Chapter 343: The Chaste and Virtuous Woman Who Was Drowned in a Pond by Her Husband’s Family (13)

"You are a filial son. I don't need to tell you much. You know what I, as a mother, care about most."

Meng Jinlian stared at Gu Zhen with her triangular eyes, and her skinny hands grabbed her like eagle claws.

Gu Zhen pretended to be shy and lowered her head: "I know that mother is worried that my husband will have no offspring in the future, and there will be no one to sweep the graves for him. I feel the same way."

"It's just... I just don't know if big brother is willing? How should I explain to big sister-in-law?"

She seemed to remember something, and two red clouds appeared on her cheeks.

Meng Jinlian narrowed her eyes. Perhaps Fan'er was tired of Bai recently and was too impatient to look for her among the maids, so she mentioned Gu Zhen to her again and again.

Could it be that the two of them have been together for a long time?

But looking at her, Gu Zhen still looked like an unmarried girl, blushing and shying at every turn.

If the affair had already begun, the son would not have been so impatient.

And I don't think she has the courage to do so.

"I will take care of Fan'er. As the elder brother, he should take on the responsibility of inheriting his younger brother's family. As for Meng, it is not her turn to be the head of the family yet!"

"But Gu, remember, after giving birth to your son, you should go to the Buddhist temple in the backyard to practice asceticism and fulfill your duties as a widow, okay?!"

Meng Jinlian spoke in a stern voice, unable to stop coughing.

Gu Zhen seemed to be frightened. She held back her tears, her little face full of reluctance.

Seeing her like this, Meng Jinlian felt relieved. It is normal for a young girl to be in love. It would be strange if she didn't even feel dissatisfied.

Meng Jinlian comforted her by giving her a sweet date after a stick. "Don't worry, as long as you give birth to a son for the second child, you can enjoy the rest of your life. I will send some money to your parents right away. And your brother, if he wants to take the exam for a Tongsheng in the future, I will find someone to guarantee him!"

Gu Zhen's eyes immediately lit up, and she knelt down obediently, "Thank you for your kindness, mother. I will live up to your trust and give you a big fat grandson!"

Meng Jinlian laughed and coughed a few times, then felt dizzy and cold all over.

Gu Zhen quickly took the medicine bowl and fed it to her: "Mom, drink more medicine and get better soon. You still want to hold your grandson!"

After drinking the medicine, Meng Jinlian felt even more nauseous. She didn't know which acupoint Gu Zhen pressed, and her eyes went dark and she fell into a deep sleep.

She slept for a whole day. Gu Zhen was worried about her mother-in-law and stayed by her side day and night. She called many doctors, but they all said that she was old, weak, and had a severe cold, so she needed to keep taking medicine.

A few days passed, Meng Jinlian was sometimes drowsy and sometimes awake, sometimes she was so confused that she couldn't speak, but every time she woke up, she could see Gu Zhen by her side.

She could feel that she seemed to be incontinent, and the room was sometimes filled with a foul stench.

The two children who used to come to visit him, as well as the eldest daughter-in-law whom he loved very much, never showed up again.

Meng Jinlian was a little disappointed.

One afternoon, she had a rare moment of clarity.

"Call the young master over..."

The maid hurried to call for help. Gu Zhen helped Meng Jinlian sit up and said, "Mother, why don't you call a doctor to come and see us? How come you and father haven't recovered from your illness for so long?"

Meng Jinlian no longer cared about her husband's life or death. She just wanted to hear the news that the second wife had an heir while she was still alive!

Shang Yifan arrived quickly and covered his nose after entering the room.

No matter how I clean, there is always a smell in the house.

He stood a few steps away from the bed and bowed hastily, "Mom, why did you ask your son to come? Dad is very ill, and I need to take care of all the affairs outside. I'm busy!"

Meng Jinlian felt bitter. There was no filial son by her bedside, not to mention that Shang Yifan had never taken care of her for a single day!

These children are not as filial as the second daughter-in-law who was forced to marry in!

Forget it, children are all debts. Meng Jinlian raised her hand with difficulty and pointed at Gu Zhen, "Mother doesn't know when the time will come. You should sleep with the second son's wife as soon as possible and give birth to a child for your brother soon. Then your father and I can rest in peace even in the underworld!"

Shang Yifan was overjoyed and looked straight at Gu Zhen.

Gu Zhen glared at him with a blush on her face, and the look of affection between the two of them made Meng Jinlian's heart tremble.

"You... you..."

She suddenly felt a little regretful that she shouldn't have asked such a beautiful girl to come in!

But she was not pretty, and she was afraid that her eldest son would not agree. Meng Jinlian felt an itch in her throat, and suddenly coughed a few times, spitting out blood.

Gu Zhen was very calm. He rubbed her chest and pressed the acupoints to force the medicine into her mouth.

Meng Jinlian opened her eyes wide and was forced to swallow, and soon fell asleep.

Seeing that his mother had lost consciousness, Shang Yifan couldn't wait to rush over and hug Gu Zhen.

"Brother! Why are you in such a hurry? You can't stay here, right? Don't you mind the smell?"

Gu Zhen pretended to be angry, "Mom has already said it, I will be yours sooner or later. I will wash myself up and wait for you in the yard tonight. You should also remember to wash yourself, you smell like powder all over your body!"

Shang Yifan felt elated. These jealous words sounded really useful to him.

"Where is the smell of powder? I'm afraid it's not that my sister-in-law has fallen in love with something again and is looking for an excuse to ask me for something."

He has given a lot of money recently, but he can't even touch the little hand.

Gu Zhen was touched by what he said and snorted, "I serve mom for you all day long, and I always stink. If you want to be happier tonight, you have to buy me some good things to please me."

Shang Yifan was itching to get out of it, thinking that after all, he could not escape his poor background and was always finding ways to ask for money.

Anyway, he has money, so buying some little things to please her is also a kind of boudoir fun.

He really didn't want to endure the smell of feces and urine in the house, so he walked out, looking back every few steps.

As soon as he left the house, Gu Zhen's face immediately turned cold.

Leaving Meng Jinlian behind, she went straight back to her own yard, called Li Moer and gave her some instructions.

After taking the medicine prescribed by Gu Zhen, Li Moer felt much better. She didn't ask any questions and ran towards the East Courtyard.

Bai Ling had just laid down when she heard a faint cat meow coming from outside the yard.

Three long and two short.

She calmly put on her clothes and waited patiently until the maid in the outer room fell asleep before she quietly slipped out.

Seeing that it was indeed someone around the Second Young Madam, she breathed a sigh of relief.

The two walked to a secluded place, and Li Moer whispered, "Tonight at midnight, bring the eldest young lady to the west courtyard. This is the best time to get rid of her."

Bai Ling was horrified, and a few drops of cold sweat instantly ran down her back.

"This... The eldest young lady has been very quiet recently and hasn't bothered me again. Is there any need for that..."

Is it necessary to be so cruel?

Li Moer imitated Gu Zhen's tone, "Madam won't live for many days. If she dies, the eldest young lady will be the head of the family. By then, will you still have a chance to survive?"

Bai Ling suddenly came to her senses and thought to herself that she was careless. The eldest young lady is not someone who gives up easily. If this day really comes, what should she do?

Gritting her teeth, Bai Ling also made up her mind: "Okay, at midnight, I will bring the eldest young lady over!"
