Chapter 240: Ruthless
Since he got the idea, he sat in Yilan Courtyard for a while, and Cheng Yiyao went back, and when he returned to Yao Jingxuan, Situ You was already in the house.
"Why did you come back so early today?" There is still some time before lunch, not to mention that Situ You seems to be very busy these days and usually doesn't come back at noon.
Hearing Cheng Yiyao's voice, Situ Youcai took his eyes off the book in his hand and looked at his wife who came in, with a smile in his eyebrows and eyes: "There is nothing to do today, so I will come back early!" "Actually, he heard that Cheng Yiyao asked his maids to secretly go to Ningshou Courtyard before he came back, and if something went wrong, he could still help her with.
"Are you having lunch here today?" Cheng Yiyao didn't think much about it, moved to the chair opposite and sat down and asked, "If it's used here, the concubine will immediately let people prepare a few more dishes!" Although the time may be a little rushed, it is still possible to simply add a few dishes, and he has not come back for lunch in the past few days, and there is no preparation for him in the courtyard at noon.
"No need, just add a pair of dishes and chopsticks." He didn't pay so much attention to it, in fact, four dishes for two people were enough, "You went to my mother's just now?" ”
"Well, I don't know how to deal with some problems with the Mid-Autumn Festival gift list, so I went to consult my mother!" Cheng Yiyao didn't intend to hide these things from him, so she said directly, "Regarding the gift list from the uncle and several uncles, the concubine can't be sure if this year will be sent together like in previous years." ”
"Oh!" Situ You nodded and didn't ask any more, his father and mother had a plan in their hearts about this matter, and he didn't care about it.
"The mother of the concubine's mother's house asked the concubine to draw up herself, and the concubine prepared a copy. Can you help take a look? "Situ Mansion and Chengguo Mansion have never had any contact before, and the Mid-Autumn Festival Ceremony naturally has no previous precedent, so there is no reference for reference. I can only look at the New Year's Eve and several other gift lists not long ago to set a rule, although it is not really without reference, but she still feels not very relieved, it is her own mother's family, more in-laws will have ideas, less grandmother will not say anything, a few aunts will still have some words.
I've been trying to ask Situ You to help me take a look these days, but he hasn't been available. It's rare to be caught by himself today, so he naturally can't let it go, Cheng Yiyao plans to wait for him to think that there is no problem, and then take it to the Zhai family to see.
I've seen the gift list. The meal had already been prepared, and after lunch, the two were about to rest, but they heard An Qiyu report: "Master Qiqi." The old lady has a seizure over there! ”
Cheng Yiyao fell asleep most of the time. Hearing this, he was about to get up, but Situ You also got up and asked, "What's wrong?" Although he had known for a long time that since Mo Yan had not come to him until now, there should have been no major mistakes in the matter, but he still asked on his face.
"You can rest first, the concubine has something to go out for!" Cheng Yiyao had already gotten out of bed and put on her gown, and changed An Qi to come in and comb her hair again.
Cheng Yiyao hasn't taken care of it yet, and Situ You is already ready: "I'll go with you!" ”
"It's not a big deal, just go over and take a look!" Cheng Yiyao looked at Situ You with some doubts. Normally he didn't care much about these things, but now he's so active. I always feel that something is not normal, does he know something?
But then I felt that I was thinking too much, and I was also improvising at that time, even if I let An Qi go over, I didn't go through too careful planning, Situ You shouldn't know.
"Let's go!" Situ You didn't seem to notice Cheng Yiyao's puzzled gaze, and took the lead in walking outside the house.
"Yes!" Since Situ You insisted on going, Cheng Yiyao would no longer stop him.
Before entering Ningshou Temple, I could hear the woman's wailing and the child's hysterical cry from inside.
Cheng Yiyao glanced at An Qi on the side, Situ You was always by her side, and she didn't have a chance to ask An Qi, what is the situation here now, she really doesn't know.
Seeing An Qi shaking his head, Cheng Yiyao suddenly wanted to come to An Qi to finish his work, and seeing that the people around Mrs. Situ had already found Zeng and Yin Yin, she shouldn't dare to stay longer, so she came back to resume her life.
The group went straight to the courtyard, and when they entered the courtyard, they saw that Zeng was pressed on a stool by two strong ladies, and only heard the woman's screams and the child's cry outside the courtyard.
"Mother! Mother! Yin Yin's loud cry resounded throughout the courtyard, "You are also a bad person, why do you want to beat my mother, you are not my grandmother!" As he spoke, he ran to Mrs. Situ and beat her legs desperately.
"Are you all ruined?" Old Madam Situ kicked Yin Yin to the ground, and looked coldly at a few maids on the side, "I can't even look at a child!" ”
Although the kick was not heavy, the little girl was stunned for a long time, and then broke out into a more shocking cry than before.
Before this Miss Yin Yin was the old lady's careful liver, no matter what she said, the old lady would respond, these days a few maids have been punished by the old lady because she was punished, and before she knew what the old lady meant, who dared to step forward to stop this little ancestor, naturally everyone was afraid.
But at this time, Mrs. Situ had spoken, and they still hesitated about anything, so they directly stepped forward and hugged Yin Yin to the side, holding her to prevent her from running around.
Although Zeng's said that he was beaten now, but these are just skin injuries, not really hurting the muscles and bones, just look at her now and still have the strength to roar here, this is just the beginning, just listen to her wailing over there: "Mom! Old lady, the concubine body just wants to ...... Eh!! I want to meet my daughter! Damn! There is no yin or conspiracy! ”
"Really?" Old Madam Situ walked up to the Zeng family and looked at her condescendingly, "No premeditation? Bring me those two minions who have seen the money! ”
The two servant women who were brought up were the two who looked at Zeng's family, and when they saw Zeng's who was beaten with blurred flesh and blood, their feet softened suddenly, they were just greedy for money, they were also old people in the house, and they were used to looking at the master's face, if they didn't look at the appearance of the house, they didn't care about Zeng's very much, and they wouldn't have the courage to let her out, and Zeng's every time they went out was not for a long time, and they would come back obediently every time, they didn't expect something to happen!
"Plop" and fell to the ground: "The old lady spares her life!" Old lady spare her life! ”
"What sin you should be guilty of letting people out without permission?" Old Madam Situ looked at the two of them with a slightly cold gaze, "You think that no one can do whatever you want if no one finds out, you are betraying the master!" Did You Know? ”
He didn't listen to the explanation of the two of them, and said directly to the servant woman on the side: "Pull these two cheap slaves who betray their masters down and kill them with rods, and if their family members are also in the house, they will also be bought!" (To be continued......)
