Transmigration: The Evil Mother-In-Law Is Actually Innocent!-Chapter 1166: It’s over, Grandpa is going to break my legs

Chapter 1166: Chapter 1166: It’s over, Grandpa is going to break my legs

Dong Yiyi felt a bit unnatural, "No, I know you guys are busy, so I haven’t been visiting. I made a point to come today."

Lady Li was still straightforward, but not as simplistic as before. Remembering the recent gossip she had heard and observing Dong Yiyi, she caught the main point, "Is it because of the rumors, big sister?"

She had nothing to say about her sister and brother-in-law’s decision; it was the Jiang family’s business and even their parents didn’t interfere!

But indeed, the Jiang family had married above their station, and it was normal for there to be sour words in the village. With the Zhou family’s change of status, rumors had also increased, and she had heard quite a few.

Dong Yiyi grew even more awkward, "I, I didn’t mean anything else."

Lady Li understood—it was just a lack of confidence. She had gone through it herself, having a supportive mother-in-law and a loving husband which helped her gradually gain confidence. She thought for a moment and said, "My Xue Mei is very committed to her promises; she doesn’t go back on her words."

Lady Li admired Xue Mei, who, despite the vast differences between her and Xue Han, had never felt discontent. She lived comfortably, her daily life full of zest.

Nowadays, Xue Mei and her brother-in-law often went out, either to the fields or just strolling around, living a carefree life.

Dong Yiyi blushed, "Thank you."

Lady Li blinked, her plump hand gesturing as she whispered to Dong Yiyi, "In the Jiang family, what my sister Xue Mei says goes; you don’t need to worry."

Dong Yiyi stared at Lady Li, sensing the goodwill.

Lady Li thought to add, "Xue Mei is easy to talk to, but she has her principles. She values character most."

When Dong Yiyi left the Zhou family’s grand mansion, she felt really bewildered. The first time she met Lady Li, she looked down upon her as a crude woman. Afterwards, she didn’t respect Lady Li much, until the sudden changes in the Jiang family, but deep down, she still carried some princess-like arrogance.

Yet today, Lady Li thoroughly shattered her perceptions and earned her respect. Despite many changes in status, Lady Li remained true to her core—how many could achieve that?

In the capital, the Academy was on break, and Mingyun followed his Uncle to Uncle Wu’s house. Uncle Wu also had a day off today. He had many questions to ask the Top scorer, knowing how capable Uncle Wu was since observing his rapid growth since childhood. Grandfather also highly regarded Uncle Wu.

Chang Xhong, after having his questions answered, saw Brother Wu reading and asked quietly, "What exactly is the secret between Ming Teng and Ming Rui?"

Mingyun, organizing his notes, smiled and asked, "Uncle, are you very concerned?"

Chang Xhong nodded, "I am worried that Ming Teng might be led astray. He is the one most vulnerable to temptation, and our parents said our family would face many temptations in the future, and we must keep to our principles."

Wu Ming, listening in, couldn’t help but burst out laughing, "Your uncle really worries too much over his nephew."

Chang Xhong spread his hands, "What can I do? Only Ming Teng is that straightforward in our family."

Mingyun, eyes full of mirth, said, "Ran Xun said he’d take Ming Teng to see a bit of the world."

Upon thinking it over, Chang Xhong said, "Ran Xun is very shrewd. There shouldn’t be a problem."

Ran Xun took Ming Teng and Ming Rui onto a small boat, then onto a larger ship. Ming Teng frowned, "Is this what you meant by seeing the world?"

Well look what he saw—quite a number of wastrels.

Ran Xun pulled Ming Teng who was trying to leave, "That’s why I said to come and see the world. A new friend of mine got the invitation with difficulty. They said we could see something precious today on the boat, let’s walk around and find a place to sit." freēwēbnovel.com

Ming Rui felt uneasy, chills running down his spine, "Second brother, let’s go back!"

Ming Teng also rose to leave, but Ran Xun clutched him tightly. Meanwhile, more boats arrived, along with some foreigners.

The two young boys had no idea that as soon as they boarded the ship, Rong Enqing saw them. To avoid drawing Gu Ren’s attention, he hardly looked again, but he took note and planned to report back later.

Another two boats arrived, and Prince Qi came. He was dressed very plainly today, with guards following him. First, he surveyed the surroundings, noticed Rong Enqing, and quickly shifted his gaze, then saw—and recognized? These kids seem familiar!

A quarter of an hour later, nobody else came aboard. Someone came up to host—it indeed was an auction, with various rare items from different countries brought up one after another.

Ming Rui exhaled, "So it’s an auction, indeed a way to gain experience."

But after the auction ended, something was off—the arrival of a group of dancing girls.

Ming Rui, "!!"

He thought it was over!

Ming Teng, "!!"

Ah, how could they wear so little, and, and throw their scarves!

Ran Xun’s eyes were wide open as he muttered, "Really an eye-opener, certainly an eye-opener."

A wastrel friend of Ran Xun’s laughed loudly, "This is nothing yet, wait for the wine feeding. That’s real eye-opening. What do you think, brother? I got these invitations just for you."

Ran Xun howled in pain, turned his head, and saw the murderous look in Ming Teng and Ming Rui’s eyes. Ran Xun didn’t feel the pain anymore.

Ming Teng’s eyes were red with anger, "If my legs get broken because of this, I’ll break your legs. Ah, you have ruined me today, totally ruined me."

Ming Rui’s face was downcast, his eyes not daring to look ahead, wanting to cry. His father could handle social obligations, but he definitely wouldn’t be happy with him being in such a place. He kept muttering, "It’s over, all over."

The wastrel friend beside Ran Xun stared in disbelief, "Is it really that serious?"

Ran Xun’s back was also sweating, "It is, it is."

He felt like it was over for him too!

Prince Qi was here for fun, his Princess Consort being as fearsome as a tigress back home. He dared not bring someone back to the palace or else it would create utter chaos; after a few such incidents, he too was scared.

Today, his mind wasn’t on beauties but on remembering who the two familiar children were. Seeing the two kids looking like they were about to die, he laughed out loud.

Rong Enqing, "..."

He also wanted to笑, but he held back. Now these kids knew fear; what were they doing earlier? Their uncle would be furious.

At the Ministry of Revenue, Zhou Shuren kept sneezing incessantly, wondering who kept mentioning him today, as he sneezed endlessly.

And at Marquis Rong’s Residence, Yao Yao, looking at the evidence she had found, touched her stomach. There was no rush; she needed to nurture herself a bit longer. For now, the baby was the most important thing.
