96. Ninety-six

Ruji's heart sank, but she didn't have any fear, she just felt that the stone that had been hanging in her heart had finally landed. Holding the tea bowl and leaning back in the chair behind him: "Big lady, if you feel that you are a reluctant invitation, then it is better not to mention it." ”

Mrs. Shi's smile immediately froze, but after a moment she continued: "Grandma Mao is really fast-talking, so I won't beat around the bush." Your second brother Zhong Ge'er lacks a hearty person in the room, I see that the girl is really good, and she is the son of the Pu family, innocent and down-to-earth, so I want to ask you for it. Since I opened my mouth, I naturally can't treat the girl badly, and when I enter the door, I am an aunt, and I don't have any identity such as a girl in the room, do you think it's good? ”

There was no trace of a smile on Ru Xi's face: "I'm sorry, Cai Wan already has a marriage contract." You can find someone else. ”

"Got married?" Mrs. Shi was not surprised, and continued to ask, "What Grandma Mao said is Xiao Chen, the shopkeeper of your teahouse?" ”

Ru Xi frowned slightly, and her heart became more and more alert. Mrs. Shi is not a person who is clever and can speak well. The words just now were so smooth, in fact, it didn't look like her usual style, looking at her expression at the moment, it was obvious that she had done her homework. It's nothing for the Shi family to check Cai Wan and Chen Run, but they are afraid that Shi Zhonglang will use some shameless hooligan methods like in his previous life. Not to mention, if Chen Hao's method of calling people to attack at the entrance of Baifu Lane was put on Chen Run, Chen Run would not have Chen Hao's skills to protect himself, and he would be beaten with a stick, and if he didn't get it right, he would break his tendons and fractures, and even be disfigured and killed.

"Yes," Ru Ji replied in a deep voice, "they have been in love for a long time, and they will do things in a few days." ”

Mrs. Shi said with a smile: "Grandma Mao may have heard from the errand, I just heard that Xiao Chen's shopkeeper is very young and promising, and his aunt wants to be a matchmaker for him, saying that Geng Ti is still in the hands of the elders, how can there be any marriage contract." Could it be that this girl is more important than the brother in the next room? You can't just say this because you don't agree sincerely, right? ”

When these words came out, Mrs. Shi and Mrs. Shi also looked over.

"Sister-in-law, you are too sincere," Mrs. Shi sneered, "I have also heard about this matter, that Xiao Chen shopkeeper is now so promising, there are many people who want to be a matchmaker." Xiao Chen's shopkeeper and Caiyun girl have not officially had a marriage ceremony at all, there is no paperwork, no Gengti, no dowry, and they don't have parents, is there any marriage, isn't it just a sentence from the grandmother of the main family? Obviously, Brother Zhong needs a capable aunt like Miss Caiwan to serve her, but Grandma Mao still opens her eyes and talks nonsense, she doesn't want the brother in the next room to be good at all. Third wife, people say that you are as good as a mother and daughter, how can you not regard yourself as a Shi family so much? ”

Listening to Mrs. Shi Er's excuse to play like this, she turned the spearhead to Su San Niangzi, the anger in Ru Xi's heart quickly jumped, and she was just about to open her mouth to refute, but she listened to Su San Niangzi's unhurried words: "Everything must always be reasonable." It is true that those who are obedient are filial piety, and there is a difference between intimacy and alienation. But righteousness and justice are always greater than personal feelings. Today, the Empress Dowager Xiaoyi once wanted to take a concubine for the emperor, but the emperor said that although the young lady had never been married, she had a relationship with others, and as the respected of the Ninety-Five, she did not win the love of others. The second brother's previous case has become famous in front of the emperor, and at this time, if he has a reputation for forcibly marrying a people's daughter, I am afraid it will not be good. For the long-term future of the second brother, it is important to marry a wife seriously, and it is always not good to take a concubine before marriage. Or sister-in-law, do you intend to hire Cai Wan to be the young grandmother of the long house? In that case, I'll ask you again. ”

This time he was unhurried, and quoted the truth of the classics, Ru Xi almost applauded. Mrs. Shi Da immediately stammered a little and couldn't answer, obviously she didn't expect it and was not prepared, so she had to reluctantly say: "This ...... Where can this wife marry a girl? ”

Second Mrs. Shi's eloquence was much better, and she immediately sneered again: "The third wife really deserves to have read a book, so she can also talk about the lotus." Speaking of which, Grandma Mao is still unwilling to cut her love for the brother in the next room. In the end, the third wife, you still take care of the daughter-in-law of the Chen family and ignore the children and grandchildren of the Shi family. Chen and Shi bit very hard, and Mrs. Shi's face really became more ugly.

Su San Niangzi looked at Mrs. Shi Er with a straight face: "As a parent, how can you take care of your children and grandchildren?" If there is no doting and untaught parents, how can a good child behave so arbitrarily? In today's situation, if you don't reflect on it, what future can the child have. The second wife said that I don't regard the second brother as my own son, I might as well tell the truth, if I really regard the second brother as my son, I would have beaten him hard and told him to study behind closed doors. It's not too late for a nineteen-year-old young man to learn literature and martial arts, what is it to be a concubine before his sister-in-law is a wife? The second brother doesn't do anything else, and the sister-in-law doesn't think about how to teach? Could it be that the sister-in-law can still protect the second brother for the rest of her life? What do you say, it's your business, I, as an aunt, have a clear conscience. ”

Second Mrs. Shi was also choked when she heard this, and then she heard Mrs. Shi answer coldly: "How did the second brother's reputation get to this point, and it is not the credit of Uncle Mao?" He glared at Su Sanniang and Ru Ji again, and waved his hand impatiently: "Disperse!" ”

Su Sanniang and Ru Ji both knew that this was the old lady's excuse to play and vent her anger, so she didn't say anything more, and went back to the three-room courtyard directly.

