Concubine of the Prime Minister

Chapter 24
"Mei'er, hurry up and serve Second Miss a bowl of porridge."

"Yes, I'm going now, servant girl." Behind the third aunt, the beautiful Mei'er responded with a smile and walked out immediately.

After a while, Mei'er came in with a bowl of snow clam porridge, and the rich aroma hooked Mengdie's greedy worms out, and she couldn't help joking: "It seems that Die'er is really right to come today, it's so good The treatment is taking advantage of my aunt, I'm really afraid that I won't want to leave after this meal."

The third aunt's face turned red when she heard the words, this snow clam is an extremely valuable food material, it can be said that it is hard to find, and now she is the only one in Zuo Xiang's mansion who has this treatment, it can be seen that Zuo Xiang really cares about her...

I knew it was the same thing in my heart, but after being teased by my daughter, San Yiniang almost wanted to dig a hole to get in, "You ghost girl..."

"You don't have to be shy, Auntie. Daddy loves you and is happy to see you as a daughter, but..."

Mengdie hesitated to speak, she glanced behind the third aunt without a trace, and the third aunt understood, knowing that her daughter had something to say, so she said flatly: "You all go down first."

"Lian'er Ling'er, you guys go down too. I haven't seen San Yi Niang for a long time and I want to say something about myself." While speaking, Mengdie gave Lian'er and Ling'er a meaningful look. Both girls are extremely clever. People, knowing that Mengdie sent them away was not really to guard against them, but to let them guard against other people outside, so he returned Mengdie with a reassuring look, and followed the maid beside San Yiniang to retreat. go out.

"Die'er, what do you want to say to Auntie?" As soon as the door was closed, Third Aunt couldn't wait to hold Mengdie's hand and asked, with a faint look of anxiety on her face.

Mengdie lightly patted Third Aunt's hand, and smiled softly: "Mother, let me call you mother when there is no one else."

"This... This is against the rules, if someone else hears it, it will hurt you!" Mengdie's "Mother" actually made San Yiniang burst into tears, and her beautiful eyes were full of struggle and pain.

"Mother, don't you want me to call you mother?" Gently wiped away the tears from her face, and looked at Third Aunt slightly complaining.

Seeing this, Third Auntie's tears flowed even more fiercely, her heart was full of sadness, and she cried uncontrollably: "I want to! Of course I want to, even dreaming, but..."

It's just that she is just an aunt, and can only watch helplessly as her own daughter calls someone else's mother, while she wants to call herself an aunt!May I ask, is there any mother in the world who wants her child to recognize another woman as her mother?Although she resents and refuses to accept, she has no choice but to swallow her grievances in her stomach, blaming her humble status...

Seeing San Yiniang's ever-changing expressions, especially the resentment and longing in her eyes, Mengdie felt a little pain in her heart, gently stroking her back to comfort her, and said lightly: "As long as mother wants, Die'er will help you." You take it, one day, I will call you mother in a fair manner."

Hearing this, San Yiniang's body shook suddenly, and she raised her head to look at her indifferent daughter in disbelief. When she saw the firmness in her eyes, San Yiniang knew that she was serious, even though she was moved by her However, she was afraid that she would do something wrong and go the wrong way, which would harm herself instead, so she said anxiously: "Die Er, what do you want to do? Mother doesn't care about those false names, as long as you are safe... "

"Mother, don't worry, Die'er has her own measure. Those false names are indeed worthless, but Die'er wants to be able to call you mother in a fair manner, so the false name must be yours!" Seeing Third Aunt, she seemed to want to say something What, Mengdie immediately changed the subject resolutely, and said worriedly: "It's lucky but also unfortunate that father dotes on you so much now. Although mother is doing well, Die'er is also very happy, but my heart is always restless."

Hearing Mengdie's words, San Yiniang's attention was really diverted. Although she was still a little worried about her daughter's violent behavior, parents always think that their children are the best, and of course they will do so unconditionally. Because of her trust, she carefully considered Mengdie's words.Xiumei frowned slightly unconsciously, her eyes were full of doubts, obviously she didn't quite understand what Mengdie's words meant, in her opinion, to be favored by Prime Minister Zuo was very important to her and to her own daughter. It is beneficial but harmless, but now her daughter clearly told her that this kind of favor is both a blessing and a misfortune, which made her vigilant, because she firmly believed that her daughter would never be groundless, and she was the only one in this world. Someone who won't hurt her.

Seeing the puzzled expression on San Yiniang's face, Mengdie sighed slightly in her heart. She knew that San Yiniang was weak by nature, but she never thought that she was still so innocent. After living in this deep house for so many years, she could still maintain her own Pure and unpolluted, should I say she is too stupid or too naive?Such a girl has received the unique favor from Prime Minister Zuo. Is it a blessing or a curse?
"Mother, you think of human nature too simply."

"Die'er, are you afraid that someone will harm me? You are too worried. I am just a woman with no power to restrain me. I have never offended anyone on weekdays. Who will attack me?" " San Yiniang smiled noncommittally, obviously she didn't take Mengdie's worries to heart, she just thought that Mengdie was concerned and would be confused, which was a bit unfounded.

Mengdie shook her head helplessly, and asked earnestly, "Mother, let me ask you, how would you feel if your father favored other women and neglected you?"

The third aunt's face froze when she heard the words, and said, "It's only natural for a man to have three wives and four concubines, I... how could I have any thoughts."

"Mother, there are only our mother and daughter here. You should tell your daughter the truth. Women are human beings with hearts and feelings. I don't believe you have no idea at all." I don't expect her to have any modern thinking, so I just ignored the first half of her sentence, so as not to feel depressed.

Forced by Mengdie's sight, San Yiniang had no choice but to smile bitterly, and said bitterly: "I have lived through such days for more than ten years, how can I not understand the pain? Although I have been constantly Tell yourself that he is not mine alone, he has other wives and concubines, a woman must obey the three virtues and be tolerant, this is a good wife and good concubine, but when he loves other women too much, he treats me indifferently At the extreme, I still can't help feeling resentful and jealous... I, am I shameless and shameless?"
