The Chronicle of the Rebirth of the First Daughter

Chapter 75
"It's also during this time that my wife and I are both sick, and Yuechan will take care of the family's internal affairs. My wife is afraid that no one will take care of Yuechan when she leaves."

The old lady had no choice but to use this reason to dismiss the Su family.

"Oh?" Su Mushi smiled: "That's true!"

While talking, Su Mushi winked at the second wife, who nodded secretly, and said with a smile: "Yuechan is smart, she can take care of housework at such a young age, which is really good."

The third wife also understood what the two sister-in-laws meant, and covered her mouth with a handkerchief and laughed: "Yuechan in Meng's Mansion can take care of her, so she is capable. Alas, it's a pity that we don't have any daughters, otherwise It can also share some worries for us."

After hearing this, the old lady calmed down, seeing that the three wives of the Su family were no longer pressing, and there was a smile on her face: "What my in-laws said is that our Yuechan is good, not only filial, but also Smart and courteous."

Su Mushi nodded and agreed: "The old lady's words are very true, I just thought about it. When our aunt went there, Yuechan and Haoyu were still young, and the aunt's dowry was always managed by the house. I don't know if it's you or the wife who is guarding, but looking at it now, Yuechan is capable, even if she can take care of your residence, she must be able to take care of that little dowry."

The third wife hurriedly agreed: "Yeah, Yuechan is so smart, why don't the old lady let her take care of our aunt's dowry? Alas, the old lady also knows that sometimes, good intentions can't be ignored." You will do something wrong, no matter if it is you or the wife of your family, or they are all kind enough to take care of her mother's dowry for Yuechan, but when Yuechan grows up, if the dowry is missing or missing something, this child will inevitably Don't worry, after all, the wife of your mansion is the stepwife, not her biological mother, they are separated by a floor, at that time, it would be bad for mother and daughter to turn against each other."

The old lady also realized now that the three sisters-in-law of the Su family are here to set her up and ask her to hand over Su's dowry.

She originally wanted to refute it back, but seeing the situation of the Su family, she knew that this matter was not easy to understand. If she didn't hand over the dowry, she was afraid that the Su family would spread the news about the Meng family. Said it was absolutely intolerable.

However, to hand over the dowry, the old lady was in great pain.

At this moment, the old lady hated Liu Mei very much, it was all caused by this careless thing, if it was not the case, she would not be so embarrassing.

This is neither right nor left, so the old lady fell silent, secretly thinking about what to do.

"In order to avoid any eventuality in the future, it is better to explain this matter clearly while our aunts are here." The second wife smiled and said softly: "It's not nice to say, there is a future." The mother has a stepfather, and it will be several years before Yuechan gets married. Who knows what will happen at that time, if Mrs. Liu has some bad intentions and the dowry prepared for Yuechan is not rich enough, what will the child do? Why not? Let's figure out our aunt's dowry right now, and then Yuechan's dowry will not be worrying."

This is persecution again, the old lady is very confused, but she has no choice but to respond: "What the in-laws said is that Su's dowry should have been given to the children in the first place, even if you bring it up, we will do as you said." Bar."

After saying this, the old lady gritted her teeth, thinking that Liu Mei, an idiot, must not let her go lightly.

Seeing the old lady let go, the three wives of the Su family were very happy, all of them were smiling, and they flattered the old lady: "After all, the old lady is the old lady in this house, she has her own ideas when she does things. .”

The one said: "Isn't that why? This is because the old lady feels sorry for Yuechan. I thanked the old lady on behalf of Yuechan. When we go back and talk about this matter, our old lady may be able to eat. .”

Another person laughed and said: "The old lady is a kind-hearted person. I just said that when a talented woman like our aunt was about to step through the threshold, but she didn't choose anyone, but chose the master of your family. It turns out that It actually values ​​the kindness of your family."

The corners of the old lady's mouth twitched when she heard this. Is this a compliment to her, or to the Su family?

However, even if she agreed, no matter how distressed the old lady was, she still had to deal with it, so she waved her hand and said loudly: "Fei Cui, go and call the eldest young master and eldest miss, and say that someone from their grandfather's house is here." .”

She had just finished speaking, and the three wives of the Su family were waiting with smiles on their faces, but a little girl from outside hurried over, with disheveled hair and disheveled clothes, knelt down on the ground profusely with sweat: " Old lady, old lady..."

"Where are all the rules?" The old lady's face was ugly, she looked at this ignorant little girl, and then looked at the ridicule on the faces of the three members of the Su family, she was even more angry: "Crystal, put this ignorant girl Pull it down."

Jing Jing responded, and came over to pull the little girl, but the little girl was struggling desperately, while struggling, she said: "Old lady, there are people from the palace outside, who say they are coming to our house to deliver an edict!"

In a word, it was like a thunderbolt!
People in the palace?deliver an imperial order?
Not only the old lady was shocked, but also the three wives of the Su family were shocked.

It may be a good thing, or it is a disaster to destroy the ancestors. You must know that Emperor Tianchen does not often pass orders to his courtiers. Every time he passes an order, there is a big event to happen.

Moreover, the people who passed the decree to Emperor Tianchen were all important officials in the court with real power. Like Meng Zhiwen, who has a title but does not have much real power, and the official is not a very big person. Where did he receive the imperial decree?No wonder everyone panicked.

