Zhu Men Ji Shi

Chapter 256 The Zhu Family Are All Snobs

Li Shi didn't want to persuade her earnestly, but just wanted to mention her. Her resentment was too deep, almost bottomless.

Tong Chuchu finally laughed out loud, with an indescribable coquettishness in her eyes, a meekness and humility without talent, her laughter was crisp and clear, and there was a touch of presumptuousness in it.

Li Shi's voice was lukewarm, "What are you laughing at?"

Tong Chuchu said quietly: "I just feel very lucky to have such a kind and loving elder like my aunt, who not only considers me in every way, but also comforts me intimately."

The sarcasm in her words was obvious, Li Shi didn't expect her to be like this, she cleared her throat unconsciously, trying to cover up her guilty conscience.

Li Shi didn't like her current attitude very much, so she said coldly: "If you really appreciate me, you should act cautiously and pay attention to your own words and deeds, instead of secretly flirting with outsiders, which is inappropriate."

She deliberately made the words ugly, but Tong Chuchu was unmoved, and only said: "I have always followed my aunt's wishes. I will do whatever you ask me to do? I have never disobeyed, have I?"

Li Shi's affectation made her feel a little annoyed.

Seeing that she still dared to talk back to him, Li Shi immediately said in a deep voice: "Then what about the Jia family's marriage? Are you ready to listen to me?"

Tong Chuchu said: "Marriage matters are not something I can decide on my own. I still have to listen to my parents' wishes after all."

No matter what Li Shi said, she was just her aunt, and if she wanted to decide the marriage, she had to ask her mother to nod her consent.

Tong Chuchu had written a letter to her mother before, telling her everything she encountered in the Zhu family in detail, and told her not to have any extravagant expectations for the Zhu family. People here are all snobbish Ghost, only cares about immediate interests, only cares about her own people... Tong Chuchu is very clear about her mother's character. If she knows these things, she will never trust Li Shi again, and she will not object to the Jia family's affairs, because she Love money and power, although Jia's family is not as big as Zhu's family, it can still be regarded as a wealthy family, and it is also a piece of fat... Although this piece of fat is not good-looking, it is not easy to eat, but right now, it is the most Good choice.

Tong Chuchu knew very well how she could get into the eyes of Jia's family with her small background and mediocre background from a small place.

However, with her face, coupled with the muddled infatuation of the second young master of the Jia family, then everything is possible.

If the second youngest of the Jia family is neither stupid nor stupid, intact, and as proud and lofty as Zhu Jintang, then she can only be a concubine at best.

She is just a concubine, with no identity or status. Even if she has a son in the future, she still has to call someone else her mother. After that, she will spend her life depending on people's faces and relying on others.

During the time she lived in Zhu's house, she had seen enough of other people's faces and heard enough of their gossip... So, in the days to come, she didn't want to live like this anymore.

Seeing that she didn't like her, Li simply said: "Hi, if I can't discipline you, let your mother discipline you. I have sent a letter to her, let's see if she is How to decide."

Li Shi has great confidence in her sister's loyalty.Therefore, she decided that the Jia family's marriage would definitely not work out.

Still, she seemed too complacent in her thinking.

Two days later, the Jia family's matchmaker came to the door again, and this time the matchmaker was still the rouge Qian matchmaker. Her expression seemed a lot more excited than last time, her eyebrows were beaming, and her laughter was even more Presumptuous harsh, provoking displeasure.

Every time Li Shi sees her, she feels like a clingy bug, once it gets hot, it's hard to get rid of.

The arrival of Matchmaker Qian not only shocked Li Shi, but also disturbed the old lady.

It was the first time Matchmaker Qian had the opportunity to talk to Mrs. Zhu, and she couldn't help but became more excited: "Oh, my old lady, I didn't expect that I, a rough woman in the market, would have the opportunity to talk to a decent person like you Woolen cloth."

Mrs. Zhu glanced at her with a look of disgust, but she came here under the guise of Jia's family after all, so she had to be treated lightly.

The old lady Zhu was a little helpless, she just raised her head and glanced lightly at Li Shi, with a bit of displeasure on her face.

Seeing this, Mrs. Li had no choice but to speak first: "Matchmaker Qian, I think I made it very clear last time that we cannot agree to this marriage of the Jia family."

Matchmaker Qian was unmoved when she heard the words, but continued to smile and said, "Hey, don't refuse in a hurry, Mrs. Jia, I'm following Mrs. Jia's order to talk about the marriage sincerely, so you always have to Let me finish my speech first, don’t make it difficult for me to deal with business when I go back. You also know that it’s not easy for us vulgar people to work all day just to earn those hard-earned money.”

A person like Qian Matchmaker who hangs around the streets and alleys all day is the most eloquent.

Every time she opened her mouth, she couldn't stop, and she could not stop talking, and after each sentence, people didn't know which sentence was true and which sentence was false.A person who is a matchmaker must be able to speak, and he must also be able to make up lies, making ugly things beautiful, bad things good, and black things white.

