Chapter 159
When Bai Yingyang heard Zhang Ehu say that he didn't follow Zhengde's instructions, he felt angry, but then he thought: "Tiger is an upright person, since he believes that there is nothing wrong, if the emperor's second brother wants to punish him, he can just punish him, so he doesn't like it. This kind of rhetoric that fabricates lies to avoid responsibility." Sighed, complained a few words, and then gave up.
Zhang Ehu said, "Where's Xiaoqiao?"
Bai Yingyang said: "I'm going to accompany Lian'er."
Zhang Ehu responded, and suddenly saw that his left cheek was flushed, and asked, "Why is your face so red?"
Bai Yingyang hurriedly muffled his hands and said, "It's nothing... I just sat on my side, and when I put my hands on my face for too long, it turned red."
Zhang Ehu nodded, wanted to drink tea, but found that the teapot was empty, and called out, "Fuqu."
It was Xiong Hong who entered in response, he took the teapot and went to the kitchen, brought a new pot of tea after a while, filled a cup for each of the two young masters, and then left.
Zhang Ehu asked, "Where did Fu Qu go?"
Bai Yingyang said: "Go home."
Zhang Ehu wondered: "Go home?"
Bai Yingyang said: "He is no longer a servant of our family, so it's strange to go home."
Seeing that his expression was calm, Zhang Ehu didn't ask if he didn't understand, and said, "I have something I want to discuss with you."
Bai Yingyang said: "What's the matter?"
Zhang Ehu said: "I want to tell my mother about Xiaoqiao'er's real identity as soon as possible."
Bai Yingyang was startled, and hurriedly said: "Xiao Qiao'er agreed?"
Zhang Ehu said: "I haven't told him yet, but now I just want to wait for him to come and discuss with you..."
It is true that Cao Cao is here, and Meng Cuiqiao just happened to be here. He smiled and said, "What are you talking about?"
Bai Yingyang smiled and said, "Tiger wants to confess your real identity to the empress."
Meng Cuiqiao was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "This... what are you going to say?"
Zhang Ehu pulled him to sit down, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, let's discuss it together, this matter needs a long-term plan."
Ever since the day Meng Cuiqiao married Zhang Ehu, she had often thought about this matter, but she never knew how to speak up.
Seeing his embarrassment, Bai Yingyang held his hand and said: "Let's not tell the empress for now, you should confess to Lian Er first, coax him well, and then tell the empress, then you don't have to worry about him."
When Meng Cuiqiao heard that he was going to confess to his son, he was more afraid than confessing to his mother-in-law, so he slurred his speech: "Should...should...should...how...should...say..."
Zhang Ehu said: "Just say you are his father."
Meng Cuiqiao said: "That's...that's it?" When he said this, his voice was trembling.
Seeing that he was incoherent in fright, Bai Yingyang was very amused and couldn't help laughing.
Meng Cuiqiao asked anxiously, "What are you laughing at?"
Bai Yingyang quickly put away her smile, and said to Zhang Ehu sternly, "No, it will scare Lian'er by saying that."
Zhang Ehu wondered, "What?"
Bai Yingyang said: "Xiao Qiao'er has always been pretending to be a woman, and Lian Er has always regarded him as a woman. If she suddenly said that Xiao Qiao'er is actually his father, Lian Er will be frightened and will be frightened. There is no need to rush now. Just take it slow.”
Meng Cuiqiao said anxiously: "Then what do you say?"
Bai Yingyang smiled and said: "I've thought about it, let's tell Lian Er first that the girl is a man, after a while, he will get used to it, and then tell him you are Daddy, so he won't be too panicked."
Hearing what he said was reasonable, Meng Cuiqiao clutched his chest, slightly relieved.
Zhang Ehu didn't understand, and asked, "What's the difference?"
Bai Yingyang said: "The difference is huge."
Zhang Ehu thought for a while, but still didn't understand: "I don't understand."
Bai Yingyang said: "Let me ask you, if your mother said: 'Tiger, I am actually your father, and your father is your mother.' What do you think?"
Zhang Ehu was dumbfounded, stunned for a while, and stammered: "This... this..."
And just when he was speechless in shock, someone outside the door made the same shock sound as him.
When Meng Cuiqiao heard this voice, it was as if a basin of cold water had been poured on someone's head. His whole body was icy cold, and he rushed to open the door in a hurry.
But I saw a small person standing outside the door, with his head raised, his eyes wide open, his eyes full of fear, this person was none other than Meng Lianpeng!
Meng Cuiqiao's heart was pounding, and she pulled him with a forced smile, "Lian'er..."
The moment her fingertips touched her skin, Meng Lianpeng shuddered suddenly, shrank back, took a few steps back, turned around and ran away.
Meng Cuiqiao quickly rushed to him, then hugged him and said, "Lian'er, listen to me!"
Meng Lianpeng was terrified, seeing Meng Cuiqiao as if seeing a ghost, struggling and shouting: "Let me go! Let me go!"
At this time, Zhang Ehu and Bai Yingyang also came out of the house, and when they saw this, they hurried to separate them.
As soon as Meng Lianpeng was free, she ran back to the room like a fly, closed the door tightly with a "bang", and bolted it.
