Chapter 244 Strong Contrast
Although she was a little moved, Su Yiqing was still silent. It was easy to nod, but things in the future were really difficult. She asked herself that she might not be able to do it, so she didn't want to make a promise.
Even Yufeng had a clear look of disappointment on his face, but he said softly: "You don't have to rush to answer me, think carefully, but even if you don't agree, I will do my best to do my best."
...
In Meng Yan's room, Mrs. Meng softly comforted her daughter who had been restless for days, "Yan'er, it's okay, Prince Ding is just worried about your second sister."
Meng Yan held the handkerchief tightly and almost crushed the handkerchief. After a while, he said, "Mother, the second sister and Prince Ding have not gotten married yet. How could Prince Ding lead someone to control my Meng Mansion? I have been living in the mansion for a few days. This is too much... Yu Li is not in harmony."
Mrs. Meng took care of the hair on her head for her daughter and comforted her gently: "The Prince Ding did not control our Meng Mansion, but he was very powerful, and was afraid that some bad guys would take the opportunity to cause trouble, let alone what this is. The princes and ministers in the court have too many ridiculous things, so she said that General Shao's son is Shao Li. When you were a child, his sister had been to our house several times before and gave you some rare embroidery styles. Do you still remember? In order to marry a brothel singer, Shao Li led his soldiers to marry the future father-in-law's house, forcing his future father-in-law to make a letter to terminate the engagement, which caused an uproar in the court, and let the church go.
General Shao, who was not a son, was demoted to the third level and was demoted to the bitter and cold place. Shao Li was also sent to the border to be an ordinary soldier. Everyone thought that the Shao family was over this time. Unexpectedly, Shao Li bravely killed the enemy at the border and made great contributions repeatedly, so he made the Shao family back to the capital, and was more glorious than before. His marriage to the singer girl became a lie. The literati who had deposed him before changed to praise him. After all, this was just a little bit of a romantic matter, and it was not a sign of minor details. The emperor also said that if he had any, he would naturally be punished, and if he had any contribution, he would also be rewarded. If a man could do this, he would not be in vain."
Shao Li's story is widely circulated in the public, and Meng Yan naturally knows it. When the woman in the boudoir talks, she envies the singer. She can win the favor of the man so much. But these two things seem to be different. Moreover, the Shao family was severely punished and was promoted to the fore with military merits later. Could it be that Prince Ding would also be punished? Is their family the same?
After the Shao family regained its origins, the Yue family was always in the dark, saying that they would rather exile and marry a singing girl than marry his daughter. It was so irresistible that the daughter of the family must have something wrong with it. In the end, the family forced the family to send her daughter to the temple and could not stay in the capital.
The Meng family and the Ding Prince's Mansion have a huge gap, and her father was demoted to the third level again. She has never known the specific reason. Now that something happens to her family one after another, she is really worried.
Mrs. Meng felt sorry for her daughter's young age. She had worries like her back then. She felt that some things could not be hidden from the child. Let her know the truth, and at least part of the truth, so she simply said: "Yan'er, there are some things that my mother didn't want to tell you, but you are old now. You should be someone else's wife in two years. You have to know some things. Do you still remember your elder sister?"
When she remembered her elder sister, Meng Yan was a little disgusted. She still remembered how crazy the elder sister was when she was a child. Once, when the maid and the mother were not prepared, she pushed her young girl into Xiaochizi. Fortunately, the wet nurse kept following her closely and said, "I don't have an elder sister."
Mrs. Meng sighed and said, "Mother wants to tell you that from a certain perspective, your elder sister is also a poor person. She was young and her biological mother died, and she died so disgraceful. She suddenly fell from the clouds. People would go crazy. Before I got married, I heard that your father was so kind to your elder sister and loved his daughter. But after getting married, he would not say anything else, and he was lazy even when he saw your elder sister saying a few words. It was not applicable to the tiger poison and not eating children. You didn't understand it when you were a child. Now that you are old, think about it, your father has some protection for your elder sister?"
Meng Yan wanted to say that the eldest sister was vicious, but the eldest sister was only ** years old and was still a child. She followed the crowd and didn't know the truth of the matter. She was resentful to herself and her mother, but the methods were too fierce. The father did nothing except punishing her. He only asked someone to lock up her elder sister and watch her tightly. After a few years, he hurriedly married her elder sister. Later, he received the news that her elder sister died of illness. His father did not react much. The elder brother had several sons in the countryside, but his father never went to see her and did not let them come back. He heard that they lived a very difficult life, but his father only said that one man should support his family by himself, let alone that he gave them real estate to live in the countryside, and that he would live in enough food and food for the whole family, and he didn't have to worry about it.