Jia Xiandong, the second youngest of the Jia family, is obviously a fool who doesn't understand human affairs, but in the mouth of Qian Matchmaker, he has become a good husband and son-in-law who is not only rich in the world, but also has a pure personality. , born simple, is the most honest person in the world, and also the woman in the world, the man who should marry the most... It seems that as long as a girl from someone's family marries him, it must be because her ancestors have accumulated virtue and done a good job. For the good's sake.

Mrs. Zhu had never seen a person who could talk like her. Seeing her praise the second young master of the Jia family to shock the world, she couldn't help but sneered, and said in her heart: "Since he is such a good person, why bother to end up in this world?" These matchmakers only care about money, as long as they have money, everyone is good, even the fool who doesn't know the east, west, north and south has become a god and descended to earth."

Seeing the old lady's serious face, Mrs. Li immediately interrupted Qian Matchmaker, and said: "The Jia family and our Zhu family are old acquaintances. I know more about the Jia family than you, so you don't have to talk about it anymore." It’s a waste of time. I still say the same thing, we are not optimistic about this marriage, so we will not agree, please go back and tell Mrs. Jia, thank her for her kindness, but don’t mention this matter again.”

When Matchmaker Qian heard this, the smile on her face remained unchanged. She knew that the Zhu family was a tough nut to crack, especially the eldest lady Li Shi.

However, since she has taken this job, she will not give up easily, not to mention, the Jia family chose her on purpose, and promised that as long as she completes the job, they will give her a full 50 taels of silver as a matchmaker red envelope.

50 taels... This money is more than what she earns from walking around the streets for a whole year.With so much money in front of her eyes, if she didn't want it, wouldn't she be as stupid as the second young master of the Jia family, she would be so stupid.

Matchmaker Qian smiled obsequiously and said, "Madams, I gossip too much. However, as long as you read this gift list, you will know Mrs. Jia's sincerity." He took out a red note from his sleeve and handed it to Mrs. Zhu respectfully.

The old lady was too lazy to take a look, and turned her head slightly. Matchmaker Qian looked a little embarrassed, and hurriedly handed the post to Li Shi again.

Li Shi took it impatiently, glanced at it, and the look of surprise flashed across his eyes, then closed the post again, and gently placed it on the table, then tapped the corner of the table with his fingertips a few times, and said in a deep voice. Said: "The Jia family is so attentive, we are a little flattered, but after all, Chu Chu is not from our Zhu family. She has parents and both parents are still alive, so such a big marriage, we can't let us decide."

Li Shi was really a little frightened by the "generosity" of the Jia family. On the other hand, she was a little annoyed by the money matchmaker, and she just wanted to retreat and push the matter away.

Matchmaker Qian fell silent when she heard the words, she got up immediately, and bowed to the two of them again, "It seems that I'm afraid I have to go to Liuzhou personally for this marriage, I thought the two wives could make the decision, But I didn't expect that the madam can't make the decision. These days I'm bothering you, please don't blame the two ladies, I won't bother you any more today, so I'll leave now. "

When Mrs. Li said so much, Matchmaker Qian had nothing to say, so she could only go back home and discuss it with Mrs. Jia before watching.

It was the first time for Matchmaker Qian to deal with the Zhu family, but she was deeply impressed by the arrogance of the Zhu family.She came here twice this time, but the Zhu family's attitude towards her was a lot of neglect, and they didn't even look at her directly, which showed that they didn't take her seriously at all.

Although Matchmaker Qian loves money, she also knows what is good and bad. Seeing that Li Shi is so indifferent, there is no need to put her hot face on it.

Looking at Qian Matchmaker's swaying back, Li couldn't help sighing, but saw the old lady beside her, looking at her with displeasure, and hurriedly said: "Today, the concierge doesn't know how to do things. I didn't intend to alarm you, but..."

The old lady waved her hand: "I didn't want to be alarmed, but I was alarmed. What's going on?"

The reason why the old lady was patient and listened to Matchmaker Qian talking nonsense was because she couldn't understand why Tong Chuchu got involved with the Jia family.

Li Shi knew that the old lady must be very angry now, but she didn't know how to explain it, so she could only pick the most important thing and say how she deliberately sent Tong Chuchu away in order to let Shen Yuechen have a safe pregnancy.What's more, it was how restless she kept herself in the temple, which finally attracted the attention of Jia's family.

The old lady felt ridiculous when she heard this.

That Tong Chuchu was obviously the candidate for Zhu Jintang, why is it that the Jia family has taken a fancy to him now? What is this?

The old lady looked at Li Shi and asked, "Is this your plan, or her own plan?"

Li quickly clarified for herself: "Of course it's the girl's own plan. I didn't know about it."

"You are her elder, and you brought her into Zhu's house, so you should be responsible for something like this."

It is Li Shi's fault that an elder can't control the younger generation and let her do whatever she wants.

Li Shi lowered her head and said, "I know, I will give you a satisfactory explanation for this matter."

The old lady patted the table lightly and said, "You don't need to explain anything to me, just don't let outsiders see the joke."

Li Shi's face darkened, and he nodded in agreement, but he didn't dare to say anything else.

She knew she hadn't thought it through and made a mistake.Therefore, she had to send Tong Chuchu back to Liuzhou as soon as possible, lest she stay here with ulterior motives and cause trouble...
