The scumbag ran away from marriage, I remarried on the spot

Changxing Hou Mansion.

Meng Jinyao was drunk last night, so she didn't get up until three o'clock in the morning today. She was still a little confused when she woke up, and it took a while to fully wake up.

She sat up and found that the sun was shining brightly outside and it was almost noon. She was surprised that she could sleep so well and only woke up at this hour.

Soon, Meng Jinyao remembered that she seemed to be drunk last night.

Then, the memory of being drunk last night came to mind.

She covered her face with her hands and felt thunder rolling from the sky. She didn't expect that she would act so arrogantly after being drunk, and even forcefully act like a gangster on her husband.

Meng Jinyao took a deep breath to steady her mind. She just pretended that she couldn't remember anything after she was drunk. She didn't think of anything now. Then she reached out to pull the bell and called the maid to come in to wait on her.

When Qingqiu was dressing up Meng Jinyao, she suddenly mentioned: "Madam, the second young lady and the second uncle are back today."

Meng Jinyao was confused: "Why did the second girl come back suddenly?"

Qingqiu replied: "The second young master is a Jinshi, the second young lady and the second uncle are here to congratulate him, and since something like this has happened to the eldest girl, she probably also wants to see the eldest daughter."

After hearing this, Meng Jinyao suddenly realized: "I see, look at my brain, I can't even turn around."

Qingqiu smiled and said: "Madam, you were drunk last night, and you are probably still a little confused now." As she said this, she remembered another thing, and then said, "Madam, the college examination is about to start. The third young master and uncle The second young master of the mansion will probably be back in a few days."

The third son refers to Gu Xiuwen. Gu Xiuming is famous in the clan, so Gu Xiuwen is ranked one higher. The second son of the uncle's house is Meng Chengzhang of the Yongchang house.

Meng Jinyao nodded: "It should be these days."

Qingqiu asked: "Madam, would you like to go back to Meng's house then?"

Meng Jinyao shook her head slightly: "No need, the Dong family is not the Sun family. She has no enmity with her second brother and will not harm Chengzhang. Moreover, she has no biological children under her knees. The children born to the Sun family are also very fond of her. Criticism. Mrs. Dong is a smart person. I believe she hopes that her second brother will be more promising than Meng Chengxing, and then she will stand by her second brother to find a backer for herself in the future. She will have children who will be filial to her when she gets old."

Qingqiu was slightly stunned, then said: "I am too worried."

after lunch.

Meng Jinyao felt a little bored and was thinking of finding something to do to pass the time. As soon as she stood up, she saw Ningdong entering the room with a letter.

Her eyes fell on the envelope and asked curiously: "Ningdong, whose letter is this?"

Ningdong quickly stepped forward, presented the letter with both hands, and replied: "Madam, this is a letter from my cousin, and it is for you."

Cousin?

Isn't that her cousin?

Meng Jinyao was stunned. For a moment, she couldn't remember any of her cousins ​​who would actually write to her. Before Sun was divorced, the nephews of Sun's natal family were her cousins ​​according to their seniority, but she and them The relationship is not good, could it be that he is the Yongan cousin of the Luo family?

Ningdong saw her doubts and said, "Madam, you are the son of the Du family."

Meng Jinyao was stunned again after hearing this. The cousin of the Du family is Cousin Size. Cousin Size is her distant cousin. Mrs. Du needs to be called aunt because Mrs. Du is her mother's cousin. .

The Du family and the Meng family had no friendship. If her mother was still alive, they would still have contact with each other, but since her mother died young, the contact was basically cut off.

At first, when her aunt was still alive, she would occasionally take time to bring Cousin Size to the Meng family to visit her. When she was six years old, her aunt died of postpartum hemorrhage. The child, a daughter, also died young.

Not long after her aunt passed away, her uncle was also ordered to serve as an official and took cousin Size to other places. However, her uncle was a rare and affectionate lover. After her aunt's death, she did not marry and raised cousin Size alone.

A few years ago, Mrs. Du fell ill and her uncle was an official in other places and could not return to the capital. Cousin Size returned to the capital to fulfill his filial piety and study in the capital, so the cousins ​​met.

The year before last, Mrs. Du had recovered and her body was well. Then at the beginning of last year, cousin Size went on a study tour.

Meng Jinyao took the letter, opened the envelope, took out the letter paper, opened the letter and read the contents. The letter contained a simple greeting. Since she was worried about her, she asked her if it would be convenient to meet her the day after tomorrow.

Ningdong asked curiously: "Madam, what did my cousin write in the letter?"

Meng Jinyao said: "I didn't write anything. I just asked if I would meet in person the day after tomorrow. The agreed place is Charanju."

Ningdong was stunned, then asked again: "Madam, what do you mean?"

Meng Jinyao pondered for a moment and said warmly: "My cousins ​​have not seen each other for more than a year. Now that my cousin has returned from his study tour, it is okay to meet him once. But I am a married woman. Even if he is my cousin, I still have to ask him if I want to see him." Let me know what the Marquis means."

Ningdong nodded: "Then you really need to let the Marquis know."

In the afternoon, around midnight, Gu Jingxi returned home.

Meng Jinyao handed Gu Jingxi the letter written by her cousin from the Du family. After he read the contents of the letter, she looked at him eagerly with questioning meaning in her eyes.

Gu Jingxi put down the letter, and as soon as he raised his eyes, he met his young wife's eyes. He smiled and said, "Ayao, just go and see her, but I don't have time to accompany you to see your cousin the day after tomorrow. Wait for me to take a rest some other time." If you have time, please invite your cousin to my house as a guest, and I will entertain you well."

Meng Jinyao was surprised: "Husband, you don't mind?"

Hearing this, Gu Jingxi shook his head and laughed: "What do I mind? I believe you, and if you can show me the letter and ask me what I mean, it proves that you and your cousin are innocent. My cousin cares about you and wants to see you. , by the way, it’s normal to ask you what happened over the past year.”

Meng Jinyao said: "Then I will reply to my cousin tomorrow."

Gu Jingxi nodded lightly and asked, "This cousin should have a good relationship with you, right?"

Meng Jinyao answered truthfully: "It's not bad. My cousin had a biological sister, but she died young, so he treated me as his biological sister. When he was young, he thought girls' families were very fragile, and he was afraid that I would be as young as my cousin. Yao, you don’t dare to speak loudly to me, for fear of scaring me away.”

Gu Jingxi nodded lightly and asked a few more questions. He had a preliminary understanding of this cousin, so he did not ask any more questions and said warmly: "Ayao, it's still early and it's not dinner time yet. Let's go for a walk in the garden."

Meng Jinyao responded, pulled him into the inner room, personally changed him out of his official robe into casual clothes, and then walked together in the garden.

The sun isn't too strong now, so it doesn't feel hot, and it's also suitable for walking.

When walking, Gu Jingxi would also tell her some interesting cases as if they were stories, and Meng Jinyao would also share with him the interesting things she heard.

The number of topics between them started to increase at some point. In the past, even when they sat together, they had nothing to talk about. After talking about business matters, they were speechless.
