When Chen Jue heard that the second wife had sent someone over, he was quite surprised and asked him to invite him directly.
Seeing that it was this woman, Chen Jue didn't ask for help and stood up and said, "Mama Mao."
Mao’s mother is a servant of the Shen family, and her husband Mao Kui is the manager of the second master. This time she “escorted” the second wife back to Beijing, which was the couple. Their son and son-in-law are now in Nanchang with the second master. Used to fool.
Mother Mao was polite and bent her knees to Chen Jue and said, "Third Brother, please come over and talk."
Chen Jue looked at the sky outside and frowned.
It was already dark outside and it was still snowing heavily. Why did the second wife look for him at this time?
The maid Chun-chan, beside Chen Jue, was always clever. He saw that something was wrong. He had already taken out his purse. While helping Mao’s mother, he stuffed it into Mao’s hand and asked in a low voice: “I’m so late and I’m still bothering my mother over here. Could it be that the second wife had something to tell the third brother? The third brother had just finished the shower and was still cold outside. What is the important thing?"
A maid asked about the master's affairs, but the young master next to him looked at it and it was not her turn to discipline her.
Mao's mother was also afraid that the second wife would be fussy, so she whispered: "Someone put maggots in front of her wife, saying that the third brother was having fun and drinking, and the wife was annoyed... I'm afraid there was any misunderstanding in this, should you go? Xun the second brother said..."
Although the latter sentence was said to Chun Yi, it was actually asking Chen Jue.
Chen Jue's face turned red, saying it was not shame or shame.
When eating the mat at noon today, Shen Rui did not give him any wine at first, but later he was so irritated that he asked someone to add a wine glass to him.
Chen Jue felt sad, so he deliberately ate a few more cups, which made him drunk. He was so excited that he never expected that he would be filial to him. Now it seems that he was going to cause trouble for Shen Rui.
With the temper of the second wife, he not only taught a lesson, but he was afraid he would take advantage of the problem, and even Shen Rui would lose.
In the past year and a half, Chen Jue had not been with Qiao, but found that she was hostile to Xiaochang and despised the little third wife, and was not close to anyone.
"Someone saw me having a drink?" Chen Jue said with a cold face.
The lunch banquet was held in Jiuruju. Only Liu Ya and Chunyan could go into the house to serve. Chen Jue was drunk at that time, but he went directly to Shen Rui's bedroom to rest and did not come out. Chen Jue didn't believe that gossip would be passed. Coming outside
Mao’s mother said: “I heard that I saw the third brother playing around in the garden, which was probably a misunderstanding. The second brother sent someone to ask the top scholar from the kitchen, which is something that everyone knows…”
Of course, only the person involved Chen Jue, Shen Rui himself knows.
Chen Jue is here at such age, and he is not involved in being unfilial by his cousin calling him to accompany him. It is inappropriate to drink alcohol during the filial period.
After hearing what Mao’s mother said, Chen Jue blinked and felt relieved.
If Shen Rui hadn't invited him to the house today, he would willingly confess his guilt in front of his second wife and would accept any punishment. After all, it was his negligence. He forgot that he had a small merit on his body. He was really filial to alcoholism. ;But it is related to Shen Rui, Chen Jue cannot admit this mistake.
He did not avoid Mao's mother, and lowered his head and sniffed his body. Because he had just taken a shower, the alcohol on his body had already dissipated.
Chen Jue breathed a sigh of relief and felt a little guilty in his heart.
Why didn’t I remember? My uncle just told me to be filial to my parents, so I completely forgot about it. Not only did I say that I was willful, but also my brother followed me.
"Since it is a wife summoned me, let's go." Chen Jue said.
Seeing this, Chunyi hurriedly carried out her hooded cloak, and said with a little concern: "The third brother's hair is still wet...
Chen Jue took it and said, "It's okay, it's only a few steps."
Having said that, Chen Jue couldn't help but shivered when he came out of the warmth of the house.
Seeing this, Mao's mother quickly accelerated her pace.
The north wind was sweeping snowflakes and whistling. In the cold and quiet night, the "click" footsteps became more and more clear.
As soon as Mao’s mother and Chen Jue entered the southwest courtyard, Qiao heard the movement outside and sat upright with a bit of solemnity on her face.
The heir and his son are not close to each other, and they have always been polite and polite.
Chen Jue stood in the corridor and Mao’s mother went into the house to report.
A maid came forward and took the lantern from Mao’s mother’s hand.
Mother Mao didn't care about the falling snow on her body, and bowed and said, "Madam, the third brother is here, waiting outside."
However, Qiao did not rush to call in and frowned and said, "Look at it carefully, can he eat alcohol?"
Mao’s mother said, “Maybe it’s a misunderstanding. The old slave looked at the third brother and didn’t look like he had eaten wine…”
Qiao's expression was a little slow, and then he snorted coldly: "If you eat wine at noon, you should be almost awake...
It’s hard for Mama Mao to answer the conversation again.
Qiao fiddled with her fingers, but she felt that she was not in good looks these days, and even her slender and fair fingers were disliked.
"Even if he didn't eat alcohol, he didn't wrongly accuse him of having fun and having fun?" Qiao said casually.
Seeing that she wasn't asking anyone to come in, Mao's mother was worried and hurriedly said, "Why would the wife ask the third brother to come in and scold him?"
The wind outside is cold and snowflakes are mixed with it. Chen Jue just came out of the shower and it was not easy to stay outside for too long.
Upon hearing this, Qiao's face felt a little disgusted.
