Marriage Beloved in Troubled Times: Madam Wants to Run Away from Marriage

Chapter 353
Only then did Bai Zhilan nod in agreement.

"Then you...you can go back and live. Adjutant Zhang didn't go with Xizhou this time, so you instruct Adjutant Zhang to strengthen the defense in the courtyard. In the past few days, except for running in front of me and the old lady, you should Just don’t go, we’ll talk about everything when Xizhou comes back.”

"Okay." Gu Wan nodded.

Then he turned his head and said to Uncle De and the others: "Since all of you have come here, let's go over and show Mrs. Huo, and tell the outside world that the old lady's condition is not very good. Please come and treat me."

"Okay, boss." Several doctors agreed, and then left.

"Wanwan, it seems that I have to hurry up and get rid of the mice in the house." Bai Zhilan narrowed her eyes: "It's better to ask the doctors to show the old lady, so that it will stimulate those who are hiding in the house." If the people in the dark can lure them to attack in advance and wipe them all out, things will be much easier later on."

Gu Wan said: "I listen to my mother about these matters."

At the same time, the Meng family.

These years, relying on the Huo family's second house, on the surface, the Meng family is only a third-rate wealthy family in Jiangcheng, but Zheng Xuan and Huo Minghao have provided the Meng family with a lot of convenience, so that in many profitable businesses, the Meng family can always Get ahead.This makes them somewhat arrogant in private, as can be seen from their daring to risk the ban of the sixteen southern provinces and sell tobacco in private.

Because of long-term activities in the dark, the Meng family also has its own intelligence organization, but it is only a small scale at the commercial level.This led to the news of Huo Minghao's serious injury, which they did not get until this day.

Meng Dechun was furious in the study: "What? Hao'er was injured? When did you get the news? Why did you send it here now? How is Hao'er injured? To what extent? This letter didn't make it clear. Don't the people in your family know?"

Asking so many questions in a row is enough to show how nervous he is about Huo Minghao.

The subordinate replied cautiously: "Master, it will take some time for this news to come back. It is true that there is no more news, but I have already asked them to investigate the specific situation."

"Besides, I also got news that the Huo family has already sent someone to pick up Master Minghao back to Jiangcheng. It was the Fourth Master Huo who was sent there. Now I think he is already on his way back. If the master is worried about Master Minghao's injury, Half a month later, it will be the New Year's Eve, and before the end of each year, the military government will hold a banquet for people from all walks of life, why don't you take advantage of the New Year's Eve feast, and then go to the Huo Mansion to find out?"

"I think this is fine," Zhao Xiao'e's voice came from outside.

The door was pushed open, she came in, and said to Meng Dechun: "Master, what are you doing with such a big temper, the matter has not reached the point of irreversibility."

When Meng Dechun saw her, he became even more angry, and said coldly, "It's not your son, so you don't care about it."

Zhao Xiao'e's heart sank immediately. She knew about Zheng Xuan and Meng Dechun from the very beginning.

Decades ago, Zheng Xuan was brought back by Meng Dechun who went out to do business, and was kept secretly by Meng Dechun in the yard. Later, when Meng Dechun owed a large amount of debt in business, Zheng Xuan took the initiative to seduce Huo Ting. So she took the child and became Huo Ting's concubine.

Zheng Xuan is really a woman with means. The child was not born at full term, but it never aroused Huo Ting's suspicion.

As Meng Dechun's main wife, Meng Dechun is kind to other women, she can't hold back her anger, but to Zheng Xuan, she has to hold back if she doesn't want to. Over the years, the Meng family has relied on Zheng Xuan's support in the Huo Mansion. It is because of her relationship that she has always been stable and wealthy. Speaking of it, it means that she is just relying on Zheng Xuan to live a good life.So she didn't dare to have any opinions, and even helped Meng Dechun keep it secret from a few people who only knew the secret.

If it was before, she wouldn't even ask about Zheng Xuan and Huo Minghao. After all, she always thought that although Huo Minghao was Meng Dechun's son, his goal was the status of the Huo family and the power of the army , This is different from the fact that she wants her son Meng Shuheng to inherit the Meng family business and only wants money and wealth.

But if Huo Minghao is disabled and can no longer compete for the Huo family's position, will he come back and compete with his son for the Meng family's property?

Thinking of this, Zhao Xiao'e began to worry, so the first time she got the news, she hurried over to test Meng Dechun's attitude.

As soon as she opened her mouth, she was reprimanded a few times, which made her feel even more uncomfortable, and replied sullenly: "What are you yelling at me? I didn't hurt Huo Minghao."

Huo Minghao was only injured, at most his limbs were broken, but her son's third leg was broken...

Originally, she thought that rumors would not spread so quickly, so she might be able to find a good marriage for her son and a strong daughter-in-law before everyone knew about it, so when The son fell in love with the daughter of the Lan family, and she also supported her son in pursuing him.

Who knew that the last time Lan Ningshu celebrated her birthday, Meng Shuheng just went to join in the fun, and came back in dismay. The news about him being "abandoned" spread even more intensely, and soon everyone knew about it.

So much so that during this period of time, Meng Shuheng has been giving up on himself, hiding in the house and drinking all day long, refusing to go anywhere.

Zhao Xiao'e chose this time to come here because she wanted to take some power from Meng Shuheng to give Meng Shuheng some power, so that Meng Shuheng could cheer up.

Thinking of this, she clenched her fists and softened her tone: "Okay, master, Minghao went to suppress the bandits this time. Although he came back with injuries, he also made great contributions. The Huo family must be I won't treat him badly. You, don't worry too much. If something really happened, Sister Zheng Xuan will definitely get the news earlier. She is not in a hurry to come to you to discuss countermeasures. If she didn't come, it proves that Ming Hao Nothing serious."

These words eased An Meng Dechun's heart.

Zhao Xiaoe saw that the words moved him, so she glanced at Meng Dechun's subordinates: "What are you still doing? You've already explained the matter clearly, why don't you hurry up and ask for more news?"

The servant glanced at Zhao Xiaoe, and then at Meng Dechun.

In the end, Meng Dechun was his real master.

Meng Dechun smashed an inkstone in his hand: "Hurry up and check!"

The subordinate then hurriedly left the study.

Zhao Xiao'e personally poured a cup of tea for Meng Dechun and handed it to him: "Calm down, master, since the matter has come to this, you should calm down and think about what to do next? It is useless to lose your temper. "

Seeing that Meng Dechun didn't express any objection, she went on to say: "In my opinion, the master is not bothered to leave the family's business to Shuheng to do part of it. Minghao is injured. Naturally, he needs to take good care of his injuries. The most important thing is his body. Let Shuheng do the things in Minghao's hands, okay?"
