The mother-in-law shouted loudly, and the loud voice easily penetrated the doors and windows, apparently arguing with someone.

As soon as Lu Zhu opened the door to check the situation, she saw Pei'er trotting over with a frightened face, and said, "Young lady, the old lady is here, and she is bringing a large group of mothers-in-law." ”

"Aunt Tong sit for a moment, I'll go see what's going on." Zheng Lingyi commanded, got up and strode out.

Aunt Tong nodded, and stood up with Zhou Niang supporting each other.

Pei'er and Luzhu both went out with Zheng Lingyi, and there were only two sisters in the room, who were at a loss for a while, and only after a while did they carefully sit down next to the round stool.

The courtyard was crowded with people, Qiu Pozi and Wang Pozi were both injured, one pressed his waist and was so painful that he couldn't stand, and the other was slightly better, his hair was scattered, and he barely stood with the other person on his feet.

Qiao's arrogantly looked at Zheng Lingyi who came out of the side hall, she was surrounded by a large group of mothers-in-law, no wonder she dared to break into the quiet house.

The night before yesterday, he knew that Jingju had sent a servant with abdominal pain out for treatment overnight, and Qiao's already knew that Wan Yuanyuan's method was unsuccessful.

Now that Wu is unharmed for the entrance exam, she is naturally panicked, but the more she has no confidence, the more she has to pretend to be arrogant.

Originally, Zheng Lingyi didn't know what was going on, but when he saw Wu Cong who was following behind his mother-in-law, Zheng Lingyi almost sneered.

He was vigilant, knowing that Zheng Lingyi had brought Aunt Tong back to the quiet house, and immediately arched Qiao's future trouble.

You don't have to think about it to know that Wu Cong has no ability to read, but he has a set of fanning the flames. It's really a dog that bites people without barking, and it has a muffled temperament, and it makes trouble one after another.

Motioning to Pei'er to take the seriously injured Qiu Pozi away from this filthy place, Zheng Lingyi slowly walked towards Qiao's family.

She smiled brightly and said innocently: "Mother-in-law? Fourth brother? What is such a big battle for? Got a thief at home? ”

"A dog can't spit out ivory from his mouth, where are the thieves under my rule!?"

Qiao Shi hated Zheng Lingyi's calm appearance when he saw it, as if he didn't take anything seriously, and the sky couldn't fall on her.

Zheng Lingyi nodded as if he didn't understand, and asked again: "What are the mother-in-law and fourth brother doing here, and they also injured my mother-in-law, and they are scared......

"You don't want the wicked to sue first!" Qiao Shi didn't know if he heard what Wu Cong said, so he pointed at Zheng Lingyi and said angrily, "You have been too presumptuous recently, Aunt Tong just made two clothes for her sister, although it is a violation of the rules of the inner house, but even if there is anything, where is your turn to make up your mind?" What do you want to do when you bring people to your yard? ”

Qiao's family finally seized an opportunity, so he naturally had to count Zheng Lingyi well.

Zheng Lingyi glanced at Wu Cong indifferently, and quickly looked away, as if he just saw a speck of dust in the air, insignificant and not worth mentioning.

Wu Congming secretly kept his eyes on Zheng Lingyi, and seeing that she was so disdainful of herself, the sad smile in her eyes suddenly disappeared, and anger replaced her.

Zheng Lingyi lowered his eyes and didn't speak, as if he had nothing to say.

"One by one, do you think you can be the master of your house?" In front of the maidservants and mothers-in-law in the courtyard, Qiao's can be regarded as expressing the depression of the past few days, and she has the upper hand at the moment, and she is very happy in her heart.

"I don't want to accuse Aunt Tong of making clothes for her sister-in-law, who is bored to toss such trivial things all day long. There's just one thing......

Zheng Lingyi said slowly, his eyes sparkling on Wu Cong, like a spark splashed when striking iron.

Wu Cong is not a person who can calm down, just look at him so eagerly to pull Qiao's to come, he can know, hearing what Zheng Lingyi is about to be involved, he hurriedly said: "My aunt has always lived in a simple place, she is the first honest person in this house, the third sister-in-law wants to fight for something, just don't pull her into the water!" ”

This sentence is a bit powerful and profound, and Zheng Lingyi said it as if he wanted to use Aunt Tong to oppose Qiao's family.

Zheng Lingyi frowned, looked at Wu Cong with disgust, and said: "You are now in your prime of life, and you are a man, you don't want to study hard, do some tricks, say some nonsense, mix in the pile of women in the back house to muddy the water, and still enjoy it, it's really useless!" ”

People who have dealt with Zheng Lingyi know that her verbal kung fu has always been powerful, and Qiao's is not really towards Wu Cong, but he is just temporarily using him to suppress Zheng Lingyi.

Listening to Zheng Lingyi's words pointing to Wu Cong, she didn't know how gloating in her heart, she looked at Zheng Lingyi, and then at Wu Cong, planning to watch a good show on the side.

"You! The third sister-in-law is really a powerful mouth, and she is not afraid of committing the crime of tongue! Wu Cong was already at a loss, so he had to use some etiquette dogma to block Zheng Lingyi.

