Dressed as a concubine instead of a concubine

He had come to the capital happily, hoping to benefit from his daughter's help and serve as an official in the court again.

But this daughter was clearly favored by the prince, but she didn't help him at all.

That's fine. As long as she is doing well in Prince Qi's Mansion and her son goes to high school, her future will be bright.

Now, look what has happened. She has become arrogant and domineering because of her favor. She doesn't know her place and even dares to go against Princess Rong'an. Isn't she asking for being abandoned?

Having lost the favor of the prince and having offended the future princess, the Meng family's life will probably be even more difficult than before.

If it weren't for Meng Fan's participation in the imperial examination next year, they would have packed up their bags and gone wherever they came from.

He gets angry when he sees his daughter now. If her surname was not Meng and the Wen family had been honest and well-behaved over the years, he would never let Meng Xiyue enter the Meng family again.

She should be grateful for being given a place to stay and food to eat. She curled up in that corner, living a good life, and even dared to come here to seek a sense of existence.

"Father, this yard seems to still be under my name. To put it bluntly, you live in my yard. Do you think it's appropriate for me to live in a shabby yard?"

Meng Xiyue didn't have the energy to argue with her, so she just asked Qianxiang to take out the land deed.

Although this courtyard was originally arranged by Xie Junyi, just in case, she still gave the silver to Xie Junyi and transferred the title deed to her own name.

I had planned to wait until Meng Fan got into high school and then transfer the money to his name as a gift.

Now it has become her capital to gain a foothold in this family.

"Meng Xiyue, what do you mean? Isn't your last name Meng? You are the daughter of the Meng family. All your things were given to you by the Meng family. They belong to the Meng family."

Meng Qingxiang's face turned red with anger. "Since you were a child, everything you used was from the Meng family. Have I, as your father, ever calculated it for you?"

"Yue'er, forget it."

It was rare for Wen to see Meng Qingxiang so angry, and for a moment, she was a little scared.

Meng Xiyue ignored her and continued speaking without giving in.

"Father, don't be so excited. I'm not going to settle anything. I took out this deed just to make it clear that I have the right to choose where to live in this villa."

"You rebellious girl..."

"Okay, father, let Yue'er live wherever she wants. That courtyard was originally occupied by Aunt Wen. I don't need another study."

Meng Fan said impatiently, "The most important thing for a family is unity. What's the point of quarreling all day long?"

"Besides, Yue'er is also a victim. We, as family members, are incompetent and cannot seek justice for her, nor can we join outsiders in bullying her."

Meng Fan's words severely slapped the faces of all the Meng family members present, including the Wen family.

Her eyes instantly turned red and she burst into tears, thinking how useless she was as a mother.

She looked up at her daughter and said in a trembling voice.

"Master, Madam, it's so remote that the roof beams are about to collapse. It's really impossible to live there."

"Okay, it's not a big deal, but it has become like this." Cui looked like a dignified and generous mistress at this moment.

"Since Yue'er wants to live in Lingzhu Courtyard, you should move back."

Hearing this, Meng Qingxiang snorted coldly and said nothing more in the end.

"Thank you ma'am, sir."

Wen then pulled Meng Xiyue out of the main hall.

Returning to Lingzhu Courtyard, Wen felt extremely guilty.

"Yue'er, I'm sorry. It's all because of me, as a useless mother, that I can't protect you."

"It's okay. I can include myself."

Meng Xiyue never had such high expectations for Wen Shi, and she was already doing her best to love her.

It's just that she is cowardly by nature, and coupled with the rules she has been following since she was a child, she can't do anything to resist.

"Yue'er..."

"Mom, I'm tired and want to take a rest."

Meng Xiyue was really tired. She didn't sleep all night and was packing up at dawn.

She hasn't eaten a single bite of food yet, and she's so tired that she can hardly open her eyes.

"Okay, okay, then you take a nap first, and I'll go make you some food."

Wen quickly spoke to comfort her.

On this side, Meng Qingxiang's anger still hadn't dissipated.

But he was more worried. After returning to the selection room, he told Cui about his worries.

"You said that now Yue'er has offended the prince and the princess. Will our Meng family be retaliated against in the capital?"

If it weren't for the fact that Meng Fan was about to take the imperial examination, he would have wanted to return to Qingyun City immediately.

There are too many important figures in this capital city, and if you are not careful you will be doomed.

In the past, with the support of Prince Qi, no one dared to do anything to them, but now it is hard to say.

"We still have to leave quickly after Fan's ergology exam is over."

Cui looked at his cowardly look and curled her lips secretly. She didn't want to go back.

She also hoped that after Meng Fan graduated from high school, she would be able to gain a foothold in Beijing.

What's so good about Qingyun City? You can see the end of it at a glance.

When Meng Fan becomes an official in Beijing, and marries a daughter of a wealthy family like Jiang Chubai did, his future will be limitless.

And her daughter, Meng Qingge, can only find a good family in the capital. There are not many young talents in Qingyun City.

Thinking of this, she said with a little distress.

"What the master said makes sense, but we have no conflicts with others. Although the prince abandoned Yue'er, he doesn't like her and just throws her away like a little toy. He doesn't care about her anymore. The prince is busy with many things. He won't keep an eye on our Meng Mansion."

"The only person we are worried about is the future Princess Qi, the current Princess Rong'an. After all, Yue'er took advantage of her favor and bullied her. I'm sure she must be angry."

"That's right." Meng Qingxiang sighed heavily, "This Princess Rong'an has Prince Ning'an behind her, and she will be the Princess of Qi in the future, and maybe in the future..."

"If we offend her, our Meng family will be in trouble." The more Meng Qingxiang talked about it, the more worried he became.

"I really regret letting that girl come back. If it doesn't work, I'll send her away."

"That won't do. After all, she is the daughter of the Meng family. If we don't let her in, it will make outsiders laugh at her."

Cui hurriedly tried to stop Meng Xiyue from coming back. Others would only say that she, as the mistress, was vicious and intolerant, and she didn't want to be stigmatized.

"Then what do you think we should do? If we just keep serving her like this, it will be too late if we really wait for Princess Rong An to deal with our Meng family."

For the sake of his daughter, Meng Qingxiang had to offend Princess Rong'an. No matter how he thought about it, it would be difficult for him to make ends meet.

"Yue'er was originally meant to pave the way for my and Fan'er's future careers as officials. Now she has become an obstacle. How can we tolerate her?"

"Master, we can't drive them out, but there are other options."

Cui stretched out her hand and spoke while massaging Meng Qingxiang.

"Princess Rong An is not intolerant of Yue'er, but she is afraid that she will use some means to return to Prince Qi's Mansion."
