Chapter 134: Fierce Confrontation
Du family.
He sat unceremoniously on the main seat this time, and asked the maid to take this and that. While peeking at the expression of Li Zhuang who was sitting at the bottom, but he lowered his head and looked deeply shocked, and He Shi was not sure what Cheng DΓΉ was going to deal with today. You can only take one step at a time. As soon as she arrived in the town, she saw so many people gathered in front of the gate of the Du family, and she squeezed forward curiously, and saw such a good show. Okay, Du, you are very successful in front of my son, don't you, I don't believe that I can't fix you. He is ready to show her claws and clean up this lawless little demon.
After He Shi poured a stomach of water, Du Shi appeared in the living room with the support of another maid, and did not salute He Shi, sat down and faced Li Zhuang.
He didn't care, he didn't respect her as a person in his heart, and it didn't matter if he wanted these forms of salute or something. She said, "Fourth daughter-in-law, what have you been doing for so long?" β
Du Shi saw that the doctor personally treated Tracy's injuries before coming over, in fact, she didn't want to come over at all, but she also wanted to see what tricks He had in mind. Because Li Zhuang is here, when the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law fight each other sooner or later, only by knowing oneself and knowing the other can one not be defeated. Du Shi covered his mouth and yawned, and the hanging sleeve blocked the taunt that flashed in Du Shi's eyes, an old woman in the countryside really regarded her as the master of the family.
"Old lady, this is the Du family, not the Li family, if you want to put up a shelf, please go home and put it up. Our eldest lady is kind, but it doesn't mean that anyone can step on two feet. What Du Shi couldn't say was naturally done by the maid Cuibei beside him.
There was not a hint of anger in He's tone: "Oh, who am I from your eldest lady?" β
Cuibei said reluctantly: "Mother-in-law." β
"Then who are you from your eldest lady?" He is still angry.
Cuibei is not a fool, so he naturally understands the meaning of He's words. opened his mouth, but finally chose to shut up.
"Looks like you know." Ho's face changed. grabbed the teacup on the coffee table and threw it out, and said angrily: "I know what kind of thing I am, and I dare to speak without going up or down." Who taught you? Go and make me tea again! β
Cuibei stood still, and He stared at her well, until Du nodded and Cuibei left.
"Mother-in-law is so majestic." Du Shi said meaningfully.
He Shi smiled at Du Shi, then changed his face, and pointed to the other maid in the house, "You, go and fetch me a basin of water, I want warm water, I want to wash my hands." β
was repeatedly slapped in the face in public. No matter how good Du Shirao is, he doesn't have a good face, and said loudly: "Mother-in-law, if you have anything to say, just say it, why bother with a subordinate." β
"Isn't that what a subordinate should do? How it gets into your mouth becomes a problem. He raised his eyebrows in surprise and said, "Could it be that your Du family bought maids to offer them as ancestors, but I have seen them again." Believe me go out and talk to someone, there will be a lot of people who will like to hear it. β
Du Shi's face changed, this was her first official confrontation with He. Because they don't live together, and Li Zhuang is in her house. He Shi was still stiff in front of her. I didn't expect an old woman in the countryside to understand threats and step on ideas.
"Isn't my mother-in-law afraid of being called ungrateful?"
"You call me mother-in-law, I will be said to be ungrateful when I call a maid, and I am really ashamed to be a mother-in-law. Don't worry, I'll go out and admit my mistake in front of everyone later. I'm just an old woman in the countryside, how can I move your Du family's expensive maids. It's really a blessing and a long life. Rest assured, my face is worthless. I'm not afraid of losing face. β
I still want you to be ashamed, and she can't hold He's back. Don't let her go out and talk nonsense. Du Shi lost his temper, got up and saluted, and took the initiative to retreat: "Mother-in-law, I have been in poor health these days, and I have neglected to discipline these maids, and I ask you to have a lot of adults, don't mind." β
If it weren't for He Shi staring at Du Shi's movements all the time, the slight bending of the waist really couldn't tell that Du Shi was saluting.
He Shi let Du Shi go for the time being, glanced at Li Zhuang, and then nodded to Du Shi and said: "Pregnant people are not in good spirits, and it is inevitable that there will be some mistakes in the management of the backyard." But if you are the mistress of this house, you have to set up the rules, like today, a maid who dares to be sharp at the master's house should be cleaned up, and there are no rules, so as not to be looked down upon by others. β
Du Shi was about to speak, the door was suddenly pushed open, Cuibei walked in with a tea cup, and the words of the two had to be temporarily ended.
He picked up the tea offered by Cuibei, opened the lid and made a gesture to drink, and suddenly put down the teacup and smiled inexplicably at Cuibei: "You are staring at me so nervously, shouldn't you spit in my tea?" β
"Nope." Cuibei subconsciously shook his head. I panicked, how did she know?
