Chapter 12 Meng Ruimo
Big Madam Meng hated to hear the last sentence, why should the debt of saving Meng Ruimo’s favor be repaid by her son, who didn’t beg him to save it. She didn’t dare to say this, glanced at her husband and lowered her head in embarrassment.
Duke Cheng was busy saying, “Father, I’m not being facetious, we’re sincere in our request for marriage. Elder Lady Jiang and Jiang Xiao did not agree, so we invited Second Miss Jiang here and asked her attitude. Second Miss Jiang didn’t agree either, and Niang Yu’er asked a second time, and she still didn’t agree ……”
He said Jiang Yixi’s words.
The old Duke of State nodded frequently after hearing this, “I told you, Jiang Chen’s daughter wouldn’t be so classless. It’s a good child, like Jiang Chen, with a heart and temperament. It’s a pity that such a good daughter-in-law was lost, it’s because Resignation Feather wasn’t blessed.”
These words again exasperated eldest Mrs. Meng to want to stand up and storm out, but she had to hold back.
Elder Mrs. Meng was relieved that she was wrong about that child.
She laughed and said, “You’re affectionate and I’m righteous, this outcome is the best. However, after this kind of incident, it’s not good for Little Miss Jiang’s reputation. Eldest daughter-in-law, remember, on appropriate occasions, help that child talk more. And ah, we promise to take care of that child’s marriage, you should also help see to it that a good scion is born.”
Big Mrs. Meng smiled, “Yes, I also feel sorry for that child, good-looking, clear. Pity the poor child, at a young age both parents died …….”
Meng Yu suddenly rushed in, covered in wine breath, face red.
He ran to the front of the eldest Mrs. Meng, and said sadly, “That girl was the one you begged to marry, not me. Her father saved Big Brother’s life, it should be Big Brother who marries her, not me. I put my words here, even if you marry her into the door, I will still regard her as nothing ……”
Duke Chengguo drank, “Asshole, books are read into the dog’s stomach, dare to talk to elders like this.”
Meng big lady busy said, “you this child say something ah, Jiang second girl did not promise the marriage.”
Meng Yu thought he heard wrong, was frozen in time, the old Duke of the country big fist smashed a small table next to him, roared, “Go, please family law, today I want to teach this little brat how to behave.”
Meng dame was scared out of her wits, pulling her son down on her knees with her, “Duke take it easy, Yu’er drank too much wine, what he said he doesn’t even know himself.”
Meng Zhi Yu was also scared to sober up, the first thing that came to mind was not that the old man was going to beat someone up, but that Jiang Yishi did not agree to the marriage. He turned his head sideways and asked, “Mother, that girl really didn’t agree to the marriage?”
First Lady Meng said, “Yes.”
Meng Zhuyu instantly regained his usual genteel elegance and kowtowed to the old Grand Master, “Grandson’s words were not appropriate, please chastise Grandfather.”
The old Duke was shaken with anger, the old madam pulled on his sleeve to persuade him, and Duke Cheng also knelt down to ask for forgiveness.
The subordinate didn’t dare to disobey the order and came over a little later holding a whip.
The old duchess pointed the whip at Meng Ruyu and said, “Your elder brother went to war with me at the age of sixteen, killed countless enemies, and survived nine deaths. He went to war not only to serve the court, but also to make this family continue to prosper. If Jiang Chen had not blocked that arrow, he would have been the one to die. You don’t remember his good deeds, you don’t share his worries, and you actually say those bastard words. I’ll beat you to death ……”
Before the words were finished a whip was thrown, breaking Meng Yu’s clothes and drawing a blood scar on his shoulder.
Big Mrs. Meng cried, “Father rest his anger. Yu’er said some nonsense words, it’s not too much to beat him to death, but you can’t make your old man angry. We all know Mo’er’s good, filial piety and understanding of etiquette, both civil and military. But the gods were not kind, and he fell and hurt his eye. Daughter-in-law love him to the bone, my brother wrote to say again in the south to invite a good doctor …….
The people a burst of persuasion, Meng Ruyu still received five lashes.
The movement in Fu An Hall is big, living in the front yard of Meng Ruimo also heard.
His face was cold, like a statue standing by the window looking out. There is a green patch on the right side of the yard, and he knows that it is a camphor tree, and spring is the time for it to grow new leaves and drop old ones.
But he couldn’t see the leaves.
Looking further up into the distant sky, the sky was a dark gray. He knew that the sky should be blue at this time, and the big orb should be dazzling. The colorful world before would not appear in front of his eyes again. Gradually, everything in front of him would turn black forever.
His left eye had become completely blind, and his right eye was getting blurry, and he didn’t know when he would be completely blind.
Jiang Yishi refused to marry is Meng Ruimo happy to see, this family only he knows Meng Dafaoren face kind heart bitter. If the little girl marries over, she will have to suffer a lot.
Meng Ruimo’s mind floated back to a little girl. Around ten years old, wearing a light red jacket, with picturesque eyebrows and glistening tears. Shrouded by the pale morning sun, like a small flower that had just blossomed in the mist.
She chased out of the gate hugging Jiang Chen’s stirrups and couldn’t let go, crying, “Father, you have to come back alive. I already don’t have a mother, I can’t be without a father …… anymore.”
Her father, however, died because he saved himself.
Every time she thought of that scene in front of the Jiang family’s door, Meng Ruimo’s heart was as hard as a needle. General Jiang was killed in battle, leaving his pair of little children in pity. Just like himself, his own father is still there, as well as his loving grandfather and grandmother, the vicissitudes of growing up are only known to him.
Time flies, turn the little girl into a big girl, it is time to say in-laws. He believed that General Jiang’s daughter would not do that impecunious thing, pulling the person next to her into the water was an accident. No matter who the person standing there is, she will pull.
I wanted to help that pair of siblings more, but my eyes are getting …… worse.
He said to Meng Lianshan, who was waiting at the side, “Tomorrow, you will ask Jiang Xun again to see how the Jiang family will deal with the second girl of Jiang, and what kind of help do you need from me. Give Jiang Xun another five hundred taels of silver checks and instruct him not to let the old lady collect them.”
When some things were settled, he would return to the manor. He didn’t want to see Big Mrs. Meng hating him to death, but also pretending to be a loving mother, looking around for famous doctors ……
That woman had her subordinates come several times a day or even a dozen times a day to ask about this and that, seemingly caring, but in reality, she was always reminding him that he was a blind man who couldn’t take care of himself. Actually still playing the idea of his marriage, how dare to think. He was again withdrawn from the marriage, again blind, it is not her turn to dictate.
But the father also praised her virtuous, caring stepson …… is really appetite.
Although his grandfather has been inviting famous doctors all over the world, hoping to save his right eye, but he no longer holds much hope. But he just wanted to occupy the position of the world’s son and not let that woman get what she wanted. He couldn’t let her kill his own mother and replace her, and then let her son come to steal his own things.
Even if he didn’t have a son in the future, he would still find a way to pass on one of Second Uncle’s grandsons. Just once promised to help cousin and aunt big thing is not easy to realize ……
At this time, the maid outside the door reported, “Master Shizi, Steward Top Mountain is seeking an audience.”
“Come in.”
A youth of eighteen or nineteen years old walked in and whispered a few words.
Meng Zhimo’s face became even more somber, “That person can’t stop, she’s looking for someone! You cut that person off halfway down the road ……”
