Tie Kui Fanwai (132)

As soon as Meng Ranxi got home, she heard that Ru Hui had returned,

Although she was very happy, Meng Ranxi still asked, "Ah Hui, didn't you say that you will accompany daddy until the end of May before returning? Or is daddy coming back too?"

Ru Hui said with a smile: "Father will not come back in a month. He drove me back because he was worried that you would be alone at home."

Meng Ranxi laughed and said, "It's so miserable." Now it's no different than before, and now the social circle is wider. Ruhui and the child were not at home, and he went out drinking with his colleagues more often than usual during this time. However, when he didn't go out to socialize, he read at home.

Ruhui scolded with a smile when she heard the words: "I think you wish I wasn't here! No one is in control, so you can be free and unrestrained."

Meng Ranxi hurriedly said, "You can't wrong me. You know the places where I usually drink."

"Won't you give me a try in some unscrupulous place?" If you go to those unscrupulous places, you might bring a woman back with you.

Meng Ranxi smiled and said, "Don't worry, I don't even know where to open those places!"

The corner of Ruhui's mouth couldn't help but rise. Except for Meng Ranxi's peers in the Meng family, all the unmarried ones took concubines. Many people said that Meng Ranxi was afraid of taking concubines because of her guilt. But in fact, it was Meng Ranxi who didn't think so. No matter how powerful a woman is, she can't guard against this man's intentions.

Mai Sui said outside: "Third Master, Third Mistress, the food is ready, will it be served now?"

After dinner, the husband and wife accompanied their three children. After coaxing the three children to sleep, the husband and wife went to bed.

After being gentle, Ruhui lay in Meng Ranxi's arms and said, "Father is going to marry my eldest brother as a second wife, but she can't trust her mother, and it happens that younger siblings want to raise babies. So, he handed over the hard work to me."

Meng Ranxi frowned and said, "Ah Hui, you shouldn't intervene in this kind of matter, just refuse it!" He would never say anything else if he and his wife needed help with other matters. But this kind of thing is thankless.

"I want to refuse too, but I can't bear to see my father suffering." After speaking, Ruhui smiled bitterly and said, "Now the three of us are living well, and the eldest brother has become a problem for my father. If this matter is not resolved sooner, Dad will never let it go. But don’t worry, I’ve already told Dad, I’m just helping to find out in secret. If you find a suitable candidate, tell him and let him make a decision.”

After being a husband and wife for so long, how could Meng Ranxi not know that Ruhui has a knife mouth and a bean curd heart.

think about it,

Meng Ranxi said: "If you want to choose someone in secret, they will definitely think it's your idea if people find out about it. Since Dad wants to marry my brother-in-law as a second wife, everyone will know about it sooner or later. It's not as good as it was at the beginning. Just release the news, and someone will come to tell you about it." The news can be released, and the scope can also be expanded.

Ruhui felt that what Meng Ranxi said was reasonable: "Okay, I'll go home tomorrow and talk to my mother and younger siblings about this."

Fang Hui wanted to marry the second wife, and Ning Hai also agreed, Xiao and Zeng Chenfu naturally had no objection.

Knowing that her husband had entrusted this matter to Ruhui, Xiao said, "Isn't this nonsense? What does it look like for you, a married aunt, to meddle in the affairs of your natal elder brother's house and spread the word?" Those who didn't know, thought that Ru Huilian's natal family Big brother has to take care of the housework. The older the husband is, the more confused he becomes.

Ru Hui said bluntly: "Father can't help it either. Father can't trust Mother's vision, and siblings have to raise babies."

In fact, even if Zeng Chenfu didn't have a baby, she wouldn't interfere in this matter. Mrs. Ma and her are sisters-in-law, and their lips are dead and their teeth are cold. In the future, what will she do if her father-in-law is not satisfied with her and wants to marry her husband a second wife? Of course, she can't stop Ning Hai and Fang Hui's decision, but she will definitely not care about it.

Xiao was so angry that he didn't want to reason with Ruhui.

At night, Xiao Shi complained to Ning Zhan: "Your father is really serious, how can you let Ruhui do this kind of thing."

Ning Zhan nodded and said, "Second Sister is really not suitable to intervene in this matter. Mother, you should take care of this matter!" Only Xiao Shi is the most suitable for this matter. After all, it was reasonable for Xiao to marry Fang Hui a second wife for Ma's rebellious and unfilial things.

Xiao groaned twice and said, "Your father said that my vision is not good, and I am afraid that I will not choose a good candidate."

Ning Zhan smiled lightly, his father's worry was not unreasonable. His mother's vision of seeing people is really not very good. Fortunately, his wife was chosen by the empress dowager, otherwise he would have to choose a wife himself.

I thought so in my heart, but I couldn't say it. Ning Zhan said with a smile: "Mom, help me to see each other, and finally let Dad make the decision."

It is said that daughters are caring, but it is right for Mrs. Xiao to say that the most caring is her son. For example, Ruhui is always angry with her, and Ah Zhan is always on her side.

"Well, listen to you."

Some people will sacrifice anything to get to the top. To be able to climb the big tree of Marquis of Anyang, sacrificing a daughter is nothing to these people. Moreover, Fang Hui's personal conditions are also very good, so as soon as the news was released, the Anyang Marquis Mansion became lively.

