Chapter Twenty-Eight: Going and Returning
"Coming back?"
Hearing that Mu Xiang reported that Mrs. Dongqu and Miss Dongqu had returned, Zhao was the first to be impatient and asked in surprise.
Old Mrs. Jiang glanced at the granddaughters who were deadlocked in the hall, and shouted in a deep voice: "Don't make any more trouble." ”
When she spoke, although her words were nothing, her momentum was really not comparable to Chen's, Jiang Zhi's picture book was still struggling, and at this moment, she settled down and walked to Jiang Zhilan and stood beside her.
Several ladies glanced at each other, all wondering what the Dongqu family came back for?
It is very likely that he was too embarrassed at the time and left in a hurry, but now that he looks back on it, he feels angry and wants to say something - in the end, the matter is still in the Jiang family, no matter what, the Dongqu family is reasonable.
"Go and invite them in." Zhao said to Mu Xiang with some schadenfreude.
Jiang Zhilan's face turned even paler when she heard this, her eyes drooped blankly, and she looked a little weaker than Jiang Zhiyao.
Strangely, when Grandmother asked them all to go to the inner room before, Mrs. Dongqu knew about it, if it was because Mrs. Dongqu and Miss Dongqu would know that they were picking up the screen and nervous—there was no need for this at all, because they also approved.
Jiang Zhilan would not be unable to see this matter clearly, and behaved so panicked.
But if she's afraid of something else······ She thought that Dongqu Huaixi was also waiting outside at this time······
Jiang Yu's heart moved, and she approached a little closer and told Jiang Zhilan softly: "It's okay, the people outside only saw my hand." ”
She deliberately accentuated the sound of the word "I".
Jiang Zhilan heard Jiang Yu's words coldly, glanced at her sideways, her lips moved, but she couldn't speak.
At this glance, Jiang Yu found that she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
Jiang Zhihui didn't hear Jiang Yu's words clearly, but hurried over to push her away, and said angrily and anxiously in a low voice: "My sister is like this, you still want to stimulate her?" You want to ······"
Although the Chen family went to help the old lady stand up, his mind was still on the eldest daughter who had been wronged, and his eyes kept paying attention to Jiang Zhilan's side, and when he saw Jiang Yu walking over, he couldn't help but feel anxious, and he didn't care about the old lady's presence, and said, "Sister Yu!" Why don't you get to your place? ”
Her location······ Isn't that the location of the last four rooms? She is the only one in the fourth room, where is she going to stand?
Jiang Yu glanced at Chen, her brows furrowed, and her face looked even more angry.
Although she knew that Chen's anger was due to a misunderstanding, Jiang Yu still didn't feel very comfortable, if Jian Jian's parents were still there, would Jiang Zhiyao, who was the concubine today, still dare to frame her?
In other words, it is also that she has been too restrained after being reborn, and she is cautious, which makes people think that she is easy to bully.
Zhao greeted Jiang Yu with a smile at this time: "Come, come here for the second aunt." ”
Jiang Yu lowered her head and walked over obediently.
Zhao glanced at Chen proudly, and felt very happy in his heart - usually this sister-in-law has always had a face, and she doesn't want to make a mistake in everything she does, if it weren't for this mess this time, she wouldn't have had a chance to see her sister-in-law so angry!
When Mu Xiang led Mrs. Dong Qu and Dong Qu Jie in, everyone was almost seated in turn.
After a brief salute, Mrs. Dong Qu took Dong Qujie to sit down.
Her face was very gray, as if someone had poured a big bag of incense ash on her head, and the one who was comparable to her here was probably Chen.
Maybe everyone has experienced the same unpleasant thing together, and this time, Mrs. Dongqu's eyes looked at Chen's eyes, and there was some sympathy for the same disease.
The old lady is the most human spirit, and one of the rosaries has just been slapped on the table by her in anger, revealing a slightly shallow wood inside, and there is still some powder left on the table, and a discerning person can almost guess what is going on, not to mention Mrs. Dongqu.
