There was water in Mrs. Fu's eyes, as if she felt extremely uncomfortable, and she squeezed Meng Yue's hand tighter.

"Oh, it's not easy to be a stepmother. If you were my biological daughter, no matter how big of a mistake I made, you wouldn't think the worst. In the conscience of heaven and earth, although you are a stepdaughter, my mother treats you as her own daughter.

I have loved you for twenty-two years. They say that time reveals a person’s heart. It’s been so long, haven’t you understood my mother’s heart?”

Meng Yue raised her eyes and looked at Mrs. Fu. The memories of the past twenty years were vivid in her mind. She was cared for carefully and cared for a lot. There were good things to choose from her. How many times had Meng Hua cried because she was angry with her mother for being partial...

But yesterday, my grandfather told Cimo that we should learn to read people's hearts and not easily trust people who are not related by blood...

Meng Yue asked uncertainly, "Is it really just a coincidence that I met that person?"

Fu said, "Of course it's just a coincidence. Think about it, if something happens to you, my parents-in-law will punish me, my master will have a quarrel with me, Cimo will hate me to death, and the Meng family's daughter will be affected... This doesn't matter to me.

For me, it is completely harmful and no good. Am I suffering from Fengfeng Mania? Why do I do this? Alas, Cimo has a lot of thoughts, and he has not wanted to see me as a stepmother since he was a child..."

Yesterday, it was for this reason that her husband chose to believe her.

Meng Yue thought about it too. Everyone has their reasons for doing things, and the eldest lady had no reason to do so. Cimo thought of her that way because he was biased against her. But his grandfather was fair, and he also thought she did it deliberately.

.

She murmured, "Not only Ci Mo, but also my grandfather..."

She remembered Cimo and her grandfather telling her not to say something nonsense, so she quickly stopped talking and lowered her head.

Fu's heart sank. What clues did the old man see? Before, she thought that if the old man was unhappy, he would be like Cheng Guogong, thinking that she should not take Meng Yue out to see men, but she would not think that she did it on purpose.

If the old man thinks that she deliberately framed his stepdaughter, her life will not be easy in the future. If he thinks that she secretly helped the Marquis of Zhennan, she will be completely ruined.

Mrs. Fu's hand trembled when she pinched Meng Yue, and she choked with sobs, "Does the old man think so too? What a huge injustice..."

Meng Yue said hurriedly, "Grandpa is indeed very angry. He said that I am a person who has been married and divorced. It is not easy to find a good family. If I spread my reputation as a man, my reputation will be completely ruined. He also said that I will be punished when I go back.

You, mother, you are going to be wronged because of me."

Grandfather also said that the eldest lady had impure thoughts and was suspected of harming her stepsons and stepdaughters. He also warned her that even if she did not fully believe in her grandfather and Cimo, she should not completely believe in the eldest lady... she should see with her eyes and experience with her heart.

Then, let her take another look.

Although Meng Yue's words were flashy, Mrs. Fu still heard it. The old man and Meng Cimo suspected that her stepmother was unkind. As long as they didn't suspect her of helping the Zhennan Hou Mansion, that would be fine.

Mrs. Fu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The old couple were old, and the old lady was in very poor health. As long as they died, the Chengguo government would have the final say. As for Meng Cicimo, there would be plenty of ways to deal with him. Ruoying

If the king ascends the throne, just let him die...

She stretched out her hand to straighten Meng Yue's smooth hair and said, "It doesn't matter if I'm wronged, as long as you're fine. You are an adult too. Who is good and who is bad? Don't listen to what others say, but see it with your own eyes."

, think carefully. Over time, you will understand when you see people’s hearts.”

Meng Yue nodded. These words were roughly the same as those of her grandfather and younger brother.

Mrs. Fu comforted Meng Yue for a few more words before returning to her tent.

She sat on the bed, feeling like her energy had been drained out of her just now, and she fell weakly on the bed. She knew that her life in the Duke's Mansion would not be easy for a long time.

That old man who was not cultivating deceived her into losing her virginity when she was young, then turned around and married another woman as his stepmother. Later, he coerced her into pleasing Duke Cheng and marrying him. It was not enough for him to do so many things.

This incident actually got her involved...

I don't know how much time passed before Yunxiu's voice came from outside, "Madam, Eunuch Liu is here."

Eunuch Liu is the eunuch of Concubine Zhao.

After hearing this, Mrs. Fu quickly sat up, straightened her hair in the mirror, and then said, "Please come in, Eunuch Liu."

Eunuch Liu came in and said with a smile, "Mrs. Meng, please come into the palace to have a talk."

In the twenty-two years since Mrs. Fu was married to Duke Cheng Guo, this cousin had never called her into the palace alone. This time she wanted to see her without avoiding suspicion. I don't know if she was angry that she didn't get things done, or something else.

Mrs. Fu had no choice but to follow Eunuch Liu to the palace.

In the evening, the sun has not completely set, and warm colors flow between the sky and the earth.

After dinner, Jiang Yixi took a walk in the yard to eat. She had been frowning for the past two days. She wondered how the matter went, and whether her analysis was wrong.

Huahua followed her honestly, not daring to get too close.

Aunt Wu and the girls all thought that their master was feeling unwell due to early pregnancy, so they tried their best to make food for her.

The mother-in-law from the outer courtyard came to report that the prince had asked Meng Qingshan to deliver wild animals to the eldest grandmother.

Jiang Yixi was overjoyed, "Let him come in."

Meng Qingshan walked in carrying two baskets. One basket contained several pheasants, and the other contained wild pears, wild hawthorns and other wild fruits.

Meng Qingshan smiled and said, "The prince said that pheasants can replenish the health of the old lady and grandma. The wild fruits are sour and can whet the appetite, so grandma should not eat too much..." The voice lowered a little, "The prince also asked

The young one told the eldest grandma that everything went well, Miss Zhao Wu became the crown prince Liang Yuan, and the matter was settled."

"The girl from the Zhao family became a good wife" means that she is Meng Yue's substitute. "The thing is done" means that the emperor met Prince Ping or Concubine Qu.

After two days of worry, Jiang Yixi finally felt relieved and let out a long breath.

She rewarded Meng Qingshan with five taels of silver and asked him to go home and rest.

On the twelfth day of the ninth lunar month, hunters entered the gates of the capital in great numbers.

Duke Meng and others returned to Duke Cheng's Mansion with some wild animals at the beginning of Xushi. Only Meng Cimo and Meng Ciyue, who were responsible for protecting the emperor, did not return together.

Everyone in the Meng family knew that they were coming back today and were waiting at Fu'an Hall after dinner.

Old Duke, Cheng Guogong, Fu, and Meng Ciyu came to Fu'an Hall, and everyone else returned to their own courtyard.

All four of them looked bad. Especially Fu, who looked haggard and was being supported by Meng Ciyu all the way.

The old lady asked in surprise, "What's going on?"

Meng Hua was also frightened. He stood up and supported Fu and asked, "Mother is sick?"

The old man waved his hand and said, "The eldest son and his wife will stay, and everyone else can go back."

The old lady knew that something big had happened, and said to Huang Xin, who had been living here these days, "Your mother is back, you go back to accompany her."

Meng Ciyu walked at the end, and when she saw everyone else going out, she knelt down and kowtowed to the old man.

"Grandpa, my mother is unintentional. She is a good daughter-in-law, a good wife, a good mother..." If you like Chunman Jinghua, please collect it: (https://www.myxls.net) Chunman Jinghua Novel Search Network has the fastest update speed on the entire Internet
