Chapter 520: Fiancé
When Du Rongzhi returned home, Shen Qinghan took care of the outer room, and the news that he was stopped by his fiancé had already spread in the Guogong Mansion.
Because of the delay on this trip, although Du Rongzhi felt that this matter was a bit strange, she didn't think much about it, so she hurriedly went back to the room to change her clothes, and refreshed herself, and went to Mrs. Song's place to serve.
As soon as I entered the house, I saw that the three ladies had already come, the fourth young lady Zhao, and the third young lady Jia sat quietly next to their mother-in-law. I don't know what they were talking about just now, at this time, the expressions on everyone's faces were a little solemn, and the eldest lady Shen couldn't hide her shame and anger, and her eyes were a little red.
Only the second lady's overly flexible Danfeng eyes looked at this for a while, and looked at that for a while, with a smug look of schadenfreude.
Seeing Du Rongzhi coming in from outside, she deliberately smiled and asked, "Is the eldest nephew and daughter-in-law back...... Did you hear—"
Before she finished speaking, Old Madam Song coughed lightly.
Facing the latter's displeased gaze, the second lady secretly pursed her lips and did not dare to speak again.
Old Madam Song asked Du Rongzhi, "Is this just coming back from Chen's Mansion?" Can you see their old lady? ”
Du Rongzhi laughed softly, "See...... She also asked her granddaughter-in-law to say hello to her grandmother. ”
Old Madam Song bowed slightly, and listened to the second lady who had been interrupted before and said disapprovingly, "The eldest nephew and daughter-in-law are too, go to other people's homes as guests, how can you stay until this time and come back......" She didn't dare to express her dissatisfaction with Old Madam Chen, so she could only pick Du Rongzhi's thorn.
Du Rongzhi hurriedly explained, "The second aunt misunderstood, it's not that I left too late, but there was something wrong on the road, so I delayed it......" She said with a pause, hesitantly glanced at Shen Shi who was obviously absent-minded next to her, and whispered, "Because someone on Zhengyang Street collided with the car of Lord He of the Supervision Yuan...... The road was blocked, so my nephew came back late. ”
The second lady's eyes lit up after hearing this, and she quickly glanced at the eldest lady, pretending to be surprised, "Zhengyang Street, isn't that the ......?"
Du Rongzhi pursed her lips in embarrassment, and said softly, "Listen to the people who went to check...... It seems that the second cousin of Uncle Shen's family saw a play, and now the good friend of the play's hometown has come to ......"
"This is a non-commissioned thing!" Shen couldn't help but scold with hatred, because he saw everyone looking at him, he hurriedly got up and pleaded, "My daughter-in-law is out of shape......
Old Madam Song waved her hand and said commonplacely, "It's not uncommon for a child of this size to coax those foxy and dirty things away for a while, but it's nothing...... However, the in-laws' uncle's wife should indeed manage and control the children in the family, otherwise she would dare to buy a private house outside to support the servants at a young age, and she will have it in the future? ”
Shen was embarrassed and indignant, and replied repeatedly, "Mother has taught me a ...... lesson"
Seeing this, Du Rongzhi thoughtfully relieved, "Mother, don't worry too much...... According to the daughter-in-law's good-natured appearance, it may not be really a picture, but I am afraid that it is true that she is very poor and wants to get some money to spend. Later, I gave him some money, and made him confess to the charge of planting false accusations, and it was over. She paused, frowned again and said helplessly, "It's just that he made such a fuss, but the matter of Cousin Shen's outer room has spread......
Shen Qinghan is now at the age of saying that he is married, his family background is good, his appearance is handsome, and there is a lot of room for choice, but at this time, there was a scandal of supporting the servants, and he also caused official non-......
Shen Shi hated so much that the roots of his teeth were about to be crushed, looking at Du Rongzhi's sympathetic and helpless eyes, he only said coldly, "That's also his own fault, and he has nothing to do with others!" Today's Literature Network
Du Rongzhi pursed her lower lip lightly, and then stopped talking, and only quietly walked to Zhao's side and sat down.
Because she didn't see Shen Shuyan, she thought about it and asked Zhao in a low voice, "Why didn't you see your second brother and sister?" ”
Zhao covered his lips and replied in a low voice, "The second sister-in-law was so angry that her eyes were swollen from crying, and she had just gone back and forth to the old lady, and she had already led the family to ......."
Du Rongzhi bowed slightly, and said in her heart that it was difficult for the Shen family to produce such a good bamboo shoot as Shen Shuyan, but I was afraid that there would be more uncomfortable things for her in the future...... sighed in his heart, and then stopped speaking, only silently listening to the elders.
This night, for Shen Qinghan's affairs, the eldest lady has been in a bad mood, although the second lady is secretly happy, but she does not dare to make a mistake in front of the old lady, the third lady Song does not know what is on her mind and is a little absent-minded, it is because of this dinner that the three concubines eat very quietly, fortunately, the Zhao family said two witty words from time to time to make the old lady Song happy, and Du Rongzhi observed the words and sang a harmony, so that the atmosphere was not too dull.
After dinner, everyone dispersed, and Du Rongzhi was about to go back to his yard, when he heard Mrs. Song San behind her raise her voice slightly, "Rong Zhi wait." ”
Du Rongzhi was thinking about her thoughts, when she heard someone call her, she was stunned for a moment, and when she reacted, she hurriedly turned around and asked respectfully, "What else does the third aunt command?" ”
In fact, since Song Lan personally identified Du Rongzhi as pushing down the Fu family four years ago, indirectly causing her to lose the child in her belly, although the two rooms are still moving around normally over the years, they are no longer as close as before, and there is almost no private contact. So at this time, Mrs. Song suddenly stopped her, and Du Rongzhi was a little surprised in her heart.
A trace of hesitation flashed in Mrs. Song's eyes, and after a while, she smiled, "Actually, it's nothing, I just want you to come back from the south and our mother and daughter haven't had a chance to talk...... If you have time to spare, you might as well go and sit in my yard. and Sister Lan...... She has a lot to say to you. ”
Du Rongzhi looked at her quietly and smiled, "I know......"

When Song Zixun came back from socializing outside in the evening, Du Rongzhi had already changed her bedclothes, and was half-leaning on the couch, holding a book in her hand.
Song Zi walked over slowly, pulled her book casually, and frowned, "Didn't you say that reading books at night hurts your eyes...... Why don't you always listen? ”
Du Rongzhi couldn't help but smile when she saw that he was coming, "Isn't this waiting for you...... Always find something to do. "Tell someone to fetch the decanter soup.
Song Zi said, "No need, I didn't drink much." He grabbed her again and smiled, "But what do you tell me?" ”
Du Rongzhi poked him lightly and said angrily, "It's like you don't know......"
Song Zixun only felt that her poke and anger were all amorous, and he couldn't help hugging her and laughing, "I heard that you also bumped into it today?" ”
Du Rongzhi nodded, although she had expected that this matter would have nothing to do with Song Zixun, but seeing that he did not deny it at this time, she still couldn't help but be surprised, "That cold fiancé is really someone you are looking for someone to pretend?" ”