But she still plucked the rosary carefully, and asked Mrs. Dongqu with a smile why she had come back. "But do you think Jiang Fu can still be as eye-catching as you are, and are you willing to stay and play?"
Mrs. Dong Qu smiled reluctantly, looked at Dong Qu Jie who was blushing to her neck next to her, sighed, and said, "I did a foolish thing today, and I hope that the old lady and the ladies Haihan." ”
Chen's heart tightened, this is to give them a step down, and then ask in turn? In the first few years when she had only passed the door, the Zhao family always dealt with her like this, always suppressing first and then raising it every time, saying that it was her own fault, but it made it difficult for others to ride the tiger in the end.
Old Madam Jiang was still smiling, "Why do you say that?" But Jie'er dropped something, could it be that the little girl found the wrong one? ”
Mrs. Dongqu shook her head, "Actually, Jie'er didn't put down her handkerchief just now, but she just knew that the Jiang family was the most well-behaved family, and she was worried that a few girls would be trained, so she called a maid to come back and see." ”
Seeing that she came back and said this thing, Chen couldn't help but feel a little irritable in his heart, but he faintly felt that things were not as simple as before.
Is it time to be held accountable? Relatives with the Dongqu family······
The old lady didn't speak, but just picked up a cup of tea, scratched the tea foam as if she hadn't heard anything, and took a sip.
Chen then spoke: "Speaking of which, today's matter, we still have to apologize to you and Jie'er." After all, it's our family," Chen paused, pressed down the words rolling in his throat again, and continued: "A few girls are ignorant, and they knocked down the screen when they were playing. ”
She was a little protective of Jiang Yu when she said this, and she didn't directly point out her - Zhilan gently pushed the hem of her clothes for some reason.
Chen also thought that if Mrs. Dongqu felt that she was too perfunctory, and really wanted to find out who the culprit was, she would push Jiang Yu out again, so that the old lady would have nothing to say, after all, she could be pampered by favoritism towards Jiang Yu at home, and there were outsiders there, how could she still be so indulgent?
Immediately afterwards, I heard Mrs. Dongqu say: "Several young ladies have actually taken the charge for Jie'er······" Her tone was quite emotional, and she was a little incredulous, and glanced at the young ladies of the Jiang family one by one.
Except for Jiang Yu, almost all the people present were stunned.
After Jiang Zhihui reacted to what she had heard, she blurted out: "This is impossible! Isn't the person who deliberately knocked down the screen Jiang Yu? As she spoke, she looked at Jiang Zhiyao, who knew that Jiang Zhiyao had already lowered her head, and her eyes were only looking at her knees.
Dong Qujie was also surprised - there was still someone who wanted to admit this kind of thing to her?
She thought about it seriously for a while, and then said, "It's not Miss Jiang, it's me who leaned on the screen at the beginning." She looked at Mrs. Jiang, the ladies of the Jiang family, and the other ladies of the Jiang family who were still in a trance, and nodded firmly, raising her delicate eyebrows, but looking sassy.
Jiang Yu looked at her appreciatively, such a daring style would never be had by a person like Jiang Zhiyao.
Jiang Zhihui opened her mouth blankly, looked at Jiang Yu, and said, "But the second sister-"
As soon as she finished saying three words, Jiang Zhiyao hurriedly raised her head to interrupt her, and said, "Fourth sister, I was frightened at the time, did I say anything wrong?" I don't get scared, I shake my head and ······look around when I'm scared."
Jiang Zhihua seemed to be slapped hard in the air, her little face immediately turned red, and she stared at Jiang Zhiyao, and she was so angry that she couldn't say what she wanted to say.
Of course she didn't say anything, but the way she looked, she kept looking at Jiang Yu, she kept making a scared and unconsciously glance at Jiang Yu, didn't that deliberately imply that she saw Jiang Yu pushing the screen at that time? !
Could it all be that she made it all up herself?
Jiang Zhihui was ashamed, angry and annoyed, and covered the veil and cried.
