Chapter 29: Meng Mingshu has never been wronged
After hearing this, Madam Lin covered her chest with her hands in anger, and her outstretched fingers were trembling:
"Is this what you, as an elder, should say?"
Meng Mingshu supported her grandmother and helped her calm down.
My grandmother is a good person, with the same good temper as my mother.
Even though she is an elder, she has never acted like a mother-in-law, and has never bullied her daughter-in-law.
So my aunt now dares to speak to my grandmother like this.
For the sake of the old lady, Meng Mingshu didn't want to argue with her aunt.
She took two steps forward:
"Aunt, my mother and I won't be staying here for too long. We'll move out of the Lin family soon, and we don't have any other plans."
"If my aunt is worried, we will go out less often, and if we meet our cousins, we will consciously avoid them."
Even though she knew her aunt's true identity in this life, for Meng Mingshu, who had just been reborn, all the good things were still vivid in her mind.
"Moving out soon?"
Aunt Liu had a sarcastic look on her face, as if she had heard a joke:
"Don't fool yourself anymore, and don't think I'm easy to fool."
"Your eldest sister and the Han family have a mortal feud. If it weren't for the Lin family, you guys would probably be dead by now."
In this situation, how could these people leave the Lin family?
I'm afraid that as soon as he leaves the Lin family's house, he will be assassinated by the Han family.
"Thanks to you, your uncle is now extremely worried and can't even close his eyes, just to protect you."
"It's a pity that the good marriages my two daughters had just arranged are now all gone.
And my Xian'er, if she hadn't been married long ago and had given birth to two sons, I'm afraid she would have been implicated by you as well."
When Liu said this, she gritted her teeth and her voice was choked with sobs.
Her disgust towards Meng Mingshu and the others was about to overflow.
It is extremely rare for both mother and daughter to be divorced, from ancient times to the present.
"Now everyone in Chongzhou Prefecture is talking about you and laughing at you. No matter how you live your life, it's over. But my daughter is not."
"You will never be able to turn things around, but you insist on dragging my daughter down with you. How can there be such shameless people like you in this world?"
What Liu wanted to scold more was her husband.
Any normal person would avoid the current situation of Meng Mingshu and her daughter.
But Master Lin just loves his sister.
They are blood relatives and are a family.
They, mother and daughter, are outsiders.
Meng Mingshu was silent and looked at her grandmother.
"My cousins' marriage?"
Madam Lin nodded.
For the first time in her life, Meng Mingshu felt a little regretful.
Maybe she should endure it for a few more days.
But at that time she really didn't want her elder sister to be bullied by Han Xuwen.
Madam Lin held Meng Mingshu's hand and said, "Ah Shu, this is not your fault."
Meng Mingyu is a member of the Meng family, and Lin is a daughter of their Lin family.
But she had been married for many years, and was divorced because of her daughter.
Logically speaking, it has little to do with the Lin family.
“Good fortune lies where misfortune lurks, and misfortune lies where good fortune lies.”
"They come to cancel the engagement at the slightest sign of trouble. If Rou'er and the others marry into such a family, they will suffer.
Now that they can recognize each other before getting married, it is actually a good thing for them."
Mrs. Lin has lived to this age and no longer looks at things solely from the perspective of immediate gains and losses.
Aunt Liu sneered:
"You say it lightly, but that's how the world works. Women whose engagements are broken off will be the subject of gossip and speculation.
If you want to find your ideal husband in the future, or marry into a wealthy family, it will be more difficult than for others."
"Marriage is extremely important in a woman's life; the rest of her life's honor and disgrace almost all hinges on these two crucial years.
If you miss these few years, it will be difficult in the future."
Liu looked at Meng Mingshu and her daughter with hatred:
"If my Rou'er and the others can't get married, or can't marry into a good family, I will never let you go."
Even if she died, she would not make their life easier.
Meng Mingyu and Lin lowered their heads in shame.
Meng Mingshu felt a little guilty, but her grandmother's words just now reminded her of her past life.
In her previous life, her two cousins married into poor families.
Cousin Yuerou died of illness in the second year after her marriage. I heard that she was killed by her husband's concubine.
Cousin Yuefu was also troubled by her mother-in-law at her husband's house, and her life was very difficult.
