Shi Xulin looked at Shi Jiang looking at him with a confused look on his face, and suddenly a breath filled his heart, unable to go up or down.
"Okay, you have sharp teeth and a sharp mouth. It seems that you have recovered from your illness. Why don't you show the third lady a seat?"
Before Shi Xulin could straighten up and scold Shi Jiang for being unruly, the old lady stopped him.
The old lady took a deep look at Shi Jiang and asked the maid to add an extra seat.
She didn't want to give face to Shi Jiang, but suddenly thought of her eldest grandson Shi Heng.
Regarding this smart eldest grandson, she not only hoped that he could revitalize the family, but also felt that if he really gained power, she might not have a voice in the family.
If we don't handle it well this time, when Shi Heng comes back, I'm afraid she will have a headache if this girl says anything in front of him.
As the old saying goes, everything thrives when the family is in harmony.
Their family at this time was not a direct branch of the family in Longxi. Their family had been moved out in the previous generations. After arriving in Jiangnan, few of them could become famous.
Most of them are proficient in general affairs. Today's Shifu was also divided into houses at the time of the old lady. The old lady was good at making money, but after the old lady left, the life of the family became worse day by day, but the old lady got used to it.
The luxury before was still spent the same way it was spent before.
For this reason, Shi Xulin married Shi Heng and Shi Jiang's mother Pan as his wife, and then took his beloved Qian Tao as his aunt.
The reason why I married Pan was because she was from the largest weaver in the south of the Yangtze River and was the legitimate daughter of the Pan family. When she got married, the dowry given by her family was a real red dowry.
He was given six manors alone, not to mention thousands of acres of fertile land, and countless gold, silver and jewels.
After Pan married into the Shi family with such a large sum of money, the whole family supported Pan at first.
After Shi Heng, the legitimate son and eldest grandson, was born, the family favored Pan even more.
At first, Ms. Pan felt that she was very happy. Her mother-in-law was loving, her husband treated her like jewels, and she had a lovely and handsome son. Her life couldn't be more complete.
However, it was only when she was pregnant that Jiang realized that it was all an illusion.
Mother-in-law is kind because she holds a lot of money in her hands and is waiting for her daughter-in-law to show her filial piety.
Her husband treats her like jewels and treasures, but he turns around and treats other women with all his heart and soul. The so-called love is just random nonsense!
Except for his own son, nothing is true.
After giving birth to Ginger, she died of depression.
Her dowry also fell into the hands of the old lady. It can be said that all the food and expenses for the Shi family now belong to Pan.
For several generations, no one in the Shi family has a promising future, and Shi Heng is an exception. He has been smart since he was a child, but he was awarded the title of scholar at the age of twelve.
If he passes the exam again this time, he will be the youngest person to be elected.
Originally, she and the boss wanted to suppress Shi Heng, but Shi Heng didn't know what method he used to get the clan elders to support his study. Even if they were unwilling, they could only hold their noses and agree.
The old lady's head hurt when she thought of Shi Heng.
Shi Jiang didn’t care whether the old lady had a headache or not!
Now that she had opened her mouth, as soon as the servant girl brought the stool, she climbed directly onto the stool, took the bowl and chopsticks and started eating.
Seeing this, Shi Xulin frowned, feeling that this daughter had no rules and was not up to the mark at all.
When Liu Yun'er saw Shi Jiang serving the dishes, she couldn't help but frown. When she saw that Shi Jiang actually refused to let the maid wait for the dishes, she almost threw herself on the table and picked up all the dishes on the table.
I felt a little nauseous and put my chopsticks on the table.
With a look of anger and disdain on his face, he said: "Cousin Jiang'er, what about your dining etiquette? Have you been eaten by a dog? I don't see that the old lady is still there. Why do you dare to reach out and pick things up everywhere without any care? People who don't know,
I thought you were escaping from nowhere!"
Without raising his head, Shi Jiang first picked up all the vegetables from the dishes on the table and put them into his own bowl.
Whether to eat or not is another matter. Her stomach is only half full now.
If you want to eat these things put into a bowl, it's not impossible to eat them.
However, she didn't do this just to eat so much, she just wanted others to cause trouble for her.
Therefore, when Liu Yun'er laughed at him like this, he was not angry. After filling two large bowls of food, he raised his head and looked at Liu Yun'er.
He smiled at her and then replied: "Cousin Yun'er is really a genius. She actually knew that I came here to escape from famine. Who told me that no one gave me food in the yard? I just saw a little food.
My eyes are green, aren't I? Hey, if cousin Yun'er and my grandmother hadn't still remembered me, I would have thought that I was a wild child who came from nowhere to escape, so I didn't want to be treated by the servants in the house, and I didn't even have hot food.
Withholding.”
The old lady originally wanted to cover up the matter, but now Liu Yun'er and Shi Jiang had completely lifted the veil of shame. She was so angry that she covered her heart and pointed at Shi Jiang.
"You...you...!"
"Grandma, you also feel sorry for your granddaughter, don't you? As they say, a child without a mother is like a grass. Sure enough, I am a child without a mother, even that guy can step on me. Grandma, you still feel sorry for me.
I, after all, I am your granddaughter! But don’t be angry, our family is not short of a few coins. These slaves are bullying the master’s servants. The worst they can do is to sell them off. Don’t be angry.
Come out for good."
Shi Jiang babbled. Originally, the old lady wanted to pretend that what Shi Jiang said made her faint.
Now it's better, now the old lady is angry with what those servants did.
After all, the old lady has been here for many years, and she has lived a comfortable life in the past few years. Except for her eldest grandson, who made her a little worried, he has never teased himself like this in front of her.
Now that Shi Jiang said this, the old lady was just pretending to faint from anger, but she actually fainted from anger.
When the old lady fainted, the filial sons and grandsons on the table suddenly became busy.
Shi Jiang smacked his mouth twice, it was a pity that this table of delicious food was wasted!
Anyway, they were definitely not in the mood to eat, so Shi Jiang directly poured several plates of hard vegetables together, then took them together with the full bowl of food he just put in, turned around and put them solemnly in Cuibi's hand.
"Cuibi, quickly bring these meals to my room. The old lady is not feeling well, so we won't cause any trouble. Also, if any servant dares to take advantage of Qiao for not giving you food, I will come to see the old lady.
Madam, let the old lady make the decision for us."
The old lady, who had finally woken up from being shaken, hadn't opened her eyes yet. Although the surroundings were noisy, she heard what Shi Jiang said to the maid, and she suddenly felt a lump in her heart and she couldn't catch her breath.
