Zhu Men Ji Shi

Chapter 289 Xiaotao is a thorn in the side of the new wife
Zhu Jinlun came to see her last night, but he didn't stay overnight, he seemed to be very concerned about the wife who just married, and couldn't bear to let her stay alone in the empty room just after entering the house.

Xiaotao knows her identity well, so she will naturally not do those things that don't know how to measure. Besides, it is impossible for the second young master to have no thoughts about Du Juan.

Zhu Jinlun heard the news of Du Juan's death from his mother. Although Chai kept saying that Xiaotao killed her, he still had some doubts in his heart.

How could a weak child like her harm someone?

He didn't believe that she would harm others, even if she did something, it was forced by Du Juan and she couldn't help herself.

Xiaotao thought for a long time about how she should explain to Zhu Jinlun, but fortunately, before she opened her mouth to explain, he had already thought out an explanation for her.

"The matter of Dujuan is in the past. No matter what you do, I will not pursue it anymore. Now, you and the child are the most important, and nothing else is important. Dujuan has served me for many years, and I know what she is Such a person, so I believe in you and forgive you..."

When Xiaotao heard this, she silently leaned her head on his shoulder, weeping silently.

When Zhu Jinlun saw her like this, I felt pity for her, she was so charming, she couldn't help sighing, she reached out and took out an emerald green bracelet from her bosom, and gently put it on her slender wrist. From the first time I saw it, I thought of buying it and giving it to her.

The jade bracelet has been in his arms for a long time, and it has been covered warmly. Wearing it on his hand, it doesn't feel cold at all.

Xiaotao stroked the jade bracelet lightly with her fingers, and couldn't help sobbing softly, "It's so beautiful."

Zhu Jinlun pondered slightly, before saying: "You can take care of your baby with peace of mind, I will give you what is due to you, but from now on, you can no longer fight, you can no longer grab, don't covet those things that don't belong to you, keep your own stay by my side."

Because he really likes her, he can turn a blind eye and turn a big problem into a small one.However, his patience is only this time.

Xiaotao's heart tightened, then she nodded slightly, and said softly: "As long as the second young master is by your servant's side, this servant will not ask for anything."

He is her greatest reliance, with him, she feels at ease from the bottom of her heart.

Zhu Jinlun had no intention of letting Xiao Tao down, so he made his promise like a man.

Giving her a title is also a reason to give her peace of mind.

He Yalin, who is newly married, has a small knot in her heart because of Xiaotao and this matter.

On this day, two young maids from the kitchen gathered together, gossiping, and inadvertently mentioned Xiaotao.

As a result, Yun Xi, who happened to be passing by, heard them, and couldn't help scolding them all.

"Things who chew their tongues, there are no rules, who told you to spread gossip here..."

It's not uncommon for little maids to talk badly, but today they are talking about Xiaotao.

The lady will be in the room now, and the windows of the room are open, so I will definitely hear their gossip.

After hearing this, the expressions of the two servant girls changed, they hurriedly bowed their heads and retreated, only to see a person walking out from the opposite room, this person was the other servant girl beside He Yalin, Yunxiang.

She waved at the two servant girls and said, "You two come in, Second Mistress has something to ask you."

Upon hearing this, Yun Xi hurriedly led the two little maids in.

He Yalin was sitting in the room drinking tea while looking at her dowry list, preparing to sort it out as soon as possible.

Unexpectedly, there was someone whispering in the courtyard, disturbing her tranquility.

Yun Xi led the two maids forward, and she couldn't help saying: "Miss is upset, it's because these two little maids don't understand the rules..."

Before she finished speaking, He Yalin raised her hand, interrupted her, then looked at the two maidservants, and said, "You two give me the whole thing you said in the yard just now." Say it again."

Yun Xi was taken aback when she heard the words, and hurriedly said: "Miss, what's so good about those gossips, my heart hurts your ears."

"No, I want to hear it." He Yalin insisted.

Right now, she wanted to hear everything about that woman, and she had to.

The two servant girls looked at each other in blank dismay, and then they could only repeat what they had just said.

The more He Yalin listened, the more she frowned, and she couldn't help asking to confirm: "Are you telling the truth?"

The two servant girls nodded repeatedly, "Returning to Second Grandma's words, the servants are telling the truth. Although the servants are talkative, they dare not lie. The matter of Miss Xiaotao has already caused an uproar, and it has been spread all over the house. From the old man and the old lady, down to us slaves and girls, everyone knows about it."

He Yalin frowned slightly, waved her hand, and signaled them to go out, feeling very annoyed in her heart.

She thought she was just a good-looking vixen, but she didn't expect that she would be such a cruel and merciless master who dared to do things like poisoning others, so what else in this world would she not dare to do.

He Yalin couldn't help but shook her head for a while, feeling that she was disappointed with the Zhu family and Zhu Jinlun again.

She thought he was a bookish person, not a person who likes to spend time and drink, but she didn't expect that he would judge people by their appearance like this, without distinguishing good from bad.

He Yalin clenched the handkerchief secretly, thinking: Mother is right, the world is as black as crows.There is no man in the world who is careless.

