It was very quiet near the Shui family ancestral hall. Shui Xuanming stood beside his mother and looked at the woman in the hall. Meng Furong had a beautiful face, rare in the world. After looking at it for a while, he felt a pain in his heart. If she was not recognized by the ancestral hall,
, leaving him from now on, how will he live? Shui Xuanming asked his ancestors in his heart, just let her stay. She is already an indispensable person in his life, and of course she is the Shui family.
Shui Xuanming's self-consoling logic will definitely not convince the Shui family ancestors. The key is Tang Yue, who can make the miracle happen.
She took the incense, knelt down respectfully three times, and inserted it into the incense burner. The people on the tablet were indeed the immortals from her maternal ancestors. At the top was the True God Xuanming who had blessed her and helped her many times. She knelt down and worshiped them.
Reasonable.
The whole process went very smoothly, the ancestral hall did not reject her, and both Mrs. Shui and Shui Xuanming were shocked.
Mrs. Shui was surprised that her son was so determined that he refused to let her check his bloodline. He thought the child was not his biological child. Since he was his biological child, why didn't he agree to the test? Is it really for self-esteem?
Shui Xuanming was also shocked. Did the ancestor of the Shui family hear his inner prayer, or did Rongmei have a way to verify it through the ancestral hall?
Tang Yue turned around and asked, "That's enough. Is there anything else you need me to do?"
Mrs. Shang came back to her senses and said, "No, I have neglected Miss Meng these days. It is difficult for a monk to have an heir. It is not easy for you to be pregnant. Go back and rest quickly. I will ask the servant to give you more things."
As a result, all her plans were shattered. The child in Meng Furong's belly was from the Shui family, and her status was also extraordinary. She could no longer be easily dealt with, and she needed to find another comprehensive solution.
Tang Yue found it funny. People's attitudes are so different from one thought to another. One thought is heaven, the other is hell.
"Thank you madam for taking care of me."
Shui Xuanming hurriedly came over to help her, "Thank you for your hard work, Sister Rong. I'll take you back."
Tang Yue almost reflexively shook off this man. She was not used to being so close to a stranger, especially when he was her grandfather's brother. This relationship was really exciting.
Mrs. Shang couldn't bear to see her son's hopeless appearance, out of sight and out of mind, "Then please send Miss Meng back quickly."
Mrs. Shang returned to her yard, where Shang Chunjiao was already waiting for her, "Aunt, how is it? The child is not my cousin's, right?"
Mrs. Shang looked at her anxious eyes and sighed, "The child is Xuanming."
Shang Chunjiao became even more anxious, "Aunt, no matter how good her background is, you won't let her be your daughter-in-law, right? What should I do?"
"Don't worry, she may not be able to be my daughter-in-law. After all, her pregnancy before marriage will be bad for her reputation." Mrs. Shang could only advise her niece in this way. This matter was no longer hers to decide.
Discuss with the family head and clan elders.
Shang Chunjiao seemed to be cruel, "Aunt, can you let her be your concubine? I will be your wife and I will get along well with her. We don't know if she is really a member of the Meng family. Even if she is, she is hidden."
The Shi family also doesn't want to have contact with the outside world. After she joins the Shui family, she will be cut off from the Meng family, which will be of no help to the Shui family."
Mrs. Shang hesitated. It was precisely because of this that she did not immediately agree to marry her son Meng Furong as his aunt.
Shang Chunjiao saw that her aunt was silent and felt funny, "Besides, I am your niece. I have served you for so many years, and it will be the same if I marry you. But Meng Furong will not be as sincere to you as I am, cousin."
What if she obeys her words and disobeys you all the time?"
These words hit Mrs. Shang's heart, "I really don't like Shui Xuanming always disobeying me for her sake."
Mrs. Shang is not a spiritual master and does not have a broad heart. At this time, she is like an ordinary possessive mother who does not want her son to be raised by another woman.
She and the head of the Shui family have never respected Shui Xuanming as an independent individual. They only think that he is their own child and should obey their own words.
"Auntie, as I become your daughter-in-law, I will advise my cousin to be more filial to you and obey your words." Shang Chunjiao continued to emphasize her own advantages and she would never lose to that woman.
Mrs. Shang patted her shoulder and decided to choose Shang Chunjiao as her daughter-in-law. "You have always been filial to me, and I believe you will be filial to me in the future."
Shang Chunjiao got the promise and calmed down a little, then asked: "Then we still invite Kong Yingzong to come?"
