Chapter 368: Not worthy of Zhou Xiaoxiao
Speaking of this matter, Zhang Shangqi was stunned at first, he didn't expect Xiao Man to know about this matter, he couldn't help asking, after learning that Xiao Man knew from Xiao Man, he first lowered his head, and when he looked up at Xiao Man again, his whole face was dark, and before he could speak, he sighed first, full of helplessness, "Don't mention it, my old face, it's all lost in Ouyang's house!" β
and Zhang Shangqi have known each other for a long time, but Xiaoman has never seen him show such a look, she is concerned: "What's wrong?" β
Xu didn't treat Xiaoman as an outsider, and Mrs. Zhang and Xiaoman had a good relationship, so Zhang Shangqi roughly said about the Ouyang family.
The gist of it is that Zhang Shangqi wanted to take this opportunity to introduce Zhou Xiaoxiao to the son of the Ouyang family, that is, Ouyang You, but Zhou Xiaoxiao not only made Ouyang Gongzi ugly on the spot, but also cooperated with Mrs. Zhou to sarcastically mock Ouyang Gongzi's appearance, which made everyone present very embarrassed.
It stands to reason that Zhou Xiaoxiao has always been gentle and should not have done such a thing, but at that time, I didn't know what was going on, as soon as she sat down, before the meal was served, Zhou Xiaoxiao suddenly began to speak coldly, with thorns in every sentence.
Mrs. Zhou didn't persuade her, but instead named Ouyang You for his vulgar appearance and unworthy of her daughter.
The mother and daughter made such a fuss, not only did the Ouyang family get sulky, but even Zhang Shangqi and Mrs. Zhang were so angry that they could only take the mother and daughter of the Zhou family back to the house in a hurry, thinking that they would go to the Ouyang Mansion in two days to make amends.
After listening to Master Zhang's story, Xiao Man almost dropped his jaw in shock, "This... Is this true? She... How can Miss Zhou ......"
Not to mention that Zhou Xiaoxiao is a rich daughter, even if she is just the daughter of an ordinary family, she shouldn't do this! Sarcastically mocking each other in front of others, and also humiliating each other's looks with their own mothers, this is too much.
"The county lord smiled, I have no choice, I don't know how to make amends to the Ouyang family!" Zhang Shangqi was full of regret, "I knew that I might as well not go to this banquet, otherwise I wouldn't be so embarrassed and ashamed!" β
For so many years, Mrs. Zhang has not been able to get pregnant, so Zhang Shangqi has always regarded the children of his colleagues as his own, not to mention, he and the Ouyang family have known each other for many years, and they are officials in the court, and Ouyang You has grown up with him.
I thought it would be a good thing, but I didn't want it to end like this......
Looking at Zhang Shangqi's bitter face, as well as the look full of regret, Xiao Man had to accept that Zhou Xiaoxiao was actually such a person, thinking of what Master Zhang just said, if anything happened to Xiao Man, I am afraid she would have to find a crack to get into on the spot.
However, the matter has happened, and now there is no remedy, Xiao Man has no choice but to persuade: "Lord Zhang, don't worry, this is Miss Zhou's, presumably Lord Ouyang will not blame you." β
"Thank you Lord for your comfort." Zhang Shangqi sighed, got up, and said: "If the county lord has nothing else to do, the old minister will go back to the house first, as for the abandoned martial arts arena, the old minister will enter the palace as soon as possible to return to the king." β
"I'm sorry to trouble Mr. Zhang."
After speaking, Xiaoman found someone to send Zhang Shangqi out of the house, and she subconsciously looked sideways at Jade, the other party seemed to be still immersed in the story told by Master Zhang, and still had an indignant face, as if she wanted to rush to Zhang's mansion now and beat Zhou Xiaoxiao.
Seeing this, Xiao Man coughed lightly and reached out to pat Jade's shoulder.
The other party came back to his senses instantly, first stunned for a moment, and then instantly raised a smug smile, stretched out his hand and shook it twice, "Madam, do you believe what I said now?" I've always been very accurate in seeing people, and I have long known that this week's girl is not a thing! β
"You just said she wasn't simple, but you didn't say she wasn't a thing." Xiao Man held back a smile and deliberately pretended to be serious.
"It's not simple, it's not a thing!" Jade snorted and said indignantly: "Even if that Ouyang Gongzi is not good-looking, she can't say it to her face!" And with her mother, it's so disrespectful! β
Seeing that this jade was excited again, Xiao Man hurriedly got up and pressed the other party's shoulder, "Okay, okay, this time you won, according to what I said before, your expenses this month are all wrapped up in me." β
Hearing this, Jade Deng, who was still indignant, changed his face and said with a smile: "Thank you, madam!" β
"Come with me to my room and get you the money."
"Thank you, ma'am! Madame is the best. β
Compared with the relaxed and happy atmosphere in the county lord's mansion, Zhang's mansion was too depressed, especially when Zhang Shangqi returned to the mansion, the depressed atmosphere in Zhang's mansion reached its peak.
Zhang's house, flower hall.
Mrs. Zhang sat upright with an expressionless face, but judging from the handkerchief she was holding tightly and her shoulders trembling slightly, Mrs. Zhang seemed to be extremely angry at this time.
