The empress is pregnant, and the emperor's incense continues

They blamed her for being stingy when they cheated and cheated. They just disliked their lack of oil and water and were unwilling to contribute. Meng Wenyao smiled clearly: "Mommy is old and it's cold outside, so don't run around. I'll let others buy it."

Grandma Wang suddenly became anxious and hurriedly argued: "How can this be done? I have been responsible for purchasing charcoal fires for decades. No one in the house knows better than me what charcoal fires cost. Young lady is impatient in doing things. Don't waste money by then. Things Not a good buy.”

Before Meng Wenyao could say anything, Qin Muyang suddenly said: "The steward of the outer courtyard is also responsible for purchasing charcoal, so he asked the outer courtyard to purchase it together."

Grandma Wang was stunned for a moment. Did she lose her job just like that?

"Young mistress, you can't just do this for me. Aren't you afraid of chilling the old man's heart?"

Grandma Wang howled at the top of her voice. Qin Muyang glanced at her coldly and stopped her voice immediately.

"Your errand is my master's fault and has nothing to do with the eldest mistress."

"Gag her mouth and drag her out."

Soon, Meng Wenyao asked the next woman to come over: "Mother Li, the New Year is about to come, haven't the new New Year clothes in the sewing room been ready yet?"

Seeing what happened to Grandma Wang, Grandma Li stumbled and said: "It's done, it's done, it's done soon, it's done soon."

"Is it good or bad?"

Grandma Li knelt down with a plop. Mrs. Wang sent someone to tell her that the new clothes for the New Year must be made slowly. In this way, during the New Year, the new clothes of the masters in the house have not been ready. By then, all the masters in the house will be ready. Everyone will definitely complain that Meng Wenyao is not able to be a director.

Now that the eldest mistress's grip on power is getting tighter and tighter, Mrs. Wang is afraid that she has no chance to make a comeback. She is afraid that she is with the wrong person. Is it too late to change her family now?

"Old lady, I'll go back and hurry up and do some extra processing to make the new clothes."

"Okay, you go down."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Muyang immediately said sternly: "Wait a minute, she is so sneaky and sneaky, how can the Hou Mansion allow her to fish in troubled waters again? Come on, drag her out."

The couple was like this, one was a bad guy and the other was a good guy, and they dealt with all of Mrs. Wang's confidants in one morning. No one could say that Meng Wenyao was excellent at what she did, after all, everyone was dealt with by the eldest son.

Little Wang looked on in shock, could a husband still protect his wife like this?

When something happened to Mrs. Wang, Ping Xihou was unselfish and forced Mrs. Wang to fill up the hole. In order to raise money, a lot of her dowry was put in.

As for her own husband, he came back drunk all day long. Apart from having sex, he was fast asleep, as if he came back home just to give birth to a legitimate grandson.

Not all men are like Ping Xihou and Qin Pingyang. It turns out that they can be like Qin Muyang, protecting their wives in everything and preventing her from suffering any injustice.

After handling the matter, Meng Wenyao and Qin Muyang left hand in hand, leaving little Wang wandering alone and not knowing where to go.

When she returned to the room, she was alone. Her husband would not enter the house until night.

As for the main courtyard, since she got the wrong joke last time, she was embarrassed to see Mrs. Wang.

Finally, she walked to the main courtyard without knowing it and reported the matter to Mrs. Wang.

Mrs. Wang smashed the pillow angrily and gave serious instructions: "Let them be arrogant now. As long as you give birth to a male grandson, I will contact the clan elders and make sure that the Marquis makes Pingyang the crown prince. Then you will be the crown prince's wife." , we, the two of us, have the final say in this family."

Xiao Wang asked unconvincingly: "But will the Marquis really listen to the clan elders?"

"Yes, the Marquis pays great attention to filial piety, and you don't know that the former Marquis of Huainan was directly seduced by the Emperor because he had no legitimate son. If the Marquis insists on establishing the eldest son, he will have no legitimate son in the future, and if the Emperor does not recognize the adopted heir, this Marquis will The mansion may also be deprived of its title, and the Marquis will definitely be shaken."

Little Wang seemed to have taken reassurance. On the way back, she kept chanting silently: "If you want to have a son, you must have a son. Have a son as soon as possible."

In the blink of an eye, New Year's Eve arrived, and the second young master, who was lingering outside, had to stay at home because of the New Year, and finally knew what happened at home recently.

He said nonchalantly: "Mom is fine. When I give birth to a legitimate grandson for you, my father will make me the crown prince. I will leave all the private property that will belong to the crown prince to you."

Mrs. Wang's eyes turned red when she was moved. She held Qin Pingyang's hand and kept saying: "My son, my son, my mother's love for you has not been in vain."

Since all the thorns in the house have been taken care of, Meng Wenyao now has complete control over the inner courtyard of the Hou Mansion. Mrs. Wang seems to have given up causing trouble for her, and the new year passed smoothly.

After the New Year, it was the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. On this day, Qin Muyang suddenly wanted to take Meng Wenyao out to watch the lanterns.

"I'm busy at home these days, and you're the one taking care of it. Have a good rest tonight."

Meng Wenyao smiled and was embraced by him, blending into the endless flow of people watching the lanterns.

The streets were crowded with people, and all kinds of lanterns lit up the dim streets like a galaxy.

Meng Wenyao had been late for Kuishui for many days. She was worried about the crowds on the street, but after walking for a few steps, she complained that she was tired and asked Qin Muyang to take her to the second floor of a restaurant to rest.

The second floor faces the street, and you can see the street outside when you open the window.

By coincidence, I happened to see Meng Xiangyi and Master Song also shopping for lanterns.

It was very cold outside, and Meng Xiangyi's clothes were a little thin. In previous winters, she always wore fox fur, and now it seems that her life is indeed much poorer.

Glancing at Qin Muyang next to him, Meng Wenyao wondered: "I have something I want to trouble you with."

Qin Muyang embraced Meng Wenyao with a smile in his eyes, and whispered: "What is it that makes my wife so embarrassed?"

This matter is really embarrassing. Meng Wenyao said a little embarrassedly: "I told you, husband, please don't be angry."

Qin Muyang hugged her even tighter and whispered in Meng Wenyao's ear, "If you don't tell me, my husband will be angry."

The hot breath sprayed all over Meng Wenyao's neck, causing her body to soften. She leaned against Qin Muyang and spoke out the request in a soft tone.

Sure enough, Qin Muyang's face turned cold and he stared at Meng Wenyao with some displeasure.

"Husband, please, husband~"

After a while of soft talk, Qin Muyang summoned a clever guard, pointed at Meng Xiangyi and Mr. Song outside the building, and explained a few words.

The guard usually thinks that he is smart, but he didn't want to encounter today's errand. It is quite difficult. I heard that you bump into someone and steal the wallet. This is the first time I heard that you bump into someone and give away the wallet.

The guard followed Meng Xiangyi and Mr. Song all the way. When he found a suitable opportunity, he bumped into Mr. Song and stuffed a purse containing hundreds of taels of silver notes into Mr. Song.

During the Lantern Festival, the streets were crowded. Mr. Song was bumped into by someone, but he didn't take it to heart at all. He continued to pull Meng Xiangyi to look at the lanterns. After walking around for a while, he wanted to take his wallet into his pocket and buy two meatloaf to eat. , and actually touched two purses.
