Fruity Manhua Ting

Chapter 35
Hearing what Mu Shilan meant, the husband and wife were the only ones to see everything.

Sheng Shi and Mu Shirong looked at each other and felt relieved.

Picking up the blue and white porcelain teacup and taking a sip gracefully, Sheng said slowly: "Second Uncle, there are some things about the house, and my sister-in-law doesn't want you to worry about them, but I can't tell you about these things, you listen Don't be angry, sister-in-law still expects you to come up with an idea."

When Mu Shilan heard what his sister-in-law said, she understood three points in her heart, and she couldn't help asking tentatively: "Is there anything that sister-in-law can't say directly in front of brothers? Now that there are no elders in the family, sister-in-law and elder brother are the elders. Could it be Jia? What happened there?"

He was born as a Jinshi in two rankings, so naturally his thoughts are exquisite and clear. Seeing Sheng's embarrassed look, he also guessed seven or eight points.

Sheng didn't turn his face away, and didn't look at him, as if he didn't know what to say, he stopped talking for a while, and then forced a smile: "Speaking of it, it's also sister-in-law's fault, younger siblings came to Beijing from the countryside, naturally I need to go out more. It’s just that I was busy with the prince’s funeral, so I didn’t spare time to accompany my siblings.”

Before she finished speaking, Mu Shilan became angry. This Jia family is really worried. How many things are waiting for the sister-in-law here?

"Sister-in-law, she is a country woman. She doesn't understand anything. If there is anything wrong, sister-in-law just teaches me a lesson, and don't care about my face!" Mu Shilan's face was sincere.

The elder sister-in-law is like a mother, now that there is no mother-in-law, Jia has to serve the elder sister-in-law, how can she be so ignorant.

After hearing this, Sheng's eyebrows softened a little, and he let out a sigh of relief, "I understand what Second Uncle said, but there are some things that I can't say well."

She said hypocritically, causing Mu Shilan to be furious again.

She couldn't help but leaned forward and asked, "I don't know what sister-in-law is referring to? If it doesn't work, I'll go and talk to Mrs. Jia in person."

"That's great!" Sheng put on a graceful and magnanimous look, "There are some things that my siblings and I really can't talk about, after all, she doesn't know me very well."

She coughed lightly, seemed a little embarrassed, and said after struggling a bit: "It's nothing else, but recently, younger siblings often take Sister Wei out. Go out and see the world."

Mu Shirong followed suit with an "um" and echoed, "It's true that they just came from the countryside, so they should go out and have a look."

Mu Shilan looked at his brother and sister-in-law in puzzlement. Since it was nothing serious, why did he bring him here to talk about it in person?
Before he could think about it, Mrs. Sheng spoke again, "Sister Wei is too late, and she is about to talk about her marriage, so she can't go out all day. There are rules in the mansion for these clothes and jewelry. When they first came I had already asked the girl to send it over, maybe the younger siblings were not satisfied with these things, so they ran out and asked someone to buy a few more sets."

There was some grievance on her face, but it flashed just right, making Mu Shilan feel that this sister-in-law is really comparable to her mother, saying what should be said, and what should not be said is not at all nonsense.I didn't want him to know that I was wronged.

He was so angry that he could only feel his whole body trembling. What exactly is Jia Shi going to do?After all, he came from a merchant family, and he was vulgar everywhere.

When my daughter grows up, she should have the appearance of a lady, how can she be instigated to dress up all day long?
The girls from their scholars' families should be prudent, women's needlework is the most important thing, and they just need to know some piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, how can they know these things?

The hand hidden under his sleeve clenched tightly, he finally couldn't hold it anymore, and slapped the coffee table on the side with a "slap", causing Mu Shirong and Sheng's to jump down.

The two hurried to persuade: "It's not a big deal, just tell your siblings to let her know. There's no need to get so angry, be careful and hurt your hands!"

Sheng put on the appearance of the elder sister-in-law again, and reprimanded him tepidly: "Look at you, how old are you, and still like this? Go back and tell your younger siblings, or say that my sister-in-law can't handle things." , who will pick apart people!"

"How could it be?" Mu Shilan said with a smile, "If she really thinks that way, it can be seen that she is a confused person, and she can't even tell who is good to her and who is bad to her."

Sheng Shi nodded and said, "I'm relieved if you understand."

After a pause, she said again: "Also, I heard from the servants in the mansion that my younger brother and sister actually took the silver and asked Wei to go out of the city with a few male servants..."

"What are you going out of town for?" Mu Shilan thought it was just a few trivial things, and it would be fine to teach Jia a lesson later, but she didn't expect that she would make a fuss about going out of town?
The anger in his heart grew even bigger, and he sat there with his anger suppressed, listening to Mrs. Sheng speak in detail.

"I heard from people that my younger siblings asked Sister Wei to buy a few acres of land." Mrs. Sheng frowned, a little sad and aggrieved, "I didn't expect my younger siblings to keep this from me. Is there a shortage of food in this mansion? Already drunk? Let my sister-in-law, who is in charge, do what she wants to make her satisfied?"

She almost cried at the end, and Mu Shilan's scalp tingled when she heard it. Jia Shi, this country bumpkin, why is he so ignorant?
Not to mention serving the eldest sister-in-law like a mother, but why are you trying to make so many things behind your back?

Her daughter should be the company of her sisters, she can do needlework, read a book, etc. at home, but now she has been trained to go out with the servants, and even show her face to buy land?
Is it okay to not tell him such a big deal as buying land?Do you still take him as the head of the family seriously?

In a fit of rage, he got up and blurted out: "She has some money in her hand, so she doesn't care about her elder brother and sister-in-law. I'll go and let her hand over all the money to my sister-in-law. When Wei'er gets married It's better to have a little dowry, so as not to be ruined by her. There is a monthly payment at home, do you need to carry so much money in your arms?"

Shrugging off his stride and leaving, Sheng looked at his hurrying back, raised the corners of his mouth, and did not forget to shout: "Second Uncle, please speak softly, at least look at my face, don't quarrel with younger siblings!"

How can Mu Shilan, who is full of anger, still listen?I can't wait to kick Jia Shi upside down.

He went all the way to a small courtyard separated from the back cover room, saw that the courtyard door was still closed in broad daylight, immediately became angry, and kicked it open when he went up.

Mrs. Jia was discussing with Caiwei and his wife how to manage the ten-acre orchard, when they heard a loud noise outside the door, the mother and daughter were so frightened that they got up and looked around. break in.

Several newly bought little girls shrank in the corner in fright, only Li Yuexian stood behind Jia Shi with an attitude of watching the show.
