Chapter 172: Family Ugliness (2)
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other, only to feel a chill in their backs, and Meng Xiyue almost fell.
Zhu Qing's hands couldn't help but tremble a little, and he slowly sent the medicine over.
The strong smell of medicine spread, a cold light appeared in Meng Xiyue's eyes, and she retreated to the side of the bed again and again, yelling angrily: "I don't drink it, none of you can force me to drink it, I don't drink it!" ”
Zhu Qing was stunned by her yelling, and hurriedly glanced back at Zhu Lu. Zhulu swallowed her saliva and instructed the mothers-in-law behind her: "What are you still doing?" Didn't you hear your master's command? ”
When those mothers-in-law heard this, they immediately stepped forward one after another and held Meng Xiyue firmly down, making her unable to move.
Zhu Lu took the medicine bowl in Zhu Qing's hand and said to Meng Xiyue: "Miss did such a shameless thing, don't blame our master for being ruthless." If you don't say it, the slave will really be unkind. ”
Meng Xiyue couldn't break free, she was so anxious that she bared her teeth, and said with red eyes: "You dare!" ”
Zhulu chuckled, and her heart was obviously open: "As long as the master is ordered, the slave and maid have nothing to dare to." ”
Meng Xilan looked at the frightened Meng Xiyue coldly, and the thoughts in her heart turned quickly, who is it? Who is the person Meng Xiyue hooked up with behind her back? It shouldn't be Zhou Shili, she doesn't have a chance.
"The third lady arrives at the ......" Someone suddenly passed the word outside the door, breaking the deadlocked atmosphere in the house. When Feng Shi entered the door, he was shocked, looked at Meng Xiyue, and then at Meng Xilan, and said in surprise: "Lan'er, you are ...... this"
Meng Xiyue desperately held back the tears in her eyes, finally saw the rescuers, and shouted: "Mother save me, mother save me, sister, she wants to kill me." ”
When someone came to get the prescription just now, Feng Shi was a little worried, thought for a while, and decided to come over and have a look. Sure enough, Xilan's child is ruthless, and he has to find out.
"Lan'er, this decoction is very strong...... It's better to forget it first. Feng didn't feel sorry for Meng Xiyue, but the doctor said that she was weak, and if she forcibly killed the fetus in her womb, she might be worried about her life. No matter how poor she is, she is also the child of the Meng family, the blood of the master.
Meng Xilan gave Zhu Lu a look, and Zhu Lu immediately put the decoction aside and retreated silently with Zhu Qing.
Seeing this, those mothers-in-law also let go of Meng Xiyue, and Meng Xiyue immediately rushed over, reached out and overturned the decoction on the table, making it all over the ground, and almost splashed on Meng Xilan's dress.
Meng Xilan frowned slightly, looked coldly at the bowl of decoction that had been spilled, and said lightly: "It's a pity, such an expensive medicine is in vain." Zhulu, you send someone to cook another bowl over. ”
"Yes......" Zhulu was a little confused about the master's thoughts, but still nodded again and again.
Meng Xiyue's body shook, turned her head to look at her, bit her lower lip tightly, and her eyes were full of resentment.
Feng Shi was also a little surprised, only to hear Meng Xilan say in a tone that was neither salty nor light: "If one bowl is not successful, another bowl will come, what I have is patience." ”
Feng Shi glanced at Meng Xilan in surprise and fear, but did not say anything, but walked quietly to her side.
Meng Xilan smiled at her: "Erniang, if you can trust me, leave this matter to me." ”
Feng nodded hesitantly: "Of course...... Of course Erniang can trust you. ”
Obviously, the current situation is greatly unfavorable to Meng Xiyue. She knew she was making a risky move, but when she found out she was pregnant, she decided to take a big gamble. After all, for her, it was the only chance she could find to turn around.
The child in Meng Xiyue's womb has been three months old. She thought that if he hadn't seen her for so long, he would definitely come to her, but for some reason, he didn't show up......
Meng Xilan looked at Meng Xiyue's uncertain eyes, and she could clearly feel that she was thinking about something. She was thinking about Meng Xilan's kindness to her in the past, although she had changed a lot since she entered the palace, but they were still sisters......
"Sister...... Sister ......" Thinking of this, Meng Xiyue suddenly knelt down, and then crawled to Meng Xilan step by step, hugged her legs, and begged bitterly: "Sister, Yue'er really knows what is wrong." Please, don't, don't hurt my child. ”
Meng Xilan was hugged by her and shook slightly, almost not standing firmly, she lowered her head, looked at Meng Xiyue who was crying, there was no pity in her heart, only deep disgust.
"Xiyue, this is what you brought on yourself." Meng Xilan took a deep breath and said, "Today, no matter how you beg me, I won't be soft-hearted." Unless, you tell me the truth. ”
Looking at Meng Xiyue, who was changing in front of her, her heart became more curious, and even a little nervous.
Meng Xiyue was still lying at her feet, silent for a while, before she said, "However, Xiyue can't say ......"
Meng Xilan was silent, and after a moment, she suddenly smiled faintly. "In that case, there is no way to do it."
The decoction was ready-made, and soon, Zhulu sent the decoction to Meng Xiyue again.
At this time, Feng no longer spoke for her. She didn't dare to be ruthless before, because she was worried that the master would mind. Today, if Meng Xilan is willing to do this, it can be regarded as helping him end a trouble.
"It's not too early, let's make a break as soon as possible." Meng Xilan bent down, reached out and patted her back gently, and said in a slow tone. "Yue'er is obedient."
While he was talking, someone came outside again.
