Reborn to raise a baby, Princess Heng has become stronger

In front of the general's mansion, a carriage with the Song family emblem slowly stopped.

In the carriage, Meng Shuyao grabbed Song Jinyan's sleeve hesitantly, "Ayan, will General Cheng and the others meet us?"

Song Jinyan's expression was calm.

He didn't know what to do.

If it were in the past, he would definitely not have this concern.

Although he did not marry Meng Yunshang, the Cheng family's attitude towards him did not change.

Cheng Yao, Cheng Hui and other younger members of the Cheng family still treat him as a brother.

Several ladies in the Cheng family would often invite Shuyao and Wanyang to their homes for a small gathering.

But since returning to Beijing, everything seems to have changed.

Especially the last time Cheng Yao returned to Beijing, he came to the general's mansion for a small gathering, and Cheng Yao's attitude at that time was very intriguing.

In addition, he wrote to Northwest several times later.

But I haven't received a response.

He did not receive any news when the Cheng family returned to Beijing to report on their work.

If it weren't for the commotion caused by Prince Heng and Meng Jinyou and his sister picking up people at the city gate yesterday, he wouldn't even know that General Cheng and his family had returned to the capital.

As a former general of the Northwest Army, it would not make sense for him to return to Beijing without visiting his superiors.

What's more, it is now difficult for him to take a step in the capital.

If he could get a word or two of advice from General Cheng, his life in the capital would definitely be much easier in the future.

After calming down, he slowly spoke, "The old general is a reasonable man, he will definitely not turn us away."

He said this not only to Meng Shuyao, but also to himself.

It seemed that this gave him more courage to knock on the Cheng family's door.

Meng Shuyao had no idea what he was thinking, but thought he was confident, so she breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, he turned to his daughter, "Wan'er, you have to be sweet later, okay? And don't forget to say hello to Anle, Xile and the other brothers, you two are childhood sweethearts."

The Cheng family has many grandchildren, and several of them are about the same age as Wan Yang.

She didn't like the Northwest before, thinking it was bitterly cold and not suitable for long-term residence. She also looked down on the naughty kids in the Cheng family and never thought of letting her daughter marry into the Cheng family.

Even though several young ladies of the Cheng family had raised this question jokingly, she had rejected it.

But things are different now. The Song family is at the bottom of the list in the capital, and with the two bitches Chen Qimeng and Rufang around, it is impossible for her Wan Yang to marry into a rich family and become the mistress.

Therefore, she could only settle for the second best and choose the grandson of the eldest wife of the Cheng family.

It’s a pity that Song Wanyang didn’t understand her intention.

As soon as she heard that she was going to play with Cheng Anle and others, she immediately became unhappy.

"I don't want to play with them. They are so rude. Mother, have you forgotten that you said before that the Cheng family are all barbarians and asked me to stay away from them?"

Meng Shuyao paused, looking a little unnatural.

After hearing this, Song Jinyan looked at Meng Shuyao fiercely, "You told the child that the Cheng family are barbarians?"

"No, it's not," Meng Shuyao quickly shook her head to deny, "Ayan, don't get me wrong, that's not what I meant."

"Then what do you mean?"

"I," Meng Shuyao was heartbroken by the question and wanted to avoid it.

But Song Jinyan looked at her stubbornly and insisted that she give an answer.

Meng Shuyao had no choice but to explain, "You know the boys in the Cheng family, they are always climbing trees and digging holes. I was worried that Wan'er would learn their bandit habits and fail to learn the manners of a lady, so..."

Song Jinyan asked coldly, "Can't you learn the manners of a noble lady by playing with the younger generation of the Cheng family?"

"Isn't it? Look at the younger generations of the Cheng family. Which one of them is decent? They are always covered in dust. If you don't know them, you would think they are from a beggar's den..."

"Meng Shuyao!"

Song Jinyan suddenly interrupted her loudly.

“You can disagree with their educational methods, but you cannot denigrate or despise them.”

"In my opinion, the men of the Cheng family are brave and good at fighting, and the women of the Cheng family are as brave as men. Even the old servants who sweep the floor in the mansion are veterans who have retired from the battlefield. They all deserve respect from the whole mansion."

"If you don't agree with this, don't go down."

"I didn't say I didn't respect them," Meng Shuyao explained with a pale face, "I'm just, I'm just worried about affecting Wan Yang's reputation."

Song Jinyan sneered, "If you are worried about affecting Wan Yang, then why are you letting her take the initiative to talk to the Cheng family kid now?"

"..."

Meng Shuyao was speechless when asked.

You can't say that you looked down on the younger generation of the Cheng family before and now you want to curry favor with them.

"Dad, don't blame mom. She's doing this for my own good."

Song Wanyang carefully pleaded for Meng Shuyao, and her pleading eyes made Song Jinyan soften his heart for a moment.

But when I think about Meng Shuyao arriving at the Cheng family’s gate, she still dares to say bad things about the Cheng family.

His anger grew rapidly, and his tone towards Song Wanyang became even more vicious.

"If she really wanted to do good for you, she should have raised you in a generous and elegant manner instead of being so timid and petty."

Meng Shuyao was shocked and looked at Song Jinyan in disbelief, "You think I'm petty?"

"You used to praise me for being dignified, generous, gentle and virtuous."

Song Jinyan wanted to say something but stopped.

He had been in the Northwest for many years and had seen many bold and tough women there. When he first saw Meng Shuyao, who was gentle, quiet, and bookish, when he returned to the capital, he was struck by her beauty.

I feel that this is the ideal wife who can be content with being frugal and managing the household, and taking care of her husband and children.

As for Meng Yunshang, she has a passionate and unrestrained personality and is definitely not a good wife and mother.

So, as Meng Shuyao came into contact with him again and again, the scale in his heart slowly tilted towards Meng Shuyao.

In the end, he couldn't resist her temptation and secretly went with her in the general's mansion.

He regretted it afterwards, but Meng Shuyao's gentleness and thoughtfulness made him feel deeply moved.

Five years after marriage, he was praised by Meng Shuyao in every way, and he felt that he should marry such a virtuous woman.

But all this was broken when he returned to Beijing injured.

Five years later, when he met Meng Yunshang again, he realized that Meng Yunshang's bold and unrestrained character was something Meng Shuyao would never be able to learn.

The perfect wife he thinks of will become worldly when she encounters conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, or between sister-in-law and sister-in-law.

Then he began to regret it.

I regret giving up Meng Yunshang, I regret being bewitched by Meng Yunchuan, and choosing the useless Meng Shuyao.

He went to find Meng Yunshang and wanted to tell her about his regrets.

But Meng Yunshang no longer had the affection she had for him when they were young.

He just lost the girl whose eyes were full of him.

Meng Shuyao has been with him for many years and already knows his every move.

Seeing him like this, she immediately understood, "You now feel that I am not as good as Meng Yunshang, so you regret marrying me, right?"

Song Jinyan's expression froze. What he thought in his heart was one thing, but what was said out loud was another.

He shouted coldly, "Nonsense!"

"You know best whether it's nonsense or not," Meng Shuyao retorted without showing any weakness.

Song Jinyan's face turned pale from choking.

He looked at Meng Shuyao coldly, then lifted the curtain and jumped out of the carriage.
