Xiao Tao doesn't want to hurt anyone, she just wants to keep her little secret, think carefully, and find a way out in the Zhu family to live a stable life. It's a pity that the heavens don't fulfill people's wishes, and people don't look for people for everything.

If you don't want to be bullied, you have to resist, and let those who bully her know that those superficial obedience does not mean that it is the same in her bones. She was able to crawl out of the pile of dead people and live to this day, so that she was not despised and bullied.

"Lie, lie." The cuckoo knelt on the ground, and kept repeating these two words in his mouth, a dozen times.

Zhu Jinlun looked at her coldly, and had his own thoughts in his heart.

Cuckoo has been by his side for many years, and although she is not his first woman, she can be regarded as a cronie. However, it has been less than two months since Xiao Tao came to Zhu's house. It stands to reason that he should have believed more in Cuckoo. But the opposite is true.

It will take a long time to study how sincere Xiao Tao is to him, but for now, at least he can't see any scheming in Xiao Tao. Therefore, in his eyes, compared with the simple peach like a white paper, the cuckoo's body has too much variegated color, and it is turbid.

They are similar in age and have the same identity, but they give people a completely different feeling.

The Zhu family is like a big dye vat, everyone will choose their own color. Maybe in a few years, Xiao Tao will also be different, and maybe, she will also become a second cuckoo, but now she has not changed......

Xiao Tao seemed to notice Zhu Jinlun's gaze on her, and glanced back at him with tears in her eyes. Although she pretended to be calm, she was still a little flustered in her heart.

She thought she had done the right thing, and God knows what the cuckoo had done with that dish. She couldn't bear it anymore, and at that moment, the humiliation that had been accumulating for a long time aroused her anger and made things uncontrollable.

She didn't regret what she did, but she didn't know if Xia Jiu would be on her side, her courage was too small and too timid, it was really unpredictable. Moreover, she was indeed at home at the time, and she saw it very clearly, and if she told the truth, she would be miserable.

Soon, someone found Xia Jiu, who was very frightened, and brought her to Zhu Jinlun.

Xia Jiu trembled and knelt down, hanging his head low, his heart beating like a drum.

In fact, she had followed all the way just now, but when she came to the door, she suddenly stopped her steps.

Because it happened so quickly, she was only shocked and didn't think deeply for a while, but now she thought about it carefully one by one, and suddenly realized that she had fallen into a huge trouble......

She is a bystander, and if the second young master asks questions, she will be the first to be questioned. However, the truth is there, but the words cannot be said casually.

Although the cuckoo girl is powerful, the little peach girl is also terrifying...... She suddenly hesitated a little, what should she say, what should she do, and which side should she choose......

At this time, Zhu Jinlun's eyes were firmly fixed on Xia Jiu's body, and he asked, "Tell me, what happened just now?" ”

His words made the hearts of everyone present tighten.

Du Juan couldn't help but interject: "Xia Jiu, you have to tell the truth. ”

Xiao Tao's eyes sank, and then he also whispered: "Xia Jiu, don't be afraid. With the second young master here, no one dares to bully you, you can tell me, who injured me? ”

After hearing this, the cuckoo snorted coldly, and said in his heart: It's really ridiculous, it's all here, what are you pretending about.

Xia Jiu's heart trembled, and he didn't know what to say at all. After hesitating, she suddenly remembered the strange things that Little Peach had said to her when she was combing her hair earlier. "Actually, you and I are no different, we are both the same identity, and we are both subordinates. It's just that I have one more thing than you, that's why you're here to serve me. ”

At that time, she just shook her head and didn't dare to reply, so she listened to the little peach girl continue: "One thing I have more than you is the favor of the second young master." Because of the second young master, I can sit here and be served by you. ”

“…… Yes, the girl is more blessed than the slave, and the second young master feels the most sorry for you, the girl......"

