Zhu Men Ji Shi

Chapter 267

We all live in the same courtyard, although there are two floors of arched moon gates, they are not too far away.

Du Juan's eyes flickered slightly, and he deliberately asked: "Today we all eat and have fun together, why don't you see Miss Xiaotao?"

Those maidservants who were about to carry their chopsticks to pick up vegetables couldn't help but startled slightly when they heard her words, and then looked at each other, not knowing what to answer.

At the beginning, Du Juan became jealous because of Miss Xiaotao, committed a crime, and ended up being disgusted by the second young master. This is something everyone knows.

Right now, Miss Xiaotao is the most favored person by the Second Young Master's side, while Du Juan is squeezed out to Chai's side. Thinking about it, she must be very cruel to Xiaotao, wishing to take revenge on her.How could he be willing to eat at the same table with her?It's a good time today, if Miss Xiaotao really came, wouldn't it be to spoil her interest on purpose?

One of the bold women immediately replied, "Girl, that girl Xiao Tao never liked dealing with us, so she didn't come."

As soon as she finished speaking, someone next to her took up the conversation and said maliciously: "She is very delicate, how could she be willing to eat and drink with vulgar people like us?"

There was a sneer on Du Juan's face, and she thought, she didn't want to come, maybe she didn't dare to come.

She stood up slowly and said: "How can there be no sister Xiaotao in such a good day? She is being favored now, and she should be a bit airy. How about this, I will go over and invite her in person. You all take it easy first, I'll go back."

When everyone heard the words, their expressions were different, and they were a little uneasy.

Before Du Juan went out, someone behind him dissuaded him: "Sister Du Juan, you just have to rest for a while, let me go for you."

Du Juan turned around and said with a smile: "No need, I'd better invite them in person, so that people will feel honored."

Du Juan slowly came to the side courtyard, she hadn't stepped into the courtyard gate for a while.Ever since she followed Chai, she rarely had the opportunity to come here.

Last time, she followed Zhu Jinlun back silently, but before entering the door, she was frightened by Zhu Jinlun who turned around suddenly.

His eyes were sharp and his expression was cold. He stared at him a few times, but he didn't say a word, but waved his hand impatiently, motioning her to go away.

Du Juan didn't want to make him angry, so he could only walk back dejectedly, and returned to his room dejectedly all the way, feeling as if his heart had been stirred by fire, and he was in pain.

The second young master is her master and the only man in her life.She wanted to go back to him, even if she couldn't be an aunt, even if she was a slave for the rest of her life, as long as she could look at him every day, she would be content.

It's a pity that the second young master didn't give her a chance to make up for her mistakes, and the second wife, Chai, was pregnant with Liujia. She either ate or slept all day long, and she always looked tired and sleepy, and she didn't even think about her little things. up.

Du Juan didn't want to wait any longer, she wanted to go back to the second young master immediately, no matter what method she used, she would go back.

Now, Xiaotao follows Zhu Jinlun every day, eating and sleeping with him, and her own room is almost like a decoration. Although someone cleans it every day, it is actually empty all the time.

At this time, all the maids and women in the yard went to eat and have fun, and Xia Jiu was the only one who stayed by Xiaotao's side, chatting with her to relieve boredom.

Although Xia Jiu is young, she also likes to join in the fun.

Seeing her looking out of the window boredly, Xiaotao said, "If you want to go to the backyard, then go, you don't have to stay."

Xia Jiu thought she was hiding well, but she didn't expect to be seen by her, so she shook her head and said: "I don't want to go, I am willing to talk with the girl, those women are rough people, get together It's just gossip, nothing nice to say."

Xiaotao glanced at her with a smile, and deliberately asked: "Then what I said sounds nice?"

Xia Jiu nodded with a smile: "Girl, of course she is much better than them. The girl speaks softly, can read and write, and can play the piano. Everything sounds nice."

Xiaotao was delighted by her coaxing, she just smiled and lowered her head: "I thought you were an honest child, but I didn't expect you to be so glib."

Hearing this, Xia Jiu blushed slightly, and was about to speak, but saw a person slowly walking outside, looked at it carefully, couldn't help being startled, and quickly turned around and said: "Girl, Miss Du Juan has come into the courtyard..."

Xiaotao's face changed slightly, she raised her eyes to look, and before seeing Du Juan's figure, she heard her voice. "Is Miss Xiaotao here?"

Although Xia Jiu now has no worries about food and clothing with Xiaotao, she is still as timid as ever, especially when she met Du Juan, she still felt guilty and scared...Before, she was in front of the second lady. He told a lie, went along with Miss Xiaotao, and played with Du Juan together, making her lose power in front of the second young master.

According to Du Juan's character, he will never let it go, and he will definitely get it back.

However, because of that incident, she was called over by Mrs. Chai, and she couldn't get close to Xiaotao, so she couldn't do anything.

At this moment, seeing her suddenly appear, Xia Jiu was the first to panic. She hurried to Xiaotao's side and asked anxiously, "Miss, what should we do?"

There is no one in the yard now, if Du Juan gets angry and does something stupid, wouldn't it be too dangerous.

Xiao Tao's eyes darkened: "Don't panic, see what she wants to do first."

Du Juan walked into the courtyard slowly, feeling nostalgic looking at every plant and tree here.