Meng Cuiqiao hurriedly knocked on the door, begging: "Lian'er, open the door, I have something to say!"
Hanyu, Xionghong, Shuiyun, Shuizhi, Yunfang and other servants all surrounded him when they heard the sound, but they didn't know what happened.
Fortunately, Chen Biluo was in Meng Lianpeng's house, and through the door, he told Meng Cuiqiao to stay calm and go to comfort Meng Lianpeng.
Zhang Ehu dragged Meng Cuiqiao to rest on the lintel of a stool, and advised him not to worry too much.
Bai Yingyang spat: "Tiger, it's all your fault for speaking so loudly, this is great, let Lian'er listen!"
Zhang Ehu stared and said, "You were the one talking just now."
Bai Yingyang said: "How can I speak louder than you?"
Zhang Ehu said: "You talk like a sparrow, the whole house can hear you chirping."
Bai Yingyang was furious and wanted to argue, but seeing her brother sighing, she had to give up.
Another half day passed, until dusk, when Chen Biluo persuaded Meng Lianpeng out of the room.
Meng Lianpeng hid behind him, didn't say a word, and didn't even look at Meng Cuiqiao.
Meng Cuiqiao wanted to approach him, but he immediately pulled Chen Biluo back.
Zhang Ehu has a bad temper. Seeing that the little tiger refused to recognize his father, he wanted to bring him up to teach him a lesson, but he changed his mind: "Xiaoqiaoer was at fault for lying and deceiving others, and Lianer felt wronged." No wonder he loses his temper." So he said: "Little Tiger, it's your father's fault, you should be angry, if you are still not happy, go and beat him up."
Meng Lianpeng lowered her head and remained silent.
Bai Yingyang pulled his hand and said with a smile: "It's getting late, Lian'er, let's go eat first, if there is anything, we can talk about it when we are full."
Seeing that his son was cold and treated him like a stranger, Meng Cuiqiao felt very uncomfortable. He couldn't eat a bite while holding the rice bowl.
After the meal, Meng Lianpeng left without saying a word, and Chen Biluo immediately followed.
Mrs. Zhang wondered: "Why is Lian'er leaving in such a hurry?"
Bai Yingyang hurriedly laughed and said, "He is fascinated by reading, he must be in a hurry to go back to his room to read."
Meng Cuiqiao put down the bowl and chopsticks and said, "I'll go and see him."
In the end, just like before, Meng Lianpeng hid in the room, no matter how he knocked on the door, he just wouldn't open it.
After a long time, Chen Biluo came out of the room and said, "Lian'er has fallen asleep."
Meng Cuiqiao was extremely disappointed, sitting on the lintel of the stool, listless.
Chen Biluo stared at him for a long time, and asked doubtfully, "Are you actually a man, Lian'er's father?"
Meng Cuiqiao sighed and nodded slowly.
Chen Biluo looked clear and sighed: "My mother has become a father, no one can accept it."
At this time, Zhang Ehu and Bai Yingyang also came, and they were greatly surprised when they heard this.
Meng Cuiqiao was surprised: "What did you say?"
Chen Biluo entered Zhang's mansion and was arranged by Meng Cuiqiao to teach Meng Lianpeng to read. The two talked congenially and had a strong relationship. Meng Lianpeng confided to him what was in his heart. Ever since I was sensible, I have never seen my father. Although you once said that he is the son of your sworn brother, Lian Er has never believed it. She always thinks that you and others... gave birth to him, because she was unmarried and conceived first. I was afraid of getting a bad reputation when I came out, so I hid it from him."
Bai Yingyang suddenly realized, and clapped his hands and said: "No wonder Lian'er likes tiger as father so much, it turns out that he has long believed that Xiao Qiao'er is his mother, and married Tiger, so Tiger is naturally his father."
Meng Cuiqiao was flustered when he heard that, his usual wit and wit seemed to have disappeared, he paused and said, "If Lian'er hates me from now on...what should I do?"
Bai Yingyang comforted: "Lian'er suddenly found out the truth, and that's why he was shocked. He won't listen to what you say to him now. Let him rest well tonight. When he calms down tomorrow, he will explain it in detail." yes."
Meng Cuiqiao asked anxiously, "What if he gets angry?"
Zhang Ehu said disdainfully: "You have lied to him for ten years, why don't you allow him to be angry?"
Meng Cuiqiao was speechless.
Bai Yingyang said: "He will never be angry for a lifetime, you should give him a good gift, and ease it up slowly, this matter cannot be rushed."
Meng Cuiqiao sighed: "At the beginning, I thought he was young and there were many people in the Fuyin Pavilion. I was afraid that he would not be able to keep the secret, so I didn't tell him. But when he grows up, I was afraid that he would hate him because of it." I never spoke...he...he must hate me to death...well, if I had known this, I shouldn't have lied to him. "
Zhang Ehu snorted, "You keep everything secret, you're really asking for trouble!"
Bai Yingyang asked anxiously, "Why are you talking like that?"
Zhang Ehu said: "It doesn't matter what I say, he still thinks about how to make up for his mistakes, and it is serious to ask the little tiger to forgive him."