She just replied lightly at that time, but before she could think about it, the little peach girl suddenly turned her head to look at her and asked, "Since you know that the second young master likes me, why should you be afraid of that cuckoo?" Why have you never been afraid of me? ”

"Uh...... What's wrong with the girl? It's so decent, why do you ask this...... The slave will give you another grate, right? ”

She originally wanted to pass the topic, but Xiao Tao asked very seriously: "What am I asking you?" Why aren't you afraid of me? ”

"Slave maid...... Because girl, you are a good person. ”

She subconsciously replied, but the little peach girl laughed for a while, but her laughter was very cold: "Hehe, good person, how do you know that I am a good person?" There have never been any good people in this world, and I am not ......."

Their conversation, just talking about this, was interrupted by the sudden arrival of the cuckoo, and then such a shocking scene happened, which caught people off guard.

Xia Jiu thought uneasily, if she told the truth, and the second young master didn't believe it, or didn't care, would the little peach girl take revenge on herself? She even dared to touch her own face, and she would definitely be even more ruthless to others...... Perhaps, I shouldn't tell the truth...... Perhaps, the little peach girl is really more terrible than the cuckoo......

Zhu Jinlun saw that she was reluctant to speak, and was about to urge, but she bit her lip and muttered, "Yes...... It's Sister Cuckoo, it's she who hurt the little peach girl. ”

As soon as her words fell, it was like a stone falling on the surface of a lake, splashing a huge splash of water.

The cuckoo almost rushed straight towards Xia Jiu, raised his hand and slapped her hard, and asked, "You say it again?" Are you blind or confused? ”

Xiao Tao was beside her, and she was shocked to hear it, but fortunately, Xia Jiu was smarter than she imagined......

Just when the cuckoo was still immersed in anger, a communication outside the door made her calm down immediately.

"The second lady has arrived."

Zhu Fu stood by the door, so he was the first to react, facing the direction of the visitor, kneeling on the ground and saluting: "The slave greets Madame, Madame is auspicious." ”

Chai Shi held the maid's hand with one hand, and gently protected the bulging lower abdomen with the other, his pace was slow and his expression was calm.

When Zhu Jinlun saw his mother coming, his face changed slightly, and he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "Why is my mother here?" After speaking, his eyes swept over Zhu Fu's body, as if he was dissatisfied.

He confessed early in the morning, don't make a noise, don't be alarmed, but someone still talked a lot.

Chai Shi looked at his son, stretched out his hand, gently put his arm and said, "I heard that I have seen blood, why don't I come to see how it can be done?" Which one is hurting? ”

Seeing that the second lady had arrived in time, Du Juan was surprised and happy in his heart, and the tears of grievance fell, and he knelt on the ground and choked up: "Madam, you are finally here, do you want to be the master of the slave?" ”

When Xiao Tao saw that the Chai family was coming, she sighed in her heart, she didn't expect that Madame would come so quickly. So, without thinking too much, I had to roll over and get out of bed.

Zhu Jinlun personally helped her mother to sit down, she was pregnant, so she naturally couldn't stand, and she came all the way.

Although his eyes were all on his mother's body, when he noticed that Xiao Tao ignored the injuries on his body and got out of bed, he still reminded him: "Be careful of the wounds." ”

Chai raised his eyebrows slightly, glanced at his son, but did not speak.

Just now, Chai Shi was actually ready to sleep. However, she suddenly felt a little hungry, so she told the maid Qiuyan to go to the kitchen to get some supper. Who knows, at this moment, someone outside came in and replied, saying that something happened in Zhu Jinlun's house.

Although, it is just some contradictions among the people, but it is bloody. Chai Shi was very unhappy when he heard it, and before the person who reported the news finished speaking, he guessed that it was related to the cuckoo and Xiao Tao. Because by Zhu Jinlun's side, there are now people who are brave and capable of making trouble, she thinks, there are only two of them. Back then, the cuckoo went out from her side, and the reason why Chai took a fancy to her was because she was young, neat, and a little beautiful, and the most important thing was that she obeyed her words.