Meng Xilan glared at the maid with a little displeasure, and only heard her say: "Master, madam, the second son of the Weiyuan Hou family is here." ”
"Huh?" Feng Shi replied puzzled.
For some reason, when Meng Xiyue heard this, as if she had been pardoned, she instantly stopped her tears, suddenly put on a fearless posture, and slowly stood up.
Meng Xilan was very concerned about these subtle changes in her, and her heart chuckled, as if she had thought of something?
Could it be him? Second son of Song?
If it weren't for the state funeral, Meng Xiqiao would have married into the Weiyuan Hou family by now and became the daughter-in-law of the Song family. It's a pity that she can't do it for the time being, but the relatives of the Meng family and the Weiyuan Hou family will not be affected by this, just wait.
Meng Xilan stared for a moment and asked, "Why did the second son come?" ”
The maid snorted: "I said it was to say goodbye to the old lady." ”
Meng Xiyue smiled suddenly when she heard this, and Meng Xilan immediately turned her head to look at her, "What are you laughing at?" ”
Meng Xiyue shook her head and only said, "With such a distinguished guest welcoming the door, shouldn't my sister go over and see it?" ”
When Meng Xilan heard this, she knew that she might have guessed correctly. This slut! She actually!
Meng Xilan tried her best to control the anger in her heart, clenched her handkerchief hard, looked at her and said, "What are you proud of?" ”
Meng Xiyue sat back on the bed, covered her body with a thin quilt, and continued: "Sister, I'm worried a lot, so far, where am I still in the mood. So be it...... The bowl of soup and medicine will be put away first, and when my sister comes back, if she still insists on me drinking it, I will definitely obey obediently. ”
Her hard work was not in vain, she finally waited for her backer, he would definitely save her from fire and water, and then give her a bright future.
Everyone was very puzzled, and thought that Meng Xiyue was overly frightened, so her spirit became abnormal.
Meng Xilan could hear the provocative meaning in her words, and she smiled coldly: "Okay, then let's make a decision." After speaking, she walked out of the door with Zhulu and Zhuqing.
Meng Xiyue lay on her back on the bed and laughed softly.
In the main hall, Song Wenyu, the second son of the Song family, was greeting Mrs. Meng and the two ladies in the family.
Mrs. Meng smiled with her eyebrows: "Get up quickly, get up quickly, it's rare for you to visit at home today, Xiqiao will be here in a while, you sit down and wait for a while." ”
The second lady treated him even more courteously, after all, he was his future son-in-law. The eldest lady's face was a little unpleasant, and she was a little jealous in her heart.
She had already heard that the sons of the Weiyuan Hou family were all outstanding and talented, and now that she saw it with her own eyes, it was indeed worthy of her reputation.
In the face of the greetings of others, Song Wenyu just smiled slightly, nodded politely, but only replied to Mrs. Meng: "Actually, I came here today to discuss something with the old lady, I don't know if I can talk to you alone?" ”
"Oh?" Mrs. Meng was slightly surprised, but still nodded in agreement. "Absolutely."
The others retreated in amusement and went back to their places. Coincidentally, Meng Xilan arrived at this time. When Song Wenyu saw her, her expression changed slightly, and then she leaned over and saluted: "Greetings to Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”
This is the second time Meng Xilan has seen Song Wenyu, last time he just glanced at Xiangguo Temple in a hurry, but now that he looks closely, he only feels that his eyebrows and eyes are slender, and he is really a little distracted.
"Childe, please get up. I just heard people say that Childe is here for something, I wonder if I can sit down and listen together? Meng Xilan tried her best to remain calm, but her eyes were as sharp as thorns, and she couldn't wait to pierce the false disguise on his face.
Song Wenyu hesitated slightly, and then said seriously: "Actually, I shouldn't have come forward to do this today, but I think it's important, so I should come here in person, so as not to make you worry too much." ”
Meng Xilan looked at his eyes, and her face became gloomy little by little.
After that, Song Wenyu's words were enough to make the world ashamed of him. But even if he is so shameful and unreasonable, he can also speak seriously and in a correct manner.
Mrs. Meng was so excited that she almost didn't knock over the teacup in her hand, she glared at Song Wenyu angrily, and was so angry that she couldn't speak: "You...... Are you here to humiliate our Meng family today? You ......"
Song Wenyu shook her head, still unchanged and said: "I know, this is not in line with etiquette, but the child in her womb is indeed mine." My marriage contract with Miss Xiqiao has been decided, I will not regret it, I just want Miss Xiyue to follow me back to the house first in the name of a concubine. ”
Meng Xilan couldn't listen to it anymore, so she stood up and provoked Song Wenyu to stand up with her: "Your Highness......"
Meng Xilan has always known how to control her emotions, but now she is almost on the verge of losing control. "Don't you think! When you do such a shameful thing, you still have the face to come to the Meng Mansion to say what kind of concubine you want...... Let me tell you, our Meng family absolutely disagrees! ”
After saying this, she hurried away.
Mrs. Meng slapped the table and said, "Come on, send off guests!" ”
Meng Xilan returned to Meng Xiyue's room, Zhu Lu and Zhu Qing knew that she was angry, and hurriedly said: "Master, be careful of your body, don't act recklessly." ”
Meng Xilan couldn't care about these things at this time, she walked into Meng Xiyue's room, walked to her bedside, and slapped her twice. "Shame on you!"
Meng Xiyue knew very well why she was beaten, although the corners of her mouth were bleeding, she still smiled and said, "It seems that my sister knows all about ......"
Meng Xilan beat her palms painfully, and said angrily: "I know, I knew who you were early on." ”
Meng Xiyue smiled again, sat down with her body propped up, and stroked her lower abdomen: "Sister, this child is my lucky star." ”
