- C231 Dark Reflection on Mingwei's Follower (Part I)
Once the Golden Ranking was released, the Fu Family could be considered to be in a state of double joy. The threshold was almost trampled flat by the guests who came to congratulate them. In the end, Fu Ninghui’s reputation had already been removed from the family tree, and Fu Hongbo only treated the Qin family as ordinary disciples.
The whole April’s Fu family was immersed in the joy of Fu Heng high school’s flower scouting, and there were no stops in inviting people from all parts of the Fu Mansion. Xu Mingwei had been following Lady Wang to socialize with the other wives all day, laughing so hard that his face was hardly his own anymore. Finally, some time passed, and Xu Mingwei ordered the Old Lai Family’s Xu Family to send a message. Although she had previously heard from the news, and knew that Xu Mingzhang’s body was unharmed, but this time, she did not manage to pass again. Xu Mingwei was worried that his mother would only report the good news to him, and thus thought that it would be best if she could see his mother.
Coincidentally, Lady Helan was free these days, so she went on to congratulate the Fu Family. Lady Wang knew that the Xu Family’s few concubines had failed the examination this time, so she was naturally very pleased with herself. In front of Lady Helan, she even praised her son a few more times. With great difficulty, she waited for Lady Wang to show off enough before she turned back to Xu Mingwei’s courtyard.
When the mother and daughter met, Xu Mingwei gave a narrow smile, “You’re finally here. I thought you and my mother-in-law were going to stay there until nightfall.”
Lady Helan used the handle of his fan to pat her on the head and said, “Still laughing. “If it wasn’t for you, Mother wouldn’t have needed to listen to it. Her ears were about to grow calluses.”
Xu Mingwei quickly returned the favor, and smilingly hugged Lady Helan’s arm as she entered the room. After Wan Rong served some tea, she taught the Old Lai Family a glance before she left, leaving the Lady Helan and Xu Mingwei alone to talk to each other.
“Mom, is Second Brother feeling better at home these few days?” Even though I have read the message I sent you last time, I still feel uneasy. I have to hear it from your own mouth. ”
The Lady Helan chuckled, “Your second brother’s body is strong enough to fight a tiger, what else can’t he endure. This time, he was sick in the Academic Institution, but it was because he was sick. He also knows that the reason why he failed the exam this time around is not because of his lack of solid knowledge.
Xu Mingwei was relieved, she pursed her lips and laughed: “Second brother is so anxious to marry my sister-in-law, I can’t let you go this time, I’m afraid there’s too much regret in my heart.”
Lady Helan also laughed when she heard this, and said, “You don’t have to worry about that, the King’s owner already sent a message, allowing the marriage to be arranged this year on a good day.”
Xu Mingwei nodded her head, thinking that she was destined to follow Fu Heng, and when the time came, she would be at her own side, and would not be able to personally see her second brother getting married, which made him a little lonely.
When Lady Helan came back, she had the intention of talking about her, so she changed the topic, “A few days ago, both families were busy, so it wasn’t good for me to come and talk to you. Mother originally thought that you were someone who carried her lightly, but in her heart, she was angry. I didn’t expect you to have the thought of staying in the capital for so long. It’s easy for you to set up a rule in front of your mother-in-law, isn’t it? Right now, your mother-in-law still has a second daughter-in-law in her eyes. When she returns home in the future, who will your mother-in-law have left in front of her eyes? Since Heng Ge’er isn’t here to protect you, even if she stood in front of her wife every day, her legs would still be numb and she wouldn’t have anything to talk about! ”
Xu Mingwei taught his mother a lesson so that she didn’t say a word. As she thought about it, it was not difficult for Xu Mingwei to guess who revealed the meaning to the Xu Family.
Lady Helan had raised her personally, how could she not know that she hadn’t even heard a single word. With a pained look on his face, she stroked her hair and said softly, “Who wants you to really like him? Even though you act relaxed on the surface, you still can’t let it go, right? ”
Xu Mingwei’s face turned white, she turned his head away, “What are you trying to make such an annoying servant out of me?”
