After the replacement marriage, I was forced to fight at home

"Ah?" The two said in unison. Wang took Meng Wan's hand and walked out. "Where? Where? Didn't you say you wouldn't come back? How come you're free?"

"Mother, please go slowly. The road outside is slippery and cold. Please wait inside the house." Wang stopped when she heard this. Perhaps she remembered that she was not so excited when Meng Wan came back just now. She was afraid that her second daughter would think too much, so she said softly, "It's really your fourth sister who is not like you. She hasn't sent back a letter for ten days or half a month. I miss her."

"I know that my fourth sister has grown up and has become more calm, smart and capable. She has her own rules in mind. Don't worry. Just take good care of your health and don't make my fourth sister worry."

Meng Wan knew why Wang explained it this way. In Wang's heart, there was no comparison between her and Meng Qi. Wang felt more guilty and happy about her loss, and more tender and concerned about Meng Qi. Of course, Meng Wan never compared herself with Meng Qi. There was no point. She was very satisfied now.

Before Wang could reply, the cotton curtain was lifted and Meng Qi strode in wearing an orange cloak. "I didn't know that my second sister thought so highly of me." After saying this, she bowed and greeted Wang.

Meng Wan looked at Meng Qi's cheerful face with a confident smile on it. After saying this, she tilted her head and looked at herself with an expression that said "please praise me". This reminded her of the childish little girl when he told her stories before.

"How could I overestimate you? I'm just being realistic. Not saying no, mother?" Meng Wan and Meng Qi helped Wang, one on each side, to sit back in the chair.

Wang looked at her two daughters, and her heart felt warm and comfortable as if the sun was shining into it. "That's right, that's right. You two both reassured me. You are both my good daughters."

Meng Qi chuckled, "Mother and second sister haven't gone to third sister's place yet?" After getting a positive answer, Meng Qi wanted to go with them.

"Why are you back? Didn't you say you wouldn't come back?" Wang asked with concern.

"Well, originally we were going to accompany the prince to the palace to visit Concubine Lian today, but early in the morning the palace sent back a message saying that Concubine Lian had gone with the emperor to the Puji Temple to enjoy the snow scenery, so we will go tomorrow instead."

"So you can't come tomorrow?"

"Correct."

Meng Wan watched Meng Qi help Wang up and walk towards the door, and asked softly, "But what's the matter, Lady Lian?"

Meng Qi turned around and smiled, "Nothing, just the usual greetings."

Meng Wan obviously didn't believe it, but he didn't ask any more questions.

"Let's go and greet your grandmother first, don't let them make trouble, then go and help Xiujie with her makeup, and then come back for lunch." Wang said happily, and then asked, "Have you all had lunch?"

"I can, what about my second sister?"

"I can too."

Hearing this, Wang was even happier. She turned around and told Madam Guo to prepare the dishes the two young ladies liked, and then called Zhang and brought the children over.

Mother Guo looked at the two sisters who were guarding Wang on the left and right, and her heart was so happy that it seemed to bloom. She kept responding, "Go and get busy."

Song was also very surprised that Meng Qi came back. After all, she was her granddaughter whom she had loved since she was a child. Song went forward and held Meng Qi's hand to ask about her well-being. Meng Qi was not as cold as last time. Although she was not very enthusiastic, she answered all of Song's questions. However, when Liu and Liu interrupted, she shut up and did not say a word.

Liu was angry, but Jiang remained silent. She was too disdainful to try to please her sister-in-law who had repeatedly insulted her. Although she was marrying a prince, so what? The two legitimate sons had not yet gotten started with the affairs of the palace, and were still firmly in the hands of the concubine. When her two sons grew up, she might not be able to count on them. Therefore, there was no need to be humble and try to please her.

Liu smiled as if she didn't see Meng Qi's cold face, "Oh, it would be great if Second Aunt and Fourth Aunt came back earlier. Sister Juan just left. By the way, you sisters haven't gathered together for a long time. Now that Sister Xiu is getting married, I'm afraid there won't be another opportunity like this."

"What? Third sister is not planning to come back?" Meng Qi turned her head to look at Song.

"How could that be? Even though she is marrying far away, there will be opportunities in the end. Your third aunt has also lived in Beijing for a long time." Song looked at Liu and smiled meaningfully.