She originally brought her heart fire and wanted to keep Chen Jue over and scold her; but her heart fire came quickly and disappeared quickly, so she was too lazy to curse people now.
Moreover, she was disrespectful to the beauty of the man and always avoided the man. Even though Chen Jue was just a teenager and her heir, she also felt guilty about being a petty-skinned girl in her heart and did not want Chen Jue to enter the house.
If Chen Jue was let go back like this, Qiao would not be willing to accept it.
She fiddled with her fingers, thinking about the days of the year she left Beijing.
If Chen Jue's heir had a little filial heart, he would not let the second master treat her like that. But she didn't think about how Chen Jue could be the master of the second master?
It's just a vent of anger.
Mama Mao stood there, anxious, but she didn't dare to say more.
Although the second master was entrusted by the second master and the eldest wife entrusted the affairs of the second wife to the couple after returning to the capital, they were slaves or not.
Chen Jue has already said the good things he should say. If he talks a little longer, Qiao would not tolerate her.
After about a cup of tea, Qiao seemed to remember that Chen Jue was still waiting outside, and looked up and said, "Go and ask him on my behalf, but I know I'm wrong. Do I think I'll punish him?"
Mother Mao responded and quickly turned around and came out.
The wind and snow outside became heavier, and the lanterns under the corridor were blown to shake.
Although Chen Jue stood in the corridor, he felt the cold wind thrilling.
Mother Mao looked at Chen Jue standing in the snow and looked worried, but she could only sing: "Mrs. Do you know if you are wrong? Should your wife punish the third brother?"
When Chen Jue saw Mao's mother screaming, he was stunned at first, and then he saw Mao's mother raise her hand and point to the correct room.
Chen Jue also raised his voice and said, "The child knew he was wrong. Since the wife was unhealthy, she should have come to serve the disease, but she didn't want to go to the garden to see her cousin, so she asked her to punish her."
Looking at Chen Jue's face turned blue with cold, Mama sighed in her heart, and then picked up the curtain into the house with her feet.
Through the doors and windows, Qiao had already heard Chen Jue's answer, but was dissatisfied.
It was obvious that Shen Rui had made a mistake in the rules and pulled his filial cousin out to accompany the guests. At this moment, it was all Chen Jue's own fault and he would not be related to Shen Rui.
Thinking that Xu treated Shen Rui as a treasure and valued him a little more than when Brother Luo was there, Qiao was full of resentment.
"Since I know I'm wrong, I'll just kneel outside for an hour and think about what it's the duty of being a Son of Man." Qiao heard Chen Jue's protection of Shen Rui and said coldly.
After hearing this, Mao's mother changed her face and hurriedly said, "Madam, it's snowing outside, and it's Caimu again before Brother Third came."
Halfway through his words, he was interrupted by Qiao: "What? Now my wife in this family is not calculating? Or are you, an old slave, who claims to have the orders from the second master, thinks that she can control me, her wife?"
After saying these heart-killing words, Mao’s mother dared not say anything else, so she knelt down and apologized.
Mrs. Qiao pointed to the maid next to her and said, "Go outside and pass on what I said just now."
The maid next to him was the one who came to Qiao today to complain. He was originally a second-class maid who was left by the second house in Beijing to see the house. Since he came back from beating Qiao, he was determined to rush to Qiao, and then he took the initiative to do something.
Now that she had the order, she went out arrogantly and passed on Qiao's words.
Chen Jue didn't think Qiao was deliberately making things difficult for him. After all, he was wrong today. After arriving here, he was wrong to admit his mistakes because he wanted to get Shen Rui out and admit his mistakes.
Kneeling for an hour also made him think about what the heir’s responsibility is.
Thinking of this, Chen Jue said "thump" and knelt honestly.
The maid saw that the yard was covered in white and there were many snowflakes falling on Chen Jue's body. She hesitated and felt a little reluctant.
She was so flattering to her second wife, just to get promoted to the next level. It would be great if her wife could be sent to Shen Rui's yard.
Because Shen Rui's Jiuruju had few maids, Chen Jue refused to ask for more maids, but the two young masters were getting older and they always had to add more people to serve them.
When he turned around and returned to the room, he saw Mama Mao still kneeling on the ground. The maid swallowed the words on his lips again, refused to say more, and said, "Madam, the maid passed the message, and the third brother had already kneeled. Get ready."
When he heard that Shen Rui was obedient, Qiao felt that his anger had subsided, but he still refused to order Mao's mother to get up.
In the past, she was sad that her mother died and had no intention of engaging in this old slave. She didn't want to indulge her again in the future...
In the main yard, Hongyun tightened her clothes and pulled Chun Parrot into the wing room, saying, "Why are you here at this time? But what's wrong with Brother Third?"
Chun Paeon put down the lantern and said with a worried look on his face: "Mrs. The second wife asked Mama Mao to call her third brother over. When she heard that she was talking, she was annoyed that her third brother went to the garden to play during the day. Some people said that our third brother had a drink, I I felt really uneasy, so I came over to find my sister to make an idea to see if I beg my wife to come over and take a look..."
Regarding the second wife and Chen Jue, Hongyun dared not be loyal and said, "The second wife is the mother of the third brother. If you want to teach a lesson, what's the point of making a few words from the third brother? You're too fussy, wait first, I Go back to my wife, see what the wife says.”
Chun Parrot said gratefully: "I'm sorry, sister..."
Hongyun turned around and went out and entered the room.
Xu was closing his eyes to rest when he heard the movement and looked up, "But is the master back?"
Hongyun shook her head and said, "The master hasn't come back yet, it's Chun Parrot beside my third brother... "
