Zhu Men Ji Shi

Chapter 374 The Battle of Tongues ([-])

While the two were talking, the servant girl sent by the upper room to report the news had already come running.

"Slave to Da Furen, Grandma please greet. The old lady asked the slave to come to Da Furen to meet the guests."

Li Shi was very surprised to hear this.

She had just arrived home, and the chair was not warm yet.The old lady clearly let her have a good rest just now, why would she suddenly let her go to see a guest...

To be honest, Li Shi is too tired to take a step now, wishing she could wash up immediately, and then fall asleep, sleeping with her in the dark.

Li Shi asked the maid: "Isn't Mrs. He in the room? How is it? Did the Second Madam and her talk smoothly?"

The servant girl looked distressed, and shook her head, "Returning to the words of the eldest lady, the conversation was not good. Mrs. He was aggressive, and she had nothing to say about the old lady and the second lady. So...so..."

That's why the old lady sent someone to invite Li Shi over, as if she needed help.

Li frowned slightly, hesitated a little, but heard her husband Zhu Feng say: "Since mother has called you, you should hurry over and have a look, and help with whatever you can."

Li Shi nodded reluctantly, "Understood." After speaking, he sighed and stood up.

As soon as her words fell, Shen Yuechen also got up and said: "Yuechen will also go with you."

Li Shi looked back at her: "What are you going to do? Let's rest first."

It’s fine if you don’t know it, since you already know it, you have to express it a bit,

Shen Yuechen took a step forward and said: "Although I can't help you much, there are multiple ways to do it. Let Yuechen go with you."

Li Shi was very tired, it was good to have her company, he simply nodded and said: "Well, come with me and have a look. See how thick-skinned this He family is..."

Hearing this, Zhu Feng coughed lightly, signaling his wife not to talk too much.

Li Shi glanced at her husband, then at her son, and said: "You two have a chat first, we will go back as soon as we go."

Li Shi brought Shen Yuechen all the way to the upper room, and when she saw the old lady and Chai Shi sitting in the room sullenly, she knew that the situation was far more serious than what the maid said.

"Where is my wife?" Li asked first.

The old lady said: "This meeting is talking to my daughter about each other's concerns in the courtyard. Really... I don't know how they will arrange us for this meeting."

Although Li Shi has been away from home for many days, she has been exchanging letters with her family, so she knows everything that should be known.

"It's a joke! The He family is ashamed of themselves, and has done such a scandal, what face do they have to accuse us?"

Li's temper is straightforward, and he doesn't like to talk around corners, "If you want me to say, since the He family is so ignorant, you can't be polite to them. Hurry up and ask Ning Lun to write Xie off, take it out and press her fingerprints, and then let the He family write it down. Take He Yalin back today, and we can make peace with each other."

Hearing this, Mrs. Chai couldn't help looking up at Mrs. Li, feeling a little displeased, and secretly said: "After all, I'm just watching the excitement. No matter how messed up the He family is, it's still an official family. What's more, He Yalin's father is in the officialdom. After working hard for many years, I have made friends with many powerful people, so I will offend you if you say I offend you."

The old lady also felt helpless, and said: "It's not time to tear your face, let's take a look again. Before, didn't that child Yalin say that she didn't want to stay? Didn't she say she wanted to leave? Since she wanted to leave , then go back with her mother, wouldn't it be better."

Li Shi disagreed and said: "A moment of anger, how can it be counted."

No matter how unruly and strong He Yalin is, she is not a brainless person.Once a woman is divorced and returned to her natal family, her life is completely over. There is no hope at all, not to mention being pointed at the back of the spine every day and talking about it. Such days are no different from hell.

Li expected that what He Yalin said was just a moment of anger, and she didn't really want to leave Zhu's house.

The old lady thought for a while, looked at Shen Yuechen who had been bowing her head in silence, and suddenly asked, "Yuechen, what do you think?"

Speaking carefully, this matter has something to do with her, and she also understands the ins and outs of the matter, so she is naturally qualified to speak.

Shen Yuechen's eyes flashed, and she pondered slightly: "Yuechen and Da Furen have the same thoughts. Second Mistress is reckless, her words are quicker than her heart, she cares about Second Brother so much, she will never leave easily."

As soon as these words came out, the old lady sighed again.

"Trouble! Trouble! Really trouble! If it's a woman from an ordinary family, it's easy to handle. It's really hard to deal with a family like the He family who is half high and not low."

When everyone was bored, the maid outside the door reported again: "Old lady, the second young master is here."

Chai was taken aback when he heard the words, thinking, what is he doing here.

While speaking, Zhu Jinlun had already stepped in, and his face was not very good-looking, gloomy, as if he was sullen.

Chai stood up and said, "Why are you here?"

After Zhu Jinlun saluted the elders one by one, he replied, "I'm here to see Mrs. He."

Chai frowned slightly: "What did you see her for? She is very dissatisfied with you now."

