After Xu Ruoshui finished speaking, he paid attention to Mrs. Meng's reaction.

In contrast, Mrs. Meng has no other choice. If she doesn't marry Fang Liying, then she has lost her promise to her sister. This is something she, a matron of the house, will not do anyway, if anyone knows

The majesty has been lost.

"There's nothing wrong with that contract. Let me think about it again. Maybe it's a temporary solution," Mrs. Meng said with a smile on her face. "You do have an exquisite idea. How come I didn't notice it before."

"Mom needs a daughter-in-law. Everything has gone well for you in the past, and it is a blessing for the daughter-in-law to be filial by her side." Elderly people like to be flattered by others, and Mrs. Meng is no exception.

If Mrs. Meng had treated Xu Ruoshui differently just to please Mr. Meng before, then this time she really caught her eye, "Your aunt and cousin will come over in a while. You can stay for lunch."

"Yes, thank you, mother," Xu Ruoshui thanked her with a flattered expression, but in her heart she was looking forward to what cousin Fang Liying's expression would be like when she heard the good news.

It is indeed a happy event. This is the first time that Mrs. Meng has been close to Xu Ruoshui. She has a stepping stone. Although her status is not high, she is one step closer to her goal.

The aunt and Fang Liying came before lunch, and there was no maid with them. Both mother and daughter's faces were happy. When they saw Xu Ruoshui standing next to Mrs. Meng, they both showed displeasure. The aunt was even more displeased.

He asked, "Sister, why is she here?" There wasn't even a title, just 'she'.

"Sister," Mrs. Meng greeted her concubine, and the two sat down together. Xu Ruoshui went to the door to ask the maid to bring some tea, and told Zi Yan to go back first, and there was no need to wait. She was naturally happy and twisted her waist.

Gone.

Baomei brought some plum blossom teapots, and the three serious cups were all pink with gold accents. Xu Ruoshui smiled inwardly, "I'll do it," and took the gilt rosewood tray with both hands. She was afraid that Baomei would be innocently implicated.

.

Xu Ruoshui walked into the flower hall, and Fang Liying's sweet voice just broke into her ears, "Aunt, how can Ying'er be my concubine..." Xu Ruoshui's entry made her pause and stop.

Xu Ruoshui set up three teacups, poured tea one by one, and then brought it to the two people sitting next to her one by one.

"Ying'er, of course my aunt doesn't want you to be my concubine. Although it is a last resort, it is the most effective way. If you want to follow the wedding ceremony, you will have to wait for three years. My aunt really likes you and is reluctant to marry you.

Give it to someone else." Fang Liying is not young, she is already sixteen years old. If she waits for three years, she will be an old girl. Mrs. Meng just seized on her weakness.

"Then Ying'er can't be a concubine. If I tell you, I'll be laughed to death by my sisters at home, and my mother can't stay in that house anymore. Aunt, please help Ying'er think of a way. If it's a concubine, Ying'er would rather

I won't marry." Fang Liying got into a childish tantrum, and Mrs. Meng herself was not very energetic, so such a fuss would give her a headache.

"Yes, sister, you are the one who makes the decision in this family. Asking Qi'er to marry Ying'er as soon as possible is just a small matter. Is it so difficult?" The concubine signaled her daughter to stop messing around and speak herself.

"Sister, you know that our Meng family is also well-known in Lincheng. If this spreads out, how can Qi'er gain a foothold outside in the future?" After hearing what the aunt said, Mrs. Meng put the words she was about to put in her mouth.

The given teacup was put back on the table, "You don't want to be criticized after Ying'er gets married, right?"
