Mrs. Meng was disappointed. The so-called eight-character oriented towards discord is a common rhetoric that the two families could not reach an agreement in the middle of the marriage. It was just to find an excuse that both parties could go down. The Li family delayed the marriage and finally did not agree. Perhaps the reason was not the Li family. This was a exchange of interests. The Li family wanted an excellent daughter to achieve their goal, but for some reason, they suddenly repent and risked offending the Meng family.

What is the specific reason? Mrs. Meng couldn't help but think about what happened recently in the Dingwang Mansion. It would not be so coincidental. The Li family received rumors and thought Fu'er would be favored, or the Dingwang changed his mind and did not plan to help the Li family, so the Li family regretted it?

Mrs. Meng's heart was a mess for a moment, and the smile on her face became perfunctory.

Mrs. Wang is just a middleman who passes the message. There is no need to stay and see Mrs. Meng's face. She said a few more words and said goodbye.

The fire at the city gate affected the fish in the pond. Mrs. Meng attributed all this to Ning Yaer. After pondering for a while, she called Ping's mother, and secretly gave a few instructions. Ping's mother took the order and left.

As the saying goes, blessings come unparalleled, but misfortunes never come in singularly.

On this side, Mrs. Meng was worried about a vixen entering the Ding Palace that threatened her daughter's status. Something happened to the Dong family on the other side. Mrs. Dong came to find Mrs. Meng crying.

Mrs. Meng was in a irritable mood and was reluctant to see Mrs. Dong crying, but she couldn't force her sister out, so she could only listen to her complaints patiently.

Mrs. Dong didn't care about her demeanor and cried in her makeup: "...I originally thought that his nephew was a motivated student, but I thought my child was still young and still had a long life to grow up. Our master wanted to cultivate more nephews and be an arm. Who would have thought that this child had looked good before? This was not careful and was infected with many bad habits... Some time ago, I was pregnant and had no energy to control. Now that such a thing happened, our master blamed me."

"What the hell is it?" Mrs. Meng didn't hear the point after hearing this for a long time, and she was a little impatient.

Mrs. Dong seemed to be hard to speak out. She stammered: "What else can be done? It's just the things that are the dandy boys in Yancheng."

"If there are too many bad habits for the playboys in Yancheng, the most are four: eating, drinking, gamble, do you take all of them or all four?" Mrs. Meng asked very directly.

"Sister..." Mrs. Dong glanced at Mrs. Meng, as if complaining that Mrs. Meng was too direct and ungrateful.

Mrs. Meng was holding her breath and immediately sneered: "I think I'm talking bad? I'm afraid that others will say it after doing it. I want me to say it to my sister. What does this matter have to do with you? It's not that you gave birth to you and you didn't raise it. You just ignored it when you asked you to help him find a wife. After seeing a few families, you don't care. Why are you anxious now? Your nephew is not a son, and the Dong family is also a big clan. There are many outstanding children in the clan. You just need to take another one if you don't have the opportunity. As for that?"

"Sister, this is the master's nephew after all. He called me Auntie, and our master was his son. How could I remain indifferent?" Mrs. Dong shed two more tears and wiped her tears with a veil and said, "This child is very obedient on weekdays. I don't know what's wrong recently. Don't you have been trapped by someone?"

"What the hell is it? Let me judge the cause and effect first? If you don't explain it clearly, just cry here for enough. I'm going to go in and take a break. I'll listen to you after you finish crying." Mrs. Meng directly expressed her impatientness.

"I said, I said..." Mrs. Dong must have felt that there would be no good atmosphere if she continued to brew, so she simply said it out this time.

As Mrs. Meng expected, if you can't escape the food, drink, whore and gambling, this scholar is naturally very elegant and asks the most. The nephew of the Dong family met a good girl who was untainted from the mud in Huajie Liuxiang. She spent a lot of silver on her. After spending the money, she didn't dare to ask her family for it, so she could only borrow money. The money was profitable, which was not so easy to borrow. What's more, a scholar who borrowed someone else's family also raised a vixen outside, and there was no money to pay it back. Over the past period, the profits were both costly and profitable.

Most of the money that was placed on the seal had a background. Mr. Dong was afraid that the matter would affect the official voice and asked Mrs. Dong to fill in the money. It was 20,000 taels. Mrs. Dong didn't want to ask Mrs. Meng for help.

Mrs. Meng understood what Mrs. Dong meant, probably because she wanted her to help find someone to waive the account, at least to waive the profit, and just pay back the capital. She didn't want to care about this matter, let alone the Meng family is not as good as before, even when Meng was still a general before, she didn't want to get involved in such a thing.

