It is impossible to violate the principles.
Since Wan knew that Zhong Queyuan had doubts about her existence, she did not intend to forcibly tamper with Zhong Queyuan's memory.
Moreover, the focus of the other party's attention does not seem to be here:
Before knowing Cong Wan's identity, Zhong Queyuan just thought that this beautiful woman was a little annoying, and didn't think a village girl could threaten her. But after learning that she was Yun Ding's only daughter, Zhong Queyuan regarded her as a rival.
The status of "Daughter of the Yun Family" is undoubtedly worthy of Shi Xuanwei. If the two of them look at each other first, then her calculus of "leaving an indelible memory in Shi Xuanwei's heart first" will fail.
Therefore, on the way back to Bianzhou, she guarded against the opportunity for the two to be alone or in close contact.
Meng shi and her followers are not blind, so she doesn't need to say anything, even Meng shi can see her intentions. He really didn't look down on the other party's point, so Meng shi chose to ride in the Yun family's carriage, and was unwilling to stay with this concubine.
Zhong Queyuan could not ask for it, but Shi Xuanwei saw it, and his attention fell to the Yun family's car along with Meng Shi. He found that the young lady of the Yun family would only get off the carriage when she was sleeping, and she would stay in the carriage the rest of the time.
Her behavior is very ladylike, but what he cares about is that in this process, almost everyone other than him, Zhong Queyuan and Meng will ignore her existence.
He asked people to send water and dry food over, and the attendant would only prepare Meng's portion.
He reminded the attendant: "There is also a young lady Yun inside."
The attendant was suddenly startled, and quickly added: "This subordinate immediately prepares an extra piece of dry food."
Afterwards, Shi Xuanwei asked the attendant again, "How could you make such a mistake?"
The attendant said in fear: "I can't remember it for a while, and I hope the third son will forgive me!"
The next day, Shi Xuanwei asked another attendant to deliver dry food, and the other party's reaction was exactly the same as yesterday's attendant.
Shi Xuanwei realized that this might not be a problem with the servants, and he gradually developed a strong interest in this little lady of the Yun family.
After Cong Wan noticed his temptation, he secretly sighed: "Should it be said that he is the hero? This acumen is extraordinary."
She raised her presence a little bit.
In the next few days, after the attendants ignored her again, Shi Xuanwei changed his previous thoughts, thinking that the memory of the two attendants was just too bad.
After successfully arriving in Bianzhou, Shi Xuanwei asked Cong Wan through the curtain of the carriage, "Does Miss Yun need me to send someone to escort you back to Yun's house?"
"The third son's good intentions, my little lady has taken it. It's just that someone from the Yun family has come to pick it up, so I won't bother the third son." said the nurse who has been by Cong Wan's side for so many years.
As soon as the words fell, they saw a carriage slowly parked at the city gate, and there was a coughing sound from the carriage. The coachman said something to the carriage, and a thin and handsome man walked out from there.
"Yun Yi has seen the third son."
The person who came was Yun Yi, the elder brother of "Yun Congwan".
Shi Xuanwei got off his horse and said warmly, "I'm seeing you from Zuo."
Yun Yi smiled slightly, his eyes fell on the carriage where Cong Wan was, and said, "Mother Wan, brother is here to pick you up and go home."
With the help of Nanny Wan Zai, he got off the carriage and instructed the coachman, "Send Aunt Meng back to Zhong's house for me. Don't be slighted."
Meng Shi waved at Cong Wan very reluctantly, and said, "Auntie will come to visit another day."
"Aunt Meng has to take care of herself and don't let Sister Zhong and Yuanyuan worry."
"Auntie save it."
After saying goodbye, Shuangfang separated at the city gate.
The Zhong family was relatively close to Jiedushi's residence. When Zhong Zao was invited by Shi Hong to be the vassal, Shi Hong arranged for him to have a closer house in order to strengthen his relationship with him. Yun Ding, on the other hand, had to lead troops for training, so he lived closer to the school grounds.
The two are one south and one north, separated by several streets.
After Mr. Meng arrived at the Zhong family's mansion, Shi Xuanwei went back first to resume his life. Zhong Zao's concubine Liang and her daughter received the news and came to the central hall to greet her.
Mrs. Liang was originally the dowry maid of Mrs. Meng. Because Mrs. Meng was inconvenient to have the same room with Zhong Qi’s wish, Zhong Zao took Mrs. Liang.
