Chapter 160 – The Best Reason

Meng Zhimo and Jiang Yixi entered the east side house hand in hand, and the sound of the two of them laughing and joking floated out of the small window.

Seeing such a loving young couple, Sister Wu in the hall room narrowed her eyes with a smile. In the beginning, my aunt and the second master were so in love, but it’s a pity that both of them were so good and had short lives.

She looked out from the small window, the water sweeping Xiaozhu’s hand paused, quickly glanced toward the small window in the east side of the house, and hurriedly buried her head to do her work again.

Sister Wu secretly spat, this dead girl is even more obnoxious than Shui Lu in the beginning.

At three minutes past the hour, Meng Ruimo and Jiang Yishi took Hua Hua to Fu An Hall, and two small sedans were already parked outside the door.

Meng Ruimo does not like to sit in the sedan chair, Jiang Yishi held the flowers sat on a top.

Just as they entered Fu An Hall’s hanging flower door, they bumped into Meng Ru Mu, who was in a hurry to go to the front yard for class.

He didn’t even look at Jiang Yishi, arched his hand for Meng Ruimo and Jiang Yishi, and called out, “Big brother.”

He staggered past them.

Meng Ruimo and Jiang Yishi didn’t bother with him either. Previously, even though Meng Ruimo didn’t like Meng Ruyu, he would still greet him with a cold face and say, “Third brother.” Now that he was rude to Jiang Yishi, he didn’t want to talk to him.

In the hall room, the old couple is sitting on the Luohan bed, Fu’s mother and daughter, Meng’s second wife’s mother and daughter, Meng’s third wife’s mother and daughter, Meng Yue’s mother and daughter are all here, only Meng’s second grandmother’s mother and son are not here yet.

Previously, the Meng Mansion had also hired a gentleman to teach several of the girls lessons and zither and chess. It wasn’t until the previous year, when the girls had all turned twelve, that the gentleman was dismissed.

Meng Zhimo and the two of them greeted the old couple, and Hua Hua immediately leapt onto the old lady’s lap, amusing the old couple.

Meng Hua ignored Jiang Yishi and expressed her dissatisfaction. She was a little afraid of Meng Zhimo, otherwise she would have been even more rude to Jiang Yishi.

Jiang Yishi was oblivious, joking with the elders and the eldest and youngest aunts.

When Third Grandma Meng’s mother and son arrived, the crowd joked and laughed some more before getting up and leaving, only Meng Hua and Hua Hua remained there.

Jiang Yishi guessed that Meng Hua must have stayed to complain.

Meng Zhimo and his wife went back to the Floating Life Hall and sat in the side room to talk quietly. Jiang Yishi talks about Li Zhenbao’s reasons for not being a princess, and how she thinks Li Zhenbao and Zheng Yu are a couple.

Meng Zhimo was also amused by Li Zhenbao’s reasoning.

“That little ninny, her thinking is different from normal people.” And Zheng instructed, “You shouldn’t make a mess of things, Zheng Yu and her are not a good match. In terms of Li Zhenbao’s character, she should be a princess, Shang extra horse harnessed by the side of a team, and find a man who has a soft temper and is willing to tolerate her for the rest of her life. Zheng Yu’s temperament is so hard that she won’t be able to hold on to Li Zhen Bao. Moreover, Zheng Yu had said before that he liked gentle and beautiful girls. Li Zhenbao is a good girl, but neither of those two conditions are quiet available.”

Jiang Yishi didn’t quite agree, “Think about General Meng Zhimo, they say that you have a strange and temperamental temperament, but you are so good to me. It can be seen that for the sake of the beloved, temper can be changed.”

After saying that, she even smiled smugly. She added, “If Jumbo and Big Brother Zheng are interested in each other, it’s not certain that they will change their temperament and tolerate each other. I don’t think Big Brother Zheng would be that shallow and only pay attention to looks. Moreover, women are big, and Jumbo will definitely grow more and more beautiful.”