The Lady Helan sneered, her hands holding her face straight before speaking softly, “Why do you need others to make things up? If you don’t like him, why do you have to fight with him for this injustice? It’s easy for you to hide this kind of intention from others, but you can’t hide it from your mother. Back then, I was like this as well. I loved and hated him as well. As time went by, I couldn’t even explain why I liked him or why I hated him. Isn’t it fine now? ”
Seeing Xu Mingwei’s face, the Lady Helan seemed to be moved, and knew that she had heard it before, she continued, “Mother has already told you, for people like us, concubines are something like this, we have to wake up like this as the mistress. A man’s heart isn’t like ours, it doesn’t matter how many people come and go. As long as he has your one and only heart, it’s enough. Don’t think that we’re at a disadvantage as women. Our hearts aren’t something they can have just because they want to. Even now, your father still thinks that he’s the only one in your mother’s heart, and that you won’t be able to live without him. ”
When Lady Helan said till here, she herself felt it was funny. She paused for a moment and said, “Heng Ge’er was in the wrong regarding Lady Xue, I should have greeted you first before bringing him in. Fortunately, after what happened afterwards, his mind was still clear. She did not need you to do anything to get rid of the matter. Since men already know how important they are and have lived with you wholeheartedly, what else can you do to anger others? Now, they are even willing to coax you to flatter you. After this period is over, why don’t you take a look? If a man’s heart is cold, you won’t have a good life even if you’re the matriarch. Not to mention that his knees were still empty right now, if he had a son, he would ask his teacher to educate him, send him to study, and make friends with him. Who wouldn’t want him to overstep himself? “You’ve offended someone so much that you’re feeling relaxed right now. In the future, it’s your turn to suffer.”
“In the end, men have the final say in this world. No matter how arrogant you are, you still have to endure it in the future.” Lady Helan said in a flat tone, but her words were full of threat.
Xu Mingwei sighed, and said, “Mother, your daughter has already changed. From today onwards, you can rest assured.”
The Lady Helan nodded, “It is for the best that you can understand your days. Those who were in love with each other would leave in three to five years. For the sake of these hollow, to wear down the young couple’s little friendship, in the future relative to form a pair of resentful couples, that was called days of hardship. Your heart has always been heavy since a young age. You bury your words in your heart and easily dissuade others from saying them. This isn’t good either, your true happiness and sadness won’t show in front of others, Heng Ge’er isn’t a bug in your stomach, how do you know that you like this, and are disgusted with that? The couple had to have a deal to live their lives, and if it was urgent, they had to speak openly. You must know that after enduring injuries for a long time, your end is half dead from anger. However, looking at those harmonious families, those who were in charge must be people that people in the circle liked. Why was that so? As a person who knows how to socialize well, he knows what to say to people and what to bury in his heart. ”
It was just that she had developed a sense of inferiority since she was young. Even if she was able to live a carefree life in this life, she still wouldn’t be able to escape from the depths of her bones, and would never let her heart be seen clearly.
Wasn’t it the same when I was reading with Fu Ninghui and the others in the palace? She herself was very clear that Fu Ninghui had suddenly started to distance herself from her. Even though she was a little puzzled and worried, and had never really thought of asking Fu Ninghui about the reason in person, the two of them passed each other off like this. In her heart, this friendship wasn’t worth her searching for and saving. Although Fu Ninghui was the main culprit in their relationship, how could she not be related in any way?
In the past two lifetimes, she had led a passive life of this kind, with the title “Virtuous as water, Water is good for everything but struggle”. He had obviously been on good terms with someone before, but his words were different now. He never said it out loud. He just secretly made notes in his heart, and over and over again, and over again, and there was no next time.
Xu Mingwei could not help but reflect on it. If she had told Fu Heng that she was not allowed to take in concubines from the beginning, what would have happened? But after thinking about it carefully, it was to the extent that it was even worse than today — It was not that she loathed Fu Heng, but Fu Heng loathed her. In the end, there was going to be a fight between the two of them, a round of admittance. In order to establish his authority as the man’s master, his backyard was probably even more lively than it was now.
Lady Helan saw her gloomy face, and was afraid that she would be too greedy and overkill herself, so she hurriedly said to her, “Mother only thought of reminding you for a moment, so you don’t have to take everything for yourself. As the saying goes, a slap on the face doesn’t work. Think about yourself and the others when you meet them in the future. Just don’t be impatient and lose your temper. It was still like the old saying, ‘A couple must have a deal when they’re living their days’. Don’t keep everything of yourself in your heart, you have to remember it well. Before long, Heng Ge’er’s movements would be set. Mother didn’t have many days to see you, so she came to take a look. Even if you didn’t like the Old Lai family anymore, you still had to keep her in mind for Mother’s sake. One must know that an elder like her has a treasure. For someone as old as her who is able to follow you around, you can put your heart at ease if you leave her by your side. ”
Although Xu Mingwei hated the Old Lai Family for divulging such information behind her back, when she heard Lady Helan speak of this, she could only promise, “Mother, don’t worry. I can trust the Lai Family’s aunt and daughter.
“She only has one man and two sons. When the time comes, I’ll go with you guys. Wan Rong’s father, as well as the mute Hu Bo, will be there for you. There are many uses for them, and there are also benefits from being loyal. “It is not because of the Shangguan family that we are unfamiliar with them. Rather, we are afraid that the hoodlums will bully the students.”
