After all, he is a senior member of the imperial court, a minister, and he always looks calm and smiling in the backyard on weekdays, but at this time when he reprimands his son, he is also majestic and has a certain attitude of saying one thing.

Although the posture is full, Animian can hear the taste of calming things down from the unfinished meaning in his words.

Qin Mengyuan's meaning is not difficult to understand, he still doesn't know what happened, but he can guess that it has something to do with men and women just by listening to the old lady's inside and outside meaning--Brother Rong has not married a wife yet, even if What happened was only limited to the servants in the family. Looking at the situation in the house, one could guess that it had something to do with the maid named Baishu. What big deal could it be?It's easy to smooth it out, but I don't know why it aroused the temper of the old lady. As long as Brother Rong apologizes now and gives the old lady a step down, maybe this matter will pass.

In any case, he is the eldest son, and the only son in the family who is approaching adulthood. Qin Mengyuan must value him and will try his best to preserve his reputation and face.

Qin Jiarong also seemed to be in awe and fear of her father, but faced with her father's questioning, she didn't have the slightest intention of admitting her mistake.He pursed his lips and said in a stubborn voice: "Father, the son is right—the son does not admit his mistake!"

Qin Mengyuan was suffocated, and the atmosphere in the room became even more tense. Hui Niang almost didn't even dare to lift her head.

The old lady snorted coldly, and Wei hurriedly said: "Master, you should first ask Brother Rong what happened, but Brother Rong said slowly, don't scare your father and your sisters."

This statement is very suitable for the identity of Wei's mistress. To Aniniang, it is not adding fuel to the flames. It just reminds Qin Mengyuan of the seriousness of this matter—whether it is exaggerated or not. As soon as he made a sound, the atmosphere in the room was already relieved.

Hui Niang quietly exhaled, only waiting for Qin Jiarong to speak - her curiosity about this matter also reached its peak at this moment.

Qin Mengyuan took two deep breaths and got ready, but he didn't want Brother Rong, but he tightened his lips and stopped talking.Qin Mengyuan was angry with his son, but more aggrieved by the embarrassment, he slammed the table, "Little bastard, if you don't want to say it, then don't say it, come here, use the family law—" —Look at me killing him..."

"Father!" Fu Niang rushed out from Hui Niang's side and knelt down in front of Qin Mengyuan, "Father, my brother is stubborn and tender-faced, my daughter can tell father."

Although Qin Mengyuan was angry in his heart, but just now he was trying to act wisely, and he also wanted to disturb the situation, and asked his wives, concubines and children to come over to dissuade him and take the opportunity to step down.Unexpectedly, the Wei family just watched with cold eyes, and the daughters and aunts did not dare to move. There was only one wife, who was distressed by her younger brother and rushed out. At least it didn't make the situation more embarrassing.

"How can Fu Niang, a girl who has never left the court, speak about this matter?" The old lady spoke at this time. She glanced at her eldest grandson, with deep disappointment in her eyes, and pointed at her aunt again, "Pei Lan, If your son doesn't want to say it, your daughter can't say it, then it's up to you to say it."

"Yes." As soon as the aunt opened her mouth, her strong nasal voice revealed everything.She had been kneeling with her head down, but when she raised her head to speak, Aninian realized that her face was pale and her forehead was red and swollen.

Although there were still traces of kowtowing desperately on her face—maybe it was because she pleaded for her son in front of the old lady, but when the auntie spoke, her tone was dull, "The young master is getting old, and it's time to get married soon." Yes, the old lady discussed with the wife a few days ago and gave the perilla to the young master."

Before he finished speaking, Qin Mengyuan's eyes fell on Zisu who was standing behind the old lady. It was also at this time that Animian noticed Zisu. She glanced over there hastily, and felt that Zisu's expression was not very good either. Looks good, wait to take a closer look, the auntie continued at this moment: "I don't know why, today the young master suddenly heard about this, so he told the old lady..." She paused slightly, then With a trembling voice, he said, "The young master said that he had already taken a fancy to Bai Shu in the old lady's room. He didn't want Zisu to serve him, but only Bai Shu. Bai Shu was pregnant with his child. He... wants to marry Bai Shu Be a wife."

"What did you say?" Qin Mengyuan glared at his eldest son.

Hui Niang also opened her eyes wide, she took the time to glance at the sisters sitting on the kang under the window, apart from Zhi Niang who looked disapproving, Ling Niang and Yin Niang were also like her, showing a look of shock Allow.

Not to mention the aunts standing behind Wei, but they are deeper in the city, only the third aunt and the fourth aunt looked at each other, then lowered their heads again, covering their thoughts.

"What did you say?" Qin Mengyuan asked again in a loud voice, waved Fu Niang away with one hand, raised his foot, and was about to kick Rong Rong, his eyes swept over Bai Shu, he suddenly paused, and turned to look at the old lady, " Mother, is what Brother Rong said true? If Bai Shu is really pregnant, she will keep kneeling on the ground..."

