After rebirth, I became a treacherous minister Black Moonlight

Seeing Meng Qianqian looking embarrassed and at a loss, Madam Wang chuckled: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore."

Meng Qianqian said "oh".

Madam Wang said proudly, "I am so happy to know that you are Meng Xiaojiu. I am afraid the Lu family must be regretting it so much. They gave up such an excellent daughter-in-law like you for a mute girl from the border. If I were them, I would vomit blood!"

Meng Qianqian said awkwardly: "Madam, you are joking."

Madam Wang held her hand and said earnestly, "I'm not joking. I'm serious, Qianqian. You are a good girl, but the Lu family is not worthy of you. Just treat those five years of sincerity as wasted. You are still young, and you have a long way to go in the future. You will definitely meet a man who truly cherishes you."

As she spoke, she raised her hand to tidy up Meng Qianqian's hair, "I don't have a son, otherwise I would have begged you to come home, but with Wang Daniu's character, you probably wouldn't even look down on his son."

Meng Qianqian couldn't help laughing out loud, her eyes curved into crescents.

Mrs. Wang said with relief, "That's more like it. Why should you act so mature all the time when you are so young?"

Mrs. Wang really likes Meng Qianqian, not only because Meng Qianqian saved her life in the shop, but also because Meng Qianqian has a rare courage and tenacity. She is the bravest girl Mrs. Wang has ever seen.

Because of the flower-tasting banquet at Wanhua Tower, the coast was more lively than before. The long street was crowded with people who came to watch, the shops lined up one after another were full, and the hawkers' shouts were heard one after another.

The carriage could not enter, so Meng Qianqian and Mrs. Wang got off the carriage with their maids.

Tan'er was attracted by the candied haws on the roadside at first sight. Meng Qianqian bought four strings, two for herself and two for Mrs. Wang's maid.

The maid didn't dare to accept it.

Mrs. Wang said, "Eat."

The maid then took it with a smile. She only wanted one string because she couldn't finish it.

"You eat some too." Mrs. Wang handed the fourth string of candied haws to Meng Qianqian.

"Ah?" Meng Qianqian was stunned and whispered, "It's for the child to eat."

Mrs. Wang burst out laughing.

The two walked through the bustling streets, came to the shore, and boarded a gorgeous and exquisite houseboat.

The houseboat has two floors. The first floor is a lobby with ventilation on all sides and hanging curtains made of colorful jade, gemstones and beads. The second floor has a series of elegant rooms.

Mrs. Wang took Meng Qianqian's hand and went up to the second floor, then turned left and entered the Lan wing.

Surprisingly, the place was already packed with guests.

Madam Wang was stunned. "You didn't say it was Youshi? Why did everyone arrive so early?"

Everyone chatted.

Madam Zhou asked, "Didn't you come early too?"

Mrs. Wang coughed lightly and said, "I'm just afraid that it's too late and I'll miss the Lantern Festival."

Are you afraid of missing the lantern festival or missing the chance to see the Oiran?

Everyone knows it tacitly, but they don't say it out loud.

Madam Zhou's gaze fell on Meng Qianqian, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes: "This must be Miss Meng, right?"

Last time in the palace, Meng Qianqian was wearing tight clothes, looking heroic. Now she had changed into a woman's pink and white corseted silk dress, her black hair like a waterfall, her face as beautiful as a jade, and she was incredibly beautiful.

Her every move was graceful, elegant and graceful, and there was nothing wrong with her.

"What's with all your expressions?"

Madam Wang glared back at everyone who was looking at her. "Qianqian, let me introduce you. This is Madam Zhou, the wife of General Zhou of the Imperial Cavalry Battalion. This is Madam Xing, whom I met at the Liu family last time. It was Lady Xing who handled your case with the Lu family."

Meng Qianqian remembered and bowed to the two ladies.

