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

Mo Chenxi saw the resentment in He Wenyan's eyes.

When she heard him say that he would not take a second wife and that he dared to defy his mother in person, she felt sorry for her in her heart that the man she married was not too bad.

When Mo Chenxi saw the resentment in He Wenyan's eyes, his face frowned again.

How could I not understand what he was thinking?

He blamed her for being aggressive and for not backing down and making things difficult for him.

He Wenyan is really similar to modern fathers because they always measure themselves and think about themselves. They never think about problems from the other person's perspective or consider the other person's interests.

I can be more tolerant of my biological parents, but my wife and children should always be put behind my biological parents.

The slight sympathy that Mo Chenxi had just felt for him disappeared in an instant. He could only say that he had not handled both sides well and that he deserved it.

She turned and walked away without saying a word.

Someone was sent to call Aunt Luo to serve He Wenyan.

The first wife has three concubines: Luo, Song, and Sun. Currently, Sun is pregnant.

The He family's house is not big, and it was inherited from their ancestors.

Old Madam Jiang lived in the front yard. The inner house had three courtyards. The children of the main house and Mo Chenxi and his wife lived in one courtyard. The two sons lived in the east wing, and the two daughters lived in the west wing.

In this way, there were three concubines, who lived in the side courtyard added at the back.

The same is true for the second and third rooms. The entire He family is almost becoming a pigeon coop.

Mo Chenxi didn’t know that Madam Jiang always talked about having many children and grandchildren, and letting them live on the roof?

She knew there might be a quarrel today, so she sent her children out early in the morning.

He Wenyan fell and was injured in her house and was placed in her room. Since no one could carry him to the study or to his aunt's house, she asked her aunt to take care of him.

She moved in with her daughter first.

Mo Chenxi asked Qiuyan to boil the medicine, as she was still recovering from illness.

He Wenliang helped his mother to the front yard. After listening to what his mother said, he had nothing to say.

He heard with his own ears yesterday that his mother would not mention the matter of taking a second wife again. He didn't expect that she would threaten his eldest brother's sister-in-law behind his eldest brother's back. His eldest brother must have fainted and injured himself because of this.

"If my daughter is bullied like this by her in-laws in the future, I will not let my in-laws off."

He Wenliang said this calmly.

If he spoke up for his sister-in-law, his mother would be even angrier and more resentful of her.

Put yourself in their shoes. Every family has daughters and granddaughters. If your daughter is oppressed by her mother-in-law, would you be willing?

He Wenliang is not like his elder brother. He has resentment towards his mother.

When my second sister got married, my mother was only concerned that her dowry was too little and would be looked down upon by her in-laws, so she complained about it every day in front of my eldest brother and sister-in-law.

He had passed the imperial examination at that time and wanted to continue his studies. His sister-in-law also hinted to him not to worry about family and to study hard.

He didn't want to make things difficult for his sister-in-law, so he said he didn't want to go to school, saying that studying was too hard and he couldn't bear it.

His mother never asked him the reason, but just scolded him for not living up to his expectations. She also asked him to live with his uncle and let his uncle guide him.

He was tempted. He thought that living and eating at his uncle's house would save money for the family. He did not expect his uncle to teach him anything and he studied hard on his own.

But his mother asked his eldest sister-in-law to prepare tuition for his uncle and give living expenses to his uncle's family every month. He originally wanted to save money for the family, but going to his uncle's house would cost more money?

So he started to wander around and act like a lazy person. When his elder brother saw that he really didn't want to study and stopped forcing him, he begged his elder brother to find him a job.

Even when it comes to getting married, he tries to delay it as much as possible.

Now that his mother is like this, she won’t listen to anything he says.

When Mrs. Jiang heard her son say this, she immediately said, "If my daughter from the He family dares to do this in her husband's family, I won't need her to say anything. I will take her back and make her kneel in the ancestral hall!"

He Wenliang said, "Okay, I'll go get my second sister first. Mother, let her kneel in the ancestral hall."

Madam Jiang was not happy. "What's wrong with your second sister? She never contradicts her mother-in-law. Even when she was wronged in her husband's family, she was still respectful to her mother-in-law! Your second sister didn't make her husband faint from anger."

He Wenliang took a deep breath. "Since mother values ​​the merchant girl my uncle found so much, and she said it's for the good of my eldest sister-in-law, why don't you give this favor to my second sister? I'll go to my second sister and tell her that mother loves her and can't bear her to work so hard, so she wants to give her a helper."

Madam Jiang cursed for a long time, then angrily said, "Why did I give birth to such an evil creature like you! Your second sister's affairs are none of your business. I'm telling you, if you dare to go to your second sister and tell her nonsense, I'll die in front of you!"

He Wenliang sneered, "It's the same good thing. If it's good for my eldest sister-in-law, it's for her own good. If she doesn't agree, she's not virtuous. Why is it that when it comes to my second sister, mother doesn't want to agree? She's afraid that I'll go to my second sister's house and tell her, and threaten me!"

Madam Jiang argued, "How can that be the same? Your eldest brother is a Jinshi, a fifth-rank official, while your brother-in-law didn't even pass the imperial examination to become a scholar. If your brother-in-law could achieve the fifth rank, even if my in-laws didn't ask, I would personally marry him a second wife."

He Wenliang shook his head and said no more. Whatever his mother said was wrong. She said that because she knew that her brother-in-law had no chance of passing the imperial examination.

He went to his eldest brother's yard and stood at the gate for a long time. He thought that this matter could also teach his eldest brother a lesson.

Mo Chenxi asked Mother Wang to go back to the Mo family and explain what happened. She mainly said that she wanted to divorce and asked if she could find a way to divorce with her four children.

The next day, Mo Yuanji and his wife came angrily.

In the past, when my daughter was wronged, she never went back to her parents' home to tell them, and they had no reason to come to their house.

If they don't show up this time, does the He family really think that the Mo family will swallow their anger for the sake of their daughter, grandson and granddaughter?

There was no old man in the He family, so Mo Yuanji and his wife went directly to their daughter's yard.

When He Wenyan saw his father-in-law and mother-in-law coming, he got out of bed and knelt down first, "It's all my fault."

Mo Yuanji avoided the question and said coldly, "How could my Mo family have such a son-in-law who is a fifth-rank official? My Mo family's daughters are not worthy enough to marry into your He family! Since you say that my daughter is unvirtuous and weak and can't bear the responsibility of being the eldest daughter-in-law of the He family, then I will take her back and your He family can choose another one with a higher status!"

He Wenyan knelt and kowtowed, "Father-in-law, I have never had such thoughts. I am grateful for your care for my He family. I know all about Jingyi's mother's hard work in the He family. We have always loved each other. My mother is easily influenced by others and only had such thoughts after listening to other people's instigation."

Old Madam Mo snorted coldly, "You're not just thinking about it, are you? You've already done it, right? You're also a Jinshi, so there's no need to play it safe in front of me. My daughter has treated you and your He family wholeheartedly, and has given birth to two sons and two daughters for you. If you don't agree with your mother taking a merchant's daughter as a second wife, you'll be accused of being unvirtuous, disobedient, and unfilial.

"What do you mean it's for my daughter's own good? My daughter is sick and she needs to rest. Who caused her illness? Who did she work so hard for that she ended up like this?

"This one is dying of illness, and before she can even recover, your He family is taking in a second wife, a merchant. Wouldn't you be ashamed if this were to get out? You've already taken advantage of your eldest daughter-in-law, and now you're looking for a merchant richer than the Mo family to provide money for your He family? How can your He family be so arrogant?"
