Poor family mother and son

Chapter 497 My Heart Is Waiting

Meng Yueyue and Lei Xiaopao caught the attention of Chu Yuan and the others. Shui Duanfu gestured to Xiaobao with his eyes, indicating that he had something to say.

There are so many children today, it's really hard to find a chance to talk alone.

So, Xiaobao ordered: Eat what you haven't finished eating quickly, and go to enjoy the lotus!

Because of eating at noon, many people in the city went home to eat, and the streets were not so crowded.

The children started on the road again, heading for the west city gate.

Chu Yuan isolated Xiaobao behind him, giving him a chance to listen to the information.

"That girl is the second wife of the Meng family. She is 13 years old this year. Meng Xiansheng revealed her intention of getting married to the Fourth Young Master Yao, one of the Siyas in the prefecture, but for some reason it was nothing..." Shui Duanfu followed the Meng family recently. Tell Xiaobao the news.

Chu Yuan turned his head and glanced at Xiaobao and Red Dragonfly. It was so dazzling that he couldn't help it.

Chu Yuan said: "It's nothing? Then she insisted on falling on you today. Could it be because of your idea?"

Xiao Bao shivered: "I'm only ten years old!"

Chu Yuan: "The girls are not very big."

Gan Lai: "Aspirations do not lie in age."

Xiaobao: "..."

Chu Yuan: "..."

"May [-]" continued: "We can't get any more information about that girl, you know, their girls don't come out very often;

Also, the one your guards followed just now is called Lei Xiaopao, the servant of Erfang Mengyong, and he has kung fu. "

This is interesting.

The girl wrestled in front of Xiaobao twice, probably because the girl wanted to "touch porcelain", so why did her father's servant secretly follow?

If it was for mother and daughter, shouldn't they be blatantly following?

Xiaobao: "I'm just wondering, why do you feel like a praying mantis catching a cicada and a oriole behind?"

Because it is the "Lotus Viewing Festival", along the way out from the west gate, you can see several calligraphy and painting works displayed side by side at intervals, which just played the role of guiding the way.

This is the "Painting and Calligraphy Exhibition" held by the students of Qinggang Academy in response to "Praying for the Disaster".

All the calligraphy and painting works are made of silk provided by the Meng family free of charge as canvases, which can be described as extremely high-grade.

Most of these works are created on the theme of "Daxuan Mountains and Rivers" and "Plucking Lotus". There are meticulous paintings, ink paintings, and calligraphy of various schools.

Some students are not proficient in painting, so they show their talents in the form of poems and songs.

Every once in a while, you can see groups of three or five students criticizing each other's works, and then carry out the operation of "you praise me, I praise you, praise yourself".

Most of the students wore the uniforms of Qinggang College, and a few did not, such as "Fucheng Siya."

The works of "Fucheng Siya" are displayed side by side.

Meng Xiansheng is really talented. He not only created the painting "Listening to the Lotus Pond", but also copied the poems about lotus separately as calligraphy works for display.

The calligraphy and paintings of the students are mostly vertical, but the two works of Meng Xiansheng are both banners, which can be used as road signs and convenient for many people to stand in front of and appreciate.

However, each of the "Sanya" works in a vertical format, and only Meng Xian wins two, which are horizontal, which is particularly prominent.

Could it be that this is the demeanor of "the head of the Four Elegances"?
Moreover, Meng Xiansheng cast his eyes into the distance from time to time, lingering non-stop, making the other Sanya feel that he was absent-minded.

Do you really think that you are the "head of the four elegants" and don't even bother to stay with us?All three of them were dissatisfied in their hearts, but none of them showed it.

Fourth Young Master Yao couldn't help asking: "Brother Meng, are you waiting for someone?"

Meng Xiansheng quickly came back to his senses: "Oh, I heard that my cousin came out to play today, but I didn't see it. I don't know who is accompanying me. I'm a little worried."

Hearing that his "cousin" was mentioned, Fourth Young Master Yao stopped asking.

No one knows that Meng Xiansheng puts so much effort into writing and painting that he wants to take advantage of today's "Lotus Viewing Festival" to have an "unexpected encounter" with Xiaobao, and then use calligraphy and painting as a guide to have a good relationship with Xiaobao. Treasure "intersect irreversible".

Of course, there is also the factor of the cousin - he does not want to see the cousin.

According to what his father said, Second Uncle intends to marry Chu Qing, which neither he nor his father want to see.

My father always said that my second uncle was not smart enough, but in Meng Xiansheng's opinion, he was the smartest person.

It depends on what he does, he will never do anything he worries about, of course, his father will not allow him to do it, but he never advises on the family business, and never supports a penny when he is short of money, but the benefits are half Take a lot of silk.

Let the big house do all the work, and their second house eats and drinks hot food, and asks them to consider the interests of the family, marry with the big family, and revitalize the business, but they push back and hold back, and even talk about Meng Yingying.

If the second uncle and Chu Qing were allowed to join the in-laws, needless to say, it would be beneficial to their second wife, Chu Qing's status alone would make the family value the second wife.

Because his father, Meng Chun, failed to invest in Wu Jichang, the former governor of Beizhen, he not only contributed a lot of money, but even his daughter.

Up to now, Meng Yingying still keeps the dowry alone without contacting her natal family. There is a farm of more than 500 mu in Kyoto and several shops.

As a businessman and a family head, Meng Chun's performance has been getting worse and worse in the past few years, and distrust in the family has gradually risen and is getting worse.

Therefore, even if the investment is clear, it is still necessary to invest in a big house.

In order to avoid one day in the future, their second wife would compete for the title of Patriarch: even if he could inherit, he would still be under the control of the second wife. After all, he was an uncle, and he was not easy to be disobedient as a nephew.

Fortunately, the women in their second bedroom are all stupid, which adds a lot of resistance.

The second aunt interfered with the intention of marrying various merchants, which made the family dissatisfied with the second room.

And that cousin, as stupid as her mother, was crying every day and refusing to marry.

what's the point?
The Meng family is well-clothed and well-fed to support you. Food, drink and fun are closely related to your expenses. Do you know that none of the boys in the family are treated like you?
Why let the family spend so much money on you for nothing?Isn't it just to form a marriage that will benefit the Meng family in the future?

Otherwise, you girls, do you think you have anything worth making the family pay so much?

Since you are a member of the Meng family and enjoy the best life, you should be conscious of fighting for the interests of the family, and that is also your responsibility!
Look at the man of the Meng family. Didn't the family arrange some kind of marriage, so he married happily?Who ever made a fuss like you!

They can't lift their shoulders or hands, and think that they have learned a lot of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting since they were young, and they can't look down on anything at home?

To put it bluntly, as far as your mother's dowry shop is concerned, you can't figure it out, so there's nothing to be hypocritical about!
Look at other sisters and sisters, don't they all marry when they should?Which one who is not married is still living in luxury?Even as a concubine, no one is hungry!
