Rebirth of the Main Room Manual

Chapter 369
In the palace of sending off the son and the empress, Mrs. Meng rewarded Xing'er to send her away, and after listening to her granddaughter's narration, she felt even more depressed.

The child was impatient to stay in one place for a long time, and she allowed Zhen'er to run out of the temple to catch her breath, but she didn't expect the child to be so bold, he ran around in the temple by himself, and fell so badly I fell, and my nose was bleeding.

The girl who sent Zhen'er back did not say who her master was, but Zhen'er would tell Mrs. Meng: The sister who helped her was named Gui Zhen, and she heard her mother call her that!

Mrs. Meng thought of Mrs. Liang and Wang Lanzhen who had just entered the palace and stood around to watch their own affairs, and secretly thought that it should be Wang Guizhen. Maybe it was because she knew Meng Yufeng was there that she didn't come in!
Mrs. Meng couldn't help sighing. She felt it was a pity that her son refused to listen to her persuasion and divorced Gui Zhen. Now that her son married this daughter-in-law, what kind of scholarly family, poetic family, in Mrs. Meng's opinion, Not even a fraction of Wang Guizhen!
It's okay to be spoiled and spoiled, everyone is like this, but she is used to being a two-faced person, showing filial piety to her elders, and being kind to her uncles and aunts, but in fact, except for her husband Meng Yufeng, she looks down on the whole family at all, especially her two little granddaughters. Picking her nose horizontally and picking her eyes vertically, no matter how you look at it, you don't like it. The grandmother raised her two granddaughters to such a big size without any accidents. She has only been here for a few months, and she has thrown her little granddaughter into the pond!
Mrs. Meng is not only dissatisfied with this daughter-in-law, she simply hates it. If it wasn't because she was pregnant with a grandson, she wouldn't bother to come out and pray for her!

After finishing the religious service, as usual, he had to eat a fast meal in the temple before going back. Mrs. Meng took her granddaughter to rest in the cloud room. Zhen'er fell asleep quickly, and Mrs. Meng was taking a nap. Meng Yufeng came and asked when he entered the door:
"Mom, how is Zhen'er?"

Mrs. Meng glanced at him sullenly: "He's not dead! You're not serving your wife, are you willing to come and see your daughter?"

Meng Yufeng looked embarrassed, and waved to the servant standing beside him to go out, and then said: "Mother, Yingyue has a body, don't be so fussy with her!"

"Hmph! If it wasn't for the sake of the grandson in her belly, I could let her go like this? It's not good to make my little granddaughter sick for a long time, and I haven't settled with her!"

"mother!"

"What do you want your mother to do? Marry a charming young lady as a daughter-in-law, and you will be surrounded by her all day long. You are not allowed to see your daughter, and you are not allowed to accompany your parents. It is best not to recognize any brothers and sisters. Are you satisfied? You see Look at yourself, do you still have the bearing of a great general now? Even I can't stand the submissive look! I raised my son to make him stand upright, not to make you short in front of your wife!"

"Mother, why is my son doing this?"

"Not yet? I sent someone to call you over just now. Your daughter fell down and bled, why didn't you come? She didn't let you come, right? She wanted to drink the warm water you tasted, and she wanted you to feed her with your own hands. She eats fruit, doesn't she? A spineless thing! Zhen'er's mother was pregnant with two before, she only treats you more considerately and respectfully, but she ever asked you to lose your masculinity and do what these slaves do thing?"

Meng Yufeng lowered his head, unable to answer half a sentence.

Mrs. Meng pointed at him, and let out a sigh of relief: "If you don't listen to the old man's words, you will suffer in front of your eyes! At the beginning, for the sake of you and Zhen'er Zhu'er, Wang Guizhen was appointed, but you insisted not! I always thought that a lady from everyone is a good woman, you Is it wrong? The daughter-in-law you are marrying now is like this. What happened to the Wang Yaozhen you liked at the beginning? Once you marry into the palace, you don’t want to leave your natal family, and your own father doesn’t recognize her. Her father is sick, so she comes to the temple to burn incense and worship Buddha. It is Wang Guizhen and sisters who are praying for father's safety. Where is she, Wang Yaozhen? Such an unfilial and unvirtuous woman, it is too late for others to scold her, but you hold it in the palm of your hand as a treasure. You, you... I really don't know what evil I did in my previous life , give birth to a son like you!"

"Mother, stop talking, it's all in the past."

"I won't say it, can I not say it? It's a good marriage. If you say you want to withdraw, you will withdraw immediately. When someone asks for a reason, you say that the girl has a bad character in front of so many people, which makes her unable to marry for three years. Just pass? Son, don’t think about it, you are also a person with a daughter, so it’s not kind to do this, you know?”

