Chapter 689 The Prime Minister Who Was No Heir Married His Son-in-law

“To be honest with you, my father and I also felt it was inappropriate at first. Even though we are a military family, we have to pay attention to our reputation. But when it comes to human life, what is the importance of all this?

We all know that the elder is worried about Master Chen, fearing that he might be in danger. When we wanted to get Miss Meng and Qianmo engaged, our two families even sought out a fortune teller, who said that Miss Meng is blessed with great fortune, and as long as she and Master Chen become a family, she will surely be safe for the rest of her life."

"So we think that the reason why the elder wants to marry Meng girl is definitely to let Meng girl enter the Chen family and continue to bless Master Chen. We can understand that very well. It doesn't matter if there is a little bit of fame, as long as Master Chen lives a safe and smooth life."

Chen Yanqing suddenly remembered that he seemed to have had his fortune told before, but wasn't it just something you listened to and let it go? Why did the Meng family treat it as a golden rule?

They also said something about blessing Qianmo with a safe and smooth life. If the Chen family didn't marry Meng Wenyao, would the Meng family not let Chen Qianmo have a good life?

Threat, naked threat.

After hearing this, he understood that if he was unwilling to marry Meng Wen Yao, the old man of the Meng family would threaten to commit suicide, and the Meng family would also threaten to harm Chen Qianmo's life.

This forced him to reconsider this marriage. Was it appropriate to marry the woman his son had just broken off the engagement and risk being laughed at?

After thinking for a long time, he wanted to make a final struggle: "General Meng, to be honest, the master also said that I am destined to have few children. If Meng girl really marries me, it is very likely that in the future..."

"We know that you don't have many children, otherwise we wouldn't be so nervous about you, Master Chen. But it doesn't matter. You are unlucky, but our little girl Meng is blessed. I guarantee that you will have children around you when the time comes."

Seeing that Chen Yanqing wanted to say something else, General Meng clapped his hands and ended the conversation directly: "Okay, I know that you scholars are afraid of tigers in front of you and wolves behind you. You are just worried about your reputation, right? Leave it to me. I will make sure that your reputation will not be damaged. Please send your horoscope to our house when you have time so that we can write a marriage certificate."

After General Meng finished speaking, he left without waiting for Chen Yanqing to say anything else. After leaving the Chen Mansion, he immediately headed straight for the White Horse Temple in the suburbs.

In the Meng Mansion, Meng Wen Yao had just gotten up when she saw Xiao Ju laughing so hard that her mouth reached the back of her head.

"Hey, you picked up money so early in the morning?"

Xiaoju immediately stretched out her hand, and there were indeed two silver coins inside. Meng Wenyao said with a smile: "I was right, I actually picked up money."

"certainly not."

Xiaoju pulled her hand back and said with a smile: "I didn't pick it up, it was given to me by my family as a reward. Miss, can you guess why?"

Meng Wenyao stretched lazily, picked up her shoes, sat in front of the dressing mirror, and asked nonchalantly, "Why? My grandfather celebrated his birthday yesterday, and my family forgot to give out the reward money. Did you give it out today?"

"Miss, you guessed wrong this time. This reward is to congratulate you on your engagement."

After Xiaoju finished speaking, Meng Wenyao stood up suddenly. She had just expressed her feelings to Chen Yanqing last night, and the subsequent plans had not yet been launched. She thought it would be impossible to have results so early.

If this is an engagement, it is most likely with some other family.

She could understand that the Meng family was humiliated by Chen Qianmo yesterday and were feeling resentful. Today, they might just find someone to get engaged to in order to save face and show everyone that there were plenty of people who could marry the daughter of the Meng family.

We can't let this happen, otherwise if we break off the engagement again and look for Chen Yanqing, there will be even greater obstacles.

Please help me dress up quickly, I want to find my father and grandfather, this marriage is too hasty.

Xiao Ju's smiling face slowly faded. While helping Meng Wen Yao get dressed, she consoled her, "It's normal for the young lady to be unwilling. How can she turn around and get engaged to her father just after she has divorced her son? If the young lady feels embarrassed, please talk to the master. After all, the reward money has been paid, which shows that the master has almost done it. It may be difficult to cancel the engagement again."

As Xiaoju was talking, she saw Meng Wenyao was stunned. She whispered, "Miss, did you hear that?"

"You said that my family wants me to get engaged to Elder Chen?"

Meng Wen Yao felt like she might be dreaming. She had just brought it up last night, and Chen Yanqing had clearly expressed his opposition. How could he agree after just one night?

She must have heard it wrong, she must have heard it wrong.

But Xiaoju reiterated firmly: "Yes, the master has asked a master to read your horoscope and he said that you and Elder Chen are a perfect match. You will definitely be a loving couple and have many children after you get married."

Meng Wenyao finally heard it clearly. She came to her senses, slowly sat down on the chair, and pulled Xiaoju to her side, saying, "This is too mysterious. Can you tell me what happened in detail?"

"I don't know what happened, but I heard that the master went to the Chen Mansion early in the morning to discuss the marriage, and then the Chen Mansion agreed, so he went to the White Horse Temple. The master also said that you two are suitable, and the master gave the reward money when he returned home. I'm afraid the whole capital knows about it now."

This couldn't be General Meng's wishful thinking. What if Chen Yanqing didn't admit it in the future? Meng Wenyao was a little worried.

"So the Chen family hasn't definitely agreed to this marriage yet?"

"How can I not agree?"

Xiao Ju counted on her fingers and said, "The master said that because you are so blessed and can bless Chen Qianmo, Chen Ge Lao wants to marry you. He is doing this for his son's life. He is so worried about his son, how could he not agree. Even if it gets out, others will only understand that Chen Ge Lao is willing to do anything for his son. He is really a kind father."

This means that Chen Yanqing has already been put on the fire. Meng Wen Yao let out a long sigh. It seems that it is almost done. If this news spreads, even if Chen Yanqing does not marry, his reputation will spread.

If I marry her, at least I can get a good reputation, otherwise it will be a complete joke.

In this case, she would not rush out to question General Meng. She would wait and see what happened and it would not be too late to make follow-up plans later.

Anyway, no matter what Chen Yanqing planned, she held the trump card in her hand. She didn't believe that Chen Yanqing didn't want to take care of his body and have a few children.

In the Chen residence, Chen Yanqing was still thinking about how to get the Meng family to give up the idea of ​​marriage, when he heard the housekeeper Fu Bo come in and report: "Sir, people say that you like Miss Meng because she has a good fortune and great luck. In order to bless the young master, have you decided to marry Miss Meng yourself?"

"What? It's being spread outside?" Chen Yanqing lost his composure for the second time in one day.

"It was a servant who was doing shopping in the mansion. He heard it at the vegetable market outside."

It has spread to the vegetable market. Does that mean that both the dignitaries and the common people know about it?

Even if he ran to the city gate tower to explain, no one would probably listen.

Things have come to this point. If he is determined not to marry, the Meng family might use some desperate tactics.
