Mi Lan’s gaze swept over Meng Yao and Meng Jiao lovingly and praised, “Wei Hui, I really envy you all. There are too few girls in our family. I like to have little girls. Look at these two children.”

Wei Hui laughed, “Let Shen Yin bear another child! While she was still young, she should hurry up and give birth to a daughter. By then, even Lu Chong would be happy!”

Everyone joked and chatted.

Meng Jiao thought silently in her heart, ‘If everyone was the same on the surface, would life become better?’

The Lu family and the Meng family turned against each other because of benefits in the end. Of course, Lu Chong and Meng Yao also contributed to that.

Unfortunately, Meng Jiao was powerless to do anything about it. Fortunately, Meng Lin and Meng Wei were both talented and not as disloyal as the Lu family.

In fact, until the end, Meng Lin, Meng Wei, and Meng An had all been very good to Meng Jiao. The Meng family had never mistreated Meng Jiao in terms of money. It was just that she did not receive the love she deserved from the Meng family. It was because of her inferiority complex. Of course, the main culprit was Meng Yao.

Meng Yao ate her meal absent-mindedly and left to look for Meng Wei and Lu Chong.

Meng Jiao knew that Meng Yao wanted Lu Chong to stabilize her engagement.

‘She was only twelve years old, and Meng Yao was already so anxious to plan her future. It was really sad for her.’

Staying in the wealthy class was the whole meaning of life for Meng Yao. She did not know that there was always someone better than her. The outside world was freer. Only by living independently could she make her life more meaningful.

After sending off the Lu family, Meng Tang and his father went into the study to discuss matters. Wei Hui called out to Ning Jia.

Ning Jia was distracted and could only stay behind to listen to her mother-in-law’s lecture.

Meng Yao saw that things were not looking good and had already pulled Meng Wei away. Meng Jiao had no choice but to stay by Ning Jia’s side.

“Do you understand what the Lu family means?” asked Wei Hui. Her voice was devoid of warmth.

Ning Jia looked up and met her mother-in-law’s gaze. She replied, “It seems that they want to be in-laws with our family. After that, I went out. I don’t know what you and the Lu family discussed.”

Wei Hui was unhappy with Ning Jia’s words and she had nowhere to release it. She said, “The Lu family wants to have a closer relationship with us. They also know that your father-in-law wants to establish a relationship with the Gong family, so they want us to treat them equally.”

Ning Jia smiled bitterly and said, “What’s there to be equal about? What if we only have one daughter? Even if she marries the Gong family, they won’t have a daughter who can marry into our family!”

Wei Hui did not refute, which was rare. She snorted coldly and said, “Even if they do not have a daughter, she’ll still give us a daughter. Isn’t there still a nest of women in Lu Jun’s second family?”

As long as it was the first wife, no one did not share a common enemy in this aspect.

“Mother, Father didn’t agree to the Lu family’s request, did he?” Ning Jia asked.

“Of course not. Are we the kind of people who trade our children’s future for benefits?” Wei Hui said unhappily.

Seeing Ning Jia let out a sigh of relief, Wei Hui continued, “But since this matter has been brought up, it’s impossible to just let it go and pretend that it didn’t happen. If the Gong family’s matter is resolved through this method, the Lu Family will definitely interfere. Your father-in-law values the friendship between the three brothers the most, so this matter may become a reality. You have to know in your heart.”

Ning Jia’s expression darkened.

“You seem to be unwilling, but Meng Yao seems to be happy.” Wei Hui said disdainfully.

Ning Jia looked up and said unhappily, “Mother! How old was Meng Yao? How could she have such thoughts? Lu Chong was the one who started spouting nonsense. He was already sixteen years old, and he had such a lawless personality. Naturally, he knew everything. Meng Yao had followed him and Meng Wei since he was young, but he treated him like an older brother!”

Wei Hui sneered, “Is that so? I must have seen it wrongly. You raised your own child, so you naturally know what kind of temperament he has. I’m just worried that you’ll be deceived. The human heart is the most unfathomable thing! On the other hand, the one in front of you has clear eyes. I wonder if she’s blessed or not.”

“The children of the Meng family are naturally blessed!” Ning Jia lowered her eyes and said stubbornly.

Wei Hui did not want to continue talking to Ning Jia, so she said, “I’ve told you everything that I should tell you. I just want you to be mentally prepared. Once you leave our house and outside, you can’t let any news out. Gossip is a terrible thing. If you reveal even a little bit of it, whether it’s good or bad, those reporters will make groundless accusations. At that time, the ones who will be affected will be our girls!”

Meng Jiao suddenly realized that this seemingly unreasonable grandmother was actually a very shrewd person.

Ning Jia was not stupid. She immediately understood what the old lady meant and agreed, “Yes, don’t worry, Mother. Thank you for your advice.”
