Meng Tianbo showed a bitter smile, shook Xu Ruoshui's hand back, and changed the subject, "What are you busy with? Dad asked you to take care of the house. You are more straightforward this time. I didn't force you like last time. Is it you?"
The husband sings and the wife follows."
Xu Ruoshui was teased and withdrew his hand shyly, "Poor talk." After saying that, he took out the princess's greeting card and pushed it to Meng Tianbo's eyes, "The princess will come to the palace again in a month, I have to do this.
Go and ask dad about it."
"According to Dad, it's better to put the marriage between the princess and Tianqi aside for now. There's enough chaos in the mansion right now. If we talk about the marriage for a while, I might be negligent." Master Meng made Meng Tianbo the head of the family. This matter came naturally.
Up.
Xu Ruoshui thought for a moment, "Otherwise I'll ask dad again. This post has been sent to me again, and I can't make up my mind."
Meng Tianbo nodded in agreement, it is always right to be careful.
But the two of them didn't know that along with this invitation came the wedding date of Meng Tianqi and the princess. Moreover, the Marquis had made this matter known to the whole city. Mr. Meng had no room to turn around, so he asked people to
The red Geng Geng note sent to the wedding date was brought to Ningxiang Hall.
Xu Ruoshui opened it and saw that the wedding date was scheduled for February 2nd next year. After Meng Tianbo saw it, he didn't even bother with dinner and hurriedly took Xiao Shunzi to leave the house, fearing that there would be someone else.
Something important happened.
Until late at night, Meng Tianbo dragged his exhausted body back to the house. Xu Ruoshui had been waiting for him to come back. Seeing the scorched look on his face, she knew that he was tired after going out.
Xu Ruoshui told Baomei to go to the small kitchen to get some food for Meng Tianbo, while she brought water over and asked, "What happened?"
"Tianqi," Meng Tianbo said after he drank the water in his hand and regained his breath, "it was Tianqi who asked the Marquis to publicize his marriage to the princess, and then took the guards of the Marquis' mansion to sit in shopkeeper Wang's shop for the entire afternoon.
, Shopkeeper Wang and the others, under pressure from Lord Marquis, agreed to sell Tianqi’s goods.”
"Then if you go there, won't it be of no use?"
"Fortunately, I knew early. Now only Shopkeeper Wang and his family are selling. I have temporarily stabilized the others. Tianqi's batch of goods can only be sold at half price at most, otherwise he will never know the lesson this time."
"So low? Tian Qi only had 50,000 taels of silver, so he couldn't pay all the money to the shopkeepers, and shopkeeper Wang couldn't eat so much goods alone," Xu Ruoshui calculated the calculation in his mind.
"It doesn't matter, I still make some profit from the goods I sent to the shopkeepers~~~" Meng Tianbo looked at Xu Ruoshui curiously, "Madam, do you also know how to settle accounts?"
Xu Ruoshui spoke hastily. He had not considered whether Late Qiu would settle accounts, but he had seen some in front of Xu's father before, so he knew a little bit in principle, "How can it be possible? I haven't eaten pork and haven't seen pigs running before.
The host's wife settled the accounts, and I watched from the sidelines.
Some." She thought she could get over it by saying this. Meng Tianbo focused his deep eyes, "Wan Qiu, are you hiding something from me? You have never worked as a servant in other people's houses. Even if you have forgotten your past,
Don't make up a lie to deceive me.
"Go to sleep," Meng Tianbo blew out the lamp and lay down next to Xu Ruoshui. When he got up the next day, he went out to find work like a normal person.
Xu Ruoshui planned to take Mrs. Wang to tidy up the backyard of Chunhui Courtyard today, so he went to her place to search to see if the real accounts that Mrs. Meng made for Meng Tianqi were hidden in her place. Just went to Chunhui Courtyard,
I saw my aunt and Sally entering the house.
"Auntie, aunt."
"Late Qiu, we will take care of Madam's illness. Just go and get busy if you have something to do." Sally looked at her niece who looked haggard.
"With my aunt and aunt here, I feel relieved in the late autumn. I came here to clean up the backyard today so that my mother can have a good environment to rest." When talking about the backyard, the aunt turned her head away. Does that place still exist now?
Accompanying the two of them to the inner room, Mrs. Meng refused with a look on her face, "What are you doing here? Are you here to see my jokes? Even if I die, I won't let you succeed."
Sally treated Mrs. Meng for the sake of Mr. Meng and Mrs. Meng. Seeing her refusal, she wanted to leave. Wan Qiu quickly stopped her and said, "Auntie, wait a moment. Can I say a few words to Wan Qiu?"
"
"Sally, your magnanimity is not as good as that of Wan Qiu. Come on, sit down first." Madam-aunt pulled Sally and sat on the kang to see how Wan Qiu could convince Mrs. Meng to accept medical treatment.
Wan Qiu took out the Geng Tie sent from Lord Hou's Mansion, opened it, and Mrs. Meng looked at it. She closed her eyes and said, "Get out."
"Mother, you might as well take a look at this post first. The wedding date of the second young master and the princess is scheduled for February 2nd next year. If you don't treat her, my daughter-in-law will have to lie on the bed and be fed." Xu Ruoshui
He said calmly, seeing her lying like this, I felt comfortable, but this was too cheap for her.
As expected, Mrs. Meng opened her eyes, and after looking at Geng Tie, a cold smile appeared on her face, "I, Tianqi, have to give the best, hahaha, Wulan Luoxuan'er, my son is better than your son after all, even if he is smarter
, I still can only marry a maid to fill the house." Mrs. Meng was telling her concubine.
The aunt didn't care. She knew her daughter-in-law's identity better than anyone else, "Madam, you have to be able to move." This was to use provocation to get Mrs. Meng to cooperate with the treatment.
Sure enough, Mrs. Meng shouted at the top of her lungs, "Baoju, I want to drink medicine." This trick was very effective. The medicine Baoju brought over was prescribed by Sally. After Mrs. Meng drank the medicine, it was given to her.
After inserting needles into the acupuncture points, Mrs. Meng’s face remained cold, but she no longer rejected it.
Xu Ruoshui left the inner room with peace of mind. Mother Wang had been escorted to the backyard to prevent her from being fierce. Master Meng sent two boys to watch. The backyard was still the same as the day before, but the woodshed looked the same as usual.
Hidden murderous intent.
"Mother Wang, if you tell me all the secrets inside, I will beg you to let me go."
"Young Mistress, I belong to the madam. I only obey the madam's orders. Please forgive me for not being able to follow my orders." Mother Wang still said in a tough tone.
"Now that the master will leave this family to me, I have the right to decide whether my mother will stay or go." Xu Ruoshui was not in a hurry. Anyway, today was to deal with her. "I think my mother has heard something about my wife's situation, right?"
"Bah, who do you think you are," Mrs. Wang spat, "you are just a cheap girl, and you actually dare to boss me around."
Perhaps the matter of Xu Ruoshui bringing Mrs. Wang here fell on the ears of Manager Wang. He hurried over and happened to hear what she said, so he stepped forward and gave her a loud slap in the face.
