Chapter 233: The Cannon Fodder Ex-wife in the Ancient Time Travel Novel 40
"What are you talking about? And you. What are you talking about? The Marquis from more than ten years ago is not dead. He is the Marquis back then, the old Marquis now! So you made a mistake. Master, please say something quickly?" Wen Qingyue said anxiously. It has come to this point, she will never back down.
Leng Mufeng calmed down and said politely, "Could you please inform Madam Hou?"
"Hey, he really is a man when he speaks. When he doesn't speak, I thought he was a woman. Humph, don't think you can pretend to be the Marquis just because you are a man!"
"Hey! Are you really serious? How can you meet the old lady of the Marquis? If you don't want to get the steamed buns, just leave. I'm very busy today and don't have time to deal with you. I still have to entertain guests here. Go, go, go!" The servant was impatient and started to drive people away. Then another guest came and the servant ignored them and hurried to entertain the guest.
The hero and heroine were left disheveled in the wind, feeling extremely embarrassed.
"Master! What should we do now?" Wen Qingyue pushed Leng Mufeng!
"Let's leave first. The mansion is very busy these two days. We'll come back after these two days." Leng Mufeng also knew that he probably wouldn't be able to see the old lady today.
"But sir, we don't have much money left, and the cost of living in the capital is too expensive." Wen Qingyue also knew how busy the Marquis' Mansion was right now, but their situation did not allow it.
At this time, there were more guests in the mansion, and Leng Mufeng was very familiar with these guests, but he couldn't remember their names. They should be one of Leng Mufeng's classmates!
"Alas, it's a pity that Afeng died at such a young age, otherwise life would be so much better now!"
"That's right. Alas, this is his fate. Let's not say a word. After all, this is a big day for the Marquis's Mansion."
"Come on, let's go in first!"
Leng Mufeng hurriedly walked up to them and said, "My two brothers, Afeng is not dead. The Marquis' Mansion made a mistake. I am Afeng, I am Leng Mufeng."
The two men were suddenly stopped by someone, and they braked suddenly and almost bumped into Leng Mufeng!
"Go, go, go, what a joke! You said you were Afeng, how is that possible? We grew up together, how are you like Afeng? Really, even dead people are impersonated."
"That's right. Even if you come here to recognize your relatives, you shouldn't pretend to be Afeng. That's too unreliable. The people in the Marquis' Mansion are really good-tempered. Even though you said that, they haven't driven you away yet." After the two of them said this, they glanced at the servant. If they wanted to ruin the reputation of their good friend, it depended on whether they agreed or not.
The servant quickly reacted and dragged the two away. When there were no customers, they were allowed to talk a few words. Now that they were disturbing the guests, the servant could not tolerate it anymore and dragged them far away. He warned them that if they did not leave, he would treat them as troublemakers and would have them beaten out with sticks.
Leng Mufeng and his wife knew that they would not be able to recognize their relatives today, so they returned to the inn dejectedly, facing seven pairs of expectant eyes. "Dad, Mom, are you here to take us back home? Will we have a good life in the future?"
Neither of them said anything. The younger ones were about to ask more questions when they were pulled away by the older ones. They could see that their parents were in a bad mood. They probably didn't succeed in recognizing their relatives today, so they didn't dare to ask more questions. The older ones took the younger ones back to their own rooms.
The couple began to discuss what to do when the three days were over and they went to recognize their relatives. What if the Marquis's Mansion did not recognize them? After discussing it over and over again, they could not find a better way. They both sighed. It was as if a large piece of gold appeared in front of them, and they felt powerless even if they used all their strength to carry it.
But the most urgent thing is to make more money in these two days! Otherwise, even the cheapest inn can't be accommodated now. Living on the street is a small matter, and starving to death is a big matter.
The two of them went back to their old business of selling menus. Fortunately, the heroine had such a skill, otherwise the family would have lived an even more miserable life.
Three days later, the two tried various ways to recognize each other, but they couldn't even get to the door of the mansion. The chats of the servants in the mansion were heard by the guards around the Marquis, who told him as a joke.
The Marquis was shocked when he heard this. His nominal father, the man who caused their mother's tragic death, had come to Beijing? Thinking of this, he quickly called on his other two brothers, and the three of them discussed it together in whispers.
In less than two days, he found out where Leng Mufeng lived, when he came, what he did these days, what he did for a living, how many children he had, what he looked like, etc.
But when the three brothers got the portraits of the two people, they spat out a mouthful of tea. "This, this, this, these two people don't look like the two people who appeared in their dreams."
"There's nothing wrong with this woman, but she's much older and thinner than the one in my dream!"
