Chapter 14: Who Said She Was Stupid
Seeing that the old lady was already angry, Sang Yingqiu hurriedly instructed Chen's mother: "Come and see what is going on with the eldest lady." After speaking, he kept rubbing his handkerchief with his hand, seemed to be very nervous, and looked up again to explain: "Yunyou is good at everything, but he is spoiled by me, and he blames me." β
These words sound like they are excusing Shen Yunyou, but they are actually telling everyone that Shen Yunyou is unruly. She originally wanted her daughter to marry into the Chi family, but now, of course, the longer it drags on, the better, and she wishes that Shen Yunyou would not appear today.
"Yun You has always been well-behaved and obedient, and never causes trouble, how come you come to become spoiled? Shen Fu retorted, she couldn't get used to seeing this Sang Yingqiu secretly belittled Shen Yunyou, it was disgusting.
The two competed against each other like this, the old lady's face became more and more ugly, Shen Fu was her favorite child, of course, she had nothing to fear, Sang Yingqiu also understood that she would only suffer if she argued with her, so she swallowed her anger, laughed a few times and stopped talking.
"Old lady, Miss Huo is here. Huo Yurou's appearance softened the old lady's face a little, after all, there were still outsiders, and she didn't want to be laughed at.
Huo Yu was thoughtful for a few days, and after saluting, he stepped aside and sat down, but his eyes fell on Chi Jiyuan.
He sat beside Old Lady Chi without saying a word, as if today's protagonists were not him and Shen Yunyou. The two of them had clearly never met, so wasn't he curious at all? Or was it ...... He didn't want to marry Shen Yunyou at all.
Huo Yurou remembered the discussions she often heard, whenever there was anything about the eldest lady of the Shen Mansion, almost all of them said that she was stupid, Chi Jiyuan shouldn't have heard something, right?
Shen Yunyou didn't show up for a long time, and she couldn't help but worry, but Shen Yunjiao was still adding fuel and vinegar at this time.
"My sister doesn't do this on weekdays, why is she out of proportion when she encounters a big event?" she shook her head, and she was always naΓ―ve in front of others, but no one suspected that she was deliberately embarrassed.
But the old lady was indeed even more angry because of this, after all, the people of the Chi family were still sitting there, and it was really embarrassing for Shen Yunyou to be so sloppy.
"The elders haven't spoken yet, where is your place to speak?" Shen Fu spoke again, this Shen Yunjiao, who looked cute and well-behaved, was actually accusing Shen Yunyou every sentence, she couldn't stand such a villain's behavior.
Shen Yunjiao was scolded by her like this, but she really stopped talking, Shen Fu was straightforward, and the old lady liked her, she didn't want to be an enemy of this person, so she let her speak quickly for a while, but Shen Yunyou didn't appear for a long time, and she couldn't escape punishment.
"What the hell is going on?" the old lady was furious in her heart, but because it was inconvenient for outsiders to be present, she had to be angry at Sang Yingqiu.
"This ...... Why don't I go and see it myself?" Sang Yingqiu got up, as long as Shen Yunyou didn't show up today, he would definitely be reprimanded by the old lady, and at that time, even Shen Shun couldn't cover her.
However, as soon as she walked to the door, she saw Chen's mother and Lingyi hurrying over.
"What the hell is going on?" Sang Yingqiu found that Shen Yunyou was not behind the two, so he breathed a sigh of relief, grabbed Lingyi and asked, "What about the eldest lady?"
"Miss...... Miss her, she slept ...... "Lingyi didn't dare to raise her head, and she couldn't say a word for a long time.
"Say, what's wrong?" The old lady slammed her crutches on the ground, and her voice suddenly became louder, and Lingyi was so frightened that she knelt down with a "plop", and didn't dare to hide it for Shen Yunyou: "Miss fell into the pond." β
This result surprised Sang Yingqiu, she turned her head to look at Chen's mother, but the latter shook her head slightly, she had not yet entered Shen Yunyou's courtyard when she met Lingyi who came out in a hurry, and the two of them came together.
She also thought that Shen Yunyou fell into a coma because of last night's soup, but she didn't want Lingyi to say such a reason.
Huo Yurou looked at Shen Yunjiao, and it happened that the latter was also looking at her, her eyes were full of provocation, Huo Yurou frowned and pursed her lips, and finally did not speak.
"How old is this, will she fall into the pond, is she missing arms and legs? Do you still need me to carry her over?" The old lady said a little heavily, but she didn't expect the old lady Chi who was sitting opposite to laugh out loud.
The eyes of the entire hall were attracted to him, but he couldn't stop laughing all the time.
Old Madam Shen looked at this old man with a slight dissatisfaction, was what she said funny? He was so laughing that tears were about to fall. I really don't know how my master met such a person in the first place.
Of course, Old Lady Chi understood that it was very inappropriate for him to do this, but he just couldn't control himself, and for a while, the atmosphere in the hall was very weird, only Old Lady Chi couldn't hold back the laughter, and as Old Lady Shen's face became more and more ugly, everyone didn't dare to come out.
After a while, Old Lady Chi finally barely controlled himself, he cleared his throat a little embarrassed, and touched Chi Jiyuan with his elbow again, signaling to relieve himself.
"Ahem...... cough" Chi Jiyuan held back a sentence for a long time: "It's not enough." β
Old Madam Shen's patience had reached the extreme, and she didn't want to pay attention to the grandfather and grandson anymore, so she turned her gaze away.
On the contrary, Shen Shun was a little embarrassed, his mother he knew, she had always been arrogant, and her temperament was not good, and now he didn't give the old lady of the Chi family a step in front of so many people, which was really a bit out of proportion.
"Yun You is a little frizzy on weekdays, don't be weird......"
"The eldest lady is here!" Before Shen Shun finished speaking, Chen's mother suddenly shouted out such a sentence in a strange tone, Sang Yingqiu glared, and she lowered her head.
"Coming?" Old Madam Shen raised her head slightly, Shen Yunyou had lost face, and she was now trying her best to restrain the anger in her heart.
"I've seen my grandmother, my father, my mother. Shen Yunyou saluted respectfully, and then turned to the two people of the Chi family: "This one...... It must be Old Lady Chi, right? This ......" As soon as her eyes touched Chi Jiyuan, she lowered her head shyly, and even the roots of her ears turned red.
Chi Jiyuan seemed to be smiling, she did it to herself when she met yesterday, and today she pretended not to have seen it, and she was even so ashamed, who said she was stupid?
"Okay, what's the matter with you?" Old Madam Shen didn't have time to pay attention to these things, she took the lead in making a difficulty: "Why are you only here now." β
"Didn't Lingyi tell you?" Shen Yunyou glanced at Lingyi strangely, and Lingyi immediately lowered his head, a little weak.
Shen Yunyou had no choice but to reply: "I slept hard today and got up late, so I missed the hour." β
As soon as these words came out, the hall was quiet, and everyone remembered that Lingyi had just said that Shen Yunyou had fallen into the pond, but now she had changed her words.
Isn't this a clear trick to treat the old lady as a monkey? The Shen family's face can be regarded as being lost by her.
"What's wrong with you? Say it again?" Old Madam Shen's words were extremely cold, and everyone felt her anger, so they held their breath and looked at Shen Yunyou in unison.
