The little Marquis’ favorite: Madam, she is the richest in the world

Meng Xian felt like something was stuck in her throat, and she really didn't know what to say.

Meng Lin was silent for a moment and then spoke again, "I have heard everything about what happened between you and the Crown Prince."

Meng Xian:? ? ?

Which one are you referring to?

"Xianxian, I admit that you are impeccably outstanding in all aspects; but you have to know that there are many ladies from aristocratic families in the capital, all of whom are from famous families and are elegant and dignified."

Sure enough, the person who came here was ill-intentioned.

Meng Xian narrowed her eyes slightly and said calmly: "My cousin, if you have something to say, you might as well say it directly. If you beat around the bush, it will be awkward for you and me."

Meng Lin's calm face finally showed a crack at this moment, "Meng Xian, you are so calm and composed, and you are so sure of winning against those noble ladies from aristocratic families?"

The more Meng Lian listened, the more ridiculous he felt, "Why should I compare with those people?"

"Everyone has his own way of living. Is it possible that if there is someone better than you in the world, you will be so upset that you won't eat or sleep?"

Meng Lin: "Those are the women who are eyeing the Wu'an Hou Mansion and are of the same age as the prince. Are you really not worried at all?"

"The current situation in the court is in turmoil, and the dispute between Prince Ning and Prince Ning is about to break out. The prince's marriage is another way for Prince Ning to expand his power. At that time, between the world and you, what do you think the prince will choose?"

Meng Xian propped up her chin and listened carefully, and then she seemed to think about it seriously, and then said unhurriedly, "Then if that day comes, there's nothing I can do about it."

Meng Lin's eyes widened, "You...?"

Meng Xian cupped her cheeks with both hands and sighed, full of helplessness: "My cousin, do you think that if one day comes, I, a weak woman, can turn the situation around on my own?"

"To put it bluntly, I cherish the present moment between me and Jiang Heng, and I also look forward to staying with him in the future;"

"But people's hearts are fickle and things are unpredictable. If one day, for some reason, he does something sorry for me, then..."

Meng Lin's heart suddenly lifted.

"Then I have nothing to lose... It's a good story to forget each other in the world at that time."

From beginning to end, Meng Lin stared closely at every change in the expression on Meng Xian's face, trying to find evidence that she was not so calm on her face, but found nothing.

But this made her feel even weirder,

"I have a question to ask you. Even now, I ask you to tell the truth."

After Meng Lin was silent for a long time, she suddenly spoke.

Meng Xian nodded slightly. There was no need for her to lie to her in the first place.

"Did you really interact with the Crown Prince in the first place because you liked him?"

Meng Xian frowned slightly, "What do you want to say?"

The ends of Meng Lin's eyes turned red, "You can't possibly not know... about my beloved prince for many years, right?"

Meng Xian was startled when he heard this.

Did Meng Lin suspect that she was deliberately trying to steal love?

Ah--

This is getting more and more interesting.

"Frankly, I really don't know;"

"After all, my cousin and I... don't have a close relationship, let alone have any intimate conversations."

Meng Lin naturally didn't believe it, "Even if I didn't tell you, didn't my father reveal it?"

"The prince is my father's student. As long as nothing goes wrong... it will be a matter of time between me and him."

Meng Lian sneered, "So cousin, you think I stole your marriage, right?"

Meng Lin lowered her eyelids and said nothing.

Meng Lian didn't want to talk nonsense anymore, "So what do you want to do when you come to me today?"

"hehe--"

Meng Lin smiled sadly, "What else can I do now?"

"Ever since my father and mother divorced, I have nothing. People who used to surround me to please me now all avoid me and stay far away."

"Sometimes I can't figure it out no matter how hard I think about it, why on earth... did I lose to you?"

By the end, Meng Lin was no longer as domineering as she was at the beginning, but her eyes were red and tears were streaming down her face.

At first he whimpered quietly, and finally he let out a loud cry.

Meng Xian:......

I'm ready to curse, why don't you do this to me?

Finally, Meng Lin, who was crying uncontrollably, was helped back to the carriage by her wife and maid.

As soon as the person left, Chunyue and Chunxiang couldn't wait to run in.

Chunyue: "Girl, are you okay?"

Meng Xian's face was complicated, "Does it look like I was at a disadvantage just now?"

She was just a little confused,

Meng Lin couldn't come here to cry to her today, right?

Chunyue: "It seems that my cousin has been hit hard by the eldest master's resignation."

Chunxiang: "Girl, do you need to be careful about this?"

"Who should I be wary of?" Meng Xian didn't really react for a moment, "Meng Lin?"

"You two think too highly of her."

Chunxiang: "But there is also Mrs. Wang. She is not a fuel-efficient lamp."

"And he has always looked down on us."

Meng Xian really didn't want to waste energy on irrelevant people, but she also didn't want to hurt the two little girls. "That's right. Then just send a few more people to keep an eye on them and make sure nothing happens."

"Yes."

The two maids happily agreed.

-

The new year is approaching, and the emperor issued an order half a month ago to summon Prince Ning's family to return to Beijing for a reunion.

It is no secret that Prince Ning is favored, but for him to have such an honor despite repeated suppression by the princelings, people have to doubt the emperor's intentions behind it.

But no matter what others say, when Prince Ning returned to Beijing, the happiest people were none other than Concubine Zhou and the Marquis of Wu'an;

When Su received the news, she was so happy that she didn't sleep well all night. She kept thinking about where Prince Ning's carriage and horses were now and how long it would take to arrive in Beijing.

As soon as Jiang Heng learned the news, he immediately led people to respond.

It can be seen that this guy does not say anything, but in his heart he is thinking about his eldest sister and nephews.

Meng Xian couldn't help but picture the soft and waxy appearance of the little princess of Ning Wang's family who was still in her infancy.

More than a year has passed, and Xiaotuanzi has probably grown up a lot...

Realizing that her thoughts were drifting away, Meng Xian shook her head and smiled.

I secretly wonder how old I am now, could it be that I am starting to covet my children?

Eliminating distracting thoughts, she continued to read the account book;

The end of the year is the busiest time again.

But there was no time to think about anything else.

……

Every festive season, people miss their loved ones even more.

As the middle-aged atmosphere in the capital became stronger day by day, Meng Xian couldn't help but feel homesick.

She is the only one in Meng's house this year, and Jiang Heng is not in the capital.

So these days, it's really deserted at home and outside.

My eldest sister will probably spend most of this year in Yangzhou...

The second sister is responsible for guarding the house, so she should be obedient;

Big brother never has to worry about them...

But it was the matter with Lan Yi that made them anxious.

Dad and Mom...

They travel around the world like a couple of gods and goddesses, and have been to so many places that everyone can only envy;

Jiang Yanqing...

Counting the days, he left the capital to meet Prince Ning.

It's been six or seven days,

I don’t know if I received it or not.

When can I come back...