The reason why Meng Mingshu knew all this was because she spent the most time with her aunt in her previous life.
Liu told her everything and said that she regretted letting her cousin Yuerou marry into the Wang family.
If it was two years later, when she became the queen, she would not have died in the Wang family.
She said that since she became the queen, cousin Yuefu's mother-in-law no longer dared to treat her cousin badly.
It is said that my cousin's husband's concubines have become well-behaved and he no longer dares to bring his mistress back home.
Whenever my aunt talked about this, she would be very grateful to her.
Meng Mingshu sighed inwardly and wanted to say something, but she knew that no matter how much she said now, it would be of no use.
My aunt wouldn't believe it at all, so she could only wait for Xiao Yan to come.
Only then will my aunt change her attitude.
"If my two cousins really can't get married because of us, I will be responsible in the future."
Liu now hates Meng Mingshu and the others the most, and she wants to assume the worst malice towards them.
"Responsible, how can you be responsible? You seduced my son, let him stay in the Lin family, and then bullied them for the rest of their lives?"
Meng Mingshu could only explain again:
"I just said that my sisters and I will never have anything to do with our cousin. How can my aunt believe it?
Or maybe we can stay at the Lin family's house for a few days and stay indoors?"
Liu sneered, watching as Madam Lin's expression became increasingly ugly.
She had no choice but to swallow Liu's harsh words.
But there was a lump in my heart, neither going up nor down.
She knew very well that even if Meng Mingshu and the others had no intention of getting closer to each other.
But the old lady has it, and Master Lin has it.
Liu sneered and said:
"It's best you don't. We once had a maid in our house who had evil intentions. She only thought about getting close to the young masters in the mansion all day long."
"Everyone knows that she's frivolous, but she pretends to be stubborn.
He repeatedly assured me that he had absolutely no intention of currying favor with the rich and powerful."
"But who knew that she would soon climb into You'er's bed. Do you think such a maid is a lowly creature?"
Liu looked at Meng Mingshu:
"Do you want to know what happened to this girl in the end?"
Liu asked herself, and when no one answered her, she gave the answer herself.
"Of course, she was eventually kicked out of the mansion. She thought she could fly to the top of the social ladder, but it didn't take long for You'er to get tired of her."
"I sold her out. I heard she's in a brothel now, being ridden by thousands and trampled by tens of thousands. What's the point of that?"
My aunt said something unpleasant, and her slender hands gently picked up the handkerchief:
"Old lady, don't overthink it. Your granddaughters are the daughters of the prefect and are ladies from wealthy families.
Of course, I am different from this lowly maidservant."
Liu knew clearly that Meng Mingshu and others had severed ties with the Meng family.
However, he emphasized his tone when talking about the daughter of the prefect and the ladies from wealthy families, and his sarcasm was very obvious.
Old Madam Lin covered her chest with her hands, her expression becoming increasingly ugly.
She kept calling them maids, but even a fool could tell that she was indirectly criticizing Meng Mingshu and the others.
Meng Mingshu hadn't suffered such grievances for many years.
When she was with Xiao Yan, no matter how excessive her actions were, Xiao Yan never said a harsh word to her.
Whenever Meng Mingshu made a mistake, she would blame others for it, and in the end Xiao Yan would come to coax her.
After she abandoned her husband and daughter and returned to the Meng family, her mother and elder sister also treated her very well.
I wish I could give her the best things.
The second sister was very nice to her at the beginning, but she changed her attitude towards her because she kept making mistakes.
But when she was about to be punished by Meng's father, her second sister would stand in front of her to protect her.
It can be said that Meng Mingshu has almost never suffered any grievances in her two lives.
This is the first time I have heard such harsh words.
Meng Mingshu was about to fight back when her uncle suddenly came into the yard, apparently having heard what Liu had just said.
His face was extremely gloomy and he slapped Liu directly in the face.
The crisp sound of slapping rang out in the yard.
Meng Mingshu widened her eyes in shock. Old Madam Lin, who had been covering her chest, stood up and hurried to stop her eldest son.
Liu fell to the ground, covering her face with her hands, her voice trembling:
"You and I have been married for many years, and you actually attacked me just for this family of whores?"
