After the whole family was swept away, I lay down flat

Chapter 518 Bad idea

Although her waist was still very tired, Mrs. Zhou couldn't just sit back and ignore what happened before, so she had to get up and order the girl to change her clothes.

She sent Zhou Yijun back to the mourning hall: "Good boy, go back and watch quickly. If there is too much noise in the study and the guests who come to express condolences hear it, you can find an excuse to stop it and don't let anyone see it. What a joke."

Zhou Yijun couldn't help but wrinkled her face. How can one deal with such a thing? She came to the main courtyard for help because she couldn't do it.

Now only Zhou Shicheng was left guarding the mourning hall. He turned a blind eye to any movement in the study and had no intention of intervening. However, Zhou Jinpu's wife, Mrs. Chen, had already hurried to the study to help her husband. If she goes back at this time, she will have to deal with the female guests who come to inquire alone. Just thinking about it made her scalp numb.

Haitang pulled her aside and whispered: "What are you afraid of? At worst, tell the truth. Most of the people here today are either outsiders, relatives and friends of your family, or old men of your family. Just reveal a few things about what Zhou Jinpu did So what if his wife can't stop you? The second master will probably turn a blind eye. Now it's obvious that your grandfather has given up on Zhou Jinpu, so that others can know. It is natural for him to lose the right to inherit. When your father comes back in the future, some people who don't know the inside story will gossip that your father is fighting with his eldest brother. You can help your father create a momentum in advance to avoid future troubles. Well."

Zhou Yijun's eyes lit up and she whispered: "I'm afraid someone will think that I have bad intentions and deliberately ruin my uncle's reputation..."

Haitang pouted: "The stupid things he has done are real and everyone knows it. If he is allowed to inherit the three-bedroom family business, who will obey him?! Besides, you are still young now. If you don't take advantage of your innocence and ignorance when you are young, To be honest, when you are married next year, you will really be suspected of having bad intentions!"

They are now at the right age, and their words will no longer be simply regarded as ignorant children, but no one will think that they are very scheming now. Even if he said something wrong, it was just because he was young and ignorant. It was because of this that Haitang dared to interrupt during Mrs. Ma's trial. Zhou Yijun is a few months younger than her, and she has always been a well-behaved and obedient person. Her intelligence is not obvious, and even if she has some little tricks, the adults won't blame her.

Zhou Yijun made up her mind, nodded to Haitang, then turned and left.

Mrs. Zhou Ma changed her clothes and came out, helping the girl to the study. Ma hesitated for a moment, feeling that he shouldn't go watch the scandal at his relatives' house. Now there is a dispute between Zhou Shigong and Zhou Jinpu and his son. Unlike Mrs. Ma, who is the adopted daughter of the Ma family, she can get involved.

Haitang put her arm on her grandmother's arm and said, "Grandma, let's go and take a look. Grandpa and brother are still in the study. I don't know if there was a conflict with Zhou Jinpu."

This gave Ma a good reason. She straightened her back immediately: "That's right, let's go quickly. I don't know if your brother has protected me. Is he being bullied by Zhou Jinpu?"

This would be to underestimate Grandpa Hai Xiya. After all, he came back from the border town, and his wife could pick up a hatchet to kill the enemy. How could he bully the weak scholar Zhou Jinpu?

Ma family and Haitang family hurriedly followed Zhou Ma family to the study room. Before they reached the place, they heard Zhou Jinpu yelling like he was in a state of collapse: "Why is this happening?! You obviously didn't say that! That's what you said!" Knowing this, I shouldn't have listened to your bad idea in the first place!" This was accompanied by his wife Chen's pleading: "Sir, stop talking, please calm down... don't scold the child..." However, Zhou Jinpu became even more angry. : "Shut up! This is all your fault! How do you teach your children?!"

Zhou Ma turned around and looked at his sister Ma with an inexplicable expression. Both of them felt confused.

Haitang had a vague guess.

