Cai Ruomeng took a sip of her tea. He showed the item in his hand to Lady Cai.

Madame Cai's eyes lit up all of a sudden.

"Mu Er." "You …"

Cai Ruomu cast a glance at the maidservants around her.

Mrs. Cai was sitting upright. He said to all the maidservants, "All of you leave first and guard outside properly. No one is allowed to approach without my permission."

The two maidservants' hearts skipped a beat, but they still quickly replied, "Yes."

The corners of Niu Mei's lips curled up into a cold smile.

The door closed.

"Ai, what happened? It's rare to see a lady with so much weight."

Niu Mei had a faint smile on her face. "Very soon, that ugly maid will be in trouble."

The two of them looked at the weird smile on Niu Mei's face. He couldn't help but shiver.

They couldn't help but take two steps back. Normally, they seemed to be on good terms with that little girl, but now that she was in trouble, they were actually gloating at her misfortune.

The two of them looked at each other. In each other's eyes, they saw the meaning of understanding.

Mrs. Cai held the three sesame seeds in her hand in shock. He took it. He opened his eyes wide and said in disbelief, "This, this —"

"Three sesame seeds." Cai Ruo Mu took a sip of water and said with certainty, but her expression was still as indifferent as before.

Madame Cai was surprised for a long time. The three stalks of sesame seeds in her hands didn't seem real. She then used her strange voice to say, "This was given to you by Madam Cai. She approves of you."

After hearing her strange voice, Cai Ruo Mu knew that she was too agitated to act like this, but she still calmly said, "Mother, come over and sit down."

Lady Cai saw that her daughter didn't seem excited at all. On the contrary, she had a serious and serious expression on her face. His excited heart had also sunk. Sitting at the side, he asked with concern, "Mu Er, are you alright?"

Cai Ruomen put down the warm hand, took a deep breath and said, "This was prepared by Lady Cai."

Lady Cai's face was once again covered in a smile. "Then that's what I'm giving you." "She's your servant, maybe she was too embarrassed to give it to you, so she gave it to your servant, and asked her to give it to you!"

Cai Ruomeng shook her head, "It's not like that!"

"What happened? What happened in the Prince's Mansion these two days?"

"I remember that day when we went there, Second Young Master was very strange and treated me very well. He was even deliberately mocking her. Then on that day they made pastries, too. The madame was also praising him. At first, the madame purposely left Xiuzhu in the dark, but later on, even though she was also rewarded, I still felt that something was wrong. Madam Wang's mind was very deep, but on the surface, she was observing everyone's expressions and how they treated each other well. Afterwards, the madame asked the maidservant to return first. The Second Young Master followed him out. Later on, when I went back, the maidservants, the mandarin duck and Niu Mei, told me that Xiaoyi had disappeared. Then we all went to look for it. But when they found the grove, they heard someone fall into the river. After they went ashore, it turned out to be the second young master and the young girl. The Second Young Master held her tightly in his arms before taking her to her own residence. I asked Niu Mei to look into it when she wasn't back for the entire night, but there were many maidservants who told me so. Weichi lived in Second Young Master's room. He even hired a doctor and started a fire.

I was going to teach her a lesson the next day, but she didn't come back until noon. Not long after he returned, he was about to teach her a lesson when Eldest Young Master actually came. He even put his arm around her shoulders and said that they had been strolling in the garden all morning and even met Eldest Young Mistress.

It continued on. Cai Ruomeng wanted to tell him about the treatment she had received in the Prince's Mansion. However, he was afraid that his mother would say something ridiculous, so he decided to just forget it.

When we left." He met the two generals outside. The Second Young Master actually kissed me in public. Let those people check us out and say I'm not out of line yet. And when we were going, we wanted to check our palanquin as well. Fortunately, Second Young Master arrived in time. Then we came back. When I was packing up my things and told Xiujia to take my leave, Lady Wang gave me these three sesame seeds. Actually, I don't quite understand it. If you want to give it to me, then in the two days I've been in the mansion, Lady Wang has time to give it to me. If you want to give it to me, then Lady Wang has time to give it to me.

Cai Ruo Mu said a lot of things. Even he himself was feeling thirsty.

Madam Cai couldn't help but frown. "Looks like there's something strange about this."

"Mother, tell me, could it be that benevolence has fallen in love with Weichi?!" Cai Ruomeng grabbed Lady Cai's arm and said nervously.

"Hehe! Little girl, you should know that you're nervous." She patted her hands, "You don't have to be so nervous. Men are the same. It's impossible to say that you like that ugly girl, so you won't be scared awake."

