"I am very happy that Auntie has come to the Meng residence. May I ask what brings you here? Or perhaps you have come to Loucheng for a visit?"
After asking this question, she turned around and sat down in the main seat.
His expression was indifferent, and he had no intention of paying any attention to the child.
The difference between their current attitude and their previous one was so obvious that not only did Xiaoyue behind them sense something was wrong, but the two women also noticed it.
A clear sense of unease flashed across their faces.
The child seemed to sense Wei Wei's dislike for him and retreated back into his mother's arms.
In the end, only those two eyes remained, timidly looking at Wei Wei.
She was a very sensitive child, and in her past life she was quite obedient in front of me.
But people always change.
What about two people who are not even related by blood?
Wei Wei's eyes darkened.
This handsome child was none other than the child she had adopted in her previous life. She had forgotten his name, but she remembered that she had named him Meng Yanjun.
If I remember correctly, she adopted him in her previous life in the following winter.
Children back then were even thinner than they are now, wearing only thin clothes and shivering in the depths of winter.
The old lady frowned and sighed, "This child has a hard life; both his parents are dead."
“I felt sorry for him, so I thought I’d bring him over so he could keep you company.”
At that time, she and Meng Zhixuan had been married for two years. Outsiders said she was infertile, but no one knew that she had not yet consummated her marriage with him.
When the old lady spoke of it, her face turned red and white, and she looked at Meng Zhixuan with helplessness and fear.
Meng Zhixuan gave her a reassuring look and accepted the gift.
Later, he explained to her inside the house, "He's just a little kid. You don't need to take care of him yourself. He can even keep you entertained."
"When our children are born, they can help us take care of them."
"What a great thing!"
It's pretty good.
She was unhappy, but she still kept the pet by her side.
This child is incredibly smart.
He quickly distanced himself from her after discovering early on that the Meng family, while outwardly kind to her, harbored malice in secret.
They wouldn't even bother to mention it to her.
At that time, her health was too poor, and she knew that she might never be able to have her own child again, so she raised Meng Yanjun as her own son.
In the end, he's just an ungrateful wretch who can't be tamed.
The old lady's younger sister, Madam Ma, noticed that Wei Wei didn't seem to like the child, so she quickly lowered her head and asked reproachfully, "Did Nuo'er offend your aunt?"
Meng Yanjun.
No, she's still called Norl now.
Nuo'er shook her head vigorously, tears glistening in her eyes: "I didn't offend Auntie, Auntie, please don't hate Nuo'er."
Look at that little mouth; it used to make the old lady laugh out loud.
Her favorite saying was: "Mrs. Wei, you are truly blessed to have such a smart child as Yan'er!"
They're the ones who came out of hell to collect debts!
Wei Wei smiled and said, "Why would Auntie say that?"
"Noel is very smart, and he never makes me angry. I like him very much."
The two women breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that she liked it.
They exchanged a glance, neither of them knowing what they were thinking, and remained silent for a long time.
Wei Wei didn't have time to play these games with them, and said, "If Auntie comes to visit, there are still many places worth visiting in Loucheng."
"Just stay here peacefully. I'll have the nanny by your side take you to the guest rooms."
After saying that, he stood up.
They're leaving.
When Madam Ma's daughter-in-law, Madam Jiang, saw her actions, she became anxious and quickly stepped forward to ask, "Young Madam, is there something you need to attend to?"
Seeing her looking like she wanted to say something but didn't, Wei Wei had completely lost her patience.
So he nodded: "Yes, I'm looking at the ledger."
"There are many things we still need to think about carefully."
There really isn't time to chat with you all about everyday things.
Besides, there's nothing to talk about.
Upon hearing that she was looking at the account books, Madam Jiang's eyes lit up: "I used to be in charge of the accounts when I was at home. If you have any difficulties, I may be able to help you."
Wei Wei gave her a half-smile: "No need for that. How could I let my sister-in-law do these things? I naturally have people around me who know how."
Jiang gave an awkward smile.
I dared not say anything more.
Seeing that her daughter-in-law had been rebuffed, Madam Ma's eyes flashed, and she also spoke up, "Young Madam, actually we came here this time with a request."
Now we're finally getting down to business.
Her sudden visit must have a purpose that's not so simple. Since she's willing to talk, it's better than waiting around.
Wei Wei raised an eyebrow and invited them to sit down and talk.
Then they brought out tea and snacks.
After the maids and servants finished their work in an orderly manner, they retreated back to their original positions.
Madam Ma looked at the old women and maids, and then at Wei Wei, who could completely enjoy herself simply by sitting in her seat.
Even though she tried to suppress it, a hint of greed still inadvertently showed in her eyes.
Wei Wei sipped her tea slowly, waiting for Madam Ma to make her unreasonable request.
Seeing that Wei Wei didn't intend to press the matter, she cleared her throat and said, "My sister and I made a promise before we were married."
He then looked closely at Wei Wei's expression and said, word by word, "That means helping each other."
"When one side is in trouble, the other side must help."
Upon hearing this, Wei Wei raised her eyebrows in surprise, finding it both amusing and somewhat disbelieving: "I haven't heard the old lady mention this before."