Just when she was about to turn around and go to the wing room, Xia Jiu suddenly opened the door of the main room, looked at her with a slightly apprehensive expression, and said, "Sister Du Juan, you are here. Our girl invites you to come in and talk."

Du Juan was a little surprised, unexpectedly, Xiaotao would be in Zhu Jinlun's room.

There was an uncomfortable smile on her face, she just said: "Really? I'm going to the wing."

Xia wanted to stop her with eyebrows and eyebrows, but her aura was not enough, and Xiaotao also told her not to panic, everything was as usual, it would be better to be more comfortable.

As soon as Du Juan walked into the second young master's room, she saw Xiaotao sitting on Zhu Jinlun's favorite huanghuali chair, her expression was as calm as water, without any trace of timidity, and the meekness and humbleness of the past did not appear in her bright eyes.

Du Juan's heart tightened, and he felt that he could even see a little pride on her face.

That's right, the second young master's doting on her can indeed make her proud and proud.

Xiao Tao stares closely at Du Juan, secretly wary of her every move.

Defenses can not do without.She is still not sure if she is really pregnant.However, after all, she hasn't had her period for two months, and she is always sleepy and tired... When she was a child, she looked like this when she saw her mother was pregnant with her younger brother.Therefore, she must protect herself, protect her body, and not tolerate any mistakes.

If Du Juan knew that she might be pregnant, he would definitely be furious, and probably wanted to rush up and grab her by the neck.

Xiao Tao and Du Juan looked at each other for a long time, as if they were waiting for each other to speak first.

Xiaotao couldn't help but said first, "Sister Du Juan, why did you come here?" After speaking, she pointed to the seat beside her and said calmly, "Sister, please sit down."

Du Juan smiled when she heard this, seeing her posture really regarded herself as the hostess.

"Long time no see, Sister Xiaotao's complexion has improved a lot, rosy and pleasant, I must have lived a very happy life."

There was no smile on Xiaotao's face, and she still said lightly: "Thanks to the care and pity of the second wife and the second young master, I am indeed doing well. What about my sister? How are you doing as an errand by the second wife's side?"

Du Juan sneered again: "Of course. But, it's all thanks to sister Xiaotao."

Xiaotao lowered her eyes slightly, and said: "Sister came here on purpose, she didn't just want to chat with me, did she?"

Du Juan said: "The meals are set up in the backyard, and everyone is preparing to have fun together, but my sister is missing." When she said this, she paused intentionally, "Everyone is serving the master in the same yard, and we usually have a little sister. As a sister, if you are close, the younger sister should give you face."

Xiaotao pondered slightly: "Thank you for your kindness, sister, but I have a poor appetite recently, so I went to a place where I didn't eat or drink, which spoiled everyone's interest instead."

Du Juan stared at her face, and said in a slightly cold tone, "Your sister's words are not prevarication to me."

Xia Jiu said in a timely manner: "Sister Du Juan, our girl has indeed been having a temper tantrum recently, so please go back."

In the past two days, the girl's appetite has not been very good, as if it was a bit bitter summer.

After Du Juan heard this, instead of going to leave, she sat down straight away, looked at Xiaotao, and pretended to be concerned: "My sister is sick? Then I have to invite a doctor to come in and take a look, so as not to delay, there is a problem Yes, it made the second master worry."

It sounds like he's cursing someone.

Xiaotao trembled slightly when she heard the words, took a deep breath secretly, and said calmly: "It's just some minor problems, there's no need to bother asking a doctor."

There is still some news from the eldest grandma, so she is not ready to act rashly for a while.If she is really pregnant, the doctor will find out at a glance... But, before the second young master knows, she doesn't want anyone to know about it.

Du Juan knew that she would not go, but just wanted to come and meet her, to see how beautiful she is now, or how arrogant she is.

Xiaotao's calm and indifferent attitude made it difficult to find fault. Du Juan also had scruples in her heart, she didn't dare to act rashly, she just stood up and said, "Forget it, my sister doesn't want to go, and I don't want to force others to make things difficult for me."

Seeing that she seemed to be leaving, Xia Jiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Unexpectedly, that Du Juan stood up, instead of walking towards the door, he walked straight towards her and Xiaotao, with a smile that was not a smile, which made people a little scared.

Xia Jiu trembled slightly, and subconsciously stood in front of Xiaotao, facing Du Juan, tremblingly said: "What are you doing? If you dare to mess around again, the second young master will definitely not let you off..."

Du Juan glanced at Xia Jiu, stretched out his hand and pushed her aside, and said coldly, "You little bitch, do you think I'm really afraid of you?"

Du Juan slowly leaned down, staring at Xiao Tao's slightly tense face, with the corners of his mouth raised high: "Last time, I was careless and mistaken you, a fox, for a rabbit. I won't be so stupid again. Don't If you think that the second young master spoils you, you can rest easy, be careful, I will come back one day, and then there will be plenty of ways to deal with you little bitch."

"Then let me tell my sister the truth. I don't like to plot against others, but if someone insists on fighting against me, I won't let it go. I won't offend people if they don't offend me. If they offend me, I will offend them. If you If you dare to provoke me again, I promise you won't end well!" Xiaotao clenched her fists tightly and returned her words not to be outdone.