If the elder brother and sister are resentful to their father because of their biological mother, and their father doesn't want to care about them, then what about the second sister? She doesn't know anything in the mansion these days and can't hear anything. Her father never cared about the second sister back then. He heard that the second sister came back just to marry the second sister.
It is said that the second sister has made a good marriage, but Prince Ding has several wives. Before she comes back, many people in the boudoir school were muttering to see if the partner of Prince Ding's engagement this time can be settled into the sedan chair...
"Mother, is the situation in the mansion really that bad?" Meng Yan didn't know why her mother mentioned these old things. In the past, her mother didn't mention them. Even the maids and mothers in the mansion would be severely punished when they knew about it. Why did her mother take the initiative to mention her father's faults this time? She shouldn't talk about her parents' faults? Her mother has been asking her to study and understand the truth. What's wrong today? Apart from the bad situation in the mansion, there seems to be no other reason.
"It's nothing, Yan'er, don't worry, mother is just..." Mrs. Meng looked at her daughter's beautiful face and sighed, "Mother just wants to tell you that the mansion is not as good as before. You should think more about things in the future, think more deeply about things, and be more polite to your second sister... In the future, although you are the legitimate daughter and your second sister is just a concubine daughter, you must not compare with sisters, otherwise the only one who suffers is yourself. Everyone has their own luck, and you can't look at it for a while."
Meng Yan was a little surprised. Her mother was hinting that she should not be jealous of her second sister? How could she be? Although there was an ignorant little maid muttering about her second sister's food and food in the mansion, and how much the maid respected her second sister's yard, but she was all ignorant. She didn't know that the second sister was in a bad situation. Even if she could marry, she would be a gentleman of Prince Ding, and her second sister was born in a humble background. Even if she was a princess, she would be very difficult in the palace.
"Mother, how could I be the one who has shallow eyes?" Meng Yan became a little angry after thinking about the current hint.
"Of course I know that my daughter is not such a sarcastic person, I just said it casually." Mrs. Meng smiled bitterly. Her daughter knew that she was not the one who was only caring about small profits and jealous for no reason. She was just a wealth and honor in front of her. With Prince Ding's unparalleled appearance, few women in the world would not be moved. In contrast, Meng's career was blocked, and the warmth of human relationships might lead to any setbacks in her daughter's marriage. These things will become more and more obvious in the future.
If Xiaofu lives a bad life in the future, it will be fine. But his daughter's marriage is a little worse, this comparison will really make people lose their temper. Of course, if Xiaofu lives a bad life, the Meng family's situation will be even more difficult in the future. At that time, it will inevitably lead to venting their anger. At this point, everything is really wrong.
These days, she saw what Prince Ding did and couldn't help but be shocked. With a woman's intuition, this was not like falsehood. Perhaps only Meng Ye, a martial artist, would think that others would spend so much effort to deal with him.
She didn't know what happened between Xiaofu and Prince Ding, and she didn't want to know. Any bizarre thing could happen in this powerful and powerful family in Yancheng. Perhaps Meng had no mistake in suspected that someone in the mansion had joined forces with outsiders to plot against him, but he suspected that he had the wrong partner. The one who joined forces with outsiders was not her, the wife, but his daughter who had been abandoned by him for many years.
Fortunately, I was very careful at the beginning and based on the attitude of harmony, I felt that I could only commit one less sin, so I didn’t offend this concubine’s daughter, otherwise I would have a headache today.
The mother and daughter were talking, but Madam Qing came, but she wanted to speak but stopped. Then she said that the shopkeeper of the silk shop outside had brought the clothes and asked the wife to go over and choose.
Mrs. Meng immediately understood, comforted her daughter again, and left.
She knew that the silk shop had sent clothes and materials to come today, but in the past, these people were waiting outside and sending clothes in. She only saw them when she had time. She didn't have to hurry for a moment, and she could even leave the clothes and materials. The next day, the people from the silk shop came to pick them up and didn't like them. This was obviously not easy for Madam Qing to say in front of her daughter, so she found this excuse.
After leaving the small yard, Mrs. Meng sent the maid away and walked slowly along the small stone road with Madam Qing. At this time, Madam Qing lowered her voice: "Madam, Madam Ping, the second lady's yard, came to report that she still couldn't find the maid Juzi. Seeing the second lady's spirit slowly recovering, she was afraid that the second lady would not know how to answer when asked. Although Prince Ding left, many maids and mothers were left to serve her. If those people heard nothing, what should you do?"
Mrs. Meng has not thought about this these days. She thought it was an accident earlier, but now it seems even more strange. She said, "Have you never asked about oranges after Miss Second has recovered from her consciousness?"
Madam Qing nodded, "Yes, I may be confused." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations, monthly votes, and your support are my greatest motivation.)
