"Mom, is there anything important that you want to talk to my parents-in-law about?"
Meng Chen came here with Song Yaohui and his wife.
The mistress of the Meng family, Mrs. Meng Wei, raised her chin and said, "Please sit down and drink some Jinyuding to calm your nerves."
Song Yaohui took a look at Meng Wei's face and thought to himself, "Oh no! It looks like something big is going to happen!"
After taking a few sips of the Golden Jade Cup, he asked, "Aunt, if you have any questions, please feel free to ask. I will tell you everything I know."
Mrs. Meng Wei did not keep the secret, "What is your relationship with the third branch of the Cui family?"
Song Yaohui's face tightened. He knew that the Meng family and the Cui family were both prominent families in Huayang County, and the two families had always been at odds with each other.
Mrs. Song glanced at Song Yaohui and saw that he was silent. She spoke, "Aunt, to be honest, Xiao Liu is my eldest niece. She and Wanwan were good friends. They both got married that year. After my niece married into the Cui family, she stopped contacting us. On the day of Wanwan's wedding, my family only sent a dowry. My eldest niece never showed up, so we didn't tell you about our relationship... until the couple suddenly came to visit a few days ago. This is the first time I've seen my eldest niece in five years."
Song Yaohui echoed: "The three of them arrived and left in a hurry after not staying for long."
Mrs. Meng Wei glanced at Meng Gaoyu and asked, "I wonder why the three of them suddenly came to visit your Song family?"
"Nothing, just came to catch up with my wife."
Meng Wei frowned slightly, and the two of them didn't tell the truth. "Do you remember that a few days ago, when I came back from Linghua Temple and went straight to your Song family, I mentioned Master Ci'en's prophecy to you?"
Mrs. Song's eyelids jumped. "Aunt, my sisters-in-law and I prepared generous gifts and came to apologize overnight. Could there be more trouble?"
Song Yaohui also looked flustered. "We have apologized, but did we forget something, or did the junior not tell the truth?"
"Think carefully about whether you have forgotten anything, or have you done something wrong that you are unwilling to admit?"
"Absolutely not. We are a small family and we are honest and don't dare to offend anyone."
Meng Gaoyu was a little anxious, so he got straight to the point. "Xiao Liu hasn't visited us in the past five years. Did she not have anything important to tell you when she suddenly came that day?"
Madam Song was surprised and said, "My niece hasn't come to see me for five years. It's because she married into the Cui family and it's inconvenient for her to leave the house. Not only did she hurt herself giving birth to her first child, she also lost the baby. She took medicine all year round, and it took two years for her to have a little cousin, Yunqian. Her girl is weak and easily caught a cold if she's not carefully cared for... If Madam Su hadn't come to see the women of the Cui family a few days ago, the mother and daughter would have recovered after taking the prescriptions Madam Su prescribed. That day, the three of them happened to be out for a walk, and when they got to the Song family, my eldest niece remembered that she had an aunt."
Song Yaohui echoed, "That day they also met Zihe, Zilu, and Yunqian. They even flew kites together in the back garden. Cui Yuan seemed to have something urgent to do and took the mother and daughter away early. That was also the day I learned from Zilu that the third son of the Su family had a pair of ears like Wanwan's."
Meng Wei saw that the two men did not seem to be lying, and since the Cui family's affairs had not been exposed, she could not tell them the truth.
"Go back and think about this carefully. We, the Meng family, must also look for our own faults. After all, Wanwan is our daughter-in-law. I hope that Master Ci'en is wrong this time."
Rong Yaohui said, "Master Ci'en may not always be able to predict accurately. He may make mistakes sometimes."
Meng Wei smiled and said, "Perhaps Master Ci'en really made a mistake this time. By the way, you just said that the third son of the Su family has ears that look exactly like Wanwan's?"
"They look exactly like each other. If I hadn't seen his face just now, I would have thought he was Wanwan's child."
Meng Wei recalled the way Su Ningwen smiled at her that day while wearing a mask. "Are the children resting in the guest house or at the stables?"
Song Yaohui said, "When we came here, the children happened to be at the horse ranch."
"Let's go and take a look."
At this time, on the horse farm, the brothers Meng Zilu and Meng Zihe were happily riding their ponies with nine other boys.
Meng Wei saw at a glance that Meng Zilu was protecting Su Ningwen and Meng Yunqian, while the other children were protected by Meng Zihe and a group of servants.
"Mom, I see that the third son of the Su family is closer to Zilu. He has the same hearing as Wanwan and is the same age as Yunqian. Why don't you let Zilu adopt him as his godson?"
Meng Chen said with anticipation that when she met Su Ningwen today, she wanted to adopt him as her godson.
"Then wouldn't the third son of the Su family be our godson?" Song Yaohui said with a smile.
Mrs. Meng Wei shook her head. "Let's wait and see. If we rashly go and claim him as our grandson, great-grandson, or grandson-in-law, it will scare the child."
Su Ningwen suddenly turned around and looked. Why were they all looking at him?
Suddenly I wanted to go back to my mother and didn’t want to ride a horse anymore.
"Uncle Zilu, I want to go find my mother."
"Your mother hasn't woken up from her nap yet. You'll be able to see her if you wait a little longer."
Half an incense stick later, Xiao Lingyu and others arrived at the horse farm.
Su Ningwen quickly got off the pony, not daring to look at the enthusiastic gazes of Song Yaohui and others, and threw himself into Xiao Lingyu's arms without looking around.
"Mom, I want to go back.
The kind and compassionate looks of the elders of the Meng family and the two elders of the Song family always made him feel that they would take him away from his mother.
"When the brothers get tired of riding, we can go back, okay?"
"Yeah, okay." Su Ningwen responded but still held Xiao Lingyu tightly.
After a while, he poked his little head out from Xiao Lingyu's arms and secretly glanced at Meng Wei and Meng Chen who were not far away.
