Chapter 42: A Woman’s Fear of Marrying the Wrong Man

Meng Yue is still the same as what she saw in her previous life, with a pink face and peach cheeks, delicate and attractive, wearing a smoky red jacquard brocade pastel, as beautiful as a fairy fluttering in the sunlight. What has not changed, there are a few threads of sadness in the eyes.

Meng Yue saw her brother, also smiled gently, “Big brother actually gained some weight, how not easy. You ah, you should relax your mind a bit, don’t be born in bliss and don’t know bliss.”

Meng Zhimo smiled and lowered himself to pick up Huang Xin.

“Great uncle.” Huang Xin cried out in a sticky voice, and used her small face to get next to Meng Zhimo’s big face, causing Meng Zhimo to laugh a few times.

He rarely laughed this freely, and at a glance, he liked this little niece very much.

Meng Yue laughed and said, “Grandmother went to the Temple of the Annunciation for three days to copy the sutras, and father-in-law asked me to come and see grandfather.”

If father-in-law did not specifically instruct to see grandfather, she would have preferred to visit her mother and grandmother to speak from the heart. Seeing her brother’s happy face when he saw his daughter, he again felt it was good to come here.

Grandmother Meng Yue is strict and rarely leaves the house. Meng Zhimo first wondered why her sister would bring her daughter to see them today, but it turned out that her mother-in-law was not at home.

Meng Yue stepped forward and pulled Jiang Yishi’s hand and smiled, “You’re Sister Jiang, aren’t you, such a handsome girl.”

With that, she wiped off a pair of jade bracelets with excellent water penetration from her wrist and gave them to Jiang Yishi to put on. She was thanking Jiang Yishi’s father for saving her eldest brother.

In this life, Jiang Yishi hadn’t relied on Meng Ruyu, so Meng Yue only had good feelings for her.

“Thank you sister Meng.”

She called her sister, so of course Jiang Yishi couldn’t call her “Second Grandma Huang”, but called her “Sister”.

Seeing a beautiful woman, Jojo screamed excitedly again, “Flower, there’s a beautiful woman in the north, the so-called Yiren, Miss Jiang …….”

Jojo’s screams amused all the people inside and outside the house, even the two little daughters laughed out loud.

Meng Yue pulled Huang Xin, who wanted to go and tease the bird, into the house to salute the old master.

The old master happily took his little granddaughter in his lap and sat down.

When she was married, she was as happy as a bird in the sky, but now she even smiles with bitterness, and she is much more haggard. Women are afraid of marrying the wrong man, a good girl but found such a bad in-laws …….

Jiang Yishi accompanied them to say a few words, then said to go to the kitchen to see how the meal was done. In fact, she is feeling hungry again, afraid of public stomach growling, that can lose adults.

Jiang Yishi went into the kitchen and ate a bowl full of marinated meat and two marinated eggs. Now that she was fuller, she wouldn’t be able to resist eating too much during dinner and make people laugh. She wanted to eat the fragrant steamed fish even more, but unfortunately there were only two, so she forced herself to hold back and didn’t move.

After eating, she made up her makeup in the kitchen again before going out.

The midday meal was set up in the west wing hall room.

Three men at one table, three women with two children at one table, the subordinates in the outer courtyard set up three tables.

Jiang Yixi effort to hold back the craving, the steamed fish or most of it into her mouth.

After the meal, the two children took a lunch break, Jiang Yishi and Meng Zhiye, Xia’s all saw that the old man and Meng Zhimo wanted to talk to Meng Yue alone, and the few of them walked out very consciously.

Meng Ruyue teased the birds on the porch, while Jiang Yishi and Xia went to the main room to talk.

Xia quietly laughed and said, “Great-uncle Mother likes Sister Jiang’s gentleness and intelligence, and is grateful to General Jiang for saving Great-uncle, she’s looking for someone for Sister, and seems to have a candidate already.”

She really felt that First Lady Meng was helping Jiang Yishi to say good things about her family, and felt that Jiang Yishi with a low family status would definitely like it, that’s why she said it.

