Chapter 178: Chen Menghui's troubles

"Madam, the young lady is here." A middle-aged grandmother came into the room to report.

"Let her in." When her daughter-in-law came to visit her, Mrs. Chen was quite surprised.

Mama listened to Madame's words, turned around and went out to lead the young lady in.

Xie Yuer came in and saw her mother-in-law saluting, and called "mother" with a very sweet mouth.

"Come and sit." Mrs. Chen patted the seat next to her.

There are two maids fanning the wind next to it.

Xie Yu'er nodded, walked over and sat down.

"Why didn't Meng Hui come with you?" Mrs. Chen looked at her.

"Back to my mother, Brother Meng Hui has something to do, so he didn't come to visit his mother with Yu'er." After Xie Yu'er finished speaking, her face showed an aggrieved look.

Seeing this, Mrs. Chen immediately asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Xie Yu'er shook her head and didn't say anything.

At this time, if she said it, it would make her seem petty.

Although she didn't say anything, Mrs. Chen also knew, and Mrs. Chen, who pursed her mouth, smiled.

"Mother knows that Meng Hui didn't go to your room last night, so go back and talk about him."

Xie Yu'er nodded: "Thank you, mother." ”

"Okay, it's cool today, so I'm not going to go for a walk in the garden with my mother."

Xie Yu'er nodded: "Okay." ”

So a group of people went to the garden.

The two of them were tired of walking and resting in the small pavilion, and after a while, a servant came over, still holding a plate of snacks in his hand.

"What kind of snack is this, and why have I never seen it?" Mrs. Chen looked at the dim sum and asked the person who delivered the dim sum.

"Mother, this is what Brother Meng Hui asked the cook to learn from a woman today, Yu'er has already tasted it, it tastes excellent, mother, you can taste it." Xie Yuer answered first.

"Yes, it's a pastry that cooks learn today. has not yet started to sell, and the shopkeeper Chen asked people to send it to the house for Mrs. and Master to taste. The servant then told Mrs. Chen.

After listening to the subordinates, Mrs. Chen looked at her daughter-in-law in front of her, picked up a spoon and dug a small piece and put it in her mouth.

Xie Yuer watched her mother-in-law eat, and when she saw her mother-in-law's happy expression, she laughed along.

"Mother, isn't it delicious?"

"Indeed, this must be a good seller." Mrs. Chen's first thought was to make money.

A businessman is a businessman, and he thinks about how to make money everywhere.

"Whose woman is so talented, I really want to see it." After Mrs. Chen finished speaking, she saw that her daughter-in-law's face was not quite right, and asked with concern, "Yu'er, what's wrong with you?" ”

"Mother, you want to see that woman?" Xie Yu'er looked worried.

Her appearance made Mrs. Chen feel very strange, couldn't that woman see it? Or is there something untold? Or is that the woman ...... Thinking of this, Mrs. Chen didn't dare to think about it, so she could only ask Yu'er.

"Yu'er, tell your mother, does that woman have anything to do with Meng Hui?"

Xie Yu'er lowered her head, she seemed to acquiesce to what Mrs. Chen said.

Mrs. Chen understood, and instructed the people around her: "You all go down." ”

The subordinates all retreated, and Mrs. Chen and Xie Yu'er were left in the pavilion.

"Yu'er, you must know something, tell your mother."

Xie Yu'er raised her head, her eyes moist.

"Mother, Yu'er also just learned that the woman is the country girl. The country girl that Meng Hui's brother took special care of before, and that woman is still a person with a husband. ”

"What? A married woman? Mrs. Chen didn't expect her son to be so ridiculous that he would hook up with a married woman.

No, she couldn't let this continue.

"Yu'er, don't worry, your mother will deal with this matter, you just treat it as if you don't know anything, your mother is from here, at this time you can only pretend that you don't know anything, and be a virtuous wife."

Xie Yu'er nodded: "Yu'er knows, thank you." ”

"Okay, you go back, my mother will talk to Meng Hui." Mrs. Chen held her hand and expressed reassurance.

Just become a son of his own family, like this, a woman will be sad.

After Xie Yu'er left with the people, she felt very comfortable and instructed Xiaocui beside her.

"Xiaocui, you go to the kitchen and order sour plum soup, it's hot and stuffy this day."

"Yes, young lady, the slave and maid will go." Xiao Cui saw the young lady smile, and she was also happy.

……

After Xie Yu'er left, Mama came over.

"Where is the young master now?"

"Mrs. Hui, the young master is in his yard now." Mama replied.

"Then let's go!"

Mama nodded, and followed Madame to the young master's courtyard.

"Madam, the young master shouldn't do that kind of ridiculous thing."

Mama couldn't help but speak for the young master, after all, the young master was raised by her. The young master has always been a good boy who is calm and sensible. How could it be possible to get along with a married woman.

"Meng Hui, this kid I know, naturally I won't do that kind of ridiculous thing." Mrs. Chen smiled at Mama.

Mama looked at her wife and quickly understood.

