The Road to Doting Wife

Chapter 36 Marrying a wife is like fighting a war (2)
She always wanted to ask Meng Zhongjing, but if she really asked, how would Meng Zhongjing answer?Faced with Ru Niang's tenderness, can't help it, or can't bear to refuse a poor woman's parting plea?She asked so what, she saw with her own eyes that he wanted another woman, and heard with her own ears that he promised to marry someone else, and he married without any explanation. He was no longer the honest and honest Meng Zhongjing she knew, no matter what happened that night For whatever reason, he is gone.

That Meng Zhongjing who would clumsily please her is really dead.

Ah Ju covered her face and cried for the last time for the memories of those childhood sweethearts.

Ning took her into her arms and patted her on the shoulder lightly: "Ah Ju, don't hate or complain, at least when he treats you well, you know he is sincere and you are also very happy, right? You just You need to tell yourself that the Meng Zhongjing you liked is dead, you will never get his explanation and you don’t need to get it, you can continue to like him and miss your childhood sweetheart, but these have nothing to do with Meng Zhongjing who married another woman , understand?"

Ah Ju cried and nodded.She understands, really understands.

Ning smiled, straightened her up, and wiped the tears off her face: "You are still young, so it's understandable for you to think about it for a while, but look at me, I was abandoned by my childhood sweetheart and married a man I didn't like. Isn't that right?" Still come here? Some things fade after a long time, and when I think about it after a few years, I will laugh at how I liked such a person back then, and how I was hurting myself for so long. And you, in my opinion, are just a child , how can you understand true love?"

Ah Ju lowered her head in embarrassment.

Ning Shi gave her time to calm down, and then asked her: "You said that there are so many couples in the world, how many of them are together because they like each other?"

Ah Ju's heart skipped a beat, are you finally going to mention marriage?
Ning Shi was amused by the guard in her eyes, patted her hand and said: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I didn't come to force the marriage. To be honest, if Cheng Yuan wasn't my own son who was brought up by me, it would be just because of his treatment of you. I want to beat him for those threats and offenses, and I will never come here for him."

Ah Ju was a little surprised, not only surprised that Zhao Chen had said everything to Ning Shi, but also surprised by Ning Shi's attitude.

Ning continued to laugh and said: "My son, before he bullied you, I really didn't find any major shortcomings in him. I just told you that I have a complicated relationship with Chengyuan's father, but Chengyuan is very good at it. He loves others, and he has been on my side since he was a child. His father is not at home all year round. He studies hard, practices martial arts, and does business. He grows up like a young eagle day by day. I used to protect him, and now he protects me. If Speaking of shortcomings, he is ruthless outside, but I don’t blame him at all, because there are only our mother and son here. If he is not ruthless to others, others will steal his business. He is also very stubborn. Master Wu asked him to practice for an hour He has to practice until he is exhausted and wants to do his best in everything."

Ah Ju listened quietly, without saying a word.It's really outstanding that Zhao Chen can support a family at such an age, and she never thought he was useless, what she didn't like was his character.

Ning seems to have guessed what she was thinking, and lowered her voice: "Ah Ju, he bullied you, do you think he has bad conduct?"

Ah Ju lowered her eyes and was pondering her words when she heard Ning continue: "You may not believe it, but Cheng Yuan is a very self-disciplined person. The young master with the same qualifications as him has a housekeeper at the age of thirteen or fourteen. The maid who arranged for him was quite pretty, but he never had that kind of thought. If there was a maid who behaved frivolously, he immediately asked me to change to a new maid, and he didn’t go to that kind of place outside. Later, as he got older, I began to worry about his marriage, and asked him what he thought, and he told me that he wanted to marry a girl he liked, that she would be the only one in his life, and that she would not be wronged."

Ah Ju pursed her lips.

If Ning Shi just said this, she probably wouldn't believe it, but now, she believes that Ning Shi is not the kind of person who deliberately lies and praises her son.

But what did that matter to her?If you don't like it, you don't like it. If he is not good, she will be tempted. Besides...

Ning suddenly spoke and interrupted her thoughts: "Ah Ju, don't tell me whether you believe it or not, I, a mother, can't believe it completely. Cheng Yuan is only seventeen this year, and he still has a long way to go. It will be more prominent in the future than it is now. At that time, can he stick to his promise? He can guarantee it, but I can't guarantee it for him, even if he is my son. But I must say that Chengyuan is very self-disciplined and will not take it easy Bewitched by women. Ah Ju, the only thing Auntie can guarantee is that Cheng Yuan really values ​​you, but he is as strong and stubborn as his father, and he can't tolerate being rejected. The more you ignore him, the more he will find ways to marry you go home."

Ah Ju's heart tightened, and those cold phoenix eyes appeared in front of her eyes, and she couldn't help begging in a low voice: "Auntie, can you persuade him for me? I really don't want to..."

Ning smiled helplessly: "Don't be afraid to offend me. This is because Chengyuan did something wrong. He deserves to be hated by you. Aju, Auntie likes a good girl like you, and hopes to have a daughter-in-law like you, but Auntie doesn’t force you on feelings. Whether Cheng Yuan can do what he wants depends entirely on whether he has the ability to impress you. As for Cheng Yuan, it’s not that I don’t want to persuade you, but it’s because he has too much idea, and no one cares about what he decides to persuade Use. Aju, be careful yourself, that child, you have never been unable to do what you want to do. If you can avoid him, I will see his jokes. If you can't avoid it, you will eventually marry the Zhao family. You Don't be too sad, Auntie will stand by your side after you enter the door and never let him bully you."

Speaking of which, it's a bit of a joke.

