Ever since the Third Lord, Meng Changbo, married his third wife, his relatives and friends have come to celebrate the wedding. Since there is no mistress of the house currently, and his second daughter, Meng Jinyu, is too young to handle it, only the old matriarch, Meng Lao Fu Ren, personally manages the banquet.

Today, Yongchang Bo's mansion is filled with joy and celebration. The gloom of last September seems to have never existed.

Meng Dongyuan, the groom, was very busy. Mrs. Meng Lao, his grandmother, energetically greeted the female guests who came to drink wedding wine. Meng Jinyu also helped greet female guests of her age. Meng Chengzhang and Meng Chengxing, along with the steward from the uncle's mansion, were greeting the male guests.

The father wants to remarry, and the mother wants to divorce, these two major events are things that children cannot stop. Meng Jin Yao had no ripples in her heart. When she went to the Meng family with Gu Jing Xi for the wedding banquet, many guests had already arrived at the Meng family, it was very lively.

The couple first went to see their elders.

When Old Madam Meng saw the couple, she let out a sigh of relief in her heart. Although her eldest granddaughter was a white-eyed wolf, she could still put on a show at critical moments. Since the couple had shown up for this occasion, it added to the face of the Meng family. Earlier, some ladies had inquired about whether they were present. When they didn't see them, she felt anxious.

"The granddaughter greets her grandmother."

The grandson greeted his grandmother.

In front of all the guests, Meng Jinyao and her husband also gave Mrs. Meng Lao face, as if there had never been any conflict between them and their grandchildren.

Mrs. Meng, with a pleasant expression, said: “No need for formalities, please sit down and talk.”

Upon learning that their elder sister and brother-in-law had arrived, both Meng Chengzhang and Meng Chengxing went to see them.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Gu Jingxi was about to leave the back garden and go to the front yard to join the other male guests.

“Chengxing, you take good care of your sister-in-law.”

Having said that, Old Madam Meng cast a meaningful look at her favorite grandson. With the eldest son-in-law's status, if the younger grandson could get closer to him, he would also benefit from his guidance in the future.

Meng Chengxing understood his grandmother's meaning, but he felt pressure facing his brother-in-law and didn't dare to get close. Every time they met, he kept his distance out of respect.

On the other hand, Meng Chengzhang handled it with ease and calmness. Gu Jingxi also clearly showed a more gentle attitude towards Meng Chengzhang.

The back garden is full of female relatives, but today the highest-ranking guests are Meng Jin Yao and her husband. Before, when visiting the Meng family, they didn't really pay attention to Meng Jin Yao and were mostly friendly towards Meng Jin Yu. Now, everyone is surrounding Meng Jin Yao talking to her.

Meng Jinyu had known since last September's incident that she was not welcomed. Because of her mother, people looked at her with prejudice, and her younger brother Meng Chenxing was far less affected. For the first time, she hated that she wasn't a boy.

By the time Meng Jinyáo had sent all the guests away, Meng Jin'yu walked up to her slowly and asked in a low voice, "Big sister, you seem very pleased"

Meng Jin Yao, taken aback by the statement, looked up at her with a puzzled expression. She couldn't figure out what kind of nonsense she was spouting this time. With a nonchalant tone, she replied, "If Second Sister thinks so, then that's fine."

Meng Jin Yu let out a mocking laugh and said disdainfully, "You have achieved this only because of men. What's there to be proud of Just wait until you're old and past your prime, your brother-in-law probably won't even glance at you. My father loved my mother very much at first, but when my mother grew older and less attractive, his heart was stolen by a young and beautiful concubine."

Upon hearing this, Meng Jin Yao nonchalantly smiled and said, "Second sister, life is short, cherish the present moment. It's most important to live well now. Who knows what will happen in the future At least I can still rely on my looks to please your brother-in-law for now, right"

Meng Jinyu mocked: "Serving people with beauty can't last forever."

Meng Jinyo wasn't annoyed, and calmly replied: "Second younger sister has always been ambitious since she was young, and she is also very capable. She can live a good life relying on her own abilities. Just don't be like me, relying on my looks to please people."

Meng Jin's complexion changed slightly: "You..."

Meng Jinyao didn't pay her any more attention and said to the maids beside her, "Qingqiu, Ningdong, I'm tired. Let's go to that pavilion over there for a rest."

Ning Dong frowned: "Madam, the second young lady's words are too harsh. The Marquis doesn't only like your face."

Meng Jin Yao nonchalantly replied, "She believes the truth is as she perceives it. Talking to her about this would be futile. There's no need to argue with her, as words are wasted. Besides, the timing isn't right today. It wouldn't be wise to argue with her and disrupt the wedding of our father. I couldn't bear the charge of being unfilial."

-

As dusk fell, the sound of revelry and drums filled the air. It was the groom returning with his bride.

The auspicious time is upon us, prepare for the wedding ceremony. All guests, please get ready to witness the union.

Before long, everyone saw Meng Dongyuan with a beaming smile and a joyful expression, along with his bride, each holding one end of a red silk cloth. They walked slowly into the hall at an unhurried pace.

With a cry of "The auspicious time has arrived" from the bridesmaid, the wedding banquet reached its climax.

"One bow to heaven and earth!"

"Greetings to the ancestral hall!"

"Cheers to the happy couple!"

The ceremony is complete, sending into the bridal chamber!

Amidst cheers and congratulations, the bride and groom were sent back to their new home. The male guests stopped at the backyard, but the female guests were allowed to follow into the bridal suite. Everyone was curious about what the bride looked like and followed to have a look. Meng Jinyang's two sisters also went along.

There are many people in the new house, and it's very lively.

Meng Dongyuan was getting married for the third time, so she knew the process. But still, she listened to the matchmaker's instructions and acted step by step according to the rules.

When it came to the unveiling of the bride's face, everyone held their breath in anticipation. Meng Dong gracefully picked up a scale beam tied with red silk from a tray and slowly lifted the crimson veil covering the bride's face. Beneath it was a beautiful visage.

Although Dong is only twenty-five this year, she looks very good. She has a oval face, willow eyebrows, phoenix eyes, peach cheeks and cherry lips. Her skin is fair, and she no longer has the greenness of a young girl but instead possesses the mature charm of a married woman. She also has a gentle temperament and an air of scholarly refinement.

As a second-time bride, Dong shi did not have the shyness of a young newlywed. She was generous and graceful. When she slightly lifted her head to look at her new husband, the corners of her mouth curved upwards, and there was a mature charm in her eyes and eyebrows.

Meng Dongyuan looked directly at her, his newly acquired concubine in the backyard was indeed young and beautiful, but he always felt something was missing. Now, looking at his new bride, he understood what was lacking in the young concubine.

Meng Jin Yao saw Dong Shi's beauty and was not surprised. After all, she had expected Dong Shi to be beautiful. Otherwise, her father would not have married Dong Shi, a woman who had already been married once. Looking at her father's expression, he seemed very satisfied with Dong Shi.

Meng Jinyu was seeing her stepmother for the first time. Seeing her stepmother's appearance, and then her father's reaction, her heart skipped a beat, sinking to the bottom. A sense of crisis arose, and she instinctively glanced at Meng Jin Yao standing beside her.

Her stepmother could captivate her father's heart, and this stepmother seemed to resemble Meng Jinyao's biological mother in temperament and appearance. They were both gentle beauties with an aura of scholarship. She had seen a portrait of Meng Jinyao's biological mother at Meng Jinyao's place. The painting was very lifelike, which Meng Jinyao cherished dearly. However, it was eventually destroyed by her own hand.amily, come see her tomorrow.Grandma Qiao seemed a little surprised.
