Chapter 55: Admit Mistake and Beg for Forgiveness
"My Lady, someone from your maternal ancestors' Lin family has arrived."
Meng Mingshu raised her eyebrows and looked at Xiao Yan: "Husband, Tuan'er and I will go meet them, you can go and do your thing."
She knew that the Lin family came to admit their mistakes.
If he admits his mistake, he will naturally tell about what happened at the Lin family.
Meng Mingshu didn't want Xiao Yan to know.
As Xiao Yan said, she needs a backer.
This is a very realistic problem.
Now that His Majesty is still alive, if she wants to become Xiao Yan's wife, she needs support behind the scenes.
She will never forgive the Meng family again, so the only one left is the Lin family.
As soon as Meng Mingshu stepped in, she saw people kneeling in the room.
My aunt was kneeling in the front, looking haggard and dressed simply.
My second aunt, third aunt and several uncles were kneeling behind, even my grandmother was kneeling too.
Meng Mingshu stepped forward and helped her grandmother up: "Grandma, you are the elder, how can you kneel before me?"
Madam Lin shook her head: "You will be a noble in the future. This is etiquette. Moreover, when you were in the Lin family, the Lin family did something wrong and humiliated you."
Meng Mingshu held Madam Lin's hand and said, "Please get up first."
Afterwards, Meng Mingshu helped her uncle up.
When it was someone else's turn, Meng Mingshu didn't make any further moves.
She noticed that Lin Yuefu was shaking violently and was obviously extremely scared.
Finally, the aunt crawled to Meng Mingshu and knelt in front of her:
"My Lady, I know my sins are grave, and I dare not ask for your forgiveness. I only ask that you do not let the Master divorce me."
"I am willing to die as an atonement to make up for my previous mistakes."
There was a flash of determination in my aunt's eyes and her face was full of tears.
Meng Mingshu could see that her aunt was not joking.
She really wanted to die.
After the eldest aunt finished speaking, the other two aunts also said similar things.
Meng Mingshu sighed inwardly.
Her second and third uncles were her biological uncles, unlike Meng Yuan, with whom she had severed ties.
Even though he had offended her at the Lin family that day, they were still uncle and nephew, and were related by blood.
It was impossible for Meng Mingshu to ask them to die.
But the Lin family needs to give Meng Mingshu an explanation for what happened in the Lin family before.
Seeing that Meng Mingshu didn't say anything, the aunt crawled even lower.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please, I beg you. I have committed heinous crimes, but my children, except Yuefu, are all good. They are very honest and well-behaved."
"When I was giving you a hard time, I tried to persuade you, but you didn't listen. It's all your fault."
"They are also your blood relatives. If the sinner is divorced and sent back home, their future will be difficult..."
"My Lady, please show some mercy.
You can execute the guilty woman, or even humiliate her, but I only ask that you do not let the Lin family divorce her."
Meng Mingshu understood her aunt's intention.
The eldest aunt was not like the second and third aunts. She only humiliated her verbally once.
She did this several times and even tried to drive her away.
So my uncle wanted to give her a letter of divorce.
But if she was given a divorce letter, even if she became the prince's wife or concubine, the marriages of several cousins would still be affected.
Mrs. Wu would rather die than get a divorce letter for the sake of her children.
Meng Mingshu had an idea in her mind.
The time has come to make a decision.
Wu will definitely deal with it, the only difference is whether it is light or heavy.
In severe cases, she will be put to death or given a letter of divorce.
But Meng Mingshu still didn't want to go that far.
First, in her previous life, Wu and others did their best to please her, and after spending a long time together, they had some feelings for each other.
Although I was reborn, after experiencing the vicissitudes of life, there is not much affection left.
But Meng Mingshu still had some concerns.
Second, Mrs. Wu was a kind mother.
She and her mother had just returned to the Lin family when the marriages of her two cousins were broken off because of them.
This was like a bolt from the blue for someone like Wu who devoted herself to planning for her children.
So it was not surprising that Wu hated them.
"I promise you, the Lin family will not give you a divorce letter."
Meng Mingshu has already planned to use the Lin family, so naturally these cousins of the Lin family must be used as well.
Wu was the biological mother, so naturally she could not be divorced.
"That's it."
Meng Mingshu finally chose to handle it with care.
After all, she didn't take the verbal attacks from Wu and the others to heart, so naturally she wasn't very angry.
The only people Meng Mingshu really cares about are the Xie brothers and sisters.
Because they really threatened the lives of Meng Mingshu and Tuan'er.
Especially Tuaner.
Meng Mingshu still remembers the helplessness and panic she felt when she was bullied and teased.
When Mrs. Wu heard what Meng Mingshu said, she fell to the ground as if a heavy burden had been lifted from her shoulders.
Then she got up and knelt again, hugging Meng Mingshu's legs:
"Thank you, my lady, and thank you for your generosity."
"I'm sorry for what happened in the past."
As she said this, Wu stood up and was about to rush towards the wooden pillar in the hall.
"mother!"
"mother!"
Meng Mingshu looked at the guards. They were very fast and stopped Wu directly.
Meng Mingshu sighed:
"Aunt, I haven't finished speaking yet."
"For the sake of my cousin and her cousin, let's forget about what happened before."
"I will punish you by making you worship Buddha and practice seclusion in your house for a year."
"So do others."
Mrs. Wu was stunned and opened her lips, but no sound came out.
She stared at Meng Mingshu, tears streaming down her face.
She never thought that Meng Mingshu could forgive her.
After all, she had scolded Meng Mingshu and Tuan'er.
These are His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's women and children.
It was only natural for Meng Mingshu to sentence her to death for what she had done.
But she let her go!
Wu cried with joy, and then she was overwhelmed with shame.
Now, apart from surviving the disaster, all that is left is deep gratitude towards Meng Mingshu.
She knelt on the ground: "My Lady, thank you so much."
"I, a sinner, will always remember your kindness and great grace..."
"In the future, this sinner will certainly be punished for his crimes..."
Meng Mingshu nodded: "Well, let's put everything that happened before in the past."
She did not doubt the sincerity of Wu's words at this moment.
But Wu's loyalty was easy to obtain.
As long as she is in a high position, Wu will never offend her again.
They would even compete to please her.
…
"My Lady, someone from the Han and Meng families is here."