She recalled Li Zhenbao in her previous life, which was four years later when she turned seventeen. With a moderate figure and features that had grown open and soft, she wasn’t considered pretty, but her distinctive aura and makeup made people unconsciously want to look at her a few more times, much stronger than many noblewomen with empty looks.

Meng Ruimo is not good to say that Zheng Yu once said that he wanted to find a perfect beauty when he was at the border, shook his head and said, “They are not the same as us, we have experienced the hardships and difficulties that other people have not experienced, and we are willing to change for each other only after we have seen each other’s goodness. But people without special experiences mainly look at looks and character.

“From a selfish point of view, I’m also willing for Li Zhenbao and Zheng Yu to get together, then Li Zhenbao will be completely on the same team as us. But if they become a spiteful couple, it is not good in public and private …… so, if they see each other’s good, we also try to create conditions for them to see each other’s good, and we bless them when they finally become a couple. But if they have no intention of doing so, we do not want to go to the hand. One side has the intention and one side has no intention, it’s a very painful thing.”

Jiang Yishi thought about it and nodded in agreement. Still, she added, “If Zheng Yuru misses out on Li Zhenbao because of his looks, it’s his loss.”

Meng Zhimo said, “Each person’s view is different, thy arsenic, his honey.” He came over his face and kissed Jiang Yishi, laughing, “Still I have vision and see the good …… of my daughter-in-law.”

The two reclined on the kang and played around for a while. Only when Sister Wu in the hall room coughed several times did Meng Zhimo sit up unhappily.

In the days that followed, Meng Ruimo stayed at the Floating Life Residence all day long, except for going to the Fu An Hall to pay his respects and eat. He had ten days of wedding leave and took a few more days off before going to the camp on July 11th to answer the call of duty.

He knew that doing so would cause people to criticize him for being unproductive, and that he had been bored with his daughter-in-law’s side since he got married. But he just wants to be bored with his daughter-in-law, people can say whatever they like.

Jiang Yixi also knew that she should take the initiative to persuade Meng Jimo to go to the outer study to read and study, or to deal with official business and common affairs. But Meng Zhimo was willing to guard her, and she was not willing to leave Meng Zhimo. Even after Sister Wu mentioned it, she still didn’t whisk Meng Jimo away, and others loved to talk about it.

Only they knew in their hearts that this was the best reason to give Fu the best reason to strike them, so that she would strike as soon as possible. As long as Fu’s hand, no matter what the result is, it is their victory.

They dare to be so defiant of rumors, of course, is also based on the big head of the old Duke Meng’s absolute trust and favor to them.

At the beginning of the eighth day of the sixth month, the old Duke of State came to the Brocade Garden to tend to the flowers and plants. A few days ago, his grandson was newly married, so he didn’t have the heart to come and get in the way. From now on, he would come to the garden every day for half an hour to tend to the flowers and plants, and also had his mother-in-law carry the two pots of red fruits that were kept in his yard.

He also became more convinced that his eldest grandson’s daughter-in-law had a connection with flowers. He served those two pots of red fruits as if they were ancestors, and the fruits were only as big as apricots. While the red fruits of the floating residence, there are several have grown to the size of a peach, and there are two hanging a few threads of red.

The old man laughed freely, “When most of these fruits are red, I’ll take them to the outer courtyard and invite old man Wang and a few other old guys to come to the mansion to enjoy the flowers, and envy them to death.”

The old man is good and strong. He was the most capable in war before, and now he’s going to be the most capable in planting flowers.

At first Hua Hua was still happily grabbing his pants leg, but once she heard this she was reluctant and meowed.

Jiang Yishi busily gave it a wink and smiled at the old man, ”Grandfather, Jumbo said it’s not called a red fruit, it’s called a tomato. It’s also not a flower to admire, but a delicious and tasty vegetable and vegetable, there are many ways to eat it ……”

The old master didn’t want to take it out and show it off, and laughed, “Hasn’t our family done a good thing for the people of Da Liang? Raise it well, and when it matures, I’ll take a few to honor the Emperor.”