Mrs. Chen saw that Mama understood, and then said: "Meng Hui has been an obedient and filial good boy since he was a child, and he will definitely not have that kind of relationship with that country girl, at most, he likes her cooking skills, and Meng Hui is the most concerned about business." ”

"Madame is right, the young master must be because of that country girl's cooking skills."

"It should be a cooperative relationship, but I still have to tell him that I can't snub my new wife because of business." Mrs. Chen sighed after speaking.

"Madame is right." Mama nodded.

Soon, the two came to Chen Menghui's courtyard.

Speaking of this courtyard, I wanted to get the new house here, but Chen Menghui refused to do it, saying that he couldn't handle business matters with peace of mind.

This is what the Chen family eats, and if the business is not good, it will be unfavorable.

So after discussing it, they arranged the room for the two of them in a small courtyard not far away.

Mrs. Chen followed Mama in, and when she saw that there was no one in the courtyard, she frowned.

"Why don't you have a single subordinate?"

"It should be the young master who asked them to retreat." Mama replied.

Inside the house, Chen Menghui heard the voice and got up and came out.

"Mother, why are you here?"

"Come and see you." Mrs. Chan smiled.

Chen Menghui didn't speak, and helped his mother in. Then he poured his tea, then sat down and looked at his mother.

"My mother won't come to see the child for no reason, there must be something."

Mrs. Chen smiled: "There is indeed something. ”

"What's the matter?" Chen Menghui asked.

"I heard you didn't go to Yu'er's room last night."

As soon as Chen Menghui heard this, it was Xie Yuer who said it. Looking at his mother in front of him, he looked embarrassed.

"Mother, I was really busy last night, I read the account books all night."

"My mother doesn't understand business matters, but my mother is a woman and a person who has come over. I understand Yu'er's mood very well, her husband will disappear on the second day of the wedding, and she will feel very comfortable, these are not important, what matters is what the next person thinks of her? Have you thought about it? ”

Chen Menghui was silent and spoke after a while.

"Mother, I know how to do it, and I won't let such things haunt you in the future."

After listening to her son's words, Mrs. Chen laughed.

"By the way, today Mr. Chen sent a new pastry, my mother tasted it, and thought it tasted very good, and it will definitely sell well when the time comes."

"If my mother likes to eat, I'll send someone to fetch some more."

"Okay, give your sister a taste then." Mrs. Chen finished with a smile, then remembered the country girl, and asked her son tentatively, "Son, I heard that this pastry was taught to the cook by the country girl." ”

Chen Menghui frowned when he heard this, and looked at his mother suspiciously.

"Mother, how do you know?"

"Don't think that your mother really doesn't know anything if she doesn't go out, you just say yes or no?"

"Yes." Chen Menghui nodded.

"Mother knows that you are in contact with that woman because of business matters, right?"

Chen Menghui is not stupid, he knows that his mother is testing him by asking this question.

"Mother, don't doubt it, I don't have anything to do with that woman, I just went to her cook, this time Shopkeeper Chen bought her pastry for two hundred taels, and there should be no contact in the future." Chen Menghui felt that he needed to be quiet, and if he continued like this, he would be in trouble first, and it would be a little troublesome at that time.

"That's good, you try to make time to spend more time with Yu'er." Mrs. Chen was relieved.

Chen Menghui nodded: "Mother, I may have to go out in a few days, and you will take more care of Yu'er's mother when the time comes." ”

"Why do you have to go far away? How long is this time? Can't you just not go? Mrs. Chen felt that he was newly married, and it was not good to go out like this.

"Mother, you know, I've only taken over for a few years, if something goes wrong at this time, my father will definitely take back the rights in my hands, and when the time comes, I will definitely hand it over to the illegitimate child who is outside, mother, do you want to see this?"

Mrs. Chen was silent, this was a thorn in her heart, and it was also her pain, she naturally did not want the Chen family's family business to fall into the hands of outsiders, and the Chen family's family business must be her son Meng Hui's.

"Son, you can go with confidence, Yu'er's mother will help you take care of it, but how long will you come back this time? If it's too long, it's better to take Yu'er with you. ”

"It won't take long to go, at most a month or two will be back."

"So long? Then you talk to Yu'er and appease her. "If Mrs. Chen didn't think it would have been long before, but now that her son is married, she feels that two months is too long, Yu'er should be dissatisfied!

"Mother, don't worry, I'll go and explain this to Yu'er."

"That's good, okay, my mother will go back, and you will accompany Yu'er when you are done." Mrs. Chen stood up after speaking.

"The child is sending you." Chen Menghui followed and sent her to the door.

When Mama saw Madame come out, she immediately stepped forward, and then the two left.

The smile on Chen Menghui's face disappeared as he watched his mother leave.

For Xie Yuer, he is really disgusted. Even if you investigate behind the scenes, you still use this kind of thing to bother your mother.

Thinking about it, he was angry, but angry was angry, he still had to appease Xie Yu'er and prevent her from doing some messy things.

Raise your feet and go to find Xie Yu'er.