As Mrs. Meng spoke, tears streaming down her face, she looked down at her sleeping granddaughter: "Zhen'er fell very hard, I've seen it, her nose was hurt, her knees and palms were scratched, and they were all rubbed with medicine." , I don’t feel anything now, but she will feel pain tomorrow. I also asked the master who applied the medicine for Zhen’er in the temple just now, and the master said that he just gave medicine, and Zhen’er was cooked by Miss Wang. Cleaning, rubbing medicine, using a few handkerchiefs, and even soiling her clothes without complaining... She is also a young lady of the uncle's house after all, she can take care of a child so patiently and meticulously, you say she has a bad heart , who would believe it?"

Meng Yufeng said in a daze: "Mother, which uncle's house are you talking about? Since that's the case, we should pay for her clothes and give a thank you gift!"

Mrs. Meng gave her son a white look: "Who else could it be? Didn't you see Mrs. Zhonglie and her mother and daughter just now? Wang Guizhen also came, but because of our family, she didn't follow in. She just stood outside and waited. I accidentally fell down, and it happened that she rescued Zhen'er!"

Meng Yufeng's expression turned ugly: "Why is it her?"

"Isn't it her? You accompany your wife to pray to Buddha, and she takes care of your daughter for you! How to pay for her clothes, what gift to give, you can worry about it yourself!"

After two days passed, Meng Yufeng prepared several generous gifts and went to Uncle Zhonglie's mansion. One was to visit Uncle Zhonglie Wang Yaozu, and the other was to thank Wang Guizhen for taking care of Zhen'er in the temple.

It seemed that there were visitors in the uncle's mansion, and there were several people sitting in the guest seats in the front hall. Meng Yufeng thought to himself, what a coincidence, there are a few more guests, and everyone can sit and talk together, just to save himself from embarrassment.

Wang Yaozu was a little surprised when he saw Meng Yufeng. Since the resignation, the Liang family went to Meng's house to make a big fuss, and Meng Yufeng no longer came to the uncle's house.

There was no personal grievance between the two, and Wang Yaozu is a kind-hearted person. When he comes to the door, he is just a guest, and he is still a good relative. He greeted Meng Yufeng to the living room with a smile, introduced him to other guests, and sat down to drink tea together. narrative.

Only then did Meng Yufeng find out that it turned out that the person who came today was also Wang Yaozu's old robe, whom he had known since he first joined the army. Later, this old robe went to Northeast China for [-] years. This time he returned to Beijing to visit his old friend Wang Yaozu. Here came my three sons and a son-in-law.

The reunion of old friends, great joy, the family's son and son-in-law have come, it would be too dishonest not to let the family members come out to meet each other, Wang Yaozu also ordered the housekeeper to go to the backyard, call out all the young ladies and sons, salute the parents, and meet with the same generation .

Meng Yufeng saw Wang Guizhen again, thinking it was because Wang Guizhen had rescued his daughter, Meng Yufeng felt that Wang Guizhen was not as unpleasant as when he first met. After three years, she seemed to have changed a lot, she had obviously grown taller, and her face was no longer dark. Now, her skin is white and rosy, as if water can come out with a pinch, and those big eyes, why didn't she look so beautiful before?And that waist, that chest...Meng Yufeng hurriedly lowered his head, feeling that he had been hit by a sap, his mind was buzzing, and he was only focused on scolding himself for thinking nonsense, so he couldn't hear what the people next to him were talking about. .

When sister Wang Guizhen came to pour tea for him, Wang Lanzhen withdrew her smile as soon as she came in front of him, and glanced at him unkindly, but Wang Guizhen was graceful, gentle and dignified, called Brother Meng, and offered the teacup with both hands, Meng Yufeng quickly got up to take it, and said in a low voice thank you to sister Guizhen, and then saw Wang Guizhen smiling shyly with her face down slightly, which was actually quite charming.

Meng Yufeng felt that he must have gone mad.

For several days, I kept thinking about Wang Guizhen, but finally couldn't help it, made up my mind, and went to talk to Mrs. Meng.

Mrs. Meng looked at her son in surprise: "What did you say? Want Wang Guizhen to be a concubine? My son, are you not drunk? She is a lady from the uncle's house!"

"Mother, she is just a country girl, not born to General Wang! Just for this, others will dislike her if they know about it. Besides, didn't you say that I made her unable to marry? Then I will marry her! Zhen'er and Zhu Everyone likes her, and she really looks like a gentle and gentle girl, in the future, she will take care of the two girls, as a concubine in name, I just don't treat her badly!"

Mrs. Meng thought for a while, but she was still not sure: "At the beginning, Guizhen liked you because I heard that she fell in love with you when she was still in the south. Her mother said it was love at first sight! That's why she didn't dislike you. A widower, with two daughters, was willing to be a stepwife, but you gave him back, and her mother came to our house to scold again, can this and this still be relatives?"

