From the ashes: Return of the General

Chapter 380 Surprise and Joy

"Naturally, I went to Xisan, the full moon, and the first year. Not only did you go, but you still hugged me and refused to let go." Speaking of the old things, Xu touched Mei Xin's face. The back of the hand said earnestly: "You were not raised well in the mother's womb. When you were born, you were not half the size of others. It is very pitiful to look at. Your father was worried that you would not be able to support you, and that your mother could not take good care of you. He asked me to find you." I have two capable wives. Although Mrs. Wu is a bit older, she is the most considerate and considerate. I remember when your father saw her, he was still unwilling to keep her."

It was also a coincidence that Mrs. Wu had already taken off her slave status at that time and was going home to retire.Therefore, it is also the fate between Mei Xin and her, and this care has been taken care of for more than ten years.

Unexpectedly, Granny Wu was the one who found her. Mei Xin said gratefully: "Thank you, Auntie. If it wasn't for Auntie's wholehearted help, I might have died a long time ago."

Shangguan Xinrou didn't want her, and wanted to get rid of her and kill her wholeheartedly. She didn't eat well after she became pregnant.On the contrary, she deliberately starved herself, so that she was very small and sickly when she was born, and this is the reason why her father asked her to practice martial arts.

At that time, Mrs. Xu only thought that Shangguan Xinrou's newborn child was out of her temper and that she would be fine after a while, but she didn't expect that she didn't want to have a child with Mei Zhannan at all.Not only that, but she also secretly communicated with King Huai of Chu, and had an illegitimate child.

Mei Xin has really suffered these years. Not to mention being sent away at a young age, she has always been rejected by her biological mother, and if the truth hadn't come to light, she still doesn't know why and is kept in the dark.

Mrs. Xu, who accidentally touched Mei Xin's tiger's mouth, looked down and saw that her hands were so rough that they didn't look like women's hands at all. She said with some distress: "It's unlucky to say that you can't die. The whole family Don't talk about the two families, since you should call me aunt. Fortunately, it's over, and you will grow into a big girl in a blink of an eye, and you will be a mother in a few months. Xin'er, don't hate her , she's not worth it."

A tiger's venom does not eat its children, and she despises a vicious woman like Shangguan Xinrou.At the beginning when the sage bestowed the marriage, Shangguan's family was overjoyed and wished they could send her to Prince Liang's mansion right away, but she was not happy.It's fine if you're not happy or unwilling, why don't you resist the decree?If she resisted the decree and did not obey it, and if King Chu Huai insisted on her not marrying, then the Empress Dowager would definitely not have asked her to marry into Prince Liang's mansion because of the empress dowager's love for King Chu Huai at that time.

What kind of skill is it to spread all your grievances on a child because you are greedy for life and afraid of death? A vicious woman like her is not worthy of having children, let alone being a mother.That is to say, Mei Zhannan is generous and doesn't care about her, another man would have divorced her long ago.

It's too bitter to hate someone, Mei Xin understood what she meant, nodded and said: "I know, I have nothing to do with her anymore, let her go. Auntie, don't worry about me, I'm fine, and the child is fine too." It's fine, I'll be fine in the future."

Seeing her concern and pitiful, distressed eyes was a little sad, Mei Xin's nose was sore and her eyes were inexplicably red.She will not kill Shangguan Xinrou, she will let her suffer the consequences and fend for herself.

Seeing Mei Xin like this, Xu felt quite uncomfortable, he shook her hand tightly and said, "Yes, it's right to think so, you are a good boy, there is still a long way to go, and you will get better and better Yes. How are your father and your brother? Did you see your father when you entered the palace? I heard that your father has woken up?"

I heard from my husband last night that I don't know how the injury is, but I don't think it's life-threatening if I wake up.

Nodding to show that she saw it, Mei Xin said a little depressed: "I saw it, but I didn't say anything. My elder brother is fine. The emperor has summoned him back to Beijing for the New Year, and he will be back a year ago. Aunt, my elder brother is already 22 years old. It's 23 years old, and it's time to get married. The emperor wants to give him a marriage, but I don't want to. I'm afraid that the imperial decree will give him a marriage like my parents. Aunt, I'm back in the capital for the first time, do you know Whose daughter in Beijing has a pure character and intelligence?"

The eldest brother Sui father is an honest man with a generous and straightforward personality. She wants to find him a girl who is smart but honest.As long as people have a righteous heart, no amount of heart will harm others, and they also have their own bottom line and principles.

The Mei family never cared about their background when they married a daughter-in-law, but this time she wanted to find a lady from a great family to be her sister-in-law, preferably a girl from a rich family like Xu's.

Marriage throughout the ages has always focused on being well-matched. If the Mei family wants to prosper, they must find a woman from a wealthy family.It's not just the connection of interests, the most important thing is that the women from the aristocratic family are educated and reasonable, and they will never ruin people's life with short-sightedness like my grandmother.

Thinking of her grandmother who had stopped at home, Mei Xin felt a little upset.It is human nature to avoid interests and disadvantages, and grandmother is not really stopping but waiting for an opportunity.Dad is the most filial, I'm afraid there will be troubles in the future.

Xu was first overjoyed and then surprised. She was overjoyed when she suddenly heard that Mei Jinze was coming back, and she couldn't help but be overjoyed because the emperor wanted to grant a marriage to intervene in the eldest nephew's marriage.How did this happen? It was he who forcibly dismantled Shangguan Xinruo and King Chuhuai that caused today's misfortune. If there was another one, wouldn't it be that the elder nephew would be harmed.

In an instant, Xu became anxious, and blurted out: "Why does the good emperor think of giving a marriage? Does your elder brother have a girl he likes in Liangzhou? This... your elder brother has never returned to Beijing, and I don't know what kind of girl he likes." Girl, your uncle is asking me to pay attention. I... what can I do, this..."

Thinking of how much her father-in-law loves this eldest nephew, Xu felt anxious.A few years ago, her father-in-law gave her an order, and she really took it to heart, but Mei Jinze has never returned to Beijing, so how can she match it up.

The emperor is also full of food, why should he give someone a marriage, if this is really a marriage, the father-in-law will definitely be angry.When he got angry, he was the one who was unlucky, and he would definitely scold his head and cover his face, bloody.

Although she didn't know that she was so anxious and nervous because she was afraid of being scolded, Mei Xin still comforted Xu and said: "Auntie, don't worry, there is still room for improvement in this matter. As long as we decide on the candidate before the election of the concubine, I will see you when my eldest brother comes back." If you are satisfied, the two families will allow my father to enter the palace to ask for the imperial decree to marry me. And my father, the emperor said that in order to compensate him, he will give me another marriage, marry me a stepmother, and take care of my father and be filial to my grandmother. , Second, it can also help me take care of my unborn child."

In fact, she didn't object to her father's continuation, on the contrary, she thought it was quite good.My father has been stationed in Liangzhou for half his life as a soldier. It is indeed quite lonely to be alone. It is good to have a caring person to accompany him, even if it is just to talk.
