The atmosphere was at a stalemate, and the old lady was helped in. She glanced at the eldest lady sharply, then sat down on the chair, "What on earth are you two arguing about? Tell me clearly tonight!"
The second lady tucked Shen Man into bed, wiped her sweat, and said slowly, "Go somewhere else and don't disturb Man Man."
The drunk Mr. Zhou finally arrived late, with a sleepy look on his face, "Are you okay?"
"Oh, I thought you were dead in bed." The second lady stared at him and suddenly exploded.
The second master glanced at him, without any tenderness in his eyes, and said calmly, "What are you crazy about?"
After years of grievance and forbearance, and facing this man's irrelevant attitude, the second lady's anger could no longer be suppressed. She had to vent it, otherwise she would really be mad at herself.
The second lady stepped forward quickly, grabbed the teapot and water cup on the table, and threw it at him hard, "Oh, I'm crazy. If I were really crazy, I should stab you to death without letting you Zhou family learn from each other." "
"What kind of man are you? You can't even protect your own wife and daughter. I think you've read all the books you've read over the years and gone to the dog's belly. You've done bad things yourself, but you ran away to have fun outside. You don't take any responsibility at all." .”
…
The second lady completely lost her so-called self-cultivation and began to curse at the top of her voice.
The second master was hit with bruises on his body, and his face turned red after being scolded.
The eldest lady's face was full of worry, but she did not dare to act rashly.
"That's enough for you. Who gives you the courage to attack your own men?" the old lady angrily scolded.
The second lady sneered, "From now on, no one in the Zhou family will try to bully us, mother and daughter, otherwise I guarantee that we will all be finished together, and within three days everyone in the streets will know about the dirty things of the Zhou family."
After the second lady was forced to a dead end, she bottomed out and completely rose to prominence.
When the old lady heard what she said, she was really a little worried. The so-called Qingliu family paid most attention to reputation.
"Get your emotions together and come to the upper room to talk."
The old lady took the lead in going back to her room in a sedan. After a whole night of continuous tossing, the old lady obviously couldn't bear it.
Shen Xingwan ate melon the whole time, and the second master walked away.
The eldest lady angrily said to Shen Xingwan, "Go back to your room. You are not allowed to come out without my permission."
How could she miss such a great show? Shen Xingwan refused calmly, "No, I want to go to bed too."
"How dare you not listen to what I say?" The eldest lady's chest heaved, "I am your mother."
"What about that?" Shen Xingwan looked at her with a half-smile, "Aren't you going to handle me like you handle your second aunt?"
"I should discipline you. Go back and copy the Buddhist scriptures." The eldest lady said coldly.
It's all her fault for being so meddlesome, otherwise no matter whether the second lady commits murder or commits suicide, it would be a good thing for herself.
At this moment, the eldest lady saw that Shen Xingwan was not pleased with anything.
"Oh, you dare to punish me?" Shen Xingwan threatened with a chuckle, "Then don't blame me for being ruthless in the future. We don't have much love as mother and daughter anyway."
The eldest lady was shocked and came to her senses. The person in front of her was not her biological daughter, and she was marrying into a high-ranking family. It might not be good for her if she had a falling out.
The eldest lady snorted coldly and led the people away.
The room suddenly became quiet.
The second lady had calmed down her emotions and said calmly, "Let's go too."
It was a little cold outside, and Shen Xingwan was holding the Tang Pozi prepared by Bai Ling in her hand, "What are you going to do, Aunt Two?"
"If the Zhou family dares to force me, they will die." The second lady said softly,
Of course, she was worried about Zhou Man, and she hoped to get a good result from the negotiation.
After walking for more than ten minutes, we arrived at the upper room where the old lady lived.
The whole courtyard was brightly lit, and all the maids and ladies were already up and performing their duties, and it was extremely quiet.
Just as Shen Xingwan was about to go inside, he was stopped by the maid next to the old lady. The maid said respectfully, "Miss Qi, please go back and rest. The old lady said that tonight's affairs are not your responsibility."
Shen Xingwan left with some regret. She was not from the Zhou family after all, so of course she couldn't be present for such things.
After tossing until midnight, he no longer felt sleepy, so Shen Xingwan took people directly to Lin Zhiyu's yard.
Lin Zhiyu's place is still very quiet. There is no sign of having been robbed.
Iris personally welcomed her in. The room was very warm, and Lin Zhiyu was playing chess alone under the window.
"You don't seem to need my comfort." Shen Xingwan teased.
Lin Zhiyu held a sunspot between his fingers, "Want to play a game?"
Shen Xingwan took off his cloak and sat down, holding the white bag in his hand, "Okay."
The two of them focused on the chess game. After playing the game, Shen Xingwan felt a little tired. He sat lazily and leaned back on his chair, "Are you really a bad thief here?"
Lin Zhiyu looked at her deeply, "Then do you really want to marry the regent?"
Shen Xingwan played with the chess pieces in her hand. Lin Zhiyu had tested her several times. She could feel that she had no ill intentions and pondered for a while, "Although I really have lost my memory, I know who I am."
It seemed like a lot was said, but actually nothing was said.
For Lin Zhiyu, it was enough.
As long as Shen Xingwan knows her identity, she will not sit still and stay in the Zhou family and Xiling.
Lin Zhiyu put down the sunspot in his hand, "I don't want to stay in the Zhou family anymore."
"I don't want to either."
The two looked at each other under the light and reached a consensus almost instantly.
Shen Xingwan whispered, "I'm being watched very closely."
"What do you want to do?" Lin Zhiyu asked.
"You must first send back the news that I am here." Shen Xingwan said.
Lin Zhiyu frowned, considering her identity, she has been in trouble until now, and you came to rescue her, but maybe the other side didn't know she was here.
Iris couldn't help but stood up, "I can help you deliver the message, but you have to take Zhiyu away."
"Iris!" Lin Zhiyu gave her a warning look.
Iris looked at her distressedly, "If I don't have to endure it any longer, he will only get worse."
There is indeed something fishy about what happened tonight. It's not as simple as Xiaoxiang Courtyard having a thief.
She asked, "What's going on tonight?"
Lin Zhiyu's face turned pale, and he said in a somewhat unspeakable voice, "It's not a thief, it's the Fifth Young Master who's here."
Shen Xingwan couldn't remember who it was.
"Your nominal brother, the eldest lady's youngest son, has always been very favored." Lin Zhiyu explained her confusion softly.
Shen Xingwan looked at Lin Zhiyu quietly, "What is he here for?"
She had no impression of this fifth young master. During this period of time in the Zhou family, the Zhou family girl had seen almost all of them, but she had never met any of the young masters, even the nominal brother.
Lin Zhiyu sighed inaudibly and said nothing.
"He covets Zhiyu..." Iris on the side said, "He has been secretly pestering Zhiyu."
Lin Zhiyu had endured it for a long time, but this time he went too far.
