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

Old Mrs. Cao carried Cao away, and everyone else was stunned.

No one expected things to turn out like this.

Old Mrs. He regretted that she should have stopped her cousin's wife as soon as she opened her mouth. She didn't interrupt them because she wanted to see how Old Mrs. Cao would deal with her brother's wife.

Mo Chenxi also regretted it. She knew that Old Madam Cao was powerful, and she also wanted to see her deal with her mother-in-law, not just for fun, but for the Cao family.

It's not enough for her to protect Mrs. Cao alone. Only when Mrs. Cao can suppress Mrs. Jiang can Mrs. Cao feel more confident in the He family.

She agreed to the marriage with the Cao family, and she didn't want the Cao family to follow the same path as her original self.

But she didn't expect that her daughter-in-law fainted from anger because of her pregnancy. Old Mrs. Cao was also tough and took her granddaughter back to the Cao family.

She and Old Lady He followed along. Old Lady He took small steps and smiled all the way. "My dear relatives, don't say anything. The child's health is more important. This back and forth is not good for Yue'e's health. Don't worry, I will take good care of Yue'e."

Mrs. Cao did not stop, "It's not that I don't worry about my sister, after all, she is not your granddaughter-in-law. Even if you can take good care of Yue'e, you have to go back to Xiangzhou after all."

Mrs. He can't just tell me to stay here and not leave.

Mo Chenxi couldn't stop her, nor did she dare to stop her. She said, "Aunt Cao, it's all my fault. If I had taken Yue'e away earlier, she wouldn't have fainted."

She didn't ask her daughter-in-law to stay, and Old Lady Cao didn't really intend to let her granddaughter divorce. She just took this opportunity to deal with the He family.

Old Lady Cao said, "I don't blame you. It's my Yue'e who has a miserable life. Not only did she lose her mother, but she also..."

she choked.

When he got outside, he got on the carriage and left without looking back.

He Shanluo followed the carriage all the way to the door and watched it go away stupidly.

Old Mrs. He pushed him and said, "Why don't you go to your father-in-law's house quickly? If you want your wife to come home and your son, just apologize even if you are beaten or scolded."

He Shanluo ran to chase the carriage.

Seeing Mo Chenxi's worried look, Old Mrs. He shook her head and sighed.

The two walked back, Mo Chenxi didn't say a word, she was too lazy to say anything.

What? That mother-in-law is always like this?

Old Mrs. He knew that if she talked too much, she would become Xianglin Sao.

Mo Chenxi didn't go to the front yard. He said goodbye to his aunt and returned to his own yard.

When Old Madam He returned to the front yard, Old Madam Jiang looked anxious and asked, "Are you really pregnant?"

Old Madam He said bitterly, "You don't want to be pregnant? Are you happy to let Shanluo divorce you? Will you choose another marriage for Shanluo?"

Old Madam Jiang said stubbornly, "How could I say that? You heard it too. The Cao family refused to give in. What kind of words did they say? They said my daughter lost her father. I've never seen a family choose a daughter-in-law who lost her father, only a daughter-in-law who lost her mother."

Old Mrs. He felt powerless and understood why the Mo family forced her eldest nephew to send his cousin's wife back to the ancestral home and keep her for three years. Even if the eldest son and daughter were married after three years, his cousin's wife would not be able to make trouble.

Madam Jiang said bitterly, "If I were in the capital, I would never agree to marry someone from the Cao family. They're just a steward. And Jingyi, the one you chose didn't even pass the Tongsheng exam. He's worse than the Gao family. My son-in-law was a Tongsheng back then."

Old Mrs. He was alert, "You don't want Jingyi to cancel the engagement, do you?"

Madam Jiang remained silent. Madam He slammed the table and said, "I'm telling you, don't mess around. If you mess around, have you ever thought about Wen Yan?"

Madam Jiang grumbled, "How could I, as his mother, harm him? Isn't it for his own good?"

Old Mrs. He nodded vigorously twice with her hands, but was unable to speak.

I had no appetite for lunch, so I waited for my eldest nephew to come back from office and took He Wenyan to the study.

