Chapter 203 Not afraid of offending the Bodhisattva
Aunt Liu didn't expect that the person who contradicted her would be Qian Ling'er, and her face turned ugly for a moment, "But I asked casually, so you don't have to be so nervous."
"Why should I be so nervous?" Qian Ling'er has always disliked all the aunts in the house, and now that Aunt Liu is trying to catch her, she naturally can't help but be reluctant, "I am the third young lady in the house, and the Spring Equinox is the zodiac.
Young Mistress, if we don’t sit together, do we have to sit with you aunts and degrade ourselves?”
When these words came out, many people's expressions became expressionless.
Cao Yingchun twitched the corners of her lips, never expecting that she could sit here and watch a good show.
Aunt Liu's cheeks darkened and she looked at her displeasedly, "I am also your elder after all..."
"Elder?" Qian Ling'er looked at her expressionlessly, "Why don't you ask my mother-in-law if she recognizes you as an elder?"
How could Aunt Liu dare to ask? Although Xue Jinxiu didn't treat Qian Ling'er very well, she was also known for being a good protector. She ran over and said that she had caused trouble for the second roommate. Wouldn't it mean that Xue Jinxiu would come to her door and ask Xue Jinxiu to scold her?
Seeing that the atmosphere was getting awkward, Cao Yingchun rolled his eyes and tried to smooth things over, "Okay, okay, this is a nunnery. If you chatter here, you won't be afraid of offending the Bodhisattva."
Hearing this, Aunt Liu raised her eyebrows slightly and thought to herself that she was really not afraid. She didn't have a son to take the exam anyway, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
But in front of everyone, she could only smile and say: "Yes, I still hope that A Ling and A Xiu will win the top prize in martial arts, but we can't offend the Bodhisattva!"
Chu Ling and Chu Xiu were not the only ones to take the exam for the top spot in martial arts. By saying this, she clearly excluded Chu Quan, and she was obviously still angry with Qian Ling'er.
But Qian Ling'er didn't react much after hearing this. She also didn't want Chu Quan to be the top pick in high school, otherwise the other party's tail would be raised to the sky, and then her second wife would no longer have any status at all.
Compared with the fierce struggle between the civil examination people and the civil examination people, there was obviously no suspense, but Cao Yingchun couldn't help but inquire: "I don't know how Arun did in the exam. The Caogang incident is so big, and I don't know if there is any."
Didn't it affect him?"
When this was mentioned, everyone fell silent. Except for Shi Chunquin, I'm afraid no one here had ever dealt with Chu Run. In fact, few people in the entire Chu family cared about whether he could win the election.
Shi Chunquin hesitated for a moment and said, "Probably not. Fourth Master has always been very good at his homework, so he won't be affected by this kind of thing."
Cao Yingchun looked at her and continued to inquire: "I heard that you just went to see Weng Xiaohuan. She is now a nun. How is her life going?"
"It's pretty good." Shi Chunquin said bluntly: "I think she is much more relaxed than before, and her person is much more mellow."
"Really or not?" Cao Yingchun looked suspicious, "You have already become a monk, how can you live a good life?"
"What's impossible?" Aunt Liu had a clear understanding of this kind of thing. "She had such an experience that she would have to shed her skin even if she didn't die. Maybe becoming a monk might have saved her life."
This was true, even Shi Chunquin couldn't help but look at her twice.
Wang Jixue has been sitting among the aunts without saying anything. Although Shi Chunfen did not expose her last time when she informed Jiang Ya, she was too embarrassed to take the initiative to find Shi Chunfen again. But in addition to Shi Chunfen, the huge Chu family also
Not many people treat her well, and although she works hard to build a good relationship with other aunts, everyone still ignores her because she is a foreigner.
"The Cao Gang is just child's play. One moment they are willing to pay ten times the dowry to marry their daughter, and the next they agree to Weng Xiaohuan becoming a monk. This goes on and on. It doesn't look like a big gang at all." Qian Ling'er said angrily.
If Chu Run successfully marries Weng Xiaohuan, the second wife will have someone who can suppress Chu Quan, and the couple will be much more restrained, and they won't have so much expression when facing her.
It's a pity that all this fell apart when Caobang regretted his marriage. How could she not feel angry?
Shi Chunfen glanced at her and explained in a good-tempered manner: "This is Miss Weng's own wish. Even the old gang leader Weng may not be willing to force her."
Seeing that the topic was getting further and further away, Aunt Liu coughed lightly and stood up, "Forget it, forget it, I'm going back to my room to rest. The temple is full of the smell of incense. It's better to be quieter when I go back to my room."
This was because they thought they were noisy. Everyone looked at each other and tacitly agreed not to answer her words. Only a few aunts who usually played well with her quickly stood up and went with her.
As soon as Aunt Liu left, Cao Yingchun found it boring to sit here and quickly found an excuse to run away.
Although Qian Ling'er was able to chat with Shi Chunfen for a few words, she was not very satisfied with her attitude towards Caobang, so she quickly found an excuse to leave.
After going back and forth, only Shi Chunfen and Wang Jixue were left in the dining hall.
Perhaps because she has experienced too many things, Shi Chunfen is much calmer now. She and Wang Jixue looked at each other, and she did not mean to avoid them. Instead, she took the initiative to smile at her, "How is it? How is living in Chu's house during this period of time?"
Are you used to it?"
The more generous she was, the more uncomfortable Wang Jixue became. She twisted her body awkwardly and said with a smile: "It's not bad, everything is getting used to."
Shi Chunfen narrowed his eyes and said nothing.
During this period, she has been sending people to secretly monitor Wang Jixue, knowing that she would have some external injuries on her body from time to time. Considering the news that Oriole and Bailing heard from Jiang Ya, it is not difficult to guess that Chu Xiu really has the habit of beating her.
, although this matter was indeed beyond Shi Chunfen's expectation, but in line with the principle of not meddling in other people's business, she never interfered.
Nowadays, she has a rare opportunity to be alone with Wang Jixue. After thinking about it, she couldn't help but ask, "How is your relationship with the second master? Is he treating you well?"
At the mention of this, Wang Jixue obviously tensed up, straightened up, and subconsciously touched the wound under his sleeve, "Very good, the second master is very good to me."
Shi Chunfen's eyes darkened and she didn't ask any more questions. The couple had always lived their own lives. If even Wang Jixue, the victim, didn't bother to testify against Chu Xiu, then what qualifications did she have to ask?
What's more, even if this matter is really exposed, in a place like the Chu family, it may be difficult for Wang Jixue to get any justice.
Qian Ling'er, a real wife, could still live on thin ice in the second house, trying to make ends meet, but what could Wang Jixue, a mere aunt, do?
Seeing her silence, Wang Jixue looked at her and cautiously asked, "What about you? Jiang Ya has lived in the Chu family for so long, what are your plans?"
Shi Chunfen raised her eyes and happened to catch Wang Jixue's gaze. Seeing that she was avoiding her gaze with a panic on her face, she raised the corners of her lips slightly and said lightly: "I don't have any plans, just let nature take its course."