Meng Qi nodded. "That's what I said. I thought my third sister would never come back after she got married. So what does Third Aunt mean is that my eldest sister is leaving Beijing? Does that mean she will never come back?"

When Liu heard this, her smiling face instantly turned pale. What kind of words were these? How could the daughter-in-law of the Baron Bo's mansion, a proper Beijing lady, leave Beijing and not come back?

Seeing that Liu was about to speak, Meng Qi continued, "Oh, look at my head. How could the eldest sister, a good daughter-in-law of the Duke's Mansion, leave the capital so easily? It's also my fault. I shouldn't have dawdled for a while, otherwise I could have seen the eldest sister. Hey, Third Aunt, is the eldest sister still not moving? Do you want to help her find a gynecologist to regulate her? There are very good doctors in the palace, and they all help the ladies regulate their health."

Liu suddenly raised her head, stared at Meng Qi, and snorted coldly, "Don't bother with that, Fourth Aunt. If you have the time, you should take a look for yourself."

"I'm not in a hurry, and my prince is not in a hurry either. After all, he has two legitimate sons. I'm not afraid of being laughed at by everyone, but even if I don't give birth, what does it matter? There will still be people calling me mother." After saying that, he glanced at Liu with a sidelong glance. Liu's face suddenly turned red. Now Meng Juan's failure to get pregnant has become a concern for the mother and daughter.

It’s not that Hong Zhe didn’t go to her room, took tonics, and visited the temple, but he tried every possible way and nothing worked.

Because the one before Hong Zhe died of a difficult labor, so Hong Zhe must be fine, so everyone naturally thought that the one with the problem was Meng Juan.

Meng Juan, who had been married for a few months, also realized that the Bonan Mansion was not as united and harmonious as it was on the outside. As the support for King Jing grew louder, the brothers of the Hong family were secretly competing with each other, all wanting to show off more in front of King Jing and get more credit.

But King Jing and Princess Jing obviously liked and valued Hong Zhe more, which made the two wives target Meng Juan everywhere. The fact that Meng Juan had not yet become pregnant made her a good target for them.

"There are still many things to do in the courtyard, and we have to settle the old women and maids who are here to pick up the bride. I will go back first." Liu stood up with a cold face. Without waiting for everyone's reaction, and without waiting for Song's nod, she lifted the cotton curtain and went out.

Meng Wan understood. She heard that Wu Zhengda was too busy with official business to travel such a long distance and take such a long time to pick up the bride. Meng Hai sent his deputy general to bring people to meet Meng Xiu, and waited until they arrived in the northwest to formally get married.

As for the female members, since Wu Zhengda was an orphan, an old mother who had always been with him came with Liu's housekeeper mother who had stayed in the northwest.

Meng Qi watched Liu walk out in a rage, not hiding her happiness at all. She turned her head to look at Jiang who was looking at her with her mouth open, and turned her head away with disdain, "Second sister, let's accompany mother to see third sister."

Meng Wan nodded, and Song also came to her senses. She felt very comfortable with Meng Qi's words that had just been used against Liu. She kept saying, "Go quickly, go quickly, and have lunch with grandma later."

"No need to trouble grandma. Mother has already arranged it in the yard." Meng Qi said as he took Wang's cloak and put it on her without even looking at Song's expression.

Liu watched Liu and Song being humiliated, feeling happy. She stood up and was about to speak when Meng Wan smiled and said, "My third sister is getting married tomorrow. Although her husband is not personally welcoming her, the procedure is not that complicated, but my second aunt must have many things to do. I won't bother you. We can go by ourselves."

Liu smiled and said, "In that case, let your sister-in-law go with you."

When Jiang heard what Liu said, she felt uncomfortable because she had never looked at her two sisters-in-law since she entered the house. Seeing Liu winking at her, she stood up and opened her mouth to say something, but Wang waved her hand, "No, go help your aunt. I guess you always hang around her. You know more about your second aunt's habits than Xu Ge's wife."

Xu Ge's wife is Liu's own daughter-in-law. What Wang said was really a slap in Jiang's face.

Meng Wan also put on a cloak, without saying a word or looking at the expressions of those people, and helped Wang out of the door. However, Meng Qi turned around and looked at Jiang as if she was a cat or a dog, with a look of contempt, and followed Meng Wan out of the door with a cold snort.
