"I am a man, and I know very well that when a man wants to get someone, he can agree to everything. But when time passes slowly, days and months pass by, and time flies by, how many men can stick to their hearts? "Ning Yuanhou looked at Meng Hetong and suddenly said.
"I..." Meng Hetong was about to speak, but was interrupted by Ning Yuanhou.
"You will naturally say that you can stick to your heart for the rest of your life. I am also a man. I have had two wives in my life. I also told Mo Mo's biological mother that she is the only one in my heart in this life! "Ning Yuanhou smiled bitterly, "But in the end, I still failed her. My heart was finally filled bit by bit by my current wife. Although she still has a place, she is no longer the same person after all!"
Meng Hetong looked at the glass of wine in front of him and said nothing for a long time.
"I don't know the origin of love, but love is deep. I am a person who has been there. My past with the late Madam may have been more dramatic than yours, but people in this world will eventually return to a plain life!" Marquis Ningyuan said, "If you want to marry Mo Mo, In the next few decades, you will have to face a wife who is not so gentle, not so considerate, who will not get up early to send you to court, and will not wash her hands to make soup for you. Meng Hetong, can you really accept it?"
"I don't need her to be gentle, nor do I need her to be considerate, nor do I need her to get up early to make soup for me. She can be herself, willful or arrogant, it doesn't matter. What I like is Xu Qingmo, who is who she is. She, not someone else's wife!" Meng Hetong raised his eyes and said firmly.
Marquis Ningyuan wanted to say something else, but Meng Hetong stopped him: "Uncle, why don't you listen to what I have to say first?"
Ning Yuanhou had no choice but to nod.
"Just like what you said, uncle, the days when we are together are full of stumbling blocks, and there are very few people who can stick to their true intentions. I can't guarantee that I can always stay with someone the same, because I have no way to guarantee that in the future, I What can be done is to retain her original intention as much as possible!" Meng Hetong said softly.
Marquis Ningyuan looked at Meng Hetong quietly, raised his eyes slightly, and motioned for him to continue: "Most people like women for their beauty and virtue, and I don't deny that I like Xu Qingmo's appearance. , I think most men can't refuse a face like Xu Qingmo's, but I think, in this world, except for my uncle and Xu Yanquan, there is no man who supports her more than me!"
The two fell silent.
Meng Hetong faced Marquis Ningyuan's gaze and straightened his back firmly.
"For me, I hope that Xu Qingmo's talent as a general will never be used in this life!" Marquis Ning Yuan suddenly said after a cup of tea, "But I also don't want her strategic talent to be annihilated. I hope She can always live a life with us supporting her even if the sky falls, living innocently and romantically! But she also hopes that the world can see her amazing talent..."
Meng Hetong didn't answer, just sat there and listened quietly.
"I won't agree!" Marquis Ning Yuan suddenly turned back to look at Meng Hetong, "Not to mention you, even if your father is sitting in front of me, I will not agree!"
There was a moment of disappointment in Meng Hetong's eyes, but the next moment, he said firmly: "Then I will always wait until the day you agree!"
Marquis Ningyuan paused, and then laughed: "When the child grows up, it is not up to the parents. If she has her heart set on you, it is up to me to agree or not to agree! I hold the daughter who has grown up in my hands, and I cannot do it casually. Then give it to someone else, unless she wants to leave!"
Meng Hetong's eyes lit up, and he knew that Marquis Ning Yuan had relented.
Marquis Ningyuan really didn't want to stay in a place like Fireworks Willow Lane. After finishing his words, he stood up and left.
Just as he was walking out of the door, Marquis Ningyuan suddenly stopped, then turned back to look at Meng Hetong: "Next time, if I see you here again, I won't mind breaking your legs for your father!"
Meng Hetong felt his right eye jump uncontrollably, then he quietly held down his slightly trembling left hand and responded with a smile: "Okay!"
When Marquis Ning Yuan walked away, Meng Hetong's right eye stopped beating. Yusheng slowly stepped forward, looked at Meng Hetong and asked, "Master, what should we do next?"
"What should I do?" Meng Hetong raised his eyebrows, "Of course I have to find a way to make Xu Qingmo nod!"
Yu Changchang sighed: "Master, do you think that with Miss Xu's temperament, she would stab you to death the moment you open your mouth?"
Meng Hetong sighed helplessly: "It's not impossible! I remember that there is a gold-threaded garment in our warehouse, right?"
"Master, are you so cowardly that you actually want to use this gold threaded garment to save your life?" Yusheng's face was full of disbelief.
"Otherwise, I will use you as a human shield to save my life?" Meng and Tong looked back at Yusheng leisurely.
Yusheng took a step back silently, and then said: "I am an only child, and I haven't carried on the family line yet!"
Meng Hetong was too lazy to talk to him, returned to his seat, sat down, and then stared at the drink in front of him in a daze.
Probably when she saw Marquis Ningyuan leaving, Hua Niang boldly knocked on the door and came in: "Oh, oh, oh, this Marquis is really amazing. He scared our girl so much just by standing there. Sorry, no one dared to step forward, but are you neglecting me?"
"Don't be negligent, don't be negligent!" Meng Hetong lowered his eyes and immediately put on a drunken look, "Ning Yuanhou is such an upright person, it is inevitable that he won't like this noisy place!"
"Is this a social event that I have to do after becoming a Marquis?" Hua Niang asked tentatively, then knelt down next to Meng Hetong and poured her tea.
"That's not true. In terms of seniority, I will call him uncle after all. He doesn't understand my style, so he will inevitably say a few words. It's okay!" Meng Hetong raised his eyebrows slightly, "But in the future, Hua Niang can You must remember to open the back door for me. This man said that if he sees me coming here, he will break my legs once. I will not dare to leave the front door!"
"Hey, I'm coming. Even if I'm not doing business today, I have to find a way for you to come here with peace of mind!" Hua Niang said with a smile, "Is it still the old rule that the girl should accompany me?"
"No, after being scolded, I have no interest anymore!" Meng Hetong sighed helplessly, "Let's serve some good wine and good food. By the way, let's change the girl on the stage downstairs to one who can sing southern songs. Wu Nong said softly, please take it easy and I will give you the money!"
The flower girl naturally accepted the request with all possible intentions.
After Hua Niang left, the smile on Meng Hetong's face disappeared completely: "This prince really doesn't give up on Ningyuan Houfu!"