Jiang Yishi’s heart sank. That woman was the best at pretending, virtuous on the surface but ruthless on the inside, fooling almost everyone. She hated Meng Ruimo for blocking Meng Ruyu’s path, hated Jiang Chen for saving Meng Ruimo, even if Jiang Yishi didn’t hit Meng Ruyu’s idea, it’s impossible to give Jiang Yishi what a good person’s family, but the words are still good. Look at Meng Yue, pro father and grandparents are in, but also so dependent on her, said the relatives how bad.

Don’t be Jiang old lady does not hit her idea, Meng big lady again to cross a bar.

Jiang Yishi twisted her handkerchief and pretended to be shy, thinking in her heart how to make that woman less nosy.

The best way to make her less nosy was of course to ask Grand Master Meng to do something. I’ll tell Meng Zhimo about this some other day and have him help convince the old master.

At the end of the hour, Meng Yue and the others came out. Meng Yue’s eyes were red and swollen, and she looked like she had been crying. Meng Ruimo’s face was gloomy, and Old Master’s face was also not good.

Meng Zhuyue’s family and Meng Yue’s mother and daughter took the car directly back to the capital, Jiang Yishi sent them each a food box of rose crystal cake.

Meng Zhuyue also invited the old master and Meng Zhimo back to the house to stay for a while, saying that the old lady missed them.

Elder Lady Meng has been in poor health since she was young, and has to receive regular pulse diagnosis and needles from the Imperial Doctor, so it’s not convenient for her to come to the manor.

Jiang Yishi and Meng Zhimo sent them out of the courtyard.

Huang Xin didn’t want to go home, as soon as she was carried onto the carriage by her nursemaid, she began to cry, screaming, “Great Grandfather, Great Uncle, Sister doesn’t want to go home.”

Meng Zhimo lifted the curtains to persuade the little girl, “Xin’er, listen to me, some other day uncle will send someone to fetch your mother and you to come out to play.” He also said to Meng Yue, “Sister, think about what Grandfather and I said.”

Meng Yue nodded with red eyes and shook her head.

Huang Xin sobbed, “I still want to come here to play, eat Pretty Gao Gao, and listen to Jojo.”

Meng Zhimo stroked her little bun head and agreed with a smile, “Good.”

Jiang Yishi also smiles, “Auntie will make more pretty cakes then.”

An Ge’er in the other car also yells, “There’s me, I also want to eat beautiful cakes.”

Jiang Yishi smiled and agreed, “Good.”

Those carriages disappeared around the corner of the courtyard wall.

Meng Zhimo couldn’t see that far, and only looked over at Jiang Yishi when he heard the sound of bone-crunching wheels going away.

In a deep voice, she said, “My sister is simple and virtuous, just three years old and living with the Grand Madam. She trusted the Grand Madam so much, yet she was pushed into the fire pit. It’s also my fault that I didn’t protect her, and at one point, I even had a grudge against her.”

When she was a girl, Meng Yue was known as the number one beauty after the “Two Songs” of the Jin He Dynasty, the first of the “Four Beauties” of the capital, and the eldest granddaughter of the God of War, Meng Ling, so there were really hundreds of women in one family seeking a daughter.

Not to mention the princes and nobles, is the crown prince and the second prince, the fourth prince has also played her idea. Because of the old Duke’s failure to take sides, and the Emperor’s unwillingness to involve the Crown Prince with the Meng family, Meng Yue did not marry into the Royal Family.

The Meng family picked the eye, in the Meng Yue fourteen years old that year, by the eldest Mrs. Meng made the decision to set up the Huang family’s marriage.

The Huang family is a hundred years old, and most of their children are successful. The previous dynasty has produced many important ministers, the current dynasty has produced a minister, a minister, an emperor, and countless other officials.

Huang Cheng row two, his mother is Pinghe County Princess, quite the Empress Dowager’s favorite. His father was a minister and trusted by the emperor. Huang Cheng won the Lifted Man at the age of sixteen, and he is also good-looking. In the eyes of outsiders, Meng Yue and Huang Cheng are a match made in heaven.

Meng Yue and the Meng family other than Meng Ruimo were very satisfied.