"Hurry up, hurry up..." The old lady couldn't sit still anymore, she stood up holding the girl's hand: "Hurry up and find someone to inform the master..."

Seeing the situation of the Meng family, Su Mu knew that the dowry would not be returned for the time being, so she took the two sisters-in-law to stand up and leave.

The old lady was busy at the moment, and she couldn't care about anything, so she had to ask a little girl to see them off, and then repeatedly ordered the people outside to invite the angels in the palace first, and then let them clean and set up the incense table Those who laid out the red carpet, that was quite a mess.

After a while, Meng Zhiwen came back from the outside, and the old lady finally had a backbone. When Liu Mei came in, the old lady looked at her and leaned over in suspense. This Liu Mei was too ignorant. The one who fell had black eyes, a broken nose, a swollen mouth, and scars on his face. That's it, and he wasn't afraid to come out and show his face, but he wanted to accept the order?

One is bad, I’m afraid I’ll have to punish the disrespectful one, tell me about you, since you’re injured, you can rest in the house by yourself, why are you still wandering around.

The old lady was very upset, and made another note to Liu Mei.

Actually, Liu Mei didn't know what to do in her heart, and she was also afraid. She also knew what happened with the three of Su's family just now, and the old lady had her nails in her house no matter what happened.

At that time, Liu Mei regretted so much, why didn't she think about it at the beginning? Because Yuechan got the attention of Miss Jiang's family, she was invited out to meet those powerful children, and Liu Qingning didn't bring her own daughter with her. He was extremely depressed, so he said something unpleasant when the Su family came to give the boxing gift, so as to hit Yuechan.

However, she didn't expect the Su family to have such a big reaction. Over the years, the Su family didn't like to see Yuechan brothers and sisters very much. They didn't even see them a few times. Why are they so nervous this time?Liu Mei was a little confused.

So, when she knew that the old lady told her to go over, she excused her injury to get away with it, but it's different now, this is an angel from the palace who came to preach the imperial decree, who knows what will happen, she is also worried Meng Zhiwen had no choice but to come out with her injuries to see if something would happen to her, otherwise, she wouldn't feel at ease.

When Meng Zhiwen came back, all the adult masters of the Meng family had arrived, and the incense case was ready, so they invited the father-in-law in the palace.

As soon as this father-in-law came in, Meng Zhiwen was even more surprised when he saw it, thinking how could it be him?

This is none other than the godson of Father-in-Law Liu Quanxi, who served Emperor Tianchen. Although he does not have much power in the palace, his godfather is well recognized. The emperor's servant, the chief steward of the palace, this little If the father-in-law wants to be promoted, it is simply too easy.

Meng Zhiwen was surprised, but knelt down on the ground calmly, shouting long live.

Both Mrs. Meng and Liu Mei knelt down, lowered their heads, not daring to move.

The little father-in-law looked at it, nodded with a smile, took out the imperial edict from his sleeve, and unfolded it to read.

The three of the Meng family listened, thumping with fear in their hearts, waiting for the little father-in-law to finish reading, Meng Zhiwen took the order, everyone got up, Meng Zhiwen smiled at him: "This father-in-law has worked hard, please come to the front hall Have tea."

The little father-in-law smiled: "That's unnecessary, there are still a lot of things in the palace, and the godfather explained it when he came, so don't miss the time."

Meng Zhiwen saw that he had made up his mind to go, so he couldn't stay any longer, so he just leaned over and quietly handed over a jade pendant, and asked in a low voice, "I just don't know what the emperor means when he summons his ministers into the palace? Also, the courtier's daughter is under ten years old. Your Majesty..."

He couldn't figure it out, it was fine to call him into the palace, why did he call Yuechan into the palace, according to the meaning of the imperial decree, it was mainly about Yuechan's affairs here, he was just a foil.

Meng Zhiwen thought about it carefully, his daughter is a serious boudoir girl, she usually stays out of the door, and has never done anything excessive, so why did Emperor Tianchen hear her name?

The little father-in-law took the jade pendant, looked at the color of the jade, accepted it with satisfaction, and clasped his fists at Meng Zhiwen: "We don't know about this, Mr. Meng also knows that the king's heart is unpredictable, and we are only loyal to the emperor. Do whatever you want, never dare to guess what the emperor thinks."

Meng Zhiwen wiped off his sweat, answered yes again and again, and personally sent the little father-in-law out.

When he reached the gate of Meng's house, the little father-in-law turned his head and said in a voice that only Meng Zhiwen could hear: "Your Majesty Meng, don't be afraid, it's probably a good thing."

After speaking, the little father-in-law left in a sedan chair, leaving Meng Zhiwen confused and confused.

When he returned to the living room, he saw the old lady and Liu Mei waiting for him anxiously. Meng Zhiwen hurried over and told the old lady what the little father-in-law had left, and asked the old lady to think about it. What an allusion.

The old lady frowned and thought about it for a long time, but she still couldn't figure it out.

"Could it be that the emperor has taken a fancy to my Yuechan?" Finally, the old lady had no choice but to say so.

As soon as she spoke, Liu Mei lowered her head, her hand was wrapped in a handkerchief, and her gaze became even more fierce.