Madam Zhou reached out to help her: "I don't deserve it! Miss Meng is as brave as any man and has made great contributions at the border. How can women like me accept the gift from a hero?"

Meng Qianqian said sincerely: "The two ladies are elders, so you should accept Qianqian's greetings."

Mrs. Xing nodded approvingly, saying that she behaved with moderation, was not arrogant because of her achievements, and had a kind and gentle heart.

"Ouch, am I late?"

Along with a lively and cheerful voice, a plump lady came upstairs smiling.

Miss Zhou followed behind her.

Miss Zhou let out a long sigh: "I got the person!"

As soon as she entered the room, she saw Meng Qianqian. She immediately walked forward excitedly and held Meng Qianqian's hand, "Sister Meng? My mother didn't lie to me, you really came!"

Meng Qianqian was stunned.

Madam Zhou said angrily, "You naughty monkey, be careful not to scare Miss Meng!"

Miss Zhou said: "Sister Meng won't be scared, but Sister Wang is easily scared!"

Mrs. Zhou felt embarrassed.

Madam Wang smiled and said, "Yan'er is right. That girl is too timid. After her engagement was rejected, she hid in her maternal grandparents' home. She is not like me and her father at all."

Who said that dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and mice give birth to children who can dig holes? The bold and daring Wang Yushi gave birth to a timid daughter.

Miss Zhou said, "Mom, Aunt Wang, Aunt Xing, you guys chat about your things. Sister Meng and I are going outside to enjoy the lake!"

Meng Qianqian was pulled out by the enthusiastic Miss Zhou.

"Sister Meng, my name is Zhou Nanyan. From now on, you can call me Yan'er like Sister Wang."

"it is good."

"Sister Meng, let's go play downstairs!"

"Ah."

Today, all the ladies that Madam Wang had appointments with were prominent and virtuous ladies in the capital. Meng Qianqian could certainly see that Madam Wang was paving the way for her. Since she didn't want to return to Youzhou, she would do her best to expand her network in the capital.

Meng Qianqian would not be ungrateful.

The two went downstairs.

Ever since Zhou Nanyan learned about Meng Qianqian's past from Tan'er and Banxia, ​​she felt both distressed and respectful towards her. Plus, she was lively and cheerful, so even though Meng Qianqian didn't talk much, the conversation between them was never dull.

"Meng Qianqian, if only I were a man, I would come to you and ask for your hand in marriage! You may not necessarily like me, but I will work hard to make myself worthy of you."

Meng Qianqian smiled slightly: "If Miss Zhou were a man, he would definitely be the most upright man in the world."

Zhou Nanyan said: "That's right! At least I won't be unfaithful and bring back some questionable women from outside!"

"Who are you calling indecent?"

An angry female voice came from behind the two of them.

The two turned around and saw Zhou Nanyan laughing coldly, "I was wondering who it was, it turned out to be Miss Lu! You've become a street rat, why don't you stay at home and show off in public, do you think your Lu family is not shameful enough?"

"you--"

Lu Linglong was furious.

She had indeed suffered a great blow recently. First, her close friends who used to be close to her distanced themselves from her one by one. Then, those who had tried their best to propose marriage to the second wife also disappeared. When asked, they said that their horoscopes were incompatible and they had gone to see other people.

Lu Linglong's market value plummeted and she was feeling very depressed, so she took the opportunity of the Lantern Festival to relax.

Unexpectedly, he was ridiculed as soon as he got on the boat.

Lu Linglong couldn't scold Zhou Nanyan, so she turned around and pointed her spearhead at Meng Qianqian: "You vicious woman! The Lu family is in this situation because of you, how dare you come out here?"

Meng Qianqian smiled faintly: "You have the nerve to come out, why can't I?"

Lu Linglong said angrily, "My eldest brother doesn't want you anymore, you are just an abandoned woman, what's there to be proud of? What's so great about being able to fight? You are not a faithful wife and you flirt with other men. I want to see which man dares to marry you in the future!"