At this time, Xiao Tao and Du Juan will both kneel on the ground, one silently weeping, and the other choked up, but Chai Shi turned a blind eye, picked up the teacup casually, and took a sip of tea. Although her eyes did not look at them, she kept an eye on everyone's every move.

Relying on the relationship between himself and the second lady's master and servant, Du Juan eagerly crawled to her and cried bitterly: "Madam, the slave and maid did not hurt anyone, everything was deliberately framed by Xiao Tao, she deliberately dug a pit for the slave and maid to jump in, so that the second young master hated the slave and maid." ”

Chai Shi frowned a little impatiently, gently stroked his abdomen, glanced at the cuckoo and said: "There is something to say, there is a mistake to admit the mistake, don't cry and cry, it seems that something big has happened, how unlucky." ”

When the cuckoo heard this, he immediately didn't dare to cry, but only whimpered quietly.

Chai didn't ask what happened, but said, "Little Peach, come here, let me see your face." ”

Xiao Tao stepped forward in response, looked at Chai with teary eyes, and said in a thick nasal voice: "The slave maid greets the second lady." ”

Seeing that she looked extremely aggrieved, Chai Shi rolled his eyes, then fell on her cheek, directly raised her chin, and then tore off the medicine cloth on her face, and looked at it again and again.

Xiao Tao's shoulders trembled, although she tried her best to hide her uneasiness, but in front of Chai's family, she still felt that she had no bottom in her heart. Fang Cai's scene, she just had an idea, if it weren't for the cuckoo's aggressiveness, maybe she wouldn't have made this decision.

Chai's eyes were sharp, staring at Xiao Tao's face for a few seconds, and suddenly there was a plan in her heart, she slowly withdrew her hand, and said lightly: "I thought something was wrong?" It's just a little bit of skin, and it's not in the way. ”

She said so lightly that Xiao Tao's heart sank, but Du Juan had a bottom in her heart, thinking about it, the second lady would be so calm, she must have a good idea and was ready to protect herself.

Chai Shi saw that Zhu Jinlun was still standing beside him, so he pointed to the position next to him and said, "It is common for maids to be noisy occasionally. There's no need for such a big battle, you sit down first. ”

Zhu Jinlun groaned slightly, thinking that since his mother came, he had to listen to her first. After all, Cuckoo is also half of her person.

He then sat down as well, and said in a deep voice, "I'm worried about you, mother." It's all sons who discipline their subordinates strictly. ”

Chai Shi stroked his lower abdomen very gently, and smiled lightly: "The subordinates are not sensible, what does it have to do with you." After all, you haven't gotten married yet, and you don't have a good helper around you who can take charge of things. Speaking of which, the housekeeping and housekeeping in the yard, these messy things, should be handled by women, how can a big man be handy? Men do big things. However, you don't have to bother, as soon as the new daughter-in-law enters the door and there is an upright hostess in the house, she will watch for you, and no one will dare to mess around without knowing what is wrong. ”

Chai's words made Du Juan and Xiao Tao look different, but they were all cold.

On the surface, he was saying this to Zhu Jinlun, but in fact, every sentence and every word was deliberately said to the two of them.

Sure enough, Chai Shi followed the conversation, looked at Xiao Tao and Du Juan, and reproached: "It's a shame that you are all the right-hand men around the second young master, but none of you are sensible." In today's affairs, no matter who is right or wrong, both of you will be punished. ”

Zhu Jinlun said: "Mother, I'm afraid this is unfair." ”

"Son, a slap can't make a sound, so no matter who picks it first, it's two people's fault."

In fact, as soon as she entered the house, she already understood something. One was kneeling on the ground, the other was leaning on the bed, and he was injured, and he knew who was right and who was wrong.

However, the Chai family still wanted to favor the cuckoo. First, because she is "her own person", and secondly, because she had intentionally let the cuckoo beat Xiao Tao before, so that Xiao Tao can usually be honest.