Mrs. Zhou and Zhou Xiaoxiao sat on the left side, the two of them lowered their heads slightly, occasionally secretly raising their eyes to observe the movements around them, but no one dared to make a sound.
As for Lord Zhang, who had just come back, he was sitting in a place in the far corner, always with a gloomy face, staring directly at Mrs. Zhou and Zhou Xiaoxiao without shying away from it, his eyes were full of anger.
The room was terriblely quiet, there was not a single maid waiting, and the doors and windows were tightly closed, impermeable, and there was not even sunlight.
In such a quiet, gloomy, and depressing atmosphere, Mrs. Zhang was the first to speak: "Ming Jingshuang, do you think you do this?" When you were pointing at Ouyang Gongzi at the dinner table, did you ever think about what your brother-in-law and I should do in the future? β
Ming Jingshuang is Mrs. Zhou's name, Mrs. Zhang's name is Ming Jingxue, since she was a child, Mrs. Zhang rarely calls Mrs. Zhou's name, unless she is very angry, just like today.
"Sister, I was so angry, I didn't expectββ"
"You're so angry, huh!" Mrs. Zhang unceremoniously interrupted the other party, and then sneered, "Ming Jingshuang, I clearly remember that you humiliated Ouyang Gongzi for a quarter of an hour, right?" Haven't you been able to shake off your anger for so long? β
At that time, at the dinner table of Ouyang's family, only Mrs. Zhou stood alone, pointing at Ouyang Gongzi with a chopstick, and kept saying wild words. Of course, Mrs. Zhang wanted to hold her sister at that time, but the Ouyang family did not agree, so she could only give up and watch her sister mess around.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Zhang was so angry that her chest hurt and her ears were buzzing, as if she would faint at any time.
Looking at her sister's angry appearance, Mrs. Zhou pursed her mouth, lowered her head and stopped talking.
I don't know how long it has passed, Mrs. Zhang finally took a breath, she raised her head, and continued to ask: "Xiaoxiao, I always thought you were a knowledgeable, gentle and generous girl, but I didn't know until today that I was wrong, you are even more excessive than your mother, you are an out-and-out shrew!" β
In the end, Mrs. Zhang was obviously excited, she got up, pointed to Zhou Xiaoxiao's nose, and shouted: "Don't think that we can't hear your sarcastic words about Ouyang Gongzi, and don't think that everyone in the world is a fool!" Don't even think how good you are, don't think everyone likes you! β
Mrs. Zhang's fingers trembled, her chest rose and fell violently, her voice trembled, her voice became higher and higher, and finally it almost became a roar.
Of course, such an accusation is obviously unacceptable to Zhou Xiaoxiao, even after she has already made a fuss in Ouyang's house, she has become more and more fearless, in the face of Mrs. Zhang's accusation, she just pursed her lips and snorted lightly: "Auntie, what do you mean by this, Xiaoxiao doesn't understand." β
"Zhou Xiaoxiao, you... What kind of attitude do you have! Mrs. Zhang was stunned and almost fell directly to the hall.
Seeing this, Lord Zhang hurriedly rushed over, grabbed his wife, and persuaded: "It's not worth it, it's not worth it for a junior like her, don't be angry, be careful of your body." β
This was a casual word of comfort, but it became Zhou Xiaoxiao's weapon to ridicule the other party, she sneered, and then stepped forward, "Finally admit it, aunt, you finally admit it!" β
Mrs. Zhang and Zhang Shangqi looked confused, not understanding what each other meant.
"What else are you pretending?" Zhou Xiaoxiao sneered, the corners of her mouth were full of sneering smiles, "You didn't treat me and my mother as a family at all, and you didn't want to help me find a husband at all, my mother and I entrusted the happiness of the second half of my life to you, but you didn't take it seriously at all!" β
"Why didn't I take your happiness seriously?" Mrs. Zhang opened his eyes and walked straight to Zhou Xiaoxiao, gasping for breath, and calculating to the other party little by little: "Do you know how tired I am these days in order to find you a good family?" Ask aroundβ"
Before she finished speaking, Zhou Xiaoxiao interrupted impatiently, "You keep saying that you want to help me find a good family, but in the end?" What are you looking for? Do you want me to spend the rest of my life with a pig's head?! β
She was full of expectations before entering Ouyang's house, and even full of joy after seeing the door of Ouyang's house, but in the end? All this joy and expectation were shattered the moment he saw Ouyang You.
Fat, ugly, greasy, and with that little squinting eye, Zhou Xiaoxiao didn't want to put up with it at all, if it wasn't for the joy of seeing the Ouyang family, she couldn't wait to turn around and leave on the spot!
"Ouyang Gongzi is a little fatter, but that is also within the normal range, besides, where is he ugly?" Mrs. Zhang didn't understand anything, she frowned tightly and asked, "Zhou Xiaoxiao, even if Ouyang Gongzi is not what you expect in your heart, you can't say something like that!" β
At that time, Ouyang You's parents were also there, and there were a room full of people, Zhou Xiaoxiao said words such as pig's head and fat man without scruples, even if she didn't point out her name, but the disgusting eyes already said everything.
