My sister must marry someone else? Why are you crying when I marry the King of War?

Even as a concubine, Meng Zifang's status was considered high enough for Marquis Wuwei.

No matter what, it cannot be said that Lin Yuwei did anything wrong.

Meng Mingchi was annoyed: "Don't talk about this anymore. Why are you so hasty to open your mouth when you didn't hear clearly? Don't you think it's embarrassing enough? Lin Yuwei, I even suspect that you deliberately want to see my sister and me embarrassed!"

"Brother Meng, don't you know how I treat you?" Lin Yuwei felt a little disappointed and aggrieved. "If I didn't like you, why would I, the legitimate daughter of a fourth-rank official in the Ministry of Revenue, marry you? Is there anything in your Meng family that's worth my attention?"

"You!" These words sounded extremely harsh, adding fuel to the fire, and Meng Mingchi's anger, which had been caused by jealousy and suspicion for a long time, was pushed up. He looked at Lin Yuwei and sneered, "Yes, what virtue do we have in the Meng family to make the eldest daughter of the Lin family care about us? I am just a seventh-rank official. There are hundreds of officials like me in the Five Military Commanders' Office. I may not get the opportunity to be promoted in this life. Even if I have the opportunity, I can't reach a high position. This is how my life will be. So do you regret it now?"

Lin Yuwei was stunned: "What?"

Meng Mingchi gritted his teeth and sneered: "Marquis Wuwei is in a high position, and he has endless wealth and glory thanks to his ancestors' merits. I heard that your Lin family originally planned to let you marry into the Marquis Wuwei's mansion, right? Do you regret not marrying there now? If you had married there, everything your sister has today would be yours!"

Thinking of the way she stared at Lin Yulan's expensive and luxurious clothes and jewelry, the sour words she blurted out, and the way she sneaked glances at Shao Xun, Meng Mingchi felt sour and angry.

How can he compare with the Marquis of Wuwei?

If they met him on the street, he would have to bow respectfully and greet him, and people wouldn't even need to glance at him.

To put it bluntly, any important servant in the Marquis of Wuwei's mansion could shout at him.

Meng Mingchi slammed his fist on the table and snorted through gritted teeth.

Lin Yuwei was stunned and shouted angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about! I have no regrets, no! What's so great about the Wuwei Marquis' Mansion? I don't care about it at all! I said that you are the only one in my heart and I am willing to marry you, why don't you believe me?"

"What's the reason?"

"what?"

"You really just like me because--?"

"Yes, what else could it be?" Lin Yuwei started to cry. "You also know that my parents originally wanted me to marry into the Wuwei Marquis's Mansion, but I, I fell in love with you at first sight, and I just want to be with you. I gave up the wealth and glory that was within my reach for you, and today when I returned home, I was ridiculed and mocked by my sister. I didn't expect you to say this to me."

Meng Mingchi panicked when he saw this. He hurriedly hugged her and patted her shoulders gently. "...I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I misunderstood you. It's my fault. Wei'er, please stop crying. I will never doubt you again and I will never say such things again."

Lin Yuwei cried even more sadly, sobbing and accusing. Meng Mingchi felt regretful and heartbroken, and was so anxious that he almost swore.

Lin Yuwei was secretly proud of herself, and after a while she walked down the stairs. She took the opportunity to say, "You must remember what I said today, and my feelings for you. You must treat me well in this life. Even if you become rich in the future, you must not betray me or make me sad. You must give me everything you have."

These words made Meng Mingchi vaguely uncomfortable, as if he was an ungrateful person in her heart, but he was feeling guilty now, so he didn't think much about it and nodded, "Okay, I promise you, I promise you everything."

Lin Yuwei became even more proud, raised her chin, and said to him coquettishly: "Then I want you to swear."

"what?"

"Swear! I've given up so much for you, and I just want you to swear. How difficult is that? If you don't even want to do this, how can you say you're sincere!"

Meng Mingchi's face darkened slightly, and he suppressed his impatience and smiled: "Wei'er, it's not that serious... Don't you believe me?"

Lin Yuwei smiled and said coquettishly: "I believe you, but I just want to hear you swear. I will be happy to hear it. Can't you just treat it as a way to make me happy?"

Meng Mingchi: “…”

I can’t say what’s wrong, I just feel particularly depressed and frustrated.

Lin Yuwei was still insisting: "Hurry up, Brother Meng, I want to listen, I just want to listen!"

Meng Mingchi had no choice but to give in to her wishes when the sound of "bang bang bang" knocking on the door startled both of them.

Mother Meng's angry voice was very penetrating: "Open the door! Lin, come out! Why are you hiding in the room with the door closed in broad daylight? What new daughter-in-law is like you? Don't teach my son bad things! Open the door!"

All the charming atmosphere was gone. The mother-in-law's obscene and suspicious words made Lin Yuwei so angry that her face turned red. She said in a trembling voice: "Brother Meng, listen, listen, what is mother saying and what does she mean? I am your family's new daughter-in-law. How can the Lin family not be worthy of your Meng family? It would be fine if she didn't express gratitude, but she actually said such words!"

Meng Mingchi was also embarrassed, but Lin Yuwei's words were also very harsh - yes, she married into the Meng family, she was great! But didn't she do it on her own initiative? It wasn't the Meng family who forced her. What did she mean by saying this now!

"Mom didn't mean it. It's our fault. I haven't seen her since I came back."

Meng Mingchi hurriedly opened the door and said with a smile: "Mom, we were just about to go look for you——"

“Get out of the way,” Meng’s mother pushed Meng Mingchi away, rushed forward and slapped Lin Yuwei in the face, pointing at the screaming and dazed Lin Yuwei and scolded: “You shameless and despicable thing, my Zifang has such a deep hatred for you, and you actually cheated her like that! Is there any sister-in-law like you? Cry, cry, cry, you still have the nerve to cry!”

Mother Meng raised her hand to hit someone, but Meng Mingchi quickly stopped her. He was also a little angry, "Mom, what's going on? Wei'er did something wrong, how could you hit her? Can't you talk it out nicely?"

"You are still protecting her. Ask yourself what she has done!" Mother Meng said angrily, "She actually instigated your sister to seduce that marquis and make a fool of herself in the Lin family. If this gets out, how can your sister live? Tell me, should she be beaten?"

Meng Mingchi was dumbfounded: "How-how is this possible!"

Mother Meng sneered, "How could Zifang be wrong? Did Zifang wrongly accuse her? Humph, I knew she wasn't a good person. If she was really a good person, would the Lin family let her marry us?"

Lin Yuwei felt ashamed, embarrassed, angry and humiliated, and she covered her face and cried.