The nephew of the Dong family is not the nephew of the Meng family. He has turned a few turns and the number is not very large. It is not very difficult to find someone to suppress the one with the money. However, it is owed a favor to someone and need to treat guests and give gifts. If you owe the favors, you have to pay them back. At that time, you may pay them back more than 20,000 taels.

When Meng Ye was an official, there was a rule that if you could spend money to settle things, don’t spend favors. Now 20,000 taels of silver can be solved. Why bother with your head down and beg for help? The Dong family has no such money.

After making up his mind, Mrs. Meng sighed: "Sister, since your master values ​​family affection, just treat it as losing money and avoiding disasters. Forget it."

"Sister, but our family really can't afford that much money at once." Mrs. Dong began to cry poorly, "You don't know how many dowry the master got for her last time. Our family has moved in again, and when we moved in, there are still furniture..."

"Okay, okay, if you don't have money, you can ask your master for it. It's hard to cook a cook without rice. You are a woman in the inner house and you don't have money on your books. How did you become a woman?" Mrs. Meng said, glanced at Mrs. Dong, "You just put the accounts in front of your master and say this to him. What should he do? You won't sell your house and land to sleep on the street."

Mrs. Dong's eyes flashed and she started to hesitate again.

Mrs. Meng knew that there was something strange about this, so she ignored her and said, "It's not that I'm talking about sister, but women can't just listen to men. Your sister is an example. Listen to your brother-in-law in everything. What's the result? You know that if you don't talk about these troubles in our family, you don't have the confidence in your son before. Now your son has been born. Our mother's family has a little face. Although your brother-in-law has been demoted, he is still in the city. If the Dong family dares to be too wronged, his parents can speak, what are you afraid of? Don't take care of everything yourself and have a lot of trouble. In the end, you will be wronged by yourself. Tougher."

"But sister..." Mrs. Dong was still hesitating.

Mrs. Meng interrupted again, "Sister, there is another thing, is a woman? The most important thing is to take good care of the child. My nephew is only a few months old, so you leave him alone and run away. How can those nurses be more careful than taking care of themselves? If something goes wrong, you can't even cry. Don't go out easily in the future. Just ask the mother to notify you if you have any questions. It's not that I don't help you, but that your brother-in-law is now slight and can't speak. My brother-in-law's official position is higher than your brother-in-law, and he can't do anything. What can your brother-in-law do?"

"Sister..." Mrs. Dong was interrupted several times, but finally couldn't hold it in, and she started crying with a wow.

"Sister, stop crying, what's wrong?" Mrs. Meng advised her for a few words first, and Mrs. Dong was still crying. She couldn't help but sternly, "Stop crying."

Suddenly, Mrs. Dong's tears were scared back.

Mrs. Meng said with a tense face: "Look at you, you are almost thirty years old, why are you crying like a child? You have to take care of my face without caring about your own face. There are a lot of maids and mothers outside, are you afraid that others will not know? Those who don't know think that my sister bullies you, the sister."

"Sister, I'm sorry." Mrs. Dong choked and said, "You must save me, now you can only save me."

Mrs. Meng looked at Mrs. Dong coldly and refused to speak.

Mrs. Dong shrank her head and said, "I, I embezzled the money from my family... I lost money when doing business, so I dare not tell our master, so you must help me and let our master know. Even if I don't rest, I will be locked up in the family temple."

"What business do you do can you pay tens of thousands of taels?" Mrs. Meng was shocked.

Mrs. Dong stammered, "It's...it's the general business."

"What the hell is it?" Mrs. Meng's voice became stern again.

Mrs. Dong gritted her teeth and said, "It's the money."

"What?" Mrs. Meng couldn't believe it, "You actually dare to put the seal money? How long have you been in Yancheng? Why did you know how to put the seal money?"

Mrs. Dong didn't dare to look at Mrs. Meng's face and said quietly, "It was a lady next door who helped her. She paid it on time at the beginning, and the profit was also very high, but later..."

Mrs. Meng sneered, "After borrowing a large amount of money, the person disappeared, right?"

This is a common trick. Yancheng performs this trick every day, as small as dozens of dollars, as large as tens of thousands of taels or hundreds of thousands of taels, which is a person's lack of heart.

Mrs. Dong muttered, "How do I know which wife is fake? Many wives and wives know her and have such a big house. After the incident, I realized that she was not the wife of that family at all, but a second wife. Which other family head was an official outside, and was arrested a few months ago. It was just outside the city. The news did not reach Yancheng. Therefore, the concubine cheated on Yancheng under the name of which wife. I have seen her at several banquets and introduced me to know several noble ladies. How did I know that she was just a concubine?"