After a while, Xiao really fell in love with two girls. These two girls are literate and handsome.

Looking good at the person, Xiao sent someone to tell Ning Hai the situation of the two girls.

Ning Hai sent someone to investigate, and found out that these two girls were all concubines. Because she is a noble concubine, it doesn't matter if she is a concubine. But one of the two girls is cowardly, and the other wants to marry into a noble family with a sharpened head.

Knowing the details of these two girls, Ning Hai said to Ah Shao with a face of joy: "Fortunately, I entrusted Ah Zhan's marriage to the queen mother." Let Xiao choose, I am afraid that this little daughter-in-law will not be better than Ma Where did it go.

In fact, Ning Hai really worried too much. It is true that Ning Zhan is filial, but he is not foolish and filial. On the contrary, he is very assertive. If Xiao's choice of girl is not to his liking, he will definitely not marry her.

A Shao said: "It's more reliable to leave this matter to the second aunt." His wife's housekeeper is indeed good, but it's really not good to judge people.

No way, Ning Hai can only write to Ruhui.

Ruhui handed the letter to Meng Ranxi, and said with a wry smile, "I just said, this matter will have to fall on me in the end."

Meng Ranxi knew that she couldn't refuse this time: "Look in secret, and if you like it, tell Dad. When the time comes, tell the public that it was your mother's match." He had just one request, and Ruhui couldn't touch her face. this matter.

Ruhui nodded.

But it is not easy to find a satisfactory candidate and the other party agrees. Until Ning Hai returned to Beijing, Ruhui didn't meet anyone who met the requirements.

Ning Que Wu Lan, Ning Hai did not urge. But he was going to let Fang Hui come back when he was selected.

Seeing that Ning Hai's requirements are so high, Mrs. Xiao persuaded: "This is to marry the second wife, not the first wife. Don't ask so high, it's almost enough."

Ning Hai said unhappily: "If mine is sensible and able to run the house, but what do you look for?" The two girls are beautiful, but they are married to concubines who can run the house, not A beautiful concubine with red sleeves.

Xiao said angrily: "It's fine if you don't like it, I don't want to bother with it!"

The couple quarreled over the matter. He didn't speak for three days.

Zeng Chenfu knew and said to Ning Zhan: "Husband, why don't I go and persuade my mother, and you go and persuade my father." The old couple quarreled, which made her feel uneasy.

However, Ning Zhan smiled and said, "If we try to persuade them, they will try their best to ignore each other. Leave them alone, and it will be fine in two days."

Zeng Chenfu couldn't believe it. Unexpectedly, after two days, Ning Hai and Xiao Shi really reconciled.

One day, Meng Ranxi came back from the Yamen and talked to Ruhui about something. The younger sister of one of his colleagues is engaged, and the man is the son of Mrs. Cheng Amber's natal second brother. Unfortunately, the other party died of illness half a year before the marriage, and the second wife of the Xiao family asked his colleague's younger sister to marry her as a widow.

Ruhui asked: "This is too much, can your colleagues and their families agree?" Watching the widows is tantamount to ruining a lifetime. If it was her, she would definitely beat the other party into a pig's head when she heard this.

Meng Ranxi said, "I don't know about this, you can send someone to find out."

"What?"

Meng Ranxi said, "Aren't you going to marry my uncle as a second wife? Go and see how this girl's temperament is? If she meets Dad's requirements, then this matter will be settled."

Ruhui hesitated: "Isn't this taking advantage of others' danger?" This kind of thing feels a little immoral.

"This is nothing to take advantage of. If their family can't withstand the Xiao family's pressure and marry the girl to Shouwangmen widow, then this girl will be ruined for life. No matter what, being a second wife is better than Shouwangmen widow." After finishing speaking , Meng Ranxi said: "But if you think it's not good, forget it, pretend I didn't say anything."

Ruhui felt that the members of the Tang family would definitely reject this unreasonable request from the Xiao family. After all, being a widow is too painful, and it's not something ordinary people can bear: "I don't want it anymore, we can find candidates slowly."

Unexpectedly, two days later, Meng Ranxi and Ruhui said: "Today Tang Xingxiu came to me and told me about his younger sister, the second daughter of the Tang family." .

Ruhui's complexion changed slightly: "Could it be that the Tang family agreed to let the second girl of the Tang family go to watch the widow?"

Meng Ranxi nodded: "Tang Xingxiu disagrees with this matter, but his father is the head of the Tang family. So he begged me, hoping that I could introduce Miss Tang Er to my mother-in-law." Tang Xingxiu was just a member of the official department. The pen post style can be said to be the lowest-level clerical official in the yamen. But this errand was only entered through the relationship of the family. He wanted to save his sister, but he didn't have the ability.

Ruhui said incredulously, "How can there be such a cruel father?"

Meng Ranxi smiled and said, "In officialdom, sacrificing a daughter for the benefit of the future is nothing." I also knew that the Xiao family must have promised something, so Master Tang agreed to the other party.

Although it is not respectable to be a second wife, at least there is hope for having children in the future. But the watchman has no husband, no children, and no hope. To live a day is to endure a day.

Ruhui sighed and said, "Okay, I'll send someone to find out!" If you meet the requirements, then look for an opportunity to meet again. If the girl is good, tell his father when the time comes.