"The fourth brother is very good at distorting the original intention and using it for his own use." Zheng Lingyi didn't even blink his eyes, and said lightly: "The sin of tongue refers to the woman's broken mouth and provoking the restlessness of the house, but the reason why I say a few more words is not because of the fourth brother, you are pleading on my mother-in-law and wronging me?" Fortunately, the fourth brother is a man, if you are a woman, this sin of tongue is appropriate for you. ”

"Wronged you? Isn't my aunt in your retreat? ”

Wu Cong knew that Aunt Tong must be in the quiet house, as long as Aunt Tong came out to sing and harmonize with him, Zheng Lingyi couldn't get rid of it.

Before Zheng Lingyi could speak, the door opened, and Zhou Niang and Aunt Tong walked out together, their eyes were red and swollen, and their expressions were sad.

When Wu Cong saw Aunt Tong like this, he thought that she had been beaten and scolded, so he didn't rush up to comfort her immediately, and there was no trace of distress in his eyes, but he pointed at Zheng Lingyi very excitedly and said, "What else do you have to say now!" ”

has a son like this, Zheng Lingyi feels cold for Aunt Tong.

Aunt Tong and Zhou Niang walked towards Wu Cong, Wu Cong saw that there was something wrong with her look, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly pulled her sleeve, brought her to Qiao's side, and squeezed her eyebrows and said: "Auntie, you quickly tell Mrs., is the third sister-in-law knowing about you and Xiuniang, thinking that the embroidery room is not concerned about her errand, so she wants to ......

Before Wu Cong finished speaking, he slapped Aunt Tong in the face.

Aunt Tong exerted all her strength, this slap beat Wu Cong to the ground, he took a few steps back, covered his face and looked at Aunt Tong in a daze, and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.

This slap hit the child's body, and the pain was in the mother's heart.

Aunt Tong had just heard how Wu Cong was reversing right and wrong, and she didn't understand how the piece of meat that fell from her body had become such a person now.

Her whole face turned red with excitement, "I can't read, I haven't read much, and I can't speak well." The words of the third young lady just now, you listened carefully and thought clearly, and if you think about it, you can still be saved. ”

Hearing Aunt Tong say this, Lu Zhu knew that this matter could not be relied on Zheng Lingyi, she breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at Zheng Lingyi, and saw that she was looking at Aunt Tong, with sympathy in her eyes.

Aunt Tong easily reminded Zheng Lingyi of Aunt Jiang, like Aunt Jiang, she loves her son like her life, she is more humble and obedient than Aunt Jiang.

Zheng Lingyi looked at Aunt Tong's back, in just half an hour, she suddenly aged a lot, and even her back was rickety.

Aunt Tong's slap made the people in the courtyard stunned, and Qiao's was also in the clouds, and said with a puzzled face: "Aunt Tong, which one of you two are this?" ”

Aunt Tong knelt down directly and said to Qiao's family: "Madam, the third young lady invited me and Zhou Niang to have tea today, and I don't know if the fourth young master made lard confused, caused such a incident, and worked for you, it is really a crime that deserves death." ”

Qiao Shi said suspiciously: "Just like this? Then why did you look crying when you came out? ”

"After all, the third young lady is the elder of the fourth young master, and it makes me feel uncomfortable to hear him talk nonsense like this."

Aunt Tong's words are not entirely true, but they are not false.

Qiao's really didn't understand today's events, but she knew that she must have called Wu Cong to give her a call, so she glared at Wu Cong fiercely and said, "I don't know what it means." And he brushed his sleeves away.

Cuilong was half a step behind, and quickly whispered to Wu Cong: "The fourth young master will make it clear to Madame himself." The slave can't help you. ”

Wu Cong glanced coldly at Qiao's departing back, and then turned his head to look at Zheng Lingyi, as if he wanted Zheng Lingyi to be afraid of his gaze.

His gaze was indeed uncomfortable, full of vile thorns, but also with a hint of cowardice.

Aunt Tong was still kneeling on the ground, Zheng Lingyi glanced at Lu Zhu and motioned for her to help Aunt Tong up.

Wu Cong snorted loudly, obviously thinking that Zheng Lingyi was just a rabbit and a fox.

Zheng Lingyi didn't bother to pay attention to what Wu Cong thought of herself, she only did what she wanted to do.

"Actually, it's not like people can't do bad things." Zheng Lingyi said suddenly.

Everyone looked at her inexplicably, wondering why she would say such a thing.

"It's just that if you hurt others, you must benefit yourself, but what you do is not good for others and not for yourself. You hurt your third brother, can you be named on the gold list? Amusing. ”

Zheng Lingyi shook her head and looked at Wu Cong, she really didn't understand, "So, why do you want to do this?" Hiding behind the bushes that day, you saw your third brother wearing that dress to the examination room, did you really feel so happy in your heart? ”

Wu Cong looked at her, his cheeks seemed to be tightened, and he didn't know if he was gritting his teeth to endure something, or preventing himself from blurting out something.

After a moment of stalemate, Wu Cong turned and left. Aunt Tong wanted to catch up, but she hesitantly turned to look at Zheng Lingyi.

What is Zheng Lingyi doing with her? He only nodded.

The courtyard was quiet again, and Pei'er settled down with Mrs. Qiu, and when she returned, she found that the people in the front yard were scattered.

Zheng Lingyi seemed to be unscathed, but Pei'er felt that she was a little sad.

"Sister Luzhu, the young lady hasn't been bullied." Before the door closed, Pell seized the gap and asked.

Lu Zhu shook his head wordlessly, with a faint sigh.
