Chapter 2133

"It's God's blessing, and it's your grace, Your Majesty! My daughter-in-law often says that if it weren't for your kindness, she wouldn't have dared to imagine the life she has today." Madam Meng was very happy and her face was flushed. She was really in high spirits when good things happened.

She said frankly that when she went to the Duke's Mansion to check the Duke's wife's pulse, she fell in love with Mrs. Gui at first sight.

But at that time, her son Chang Gui's leg was still lame, and Sister Gui was the managing nanny of the Duke of Heguo's Mansion, with a huge difference in status.

Madam Meng didn't dare to mention it at all, for fear that others would look down on her.

Later, because the wife of Duke Heguo, Wei Cailing, wanted to make clothes, Chang Gui was summoned to the mansion, and Sister Gui was the one who received him throughout the whole process.

After a few interactions, the two actually fell in love with each other.

Mrs. Gui likes Changgui's honesty and diligence; Changgui likes Mrs. Gui's efficiency, sincerity, and lack of habit of looking down on others.

In addition, Lady Meng deliberately created opportunities, and the marriage was finally arranged. However, there was a setback before the marriage.

Chang Gui's runaway wife Wang came back when she learned that her husband had become rich. At that time, the two sides were discussing marriage, and Wang went straight to the Heguo Mansion and accused Gui Sao of seducing her husband.

"It was thanks to the Duke's wife's strong measures that Wang was sent directly to the government office and charged with abandonment." Madam Meng spoke of this past with saliva flying.

It really makes people happy.

That Wang abandoned her disabled husband and two young children and ran away, and also took away her mother-in-law's money.

After the government collected evidence, they imposed a combined punishment for the three crimes. According to the principle of "three crimes are punished more severely" in the Beiyi Law, the main punishment was the serious crime of leaving her husband and abandoning her children, and the additional punishment of the crime of property infringement was added, and the combined punishment was "40 strokes of the cane and exile for 3,000 miles", and the stolen silver was recovered.

Madam Meng smiled happily, and while peeling melon seeds, she said to Shi Anxia, "Whether the money can be recovered or not is a small matter. The most important thing is not to delay my son's marriage..."

After Gui Sao and Chang Gui got married, they loved each other very much.

Chang Gui had good skills and was constantly busy. The rules of the tailor shop were fair, and a craftsman with his skills could earn three cents of interest for every piece of clothing he made.

Chang Gui bent over his desk every day, and as his ten fingers flew, the silver and money gradually piled up into a ball like thread ends.

At that time, Gui Sao's daughter was engaged to someone else, and Chang Gui worked day and night to make clothes in order to prepare more dowry for his daughter.

Mrs. Gui was moved and became more caring towards her husband, more sincere to her mother-in-law, and treated Chang Gui's children as her own.

Whatever her own daughter had, she would provide equally for Chang Gui's two children.

Chang Gui’s children had never received maternal love since childhood. When someone was kind to them, they naturally changed their way of calling her “mother”.

Mrs. Gui took great pains to get her children married, running around and making sure everything was done properly. Who among the in-laws didn't praise the stepmother for her kindness?

Mrs. Gui’s monthly salary is not low, so she is confident and manages the household in order.

In short, the family is happy and their lives are getting better and better.

Madam Meng hadn't seen Shi Anxia for a long time, so she had a lot to talk about. She chatted excitedly about all kinds of family matters for half the afternoon.

Shi Anxia loved to listen, and kept a frown on her face the whole time, occasionally asking a few questions.

The helping hands that were extended and the umbrellas that were held up for others in those years finally had a perfect follow-up.

Shi Anxia deliberately invited Madam Meng to have dinner in the palace, but she was afraid that her husband's presence would make Madam Meng uncomfortable, so she sent someone to tell her husband to go to the East Palace to have a meal with her son.

When Cen Yuan walked over, the little prince bowed to him in a dignified manner, seemingly behaving properly for a moment before he laughed at him in a mean way, "The Queen Mother must have guests, and the Emperor has been driven to his place again."

Cen Yuan couldn't help but use the tip of her tongue to push against her back teeth, and she clenched her fist and wanted to hit someone, "Yi Yi, your butt is itchy again, isn't it?"
