Dressed as a middle-aged mistress, I want to lie down every day

Chapter 169: Are you really at peace with yourself?

Mo Chenxi felt relieved in his heart, as if it had been tightly gripped before, but after a sigh just now, his tightly gripped heart loosened.

I have never felt so peaceful and comfortable.

The original body understood this from her conversations with the Queen Mother over the past year, so she left.

There is nothing to be unwilling about. Your efforts are made willingly, and you don't have to expect anything in return from the other party.

When the Queen Mother saw Mo Chenxi's relaxed smile, she wanted to know whether this woman was willing to accept that her previous hard work had gone in vain.

she asked.

Mo Chenxi said, "I felt unwilling before, but after being sick, I figured it out. I can only blame myself. No one forced me to do anything. From now on, I must first be myself, not live for anyone else. No matter what, as long as I am at peace, even if it means being a little selfish, why should others think about themselves, while I have to think about others?"

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "Are you not afraid that others will say you are not virtuous?"

"No matter how well you do, those who complain will still complain. I no longer mind what others say. People with different ideals cannot work together. Those who share the same ideals are friends. Those who share the same ideals are friends. Those who share the same ideals work together, those who share the same heart, those who share the same path, and those who share the same path walk together. If that doesn't happen, solitude is also a form of spiritual practice."

The Queen Mother remained silent for a long time, and finally said, "You can go back. Thank you for accompanying my cousin."

Mo Chenxi bowed and left.

I don't know what the Queen Mother wants her to do.

The Queen Mother was thinking about the late Queen Mother, her aunt. Before her death, the late Queen Mother resented her and said, "You could have restrained him, you could have suppressed him, but you let him do whatever he wanted. You just wanted to kill the father and keep the son! You are a cruel woman!"

What did she say?

"You clearly knew what kind of person your son was, yet you chose me. Because I have no family to rely on, I am at the mercy of you and your son. You are his mother, yet you can't control me. You made me the villain. If I had listened to you, I'm afraid I would have died long ago. I was just trying to save my own life."

She appeared to obey the late empress dowager and punished a few eunuchs without causing any harm, but she would not touch the late emperor's beloved.

That's why the late emperor allowed her to live.

This path was chosen by the late emperor, what does it have to do with her?

The late emperor was willing to die in happiness, but she just turned a blind eye and even covered up for him.

When the late emperor was about to die, the late empress dowager found out that she had been disobeying his orders and accused her of not fulfilling her duties as empress and disappointing her aunt's expectations of her.

She has no regrets.

However, recently she always dreams that the late emperor is smiling at her.

The Queen Mother knew that if she had interfered, the late emperor would not have indulged in lust so recklessly and would not have died so early.

Does she really have a clear conscience?

Mrs. Mo said that as long as one is at peace, even if it is a little selfish, she said that as long as what she has done is worthy of heaven and earth, why should she be afraid of anything else?

The Queen Mother's brows relaxed and she breathed a sigh of relief.

Wang Jingye was in another room, looking out of the window. Mrs. He came out, so he waved his hand and the servants arranged for a coachman to take Mrs. He back to Beijing.

But my cousin hadn't come out for a long time, and it was not convenient for Wang Jingye to go in.

After a long while, Eunuch Liang came over and let him in.

After entering, the first thing I noticed was that my cousin had a soft expression, without the fierce look in her eyes as when she first arrived.

He was terrified after hearing about what happened that year, but his cousin stood straight, her lips tightly pursed, and her eyes were not only full of hostility, but also full of blood.

Yes, it feels bloody.

His cousin was only twelve years old that year, and from then on, he never looked down on any woman again.

After Wang Jingye entered, he pretended to be relaxed and said, "Time flies so fast! The New Year is almost here."

The Queen Mother said, "My grandfather will be here in about ten days."

Wang Jingye put away his smile and waited to hear his cousin's arrangements.

"In a couple of days, there will be a banquet at the residence of Grand Secretary Li. You can ask the brothers Chengping and Cheng'an to bring their families to the banquet."

