Meng Jia's eyes showed deep hatred: "Don't worry, as long as my son finds out the truth, he will definitely make him pay the price."
It was that person who indirectly killed his father.
If that person hadn't caused the Park City fire, his father wouldn't have been so infamous, let alone die in such a miserable way.
Mrs. Meng nodded with satisfaction and reminded him: "Although your father's death seems to have many strange things, it is not likely to be the work of the Priest Palace.
But for many things, the more unlikely they are, the more true they are.
If it wasn't the Priest's Palace, maybe it was the person who gave your father the evidence.
Your father is often too stubborn. He is obsessed with the death of the late emperor, which leads to many misjudgments and wrong steps. I can't always persuade him."
Mrs. Meng choked up and wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes: "You did a good job when you left it to His Majesty to handle it before. When it comes to investigating this, Your Majesty is much more powerful than you and is more suitable to take action. So far, I have treated you very well.
rest assured."
Meng Jia said softly: "Mom, I will take good care of you and will not leave you helpless in your later years."
Mrs. Meng tentatively said: "Your wife has been here for a while. I think she is pretty good. She is not as bad as the rumors outside..."
Meng Jia calmed down: "As long as she doesn't make mistakes and lives her life with peace of mind, I won't treat her badly. As for the other things, let's talk about it for now."
Mrs. Meng didn't have much to say about this marriage.
At first, I was as obsessed as a ghost, and I was determined to make it happen. I repeatedly emphasized to her that Lin Mi was not that bad.
What's more, if it's really bad, it's not impossible to change it in the future. If Meng Jia really doesn't like it, he can still take a concubine.
Now that we are in this embarrassing situation, Mrs. Meng can only think that it is her own fault.
She sighed again: "I am getting old. I just want to see you safe and happy, and I want to have a fat grandson. You don't like her, but after all, you married her and you shouldn't treat her badly."
Meng Jia was distraught: "I have my own ideas, so don't worry about it. We'll talk about it after we've observed our filial piety."
Seeing his insistence, Mrs. Meng thought that this was indeed during the period of mourning, and husband and wife could not have sex, so why bother to make Meng Jia unhappy for such a thing? Maybe after observing mourning, the two of them would suddenly get better, so she stopped
mentioned.
Suddenly hearing a noise outside, Meng Jia hurriedly asked people to see it.
But it was Lin Mi who went to check the journals for the past two days and got into trouble with the tribesman who was in charge of the accounts.
Those people bullied her because she was a new daughter-in-law, and the Lin family was losing power, so they often said bad words: "What do you know about a new daughter-in-law? Let your man talk to me, I won't talk to you, a woman."
How could Lin Mi be so easy to mess with? He sneered and said, "Can't the new daughter-in-law understand? This is my home, my mother-in-law has the final say, my husband has the final say, and I have the final say!"
Even if I don’t understand, it’s still my business. Who do you think you are? To put it nicely, you’re here to help. To put it badly, you’re here to take advantage of me.
If you are really innocent and sincerely come to help, why don't you dare to let me check the accounts? You can't even ask?"
This was like poking a hornet's nest. Those people were afraid of Meng Jia's mischief, but not her. They made a fuss, threw down the account books, threw up their sleeves and left.
Another group of female relatives came, accusing or persuading Lin Mi to quickly go and apologize.
Lin Mi sneered and just ignored: "If it's my fault, I will definitely apologize. If it's not my fault, I will never apologize. If you don't help, I won't help. After raising so many servants, is it possible that you are just a freeloader?"
