Rebirth of filling the house

As expected, Baolan was speechless, and followed Xu Ruoshui to Chunhui Courtyard with Yan'er. The yard was already much livelier than in the morning, and many peonies, symbolizing wealth, were moved from the greenhouse to create a backdrop, and the fragrance of the flowers was overflowing.

, were scattered all over the courtyard. In addition, there were several banquet tables, including gourd chicken, chrysanthemum-flavored fat crab and other expensive dishes, as well as fragrant glutinous rice dumplings and other specialty snacks. Mrs. Meng was actually willing to invite the most famous restaurant in Lincheng.

Xinghualou came to the house to prepare a banquet.

At this time, some ladies gathered together to play cards, and several young ladies talked together. Mrs. Meng drank tea and talked with Mrs. Huang and Mrs. Wang, who were relatively easy to talk to, but Mrs. Yu from last time was missing.

"Greetings to Madam in Late Autumn," Xu Ruoshui knelt down and saluted. Wang Mengjiao followed behind him to say hello. Mrs. Meng had actually seen it early in the morning, but she didn't say anything. She looked at Xu Ruoshui, wondering why she had brought this person here.

"My cousin came here specifically to congratulate the second young master today, and stopped by to say hello to mother. It's a bit rude, don't be surprised, mother." Xu Ruoshui explained the purpose of her visit, and at the same time she felt that Fang Liying behind Mrs. Meng looked unhappy. Wang Mengjiao

She already knew the number.

"Of course," Mrs. Meng thought for a while and said, "the visitor is a guest, Miss Wang can do as she pleases."

Wang Mengjiao squatted half-body as a thank you. Because everyone was looking at her, she could only lower her eyebrows and lower her eyes, not daring to speak to others. She heard Mrs. Huang ask Mrs. Meng softly, "This Miss Wang really looks like Zhou Zheng. I don't know."

Are you married yet?"

Mrs. Wang interjected, "Could it be that Sister Huang wants to make arrangements for the bastard in the family again?"

"Hey, isn't that right? It's not easy for me to be a legitimate mother. My master has been nagging me all day long, saying that I don't want to see a few bastards. It's really unfair. Now, those girls hide away when they see me.

I’m afraid I’ll ask more questions.”

After Mrs. Huang finished speaking, everyone laughed, knowing that it was purely a joke.

Mrs. Meng was very concerned about her son's feelings, because she had already promised Meng Tianqi to take Wang Mengjiao as her concubine, so she said to the ladies, "I have already promised her, so don't pry, just be honest and call me a matchmaker."

Go into the house and bring some picture albums of girls to your door and pick them out carefully."

"Sister Meng must have taken a liking to her. I'd better not compete with her," Mrs. Huang whispered in Mrs. Wang's ear. "In terms of financial resources and appearance, none of us can compare to the Meng family."

"Yes, yes..." Mrs. Wang nodded.

All the distinguished guests were invited, so the ordinary personal maids replaced the little maids and took up the duties of standing guard. The remaining work of serving tea and water was done by daughters-in-law such as Xu Ruoshui, and it was all a matter of face.

Son, so in addition to these two banquets, Mrs. Meng called her Xu Ruoshui.

Wang Mengjiao felt a little bored, so she walked away by herself, deeply regretting why she had followed her. The peonies were in full bloom, so she pretended to be bored and admired the flowers. Unexpectedly, a sarcastic voice came from behind her, "If flowers don’t bloom for a hundred days, people

There is no good day, has Miss Wang ever heard of it?"

Wang Mengjiao turned around and saw Fang Liying standing proudly behind her, "What do you mean by this?"

"Don't you understand what I mean? Don't think that you can seduce people with just a little bit of beauty. No matter how beautiful you are, your beauty will fade one day. I would like to advise the girl that it is better to find a rich family to marry and become the first wife.

It's better to be a house-filler than to be someone's concubine." Fang Liying folded a bunch of peonies and played with them in her hands.

"In this case, why is my aunt willing to be a concubine?" Wang Mengjiao retorted with a sneer, "Does it mean that my aunt covets the position of the second young mistress? However, the second young mistress is the best choice to be the mistress of the house in the future. How could my aunt do this?

It depends on the status of someone else’s first wife or someone who fills a house.”

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Fang Liying was seen through, and her voice rose a lot, attracting others to look over. Of course Xu Ruoshui also saw the situation in the yard, and said with a busy smile, "Those two

We must have had a very pleasant conversation, ladies, don't be offended, I'll go out and have a look."

After saying that, everyone nodded. Even Mrs. Meng felt that Xu Ruoshui did an excellent job, "Go, you can enjoy the flowers with them, don't stay here with me, an old woman."

Xu Ruoshui left the flower hall after being blessed as a wife, and found a place to stay where he could hear the two people talking.

"No matter how hard you try, I will never let my cousin take you as my concubine again."

"Tsk tsk tsk, Aunt Fang, you must have forgotten your identity. How much power can a concubine have to decide whether her husband will take another concubine? Don't wait until Brother Qi takes another concubine. I'm not the only one. I want to see what you do.

"

"You...you bitch, you only think about men all day long, how shameless are you?" Fang Liying was speechless and could only utter evil words.

"Hahaha... bitch? You say I am a bitch? Just wait and see whether Brother Qi likes me, a bitch, or you, a chaste and fierce woman." In comparison, Wang Mengjiao was more confident.

Meng Tianqi held her tightly in his hand, which made Xu Ruoshui curious. In terms of appearance, the two of them were about the same, but in terms of familiarity, the guests liked Fang Liying better.

"Bang!" Fang Liying took advantage of Wang Mengjiao's complacency and slapped her away with her palm. The sound was loud enough to draw everyone's attention to the two of them again.

"Why did you start moving your hands while you were talking?"

"Yeah, what's going on?"

Xu Ruoshui didn't expect that Fang Liying was more courageous, so she hurriedly came out and said to everyone, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, the girls started fighting for a little flower, and they lost it. Don't think nonsense."

It clearly means that there is no three hundred taels of silver here.

"What's going on, you two?" Mrs. Meng couldn't sit still this time. She left the guests to talk and came out to see the situation.

Xu Ruoshui hurriedly supported Mrs. Meng, "Mom, just go back and sit down. My daughter-in-law is here, and my aunt is joking with Miss Wang."

"Are you kidding?" Mrs. Meng's eyes lingered on Wang Mengjiao's face, "You're already making moves, and you're still joking. Late Qiu, do you think I'm blind?"

Xu Ruoshui shut her mouth appropriately, feeling inexplicably happy.

"Miss Wang, please go back first. We are all congratulating each other today. If you want to watch a show, you have to wait to go to the lotus pond. If you stay here, you will only make us lose face." Mrs. Meng said to Wang Mengjiao with a cold face,

This clearly favors Fang Liying.

"lady...."

"Okay," Mrs. Meng had already turned around with Wang Mengjiao, "Don't say anything, don't force me to change my mind."

Wang Mengjiao was dumbfounded. Why did she come here to ask for trouble without saying anything and was slapped? The most important thing was that she was humiliated and didn't even have anyone to help her talk. "This..." She touched her still hot cheek and said,

I wanted to cry but couldn't hold back my tears, so I had to cover my mouth and ran out.