They had already arrived outside the study. The door of the study was open and there was a commotion in the room. The old military advisor was so angry that his face turned black. He and Lao Zhangtou stood in the corner with a straight face and said nothing. However, Hai Xiya had already taken his grandson Hai Jiao to the yard and was now standing by the wall. Haitang quickly pulled her grandmother closer. Mr. Zhou Ma stood at the door at a loss, smiling awkwardly at the relatives and friends who were watching, whispering some casual remarks in an attempt to smooth things over.

In fact, the relatives, friends and former members of the crowd who were watching came earlier, listened more thoroughly than Zhou Ma, and had already figured out what was going on. They saw Mr. Zhou rushing in with a yellow face and a haggard look on her face. They also knew that she was in trouble, so they all smiled in a friendly manner and then dispersed. It's just that after they return home, how they will discuss what they saw and heard in the third room of the Zhou family today is beyond Zhou Ma's control. She could only stand outside the study and worry, and did not dare to go in to persuade him. Given her bad relationship with her stepson Zhou Jinpu, her coming forward would only add fuel to the fire and make the situation even more uncontrollable. In the study, Zhou Shigong finally got angry. He angrily scolded Zhou Jinpu many times, and ordered his eldest son to go back to the east courtyard for confinement and not allow him to observe mourning in the mourning hall again.

Zhou Jinpu sneered: "Do you think I'm rare?! It makes me sick to think about being a filial piety to that vicious woman who has harmed the whole family. If you hadn't forced me, I wouldn't have come!"

He threw up his sleeves and walked away. Chen hurriedly followed, but was disgusted and insulted by him along the way.

When Zhou Jinpu left, he didn't even glance at Zhou Ma from the corner of his eyes. However, Zhou Ma was used to his rudeness and breathed a sigh of relief.

She went into the room to comfort her husband: "Master, don't be angry. Jin Puna's temper comes and goes quickly. Go back and wait for him to calm down and realize that he was wrong. Then you can teach him well..."

Zhou Shigong waved his hands, not wanting to discuss the issue of his eldest son with his wife, and just stared at the corner of the room.

Zhou Ma followed his line of sight and found Zhou Jinpu's son Zhou Lianghou standing there. She couldn't help but wonder why he was here. But then she thought about it and realized that it was this son that Zhou Jinpu was scolding just now.

According to Zhou Jinpu, it was Zhou Lianghou who gave him the "bad idea" before? Does the "bad idea" refer to the idea of ​​luring Mrs. Ma to climb over the wall and break her leg, or the idea of ​​letting Mrs. Chen give Mrs. Ma a chronic poison as an excuse to apologize?

No matter what kind of "bad idea" it is, the person who came up with it is insidious enough. Such a person is actually a half-grown child? That would be even more shocking.

This week Liangzhong is only the age of Zhou Yijun and Haitang. He has always been polite and well-behaved, and looks like a good child. At most, he was taught some bad etiquette by his parents, and he was often rude in front of his step-grandmother Zhou Ma. That’s all. Who would have thought that he could have such an insidious character?
Zhou Ma looked at Zhou Lianghou, then looked back at her husband Zhou Shigong, and then looked at the old military advisor and Lao Zhangtou standing in the other corner. Seeing that no one was speaking, she was scared and silently stepped aside.

After all, Zhou Lianghou was still a child and could not withstand the pressure caused by his grandfather's gaze. He slowly knelt down, lowered his head and said, "My father was clamoring to divorce his wife, but my grandfather sent a letter saying that if my mother was really divorced, she would no longer be the daughter of the Chen family, and she would not be allowed to enter the Chen family. The grandson could not just watch his mother being driven to a dead end, so he had to try his best to please his father and beg him not to be angry with his mother again..."

Zhou Shigong said coldly: "The way you please your father is to ask your mother to help him poison the old lady?!"

Zhou Lianghou lowered his head lower: "The poison has been with father for some time, and it will not kill people...Father is very happy..."

Zhou Shigong closed his eyes and didn't want to listen anymore.

No one knew how disappointed he was. I thought that this direct grandson was still worthy of development, but I didn't expect... Could it be that their third wife really had no heirs? !
