Chapter Seventy-Nine: What to Laugh at

It was past noon, and the sun was turning westward.

The main hall of Songhe Hall, which was originally bright, was also dimmed at this moment.

In the second room on the other side, Mrs. Wu interrogated Mama Feng and reassured her before returning to the hall in the middle and instructed Mama Qin to call Du Shi and Danyang.

The old lady Wu, who sat down first and closed her eyes to recuperate, was hidden in the shadows.

Her motionless and upright posture was accompanied by a weak breath caused by her old age and frailty. If you don't speak, I'm afraid that no one will be able to detect that there is someone above.

Even if you see it, you will probably sweep it away, thinking that it is a wooden carving or other utensils.

Therefore, Duchess Du, who was slowly bypassing the screen, only stared at Mama Feng who was standing at the bottom of the steps, and did not see the old lady Wu at the top.

Because of this, she was full of strangeness, and asked Mama Feng casually:

"Did Mother go back?"

However, the person who came to the old lady's henchmen a moment ago, this is just a blink of an eye, and the old-fashioned mother-in-law can change her mind? It shouldn't be like this.

If it is said that it is because the mother-in-law does not want to see Danyang, the behavior is a little abnormal. But she wouldn't be so untrustworthy, especially when she was still there. Although it is a family, this face and the shelf in front of her are very important.

Du Shi asked, and looked at the opposite side curiously, behind the screen was placed in the hall, and the beauty couch used by Mrs. Wu during her lunch break.

Because she wanted to come, Mrs. Wu might just take a nap there, leaving Mama Feng here to make things difficult for Danyang.

If that's the case, she's not going to be able to do it.

Just when Du Shi was secretly worried, Mama Feng, who had just been cleaned up and beaten by Mrs. Wu, was not having a good time.

Now, she doesn't dare to make it public, and she is too close to the Duchess of the Kingdom. But although she can't be too close, she doesn't dare to hang the Duchess so directly.

The other party is in control, the key to the future fate of himself and his family. Of course, at the moment, this power is still in the hands of the old lady, so she can't afford to offend both sides!

Therefore, after completing the judgment and deliberation in an instant, Mama Feng only lowered her eyes, with a respectful and detached attitude, and said in a low voice:

"Please forgive the old slave for trespassing, and please speak softly, the old lady is raising her spirits."

Du Shi's heart sank, but after nodding indifferently on his face, he respectfully and lightened his steps more than before, turned around and walked to the top of the Luohan couch to stand quietly.

In fact, if it weren't for the reception of distinguished guests, Du, who is the current Duchess of the Kingdom, could have walked aside by herself and sat on the official hat chair under Mrs. Wu.

But now, especially just now, her slightly disrespectful and light-hearted attitude is all in the eyes of the mother-in-law above!

Therefore, as shrewd as Du Shi, he didn't want to anger Mrs. Wu over trivial matters at this moment.

However, because of this, Danyang, which came here as a guest, was cheaper.

So Du Shi had to use the standing salute, looked at the little girl as if there was no one next to her, and sat down to the right hand of Mrs. Wu with a grin.

"Grandmother, are you sleepy after lunch? I won't bother my granddaughter, so I'll take my leave. ”

Danyang said as he spoke, and he really stood up directly.

This, this wild girl, is gone?!

Du Shi's eyes widened in surprise for a moment, as if he was eager to rush forward, pinching Danyang's arm and nailing the person to the original ground before he would give up.

But she didn't need to speak, when Mrs. Wu heard this, she didn't have the heart to hang Danyang anymore.

"Didn't you say you came to see your grandmother? Why did you come and go in such a hurry, and you didn't even want to say a word, and you were leaving? ”

seemed to be kind and affectionate words, but Old Madam Wu only used a flat surface to say in a deep voice without ups and downs throughout the whole process.

The two phases are superimposed, and the sense of weirdness and dislocation can be forced out in an instant, and the first person who listens is covered in cold sweat.

But Danyang has heard such words since he was a child, and he has long been accustomed to them. And in her previous life, she once thought that such a strange expression was just a little special in the way the other party cared for and loved her.

Although, in her previous life, she had seen through it and was used to this kind of trick.

But now that I experienced it again and heard it with my own ears, I still couldn't help but feel a burst of disgust in my heart.

Secretly taking a deep breath, Danyang re-put on a smiling face and said:

"How could grandmother blame Danyang so wrong? When you say this, don't you accuse me of being hypocritical and unworthy of being a human offspring? ”

Old Madam Wu was stunned for a moment, and after squinting her eyes and looking at Danyang twice, she reassured herself in her heart that it was just a coincidence.

The little girl who has always spoken thoughtlessly, where can she see her true intentions?

But this soft nail still made Mrs. Wu's mood turn sharply in an instant, and even her patience was reduced by two points.

"You girl, talking nonsense again. Forget it, don't mention the jokes. How's your mother's body? ”

In order to be able to remove Danyang's heart, Old Madam Wu's tone was two points kinder than before, and she deliberately showed a smile.

When Danyang heard this, his face was not obvious, he still had an innocent smile, but in his heart, he instantly raised the spirit of twelve.

Oh, here's the big thing.

"Not so good. The old lady in the palace said that my mother was weak and pregnant, and she had to stay in bed to recuperate and make up for it. ”

Although Danyang's words are half-true and half-false, the logic is self-consistent, and there is Doctor Wu who can round her afterwards. So now, she answered very smoothly, just like when she had no heart in her last life.

When Mrs. Wu heard this, she responded in a breathless voice.

She couldn't see how she was in a mood, but Danyang, who had long been familiar with her temperament and demeanor, immediately understood that the old feudal monarch of the Guogong Mansion was already in a very unhappy mood.

But that's not all, Danyang smiled, and immediately spoke, as if he had just remembered, and added:

"But my grandmother was really well-informed. I thought that after the murder went out at the gate of the princess's mansion, the mansion followed Jing Zhaoyin's instructions and closed the door, and no news could be transmitted. ”

Danyang said casually, and Mrs. Wu didn't pay attention to what she heard. I only half-closed my eyes, I don't know what I'm thinking seriously, and my brows are tied into a dead knot.

Therefore, after Danyang's words were finished, Mrs. Wu only opened her mouth very perfunctorily, made an excuse at random, fooled a child, and said slowly:

"Oh, it's not that grandmother is worried about your mother. Therefore, I just asked Mama Feng two more words, and it is naturally clear. ”

As soon as the words came out, the laughter like silver bells had already spilled into all corners of the room.

The laughter was too abrupt, and after the other people in the room were startled, they all cast their gazes at Danyang with attention and incomprehension.

Mrs. Wu was stunned for a moment, and her heart was inexplicably on fire.

As if she didn't need Danyang to say a word, she had clearly heard the other party's ridicule of her from this burst of unbridled laughter.

"What are you laughing at?"

Because of displeasure, when Old Madam Wu spoke, the mask of peace that she had deliberately maintained before fell apart in an instant, and there was only undisguised disgust and contempt in her tone and eyes.