Although Liang's family soon became pregnant, Zhong Zao was greatly disappointed. But Liang's family would please him, and later gave birth to Zhong Guan, which made Zhong Zao treat him differently and brought him to his side.
In these years, Liang's life has been relatively free without the main room on her head, but she has never forgotten: No matter how Zhong Zao doesn't like Meng's, it is also the main room where Zhong Zao Ming's matchmaker is marrying.
Unlike the Zhou family, she has been Zhong Zao's favorite woman all these years and is the actual hostess of the Zhong family. Years of pampering made her unable to let go of her figure to please the Meng family, so she first dressed up carefully before appearing slowly.
Zhou Shi originally wanted to give Meng Shi a showdown and let her know who is Zhong Zao's favorite woman. As a result, she was dressed up beautifully, but was compared by Meng Shi's face, which could not be concealed by her simple dress.
A country woman who has been working in the farm for many years, why is she still so white and beautiful? !
She is so beautiful, and she still needs to apply rouge gouache to cover the spots on her face. !
She exclaimed in astonishment: "You—"
Mrs Meng glanced at her and ignored her, but asked Mrs Liang, "Where's Zhong Zao?"
Mrs Liang was a little dazed. Mrs Meng didn't seem to have called her husband by name before, right
She didn't know that as early as when Zhong Zao cursed Zhong Qiyuan to die in a Taoist temple early in his letter, Meng Shi had seen through him, and he no longer needed to rely on him, and no longer thought he was her god.
When all the "respect" and "love" dissipated, she no longer had to play the role of a good wife and mother. Zhong Zao doesn't respect her, so she doesn't need to respect each other.
Zhou shi interjected: "Officials naturally have official duties, how can they sit idle at home every day!"
Meng shi stared at her sharply: "Did I tell you to speak? There are no rules at all. No wonder the daughters taught are also unruly and unscrupulous bitches."
Zhou Shi was stunned. And Zhong Queyuan was humiliated by her in public, so she cried, and ran back to the house without saying a word.
When Zhou Shi saw his daughter, what else could he not understand? On that day, the daughter left a letter saying that she and her brother would go to greet her mother, but she hid the news and did not dare to tell Zhong Zao.
Unexpectedly, she hadn't reprimanded Zhong Queyuan yet, so Meng shi spoke it out in front of everyone, and took the opportunity to humiliate their mother and daughter severely.
Zhou Shi was ashamed and angry, ashamed of Zhong Queyuan's ignorance, and made her unable to raise her head in front of Meng Shi. She was also annoyed that Mrs. Meng dared to teach herself a lesson. Didn't she know that she was Zhong Zao's favorite? !
She made up her mind to tell Meng Shi well when Zhong Zao came back, but now she shows weakness first: "Sister..."
"What a mere concubine, how can you call me my sister? Do you understand the rules? Is that how Zhong Zao taught you the rules?" Meng shi reprimanded.
Mr. Liang stayed beside him in astonishment and did not dare to speak, feeling dark in his heart.
The Meng family had a "cheap" on the left and a "cheap concubine" on the right, and the scolding made Zhou almost faint. Zhou Shi wanted to jump up and scold Meng Shi, but with so many eyes staring at her, she was afraid that Liang Shi would take the opportunity to speak ill of her in front of Zhong Zao.
However, she couldn't do it if she kept forbearance, so she pretended to be aggrieved by being scolded and went back to her yard.
Mrs. Meng asked Mrs. Liang, "Where is my room?"
Liang Shi hurriedly took her to rest.
Originally, Mr. Zhou wanted to arrange it in a side courtyard, but Zhong Zao knew that Shi Hong was also concerned about this matter, so he asked Mr. Zhou to make room for Mr. Meng.
Of course, he felt that Zhou was wronged, and he bought her a lot of things in order to coax her. This time, she took the opportunity to wear it out to show off, but she didn't expect that she would not be able to get rid of the horse, but instead she was angry and cried.
Meng Shi ignored these women in the backyard. She had traveled a long distance, and no matter how healthy her body was, she couldn't bear it, so she still had to get a good night's sleep.
When she woke up, it was almost dusk. The maid next to Liang's came to invite her, saying that Lang Jun had returned.
Zhong Zuo was in the middle hall, and he was already furious when he heard Zhou shi cry about what happened at home today. As soon as Mr. Meng appeared, he angrily scolded: "Meng-shi, you are going too far!"