When Chen Hao came back in the evening, Ru Xi told him about it again. Chen Hao frowned and said: "Shi Zhonglang is really a thief, you must tell Chen Run and Cai Wan to be careful when they go in and out." ”

Ru Xi nodded, in fact, the scene in the first life was almost like this, at that time, Shi Zhonglang didn't say anything. However, something happened the day before the wedding, and the tragedy at that time really made Ruji unforgettable and resentful. In this life, no matter what, there can be no such thing again, if Shi Zhonglang still dares to cross the Lei Chi, then he must be sent to practice the Sunflower Treasure Book and be a pair of spiritual friends with Chi Zhugui.

"Where can I get bodyguards like Xia Yin and Pinlan?" Ru Ji thought for a while, and finally made up her mind, "I want to hire someone to protect Cai Wan and Chen Run, it's best to look not strong, but if you are skilled, money is not a problem." ”

Chen Hao frowned and turned around: "Are you going to set Shi Zhonglang up?" ”

Ru Xi sneered: "There is a way in heaven, he doesn't go." If there is a lesson in the things ahead, don't think about it again at this time. If he didn't cross the thunder pool, this matter naturally had nothing to do with him. But if he kills himself, then I will not be stingy to send him to the ancestral grave. ”

Chen Hao was silent for a while: "You let me think about it." ”

"You're worried about your mother?" Ru Xi quickly understood Chen Hao's concerns, after all, Su Sanniang is the third wife of the Shi family, if the person she invited really beat Shi Zhonglang to death and maimed her, even if it makes sense to do it for the heavens, the incense in the long room has been cut off since then, and Mrs. Shi must be crazy. As a daughter-in-law, Su Sanniang can't stay in Chenzhou for the rest of her life without returning to Beijing, it really comes to a point where she wants to die or live, and the fish is dead and the net is broken, and Su Sanniang must be the one who suffers.

Chen Hao groaned: "There are a little concerns, but with Shi Zhonglang's temperament, the more indulgent he is, the more rampant he is, that is certain." I'm just thinking about who to find and how to do it, so that I can be completely untraceable. He is killing himself, and there is no reason to drag us down. ”

Ru Ji happily took the initiative to step forward and kiss him: "I knew you would have a way!" ”

Chen Hao smiled: "I'm also thinking that the people who protect Xiao Run and Cai Wan can ask from the Tianxing Dart Bureau first." They have people who specialize in taking on such work, and they don't guarantee people but goods. Even if Shi Zhonglang can't get retribution this time, he must always ensure the safety of Xiaorun and Caiwan. After all, they are your maids and domestic servants, even if something really happens or even a death, they are not as strict as the dispute or murder case in the court. ”

Ru Ji nodded: "Then I asked Xia Yin to secretly go to the Skywalker Bureau, with her vision, she should be more provocative, and I can't see anything myself." In addition, you really can't ask Cai Wan to come to the Shi family again, and the people in the long house can always come up with new tricks. ”

Chen Hao patted Ruxi's hand: "Okay, don't be angry, anyway, let's leave in August." If you don't worry about picking weeds, then ask her to follow you more and run less to Pu Weiji. Also, how is their marriage? In fact, I did it earlier. ”

Hearing this, Ru Xi sighed softly: "This matter, it's different from what I thought before, and I may not be able to do it recently." ”

"Why?" Chen Haoqi said, "Don't Cai Wan like Xiao Run?" ”

Ru Ji shook her head helplessly: "On the contrary, Cai Wan felt that Brother Run didn't like her enough, and always felt that Brother Run was just grateful that we brought him out of Jixiangbu Village in the first place." If Cai Wan has a pimple in her heart, or if Brother Run really thinks so, I don't think this marriage can be done in a hurry. Marriage is a major event, and it is better for the two to be happy. If Brother Run is willing to marry her now that he feels grateful to Caiyun, in case he meets a more delicate one in the future, he may lose his mind. ”

"What are these words," Chen Hao disagreed, "A manly man, how can anyone be half-hearted when he gets married, Xiao Run is not that kind of person." ”

Ru Ji pouted: "That's just what I said, I can't believe in the so-called human nature." Dou Mien, Shengmi Qiu, Brother Run has no one else in his heart now, and he is the shopkeeper under me, maybe he feels good when he looks at Cai Yun, after all, the matter of repaying the favor is put in his heart first. But Cai Wan was the one who helped him when he was the most wolf, and he didn't have much special respect and admiration for him, and if Brother Run had more money in a few years, he might feel that he wanted to find a woman who was weaker and more dependent on him. ”

"This-" Chen Hao thought about it carefully according to Ruxi's words, and seemed to have some truth, "It's better not to wait and see." ”
