"Did you take it to the Empress Dowager?" Xu Jiaan asked.

Meng Li nodded: "Yes."

"What are you going to do?" he continued to ask, who was so attentive to nothing.

Meng Li's face was cold and natural:

"Of course I hope for a good future for my son."

"Who?" Xu Jia'an's expression was a little moved. He wasn't that ruthless after all.

I still have a son in my heart.

Meng Li smiled: "Of course, it's the one who stays by my side. I'll ask for anyone who is good."

Xu Jiaan frowned: "This is unfair to Xiuyuan, what do you think?"

Meng Li: "He still expects me to be fair after he has gone out? Shouldn't he be treated like this?"

Xu Jiaan gave Meng Li a blank look and sneered:

"You are just hard now and can't rely on him. When you need him when you get old, he will treat you like this."

Meng Li said:

"I guess he dared not. Since ancient times, filial piety is the most important thing, and I have valued filial piety for all generations, and I have served the emperor from above and the lower levels. How many of the subjects dare to be unfilial to their parents?"

"So that's what you're trying to do, you have the support and do whatever you want." Xu Jiaan disdained.

Meng Li was not in the mood to talk to Xu Jiaan, and waved his hand and said:

"I deliberately become cold for so many days, so I will continue to be cold and don't have to appear in front of me."

She said so bluntly that Xu Jiaan had nothing to say and turned around and left.

Soon the imperial appointment came down. When Xu Zhichao knew that it was something his mother deliberately asked for, she was a little moved. She was still planning for herself when she treated her like this.

He did not refuse this position, and no one would consider his future. Now that he has not seen Wen Yue'er for a long time, some of his feelings have settled down. Besides, even if he sees her, he can't do anything, and he has no heart to be with her.

The day before he went out to take office, he made a special trip to Meng Li to say thank you and some repentance and admit his mistakes, which means that he should not do these confused things, and he hopes that his mother will forgive him.

He said that he was going to work and asked his mother to take good care of her at home.

Meng Li didn't sarcastically to Xu Zhichao, but he was a little cold. Meng Li felt that this was the only way to do with the client's son.

Because of his relationship with the client, he has decided that he cannot do anything excessive to him.

Although this son has disobeyed her and made her feel so heartbroken, most of them will choose to forgive her as a mother.

"Go, I wish you a bright future after three years." Meng Li added:

"Three years have been enough for you to grow your mind, right? I hope you regret that you have ever had some ridiculous things."

I hope you regret it.

I really hope that the three men of Xu Zhichao and the others will regret it.

Xu Zhichaozhi's mother was saying something, and she smiled bitterly:

"My son doesn't have to wait for three years, but he actually regrets it now."

"It was just a matter of a moment of thought, and finally we were in a dilemma, and then we had to give up in the end."

At first, he agreed to his brother's request because of a thought, but later he had a relationship with Wen Yue'er, which made it difficult for him to get out of it. At that time, he was quite struggling inside and knew that this relationship was pathological and immoral. Then Yue'er and her father had a relationship and became a four-person team. Then she was not healthy and unable to do anything. She had to give up until now just to make her live a better life.

After she left during this period, her heart really calmed down and she fell in love with the feeling of being away from her.

She is not here, so she doesn't have to recall the past and face her eyes.

Meng Li didn't see how much regret Xu Zhichao was. If he could regret it, it was because of his physical condition. If his health was fine, he might be too crazy now.

But there was no need to say this. She nodded and when he really regretted it, she gave him a few more instructions and let him go.

But not long after leaving, Xu Zhichao came back and said to Meng Li:

"My son will take three years to travel, but the elder brother has been away for a while, so he misses him very much. Can the mother allow her son to invite her to come home and have a meal together as a practice for her son."

Meng Li looked at him with a faint look. When he was releasing his mental power, he saw Xu Jiaan and Xu Zhichao talking outside.

It must be Xu Jia'an's instructions that he wanted to create conditions for Xu Xiuyuan to come back and live.

Well, Meng Li nodded: "Everything is OK."

Xu Zhichao smiled sincerely, thinking that his mother would say a few ugly words to relieve her depression. He didn't expect that she was so happy. Could it be that she really missed her brother?

When it was getting dark, Xu Xiuyuan brought Wen Yue'er back. When Wen Yue'er saw Meng Li, she greeted him very regularly.

The same is true for Xu Xiuyuan, as if there was no grudge in the past.

The dinner was particularly sumptuous, and Xu Jiaan also took out the expensive ingredients that the emperor once rewarded him, which was a kind of dried seafood from the warehouse.

It can be seen that his feelings for his son.

Everyone sat together and started eating. Wen Yue'er had been trying to find an opportunity to talk to Meng Li to ease their relationship. However, Meng Li was too cold and made everyone embarrassed.

Xu Zhichao felt that he should help his brother, so he said to Meng Li:

"My son has been around for a long time, but he is not at ease with his mother. Can you allow your brother to come back and take care of you?"

Meng Li said coldly:

"I always say I can take care of me, but I'm not that old enough to walk, and I have maids around me, so I don't need anyone to take care of me."

Xu Zhichao was embarrassed for a moment and continued:

"Mother still needs emotional support, which is something that the maids and the others cannot give."

Meng Li: "They don't need to come back and get angry with me."

Xu Zhichao: “…”

It's really impossible to communicate.

He looked at Xu Xiuyuan helplessly and helplessly. Xu Xiuyuan couldn't say that he wanted to come back due to face, but he heard his mother say:

"Zhichao, you are my hope now. My mother spent such a big price. I hope you can do your best in the past three years. When you come back, you will be promoted to the first level. You will have a better future in the future."

After saying this, Meng Li glanced at Wen Yue'er, and indeed Wen Yue'er's face became very ugly.

Moreover, Xu Xiuyuan's face paused, and he looked very far-fetched. He lowered his head and curled his lips awkwardly, and instantly felt that he shouldn't say anything.

Maybe I shouldn't have come back today.

Did my mother really give up on him? I gave all the benefits to my brothers, and I never considered him a little.

This discovery made him very uncomfortable. His mother treated him and his younger brother equally since childhood. Now he suddenly treated him differently, which made people feel very uncomfortable.

Is this Meng Li intentional?

Of course yes.

Before Xu Zhichao could feel that his brother and sister-in-law were unhappy, he was thinking about how to get them back. He thought about what to do in his heart. Xu Jiaan saw it and warned Meng Li with his eyes.

Unfortunately, Meng Li ignored it and it was difficult for him to say it. It would only be more embarrassing to say it in front of everyone, and it would make the brothers even more indifferent.