Wei coughed lightly, and hid the mockery in her eyes by drinking tea, the old lady also sneered, "I don't know if this girl is pregnant or not—don't blame me for being cruel. I'm still young, and I don't know how many children there will be in the future. Secondly," the old lady snorted heavily, "I didn't think about letting Bai Shu kneel all the time, but it's a pity that the two of them looked miserable when they came in. It looks like, if Brother Rong said he would not agree to let him marry Bai Shu as his wife, he would not get up on his knees, and if Bai Shu said he would not let Brother Rong get up, she would also kneel with Brother Rong—I had no choice but to let the two of them kneel here caught."

The old lady's words were full of disappointment, and it was only at this time that Hui Niang understood why the old lady was so angry, and she didn't even want to save face for her grandson, and the whole family watched together: she worked so hard to take care of her grandson. The eldest grandson, for the sake of a maid, even threatened himself with the maid, and obviously put himself, his own grandmother, in the position of a villain who beats mandarin ducks. How can the old man not be sad?

Hui Niang couldn't help recalling silently, why didn't she find out that her elder brother was such an infatuated seed before?In the last life, it seems that such a thing did not happen, right?She remembered that in her last life, she would not enter Beijing until two months later. At that time, Zisu was still the most popular candidate for the housemaid beside Brother Rong. thing?

Qin Mengyuan was also angry when he heard the old lady's words.He had high expectations for his son. Although Qin Jiarong was a concubine, but he didn't have a concubine, the weight of the eldest son was no different from that of other people's concubine.He had made up his mind a long time ago that he would choose a daughter-in-law with a family background and a perfect appearance for his son. In the future, he and his in-laws would work together to promote his son to an important official position.It doesn't matter to him that there is a concubine's eldest grandson first, as long as his official position is still there, he will not worry about not having a good family to marry his daughter.But want to marry a maid as a legal wife?This can't work...

The more he thought about it, the more he realized that Qin Jiarong was bewitched by Bai Shu, and Qin Mengyuan looked at this maid, and the more he disliked him, he didn't even want the child who might exist in Bai Shu's belly that he wanted to keep just now.

"Come on!" He roared out of the house again, "Drag this unruly maid to me first!"

"Father!" Qin Jiarong raised her head abruptly, and looked at Qin Mengyuan incredulously, "Father, Bai Shu's belly is..."

"Shut up!" Qin Mengyuan yelled at his son again with a gloomy face, and was about to urge his servants to come over and drag Baishu out first, when Steward Zhang ran in hastily, "Master—Master, come from the palace!" I'm sorry, the emperor asked you to enter the palace to talk."

The emperor's fate was like a mountain, Qin Mengyuan couldn't care about the mess at home anymore, he just repeatedly ordered Bai Shu to be taken into a room to take care of him, and asked the housekeeper to take Qin Jiarong to the outer courtyard, and then quickly walked out of the room.

Qin Jiarong and Bai Shu were also taken away, and Funiang and Da Yiniang were the only ones still kneeling in the room.The old lady and Wei Shi looked at each other, then sighed and said: "My old lady can't do anything about this, she can only look at what your master wants——Peilan, wife, don't kneel down, you'd better get up first .”

The old lady paused, but in the end she didn't let Zisu come out to help her—although she was wronged, but Zisu's status is embarrassing now, especially in front of her aunt and wife.But at this moment, Zisu was the only maid serving in the room, and even the maids around Wei Shi were left outside by her. Hui Niang's eyes were quick, and she really felt a little sympathetic to Fu Niang, she immediately stepped forward to hold Fu Niang's arm, The second aunt behind Wei Shi also stepped forward to help the eldest aunt.

The aunt knelt on the ground for a long time, but when she got up she staggered and almost fell straight.Fu Niang got up with the strength from Hui Niang's hands, and hurriedly turned around to support her biological mother. After the auntie stood still, she and Hui Niang went back to sit on the long couch beside her.

The old lady looked at her granddaughter, some unbearableness flashed across her face, she raised her lips, but she still didn't say any words of comfort, she just turned her head and said to Wei Shi: "Let's be like this today, Brother Rong can give birth to such a crooked woman. Nian, there is always my fault. These days I want to recite sutras in the small Buddhist hall to make amends. These days, don’t let the children come to my place. Fu Niang and Hui Niang’s meals are served in their own rooms—morning and dusk The rules of the Ding Province cannot be abolished, just come to your yard every morning to say hello."

Wei Shi was startled, raised his eyes and glanced at Fu Niang, and then said: "My daughter-in-law knows—it's just that my daughter-in-law was optimistic about a family and wanted to tell Fu Niang, now..."

"Funiang's marriage, let's talk about it later." The old lady waved her hands wearily, "Brother Rong said something like that, your master doesn't know how disappointed he is, and the marriage of children must always be handled by the head of the family." Nod to decide, now it is of no benefit to Funiang to bother him with his wife's marriage - no matter how good that family is, if it has no fate with our family, it can only be done."

Wei Shi looked at the old lady and his wife mysteriously again, and then said respectfully, "Daughter-in-law knows..."