Mrs. Shang refused the matter, "I want to discuss this matter with the head of the family and the clan elders, and I cannot invite Zong Yingkong to come."
Originally, the two of them thought that Meng Furong's realm was too high to be dealt with. If she insisted on marrying Shui Xuanming, they did not have the strength to stop her, and they did not want to make too much noise and alarm the clan. They would blame their aunt, the mistress, for not doing things well.
On the contrary, it is not good.
We can only hire some monks who do dirty work to deal with him. Kong Yingzong obviously cultivates the righteous way, but he has many evil ways. He often collects spiritual stones and magic weapons to do shameful things for others, which is an excellent way to deal with Meng Furong.
Candidate.
There was a look of unwillingness in Shang Chunjiao's eyes. Her aunt changed her decision for the sake of the child in Meng Furong's belly. This was originally a good opportunity to get rid of her love rival.
But she couldn't disobey Mrs. Shang, so she could only say: "Listen to Auntie, I will do whatever you say."
After Tang Yue returned to her room that day, she did not see Shui Xuanming for two days. She pretended to be angry because she was forced to go to the ancestral hall for verification. In fact, she did not want to see her grandfather's brother being so attentive to her. She did not have such a habit.
Shui Xuanming coaxed her to get used to it. He found many ways to make her happy in the past two days. He bought a lot of beautiful magic jewelry and came to greet her in the morning, noon and evening.
Tang Yue held his forehead, maybe Meng Furong was annoyed, so she agreed to come to Shui's house. This is too miserable.
In addition to dealing with Shui Xuanming's attentiveness, she also paid attention to the actions of Mrs. Xia Shang and Shang Chunjiao. Not surprisingly, it was these two people who attracted Kong Yingzong.
The head of the Shui family is either busy cultivating or dealing with family affairs. His attitude towards his son's marriage is that he only needs to choose a good person for him. I'm afraid that to this day, he doesn't know that his son's sweetheart lives in the family.
The others have no conflict of interest with Meng Furong, so there is no need to spend a lot of money to invite Zong Yingkong.
Only Mrs. Shang was worried that she would be scolded by the head of the family if she failed to handle her son's marriage, and Shang Chunjiao was worried that she would not be able to become the mistress of the Shui family, so they would spend money to find someone to deal with them.
Fusion monks are not something that ordinary people can deal with. The higher the level of a monk, the more careful they are not to make enemies with others and avoid fighting. If they lose their lives and completely lose the chance of ascension, they will have been practicing for so many years in vain.
Only people like Kong Yingzong, who appear to be evil but not righteous, look for opportunities to hunt senior monks and spiritual beasts everywhere.
Tang Yue found that Shang Chunjiao was still serving Mrs. Shang diligently in the past two days, with the same attitude and no sign of anxiety, so he guessed that she had obtained Mrs. Shang's promise and could still be Shui Xuanming's wife.
This was an excellent matter, as it would allow her to leave the Shui family and hide in the mountains and forests.
Afraid that Shui Xuanming would stop her, she packed her things in the middle of the night and ran away. At this time, Shui Xuanming was about the same level of cultivation as her, so if he was really cruel enough to stop her, it would be a troublesome thing.
Tang Yue left him a letter: Xuanming, your mother has no intention of choosing me to be your wife, and I can’t possibly deign myself to be a concubine. I don’t want to serve the same husband with others, and I don’t want to cause you any trouble. Si Lai
I wanted to go, but I left quietly. Thank you for your care and tolerance during this period. Don't come looking for me. We will meet you when we are destined.
This letter was clever. If Shui Xuanming could not get the Shui family to agree to her becoming his wife, there would be no reason to take her back to the Shui family. In this way, her departure would not be heartless and unjust, and Shui Xuanming would not be disappointed by his love.
Hatred.
The next morning, Shui Xuanming brought her breakfast as usual, hoping that his sweetheart could reconcile with him and talk more.
When he arrived at the door, he realized that no one was in the room. He hurriedly opened the door and found that the building was empty. The room was neat and clean, as if no one had lived there. This was because Tang Yue had performed a cleaning spell before leaving.
Shui Xuanming saw the letter on the table and hurriedly opened it. The more he read, the more heartbroken he became. He had already known what his mother was going to do, and he was just thinking about convincing both parties that he could think of a perfect way.
In other words, his original plan was to deceive both sides, but he didn't expect that Meng Furong, who always had a higher eye than his own, would suddenly consider his mother's wishes and leave directly without a trace.
