Chapter 254: It's all about acting
Zhai Shi looked at Cheng Yiyao, and his face seemed to be a little ugly: "Didn't you notify you?" β
"My daughter-in-law has sent someone to inform you!" Obviously, everyone knows that it is a play, but they are still not slacking off, Cheng Yiyao looked at Zhai with a bitter face, with a look of grievance.
The third master only remembered at this time that there seemed to be such a thing, when the housekeeper finished speaking, Zeng came in and argued for him to take her to the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet, he casually said to the housekeeper that he knew, and then he was entangled by Zeng, coaxed for a long time and finally failed to convince Zeng, but was persuaded by Zeng, and then this matter was forgotten by him.
Why didn't the housekeeper come to tell him again, he actually let himself lose such a big person, the housekeeper will not be a person from the second room, so he deliberately stumbled himself!
This is really wronged him, Situ Mansion has been in charge of the second room for more than ten years, and under the deliberate connivance of the Zhai family, all the stewards in the third room have developed the habit of being lazy and lazy, since the third master of Situ himself said that he knew, the housekeeper adhered to the principle that more things are better than one less, and the third master did not open his mouth, and he did not open his mouth, so this matter was ignored by everyone under the housekeeper's deliberate forgetfulness and the third master's carelessness.
Thinking like this, the third master thought it was true, and felt that the housekeeper must have been bought by the second room, but this is a matter of the third room, and he will slowly clean it up after he goes back, and then he will find the second room to settle the account.
Thinking that he was a dignified seven-foot man, he naturally felt aggrieved to deal with these trivial things, this was all done by the second room before, and they suddenly caught themselves off guard, it must have been deliberate. Then he drank: "You were responsible for it before, but what is the reason for suddenly giving up, the other brothers will forget it." Wen's appearance now, what's wrong with you as a sister-in-law's younger brother? I want to see my mother, and I want to judge my mother! β
"I sent someone to call my mother just now, but my mother didn't want to come out, saying that she was unwell, so the third brother better not bother!" Zhai's face was gentle, but he sneered in his heart. "As for helping the third brother give gifts, it's not that the third brother didn't say it, if the third brother came to inform him earlier. Now that the purchased silver is ready, it doesn't matter if I ask Yao'er to prepare more! "The third master thinks well, if he really starts this head, I'm afraid that in the future, I won't be able to push the bad debt of the third room if I want to. Let's be clear for now. It's okay to help with things, he has to pay for the money for the gift, and the Zhai family still doesn't know what the third master has in mind.
"When did the second sister-in-law become so stingy, and she still cares about such a small amount of money!" The third master pursed his lips disdainfully.
"These are naturally a small amount of money for the third brother, our lord and the doctor Yu Shi said it well, but there is not much money, and he has raised a large family of people over the years, but he has hollowed out the family funds. It's not a small amount of money for me! Zhai Shi smiled, "Anyway, the third brother doesn't care about this money, no!" β
After all, the price is not fixed. There are still a lot of profits to be made from it, the third master naturally doesn't want to be taken advantage of by the third room, so he doesn't take advantage of it, and the old lady also knows that he is angry with him for a while, so he can only say: "Don't trouble the second sister-in-law!" Since you treat me as a brother like this, don't blame me for not being merciful, and don't come to me if you have something to do in the future! The third master turned around and left after saying cruel words, and secretly decided in his heart that he had to maintain the "mother-son relationship".
"Alright, you guys go back too!" Although it was very relieving to watch the third old man eat deflated, but after being yelled at for a long time, the Zhai family was also tired, and the old lady Situ also knew about it, but she didn't want to take care of the affairs of the third room now.
But Zhai will not be naΓ―ve to think that the third master has fallen out of favor, so many years, he knows the temperament of the old lady Situ, as long as he wants to, there is no one who can't be coaxed back, so many years of getting the old lady's unprincipled migraine can not be reversed in three or two strokes, and the Zhai family does not intend to reverse it, as long as he can achieve his goal now and draw a clear line with the third room, even if the third master goes back to the old lady, the old lady wants to have a seizure too late.
As long as the third room is solved now, whatever he wants to say in the future, he can say whatever he wants, how stupid he has to be to take over the burden of the third room again, anyway, it won't be good if he is said a few words, the Zhai family has already seen it at this point, and now the second master is not the second master of more than ten years ago, even the old lady is afraid of this son.
Situ You glanced at Cheng Yiyao beside him, shook his head and said, "If you want to laugh, laugh, there are no outsiders here!" After the Zhai family left, there were only the two of them left, and the subordinates were waiting outside, and they didn't dare to eavesdrop on the master's speech.
"Poof! It's so interesting to see the third uncle angry! Cheng Yiyao couldn't help but laugh quietly.
"That's because my grandmother is in trouble with him right now!" Situ You looked at Cheng Yiyao with a faint smile, "If grandmother is still helping the third uncle as before, then she will say, 'The third daughter-in-law is like this now, what is wrong with you, who is a sister-in-law, can it be that you are still stingy, this bit of silver can't be done, do you want the old woman to paste it to you', and then the mother will still have to surrender." β
Listening to Situ You's Gujing Wubo's tone, imitating Situ Old Lady Cheng Yiyao laughed even more, but she also knew that what he said was right, if Old Lady Situ helped the third master, they would have no way at all, after all, the old lady was an elder, she really said something like that, if the second room still refused to help, it would be disobedient and unfilial, Situ Xuankang still had to mix in the officialdom, and he couldn't ruin his reputation because of this, and he still had to spend some silver to buy a quiet place and let the third room take advantage of it.
The family can be chaotic, the children can be disrespectful, and the mother can be disrespectful to the old, but Situ Xuankang, who is the imperial doctor, cannot spread the reputation of unfilial piety and unkindness, even if the relationship with Mrs. Situ is stiff in recent years, he still has to be filial, the chaos in the family is nothing, but it can make the saint more assured, if the family is really ironclad, and the relationship with several in-laws is also harmonious, he should worry about whether he has raised a powerful minister.
"Anyway, you don't have to worry about the third room in the future, the rest has nothing to do with us for the time being, right?" Cheng Yiyao can think about it.
"Yes!" Situ You smiled indulgently, wanting to rub her hair, but she was afraid of messing up the bun, so she finally flicked her forehead instead.
"What!" Cheng Yiyao rubbed her forehead, although it didn't hurt, but he had nothing to do with himself, she probably didn't find that her tone was coquettish, not like accusation but like coquettishness.
Situ You looked at Cheng Yiyao and laughed, Cheng Yiyao couldn't help but be stunned, she had never seen such Situ You, he has always been restrained and calm, and a little indifferent, even if he laughs, it is faint, and even more often laughing is just a simple action, how have he ever seen him so wanton.
