Chapter 253: Dealing with the Sun Family >
héng on the street. "Madam, I noticed earlier that you seemed disinterested in Li Guanxi, and I thought you were going to abandon him as a pawn."Meng Jinyao shook her head slightly. She had spent time...Meng Jinyu saw that it was about time, and didn't want to watch them continue to bicker. She softly asked, "Grandmother, Father, now that Mrs. Sun has admitted her crimes, how do you plan to deal with her"
Mrs. Meng looked at Meng Jinyu, her brows furrowed even tighter. This granddaughter had been rebellious since she was young, and now with Changxing Hou's support, and the fact that the Sun family had confessed their guilt, if the outcome of the punishment didn't satisfy this troublemaker, who knows how much havoc she would wreak It was truly a headache.
As for this, Madam Meng directly asked, "What are your thoughts, Ai Yao Although you are a junior, your mother died because of her. You can offer your opinion.
"
All eyes turned to Meng Jiny Yao, even Sun Shi looked towards her. But after these days of turmoil, she was on the verge of collapse and didn't dare to look closely at the face that resembled Zhou Shi so much. She only glanced quickly before withdrawing her gaze.
Meng Jin Yu and Meng Cheng Xing, siblings, saw that Meng Jin Yao was silent. One heart also rose to the throat, afraid that Meng Jin Yao would make excessive demands that would torment their mother.
Meng Jinyao looked at Mrs. Sun, feigned deep thought for a moment, and replied: "A poisonous woman who plots to murder her predecessor and harms her offspring, how can she be worthy of being a wife of the Meng family In my opinion, Father should divorce Mrs. Sun."
As soon as these words were spoken, Meng Jinyu and Meng Chengxing's hearts skipped a beat. To ask their father to divorce their mother
Meng Dong was stunned. He hadn't considered divorcing his wife, after all, he and Sun Shi still had two children. No matter how angry he was, he had to consider the well-being of his two children. So, he immediately said: "Ai Yao, if you dislike Sun Shi, father will send her to the estate and she will never be allowed to return home."
Madam Meng originally thought her eldest granddaughter's idea was good. Now, hearing her son had blundered, she felt a surge of anger again. With such a venomous woman as Mrs. Sun, tomorrow Mrs. Sun's evil deeds would be known to everyone. If their Meng family kept this venomous woman, wouldn't it prove that she had pinned two lives on the eldest granddaughter's head, letting Mrs. Sun shift the blame onto her
Today, regardless of how we argue, we must push Mrs. Sun out to silence those people. After all, Mrs. Sun has two lives on her hands. Divorcing her is both reasonable and the best solution.
She glared at her son with displeasure, for the first time in over a decade she agreed with her granddaughter: "I think Ayao's idea is good. Someone like Sun, such a venomous woman, doesn't deserve to be a member of the Meng family."
"Grandma!"
"Grandma!"
Meng Jinyu and Meng Chengxing stared in astonishment at Old Madam Meng. They hadn't expected their grandmother to agree. What would happen now that their mother had been abandoned, and their father was going to marry another wife Wouldn't they be bullied by their stepmother
Lady Meng said in a deep voice, “Chengxing, Aoyu, you are not children anymore. You must learn to distinguish right from wrong. How could someone like Sun be worthy of being a woman of the Meng family”
Upon hearing this, Meng Jingyu and Meng Chengxing dared not speak another word. If they angered their grandmother further, they feared that even they, as siblings, would be punished together.
Lady Meng saw that her children were frightened and stopped talking. She turned to her son and said with finality, “My son is the Duke of Yongchang, so why would he have trouble finding a good wife Today, we shall divorce this poisonous woman. Write her a letter of dismissal and let her return to her own family's home in Sun. We don't want her causing further harm to our Meng family’s descendants."
Meng Dongyuan thought about it for a long time, and finally nodded: "Son, I'll write a letter of divorce to Mrs. Sun later."
Instead of being sad about the impending abandonment, Sun Shi actually let out a sigh of relief. She would continue to act as Madame Meng and spend the rest of her life on the estate. At that time, those overbearing servants wouldn't even know how to neglect her.
But things were different once she returned to her parents' home. Over the years, she had been very kind to her brother, sister-in-law, and nephew. She helped her family with anything they needed and frequently provided financial assistance. Their relationship over the years has always been good, so her brother and sister-in-law wouldn't mistreat her.
If she bothers her brother and sister-in-law at the Sun family, then she can live in one of the Sun family's estates. At least she would be free. If her children miss her, they could also visit her.
