Chapter 138: Daughter-in-laws and Not familiar

Meng Shing’s wife tried to persuade her family to let her husband go in the battlefield, but her words don’t sound convincing.

As someone who is also married in Guo Gongfu, Meng Laofuren’s reputation is nice. However, although her reputation is nice, she has no power in the capital. Her power is more like the same with a dog. She is a furen from a noble family but it was really nothing but a title. It was really hard for their family to get this kind of opportunity. So, she doesn’t blame Meng Shi’s wife to have this kind of thought, but … …

She cannot accept it!

Because Meng Shi’s wife wants riches and power by using her son’s life!

Meng Laofuren not only want to refuse but also want to tear apart this Da Furen (Eldest son’s wife) in front of her.

With Meng Laofuren’s scary eyes, Da Furen couldn’t help but took a step backward and ask: “Mother, did I say something wrong?”

“What? You didn’t know if what you said is wrong? Your words were not only wrong, but very very wrong!” When Meng Laofuren was still young, her words can instantly kill any conversation. But when she got old, her temper got longer. However, when her temper reaches its limit. No one will be able to bear her anger.

Da Furen got timid, but she cannot afford to lose this time. So, she strongly supports her own will: “Mother, what exactly did I say wrong? This is the heaven’s will, the heaven wants Laoye to be used by the emperor to save our country. Isn’t that such a happy thing?”

“You don’t need to make it sounds so nice. This old lady knows very clearly what exactly you are thinking.” Despite the presence of others, Meng Laofuren didn’t hesitate to add: “It seems marrying into Guo Gongfu is not satisfactory to you. If that is the case, then you can go back now to your family. This old lady doesn’t need a daughter-in-law like you.”

The meaning of those words has no any difference to the word ‘divorce”. But, Meng Shi only acted like he didn’t hear anything. He didn’t say a word to defend his wife. He didn’t even look at her.

Da Furen can no longer hold it, so she kneels on the ground and asks for forgiveness: “Mother, this daughter-in-law, this daughter-in-law is wrong. This daughter-in-law no longer dare to speak.”

“You’re wrong? What did you do wrong?” Meng Laofuren sneer and ask. Her grayish eyes even emitted a sharp light. Da Furen didn’t dare to look at her in eyes, she only opens her mouth and randomly replied: “This daughter-in-law would never dare to butt in our family business. This daughter-in-law would never dare to speak again. Mother, please, spare this daughter-in-law once.” Da Furen said while her tears are flowing. Her face looks so pitiful, but… …

Er Furen (2nd Son’s wife) and San Furen (3rd Son’s wife) didn’t even plead for her. They only bow down their heads.

Da Furen’s face looks really ugly. And if an outsider would suddenly see her, Guo Gongfu will definitely lose its face. Meng Shi could no longer afford to see her face, so he went forward to persuade his mother: “Mother, this woman is short-sighted and inexperience. So, please, don’t put her on the same level as you.”

His sons still need him, so divorce is not a good option.

“Mother, this daughter-in-law was wrong. Mother, please, I beg you to forgive this daughter-in-law.” Da Furen doesn’t care about her image, so she keeps begging for mercy.

At this point in time, it can be said that Da Furen is really fortunate. Because if her husband and sons are not here. How will she face this issue?

Meng Laofuren doesn’t really want them to divorce. But, if she won’t beat her this way. This Da Furen will beat her. Seeing that Da Furen was really regretting her action, Meng Laofuren coldly said: “Get up.”

This time, Er Furen and San Furen dare to move to help Da Furen.

Da Furen hurriedly stood up and said: “Thank you, thank you, Mother.”

Meng Laofuren ignored Da Furen, then said: “Second and Third daughter-in-law, help your sister-in-law to get out. After this, don’t get yourself involve to other family’s business. If I see you idling with other family’s lives and doesn’t put your mind to the right path. I’ll make you all very busy.”

Most of them didn’t get what Meng Laofuren had said. But, San Furen understands it. This old lady beat her up with questions before because she was very dissatisfied with her attitude towards Lin Chujiu. And if they are not familiar with her attitude, surely, there will be very few women in this family.

The three ladies felt bitter inside their heart. But because they fear this old lady, they no longer said anything and just left.

After sending away her noisy daughter-in-laws, Meng Laofuren continues to discuss the imperial decree: “Eldest son, although you don’t pay much attention to political affairs, but you know how strong the Northern Country’s soldiers, right? In just five days, those Northern Country’s soldiers claimed our border and three cities. Do you have the confidence to block their attacks?”

“This son… … doesn’t!” It really takes a lot of courage to admit one’s incompetence.

But, mother knows best. So, Meng Laofuren sighed and said: “Eldest son, admitting that you don’t have the capability is not shameful. Look outside and try to see if anyone is willing. I’m sure, not more than three people will say that he can do it.”

Although it was very subtle, Meng Laofuren’s words are really comforting. Or at least, when Meng Shi heard these words, his heart felt comfortable. And people can now see the smile on his face.

“Er Ye, San Ye, you also have to understand this. Mother is not doing this block your future. But, to make things right.” Meng Laofuren knew that she won’t live much longer. Guo Gongfu will be soon be managed by these brothers. So, she took this opportunity to educate her sons.

Meng Erye and Meng Sanye who’s putting a proud and relax eyes become sad: “Mother, then why did the emperor choose Eldest brother to be the general?” People with clear eyes can see that their big brother doesn’t have the ability. So, why?

Meng Laofuren thinks for a moment, and then said: “If my guess is not wrong, then I’m afraid that, it’s has something to do with Xiao Wangye.”

“Xiao Wangye?” The three Meng brothers got puzzled, so they ask: “What is the connection of this with Xiao Wangye? Chujiu married Xiao Wangye, but we are not familiar with him.”

In order to avoid and arouse suspicion, the three of them didn’t show their face to Lin Chujiu and Xiao Wangye’s wedding day. They also didn’t even greet Xiao Wangye after that.

“We are not familiar with each other, but we are in-laws.” Regarding this matter, Meng Laofuren is not only dissatisfied with her three daughter-in-laws, but also with her three sons. However… …

They will be Lin Chujiu’s aid, so even though Meng Laofuren is unhappy. She will not mention that matter to avoid grudges.

Meng Shi got panicked, so he hastily asked: “Mother, is that true? The emperor see us this time because of that connection to Xiao Wangye? Does that mean he wants to eradicate our family?”

“Huh? Really?” Meng Erye and Meng Sanye got scared:”But, we’re not the one who decided that marriage. So, why we got involved?”

That inference is reasonable, but… …

These three are too blind to see why the emperor gives it a shot to use their family.

“Do you want to go to the battlefield? You don’t have any military knowledge. The emperor will not go to our house and cut off our head if you lose, right?” If the emperor killed them, then it’s very unfair, right?

“Since the emperor doesn’t see me capable, then what does he mean?” Meng Shi doesn’t believe that the emperor see him capable.

Meng Laofuren doesn’t also want to believe her speculation, but: “Those soldiers that you will manage is Xiao Wang’s soldiers.”

“Huh? … …” Meng Shi’s face become dull and mockingly said: “Does the emperor think Xiao Wangye’s soldiers will listen to my orders?

The Emperor thinks too high of him, but he and Xiao Wangye are really unfamiliar to each other… …
