Chapter 163: Dong Jisheng's Dilemma
Since he knew that the crisis of the Li family's rice shop was due to the threat that the Li family had threatened Lin Zhu, Li Dabai was not in power, and even Dong Jisheng was very big.
"Brother Dong Xian, this, I really can't pull my face down to apologize to a cheap girl in the countryside and apologize, do you think there is any better way?" Li Dabai was in Dong Jisheng's study, and said with a sigh.
"Is face or business important?" Dong Jisheng saw that he was so unmotivated, and he looked like he hated iron but not steel, it stands to reason that Dong Jisheng should call Li Dabai a brother-in-law, but the Liu family was promoted from a concubine to a flat wife, so Li Dabai can't afford to be his brother-in-law. "When business resumes, your face will come back, do you still need me to say this?"
"Alas, I don't know this truth, but now that girl is busy with the New Year, she avoids the people I sent over, she, she is too shameless." Li Dabai said hatefully.
Dong Jisheng gave him a blank look, what is it called people to be shameless, you offended people to death, first looked down on others, and after being dumped, you wanted to frame others, and no one would care about you if you were replaced. But of course, you can't say that, "I think you'd better be more sincere, go for yourself." ”
"Just because she's worth my visit?" In the final analysis, Li Dabai still doesn't want to admit his mistakes, and he has no sincerity at all to apologize, so of course Lin Zhu won't give him a good face.
"Aren't you afraid that your business will collapse from now on? Just keep the door closed? Dong Jisheng asked rhetorically.
"Of course not." Li Dabai was anxious when he heard this, and said in his heart that business must not be defeated. Speaking of this, he suddenly salivated and smiled at Dong Jisheng's flattering smile, "This still needs your help, Brother Dong Xian." ”
"Me?" Dong Jisheng raised his eyebrows, looking at him with a little unkindness, "Do you want Benzhi County to bow down to a country girl?" "Dong Jisheng said in his heart, Li Dabai, Li Dabai, you are also fat, you have made your own sins, you actually want Benzhi County to wipe your buttocks, the most shameless person is you.
"Of course not, don't get me wrong." Li Dabai shook his head and waved his hand. I was afraid that Dong Jisheng would be unhappy and drive him out. "I mean, isn't your eldest daughter befriending that country girl and letting her make peace with her." Isn't it the best of both worlds? ”
Li Dabai's abacus is very fine. But the reality is very skinny. Since Dong Jisheng grounded Dong Yuzhen for no reason. He never went to see her again, Mrs. Lin became more and more cold to Dong Jisheng, and Dong Wenbo, who knew the truth of the matter, was also very disappointed in Dong Jisheng. Now that husband and wife, father and son are like strangers when they meet, it is more difficult for Dong Jisheng to bow his head and beg his daughter than to ask Li Dabai to apologize to Lin Zhudao.
Dong Jisheng's face was embarrassed, he really couldn't open his mouth with Dong Yuzhen.
"Brother Dong Xian, now that the New Year is over, I am going to move up again, but you see that my brother's current situation may not be able to help you anymore." Seeing Dong Jisheng's reluctance, Li Dabai worked his weakness.
Now that the problem has shifted to Dong Jisheng's head, is face or future important? Undoubtedly, of course, the future. But the relationship between Dong Jisheng and Mrs. Lin has now dropped to the freezing point, but begging her is more uncomfortable than slapping him twice in public.
With Dong Yuzhen as the middleman, it is indeed the best choice to make peace, Dong Jisheng can get a large amount of benefits from Li Dabai, and he expressed his attitude in Muyue Commercial Bank, and Lin Zhu will not have any resentment against him, so he can count it in one fell swoop. The only thing that is difficult is how to convince Mrs. Lin? Do you want to give her the stewardship again?
But the Liu family is not easy to get along with, this housekeeper's power to go back and forth between the two ladies also makes the subordinates of the family laugh, and Dong Jisheng also needs the help of the Liu family, so he must not make the Liu family unhappy at this time.
After thinking about it, Dong Jisheng felt that it was easier to persuade Dong Yuzhen, this eldest daughter has always wanted to get her own attention, and it should be easy to achieve her goal by saying a few good words to her.
So for the sake of his future, Dong Jisheng had to go to Dong Yuzhen's yard.
Since Mrs. Lin learned that the Li family's rice shop had an accident, she understood that Lin Zhu had also taken action, so her daughter's grievances for no reason should be compensated soon. But looking at her daughter's increasingly thin body, Mrs. Lin gritted her teeth with hatred for Dong Jisheng.