Wang Jingye didn't ask, but just nodded slowly.

He thought his cousin wanted Chengping and Cheng'an to get closer to Li Daxueshi's mansion, after all, the Li family was Chengping's uncle's family.

The Queen Mother added, "The head of the Ji family will appear."

Wang Jingye raised his eyebrows and understood that this was to allow the two brothers-in-law to get closer to the Ji family.

"Let my cousin's wife take Mrs. Mo with her. She's quite interesting. Give her a hand and see what she becomes in the future."

Mo Chenxi returned home and thought over the conversation with Queen Mother Wang from the beginning, but he couldn't guess what Queen Mother meant.

The Queen Mother asked her about the dream and asked her if she was willing to accept it. Could it be that the Queen Mother also had things that she was unwilling to accept?

Could it be that the late emperor disliked the empress dowager, and the empress dowager did so much, just like her, but was not recognized, so she was unwilling to accept it?

I also wondered whether my answer was appropriate and whether it would offend the superiors.

I couldn't figure it out after thinking about it for a long time. Forget it, the two of them are not on the same level. Don't try to guess what the person in a higher position is thinking. It's just a waste of time.

The next day, the mother next to Mrs. Wang came over and said that Mrs. Wang was going to attend a banquet at the residence of Li Daxueshi. She was not familiar with the capital, and her junior sister was newly married and it was not convenient for her to go out, so she invited her to go with her.

After hearing this, Mo Chenxi first breathed a sigh of relief. The Queen Mother did not have any opinion about her because of her nonsense, otherwise she would not have allowed her to have any contact with the Wang family.

Fortunately, I prepared several new sets of clothes and bought new jewelry in advance, otherwise I would only appear in wealthy families in the future, and it would be embarrassing if I looked shabby.

She would not naively think that she could conquer the ancients with the beauty in her heart or stand out from the crowd with her modern thinking.

So, people are clothes and horses are saddles.

At the He family, He Wenliang followed He Wenyan to Tongzhou to learn flower-growing. He Wenpu was more concerned about his family than before. As a concubine's son, he wanted the He family to be better. Moreover, his wife was now the housekeeper, and he would check the account book every day for fear of making mistakes.

Fan was still breastfeeding. As long as she did not miss out on food and drink for the third wife, she would not care about anything else, for fear that she would be asked to manage the household in the future. Whenever she saw her second sister-in-law, she would praise her. Whatever her parents gave her, she would share with her eldest and second sisters-in-law, and no longer hide it secretly like before.

In short, the He family, with Madam Jiang away and He not coming, lives are in good order even though Mo Chenxi is no longer the housekeeper.

Just like what Doctor Zhang said, others can still live without you and will not starve to death.

Mo Chenxi didn't use the public account to buy fabrics and jewelry, and everyone thought that the Mo family was subsidizing their daughter. The Mo family restaurant was doing a booming business, and even Fan, who never went out, heard about it. But the eldest sister-in-law was no longer the same as before. She never asked the restaurant to deliver food, nor did she invite the He family to taste it.

Fan understood and did not complain. She was also a daughter-in-law, and she would not let her parents' family subsidize her husband's family.

There are always shameless people. Even if you point at her nose and explain it clearly, she won't take it seriously.

When I was inspired by my sister-in-law's words, I invited the women from my husband's family to have dinner at Jiujiangli and ordered expensive dishes.

I saw a painting in the private room, and my sister-in-law said that if I hung it in my mother-in-law's room, it would show my filial piety as a daughter-in-law.

He He said with a stiff upper lip: "Take it when you leave. I'll tell my sister-in-law."

The sister-in-law really took down the painting and rolled it up, preparing to take it away after dinner.

The waiter saw it when he was serving the dishes, and went downstairs to tell the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper's headache.

This kind of bad relatives is the most feared. If the host family is not convenient to come forward, the problem has to be solved by the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper must be clear about the host's relatives in advance, otherwise if you don't recognize them when they come, it would be a dereliction of duty.
