After rebirth, I became a treacherous minister Black Moonlight

Chapter 637 Meeting the Family
Meng family.

Old Master Meng was in the room, listening to his son Meng Tianlan reporting the accounts.

"That's all, Dad, take a look."

After Meng Tianlan finished his narration, he handed the account book respectfully to Mr. Meng.

Mr. Meng took it with a look of disgust, frowned and began to read it carefully.

Ever since Meng Tianlan, the youngest son, married Meng Qianqian to the Grand Commander in the capital, he has completely angered Grandpa Meng.

Old Master Meng denounced him for acting on his own initiative, pushing his niece from one fire pit to another, and doing it without telling his family.

Not only was he locked up and severely punished, but he was also confined to his room for a month.

If his two daughters-in-law had not tried their best to plead for him, Mr. Meng would have even wanted to kill his own relatives for the sake of justice.

Meng Tianlan knew he was in the wrong, so he didn't dare to argue with the old man and had to keep his tail between his legs.

It had been dormant for a long time. A while ago, something went wrong in one of the Meng family's shops, which led to serious losses and its reputation plummeted.

Meng Tianlan volunteered himself and took over the shop and revitalized it despite the pressure from the whole family.

He came today with confidence.

As expected, Mr. Meng remained silent after reading the account book.

Meng Tianlan stole a glance at his father, and the weight of the worry in his heart fell away.

"Dad, this is just the beginning. Business will be more prosperous in the future."

He assured, patting his chest.

Mr. Meng placed the account book on the table.

Meng Tianlan asked with a smile: "Dad, you see, I have to go to the shop every day to take care of the business. It's very tiring. Otherwise, the house in Changliu Lane..."

He has been coveting it for a long time.

We must win today!
The house is secondary. The main thing is that as long as the old man says this, it means that he has completely gained his dignity in the Meng family, and the old man has put the past of his random matchmaking.

Mr. Meng's expression showed signs of softening.

Meng Tianlan's eyes lit up with excitement.

However, at this moment, a servant came from outside the door and reported: "Old Master! Old Master!"

Meng Tianlan was quite dissatisfied when his good thing was interrupted: "Why are you so flustered? Didn't you see that the old man was talking to me?"

The servant said excitedly: "Third Master, Old Master, the Third Miss is back!"

Both father and son were shocked.

Meng Tianlan walked forward quickly, stared at the boy and asked, "Who did you say is back?"

The servant smiled and said, "Miss Third!"

The Meng family has three branches, each with a daughter. The only one who can be called the third lady is Meng Qianqian from the eldest branch.

Meng Tianlan said in disbelief: "No way...Qianqian went back to Youzhou? Where is she?"

The servant said, "In the flower hall!"

Mr. Meng held the account book tightly.

Meng Tianlan no longer cared about the house at this moment, and rushed out without thinking.

When he arrived at the flower hall, he really saw Meng Qianqian, whom he hadn't seen for many days.

Meng Qianqian wore a blue corseted silk skirt and a plain white gauze dress with cloud patterns. Her black hair was tied up lightly and pinned with a pair of royal blue and kingfisher hairpins. She looked elegant and refined, with a natural air of nobility.

It has been a year since we last saw each other in the capital.

Meng Tianlan only felt that the little niece in front of him had grown up a little, and was no longer like the crying and greedy little girl in his memory.

"flourishing……"

He spoke in a daze.

Meng Qianqian raised her head, her eyes lit up, and she stood up and called out, "Third Uncle."

I thought it would be unfamiliar.

But the sense of familiarity engraved in my bones gradually awakened after I stepped into the Meng family mansion.

No matter how much she missed her previous life, she had to admit that after her rebirth she was Meng Qianqian.

She had already merged with the fate of this body. Meng Tianlan walked up to her, held her shoulders and looked her up and down: "Aren't you in the capital? Why did you come all the way back to Youzhou? Let Uncle San take a look, have you lost weight?"

Meng Qianqian smiled and said, "I miss home, so I came back to visit. Third Uncle has to take good care of me."

There is so much to say about the trip to Wushan and Liang State.

Meng Tianlan nodded excitedly: "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back! I'm better than when I was in the capital."

This is natural.

When Meng Tianlan went to the capital, she had just returned triumphantly from the border and was thin from the long journey.

Now that she was pregnant, the caravan moved slowly from Liang State to Youzhou. She ate and drank a lot, feeling very comfortable. Her face became round.

"You came back alone?"

Meng Tianlan asked.

"Third Master, there are still servants here!"

Banxia came in carrying a bag, followed by Tan'er who was eating candied haws.

Tan Er called out sweetly, "Third Uncle!"

Meng Tianlan smiled and said, "It's Tan'er!"

Tan Er tilted her head: "Third Uncle, do you remember?"

Meng Tianlan said: "Of course I remember, candied haws and braised pork, right? I'll ask the kitchen to stew them for you later!"

Tan'er's little arms fluttered behind her: "Third Uncle is the best!"

Meng Tianlan laughed heartily: "Grown taller!"

Tan Er giggled and said, "Yes!"

Meng Tianlan liked this quirky little girl very much, and he also knew that she was not an ordinary maid. Meng Qianqian treated her as a younger sister, so he never acted like a master when treating Tan'er.

He looked at Banxia again: "Banxia, ​​where is Nanny Li?"

Banxia said, "Madame Li is in the capital."

Meng Tianlan wondered: "She's not with you?"

Banxia looked at Meng Qianqian, not knowing how to answer.

Meng Qianqian said: "Uncle San, let's talk about this later."

"Yes, yes, you must be exhausted after traveling such a long distance! Hey, where is my nephew-in-law?"

Meng Tianlan looked around.

He hadn't seen Lu Yuan since he entered the hall. "He didn't go home with you, did he?"

As he spoke, his expression became serious. "Qianqian, tell your uncle the truth. Did he bully you? Oh, it's all your fault. He was blinded by greed and decided your marriage hastily after drinking a jar of wine..."

He didn't blame himself when the old man punished him.

He did not regret it when his second brother taught him a lesson.

But when he found out that his beloved niece might have been wronged in the Governor's Mansion, he felt so regretful and felt extremely guilty!

Meng Qianqian curled her lips and said, "Lu Yuan went to visit his grandfather."

"I just came from the old man's place, I didn't run into anyone else..."

Meng Tianlan slapped his thigh, "Oh! I took a shortcut! Is he crazy? If he goes to see the old man himself, isn't he afraid of being beaten by the old man? The old man doesn't care if he is a great governor of the imperial court!"

"Wait, he's not going to do anything to the old man in a rage, is he?"

Meng Tianlan was extremely anxious.

On one side is the old man who is dissatisfied with this marriage, and on the other side is the governor who holds the power of life and death.

The two of them are on the verge of a fight, and if anything goes wrong there could be a river of blood!

"I have to go check it out!"

He walked a few steps, thought of something, and told Meng Qianqian, "Qianqian, you should get out of the way first. The old man is angry, and he might even vent his anger on you... I'll go call your third and second aunts over."

Meng Qianqian did not refuse.

Meng Tianlan asked his servants to inform the third wife Yan and the second wife Ji, while he quickly rushed to the old man's yard.

He was afraid it was too late, so the old and the young started working together.
