When they arrived at Zhai's house, Zhai's father respectfully asked Shangguan Qingyue to get off the carriage, and was also very kind to Shangguan Chengjing, which made Shangguan Chengjing think that Zhai Jingxuan was prejudiced against her family, because her father obviously loved her very much!
Look at this bedroom and its furnishings, it is better than the whole house, and it doesn't look like he is unfavored at all. Zhai Jingyu is also considerate and vacated her own bedroom for Shangguan Qingyue to live in. However, Shangguan Chengjing was still worried about Shangguan Qingyue living away from home, even with two servants watching over him, so he suggested that Shangguan Qingyue squeeze in with him.
Father Zhai was furious, "How can the young lady live with you?!"
After he finished speaking, he seemed to realize that his tone was wrong and quickly softened his voice. However, he was not speaking to Shangguan Chengjing, but to Shangguan Qingyue. "Young lady, although my humble home is small and humble, I cannot neglect you. My daughter Jingyu's bedroom is next to Xuan'er's. You can stay there. If you need to find Xuan'er, it will be convenient."
This arrangement was indeed very appropriate. Shangguan Chengjing thought about it and reluctantly agreed. Madam Zhai came over with a smile and wanted to pick up Shangguan Qingyue, but Heng Chen and Heng Ye jumped out and blocked her way. She was not embarrassed at all, "Our little lady is so cute and lovely. My lord, I look a bit like Jingyu when she was a child! Is it some kind of fate?"
Father Zhai sanctimoniously scolded, "Nonsense! How can Jingyu be compared with the young lady?"
Zhai Jingyu said gracefully, "Mother, look at what you said. The young lady is a princess. You are really insulting her by saying that."
Shangguan Qingyue pouted, "Yes, yes! How am I like Zhai Jingyu? That's the most vicious thing I've ever heard. So wicked..."
【Unhappy spicy!!】
"Where is the bedroom? I'm tired. I want to sleep for a while!"
"Miss, let me take you to the bedroom!" Zhai Jingyu volunteered.
“Woof woof woof!”
The four people and four dogs went to the next room. Zhai Jingyu wanted to follow them in, but Shangguan Qingyue suddenly turned around, smiling, looking particularly adorable, and said, "Sister Jingyu, can you help Yue'er feed Doudou?"
Zhai Jingyu was stunned for a moment. What was Doudou? Then she realized it was a dog! The little brat was originally mute, and now that he can speak, he can't speak clearly. What a lucky family!
Let her feed the dog?
Zhai Jingyu looked at the four dogs on the ground calmly, with a hint of disgust in her eyes.
It’s fine that her mother asked her to take good care of the little mute, but the little mute actually asked her to feed the dog?
Forget it, when she successfully marries into the Duke's Mansion and becomes the Crown Prince's Consort in the future, she will be her sister-in-law. Then she can torture this little mute however she wants!
It would be best... since she loves dogs so much, I'd better marry her to a dog dealer when she grows up!
The more Zhai Jingyu thought about it, the happier she became, and a smile broke out on her face.
She simply agreed, "Of course!"
"My Doudou is a big eater, especially this!" Shangguan Qingyue was a little worried and pointed at the Taotie on the ground.
Taotie let out a howl.
"Don't let them starve!"
Zhai Jingyu agreed very readily. How much can a few dogs eat?
Not to mention some ordinary dry food, how much money can she spend if she feeds raw meat every meal?
Zhai Jingyu's smile widened. "Don't worry, young lady. I will definitely feed your dog well. Is beef and mutton every meal okay?"
Shangguan Qingyue was a little embarrassed, "Isn't it too expensive?"
Zhai Jingyu was stunned, thinking that the princess's own daughter was so poor that she even felt sorry for a little bit of beef and mutton?
"Of course not!"
Shangguan Qingyue's eyes rolled mischievously. "How about I give you some silver? I heard that Master Zhai's annual salary is only 500 taels. I'm just staying here temporarily. How can I spend all of Master Zhai's money?"
Zhai Jingyu became more and more arrogant. "What are you talking about, young lady? You are an honored guest of the Zhai Mansion. Your father is already welcoming you, so how can you let you spend money?"
"But...if people outside knew about this, they would say Yue'er is ignorant..."
Zhai Jingyu pondered for a long while, then hardened her heart and said, "How about this? I've saved some money, and I'll pay for the dog's feeding from it! This way, the young lady's reputation won't be affected!"
Shangguan Qingyue stepped forward and looked up at Zhai Jingyu with a bright look in her eyes. "Sister Jingyu, is this okay?"
Seeing this, Zhai Jingyu felt even more proud. Children are so easy to fool!
That ugly guy must have deceived Shangguan Qingyue's heart, which is why everyone in the princess's mansion looks up to him!
She immediately said, "Young lady, don't worry!"
Shangguan Qingyue narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Sister Jingyu, you are so hot! You are even better to Yue'er than Sister Jingxuan!"
As he spoke, Shangguan Qingyue secretly cast a glance at the four dogs on the ground.
The four dogs understood instantly, "Woof woof woof!"
Shangguan Qingyue turned around and walked away, his back ruthless and cold. "I will definitely talk to mother about this when I get back!"
【Say you are the biggest idiot in the world! 】
Zhai Jingyu looked at Shangguan Qingyue's back with satisfaction and pride, and after a while she said to the four dogs on the ground, "Come with me!"
"Woof woof woof! (Your dad is here)"
…
As soon as Shangguan Qingyue left, only Shangguan Chengjing, Zhai's father and Mrs. Zhai were left. Shangguan Chengjing was about to greet them when he saw the corners of Zhai's and Mrs. Zhai's mouths drop instantly, and they looked at him with extreme disgust.
Father Zhai shouted coldly, "You still remember to come back? You've been missing for so many days, and you didn't come home to report that you're safe. Instead, you stayed in the princess's mansion. You're really a disgrace to the Zhai family!"
Madam Zhai said sarcastically, "Master, she's climbed up the social ladder now, how could she even take you seriously? Look, now she doesn't even call me dad, let alone greet me. I think you'd better not take it so seriously, lest she get into trouble with you, her own father, once she gains power!"
"How dare she!" Father Zhai glared at Shangguan Chengjing. "Even if she flies to the sky, she's still my daughter! What I say is final! Get down on your knees!"
Shangguan Chengjing was bewildered. After a while, he came to his senses and his expression was extremely complicated.
He would not kneel, he said calmly, "I didn't do anything wrong, why should I kneel?"
Madam Zhai hid behind Father Zhai and provoked, "Look, he doesn't listen to you anymore!"
Father Zhai was furious and immediately raised his hand to slap Shangguan Chengjing in the face. Shangguan Chengjing was a skilled fighter. Although his body was no longer his own, his acumen was still there. He immediately turned his head, his brows furrowed, and subconsciously reached out to grab Father Zhai's arm and throw him back...
Over-the-shoulder throw.
The dull thud of Zhai's father landing startled everyone present.
After recovering from her shock, Madam Zhai pointed at Shangguan Chengjing and cursed, "Fine, fine, you unfilial daughter! Damn it! How dare you hit your own father!"
"I..." Shangguan Chengjing closed his eyes in regret. Why did he take action?
Beating my own father is a heinous crime... What should I do?
Father Zhai scrambled to his feet, staring at Shangguan Chengjing with a look that was poisoned, devoid of any paternal love. He pointed at him, his voice trembling with anger, "Outrageous! Outrageous! Come, I'm going to drown this rebellious girl in a pond as a warning to all!"
