The daughter of the first wife grew up in the countryside and was extremely powerful

At this time, the people in the Marquis' Mansion did not know what was happening outside. Meng Hewan was still in the flower hall chatting and drinking tea with her grandmother and Gu.

It was a rare occasion that Meng Qiaoming also came out of the yard today, but he just sat quietly drinking tea and listening to his grandmother, mother and sister chatting without interrupting.

Meng Hewan felt a little disgusted with Meng Qiaoming. His father asked him to frame Gu Xunzhou, but he messed up such a simple thing.

It also made me smell fishy.

Her reputation has been damaged as a result, and she has done more harm than good.

However, she showed gentleness and understanding on her face, and patiently persuaded him, which made Meng Qiaoming even more devoted to her.

"Wan'er, Wan'er? What are you thinking about, kid?"

Old Madam Meng lovingly called out to Meng Hewan several times before she came back to her senses.

Gu also looked at her daughter in confusion.

Meng Hewan came back to her senses and put on a gentle face, "Ah, Grandma, what did you call me for? I just saw that my brother was a little unhappy, so I was a little worried and my mind wandered."

When Mrs. Gu heard this, she nodded with great satisfaction, thinking that her daughter was really considerate and sensible.

Madam Meng nodded in satisfaction and repeated her previous question: "I say, what exactly is going on with the Third Prince? I think he is very sincere. If there is any misunderstanding, he should explain it properly."

But breaking off the engagement is definitely impossible.

Meng Hewan frowned slightly when she heard this, but it went unnoticed: "Wan'er knows, grandma, don't worry."

Madam Meng nodded with satisfaction.

The Marquis' Mansion has been in decline in recent years. If Wan'er could marry a prince, it would at least be of some help to her son and grandson.

Meng Qiaoming, who was sitting opposite Meng Hewan, carefully noticed the change on Meng Hewan's face and began to have some guesses in his mind.

Could it be that... Wan'er doesn't want to marry Pei Qing'an?

This thought made Meng Qiaoming feel happy. The irritability that had been accumulating in his heart for several days was swept away in an instant, and he looked at Meng Hewan more gently.

At this moment, a servant hurriedly rushed in from the door, looking at Meng Hewan who was sitting next to the old lady from time to time: "Old... Old lady, Mrs.... Madam..."

Seeing the servant looking at Meng Hewan, Meng Qiaoming, who was closest to him, felt a surge of anger rising up again. He stood up, kicked the rude servant, and shouted angrily:

"You rude dog, you're asking for a beating."

The three women were startled by Meng Qiaoming's kick, but they just frowned and did not speak to stop him.

As a servant, you should be punished for being so rude.

"Master...Master, please spare me. Master, please spare me. This servant...this servant was just anxious for a moment. At the door...at the door..."

The servant's ribs were hurt by the kick, but he didn't dare to cry out in pain. He quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed for mercy. After a while, blood was seen on his forehead.

"Okay, tell me first, what happened at the door? Why are you so flustered?"

Mrs. Meng saw some bloodstains on the clean floor and waved her hand in disgust.

"Yes... yes... there is a middle-aged man and woman standing at the gate of our mansion, shouting... shouting..."

The servant trembled, and was speechless when he saw the young master defending the young lady in such a way.

"What are you shouting about? Just answer the questions you are asked."

Meng Qiaoming roared impatiently.

Meng Hewan, who had been silent the whole time, felt a little uneasy. This young man looked at her as soon as he came in... Could it be related to her?

"Yes... yes." The servant was frightened even more and dared not hide it anymore: "They said it was the young lady's biological parents... coming to take her back..."

Meng Hewan stood up with a look of disbelief on her face, her body swaying a few times.

This...is impossible. Didn't she already send people to take care of them?

Why does it still appear?

Since even Gu Fanchu didn't return to the Marquis' Mansion, her identity could be kept secret, and no one would know that she was not the real daughter of the Marquis' Mansion.

How could...

How could they escape?

"Nonsense, what are they doing? Go and take them away."

Meng Qiaoming was so angry that he was about to go out. He wanted to see who dared to talk nonsense in front of the Marquis' Mansion.

The old lady slammed the table in anger, feeling that things had been going wrong in the Marquisate recently. "Gu, why don't you go and get rid of them? Don't let them ruin Wan'er's reputation."

How can I get married if my reputation is ruined?

Gu responded quickly and followed him out. Meng Hewan naturally wanted to see it with her own eyes, but she couldn't appear in front of everyone, so she just listened to the noise outside from inside the door.

At this time, the couple was already sitting at the door, crying and making a fuss: "Please give me back my daughter. My wife carried her for ten months and gave birth to her. Please have pity on us because we have no children. Please give her back to us!"

As soon as Meng Qiaoming and Gu came out, they saw this ridiculous scene.

The housekeeper stood at the door, wiping the sweat from his forehead, and the area was already surrounded by people who came to watch the show.

The couple kept calling out.

Meng Qiaoming shouted, "Nonsense! We don't have your daughter in our mansion. Hurry up and leave! If you don't leave, I'll have the government arrest you."

Of course, he was just trying to scare the two of them. If the government really arrested someone, Wan'er's reputation would probably be ruined.

When the butler saw the lady and the young master come out, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and stepped aside.

It really cost him his life!

"Madam, Master, that year the midwife suddenly brought people to take my child away and sent him to your mansion. The midwife said it all."

The lame man cried heartbreakingly, and everyone around him couldn't help but feel a little sympathy for him.

Gu's face turned pale. These two people might really be Wan'er's biological parents, but... but how could she bear to let Wan'er return to such a terrible family?

"Come here, drive them away."

Meng Qiaoming saw that the situation was getting out of control and could not let them stay any longer.

"My lord, please have mercy on me. I know my daughter is living a pampered life in your house, but we just want our own flesh and blood back!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the onlookers had their own guesses.

It was a girl who was not replaced back then and is still living a pampered life. Then there is only one in this marquis's mansion.

There are three families in the Marquis' Mansion, and the current old lady is the second wife of the old Marquis.

However, the eldest wife in the mansion did not inherit the old marquis's title, simply because she was born to the original wife, and the second wife was a concubine. The fact that the old marquis favored the concubine and neglected his wife caused a sensation in the city.

So after the original wife died and the concubine took over, the first wife moved out and there was no contact for many years.

Meng Churong from the first wife also worked hard and passed the exam without relying on the connections of the Marquis' Mansion. He is now a General of the Central Army with the fifth rank.

The second and third wives were born to the current Madam Meng.