Seeing that her young lady's face became ugly, Yunxi immediately said, "Miss, this Xiaotao doesn't sound like a kind person, you have to be careful."

He Yalin stood up slowly after hearing this, and said, "It seems that I really have to meet her in person."

Xiaotao is still locked in the room by the second wife to think about her mistakes, and she may not be able to come out in a short time.

Yun Xi took a step forward and said: "For a humble person like her, why should Miss go to see her? Wouldn't it be embarrassing to see her..."

He Yalin said lightly: "Whether I like it or not, she is the second young master's woman. We are all in the same yard, and we will meet sooner or later."

She knew that Xiaotao was a beauty, so she deliberately dressed up a little bit.After all, as a new daughter-in-law who has just entered the door, it should be her duty to dress festively.

After seeing Xiaotao's delicate face, He Yalin couldn't help feeling disgusted, not simply because of jealousy, but because she found it troublesome.

With such a peach-faced woman beside her husband, no one would feel at ease.

Although He Yalin was unhappy in her heart, she still pretended to be gentle and stretched her eyebrows, with a faint smile on her face, but a faint trace of disdain and contempt flashed in her eyes looking at Xiaotao.

He Yalin's sudden visit did not catch Xiao Tao off guard, she had been waiting for her.Now, it's finally hard to see the real face.

Xiaotao is pregnant, so she doesn't usually think much about dressing herself up, instead she likes to dress comfortably and casually.This time, she, who was dressed in plain clothes, stood with the gorgeously dressed He Yalin, and she inevitably lost her momentum in an instant.

Originally, He Yalin didn't want to use her status to overwhelm others, so she was a little surprised by her overly plain attire.

Although Xiaotao has her heart hanging, she still tries her best to show herself neither humble nor overbearing, a little docile.

To be honest, He Yalin has no intention of wooing her at all, but it's not the time to draw a line with her, even if she doesn't like it, she has to wait until she gives birth to the child.

He Yalin kept staring at Xiaotao's stomach intentionally or unintentionally, feeling mixed feelings in her heart, not to mention how uncomfortable it was, and it would be even more difficult if she wanted to act.

"Looking at my sister's pregnancy, I guess it will take more than four months."

Xiaotao nodded in response, stroked her belly, and said softly, "Go back to Second Grandma, it will be five months in a few days."

He Yalin nodded when she heard the words, the smile on her face faded a little.

"Since that's the case, sister Xiaotao should take good care of her body. Usually, go out less and lie down more in the room."

Xiaotao blinked and said with a smile: "Thank you for your concern, Second Mistress. This servant is thinking behind closed doors, and cannot go out. Even if she wants to, she is not allowed. It stands to reason that this servant should have gone to pay Second Mistress a long time ago, but it's a pity..."

When He Yalin saw that she had passed the incident of her punishment so lightly, she felt that her skin was thick enough.

He Yalin looked at the face full of soft light in front of her, and couldn't believe that she could poison people.

However, she did do such a thing, and it was known everywhere.

The more vicious and vicious a person is, the more he will pretend to be innocent, weak and harmless.

He Yalin originally thought that if she was just an arrogant and charming woman, she would be easy to deal with, but she is like this. I think the second master was also confused by her innocent appearance, so he always treats her So caring... After meeting Xiaotao, that night, He Yalin and Zhu Jinlun said truthfully: "I met Miss Xiaotao today, and she is indeed a lovely beauty. To be honest, I really didn't expect that, She'll be that kind of person."

Zhu Jinlun paused when he heard the words, then picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea, took a few sips and said, "Why? She is different from what you imagined."

He Yalin smiled meaningfully: "It's so different."

Seeing that she seemed to be pointing something, Zhu Jinlun said again: "Although I feel sorry for you, she is pregnant after all. Now, it has been almost five months, and it is time to have a rectification of her name. It’s not troublesome to say the least, it’s just a cup of tea.”

He had said before that he would give her a title, but He Yalin said that she would think about it.

By now, he hoped she had thought it all over.

He Yalin took a deep breath, and said slowly, "When things are like this, if this concubine keeps insisting on herself, it will seem too unreasonable. Xiaotao is someone the second master likes, so she is naturally someone who this concubine should take good care of. Therefore, for the sake of the second master, I am willing to be beautiful as an adult."

If she keeps objecting, although it can make her feel relieved, it will also make Zhu Jinlun feel dissatisfied with her.

They are still newlyweds after all, and He Yalin doesn't want her husband to feel disgusted with her. What's more, it's normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines. other's.

Rather than doing this, it's better to let him pick one he likes, rather than forcing one he doesn't like.As for that Xiaotao, she also has the confidence to make her docile and let her learn to behave with her tail between her legs.

He Yalin's generosity to Xiaotao made Chai feel very heartbroken, and felt even more sorry for her new daughter-in-law.

This afternoon, when the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were talking, Mrs. Chai held her hand, patted her lightly, and said, "You did the right thing about Xiaotao. As the main wife, you must be tolerant." As a mother, I know the character of the boy Nylon the best. He doesn't say anything on the surface, but he knows the importance in his heart, and he will never treat you badly in the future."
