My sister must marry someone else? Why are you crying when I marry the King of War?
Chapter 99: Meng Mu's vulgar revelation
The mother and daughter didn't know that the wife of Duke Rong had sent clothes and money to the Meng family two days ago, asking them to wait at home today, and the government would send a carriage to pick them up. But they might have to wait a little longer.
Mr. and Mrs. Meng were so happy that their mouths were about to be crooked with smiles, and of course they agreed without hesitation.
Lady Rong didn't want them to come too early, so she said and did this on purpose.
In her heart, Gu had never acknowledged that the Meng family was her in-laws, and now she didn't want to see anyone from their family.
She thought for a moment and said, "I won't go. It would be awkward to meet them. I'll go visit the Crown Prince's wife as well."
Lin Yuwei nodded: "Okay, when mother comes out from my sister-in-law, she will go to the banquet hall."
"I know, don't worry."
Seeing the little girl leading her mother towards Yuyin Garden, Lin Yuwei then took Qingxing and Huaping to pick up Meng's mother and Meng Zifang.
Those two idiots!
Lin Yuwei felt disgusted and proud at the same time.
They couldn't reach her today. Thinking about their vulgar words and actions and their wanton tantrums towards her in the past, Lin Yuwei felt even happier.
She raised her hand and touched her face. The burning sensation from being slapped by Meng's mother was still there. Lin Yuwei sneered contemptuously.
Today, she was determined to avenge herself for all the humiliation she had suffered at the hands of the mother and daughter.
Qing Xing reminded, "Madam San Shao, the Duke's wife said that Madam Meng is your mother-in-law after all. You must take good care of them today and make sure they are satisfied."
Lin Yuwei glanced at her and said, "Of course I know."
We can’t lose face for the Duke’s Mansion!
The mother-in-law was actually overthinking. People like Meng's mother and Meng Zifang must be so satisfied and proud to be here today and to be guests of honor. How else do they need to be taken care of?
Everything they ate and used in the Duke’s Mansion was something they had never seen before. It broadened their horizons, and they were able to experience it firsthand. How could they not be satisfied?
When Lin Yuwei and her servant arrived at the main hall, the wife of Duke Rong, her sisters-in-law, the second young master's wife, Lin Yulan, the mother and daughter of the Fu family, and the women of the Deng and Yan families were also there.
It was a bustling scene filled with flowers and gorgeous clothes.
From a distance, Lin Yuwei could hear Meng Mu's extremely loud voice, "...Mingchi has been smart, filial and capable since he was young. Seven or eight young men in our neighborhood took the examination for the Five Military Commandery, and he was the only one who passed. He is better than the others! Which neighbor doesn't praise him! His father and I have always been proud of him. Our family has gained a lot of glory because of him. When we were just about to arrange a marriage for him, who knew that he was favored by the Lin family again? If he didn't have the ability, how could the fourth-rank official of the Lin family's eldest daughter marry him? Madam Guogong, don't you think so..."
The ladies and young ladies found what he said very interesting. They wanted to laugh but didn't dare to. They had never seen anyone who showed off so much. Not to mention, many of the words sounded quite amusing.
Someone secretly looked at the Duke's wife's face and saw that she was almost on the verge of being unable to bear it any longer.
It just so happened that the Second Lady of the Duke's Mansion and her sister-in-law were smiling and trying to make fun of the situation, pretending not to notice the Duke's wife's expression at all, and deliberately provoking Meng, who was obviously talking too much, to reveal more information.
When Mrs. Meng started to criticize and despise Lin Yuwei, Lin Yuwei couldn't help it and took two steps forward.
"Greetings to mother! Greetings to second aunt! Greetings to stepmother!"
The two families had already discussed it privately. It was obviously inappropriate for Meng Mingchi to call Meng's father and mother "father and mother" anymore. From now on, they would be called "adoptive father" and "adoptive mother", and the two families would treat each other as close relatives.
Meng Mingchi will still take care of them in their old age and see them to the end of their lives.
Meng's mother, Meng Zifang and Lin Yuwei had so many quarrels and fights, and they had even fought. Both sides hated each other so much that when they met now, the atmosphere was already tense before they could even speak.
Mrs. Meng rolled her eyes fiercely at Lin Yuwei, flirting with her while fawning on Lady Rong. "Lady Rong, if you ask me, the Lin family is no longer worthy of our Ming Chi. Don't make any jokes in the future. To be honest, the rules of the Lin family are really not that good! I'm a person who supports the right, not the relatives. I can't hide it for her, otherwise if she gets into trouble in the future, won't it implicate my son?"
Lin Yuwei was so angry that she was shaking: "Stepmother!"
Meng Zifang also got excited, hoping that Lin Yuwei would make a fool of herself. She raised her chin and said, "Sister-in-law, even if you followed my brother back to the Duke of Rong's Mansion, isn't my mother your elder? Look at you, what kind of attitude is this? You are like this in front of so many people, and what about you behind their backs? The Duke's wife doesn't look down on us, so what does this mean to you?"
Lin Yuwei's face turned red and white, and she almost cried.
She was ashamed and angry and choked up, "Stepmother, how can you allow my sister-in-law to slander and frame me like this? After I married Brother Meng, how have I done you wrong? Is my dowry not enough for you? Even for my sister-in-law, I gave a lot, right? Even my personal maid was given to you to serve and do housework, what else do you want from me?"
All the ladies, young ladies and young ladies were in an uproar.
It is extremely shameful for the husband's family to calculate the daughter-in-law's dowry or for the mother-in-law to covet the daughter-in-law's dowry.
Especially among the wealthy and powerful, it is highly despised.
Not to mention saying it so openly, even if it wasn't said out loud, if people knew about it secretly, others would talk about it in private and look down on this family, thinking that this family has bad family traditions and a bad reputation, and they would never become close friends with them.
When the younger generations are talking about marriage, they will definitely avoid this kind of family.
Mother Meng didn't understand that the noble families attached great importance to and were very averse to such matters, but she also knew that this was a shameful matter. Seeing the reactions of the crowd, she became even more angry and subconsciously slapped Lin Yuwei and cursed: "Bullshit! What are you talking about here, you little bitch? When did I take your dowry? You are wronging me, God bless you!"
Everyone exclaimed.
Fortunately, Meng's mother came to her senses, put down her slap in a panic, turned to look at the wife of Duke Rong, and smiled with wrinkles on her face: "Madam, I just made that little bitch angry, please don't be angry. This little bitch just needs to be disciplined. You have to take the trouble to teach her in the future, or she will embarrass you when she goes out!"
The wife of Duke Rong's face turned pale, and her chest was filled with rage.
Lin's useless thing!
Didn't she ask someone to pass on a message to her? She was told to take good care of the mother and daughter of the Meng family and not to let them cause any trouble at the family recognition banquet?
Well, well, she turned a deaf ear to my words, didn't she? Instead of appeasing these rude mother and daughter, she added fuel to the fire!
If she said something like she was greedy for dowry, the mother and daughter of the Meng family would lose face. How could she, a daughter-in-law and sister-in-law who exposed the shortcomings of her mother-in-law and sister-in-law in public and had no respect for the elders and no friendliness towards her peers, have a good reputation?
