Chapter 476 You Leave Me, Too
Chapter 476 You Leave Me, Too
The four of them stayed in the villa for three days, and the two brothers were the first to leave. After all, Chu Qingmeng and Mu Lingxue not only soaked in the hot springs together, but also had to share a room to sleep.
"...Why do I feel that if my sister says she wants a divorce now, Lingxue will also divorce me?!" Mo Liuyuan and Mo Liujin sat in the hexagonal pavilion and watched the two people laughing and playing in the courtyard, as well as Chunhe and others who were accompanying them.
"..." Mo Liujin frowned, he also had this feeling vaguely, "Why not... go back home?"
"Well, let's keep them away from each other." He was easily implicated by Mo Liujin. Mo Liuyuan glanced at Mo Liujin with disdain, "Look, you, can't you just go along with her a little?! If you implicate me, I will definitely not let you have peace!"
"..." Mo Liujin raised his eyelids, "Are you blaming me for what happened this time?"
Mo Liuyuan remained silent. He certainly didn't blame him. He hadn't expected his mother to be so capable of causing trouble. "Oh, by the way, have you been to the farm to see your mother?"
Mo Liujin was silent for a moment before he slowly said, "No, I asked Leng Feng to send some money and things to Mother. I'll go see her when we return from the villa. Mother must have been distraught by me these days. However, if I don't let Mother know my determination this time, I'm afraid she will target Qingmeng again in the future. Qingmeng's body can't withstand such torture from her."
Mo Liuyuan nodded, "Yes, that's what I was planning, so I stopped Liu Teng. Given my sister's temper, it's a relief that she didn't divorce you. At this age, if we divorce again because of mother, not only you and me, but even father would probably become the laughing stock of everyone."
The two are now old and are no longer the young boys who relied on their father and mother. After many years of setting up their own business, their dependence on their elders has gradually disappeared. What remains is only respect and reverence, as well as the rules accumulated over the years.
They had never looked down on their mother. But they had been taught from childhood that this was the norm. In any respectable family, concubines had no right to make decisions.
The two were silent for a long while, and finally Mo Liuyuan spoke again, "After the court is over tomorrow, ask Shang Liuteng to go with you."
"Ah."
Chu Qingmeng felt much more comfortable after playing around without any worries for three days, so he gained some weight in those three days.
On the return carriage.
"Why do I feel like I've gained weight?" Chu Qingmeng pinched a suspicious piece of flesh on his waist.
"It would be better if you gained some weight. You wouldn't always be so thin." Mo Liujin took away her hand that was pinching his flesh and put his arm around her waist. "It would be better if you gained some weight."
"..." Chu Qingmeng rolled her eyes at him. If he gained any more weight, his abs would be gone.
"You are so suspicious. How much can you grow in three days?" Mu Lingxue retorted mercilessly.
"..."
After chatting and laughing all the way, they finally arrived at the gate of the mansion. Chu Qingmeng felt like he was about to be torn apart. Why didn't he feel it when he went there?
Mo Liujin helped her and her back to the main courtyard, and told the younger generations that they didn't need to come to greet him. The main reason was that Chu Qingmeng just wanted to lie down.
It was not until dinner time that Chu Qingmeng came out of the main house. When he entered the restaurant, he saw the two brothers talking about something.
"Father, mother is fine."
"Greetings, Zhufu (grandfather), Zhumu (grandmother)." Xiao Mingwei also imitated his brothers' actions and stood up to greet them.
"Alright, everyone, sit down." Chu Qingmeng took two steps forward and picked up Xiao Mingwei. "My little cutie, you can even bow after not seeing me for a few days?"
After everyone sat down, Chu Qingmeng looked at Xu and found that she no longer seemed as depressed as before.
"Qihua, is your reaction that big?" Chu Qingmeng asked.
"Mother, I've been feeling much better lately." Xu smiled. She hadn't expected her husband to dislike Dong to such an extent. From the day he took in a concubine until today, he had stayed at her place, not once visiting Luotang Courtyard. After her mother returned from a few days away a month ago, she had taken in an eighth sister for him. However, he had only visited her four or five times recently, spending most of his time with her, which made her feel much better.
"Well, that's good. This way you can feel more relaxed." Chu Qingmeng nodded and handed Mingwei to the wet nurse. "From now on, the children's food and other supplies must be supervised by someone you trust. This will prevent dirty things from hurting the children. The wet nurses' clothes, perfumes, and food must also be carefully taken care of. Qingyun, there are pregnant women in the mansion, and those around them must also be extra careful."
Listening to Chu Qingmeng's instructions, everyone was a little confused. Mo Liujin looked at Chu Qingmeng seriously and said, "Madam, when did you become so aware of the dirty tricks in the inner house?"
"...Is there a possibility that I'm lazy, not stupid?"
"Yes, Madam is smart." Mo Liujin joked.
"..." Chu Qingmeng's mind suddenly recalled the words "Master~ is smart~", and it couldn't be shaken off.
Although she returned home, Chu Qingmeng did not intend to inquire about the affairs of Mo Jiangche and Dong Mingzhu. She just played the game of covering her ears and stealing the bell. As long as she didn't come in front of her, she would not bother to pay attention to her.
Time flies quickly, and in the blink of an eye, more than a month has passed.
Ling Xian still couldn't get out of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.
Mo Jiangche still did not set foot into Luotang Courtyard.
Mo Jiangli's leg was completely healed. After the imperial physician confirmed that he was fine, he came to the general's mansion excitedly.