Zhu Jinlun lowered his head and said, "My son knows, but it doesn't matter."

"What's okay? Why do you listen to her nonsense. You go back first, and it's not too late for you to come forward when the matter has a result." After Chai said this, she stepped forward and pushed his shoulder , Said: "You go back first, don't stay here."

The old lady also said: "Yes, it's not convenient for you to talk here, but it's not good."

Zhu Jinlun had no choice but to give up when he heard the words, turned around and backed out.

After a while, the maidservants came to report that Madam He and Second Mistress had talked and were coming here together.

Chai adjusted his clothes unconsciously, took a deep breath and said, "It seems like we're going to waste some more time."

The mother and daughter hold hands and look at their tearful eyes, both eyes are red from crying.

Mrs. He brought her daughter to the upper room, went straight to the old lady Xingshi and asked her guilt: "You Zhu family is really deceiving people too much. How can you torture a good person like this? Even if she made a mistake first, she shouldn't be punished." House arrest and abuse... She is the daughter-in-law of your Zhu family every day she doesn't leave the Zhu family, how can you be so cruel and treat her like this, it's too much."

The old lady gritted her teeth when she saw what she said, and said: "We just let her think about her mistakes behind closed doors. There is no shortage of food and clothing, and there are people around to serve tea and water. Is such treatment considered abuse? "

Mrs. He looked at her daughter's thin cheeks, her eyes were full of distress.

"At this point, what's the use of ignorant sophistry? You look at Yalin's appearance, she is so thin that she almost has a bone left. Could it be that she has had a good life to become like this?"

Recently, He Yalin has been preoccupied with many worries and has trouble sleeping and eating. She looks haggard a lot. Fortunately, she has a good foundation at a young age. She just looks haggard, but there is no serious problem in her body.

The old lady ignored her unreasonable troubles, and only said to He Yalin: "Tell me, come and make it clear in front of everyone, how have our Zhu family treated you badly these days?"

He Yalin kept silent on purpose, not saying a word.

Seeing this, the old lady couldn't help getting angry, she patted the table repeatedly and said, "It's really disappointing, we hurt you so much for nothing. Well, since that's the case, it's useless to talk more. The divorce letter has already been written Alright, I'll let someone fetch it, and after you take it, leave quickly. From now on, we will not be in touch with each other, and we will have nothing to do with each other."

Mrs. He didn't agree, she just said: "I want to see my uncle Jinlun, and I still have something to ask her face to face. My Yalin is not the woman of your Zhu family who will marry as soon as she wants to marry, and who will divorce as soon as she wants to rest. I swear today that I will marry you." Seek justice."

"Fairness..." Li Shi sneered: "My wife, this is really ridiculous. Human life is at stake. Do you know that your precious daughter almost got two lives on her hands. If it wasn't for timely treatment , today we are not here to persuade each other with good words, but to face Bo in court face to face."

Mrs. He blushed immediately after hearing this, "What? To the court!"

Li Shi showed the aura of being the mistress of the family, and continued: "The murderer pays for his life, this is the same principle through the ages. If someone is killed, do you think your He family can still have the momentum, as aggressive and messy as today? ?”

Perhaps it was because she was too tired, or because she was angry, Li's manner of speaking was very blunt.

However, it was her rudeness that made Mrs. He feel very embarrassed.

Mrs. Chai paid attention to the expression on her face, saw that her face was red and white, and immediately retorted: "How can a mere concubine be compared with the main family, it is only natural for the master to teach the servants a lesson."

What she said was a bit too strong and unreasonable.

Li couldn't listen anymore: "Indeed, Aunt Tao's humble life is nothing to worry about, but Xiao Qingyue, she is Jinlun's first child. Although she is a concubine, she is also an extremely precious child. If she is unfortunately killed , then this life, how will your He family give it back to us?"

Mrs. He trembled with anger when she heard the words, she didn't expect Mrs. Zhu's family to have such a powerful mouth.

However, she came prepared, and said with a sigh of relief: "Aren't they all living well? Don't bluff and scare people. Moreover, even if you want to confront Bo Gongtang, it may not be your Zhu family's reason." ! Doting on concubines and neglecting wives, spreading such a scandal will only make people laugh."

Just as Li Shi was about to speak, Shen Yuechen who was beside her suddenly said: "My wife, please be safe, don't be impatient, don't talk too much, and don't hurt your friendship."

She had been listening quietly by the side, and originally didn't want to interrupt, but seeing the situation getting worse and worse, if this continues, the two families will definitely quarrel.

Shen Yuechen just said a word, and He Yalin glared angrily over.

Seeing this, Mrs. He seemed to understand something immediately, and said mockingly, "Who is this one who just spoke? I don't know where it came out of nowhere. It's so unruly."

Shen Yuechen got up slowly, saluted and said: "I am Shen Yuechen, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhu family."
