Chapter 27 Only Recognizes Meng Anxian as Daughter
Meng's mother gently held Meng Anxian's hand: "How many times have I told you not to have such a bad temper in front of outsiders? It's not good for your reputation. So what if the Crown Prince glanced at Meng Yanzhi a few more times? She can't have children, so why would the Crown Prince want her?"
Originally, Meng Anxian was unhappy about this, but after hearing these words, she immediately realized what was going on. She took her mother's arm, smiled gently at her, and then whispered, "Mother, I knew you were the best to me."
Meng's mother affectionately pinched the tip of her nose: "You are my only daughter. If I'm not good to you, who will I be good to!"
Qinghe Courtyard.
Meng Yanzhi was gently wiping her cheeks in front of the mirror when she saw Ming Chu walk in, puffing out her cheeks in anger.
"Didn't I tell you to deliver something to the Second Miss? Why are you back all angry?" Meng Yanzhi found Ming Chu's angry appearance quite adorable, smiled gently, and then casually patted her hair.
Hearing this, Mingchu felt even more aggrieved and said sullenly, "Madam said that the Crown Prince would never want the eldest young lady. Madam also said that the second young lady is her only daughter. So what about you, eldest young lady? What are you?"
"I guess I'm just unlucky!" Meng Yanzhi was no longer saddened by these words.
In her previous life, Meng's mother had said even harsher things, but Meng Yanzhi no longer cared about them.
She smiled and took Mingchu's hand, leading him outside.
"Let's go. If we stay any longer, I'm afraid we'll have to copy things again as punishment." Meng Yanzhi's mind was entirely on Zhang Xuanyun, and she completely ignored these messy people from the Meng family.
During this time, Meng Yanzhi frequently went out, attracting Meng Anxian's attention.
She quickly realized something was wrong, so she asked her maid, Lüqiao, to follow Meng Yanzhi and see what she was doing every day when she went out.
Meng Yanzhi brought sweet chestnut cakes for the children today. As soon as she entered the door, she happily handed the chestnut cakes to Zhang Xuanyun.
"Sir, try it, it's very sweet!"
Meeting Meng Yanzhi's bright, sparkling eyes, Zhang Xuanyun couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
He said, "Thank you, Miss!"
"Just call me Rouge!" Meng Rouge waved her hand dismissively, saying that calling her "Miss" was too formal.
But Zhang Xuanyun blushed slightly and whispered, "Miss, it's not proper to address someone by their full name."
Meng Yanzhi then realized that this guy was always very pedantic. Helpless, she could only awkwardly twitch the corners of her mouth and say, "Fine, then call me whatever you like."
After speaking, Meng Yanzhi returned to her seat and began to listen to the lecture.
Zhang Xuanyun's courses were as dull and boring as he was, so Meng Yanzhi was already drowsy after a while. She was really struggling to keep up with the daily routine of going to class early and returning late. She had only just realized how hard it was to study.
Standing in front, Zhang Xuanyun could clearly see Meng Yanzhi's head bobbing up and down like a chick pecking at rice. Finally, she seemed unable to hold on any longer and slumped onto the table, falling into a deep sleep.
He had never seen a woman like this before, and found her very novel and even quite adorable.
Before long, the class ended, and the children huddled together, laughing and munching on chestnut cakes, while Meng Yanzhi groggily opened her eyes.
The moment she opened her eyes, she saw Zhang Xuanyun standing in front of her and immediately stood up: "I'm not asleep, sir, I'm not asleep!"
"get out of class is over." Zhang Xuanyun looked at Meng Yanzhi with a wry smile, feeling utterly helpless.
Upon hearing this, Meng Yanzhi felt embarrassed. She picked up a handkerchief from the side, wiped her mouth, and gave Zhang Xuanyun a silly smile: "Sir, I didn't mean to."
"Well then, let's copy the Treatise on Salt and Iron three times."
Zhang Xuanyun didn't blame Meng Yanzhi too much; he simply punished her.
this……
Upon hearing this, Meng Yanzhi felt completely overwhelmed. With tears welling in her eyes, she gently tugged at Zhang Xuanyun's sleeve and whispered, "Sir, the Discourses on Salt and Iron is far too long. Could you make it shorter? I'll just copy it twice, please!"
Zhang Xuanyun quickly pulled his arm back, his face flushed: "How dare you! What kind of behavior is this?"
"Sir, please, could you skip copying it once?" Meng Yanzhi stared pitifully into Zhang Xuanyun's eyes, "Please."
She looks so pitiful right now; anyone else would feel sorry for her. It's just a pity that she met Zhang Xuanyun, who is such a blockhead.
Five times.
Zhang Xuanyun left with a cold expression, said those words, turned around and walked outside to eat chestnut cake with the children.
What?
Meng Yanzhi was left standing there dumbfounded, staring in disbelief at Zhang Xuanyun's retreating figure. Feeling utterly defeated, she sat down and looked at Ming Chu beside her with a frustrated expression: "Why didn't you call me?"
Mingchu looked aggrieved, lowered her head, and said softly, "Miss, I'm so sorry, I fell asleep too."
"Haha!" Meng Yanzhi couldn't help but laugh out loud, pinching Ming Chu's cheek: "Mr. Zhang's class is really hypnotic."
To be honest, after Meng Yanzhi was reborn, she couldn't sleep for a long time. But Zhang Xuanyun had this ability to make Meng Yanzhi sleep very soundly.
Lingxi Academy.
Lü Qiao immediately told Meng Anxian about it.
"What did you say? Meng Yanzhi goes out every day to find some random man!"
Meng Anxian stood up and looked at Lü Qiao in disbelief.
This is absolutely absurd!
Meng Anxian took a deep breath and immediately went to find her mother.
"Mother, is Meng Yanzhi trying to ruin our whole family's reputation?"
Meng Anxian recounted the whole story, looking at her mother with a worried expression.
Upon hearing this, Meng's mother frowned and looked at Meng Anxian, asking, "How did you know about this? Where did you find out?"
“It was Lü Qiao who followed and saw it with her own eyes.”
"It's in a dilapidated temple in the west of the city, Mother. If word gets out, we'll be completely disgraced!"
Meng Anxian was really anxious this time.
If her reputation is ruined, she will never find a good family again. Not to mention the Crown Prince, even ordinary families of some standing will not want her!
"Absolutely outrageous!"
Having spent half her life in the inner quarters, Mencius' mother naturally understood the seriousness of this matter!
"Xian'er, don't worry, Mother will definitely handle this matter properly!"