After telling the story, He Wenyan's eyes turned black.

"Your mother also said that she didn't like Jingyi's marriage. I told her not to make a fuss and think more about you. Your mother said it was all for your own good."

He Wenyan held on to the table with his hands, his legs shaking.

If the engagement is cancelled, will Doctor Zhao forgive him?

Also, on the Cao family side, although Master Cao is just a master, the Cao family is a big family, and Master Cao is tall and strong, so it would be easy for him to beat the two of them.

"Has Shanluo come back?"

Old Mrs. He said, "No, the Cao family won't do anything to him."

He Wenyan didn't dare to think so. Back then, Cao's brother-in-law favored his concubine and neglected his wife. Cao beat his brother-in-law's head like a pig's head. His brother-in-law knelt in Cao's house for a month before he took his wife home.

Old Mrs. He sighed and said, "Your daughter-in-law is lucky not to have died of anger. I've never seen a woman who would betray her son and grandson so much. I thought your mother was just unreasonable, but I didn't expect her to disregard her son's reputation and only care about her own happiness. Grandmother Cao didn't say anything, she just told her granddaughter to be more filial to her in-laws' grandmother and to learn from her if she didn't understand. But your mother got furious."

He Wenyan knew why her mother was angry. She felt that others were mocking her for working hard to subsidize her mother's family.

He took a few deep breaths and stood firm. "I'm going to Cao's house."

Mrs. He said, "I asked your daughter-in-law to prepare some gifts. You two should go together."

It is impossible for Mo Chenxi to let He Wenyan go alone. If she doesn't go, doesn't it mean that she also looks down on the Cao family?

The couple went to Cao's house and saw Shanluo kneeling in front of Old Lady Cao's house.

Mo Chenxi felt a little distressed, as this matter had nothing to do with her son.

However, he should kneel down, because it was his wife, and she was pregnant. Otherwise, she would end up like his father, constantly telling his wife how difficult it was for her to be filial to her.

After entering the room, Manager Cao glared at He Wenyan as soon as he saw him.

Old Madam Cao came out with red eyes, "Go to the study. Fight and quarrel as much as you want, but don't disturb Yue'e."

She said to He Wenyan, "I'll just say one thing: my Cao family didn't cheat on my granddaughter. My granddaughter is the eldest daughter who lost her mother. If you don't agree now, let's go to the government office and break up!"

He Wenyan bowed and apologized, "I'm sorry, my mother was confused and said something nonsense, I apologize to my aunt on my mother's behalf."

Cao pushed him and said, "Stop arguing here, go outside and talk."

He was tall and strong, and almost pushed He Wenyan to stagger.

Mo Chenxi stayed behind, supporting Old Lady Cao and asking, "How is Yue'e?"

Old Mrs. Cao said, "It's okay, but you have to lie down, just in case..."

She cried softly, "This is my first child. I was reckless. I knew your mother-in-law was... I should have endured it and not harmed my Yue'e for a foolish person."

At this time, Cao Yue'e's stepmother brought in tea. Mo Chenxi stood up, took it and handed it to Mrs. Cao.

"It's my He family who has let you down. Please drink some tea and don't hurt yourself anymore. Yue'e still depends on you."

Mrs. Zhao gave Mo Chenxi another cup of tea, and Mo Chenxi took it and thanked her.

They were relatives, but because Cao Yue'e was not Mrs. Zhao's biological daughter, their relationship was not very close.

Mrs. Zhao said to her mother-in-law, "Mother, I'll go look after Yue'e. You can take a rest too."

Mo Chenxi helped Old Mrs. Cao to her feet, and a mother came over and helped her into a room next door.

Mo Chenxi followed in.

Old Mrs. Cao came into the house and half-lay down. After all, she was old. After all this work, she was tired after carrying her granddaughter home.

Yue'e came back without saying a word, with a blank look in her eyes. She was frightened and regretted her recklessness even more.

After her granddaughter fell asleep, she felt as if she had just had a fight and her whole body was sore.
