Chapter 31
Besides, after Meng Yu handled the storage of medicinal materials, he brought Meng San back home.

"Ah, Miss, Master Meng is back." A maidservant at the outer door saw them coming in, turned around and ran back while shouting at the top of her voice.

Meng Yu paused, why did he feel like he was being greeted by someone when he went to those places of fireworks?
He looked up, and there was a golden nanmu plaque hanging on the top of the red vermilion lacquered gate, with the words 'Meng's Mansion' inscribed on it.

The concierge bowed to salute, and greeted warmly: "Master, you are back."

Well, he just said that he didn't go home for several months, so he didn't even go to the wrong house.

It turned out that the maid who didn't know where she came from had no rules.

He walked in with a sullen face, whether it was the boy or the mother-in-law, they all saluted and greeted him politely when they saw him.

When he entered through the hanging flower gate and walked around the screen wall, he almost bumped into a beautiful young lady in a costume who was full of fragrance and fragrance.

He subconsciously held his breath, and took two quick steps back, only to look at the Fourth Miss of the Liu family who was wearing a water-red padded jacket, a double snail bun with gold hairpins and ruby ​​pearls.

He felt that he was used to Yu Wanniang's mother and daughter's simple and elegant attire, and he was not used to seeing this heavily made-up beauty suddenly.

"Lu'er greets brother-in-law." Liu Hanlu looked at him shyly and timidly, staring at him delicately: "Brother-in-law has worked hard."

If she hadn't called 'brother-in-law', she would have been like a wife who loves her husband and is on the go.

Meng Yu's former wife was Liu Ruowen, the legitimate daughter of the Liu family.

At the time of the marriage proposal, the master of the Liu family was also a member of the Ministry of Rituals, Wailang, a fifth-rank official, in charge of ceremonies, and a teacher of concubines. Although his official position was not high, he had a lot of money.

It's a pity that Mr. Liu's heirs are not well-connected. With one wife and two concubines, there are only one legitimate son, one legitimate daughter, and five concubine daughters.

However, the son-in-law was still weak and sick, so he was worried that marrying a daughter-in-law would be a display, and finally asked Mrs. Meng to show his sincerity.

It's a pity that Mrs. Liu is not lenient, and before she finally died, she wanted her concubine to be her successor.

The Liu family and the inner house are all under the control of Mrs. Liu, and the daughters of the concubine live in fear, worrying that one day they will be randomly matched by the aunt.

Like Miss Liu Er, she just didn't want to marry to be her stepmother to fill in the house, so she was promised by her aunt to the tea emperor, Mr. Jin, to fill in the house.

You know, Mr. Jin was almost forty at that time, only a few years younger than his own father, and all the sons left by his original spouse had already married and had children.

Ms. Liu Er definitely doesn't want to, she will start dying right away.

While the aunt had someone beat the second young lady's biological mother, she also had someone give her scissors, gold, and hemp rope, and let her choose how to die at will.

He also said that if the mother and daughter go together, there will be a companion on Huangquan Road.

In the end, Second Miss Liu didn't have the courage to commit suicide, and since her mother was still in the Liu Mansion, she had to be respectful and filial to her aunt after she got married. Otherwise, not only her mother would suffer, but if she herself If you say you are not filial, you will not be able to gain a firm foothold in your husband's family.

Master Liu acquiesced, one was because his wife had already talked to someone, if he objected, it would offend the Jin family instead.

After all, for the Jin family to become an imperial merchant, besides having a good relationship with the Lord of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, who knows what backing they have in private?

Furthermore, the Jin family gave a lot of betrothal gifts, and the gifts they gave in private were even sent to the hearts of their husband and wife.

Seeing that his father is unreliable and can only rely on his wife's face to live, now the other concubines and daughters are much more well-behaved.

Ms. Liu San may have a genetic mutation and looks a bit ordinary. After Mrs. Liu was sure that Meng Yu didn't like her, she found a good match for her and married her off.

The rest of the fourth and fifth misses are all delicate beauties, and the fourth miss is also gone this year. Knowing that the family that my aunt gave me to see is just the concubine of my father's colleagues, I feel that it is better to marry my eldest brother-in-law to fill in the house. Decided to give it another go.

For example, if she can 'accidentally' bump into his arms now, then she can take the opportunity to yell, and she may succeed.

But Fourth Miss Liu didn't expect him to retreat so quickly, and she didn't give herself a chance to rely on him at all.

She began to wonder how likely it was that she would 'fall' on him now.

Seeing her restless eyes staring at him, Meng Yu couldn't bear to say anything more to her: "Miss Si, do whatever you want!"

It's not that he was indifferent to his relatives, but he was really afraid of this young lady of the Liu family. She knew that she had never meant anything to her in this regard, but she dared to say in front of her son that she had never said anything about her relationship because she wanted to take care of their father and son. .

Facts have proved that as long as she feels that what she said is true, even if it is false, others will think it is true after hearing too much.

It's like Mrs. Meng thought that her son really fell in love with him and told him to marry him home quickly. After all, Miss Liu Si is not young anymore.

Immediately, Meng Yu was stunned: "I don't mind if you want to marry another one for grandpa or a younger one for dad, but don't think about me marrying her in."

Then, he took people to collect the medicinal materials.

But when he calmed down, he also knew that he was at fault for this matter.

I should have spoken clearly to my mother-in-law early in the morning, instead of knowing what they were thinking, but still worried about my dead wife and son, I didn't speak clearly, so that they still had delusions.

He understood that his mother-in-law was worried that if he married Miss Gaomen again, he would neglect his son when he had another child, and he was also afraid that the wife he married again would treat his son badly.

But Meng Yi is not only her grandson, but also her own eldest son, and also the first eldest son of the Meng family, so she will definitely be nurtured well.

Besides, I haven't remarried in the past few years, isn't it just to wait for him to grow up, and after I remarry, my son can live separately, so as to avoid too much rouge in the inner courtyard.

Seeing him finish speaking, Miss Liu Si left without looking back, stomped her feet angrily and disregarded her manners, and asked the maid who came over in a low voice: "Aren't I amazing enough today?"

"Miss is naturally extremely beautiful today." The servant girl hurriedly flattered: "I'm afraid Master Meng was in a hurry to meet Gao Tang, so he left in a hurry."

Miss Liu Si rolled her eyes, and thought of another good idea: "I remember that Xiao Yi and Young Master Qin went out of the house earlier, right? You go to the porter and keep an eye on it. When he comes back, I will go see brother-in-law with him."

The relationship between Meng Yi and her family is also good. This time, her aunt also told herself in private that she has already persuaded Meng Yi, and he will help her in.

Now that the eldest brother-in-law has returned home, he must be cleaned up. After he drinks a few more glasses of wine, his chance will come.

She took a deep breath and knew in her heart that if she entered the door like this, she would be looked down upon by the Meng family.

But she really had no other choice, if she couldn't marry Meng Yu anymore, she would have to marry the concubine of her father's colleague.