After the angry rebuke, he was stunned, and he couldn't believe it: Is this his first wife, Meng Shi? Why is she the same as ten years ago, no change at all
Meng Shi looked at him coldly: "How can I go too far?"
Zhong Zao regained his senses, but just as his anger subsided, seeing Zhou Shi's tearful appearance, his anger rose again. Of course, he didn't mention today's matter, but accused Mrs. Meng of letting her two daughters travel around.
Meng Shi said: "Wan'er has become a monk, but you still have no control over her head?"
"What about Chuyuan? Is she a monk too?!"
Meng's eyes were deep and deep: "What do you think?"
"You—" Zhong Zao was horrified, "She also became a monk? Why didn't you tell me?!"
"Didn't I come here?" Meng Shi was vague.
Zhong Zao's face turned blue and white with anger: "Meng Shi, you are too much, you are simply unworthy of being a mother!"
"Then are you worthy of being a father? Why do you usually think of them? If it wasn't for profit, you might have forgotten that you still have two direct daughters?" Meng Shi retorted.
Zhong Zao was so angry that his eyes were cracked, and he raised his hand to hit Meng Shi. In the end, Mrs. Meng was not the weak woman he imagined. Not only was she not going to be beaten, but instead, she pre-empted and slapped him fiercely: "This was beaten for Yuan'er. You can't curse her to death when you are young, right? There is someone like you in the world. A cruel father?"
Zhong Zao was stunned, and she took the opportunity to slap her for the second time: "This is for Yuanyuan, when she needs you on weekdays, you can't think of her at all, and when you are ready to use her for your career, you plan to sacrifice She, are you worthy of being a father?"
After the third slap, she said with red eyes: "I did this slap for myself. I have been married to you for more than 20 years, and I am dedicated to you, the Meng family for you to study and for you to become a talent. You give birth to children, take care of housework, and support your parents. In spite of the dissuasion of relatives and friends, you use your own dowry to subsidize you and subsidize the family. The result? How did you treat me in the end? lighter."
Zhong Zao was so angry that he wanted to clean her up, but she was not afraid: "If you dare to touch a single hair on me, I will destroy your reputation!"
Zhong Kuan hurriedly stepped forward to hold Zhong Zuo and whispered, "Aye, the mother-in-law is going to visit his wife tomorrow."
Zhong Zao pointed at Meng Shi, the anger in his heart couldn't be quelled, and he couldn't let it out. He rolled his eyes and passed out.
Mrs Zhou screamed and hurriedly accused Mrs Meng of hurting her husband, which was disrespectful and not virtuous.
Mrs Meng snorted coldly, turned around and instructed Mrs Liang, who was dumbfounded, "I'm hungry, let the kitchen prepare some food."
Mr. Liang: "..."
She came back to her senses and secretly rejoiced: Zhou Shi thought a sheep came, but in fact he invited a tiger back, right? It will be better to have her in the future!
The movement of the Zhong family was a bit loud, and the next day it reached the ears of Shi Hong and Jiedushi's wife. Shi Hong was also very surprised: "Is the Meng family such a fierce temperament?"
Mrs. Jiedushi gave him a look and said, "This is called Zhenlie."
Shi Hong: "..."
Shi Xuanwei accompanied them, heard the words, and said: "According to the observation of the children in the past few days, Meng Shi is not such a fierce person, she is gentle and polite, and generous and decent. She brought a lot of her own planting to Bianzhou this time. All the herbs I gave to the boy, said that after these herbs were prepared, they could be applied to the wound to stop the bleeding. The boy also let the wounded soldiers use it, and found that it had a miraculous effect."
Shi Hong said: "It's really effective, then buy more from the Meng family. As for their husband and wife affairs, we won't interfere."
Jiedushi's wife both sympathized with Meng Shi and admired her Zhenlie, and said, "Meng Shi has suffered grievances for more than 20 years, but it's just a few slaps. It's really not worth our concern."
Shi Xuanwei paused for a moment, then turned to talk about the fact that the Yun family still had a young lady.
All the daughters of the Zhong family were monks, so he didn't need to spend any more time on the Zhong family. Originally, he wanted to add a little help to himself by marrying a wife with a good family background, but he didn't expect that Zhong Zao's concubine and extermination of his wife would have such consequences, and he should take it as a warning in the future.
Fortunately, he just discovered that the Yun family seems to be a good choice.
