Dressed as a concubine instead of a concubine

Fifteenth

This day is not only Meng Xiyue’s birthday, but also Princess Rong’an Cui Panxi’s birthday.

Therefore, Xie Junyi was about to leave at dawn.

Before leaving, he came to Meng Xiyue's bed, kissed her on the forehead, and said softly, "Wait for me to come back."

"Your Majesty."

Meng Xiyue looked at him with misty eyes, like a lost kitten, which made Xie Junyi feel itchy and he couldn't help but kiss her.

"what happened?"

"I want to see my aunt."

"Okay, I will send someone to bring her here."

Hearing this, Meng Xiyue's eyes flashed with disappointment. It seemed that he would not allow her to step out of Chengshan Villa from now on.

Is this going to trap her for life?

"Besides Aunt Wen, is there anyone else you want to see?"

Today is her birthday, and Xie Junyi feels guilty for not being able to be with her all the time.

"Nothing."

There was no one else in that house worthy of her meeting.

Not long after Xie Junyi left, Wen was sent here.

As soon as she saw her, Wen couldn't help crying, "Yue'er, are you okay?"

"Nothing, I'm fine here."

Meng Xiyue raised her eyes and looked at Zhiyue, "You and Qianxiang please go out first. I want to talk to my aunt alone."

"This..." Zhiyue looked embarrassed, "I am here to serve the young lady and the lady."

"Just stand guard outside the door. I can't get out, so I won't run away."

Her words made Zhiyue blush and she quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, Miss."

"I know you have received orders to follow me closely. I won't make things difficult for you."

She knew that even when she slept at night, there were people guarding outside her house, and her every move was being watched.

Even with such careful surveillance, she still had to be imprisoned.

I have to say, in terms of persistence, the two are really magically similar.

"Thank you, Miss. I will be waiting outside."

After speaking out, Zhiyue's guilt was alleviated a little.

"Yue'er, you are here..."

Seeing this situation, Wen felt even more uncomfortable. She thought Prince Qi was very good to Meng Xiyue, but she didn't expect that he was still monitoring her like this.

"Nothing, except that you can't leave the yard without permission, everything else is fine."

Meng Xiyue concealed the bitterness in her eyes.

"Yue'er, just follow Prince Qi peacefully and don't make any more trouble. Looking at the current situation, he will never allow you to marry someone else."

"Your father told you to say this, didn't he?"

The person who most wanted her to be Prince Qi's concubine was her father.

"Your father..."

"Okay, auntie, I asked you to come here today just to keep me company. Let's not talk about other unhappy things, okay?"

Meng Xiyue leaned in her arms, trying to feel the motherly love that belonged to her.

Let her feel that her aunt only has her in her heart.

"Okay, I'll listen to you. Today is your birthday, so I'll celebrate it the way you say."

"Aunt, do you still remember the day I was born?"

Meng Xiyue thought that should be the first day she traveled through time, as she also died on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month in her previous life.

Wen's body stiffened slightly, and a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes, "That day..."

"It wasn't your birthday yet, and I wanted to go to the temple to burn incense on that day, but there were too many people there that day, and the road was blocked..."

Wen fell into reminiscence, "Later, I took a small road that few people knew about."

It's a detour through the mountain. It's a wild mountain and it's said there are wild beasts in it. So even if people know the way, few dare to take it.

But she left anyway in order to pray for her unborn baby.

No wild beast was encountered, but instead someone was being chased.

For no apparent reason, a child was stuffed into her body.

Perhaps because of fear, she gave birth as soon as she arrived at the temple.

However, the baby girl died at birth.

She couldn't accept it and cried her heart out.

It was the maidservant beside her who said that her child was not dead and that this was her child.

That was the child she had saved. Looking at the delicate little baby in her arms, he was looking at her with his round eyes.

She looked exactly like the daughter she imagined. As if possessed, she concealed the fact that her daughter had died.

And the baby girl became her real daughter, and no one knew about it except her and her personal maid.

Because she felt guilty, she had everyone throw away everything Meng Xiyue was wearing when she was born.

Including the items her biological mother left for her to identify herself with.

She didn't know whether the woman survived or not, nor did she know whether anyone had looked for Meng Xiyue.

In the first few years, she didn't dare go out and stayed in the Meng Mansion all day.

Later, it seemed that no news was heard.

In short, after so many years, Meng Xiyue has become her real daughter.

"Auntie...Auntie..."

Meng Xiyue looked up at Wen who suddenly fell into deep thought and called out.

"Ah, what's wrong?"

Wen came to her senses and realized that she hadn't thought about this matter for a long time.

“You took the small path, and then what?”

"Then, you were born early, in a temple."

Wen reached out and touched her head lovingly.

"From now on, mother is no longer a person."

"Aunt, I will always be with you. You don't have to be afraid whether I am with you or not."

In fact, Wen was very timid. She was raised by her father when she was young, and after she got married, she was raised by Meng Qingxiang.

She only learned to be dependent, believing that men are the gods and women only need to take care of their husbands and children.

She probably never knew what resistance was.

Meng Xiyue couldn't tell whether it was fortunate or unfortunate for her to live like this.

Sometimes ignorance can be bliss.

She only knows how to obey, so she was taught to obey from a young age.

But deep down, she will never learn it.

"Auntie is not afraid of anything, but she is worried about you."

Wen knew that her daughter was ambitious, but as her biological mother, she could not give her any support.

"I'm fine. I've figured it out."

"That's good. You are alone now, so it's inevitable that you have wild thoughts. In the future, you can ask the prince to give you a child. With your own flesh and blood relatives, you will have support."

Wen gave instructions, as if letting Meng Xiyue go her own way.

"Aunt, I won't be able to be filial to you in the future, so take this."

Meng Xiyue interrupted her and took out a document from her pocket.

"I did something for the Zhou family, and this is their thanks to me."

"This is... fifty taels?"

"That's right. From now on, the Zhou family will give you fifty taels of silver every month. I hope you can keep this money for yourself. But if the Meng family is in trouble and you want to use it for public use, I don't object. In short, it's up to you."

The Meng family has no property in the capital, and their lives are becoming increasingly difficult. If Meng Fan fails to graduate from high school next year, they will definitely not be able to survive in the capital.