Cai Ruomo still didn't feel reassured, but there was something odd about it. He felt that not only was the second young master different from the others, but even the eldest young master was different from Xiaoyi.

Lady Cai smiled. "Mu Er, you don't have to worry at all. You'll be married soon enough. It's not easy staying here and you can't give up. Also, it's normal for a man to have three wives." Don't believe in love, that's ridiculous. Since Lady Wang likes Xiajia so much, and Eldest Young Master and Second Young Master are 'concerned' with her as well, then why don't we go with the flow? Leave that maid by your side, after you marry. He would be a concubine for the Second Young Master. It didn't matter if he was the eldest young master's concubine. The most important thing was for him to sit in the position of the second young mistress of the Wang family. The most important thing was for that servant girl to hold her tightly in her hands and let her listen to you. This way, it won't threaten your position in the future. "It would instead become an aid to us."

Cai Ruomeng pursed her lips.

Lady Cai took her hand and said, "Mu'er, I know it's very cruel to speak to you like this, but you must understand that wealth, status, power, these things are many times better than the love of nothingness. It's fine if love can last for a long time, but men like to be new and resent. When you grow old one day. When better people appear around him, what do you think you have left, what do you have left? If you were to marry an ordinary person, you wouldn't even have the slightest bit of respect. When he didn't have money, he didn't have the grace or the heart to love you. He only had the most primitive desires. If he was really poor to such an extent, it was not impossible for him to sell his wife to a brothel or to become a stepping stone for him. If you were rich, at the very least, he would care so much about relationships that he wouldn't do anything to you. As long as everyone is at peace, you have two girls and one son. Your life is different. This is also why I have let you go to the prince's mansion so early in the year and let you curry favor with the Wang family every day. Even if they don't like you that much, their habits are very scary, and if you show up often, even if you hate them, you have a place in their hearts. If you disappear one day, you won't be used to it. Do you understand "?

Cai Ruomeng let go of her hand, her smile unnatural. "Mother, your daughter knows you're trying to persuade me, but you can't say such things. You're scaring me!" I know that no money is inferior, but it's not as terrible as my mother's life. "

Mrs. Cai knew she would say so, but in order for her to understand that she was on the right path and that she was even right, she had to be ruthless and step forward to take out the slip of paper from the box.

Cai Ruomeng opened the note, puzzled. Ye Zichen jumped up in shock when he saw the message.

Cai Ruomeng found it hard to believe. How could there be such a person in the world?

Lady Cai smiled faintly. "There are many such people in the world. If you don't choose your own life, your life will be the same. "

"No, I won't." Cai Ruomen picked up the slip of paper that she had thrown away.

It read: In order to survive, Master Liu gave his wife and Liu Wan'er, who was a few months older, as playthings to the Prime Minister. He only wanted to play with them, then he would be given an official and half position.

That Old Master Liu and his father were of the same generation. His father was quarreled and had gone out of the city, while that Old Master Liu did not have such a good life and was sent to the border. In order to return to the capital, he had to bring his wife, Liu Wan'er, who was the same age as him, to the Prime Minister's Estate.

They used to play together when she was young. How could this be?

However, he still couldn't believe it. "Mother, this is just a special item. Not everyone would be robbed of their family property. Normally, other people's daughters wouldn't be like this either."

Mrs. Cai smiled faintly. She knew her daughter was like this. She didn't give her heart up at once. She would forever remain skeptical and unable to make a move.

What he needed to do now was to let her understand his situation and this cruel world.

To be soft-hearted was to push oneself step by step into hell.

He took out another piece of paper from the box.

Cai Ruomeng was puzzled for a while before she opened it.

Niu Mei's father owed him three hundred taels of silver. If he didn't pay the money on time, he would sell his mother to a brothel.

"This, Mother. How do you know that? " Cai Ruomu doubted the authenticity of these things.

Lady Cai smiled blandly. "I know all the important things that happened to the maids in my residence in the capital. If you think you can ignore everything happening outside the window, then how did you die without knowing? Our family was once guilty, even though it's already been exposed. However, you won't be able to regain your former status. However, no matter if it's in a small family, or a big family, you'll have to understand everything that's happening around here and what's going on in the imperial court. In this way, if you meet with any problems, you can plan ahead. "

"Mother!" Cai Ruomei looked at her mother and shouted in a deep voice. She had never known that her mother would actually know so much.

Lady Cai smiled as well. "It's not that exaggerated. I just know that some things are definitely good."

Cai Ruochen nodded. Then, he said, "Okay."

Lady Cai smiled. "Do you know why I'm telling you this?"

Cai Ruomo looked at her mother and nodded.