Meng Yufeng's eyes flickered, and recalling Wang Guizhen's shy smile in front of him, he felt a surge of excitement in his heart, and said:

"Mom, since she likes me, she will definitely agree! You just ask the matchmaker to ask... It's not too late, you have to hurry!"

"understood!"

Mrs. Meng sent a matchmaker to Uncle Zhonglie's mansion the next day. After half a day, the matchmaker came back and complained endlessly, saying that he was scolded by Mrs. Uncle, and was finally chased away by the lady in red at the Uncle's mansion with a broom. out!
The matchmaker told Mrs. Meng another sentence: "Mrs. Meng, ask your daughter to be someone else's concubine. My daughter will not be a concubine even if she is raised at home all her life!"

Mrs. Meng gritted her teeth: "Mr. Liang, don't be ashamed. When your daughter really can't get married, come beg me again, and don't want her!"

In the backyard of Uncle Zhonglie's mansion, Wang Guizhen was sitting in the room crying, Wang Lanzhen accompanied him to persuade him, and from time to time scolded Meng Yufeng, you bastard. Mrs. Liang brought her youngest son in, and cursed at Wang Guizhen:
"What's the use of you crying? According to my temperament, I will directly kill him at his house, and smash his mother's ass to pieces. I won't be relieved! If you don't allow it, his Meng family can ruin people like this, why do you have any scruples? "

Wang Guizhen wiped her tears and said: "Mother, let's just ignore him. I think he will only ask this time. If he still dares to come, we will talk about it later! Don't come to the door to make trouble every now and then, and always save face for Dad."

"What shame..."

"Mom, just listen to me, okay? I'm already very sad!"

"Okay, okay, it's up to you, everything is up to you! Don't be sad, huh?"

Half a month after this terrible incident, another matchmaker came to Uncle Zhonglie's mansion and proposed to propose marriage to Miss Wang Guizhen. Wang Guizhen's heart sank, fearing that it was another matchmaker from the Meng family, Liang said harshly:

"I'll go and see, if it's from the Meng family again, if I spare him this time, I'll deserve it!"

But it was not the matchmaker of the Meng family, but the one who came that day, sent by Wang Yaozu's son-in-law of the old robe.

The son-in-law of Wang Yaozu's former robe Ze was surnamed Jiang and named Jiang Hui. He is 28 years old this year. He is the younger brother of Marshal Dongbeiguan and a third-rank general. , his first wife died of illness three years ago, leaving behind a [-]-year-old daughter, who has not been able to find a suitable successor. She was a good woman, and he persuaded Jiang Hui to continue the marriage. Jiang Hui thought about it after going back, and thought that Wang Guizhen was very good, so he invited a matchmaker to come to propose marriage.

Mrs. Liang went back to the backyard and told the situation. The mother and daughter all had sullen faces and didn't speak for a while.

Why can't it be normal?Meng Yufeng was Wang Guizhen's favorite, and he put a hot face on a cold butt. In the end, Wang Guizhen finally gave up completely because of this result, and didn't have the slightest nostalgia for Meng Yufeng anymore.Now the one who proposes marriage is actually a widower!Wang Guizhen thought a little sadly, did she live for widowers in this life?

Mrs. Liang sent the matchmaker, because Meng Yufeng made a fuss, and was extremely dissatisfied with the person who wanted his daughter to be his successor, so he didn't give the matchmaker an accurate word. Two days later, Wang Yaozu's old robe came again.

This time, even Wang Yaozu became active and enthusiastic, helping the old robes, and praised Jiang Hui as almost perfect in front of Liang Shi. Gone! Jiang Hui is the most upright and honest person, he doesn’t like to mess with women, for so many years, let alone a concubine’s house, he doesn’t even want a concubine’s room! As soon as he enters the house, he is in charge of the house, and the big uncle’s house is all under the control of the head’s wife.” Listen in the ear.

She calculated it in her mind, and when she returned to the backyard to see her daughter, she showed her best eloquence and vigorously persuaded Wang Guizhen.

Does Wang Guizhen not understand her mother?After much deliberation, she finally made a request to meet Jiang Hui and his daughter.

Wang Yaozu immediately invited Jiang Hui's father and daughter to visit the mansion, and Wang Guizhen personally entertained them. The father and daughter stayed in Uncle Zhonglie's mansion for a long time, but in the end the girl didn't want to go back with her father, making Jiang Hui dumbfounded.

The marriage was settled soon.

In the blink of an eye, in the first lunar month, Jiang Hui wore a big red robe, rode a tall horse, and led the wedding team to carry a red sedan chair, blowing and beating, and brought the bride home happily.

Spring comes early again, as if the new year has just passed, and the spring snow has melted for a few days. Before you know it, the willows in the yard show a light green, and the apricot tree by the wall suddenly bloomed overnight, pink The flowers in clusters are clustered in clusters, and the branches are crowded with excitement.

