed the love between her sisters for many years, so she let her stay by Zhou Shili's side in the name of "concubine". As a result, this wrong step made a big mistake that could not be reversed.
Meng Xiyue seduced Zhou Shili because she gave her the opportunity to get close to Zhou Shili. And Song Wenyu is a complete outsider, Meng Xiyue never had a chance to see him, let alone go to his side.
There must be something wrong with this...... Big question.
Old Mrs. Meng saw that she was alone, so she said, "Xi Qiao, what should I do?" ”
"I'll go tell her." Meng Xilan replied without hesitation.
Her marriage has always been arranged by herself. If something goes wrong, it's up to her.
……
After dinner, Meng Xilan specially sent someone to send Meng Xiyue nourishing chicken soup, which was full of medicinal materials that nourished qi and blood.
Meng Xiyue saw this bowl of chicken soup, pursed her lips and smiled, and secretly thought about it in her heart. She picked up the bowl, scooped a spoonful and drank it, not worrying about anything greasy in it.
"Girl, the master has ordered it, if you have anything you want to eat, just say it."
The mothers-in-law who spoke fiercely during the day have become gentle now.
Meng Xiyue smiled when she saw this: "Okay, then I want to eat...... No, it's the child in my belly who wants to eat, Dongpo meat, Sixi meatballs, braised pig's trotters, stir-fried prawns, ......"
Those mothers-in-law were stunned when they heard this. That's too much.
Seeing them standing still, Meng Xiyue deliberately urged: "What are you still doing in a daze? ”
"Yes......"
The mothers-in-law retreated one after another, and when they arrived at the door, they couldn't help but turn around and spat at the back room: "Is it a serious master in the end." Once in power, it is so lawless. Bah! I thought I was really a princely lady, shameless! ”
They deliberately did not lower their voices, in order to let Meng Xiyue in the house hear it and embarrass her.
Who knows, Meng Xiyue didn't react at all, just lying on the bed alone, falling asleep through sleepiness.
At the same time, Meng Xilan came to Meng Xiqiao's room and sat with her to drink tea and talk.
There were several camphor wood boxes in Meng Xiqiao's room, which were filled with her dowry. Originally, everything was ready, but unfortunately, the wedding date had to be postponed temporarily, which made her feel lost.
Meng Xilan looked at the camphor wood box and said, "The dowry of the daughter's family is the embodiment of the status of the family in front of the mother-in-law's family. It seems that this time my aunt has put a lot of thought into it. ”
Meng Xiqiao smiled shyly: "Sister, don't say that...... Sister, you know, my father and my mother don't have any savings, and this is all thanks to you and grandmother. ”
"Xi Qiao...... There's something I want to tell you. Meng Xilan interrupted her and said, "After you listen to it, you may be very unhappy, sad, or even angry. But that's okay, when you're calmed down, you'll definitely find a way. ”
Meng Xiyue was stunned when she heard this, and she couldn't understand what she meant at all: "Sister, what did you say?" What do I have to do? ”
Meng Xilan gently put down the tea bowl and said quietly: "The way to retaliate." ”
"Sister......
"There is a woman beside Song Wenyu. The woman was also pregnant with a child, three months old. Meng Xilan said calmly.
"Huh? Pregnant? Meng Xiqiao couldn't react for a while, and was stunned for a long time before saying, "Is it the maid next to him?" ”
Meng Xilan shook her head: "No, it's Xiyue." ”
"Yuzuki? Which sunset moon? As soon as Meng Xiqiao asked, he suddenly thought of something, stood up and said, "You said Xiyue?" The third uncle's daughter, Xiyue? ”
"That's right, it's her."
Meng Xiqiao's face was full of panic, and he shook his head in disbelief: "Impossible! The second son didn't know her at all, and she didn't know the second son. ”
Meng Xilan's eyes lit up slightly: "How do you know that they don't know each other?" ”
"Of course I do...... I...... I don't know. Meng Xiqiao thought about it again and again, and finally had to change his words.
Song Wenyu hurried over during the day, for the sake of Xiyue, and he wanted her to be his concubine. To put it more bluntly, he also wants the child in her womb. ”
With Song Wenyu's identity, if it was just a dew marriage, he would not be so concerned, and he would not even hesitate to affect his reputation.
Before Meng Xiyue could finish speaking, she screamed in shock: "No, no!" What concubine? How could she snatch my husband! ”
Meng Xilan felt a little harsh, and couldn't help frowning: "You haven't married yet, and he is not your husband yet." If you find it intolerable, you can leave it at that. ”
Meng Xiqiao shook his head stiffly, and took a few steps back before saying, "Why? I don't quit the marriage, I can't quit! Everyone in the capital knows that we are going to get married, and if the marriage contract is dissolved, won't I be reduced to a laughing stock? Sister, you have to help me! ”
Meng Xilan knew that she didn't have the courage to withdraw from the marriage, so she said, "How do you want me to help you?" ”
"That kid can't stay, sister, help me!"
