The Xu Mansion was in chaos at this time!
Cen Meimei, no! Now it was Qin Meiniang, the mother of Heng Ge'er, holding her sleeping child in her arms, walking slowly on the corridor, listening to the various voices of people around her, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: Isn't this too bloody? Why did she have to be in the body of a mother? And it seems that this body is not respected at all. Her husband has already arranged a second wife before he died, and Miss Zheng dared to abuse her child before she was officially married!
Poor child! Cen Meimei couldn't help but lower her head and kiss the chubby and cute child in her arms. If your father doesn't love you, your stepmother will definitely not love you! Since I have become your mother and have come back, I will do my best to protect you, ensure that you grow up healthy and happy, and help you get everything you deserve!
A few lights flashed in front of them, and a group of maids and servants surrounded the Third Grandma Ning Rulan, who was temporarily in charge of the affairs of the Hou Mansion, and hurried over here. Ning Rulan said with a pale face as she walked, "Look carefully, are they really going to the inner courtyard? If they alarm the old lady and the madam, it will be terrible!"
She walked briskly, with no ornaments on her head. She was wearing a plain white dress and a white wool satin cape, and looked particularly elegant and beautiful.
Someone in front exclaimed: "Grandma!"
All the lanterns were consciously raised higher. Under the dazzling light, the grandmother in her gorgeous attire stood in front of everyone with a smile on her face, as gorgeous, charming, elegant and gentle as usual. The person tightly in her arms was the sleeping Heng'er!
"Sister-in-law!" Although Ning Rulan was usually very close to Qin Meiniang, she was frightened and her voice trembled. Even though she was accompanied by more than 20 people and the maids held up lanterns with various talismans attached, she still couldn't help but be tongue-tied and stammered:
"If you miss your nephew, just take a look at him, but don't take him away, it will hurt him!"
Qin Meiniang smiled slightly: "I won't harm him, he is my son!"
The voice was gentle and melodious, just like usual. Everyone was confused: the great grandmother was a real person with a visible and vocal voice. Her movements were gentle and dignified, and her smile was genuine and amiable. Standing opposite her, there was no feeling of terror at all. She shouldn't be a ghost!
"Mei Niang, give Heng'er to me!"
A gentle and steady male voice came from the left. Qin Meiniang looked sideways and saw the tall and handsome Xu Junying. Xu Junying reached out and pulled the ribbon under his neck. The long mink cloak on his shoulders, with his body temperature, was tied around Qin Meiniang. He wanted to take the child, but Qin Meiniang refused to give him the child and held the child tightly in her arms. Xu Junying couldn't grab the child from her. He narrowed his eyes slightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
"Who are you?" Qin Meiniang stretched her arms, lifted the child higher, and asked casually.
She vaguely guessed who this man was, otherwise why would he give her a cloak in front of everyone? She felt much warmer and more comfortable, but she refused to appreciate it. To be honest, she was a little unhappy. The first impression this man gave her was very good, but from the descriptions of the women, it seemed that he was just waiting for his wife to die so that he could remarry as soon as possible. He didn't care about his own son and let Miss Zheng do whatever she wanted. Did Miss Zheng really win his heart
Xu Junying raised his eyebrows: "Mei Niang, you..."
Ning Rulan was also surprised: "He is the eldest brother! Sister-in-law, don't you recognize the eldest brother?"
Is it really him? Qin Meiniang's husband, the biological father of the little girl in her arms!
Qin Meiniang's thick and long eyelashes trembled slightly, her eyes were as gentle as the moon, she looked at Xu Junying, and heard her own voice soft and weak:
"It turned out to be my husband..."
Xu Junying, the Marquis of Weiyuan, followed his father to the army at the age of fourteen. At the age of fifteen, he killed the enemy and made meritorious service, and seized the title of major general. Until his father died on the battlefield, he inherited the title at the age of eighteen, and still stood alone at the border. The name of the Marquis of Weiyuan shocked the surrounding countries in the northwest, and they dared not to provoke easily. He has experienced countless life and death, and he is not afraid of ghosts and gods at all. He thinks it is nonsense to say that his wife's body was blown up after death. When he saw Qin Meiniang standing in front of him, he immediately understood: she was not dead! Maybe she was sick for too long, and because she was eager to die, she held her breath for some reason and was put into the coffin as a dead person. If the coffin lid had been closed, she would definitely die. In the evening, he asked someone to open the coffin lid and recheck the burial objects in the coffin. Unexpectedly, she got a breath of fresh air and was resurrected!
Xu Junying looked at the pretty and charming Qin Meiniang, with a bitter smile on his lips: His wife came back to life, as a husband, should he be happy or worried
No matter what, she is alive, so she should at least show some joy on the surface!
