The eldest lady would strongly persuade Mengshi to go on an expedition, which is normal.
Husbands and wives can be valuable. Although the name of the duke's wife is nice, the Zhenguo duke's mansion only has no real power. In the capital where there are so many dignitaries, a duke's wife with only a title is really nothing, she just wants to get it. For the benefit, it is also difficult to pull out your own family. I don't blame the eldest lady for thinking, it's just...
Mrs. Meng can't accept it!
The wealth and power that the eldest lady wants is to fight with her son's life!
Don't say accept, Mrs. Meng, it's good not to tear the eldest lady.
Madam Meng glared at the eldest lady, and with just one glance, the eldest lady turned pale with fright, and stepped back again and again, "Mother, I, did I say something wrong?"
"What? Don't you know you're wrong? You're not only wrong, you're wrong." When Mrs. Meng was young, she was also a decisive figure, but she became more restrained as she got older. A person who usually seems to be friendly and kind, once he gets angry, the anger is definitely not something that the eldest lady can bear.
The eldest lady has long been timid, but she can't afford to lose this person, and she insisted: "Mother, where did I go wrong? This, this is the will of the sage, the sage wants to reuse the master, isn't this something to be happy about? "
"Don't say it so nicely, my wife knows exactly what you're thinking." Madam Meng disregarded the presence of servants, and directly embarrassed the eldest lady, "If you think that Mrs. Guo's fate is not worthy of you, you can do it now. Go back to your mother's house, I don't pay attention to my elder daughter-in-law."
He almost didn't say that he was going to divorce his wife, but Duke Zhenguo didn't seem to hear it when he was Meng, don't say anything to speak for the eldest lady, and didn't even give a look.
The eldest lady couldn't hold it any longer, she knelt on the ground with a thud, begging for mercy regardless: "Mother, the daughter-in-law is wrong, the daughter-in-law knows it is wrong, the daughter-in-law will never dare."
"Do you know what's wrong? What's wrong with you?" Madam Meng sneered, her turbid eyes burst into a fierce light, and the eldest lady didn't dare to look at her, she just said casually: "My daughter-in-law will never dare to talk anymore, never again. I don't dare to ask about the man's affairs, and I also asked my mother to spare my daughter-in-law this time." As he spoke, tears rolled down his face, and it was pitiful that he couldn't tell, but...
The second lady and the third lady didn't mean to plead for her, they lowered their heads and pretended not to see it.
The eldest lady is really ugly. If outsiders see it, it will also lose the face of the Meng family. When the husband and wife were together, they couldn't see it when they were blind, and stepped forward and persuaded: "Mother, she is a woman with long hair and short knowledge. Please don't have the same knowledge as her."
He has already embraced his grandson, and it is impossible to divorce his wife at this time.
"Mother, my daughter-in-law knows I'm wrong, please forgive my daughter-in-law once." The eldest lady didn't care about her face and kept begging for mercy.
At this time, the eldest lady is extremely fortunate that her son and daughter-in-law are not here, otherwise she will have no face in the future, and she will pose as an elder in front of her son and daughter-in-law.
Mrs. Meng didn't really want to divorce her, but she was just using this to beat the eldest lady. Seeing that the eldest lady was really bad, she said coldly, "Get up."
Only then did the second lady and the third lady dare to step forward and help the eldest lady up.
The eldest lady stood up and said anxiously, "Thank you, mother."
Mrs. Meng ignored her and said, "The second and third daughter-in-law, help your sister-in-law down. In the future, don't get involved in other people's affairs. If I see you in a hurry, don't use your mind. On the right path, I'll keep you busy and distracted."
Mrs. Meng did not clarify the words, but the three ladies understood the meaning. The old lady was dissatisfied with their previous attitude towards Lin Chujiu, so she used the question to beat them. If they don't know the practical work, I am afraid there will be more women in the backyard, and then they will really be incapable of doing things.
The three ladies felt bitter in their hearts, for fear that the old lady would give their husbands concubines, and they rushed to assure them that they would never dare again.
After sending off the three noisy daughters-in-law, Madam Meng continued to talk about the imperial decree, "Boss, although you don't care about political affairs, you know how strong the troops of Northern Li are. This time, Bei Li sent 500,000 troops, just five You have captured three cities in one day, do you have the confidence to stop the Northern Li attack?"
"Son... no!" It takes courage to admit that you are incompetent.
Knowing her son Mo Ruomu, Mrs. Meng sighed and said, "Boss, it's not a shame to admit that you don't have the ability. Looking at Dongwen, people who dare to say that they can do it, and who can really do it, will never be ashamed. more than three people."
Although it is very hidden, it is really comforting. At least Meng Shi felt relieved when he heard this, and the smile on his face can be seen.
"The second, the third, you two should understand now. It's not because your mother wants to hinder your future, but there are some things we have to do according to our ability." Mrs. Meng knew that she would not live long, and then this The family still had to be handed over to their brothers, so they took the opportunity to teach their sons.
The second master Meng and the third master Meng were no longer proud and relaxed before, and they said with a sad expression: "Mother, why did the emperor ask the eldest brother to be the coach?" Anyone with a discerning eye can see that their eldest brother has no such ability.
Madam Meng pondered for a moment and said, "If I guessed correctly, this matter is probably related to King Xiao."
"King Xiao?" The three brothers of the Meng family looked puzzled, and Meng Shi took the initiative to ask: "What does this have to do with King Xiao? Although I married King Xiao on the ninth day, we are not familiar with King Xiao."
Even in order to avoid suspicion, even at the ninth wedding, their three uncles only showed one face, and they didn't even greet King Xiao.
"No matter how unfamiliar we are, our two families are also relatives by marriage." Regarding Lin Chujiu, Mrs. Meng was not only dissatisfied with her three daughters-in-law, but also her three sons, but...
In the future, the ninth day will depend on three uncles to maintain it, so even if Mrs. Meng is dissatisfied, she will not let the three sons find out, lest they feel resentful.
Meng Shi's heart panicked, and he quickly asked: "Mother, did the emperor see that we and Xiao Wang became in-laws, so he wanted to eradicate our family?"
"Ah? Isn't it?" Second Master Meng and Third Master Meng were stunned. "The marriage between Chu Jiu and King Xiao was not agreed upon by us. Ordinarily, why can't this matter involve us?"
There's nothing wrong with this inference, it's just…
These three people think too highly of themselves, just because they are not worthy of the emperor's shot.
"Where do you want to go, you have no military power and no real positions, and the emperor will not touch our family." After the hero, there are only so few left. If the emperor kills again, it will be unkind.
"Since the emperor doesn't want to move us, what does the emperor mean?" Meng Shi couldn't believe it, the emperor took a fancy to his ability.
Madam Meng was also unsure, she just guessed: "Xu is related to the soldiers and horses handed over by King Xiao."
"Uh..." Meng Shi looked sluggish and laughed at himself: "Does the emperor think that those people under King Xiao's hands will obey my orders?"
The emperor looks at him too highly, he is really not familiar with Xiao Wang...