Sitting in a soft rattan armchair under the apricot tree, Wang Guizhen was sewing a spring shirt for her eldest daughter, Jiang Nuan. The two sons, who are still sons in this stomach, are seven months old, and they must be very naughty. As long as they are awake, they will keep punching and kicking to make people feel safe.

Thinking of her husband stroking her belly and teaching her son: "If you are dishonest, your mother won't be able to sleep well. When you come out, I will see how I deal with you!"

Wang Guizhen couldn't help smiling.

"mother!"

After a delicate call, Jiang Nuan's figure appeared at the Moon Cave Gate, followed by two small figures, one red and one yellow, behind her.

The two younger ones obviously walked very restlessly, and they were scolded by Jiang Nuan from time to time. Wang Guizhen looked up at her daughter who was acting like a queen in front of the two sons, and couldn't help smiling: Although she was not her own, but she exchanged hearts, Jiang Nuan I am no different from my own mother and daughter.

Walking to his mother, the four-year-old eldest son sued his sister: "Mom, my sister won't let us eat snacks!"

Wang Guizhen looked at Jiang Nuan: "Nuaner, why don't you let my brother eat some snacks?"

Jiang Nuan said: "Mother, I didn't let them eat, one for each person, isn't it enough? It's almost lunch time, and if you eat too much snacks, will you still eat later? If you don't eat meat or vegetables, you won't eat." It's grown up!"

Wang Guizhen nodded in satisfaction, and said softly to the two sons: "My sister is right, you two, listen to what my sister says, you are right!"

He lifted up the clothes in his hand again, and said with a smile: "Come here, Nuan'er. A few days ago, your Fang Shibo and Aunt Fang brought Miss Yurui from his family to our house as a guest. Mother looked at the dress Miss Yurui was wearing. It’s pretty good, so I made one for you, try it!”

Jiang Nuan approached happily, put on her clothes, looked left and right, and said with a smile, "It's so pretty! Mom, I like it!"

As she spoke, she reached out and touched Wang Guizhen's stomach, and asked, "Mother, is little brother good today? Did he not kick you?"

Wang Guizhen smiled and said, "I kicked it, I kicked it twice, don't tell your father, lest he scold your little brother again!"

Jiang Nuan patted Wang Guizhen's stomach again, and said, "Little brother, be good, don't kick your mother anymore, do you know how hard your mother is?"

The two boys also came closer, imitating Jiang Nuan and reaching out to touch their mother's belly, giggling and shouting: "Little brother, what are you doing?"

The maid came to report that the lunch was ready, so Wang Guizhen ordered the lunch to be put on the table, and asked Jiang Nuan to lead the two younger brothers to wash their hands and prepare for dinner.

She and Jiang Hui had already discussed that if Jiang Hui couldn't come home on time outside, he would take the children to eat as soon as the meal time came, and he couldn't starve the children.

The maidservant went to spread the word to prepare the meal, and Jiang Hui came back.

As soon as the children saw their father, they immediately went up to him. The two boys climbed directly on top of their father like monkeys. Jiang Nuan was the girl who was more reserved. She called out to her father and stood beside her laughingly watching her younger brothers play.

Jiang Hui had two sons hanging on his body, took his daughter with one hand, walked up to Wang Guizhen with a smile, and asked with a smile, "Guier, how are you doing today? The kid in your stomach isn't making a lot of trouble, right?"

"He didn't make trouble, today is fine!"

Wang Guizhen finished speaking with a smile, and tried to stand up with one hand on her back, but Jiang Hui waved his hands to stop him: "Sit still, wait for me to help you!"

As he said, he quickly took off his two sons and put them on the ground, then walked over with one arm around his waist and one hand on his arm, and carefully and slowly helped Wang Guizhen up.

Wang Guizhen smiled and said, "Husband, are you hungry? The meal is already set, let's eat!"

"Okay, I'm going to eat, I'm hungry! My colleagues went to the restaurant to drink, but I refused to go when they told me to go. It's boring to drink outside all the time. I'd better come home. My wife and children are around the table. The whole family is lively and happy. It's also delicious!"

Jiang Hui supported Wang Guizhen, and the couple walked slowly. Jiang Hui whispered in Wang Guizhen's ear, turned his head from time to time to scold the two naughty boys, and gently told his daughter to take care of his younger brother. No one believed that he used to be a majestic general on the battlefield. He was just an ordinary family man who had to take care of his pregnant wife and was distracted from disciplining his children.

Leaning in her husband's generous arms, Wang Guizhen watched with a smile as the children walked past the couple hand in hand, went to the water basin to wash their hands, and chattered. She didn't think the children were noisy at all, but felt This is the greatest and best happiness bestowed on her by God!