Looking at it now, Cuckoo did listen to her, but the means were too stupid. I thought she was a clever person, but it seems that she is still clumsy and does not have enough brains. usually looks like a very smart person, but at this time, she dropped the chain, which made the Chai family disappointed her a lot.

When Du Juan listened to Chai's words, she was scared and aggrieved in her heart, and she couldn't figure out her thoughts.

The expression on Xiao Tao's face also changed slightly. It seems that Chai meant to be "selfless".

She didn't expect that Du Juan dared to act so presumptuously, mostly because of the second lady Chai. In other words, everything that Cuckoo did to her was already the acquiescence of the Chai family.

Chai Shi suddenly sighed lightly, followed, looked coldly at the cuckoo kneeling in front of him, and then stretched out a finger, pointed directly at her door, and scolded: "You, you, you are really embarrassing to me." ”

When the cuckoo heard this, he was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and complained again and again.

Zhu Jinlun was already very dissatisfied with her, and he would listen to her begging for mercy one by one, and he only felt very harsh when he heard it.

"Since I know this, how about I make the decision?" Chai said lightly to Zhu Jinlun.

She knew that no matter how annoyed Zhu Jinlun was, she would not give her face.

Zhu Jinlun also understood, nodded slightly, and said: "The affairs of the inner house should be the mother's decision, and the son has no reason to open up and participate." However, they are all people around their son, and the son just wants to say a fair word, and today's affairs are all done by Du Juan maliciously, and they have nothing to do with Xiao Tao. ”

In his opinion, today's events are all the fault of the cuckoo. If, according to his will, it must be dealt with according to the family law.

However, just listening to the meaning of his mother's words, it seems that he intends to turn a big thing into a small thing. Therefore, he has to take a stand first.

"Cuckoo, this kid is really angry, but she has been serving you for so many years, and she has always done her best. There is no merit, there is hard work. Chai's eyes were meaningful, he glanced at Zhu Jinlun with a smile, and said lightly: "Today's matter, I think she is also unintentional, and she was blinded by lard for a while." Think about it, if she really had a hurtful heart, then Xiao Tao's face would have been unable to save it for a long time. Pushing and shoving, there are also momentary misses. ”

Zhu Jinlun objected: "Mother, you don't know anything. Just now, thanks to his son's timely arrival, otherwise, the consequences may be more serious. ”

The most poisonous woman's heart, he can't allow such a vicious woman to be around him.

Chai shook his head and said: "No, the cuckoo has served by my side in the past, and I know best what kind of child she is." She was definitely confused for a while, so forgive her for the time being. ”

To be honest, she doesn't care who is right and who is wrong, she just ends this little trouble as soon as possible, and then goes back to make up for sleep and recuperation.

When Zhu Jinlun heard this, he stopped talking a little, his mother said everything to this point, if he persisted, it would not be good.

"Since the mother said so, the son has nothing to say, but this matter can't be settled like this, and the punishment must still be punished."

He knew that the Chai family wanted the cuckoo to stay by his side, so he would protect her like this.

Listening to these words, the cuckoo bit her lip hard, and her face could not hide her grief and indignation, and tears rolled silently in her eyes.

The second lady meant to make her admit her mistake. However, she obviously didn't do it, and she obviously didn't ......

Xiao Tao also paid attention to Chai's every word, and saw that she was so partial to the cuckoo, on the surface she was kneeling without moving, but she was strongly uneasy in her heart.

Today's events turned out to be different from what she expected.

Chai's came too timely, so she couldn't continue to act, and she couldn't continue to act. Right now, she has completely offended the cuckoo, with the cuckoo's personality, she will definitely not give up on this matter, and will definitely try her best to get back a city, and even worsen.

Chai Shi thought for a while, gently stroked his belly, looked at the two kneeling on the ground, and said, "I am pregnant now, and I don't want to worry about it, and I don't want to see people suffer. Therefore, this time, let's first punish the big commandment. Punish the cuckoo for a year's wages, and go to Mama Zhou early tomorrow morning to receive fifty rattans, take it as a warning, and do not commit it again in the future. ”