Meng Jinyáo had been keeping a close eye on Sun Shi, not missing the fleeting smile at the corner of her lips. She suddenly found it amusing. Was Sun Shi frightened out of her wits by ghosts To think she could get away with this after murdering her mother and brother! She wanted to live a good life afterwards Letting Sun Shi be cast aside was only one step in her plan.
For a moment, Meng Jinyu said to her grandmother: "Grandmother, I have something to ask of you."
Mrs. Meng's heart skipped a beat, she always felt that this wretch was relying on the backing of Hou Changxing to hide some big move. She couldn't help but feel uneasy and asked, "What's the matter"
Meng Jin yao's face darkened, and her voice dropped to a low murmur: "These past two days, I suddenly dreamt of my mother. She wept to me, saying that she wanted a son. She said that down there, without a son to burn incense and paper for her, she was ridiculed by others."
Mrs. Meng was stunned. There's such a thing But thinking of how Mrs. Sun had been tormented by ghosts like this, it must be true. Otherwise, why would so many people desperately want to have a son Although daughters are also one's flesh and blood, they are nowhere near as valuable as sons. If one doesn't have a son, they have to adopt one, just to ensure that they have a son under their name to burn incense and paper for them in the afterlife.
She looked at her two grandsons and asked, "Do you want your two younger brothers to go to your mother's grave for you"
"No, I want my mother to have a son under her name," Meng Jinyao shook her head and replied, "so that during festivals people will burn incense and paper money for her, and she herself also thinks so."
This startled Mrs. Sun, who instinctively thought that Meng Jingyao was seeking revenge on her, wanting to take her son and have him adopted under the name of that despicable Zhou woman! Wouldn't that mean her son would be born for nothing Or even worse, given to another woman
Madame Meng was stunned again and pressed, "So you want to adopt a son under your mother's name"
Meng Jinyo nodded and said, "That's right. I hope Grandmother and Father will agree to this. My mother died unjustly, and even in the afterlife she was mocked for not having a son. Seeing her being ridiculed, my heart aches. As she spoke, tears streamed down her face. "Originally, I came today to celebrate Grandmother's birthday and also intended to tell you about this, but I didn't expect so many things to happen."
Mrs. Meng remained silent. In fact, this matter wasn't difficult at all. If Zhou were given a son and allowed to leave the Meng family with her vengeful spirit, it wouldn't be a bad thing.
Meng Dongyuan, just like Meng Lao's wife, was thinking about it. He felt guilty towards Zhou Shi. Now he was hoping to compensate Zhou Shi with a child so that she would be content and then leave the Meng family. Otherwise, what could he do if she kept clinging to him in the future
"It's easy, but of your three brothers, there are only two left. Which one do you want to be registered under your mother's name"
Lady Meng also had no objections and replied, "Then let Ah Yao choose. In fact, she secretly hoped that her eldest granddaughter would be chosen to inherit the family line. Cheng Xing is the prince's son, and having a poisonous woman like Sun Shi as his mother is a stain. If he is registered under Zhou Shi's name, he will be Zhou Shi's son in the future, free from the stain of Sun Shi."
Sun shi heard this, her heart instantly jumped to her throat. She thought to herself: Could it be that she really has to give her son to Zhou shi
Meng Jiny Yao saw that Sun Shi's face was tense, she subtly curled the corner of her mouth, her gaze fell on her two younger brothers. Meng Chenxing had a gloomy face and didn't give her a good look, while her second brother, Chengzhang, had red eyes and eyelashes still wet, clearly having cried. In fact, she also saw that her second brother occasionally lifted his sleeve to wipe his eyes.
She softly replied, "Grandmother, father, the mother of my third younger brother is still here. I choose my second younger brother."
Meng Dong didn't have any objections, and he didn't dare to have any. He now wished he could immediately compensate the Zhou family, make them satisfied, and hurry back to the underworld so they wouldn't stay at Meng's house causing trouble anymore. He nodded quickly and said, "Okay, I'll do as you say."
Lady Meng felt a tinge of disappointment. She thought about advising her eldest granddaughter to choose another heir, but the granddaughter's gaze never left Chengzhang, clearly indicating her decision was final.
While Sun first let out a sigh of relief, the next moment she felt something was amiss. Registering Meng Chengzhang under Zhou's name meant that Meng Chengzhang would become her legitimate son instead of a concubine's child, and his status would be equal to hers and Xing's
Is it true that Zhou had a dream, or is Meng Jin Yao, this little bitch, trying to play some kind of trickve to give him some sweetness, otherwise, if he doesn't see hope, he will retreat."Meng Jinyao nodded in strong agreement. This is probably like going to war, all your efforts at the beginning are con...
