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

It might also be because of this reason that Chen Qianmo was unwilling to take her with him when he went out recently, and she felt very aggrieved.

Now when she heard Meng Wen Yao's words about finding a wife for Chen Qianmo, she felt even more upset. Chen Qianmo still cared about her in his heart. If the young lady came into the house, she would be suppressed even more severely.

Thinking of this, she felt that her future was bleak. For the first time, she felt that marrying Chen Qianmo made her future unclear.

She adjusted her mentality and whispered, "Madam is right. The young master has reached the age to marry, but he is too ambitious. He said that he would never marry unless he passed the imperial examination. Looking at his current situation, I'm afraid he has no plans to do so for a while. I'm sorry to make you worried."

Meng Wenyao took a sip of tea without caring and chuckled: "I didn't expect that you are so ambitious. Passing the imperial examination is important, but it's a pity that you are almost sixteen. If you wait any longer, you may not be able to find a good wife."

"Two days ago, the old man was still lamenting that Qianmo had no mother to teach him when he was young. Although I am married now, Qianmo is older now and we can't get too close. Now that he has failed in his studies, it is better for him to get married first and choose a wife who can help Qianmo study hard and make progress. With the young lady urging him in the future, there is no need to worry that Qianmo will not be able to pass the imperial examinations soon. It is better than fooling around all day and wasting his time now."

These words, which seemed true and false, made Liu Ruyan feel like she was facing a formidable enemy. She had only been married for a few months. If Chen Qianmo got married so soon, how could she and Chen Qianmo develop a relationship that went beyond that of a married couple?

She glanced at Meng Wenyao's half-smile and half-smiled expression, and said meaningfully: "Madam, it is not easy to choose a wife for this young master. You know, if the young master doesn't want the one he chooses, he will cancel the engagement himself. You don't want to see him cancel the engagement again and again. If he cancels the engagement again, you can't ask the old man to marry her back."

After saying that, she looked at Meng Wen Yao provocatively, implying that if Meng Wen Yao was not afraid of being slapped in the face by Chen Qianmo, she could just find someone to get engaged to Chen Qianmo.

Meng Wen Yao no longer takes Chen Qianmo seriously. She would never get angry about his affairs. Liu Ruyan's sarcastic words could not stir up any waves in Meng Wen Yao's heart.

She smiled lovingly and said, "It's because I thought it would be hard for Qianmo to choose a wife, so I asked you to come here. Qianmo and you are close friends. Tell me what kind of person Qianmo likes, and I will find her according to your advice."

"what?"

Liu Ruyan was provoked again. Was she going to personally help choose a wife for Chen Qianmo?

If I really choose the type that Chen Qianmo likes, wouldn’t that be inviting a wolf into the house?

If the one chosen is not what Chen Qianmo likes, there will definitely be complaints in the future.

What's more, which woman would be willing to send another woman to her husband's bed?

She was angry and anxious, and said angrily: "I don't know."

"You don't know?" Meng Wen Yao deliberately raised her voice.

"The young master likes you so much, how come you don't know what kind of person he likes?"

She looked at Liu Ruyan carefully, examining her from head to toe as if she were an object, and then pointed at Liu Ruyan and said to the maids around her, "Don't you look very weak? I feel pity for you!"

The tone was slightly sarcastic, and several maids covered their mouths and laughed, making Liu Ruyan feel insulted instantly.

But she was just a concubine and had no power to fight back in front of the mistress of the house. What was even worse was that Chen Qianmo was not at home at the moment and no one would come to help her.

She could only glare at Meng Wen Yao angrily and listen to those insulting words.

"I think the young master probably likes such weak girls, who can only stare at others when they are angry and dare not say a word. As for talent, it's enough for them to write a few sour poems and be able to pretend to be cultured like the young master, but they can't really study and learn."

"And with this character, he must be timid and sneaky. The young master probably doesn't like to date women openly."

After saying this, Meng Wenyao covered her mouth and smiled, "Do you think my summary is correct? The young master likes people who are weak, pretend to be knowledgeable, and can sneak around?"

The maids around could no longer control their laughter. After laughing for a while, one of them said, "Madam, there really is such a person!"

"Oh~" Meng Wen Yao motioned for her to speak out.

"A few days ago, we went out to buy rouge for the lady, and we happened to see the young master with a young girl buying rouge. The girl kept calling him Brother Qianmo, and she looked very weak. She even recited a few poems while buying rouge. The young master repeatedly praised her for her talent. Also, doesn't this look sneaky?"

"Is this true?" Meng Wen Yao asked in surprise.

The maid nodded. When everyone looked at Liu Ruyan again, they saw that she didn't believe it at all. She stared with wide eyes and murmured, "It's impossible. The young master only likes me. The young master went out to visit friends, not to have a private meeting. You are deliberately lying to me to sow discord between me and the young master."

Seeing Liu Ruyan in a trance, Meng Wenyao pretended to scold the maid, "Perhaps you have made a mistake. How about this, find a few servants to follow the young master. If there is a young lady who really catches the young master's eye, we can go directly to propose marriage. This will save me from having to figure it out on my own and possibly find someone the young master doesn't like."

After that, she looked at Liu Ruyan again and said with a smile: "Aunt Liu, you see, I have troubled you for so much, but I still can't find out what kind of person the young master likes. You should know that the young master will find one outside by himself. I just asked someone to follow the young master and the young lady, and we will know everything."

"Hurry up and send Madam Liu back. Madam Liu has been very hard working accompanying the Master to study these days. Ask Madam Zhuang to bring Madam Liu some good food to replenish her body."

"By the way, where is Madam Zhuang? Why don't we see her following Madam Liu?"

At this time, Xiaoju said, "Madame Zhuang has been out a lot lately. She is the housekeeper in the mansion. She just said that the young master asked her to do something, so we can't ask."

"I see. Since it was the young master who asked you to do this, it must be something important. It can't be about serving the young lady outside."

Everyone laughed at her again, and Liu Ruyan left in a daze. These days, she noticed that Madam Zhuang was always out. In the past, when Madam Zhuang was at home, she always treated her coldly. She felt that she would be freer when Madam Zhuang was out.

She didn't want to hear what Meng Wen Yao said today. She suddenly felt that something was strange. Why did Chen Qianmo and Nanny Zhuang always go out together?

Many times, they also brought beautiful gifts.

She knew that Chen Qianmo had a savior, and she used to think that this was a gift to the benefactor, but now she thought that the frequency of repaying the favor was too high.

The more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong, so she immediately sent someone out to find out what Chen Qianmo had been doing these days.

In the main courtyard, Meng Wenyao heard the maid report: "Madam, Aunt Liu sent several people out, apparently to inquire about the whereabouts of the young master."
