Chapter 066: Deception
Just when Zhou's mother couldn't help but weaken her knees, and when she was about to kneel on the ground and ask for forgiveness, Peng Jin opened her mouth slowly: "If Zhou's mother really apologizes sincerely, she should show some real skills, instead of being here with me all these vain, playing with my heart and playing tricks!" ā
In the early morning at the end of August, the weather was slightly cool, but Zhou's mother was dripping with cold sweat on her forehead. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
is such an arrogant, domineering, smart and difficult sister-in-law, and her grandmother has really been moldy for eight lifetimes!
Zhou's mother slandered, but she also had to be soft, she was under the eaves, and she had to bow her head!
"The slave and maid will reconcile the accounts when they go back, and they will check the booklet one by one, and they will not let go of a needle and thread." Zhou's mother assured.
"Reconcile the accounts when you get back from me?" Peng Jin seemed to smile, "Mother Zhou wishes others didn't know, did I instigate this?" ā
Mother Zhou was scared into a cold sweat again, now she was completely honest, she didn't dare to play tricks anymore, and replied tamely: "It's the slave and maid who don't think it through, it's the slave who doesn't think it through!" Even my aunt and grandmother are suspicious! Auntie, please rest assured, the master's letter should be delivered in the next two days. At that time, the slave maid said that when the master instructed the queen to check the accounts, let the slave and maid also count the account books in the house by the way. It will definitely not make people suspicious of my aunt's head. ā
After all, since Peng Jin got married, the account books in the house have not been counted, and Zhou's mother's excuse is also reasonable.
Peng Jin nodded with satisfaction.
She didn't care what others said, but she was afraid that Kong's mother would be suspicious, so she went to Daxing Grange in advance to report to Kong Daxing, so that Kong Daxing had time to sell the stolen goods.
"In the past two days, I have to bother Zhou's mother to strictly control the entry and exit of everyone in Peng Mansion to prevent leakage of news." Peng Jin instructed, "However, Mother Kong is my nursing mother and a person trusted by my father, and before the matter is over, there should be no less respect and decency." ā
Zhou's mother dared to disagree, so she hurriedly responded.
Peng Jin hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke: "By the way, there have been a lot of things recently, I haven't been back to Peng's Mansion for a long time, and I haven't been to Zhou's Mansion to visit Lord Zhou and Mrs. Zhou." The third master was under the care and guidance of Lord Zhou in the Guozijian. ā
Zhou's mother was taken aback by Peng Jin's words, her thoughts turned, and she was secretly frightened, could it be that this aunt still plans to go to Zhou's mansion to file a complaint?
The daughter who marries out, spills the water!
The lord and the lady don't blame her for relying on the favor of her father and brother, it's good to be angry with the eldest grandmother everywhere, but she even dares to sue the wicked first?
Or do you want to use this to beat her and make her do her errands seriously?
Either way, it's just as ridiculous!
It's really rude.
What ignorance and fearlessness!
Where is it like the daughter of the Hanlin Bachelor!
Zhou's mother felt that she must have had her head caught in the door just now, so she felt that Peng Jin was quite scheming, calculating, and majestic.
Peng Jin didn't know that Zhou's mother made such a ridiculous guess based on the character of the original owner, but went to the point, seemingly naturally gossiping casually: "However, I heard from the third master, Guozijian has been holding a new round of academic stage evaluation recently, and he is very busy. As the prince of the country, Lord Zhou is the chief priest of the wine, and he is in charge of the general principles, and it is estimated that he is even more busy with tasks and cannot be idle. It's better to wait, and when Lord Zhou is free, I will go to the door with the third master to thank Lord Zhou for his teachings. ā
Mother Zhou listened to Peng Jin's words, and saw that Peng Jin's sincere gratitude did not seem to be fake, so she realized that she had a mistake, and her mood relaxed, and she replied casually: "This slave doesn't know." However, in previous years, after the township examination, the masters of the Guozijian would be busy guiding the schoolwork of the students on the list and preparing for the examination in the spring of the next year, but they had never heard of any academic stage tests. Two days ago, the slave maid went to the Zhou Mansion to greet the lord and his wife, and saw the lord serving chrysanthemums in the flower room, which was leisurely. After a pause, he added, "However, maybe this year will be different, maybe it will be different." The old man has been the country's priest for so many years, and he has no longer done everything himself in recent years. ā
Peng Jin's heart hung up with Zhou's mother's words.
Liu Shi's words last night, are they really just lying and deceiving her?
Zhou's mother didn't know that Peng Jin was taking the opportunity to find out the truth of Liu Zhi's words, and she was still sighing for Peng Jin's gratitude and retribution, and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, everyone is a relative, and it is also appropriate to help each other, why should my aunt be so polite?" Moreover, the slave maid heard the grandmother and the uncle mention it, saying that the uncle was a good learner, and the articles were well written, and the master once said that it was his blessing to have such a qualified and intelligent disciple as his uncle in his later years! ā
"Really?" Peng Jin tried his best to look happy, and said happily, "Then I have to thank Master Zhou even more!" Thank you for cultivating the third master with his heart! ā
Zhou's mother didn't know the inside story, because of this conversation, the previous nervousness and apprehension disappeared a lot, the smile on her face became sincere and vivid, and it seemed a lot more natural to talk to Peng Jin again.
Qingya happened to come back with breakfast, waited outside, and asked where the breakfast was.
Peng Jin left Zhou's mother and said: "It's better to be in time than to be in a hurry!" In this case, Zhou's mother should also stay and have breakfast together. ā
Mother Zhou was thinking about the reconciliation, where did she still have the heart to eat, so she hurriedly refused: "Thank you aunt and grandma for keeping the meal." However, the slave and maid had an errand in mind, and did not dare to delay more. I'm afraid I'm going to live up to my aunt's good intentions. ā
Peng Jin didn't force him to stay, and instructed Yunwu to pack up the snacks in the Babao box and give them to Zhou's mother to eat on the way, and rewarded a fan pendant with gold and jade, and told Yunwu to give it away in person.
Zhou's mother had to thank her, and left politely.
Peng Jin watched Zhou's mother go out with a smile, but turned her head and smiled, and instructed Qingya to put breakfast directly in Baoxia.
Yunwu sent Zhou's mother back, and said angrily: "This week's mother is really daring, she dares to ask Miss to act for her!" ā
Peng Jin smiled and didn't care: "She's also for her sister-in-law." ā
As long as Zhou's mother is willing to cooperate with her seriously and pull out the big moths of Mother Kong and Kong Daxing, she doesn't mind what Mother Zhou thinks of her.
If you want everyone to truly respect and love yourself, then how tiring it is!
"That can't support Miss either!" Yunwu was still puzzled, "Even the eldest grandmother has always been polite to the young lady, Mother Zhou is just the nurse of the eldest grandmother, how dare she play tricks with the young lady and let the young lady be her pawn!" ā
Listening to Yunwu talking about Zhou Shuyi, Peng Jin carefully sorted out the few memories of her sister-in-law getting along in her mind, and found that Zhou Shuyi, who was a sister-in-law, was really quite tolerant of the original owner.
The original owner of the stall is such a willful and arrogant sister-in-law, she can't beat, scold, and don't listen, which is really enough for Zhou Shuyi to have a headache.
"It's probably because your young lady looks easier to deceive." Peng Jin thought about it and frowned solemnly.
