Jiang Zhaorong glanced at Song Shiwei and frowned: "You're not well yet, what are you doing here?"
Song Shiwei's expectant expression paused, and his eyes were full of vulnerability.
For so many days, Jiang Zhaorong had not even looked at her. The maids serving in his room were all flatterers. When they saw that he had fallen out of favor and that he was injured these days, they did not serve him with all their heart.
No matter how reluctant she was, she had to regain Jiang Zhaorong's favor in this prime minister's mansion.
"Thank you for your concern, father. Shi Wei just feels better now and can get out of bed and walk around. I thought it was unfilial that I hadn't come to pay my respects to grandma for so many days, so I came here."
She stood up and saluted: "Since father and sister Zhiyu are here, and grandmother has someone to talk to, Shi Wei will take her leave now."
These few words made Jiang Zhaorong's eyes full of guilt.
"Ahem... Your father is thinking that you are not well yet and should rest well. You are filial and your mother likes you, so please stay a little longer."
Song Shiwei bowed slightly, with a graceful demeanor: "Thank you, father."
She sat down by herself, holding the back of the chair, and the maid next to her seemed not to notice.
Jiang Zhaorong looked worried: "How do you serve? Don't you know how to help the young lady sit down?"
Song Shiwei coughed weakly: "It's okay, father, I can do it myself."
Jiang Zhaorong's eyes were filled with a mixture of regret and pity. Thinking of the current servants being arranged by Xu Youran, he suspected that she had deliberately stuffed the evil servant into Shi Wei's yard in order to take revenge on the old lady.
I suddenly felt a little disgusted with Xu Youran.
Jiang Zhiyu, who watched the whole process, said: "..."
[Oh, this is advanced. Is this what a house fight is? ]
[First, she pretended to be weak to gain his affection, then she deliberately brought a maid with an eye disease to serve her, and acted like a wicked servant bullying her master in front of others, making her father think that her mother did it on purpose, and even gaining some guilt. What a master!]
[Isn’t this scumbag dad of mine really going to believe this?]
Jiang Zhaorong: “…”
He is not, he didn't, don't talk nonsense.
I'm just a little bit shaken!
Jiang Zhaorong stared at the maid and saw that her eyes were dull. She even spilled the tea on the table.
Jiang Zhaorong took a deep breath and clenched his teeth.
Song Shiwei didn't know what was going on, and tears welled up in her eyes, just like Mrs. Du.
"Since you have an eye disease, why do you keep it with you? Don't you have anyone to take care of you in your house?!"
He was angry and spoke harshly, which frightened the weak-looking Song Shiwei so much that she accidentally broke the teacup. The maid with eye problems tried to clean it up in a hurry, but she caught something and overturned the whole table, which shattered into pieces on the floor with a clanging sound.
Song Shiwei was unable to dodge and the tea leaves spilled onto her dress, making her look extremely embarrassed.
Jiang Zhaorong turned his head and looked at the maids standing there in a daze, and shouted angrily, "What are you standing there for?! Why don't you pack up quickly?!"
The maids finally reacted and quickly cleaned up.
Seeing this, the old lady suddenly felt unhappy. "Why are you showing off here? It's just a mistake. Is it worth getting angry about?"
"Why are you pretending? You clearly wanted to curse just now, but my dad got there first."
Jiang Zhaorong smiled and said, "My son just saw that these people were clumsy and unfit to serve in the house. They relied on the master's favor and forgot their status. They really need to be taught a lesson. Don't you agree, mother?"
After dealing with Jiang Jianjin, Jiang Zhaorong understood that some people are biased.
No matter how hard you try, you can't win her favor.
In this case, it would be better to let them all maintain a sense of awe and fear, so that they dare not do anything weird.
This was what Zhiyu taught me when I was dealing with Jiang Jianjin. Very good, very useful!
[Awesome, that's a powerful statement. Two people giving warnings together. Dad has evolved!]
Song Shiwei tightened her grip on the hem of her skirt. The old lady's fingers trembled with anger, and suddenly two lines of tears fell.
"Okay, okay, you're grown up now and have your own ideas. I can't control you anymore."
She wiped her tears and brought up the past: "Back home, I, your mother, raised you all with great difficulty. I finally saw your eldest son become a general and you enter the court, but your second son, alone, has made no achievements. I was worried all day and all night and couldn't sleep."
Jiang Zhaorong's expression relaxed.
Seeing that he seemed to be softening, the old lady wiped away a few more tears and continued to sob: "Later, the eldest brother's body was brought back. Mother was heartbroken. After much difficulty, the second brother became an official, but then something happened again. He was framed by a villain. You ran around everywhere for your brother. Mother saw it with her own eyes and it hurt her heart."
"Mother said all this just because she hopes you can forgive the second brother for the sake of our deep brotherly love and take him and Brother Heng back home."
The old lady's face was filled with tears as she pointed at Jiang Zhiyu and said, "You have many children, but your second child only has one brother, Heng. He finally managed to get out of that remote and poor place. If he goes back now, it will take him a long time to come back. Please have some pity on them."
[She's using moral kidnapping like a shrew. Don't listen to this old woman's nonsense. She has a very dark heart!]
[She dared to say anything, relying on my father not knowing the plot. She had an affair years ago and was caught red-handed by my grandfather. My grandfather was kind and saw her crying so hard that he thought she was truly repentant, so he forgave her. But she never expected that she was pregnant with Jiang Jianjin!]
This news hit Jiang Zhaorong's ears like a bolt from the blue. No wonder she always preferred Jiang Jianjin to her elder brother and herself!
Jiang Zhaorong's eyes were red as he listened carefully to Jiang Zhiyu's inner thoughts.
"There are so many shameless people in the world! After learning she was pregnant, she and her adulterer murdered my grandfather. She also bribed someone to drug my uncle's wine, causing him to suffer an irregular heartbeat during the battle, causing him to fall off his horse, allowing the enemy to take advantage of the opportunity!"
So, is this the truth?
He clenched his fists under his sleeves, making a rattling sound...
His chest was churning, his shoulders were shaking, and he stared at the old lady with an eyes that seemed to want to eat her.
The old lady looked at him in horror, shrinking her neck, and Jiang Zhaorong's hand got closer and closer to her...
Jiang Zhiyu was at the door and couldn't see his expression clearly. She just thought he was going to be soft-hearted, so she quickly walked up to him.
[No, I have to take action now. If this scumbag dad really agrees, then won't I have to return the box of gold and silver treasures in my yard?!]
[You wish! I am a Pixiu, the kind that only takes in and never leaves!]
She took two steps forward, still thinking about the old lady drinking the boy's urine. She chose a safe distance and sat on the ground, wailing, "Oh! Old lady, you don't know, Second Uncle wants to kill my father. He has a two-meter-long machete, it's scary just to look at it!"