She told Dong Yuzhen about Li Ji's rice shop, "Zhen'er, I think it won't be long before they think of Muyue Shangxing and teach them a lesson when they are angry with Miss Lin Zhu." Dong Yuzhen looked at Mrs. Lin, she didn't understand what she meant, she also didn't have a good impression of the Li family, the Li family and the Liu family were the same dog, Dong Yuyao and the girl of the Li family squeezed the acne on their faces together, and this tone finally calmed down when she saw the Li family so unlucky. Mother, what does this have to do with us? ”
"What's the matter?" Mrs. Lin said with disdain, "Your father, who has the most important future, maybe he won't come to beg you?" Mrs. Lin doesn't have a good impression of Dong Jisheng now, and she can take her anger out on her innocent daughter, but she doesn't feel guilty at all afterwards, and she hasn't visited her daughter once, such a father makes Dong Yuzhen feel embarrassed.
"Please?" Dong Yuzhen thought about it and understood, "Do they want me to go to Sister Xiaozhu to intercede?" ”
"How could Li Dabai easily bow his head to Miss Lin Zhu? They also knew that you were good friends with her, and that it would be easier to find you. Mrs. Lin's tone was full of contempt.
"I won't go, the Li family is so excessive to Sister Xiaozhu, and they should be punished, who let them first look down on people, and then send people to plant dirty crops, they deserve to be so unlucky." Dong Yuzhen was very gloating about what happened to the Li family.
Dong Jisheng was in Liu's room, sitting a little depressed.
"Sir, please have tea." Liu walked to Dong Jisheng's side and gently put down a cup of tea, "It's really hard work, master, you have worked so hard for our family." ”
"You're still the sweetest." Liu's comfort was just a timely rain for Dong Jisheng, which temporarily relieved the depression in his heart.
"Let the concubine be concerned, in fact, this matter is also simple." Liu stood behind Dong Jisheng and gently pinched his shoulder.
"Tell me how to make it simple." Dong Jisheng, who was worried about how to ask Dong Yuzhen for help, listened to Liu's words and asked with some expectation.
"The eldest lady is the daughter of the master, and it is natural for this daughter to solve the problems for her father, and the master does not need to be so sad at all." The Liu family doesn't care whether Dong Yuzhen was wronged or not, this is related to the wealth of her sister's family, and it is completely right for Dong Yuzhen to beg Lin Zhu in her opinion.
"You're right, what other reason does my daughter need to do things for her father?" Dong Jisheng suddenly felt that he was just asking for troubles just now, which was quite simple. "What would I do without you?" Dong Jisheng patted Liu's hand on his shoulder and sighed.
"Of course, master, if Yao'er can help you, the concubine is also willing to let Yao'er come forward, presumably my sister and the concubine have the same idea." Liu pulled Mrs. Lin into the water. The Lin family must be watching their jokes, as long as they can add to the Lin family's blockage, the Liu family will definitely spare no effort to do it.
"Hmph, if she is as good as you are for the sake of the master, the master and I will not treat her like this." Thinking of Mrs. Lin's recent attitude towards him, Dong Jisheng was also very unhappy. "If she knows each other, the lord will have to compensate their mother and daughter, if she doesn't know each other, hum."
"Does the lord want to give the housekeeper's rights to my sister again?" Liu clenched his fists, and his voice carried infinite grievances. "You do this, how can you let the concubine raise her head in this family?"
"Don't worry," Dong Jisheng comforted Liu, "No one dares to look down on you, and the family will always let you take care of it." Master, who else can you trust in this backyard? ”
"Sir!" Liu's sweet voice was attached to his ear and came into Dong Jisheng's ear, and the crispy and numb feeling spread all over his body. "The concubine will definitely not live up to the high expectations of the master."
Dong Jisheng, who had been teased by Liu's words, couldn't hold back his excitement anymore when he heard her voice, and hugged her thin waist tightly and walked to the inner room.
The next day, Dong Jisheng walked to Mrs. Lin's courtyard with great satisfaction. After a night of warmth and soft-spoken comfort with Liu's family, Dong Jisheng felt that it was easy to meet the request of asking Dong Yuzhen to help him find Lin Zhu to make peace.
"Madam, the master is here." Mrs. Lin, who was dining, frowned without a trace when she heard the words of her subordinates. She naturally knew why Dong Jisheng came, but what she didn't expect was that he came over so easily.
"Please sit down in the flower hall first, and I'll go over in a while." Mrs. Lin waved her sleeves and sent someone down.
Then she began to eat slowly. "Madam, aren't you going to see the master?" Mother Zhao asked softly beside her.
"Let him wait first." Mrs. Lin didn't raise her head and said, "I know very well what he is here for." I just don't know what to do, he doesn't know what to do. ”
Mother Zhao really didn't understand what Mrs. Lin was fighting, but these were not what she should inquire about as a subordinate, so she had to accompany her.
Dong Jisheng, who was sitting in the flower hall and waiting, was very leisurely at first, but time passed little by little, and he didn't see Mrs. Lin appear, he began to be a little annoyed, and secretly hated Mrs. Lin for a while, but there was no way, who called him the one who was at the loss?
So he could only be patient and wait anxiously in the flower hall.
Mrs. Lin saw that the time was almost up, and it was time to meet Dong Jisheng, so accompanied by Zhao's mother, she got up and walked towards the flower hall. (To be continued......)
