Chapter Nine The Storm Is Coming
"Old lady, what did you say?"
Shen Xi almost dropped the cup.
It was Zhu Di who held her hand in time and stabilized herself.
Even so, everyone can see the extremely bad look on the other person's face and know that a storm is coming.
Zhu Wuyou stood with Shen Yuli, Shen Miaorou and Shen Huyao.
He glanced at Zhu Di's hand holding Shen Xi's hand calmly, sneered in his heart, and then looked away.
Don't worry, yours will come sooner or later...
"That's right, don't go out recently." While this was all at home, the old lady couldn't help but said: "You can give Zhu Wuyou a good meeting gift later."
When these words came out, Zhu Wuyou and Shen Ban subconsciously looked at the old lady.
Wow, how did this guy come up with this idea?
When the others heard this, they didn't even recover.
Shen Yuli was the first to object: "Grandma, you are too partial to her."
She glanced at Zhu Wuyou with a sinister look, and emphasized: "This time, she shouldn't have stood out. Many people in Beijing hate her. Now that you are taking care of her so favorably, I'm afraid people will think that she is standing out this time. , it’s all instigated by our Zhu family.”
"shut up!"
This time, Lord Zhu and Zhu Di spoke in unison.
After all, they were the sons of the family, the ones in charge of the household, and Shen Yuli had to purse her lips when they spoke.
Master Zhu said: "I don't want to hear such words again in the future."
He just said this, then lowered his eyes without saying anything, as if he was a good old man, but in fact he acquiesced to a lot of bad things happening.
Zhu Wuyou twitched her lips inwardly, "That's good. Master Zhu will only react when his face is at stake. He is indeed her ex-father-in-law."
"Okay." The old lady said quickly: "My granddaughter-in-law will go out less this time, but you..."
When her eyes fell on Zhu Wuyou, her eyes couldn't help but be filled with a bit of disgust. Even if she knew that the other person appeared and could help the Zhu family, the old lady still hated the other person's grandmother.
Who knows that Zhu Wuyou is so good-looking, too similar to the woman who had won the favor of her husband in the early years and doted on him a lot.
Back then, the old lady could have drugged the other person in one breath and killed him completely. But the person in front of her was truly a descendant of the Zhu family, so she couldn't do it too harshly.
The old lady reluctantly said: "Since Wuyou has won the favor of the nobleman this time, it is better to pay more visits to the regent."
"What?"
This time, everyone's eyes widened, admiring the old lady's performance.
Even now, she still had the idea, "The Regent is already old, and he has not yet heard about the idea of getting married..."
"Mom!" This time Mrs. Zhu could not bear it anymore and could not let her mother-in-law continue to fantasize.
She coughed dryly and said quickly: "What kind of status the regent is, how can our Zhu family contact him rashly?" The point is that the regent's actions are ruthless, which has aroused the fear of many ministers. Now they Zhu family If you get too close, I'm afraid it will cause trouble for your family.
When the old lady heard this, she curled her lips, but did not speak.
Suddenly, a soft girl sounded.
"My granddaughter is willing."
What?
As soon as these words came out, even Zhu Di, who was comforting the angry Shen Zi, looked over.
It was also the first time that he looked at such a concubine so seriously. At this moment, she was not as timid and timid as he remembered, but she actually had some hope.
"For the sake of the Zhu family, my granddaughter is willing to try to get close to the regent." Zhu Wuyou said word by word. He saw that everyone else was stunned, and surprises and calculations were inevitable.
Sure enough, it was the same as she had imagined before, but it still needed to be a bit more exciting.
Zhu Wuyou continued: "It's just that my granddaughter begs to renovate the tombs of my father and mother."
When these words came out, they were immediately greeted by silence.
Shen Yuli, who wanted to make trouble just now, curled her lips and scolded Zhu Wuyou for being stupid in her heart. Who didn't know that Zhu Wuyou's biological father was something that the old lady hated.
For this reason, the old lady did not make any effort and simply ordered a simple burial without any funeral ceremony to wish the family members.
This time, Mrs. Zhu and Mr. Zhu both looked at the old lady.
The old lady took a deep breath and said with a cold face: "Aren't you afraid of offending me?"
Zhu Wuyou looked a little scared, and his voice was a little lower, but he still said with certainty: "As a child, I can't be filial to my parents. I already blame myself. I also begged my grandmother to give my granddaughter a chance to have my parents' tombs repaired." After some time, my granddaughter can go to their temple to light lamps and pray."
As she spoke, she knelt down and seemed determined to do so.
The old lady pursed her lips and did not speak immediately. Mrs. Zhu stepped forward and whispered to the other party, and the other party reluctantly agreed.
"Okay, after all, you belong to the Zhu family, so it's not like you have to worry about a girl. You can do all these things."
"Okay, you go back first, I will ask someone to come over tomorrow to teach you."
After receiving these words, Zhu Wuyou stood up and smiled, looking even brighter, and left in a hurry.
She looked like this, which made Shen Yuli so angry that she wanted to make a fuss, but she was forcibly taken away by someone arranged by her parents.
Shen Miaorou and Shen Huyao had nothing to say and left one after another.
Looking at this scene, Zhu Di wanted to say goodbye to Shen Ban together.
But this time he was stopped directly by Mrs. Zhu.
"There is one thing I shouldn't have said too much. The second mother seems to be a bit reckless. In this case, I will take over your sister's dowry later."
"Mother-in-law!"
Shen Ba was at a loss and wanted to hold the person back, but was stopped by Zhu Di instead, and could only watch the person leave.
She waited to be taken back to the house by Zhu Di, feeling full of resentment, "Mom must still be thinking about my sister, that's why she doesn't want to give the things to me!"
It was the dowry of the eldest daughter of the Shen family, the true meaning of Wanli Hongzhu. She had been jealous back then, thinking about it for many days, thinking that it was about to fall into her hands, but she fell short and was furious.
"Second mother, you don't have to be like this." Zhu Di, who was in love with the other party after all, coaxed: "Mother is not greedy for power and money, she is just in charge temporarily. You just need to have a good rest at home these days."
"But I'm not willing to let such a despicable concubine be tricked..." Shen Xiang gritted his teeth in anger, and a light of hatred flashed in his eyes.
A thought flashed through her mind and she said directly: "Since grandma wants to please the regent, she might as well send Zhu Wuyou's sedan to the regent's house overnight."
If she likes to stand out so much, then Zhu Wuyou can become a lowly, nameless concubine!
When these words came out, Zhu Di denied it directly, "After all, she is also a female member of the Zhu family. It is impossible to go in like this without any status or status."