"Then what's going on with this marquis? Has he been replaced? Don't you think so? This person seems out of place. There's an indescribable weirdness." The third brother stared at the portrait, and the other two also gathered together to look at it carefully and analyze it!
"His eyebrows and eyes are a little bit like the Marquis, but the whole appearance feels different." At this time, an old woman passed by the gate. Several people took a look and instantly understood what was wrong.
"This person feels a bit feminine. The marquis in my dream was elegant and graceful. Although he suffered for a few years, his temperament and image were still good. How come he became like this after just a few years?"
But now, no matter whether they knew him or not, no one would think that he was the Marquis, and they would definitely not be able to recognize him as their relative. They just had to observe secretly and watch the show. If they couldn't stand it, they would occasionally do something tricky.
The three brothers discussed it over and over again, and all agreed that their mother must have done something behind the scenes to cause all this. Otherwise, it would be impossible for her to face the enemies who killed them in their previous life and let them live well without doing anything.
But they couldn't figure out how their mother did it no matter how hard they tried. Their mother instantly became taller in their eyes at this moment.
They also discovered a fact, that is, they had seven children, but no son. Several people thought that this should not be a coincidence!
Thinking about it this way, their mother is simply too amazing, too admirable, isn't she? But since their mother is so smart, they can't be much worse, so they can just use the family of the Marquis in their previous life to practice!
Xia Xiaoxiao sneezed continuously in the room. She didn't know that her status in the hearts of those bad boys was constantly rising.
With the secret joining of these guys, Leng Mufeng's work of finding his relatives became more and more difficult! They tried all kinds of ways, looking for old friends, looking for old servants, and secretly going to see the son they had never met, but all of these were useless. There was even a feeling of being far away. Both of them felt deeply frustrated.
Leng Mufeng doesn't look like the former marquis, and there is no evidence to prove it. These two points alone make the word "recognize" like a mountain pressing down on them, and they can't climb over it no matter how hard they try.
They also heard that their younger sister had married into the Prince's Mansion, so they went to the Prince's Mansion to look for the Third Young Master's wife. They thought their younger sister should be able to recognize her brother, but they were wrong. They couldn't see their younger sister at all, and they were almost beaten.
This also made them thoroughly understand how big the gap is between ordinary people and the powerful. Without money, power, and influence, it is difficult to even meet them.
The inn was no longer affordable for them. With so many people eating, drinking, defecating and urinating in the capital, it was really not something that ordinary people could afford.
They couldn't afford to live there, but they were unwilling to go back! The family could only rent a cheap two-room house, while making money and looking for another opportunity to meet their relatives!
Xia Xiaoxiao didn't know about this at first, but later she found out that her three sons were sneaking around! She thought these brats were doing something illegal and hiding it from her.
After using her mental power to take a look, she found that the male and female protagonists had returned. Moreover, they had been back for a while, and were being played around by the third son. Xia Xiaoxiao also used teleportation to take a look at night, and saw Leng Mufeng, who had changed beyond recognition, and twitched her lips.
It seemed that without her intervention, Leng Mufeng would never be able to recognize her as a relative in this life, and the heroine gave her the same feeling as the old woman in her yard! What was also completely different from the previous life was that the two had seven children. No wonder the heroine became like this.
Well, she just watched quietly. Death at this time was a relief for them. In this case, let the male and female protagonists see that they would never be able to enter the Marquis' Mansion. What's more, if the three sons intervened, she would have nothing to do with it.
At the end of the year, the three sons got married one after another, and Xia Xiaoxiao became the old lady this time. After the youngest son got married, Xia Xiaoxiao immediately divided the family.
The mansions had been arranged for them long ago, not far away. And they each had their own property, and the number one scholar had his own mansion, so there was no need to worry about having no place to live. They could move if they wanted to, or not, and they could make all their own arrangements. She was going to be free and easy.
And warned them not to be careless with Leng Mufeng, and they must keep a close eye on him! After all, the male and female protagonists have the aura and luck of the male and female protagonists, and she was afraid that the jade bottle would be damaged by the rat. Seeing that her sons listened carefully, she completely left it alone.
Xia Xiaoxiao nominally went to the farm, but in fact she had already followed Prince Jin to his fiefdom! The three sons knew it very well and supported their mother very much. They were already very satisfied that their mother could accompany them until they got married!
His Royal Highness Prince Jin was also very happy to leave the capital. He didn't know what the late emperor said to the current emperor before he died. Anyway, in the three years after the emperor ascended the throne, he used his uncle like a brick to fight wars, rescue disasters, build roads and dams, investigate cases, and investigate corrupt officials... He was simply a brick of the royal family, and he was moved wherever he was needed.
