The daily life of a concubine's daughter

Chapter 150 Sir, look, the lady is rolling her eyes at you

The fourth day of February is an important day. The Duke of Zhenguo escaped the disaster, and Shi Mingzhu came to Ganlu Hall to pay his respects for the first time on that day.

The old Duke has told his children and grandchildren not to come and pay their respects, but how could anyone dare not come?

Everyone was surprised.

The brothers rushed forward, happily surrounded Shi Mingzhu, and asked about her well-being.

When the female relatives saw Shi Mingzhu, they were probably exhausted both physically and mentally due to the chaos in the mansion for many days, so they didn't feel very surprised. Fu Nanjun and the other two treated them with cold eyes.

Rong had to pretend to be surprised. She took her hand and asked her how she was feeling with a smile.

Shi Yao, who was in the inner room, suddenly heard Shi Mingzhu's voice. She was so surprised that she opened the curtain and came out. She put her hands together, bowed to the four directions and the heaven and earth, and cried with joy:

"Big sister! It's great to see you out and about! Thank the gods and Buddhas, it seems that the money I donated was not wasted! Amitabha, infinite life and blessings!"

Everyone: "..."

Shi Mingzhu: “…”

She struggled hard to recover from her illness, but in the blink of an eye, it was all thanks to Shi Yao's prayers to the gods and Buddhas...

Shi Mingzhen and Shi Mingkui immediately went to see Shi Mingchen.

Shi Mingchen moved his lips, but in the end no bad words came out.

There was chaos in the mansion these days, and his mother asked him to stay away from Shi Yao, but he ignored her.

Because he didn't make much noise anymore, people noticed him less and less.

Shi Mingzhen and Shi Mingkui went to see Shi Mingmo at the same time.

Shi Mingmo was absent-minded, staring at Wang Fan angrily - Wang Fan actually brought those three little sluts to Ganlu Hall, how could they be worthy of showing themselves in front of their grandparents!

Shi Mingying was the first to speak, crossing his arms over his chest and sneering, "You are really good at flattering yourself!"

Shi Yao wiped away her tears and immediately retorted: "At least I have donated several thousand taels of silver to pray for the health of my elder sister, and I have been giving alms and accumulating virtues every day. What have you done? Just go to my elder sister on a day off to talk nonsense? Humph!"

Shi Mingying was very confident and wanted to say that he often asked his wife to visit Zhuzhu and asked her to find expensive tonics to send to Zhuzhu.

Shi Yao had already intimately held Shi Mingzhu's arm, and started to talk as if she was teaching her younger sister the ways of the world: "Big sister, let me tell you, the one who is willing to spend money on you is the one who truly cares about you. Those who speak sweet words and flattering rhetoric are the most hypocritical!

Especially those who outsource their "filial piety". They just talk a lot but make their wives run around all the time, and the good reputation goes to the men alone.

If the wife does something wrong, the man, who has done nothing wrong, shows his kindness and filial piety by blaming his wife, and lets the wife bear all the bad reputation. This kind of man is the most vicious!

Sister, you must keep your eyes open when you look at people in the future, and don't let these hypocrites fool you!"

Shi Mingying's face turned pale and blue, and he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

All the men present were uncomfortable.

The women suddenly looked at Shi Yao with new eyes, and felt refreshed after hearing what she said.

Not a single word Shi Yao said was wrong!

This is what they think in their hearts, but they dare not express it due to etiquette.

Why do they work themselves to pieces, but it is the men who get the good reputation?

If something goes wrong, everyone in the family will blame the woman, and she is the only one who gets a bad reputation?

Shi Mingzhu couldn't break free of Shi Yao's iron-like shackles. The hairs on her body stood on end. The more she looked at Shi Yao, the more she looked like a wandering ghost in a human body.

She knew that Shi Yao was referring to her brothers, so she did not sympathize with her sister-in-law and aunt, and forced a smile:

"Men work hard outside, so naturally, household chores can only be left to women. Men take care of the outside world, while women take care of the inside world. This is the right way for the world and the way for a harmonious and prosperous family."

Shi Jianan, who was ordered by his father to reflect on his mistakes at home, smiled and said, "Zhuzhu is sensible and has the demeanor of a lady from a noble family. Shi Yao, don't use these rustic and vulgar words to make a fool of yourself."

Shi Mingying immediately agreed: "That's right, that's right!"

Shi Yao pointed at Rong who was standing beside her and said, "Master, look, the Madam is rolling her eyes at you! It's obvious that the Madam doesn't agree with what you said at all!"

Rong: “…”

Shi Jianan: “…”

Everyone: "..."

Le Anning looked at Shi Yao with sparkling eyes and an admiring expression as if to say "This is my idol".

Unfortunately, Shi Yao was being watched by everyone, and no one was looking at her.

Look, who dares to say that Shi Yao is not favored now?

Even though she is not favored in the eyes of some people, she is the focus of attention wherever she goes.

This treatment is almost catching up with Shi Mingzhu.

Shi Mingchen was envious and jealous!

Whenever he made trouble, he was only scolded or beaten with a stick.

Shi Yao confronted the whole situation but was unharmed, and it was the others who were upset.

Shi Mingzhen changed the subject and said, "Stop talking nonsense. Zhuzhu, go in quickly and pay your respects to the old lady. Don't keep her waiting for too long."

Shi Yao smiled jokingly, "Third brother, shut up! Grandmother can't stand the voices of you unfilial descendants these days. Please greet and bow quietly, and then go back quickly. Grandmother said, don't bother her here."

Shi Mingzhen: “…”

Don't hit a smiling person. Even if Shi Yao didn't smile, what dared he do to Shi Yao in public?

Tao Ziyi chuckled, hurriedly pulled him away, and mocked him in a low voice: "You haven't learned enough from your lesson, have you?"

Shi Yao took Shi Mingzhu's arm and went inside, leaving the others outside. She smiled as she walked, "Finally we've driven away this annoying Third Brother. Big sister, grandma and I have been thinking about you every day, worrying about your health. You came here today in good health, and grandma will be happy to see you. Maybe you'll be better today."

The rest of us felt a lump in our hearts.

Well, they are an eyesore too. Let’s leave early to avoid being chased away.

When the lady saw Shi Mingzhu coming to pay her respects, she was very excited. She hugged her and called her darling, baby, and good girl... Her eyes were moist and she was happier than if she had recovered from her illness.

Shi Yao was very obedient and helped the lady take the medicine. Then she left and went back to Guanju Courtyard.

It was not until Shi Mingzhu left that the lady remembered Shi Yao. She was startled and asked Aunt Tang: "Where is Yao?"

Aunt Tang smiled and said, "Go back and tell them that you and the young lady haven't seen each other for a few days. What world of yours is left for you two? Talk to each other nicely to comfort the young lady and yourself."

The lady's fingertips trembled slightly on the quilt, and she sighed, "I was sick and confused, and I didn't have enough energy, so I ignored her. No wonder she didn't say anything for a long time, it turned out that she was gone. I love her in my heart."

Aunt Tang chuckled and said, "That matches what the second young lady said. The second young lady said that she is not jealous and asked you not to think too much about it."

The lady's heart was filled with sadness.

What does it mean to not be jealous?

Is it because he knows that she is not as favored as Zhuzhu and understands her own position, so he dare not fight for it?

"This child is so well-behaved that it makes people feel distressed."

Aunt Tang said, "Isn't it?"

Just now, the second girl was the only one serving the old lady, and the eldest girl didn't even lend a hand.

However, the old lady didn't think there was anything wrong with it, so she didn't feel comfortable reminding her.
