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

Rumors spread that Mei Qingyun was abandoned by her husband and returned to the capital.

A lady that Mei Qingyun knew in the past invited her to a banquet. They were still young at that time, but now they are about thirty years old. Those ladies are now other people's wives, and Mei Qingyun returned to being Mei Qingyun from someone else's daughter-in-law. Home girl.

Without her identity as the daughter-in-law of the Wei family, she is just a girl from the Mei family. At the age of twenty-nine, it is ironic to be called Miss Mei by others. After all, others at this age are about to become grandmothers.

Mei Qingyun naturally knew that those people wanted to laugh at her, but she still went to the banquet.

Today was the chrysanthemum appreciation banquet hosted by Mrs. Jingan Hou. It was also her first appearance since returning to Beijing. She dressed up and went out.

Her pride doesn't allow her to be a coward. Doesn't it mean she doesn't dare to go out? Then she would go out and give them a good look. After all, she couldn't hide away all her life.

After Mei Qingyun arrived, everyone's eyes fell on her invariably.

I saw her wearing a lavender dress, a white jade plum blossom hairpin on her head, and hibiscus jade inlaid pearl earrings in her ears. She walked in lotus steps, still as dignified and gentle as everyone remembered.

This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that she does not look old. At twenty-nine years old, she looks only twenty-four or five years old at most. Her skin is like cream and her face is like a flower. She is particularly dazzling among her peers. .

More than ten years have passed, and Mei Qingyun is still the most dazzling among them.

All the ladies were envious and jealous.

When Mrs. Jingan Hou saw Mei Qingyun, her smile froze. She really didn't expect that Mei Qingyun's charm was still there, and she also added the mature charm that should be expected at this age. When she smiled softly, the woman couldn't help but look at it a few more times. What if my husband sees this? The soul is probably lost again, after all, the husband's favorite concubine is somewhat similar to Mei Qingyun.

At this time, Meng Jinyao's two sisters-in-law, Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Chen, both had slightly subtle expressions on their faces. It was no problem for Mrs. Jing'an Hou to invite their three sisters-in-law, but at this juncture, inviting Mei Qingyun too was not looking for trouble. ?

Meng Jinyao was also a little surprised. If she had known that Mei Qingyun was coming, she would not have come. After all, while those people were belittling Mei Qingyun recently, they also pulled her out to talk about it. Nowadays, meeting each other is always a bit embarrassing. Today she went out to a banquet, but she was bored at home and was accompanied by her two sisters-in-law, so she came here.

Mrs. Zhang said softly: "Third brother and sister, I really didn't know she would come too, otherwise I wouldn't have persuaded you to come out to relieve your boredom."

Meng Jinyao shook her head gently: "Sister-in-law, I'm fine."

Mei Qingyun noticed the change in everyone's eyes, and her depressed mood for many days was finally relieved. She walked calmly and calmly towards Madam Marquis Jing'an. She saw this person on the street a few days ago. This person still had an old grudge with her. She slowly remembered this person after receiving the post, but she could not remember where she had offended Mrs. Jingan Hou.

She said warmly: "Sister Yao, I haven't seen you for many years. How are you?"

Mrs. Jingan Hou responded with a smile: "I'm okay. I was worried about my sister when I heard what happened to her before. Now I see that my sister doesn't seem to be bothered by that matter, and I'm relieved."

Mei Qingyun smiled for a moment, lowered her eyes, and her expression became gloomy. She soon raised her smile again, with a tone of sadness and guilt in her voice: "It's also my fault, delaying him for so many years. Fortunately, it's not too late now, he can come back again." If you find a good match, you can also have a legitimate son."

Her behavior made it difficult for Mrs. Jing'an Hou to continue sarcastically. She couldn't say that she deserved it, so she could only say: "Sister, don't think too much, you don't want to do this kind of thing."

After the words fell, Mrs. Jinganhou changed the subject: "My sister has been away from the capital for many years. I'm afraid many people don't know her. Let me introduce her to you."

After Mrs. Jing'an Hou finished speaking, she was very considerate and introduced all the ladies in each house that Mei Qingyun might not know. When Meng Jinyao arrived, she was slightly startled, and then said: "This is the house of Marquis Changxing." Madam, my surname is Meng, and her natal family is Yongchang Bofu."

Mei Qingyun smiled: "Sister Yao, I know Mrs. Gu. We met before when we were in Huzhou."

Meng Jinyao also responded with a smile: "Yes, we met several times when we were in Huzhou."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was surprised. They didn't expect that they actually knew each other. Also, Marquis Changxing took his wife back to his hometown in Huzhou before, so it was normal for them to meet him.

Originally, everyone thought that there would be a good show when Marquis Changxing's new love met his old love. However, both of them were calm and could talk with smiles. Everyone was a little disappointed because the show ended before it even started.

However, Mei Qingyun was only calm on the surface, but not calm on the inside. Once she saw Meng Jinyao, she was hit hard, as if to remind her of her past stupidity. If she had known better, she would not have broken off the engagement, thus getting the boy she liked when she was young. , even if the boy recovers from his illness many years later, she can have reason to say that she is too old to have a baby.

Every step in life is a choice. If you choose the wrong step, the trajectory of your life will change. You and Wei Heng have tortured each other for so many years, and now you are a girl from the Mei family again, surrounded by rumors.

Now that she is in such a situation, she can only marry a widower and be someone else's second wife. Otherwise, who can accept her except the widower? There is no man of her age who is of decent condition but is not yet married. And for a teenager, she is almost a mother at her age, so how can she look down on her? Even if she was fertile, he wouldn't look down on her.

The more she thought about it, the more irritated Mei Qingyun became, feeling depressed and angry at Wei Heng. Why should she be a corrupt official? The Wei family was wiped out. She suddenly felt that if Wei Heng was a good official and nothing happened to the Wei family, they could still get by and she wouldn't have to worry about her marriage even at her old age.

Everyone admired the chrysanthemums, and those who were talented and learned would compose a poem or a poem, and they would appreciate each other's poems and get along very harmoniously. However, someone stammered and asked: "Miss Mei, I heard that Mr. Zhan Shiwang, the young master of Zhan Shifu, the day before yesterday I sent a matchmaker to the door to propose marriage, but is it true?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Mei Qingyun. Some people had heard about it, but many people had not heard about it.

Mei Qingyun was a little embarrassed, but she couldn't cover up such a thing. She only nodded lightly: "It is true."

Someone said in surprise: "Mrs. Wang is still here, how could Mr. Wang do this?"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and soon realized that Mr. Wang had a wife, but he sent a matchmaker to the Mei family to arrange marriage, that is, he wanted to take Mei Qingyun as his concubine.

In an instant, everyone's hearts were filled with turmoil. How many children from aristocratic families wanted to marry Mei Qingyun back then and become their official wife? Now there is someone who wants to take her as a concubine and despises her so much.

Even if she is too old and unable to have children, she can still be a main wife. It is not like there is no widower who is older than her. With her talent and appearance, it is no problem to marry someone else as a second wife.

Therefore, the wife who used to ridicule her secretly now feels some sympathy for her. It is too pitiful to be abandoned at this age.

Mrs. Jingan Hou asked: "Sister, then, you didn't agree, did you?"

Mei Qingyun replied calmly: "My mother has refused on my behalf."

It was expected, and no one was surprised. A proud person like her could not be a concubine. Mr. Wang must have been one of her admirers back then, and he probably asked for her hand in marriage. Now he jumps in when he sees the opportunity. It's coming.

Back then, she was not willing to marry him as a wife, let alone a concubine.