At the other end of the corridor, several maids and servants came running in. A slightly plump old woman and a pretty little maid took one look at Qin Meiniang, then rushed over crying, hugged her legs and knelt on the ground:
"Grandma! You died unjustly, please take us all away..."
Xu Junying's face turned cold, and he shouted, "Why are you howling? Look carefully, the eldest young master's wife is a living person. Whoever dares to say the word death again!"
The old woman and the little maid fell silent, and hurriedly searched Qin Meiniang's body, and found that the young lady's body was indeed warm and soft. They were so shocked that their eyes almost fell out, but then they were overjoyed as if they had found a treasure. They were so sad, surprised, and happy that they almost fainted. Fortunately, a maid and a servant came over and supported them, so they did not fall to the ground.
Qin Meiniang was annoyed by their touching, so she dodged without making a sound and asked softly, "Who are you all?"
The fat woman was stunned and said, "My eldest young lady, I am your wet nurse, Wang Mama. This is Cui Xi, your personal maid, and there are Cui Lian, Cui Si... You brought all of us from your mother's home, how come you don't recognize us?"
Oh, it’s one of ours, that’s good.
Qin Meiniang said weakly: "Have I been ill for too long? After going through this ordeal, my brain is broken and I can't remember anything!"
The fat woman and the maids Cuixi wiped their tears. Xu Junying frowned and said, "Cuixi, please carry Heng down. The eldest young lady is tired, so help her back to her room to rest first. Someone go to the second gate and ask the servant to ask Doctor Qiao to come and check the eldest young lady's pulse! Don't alarm the ladies and the old lady first, we'll talk about everything tomorrow!"
Cui Xi and Wang Mama hurried over to hold the little boy, and several people helped Qin Meiniang back to Qinghua Courtyard where she lived along the way she had taken. Ning Rulan watched them leave, bowed to Xu Junying, and dismissed everyone, splitting up into groups and heading in different directions.
In the corridor that had returned to silence, Xu Junying stood there with his hands behind his back. In the light of the snow, his face was gloomy and his mind was a little confused.
The first sight of his resurrected wife made him feel like he was back to the first time they met, his heart pounding in his chest. The strange thing was that this time it was not because of her peerless beauty, but because of her eyes. Unlike her usual weak and timid eyes, which were eager to dodge, the gaze that contained so much emotion swept across him, making him feel numb all over as if someone had hit a certain acupuncture point.
It was still the same Qin Meiniang, charming and beautiful like a fairy. He fell in love with her at first sight in Minghu. He would rather be scolded by his grandmother and abandon his childhood sweetheart cousin. He put a lot of thought into asking the emperor to grant him a marriage. He thought he had got what he wanted and married such a beautiful woman, and they would love each other and spend the rest of their lives together. But who knew that it would turn out like this in the end!
I had already let her go, and I could still feel sorry for her if she died, but now that she is alive, I don’t know how to face her.
Qin Meiniang has been married to the Xu family for more than a year, but she really doesn't know how to cultivate interpersonal relationships. Her grandmother, Madam Zhuang, doesn't like her, and her mother, Madam Zheng, doesn't necessarily love her either. Her mother just died and wasn't even carried out of the house, but her family was already arranging for her to remarry. Her grandmother has already talked to him, and her mother was even more foresighted. She brought her cousin Zheng Meiyu from the Zheng family to Meiniang early and put her in Meiniang's room, saying that she was taking care of her sick cousin-in-law. In fact, cousin Zheng spent more time with him, and he didn't reject his cousin, but tried to accommodate and indulge her as much as possible. It's no wonder that the maids and servants who came with Meiniang's dowry cried and said that the eldest grandmother died unjustly. He knew what he was doing as if he were a mirror in his heart.
After Cousin Zheng, who else came for the title of Wife of Marquis Weiyuan
A slightly pale, beautiful and lovely little pointed face flashed in Xu Junying's mind. He sighed slightly. His grandmother said that the disease was caused by him. If that was true, shouldn't he pay it back
At the end of the corridor, a sturdy young man in dark clothes came over. He was Xu Junying's long-time attendant Baoju. The master and servant didn't need to say anything. After exchanging glances, they turned around and walked towards the outer courtyard at the same time.
Zheng Meiyu had just arrived at another path in the winding corridor, but she was still unable to catch up with Xu Junying. She opened her mouth to shout but couldn't. She could only bite her lip and watch him walk away, her face full of frustration.
Qin Mei Niang, wasn't she dead? She was already silent and had no heartbeat at all, so how could she come out of the coffin alive
The legitimate eldest young lady is not dead, what should I do? (To be continued)