"Then you give me a drink." Ho didn't believe it. Although she doesn't know much about the twists and turns inside the mansion door, but the two of them have an unpleasant quarrel, will she still be kind enough to serve you tea? If you don't add some ingredients, spitting is considered merciful. Anyway, in the tea, who can see it?
Cuibei stiffened and didn't move, Du Shi jumped out and sludge: "If the mother-in-law dislikes the tea, just change a cup, why bother with the maids?" β
He nodded: "That's right, it's just a subordinate, and I lost my identity with them." β
Du Shi had some unsightly faces, but she couldn't do it, even if she was vague, after all, the maid was a subordinate. He raised his sleeves, and soon a new cup of tea was served.
He Shi lifted the lid and sniffed it, and said: "Fourth daughter-in-law, it seems that you maids also watch the dishes and dishes, and if you don't beat and knock, my wife can't drink such a good tea." β
is really an old woman, obviously it is the same tea, and she was stunned by her as if she was reluctant. Du Shi felt that if she talked to He Shi again, she would be angry to death, so she held her stomach and pretended to be uncomfortable.
Cuibei hurriedly stroked Du's abdomen, half respectful and half threatening: "Mrs. in-laws, please also accumulate virtue in your mouth, our young lady is still pregnant, and she can't be stimulated." If I do anything to drive away with a stick later, it will be the heart of the protector, and I ask you to forgive me for one or two. β
He slammed the teacup in his hand on the coffee table, startling Cuibei, and heard He Shi instruct Li Zhuang: "Fourth, go and find the best doctor in the town, immediately, go now." β
The last few words He almost shouted out, the war between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is always a dilemma for the son, no matter who wins or loses in the end, He doesn't want Li Zhuang to be uncomfortable here. Even if He knew that Du was pretending, she had to ask for a doctor, because it was not her who lived with Du, but her son, Li Zhuang. He's the one who really calls the shots.
The sudden roar woke Li Zhuang from his sluggishness, and thought that something was wrong with Du Shi, Li Zhuang almost subconsciously looked up at Du Shi, and then ran out of the living room non-stop to find a doctor.
"Cuibei, go and close the door, you are also waiting outside, you are not allowed to come in without my orders." As soon as Li Zhuang left, Du Shi returned to normal, raised the ash that did not exist with his sleeve, and said casually.
"Miss, I'm not at ease." Cui Bei said as he glared at He with vigilant eyes. Without her by her side, what if He suddenly got into trouble? The young lady is pregnant again, how can she be the opponent of the He family who does the habitual work?
Du Shi didn't speak, stared straight at He. The latter didn't say anything, and the old sound of the tea was like no one.
In the end, Du Shi gave in and said, "Go ahead." β
Cuibei was about to say something more, and he received Du Shi's warning look. Cuibei pursed his lips unwillingly, glared at He Shi who had no posture, saluted Du Shi, closed the door and walked out.
When He and Du's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were left in the room, He finally stopped sipping the tea, put down the teacup, took off his shoes and crossed his legs, as if sitting on his own kang as relaxed and comfortable, and said, "You are very smart." β
Du Shi slowly picked up the cup of chrysanthemum tea, opened the lid and blew it gently, closed the lid and looked up and said, "Thank you mother-in-law for the compliment." Mother-in-law is very confident, but this is my Du family, and a little accident can't be related to you......" Du Shi said very slowly, paying attention to He's expression by the way. But she was disappointed, the expression on He's face has not changed in the slightest, Du Shi lost interest, put the teacup on the coffee table, "I think my mother-in-law doesn't seem to be a pestle at all." β
He is also the granddaughter of the former village chief, and her knowledge and etiquette are higher than those in the same village. She has a bit of a chivalrous demeanor, so she is uneven. The reason why she kept putting away her claws in front of Du Shi was just because she felt that she had received the favor of others and then seemed ungrateful to her big and small voices, and her son went to another family, so he was more tolerant of Du and compared his heart to his heart, and Du Shi was able to treat Li Zhuang with the same leniency. But it seems that she has always been self-righteous.
A little accident, that is, threatening the child? He smiled, "In front of so many people, you don't care about the fetus in your womb, will I be rare?" I have all my grandchildren, and there is not much in your belly, and one less is not too little. Even if you can't give birth, there are naturally women who can give birth to my son, who do you think you are? β
"Mother-in-law, do you dare to say this in front of Li Zhuang?" It's one thing to be unwilling to give birth, and it's another thing to be disliked, Du Shi asked through gritted teeth.
"Don't dare." He said calmly.
Du Shi grinned at the corners of her lips, and she knew that Li Zhuang was He's weakness.
"But what if I find out that Zicong and Zimo are not the children of the fourth child?"
Du Shi stood up suddenly, and said with cold eyebrows: "What do you mean by this?" β
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became sharp. (To be continued......)