Ah Ju's face was hot.To be honest, it is a blessing for any girl to meet a mother-in-law like Ning, but it is a pity that her son...

Ning didn't want to force Aju to give an answer, so she stood up holding Aju's hand and said, "Okay, Auntie should go, Aju quickly pick me a pot of orchids, let's hit it off, I'm willing to bet, bet I have to give it."

One sentence resolved the uneasiness in Ah Ju's heart, and Ah Ju smiled lightly, and went out to choose flowers with her.

Taking a pot of Jianlan Junhe from Aju, Ning returned to her own village after half an hour.

Zhao Chen had already come out to meet her when he heard the movement of the carriage, and when he saw Wen Wenmei coming down with a pot of orchids, he showed doubts.

Ning said as she walked: "I won this with Ah Ju, Chengyuan, tell me, should I put it in the hall or in the bedroom?"

Zhao Chen smiled softly: "There are already many famous products in my mother's house, but there are not many in my son's house. This mother should reward me."

Just open your mouth, you have a really thick skin.Ning glanced at him, but ordered Wenmei to send the orchid directly to the young master's room.

The mother and son were seated outside, Zhao Chen thoughtfully poured tea for Ning Shi, Ning Shi took a few sips slowly, seeing her son, the old god, sitting aside and watching her, he couldn't help but wondered: "Why are you not worried at all, you don't want to know her Did you agree?"

"Then did she agree?" Zhao Chen asked casually.

"No." Ning said immediately, followed by a smile: "Because I didn't propose marriage to her at all, but I helped you with everything I could. It's up to you to make her marry willingly. Don't expect me to be with you." bullying people."

Zhao Chen didn't take it seriously, and jokingly said: "Mother is really biased, your daughter-in-law hasn't entered the house yet, so you help her deal with her son first."

Ning didn't smile, and looked at him suspiciously: "Let me propose a marriage and don't care about the result, what are you planning?"

Zhao Chen smiled and said nothing, after a while seeing Ning's frown, he got up and said: "Mother, take a break, I still have things to do, don't worry, I know what's in my mind, I won't go too far." After saying that, he turned around out the door.

With him like this, Ning Shi was worried, but so what, just as she told Ah Ju, this son has big ideas.

Zhao Chen strode back to his yard.

Jin Shu and Jin Mo's two maidservants were looking at the orchid newly sent by his wife in the room. Jin Mo was bold and stretched out his hand to touch the petals of the orchid that hadn't fully bloomed. There was an angry shout: "Who allowed you to touch it? Get out!"

The voice was so familiar that it couldn't be more familiar, but the anger was something the two maids had never experienced before.Jin Shu immediately bowed his knees to salute, and then walked out quickly.There were tears in Jin Mo's eyes, and he bowed his head tremblingly to admit his mistake: "Master, calm down, I will never dare to move again..."

"From now on, all the inner rooms will be handed over to Jin Shu, and you are not allowed to take a step further." Zhao Chen ordered in a cold voice without even looking at her.

Jin Mo's legs were weak, but these years of serving had made her familiar with this man's temperament, she didn't dare to intercede anymore, and withdrew with a blank face.

As the footsteps faded away, Zhao Chen turned his head to look at the door curtain, pondered for a moment, and soon returned his attention to the orchids on the table.

This is her flower.

The man's stern expression softened, he walked to the table, looked down at the flower, but imagined in his mind that she watered the potted flower every day, and would look at it as intently as he does now, a trace of tenderness gradually rose in his heart, and in a flash, he imagined After getting married, he would stand behind her, hug her waist and watch flowers with her.She looks at flowers, he looks at people.

If only she was by my side now.

Zhao Chen leaned over and smelled the fragrance of orchids.

He still remembered that when he leaned her against the wall and pressed her against her that day, there was a vague fragrance on her body, but he didn't know if it was from her hair or from her daughter's body.If she liked him, would she just close her eyes and kiss him obediently?The smell of her red lips...

As if bewitched by the orchid fragrance, the thoughts in his mind became more and more charming. Zhao Chen sat on the kang with his back against the wall. After he calmed down, he continued to turn his head to look at the flowers.

I don't know what my mother said to her, no matter what, she should understand now that he really wants to marry, and he is definitely not lying to her with rhetoric.

Whether to propose marriage or not, there is only one result.

Soldiers first and then soldiers.

Three days later, Zhao Chen went to the river again.

Lin Chongjiu ran over from afar, and before he got there, he noticed the difference, "Brother Zhao, why are you carrying a bow and arrow? Are you going hunting in the mountains again this afternoon?"

Zhao Chen didn't stand below waiting for him like before, but sat on the horse. When Lin Chongjiu arrived in front of the horse, he smiled and lowered his head: "It's not afternoon, but we are going now. We don't practice today. Jiu went to the mountains to open your eyes, how about it, do you dare to go?"

"Dare!" As a little man, Lin Chongjiu immediately replied loudly in the face of such a provocative invitation.

Zhao Chen stretched out his hand towards him, ready to pull him onto the horse.

Just as Lin Chongjiu was about to stretch out her hand, her mother's stern exhortation suddenly came to mind, her arms seemed to be heavier than usual, Lin Chongjiu's face turned from red to white: "Brother Zhao, I want to go, but my mother won't let me go to the mountains Play……"

Zhao Chen laughed loudly: "Brother Zhao is with you, what are you afraid of? Come on, let's go to your house first, I will tell my aunt personally."

Lin Chongjiu was overjoyed, without any hesitation, he passed his little hand over.

Zhao Chen easily lifted the man onto the horse, put his legs between the horse's belly, and walked towards Lin's house in a familiar way.

He wants her to think about him all day.
