Chapter 69: Another Trap
Shen Yu gently pulled her hair in a bun and said coldly: "The matter of the second master, you just have to go back to the eldest lady, if you can't do it, go to the old lady, I don't care about the family or power, it's useless for you to look for me." ”
Shen Yu refused decisively, she also had some prestige during her time in the Sheng family, everyone in the family knew that the old lady protected her, and even the eldest lady sometimes had to back down three points, and no one dared to make a mistake.
The family couldn't ask for help, so he left in a huff.
Closing the courtyard door, Hexiang showed a worried look, "Miss, the Sheng family's rules have always been strict, he won't really want to tell the eldest lady, right?" ”
"Of course not." Shen Yu's tone was firm, "If it is really the person who is close to the second master, he must be looking towards the second master in his heart, knowing that the eldest lady is not in harmony with the second master, and he will definitely not go to the eldest lady." If this person came to me on purpose, then he would not be guilty of going to the eldest lady. ”
The night was getting darker, a dark cloud in the sky obscured the moon, and the courtyard was pitch black, except for the dim light of the lanterns under the eaves, like a ghost in the dark, and there was a faint sound of thunder.
"I'm afraid it's going to rain tonight, you quietly inquire, has the second master come back?" Shen Yu said to Hexiang.
The situation was unknown, and Shen Yu had no intention of sleeping, so she got dressed and sat in the living room to wait.
After a short time, Hexiang returned. She pushed the door open, bringing in a cool breeze.
"Miss, the second master didn't go back to Sheng's house, but I heard that the second master should come back this afternoon to talk about business." He Xiang muttered, "I haven't seen the second master for some days, so nothing really will happen, right?" ”
Another muffled thunder sounded in the sky, and Shen Yu stood up suddenly, "Get me an umbrella and a raincoat, and I'll go to the teahouse to have a look." ”
"Miss!" Hexiang hurriedly wanted to stop, "It's going to rain outside, it's going to rain when you go out at this time, so let's find two family members." ”
Shen Yu shook her head, the second master of the Sheng family, who has infinite scenery in the eyes of others, sits on the largest tea house in Qingshui Town, but only she knows that Sheng Tingqing is better than walking on thin ice all the time.
The eldest lady, the second lady, and so many pairs of eyes from top to bottom of the Sheng family stared at him all the time.
If the news of his drunkenness spreads today, the second lady doesn't know how to make a big fuss.
Shen Yu suddenly made up her mind, she held an oil-paper umbrella, carried a lantern, and rushed out of the door.
The Sheng family tea shop was on Changlong Street, and Shen Yu went straight to the backyard and asked the maid to set up a car and go out.
When I arrived at the door of the tea house, the raindrops the size of beans were falling cracklingly.
After getting out of the car, Shen Yu looked back at the long street that was pitch black in the rainstorm, and suddenly felt afraid for a while, she took a deep breath and pushed the door in.
In the second half of the night, the lights on the whole street were turned off, and the people who worked in the tea shop had already gone home from work, and only the side hall was still lit.
The smell of wine was blowing in his face, and in the dim light, there was a man sitting.
"How are you?" Shen Yu stared at this back, and her tone was disdainful.
Sheng Tingwei turned around, his face was flushed from drinking, and his eyes looked at Shen Yu in a daze, "Sister-in-law, I knew you would come, others said that you had a leg with the second child, and I didn't believe it yet." You said that you are a woman's family, and you don't stay at home at night, and you come to the teahouse to have a private meeting with the second child, what else do you have to say? ”
"Full of nonsense!" Shen Yu disdained to theorize with a drunk, and she turned around to leave.
Unexpectedly, Sheng Tingwei suddenly pounced, and he hugged Shen Yu from behind.
Sheng Tingwei leaned closer and took a deep breath, "It's really fragrant, sister-in-law, I know that it is not easy for you to gain a foothold as a woman in the Sheng family, what's the matter, the second child can play, can't I?" ”
Shen Yu gritted her teeth, "You let go of me, I am your sister-in-law, if this matter is known by the old lady, you will have no place to die!" ”
Sheng Tingwei raised his head and laughed, "Shen Yu, you have ruined my good deeds again and again, and the master just wants to teach you a lesson and let you know what it means to be high and thick." ”
"Old lady, do you think I'm really afraid of that old immortal? If you have the ability, you can poke it out, and I want to see which of us dies in front. ”
On the day of the wedding, Sheng Tingwei felt that Shen Yusheng's good appearance was a pity to be a widow at a young age, and he showed favor to Shen Yu several times, but did not get any response.
Sheng Tingwei pressed Shen Yu down on the table, and he rudely tore her clothes, "Shen Yu, you really make Ye love and hate, no matter what, Ye promises to make you happy like a fairy tonight." ”
Shen Yu wanted to scream, but before she could make a sound, a handkerchief was stuffed in her mouth, her hands were tied, and she could only watch Sheng Tingwei unbutton her.
She closed her eyes in pain and burst into tears.
Just when Sheng Tingwei was about to succeed, the door of the side hall was kicked open.
The cold air poured in, Xie Changli broke in, he grabbed Sheng Tingwei's collar and threw it aside like a chicken.
"Brute!" Xie Changli's eyes were scarlet, and he pressed on Xie Tingwei, raising his fist to fight.
"Wait! There is no need for this kind of person to dirty his hands, so as not to make a fishy sound. Shen Yu stood up and pretended to be calm.
Xie Changli was still angry, and when he heard the words, he forcibly suppressed his anger.
After tidying up her clothes, Shen Yu followed Xie Changli out of the house.
It was still raining outside, Xie Changli held up an oil-paper umbrella, and his clothes were already half wet.
The carriage that sent Shen Yu to the teahouse was gone, and Xie Changli personally drove to escort Shen Yu back.
It was pitch black in the carriage, and before Shen Yu's eyes could get used to it, a childish voice came from the corner.
"Mother!"
Sheng Jinxu walked over, his small arm hugged Shen Yu, "Don't be afraid, Xu'er will protect your mother." ”
The child said two short sentences, but Shen Yu burst into tears again.
Just now, she thought that she was going to be completely planted in Sheng Tingwei's hands.
The tolerance of women in the old society was very low and very low, and she was newly married and widowed and was labeled as a husband who killed her, and if she was not clear with Sheng Tingwei again, she could be drowned by spitting Xingzi.
At that moment, she really wanted to die with Sheng Tingwei.
Outside the curtain of the car was a boundless rain curtain, and the cold wind enveloped Shen Yu's body, only the little person beside him stubbornly hugged her and warmed her with his small body.
Shen Yu lowered her head and hugged Sheng Jinxu, her heart regaining warmth little by little.
Xie Changli deliberately drove the carriage very slowly, and when he arrived in front of the Sheng family's gate, Shen Yu had already come back to his senses.
She took Sheng Jinxu's hand and got out of the car, and said to Xie Changli: "What about the third master?" And those who know about it tonight, let them keep their mouths shut. ”
Xie Changli's eyes had calmed down, and he had returned to his usual modest and submissive appearance, and he nodded and said, "Don't worry, young grandmother, I have already asked people to send the third master back, and the others have also ordered it." ”
Xie Changli has always done things without leakage, and he is an old man of the Sheng family, Shen Yu is very relieved of him.
