As soon as these words were spoken, the whole yard fell silent.
The atmosphere was surprisingly awkward.
The people from the second house stood aside and watched the fun. They neither criticized the Bai family for being harsh on the younger generation, nor did they speak up for Chen Zhizhou and Gu Qing.
It would be difficult for Chen's father and mother to defend him too much in front of so many relatives.
Father Chen said with dignity: "Zhou'er, the room on the second floor on the left is also good, why don't you two stay there."
This was originally the house arranged for Chen's father and mother. Now, because of Bai's words, they are going to offend Chen Zhizhou and Gu Qing and wrong the two old people in the first house?
Chen Zhizhou was not a soft persimmon to be bullied. He looked around coldly and did not directly answer Chen's father's words.
He lowered his head and looked at Gu Qing. Neither of them wanted to let the Bai family take advantage of this.
"If I remember correctly, Taizu said before he died that all his things would be left to my eldest son. Since Taizu has asked, I can live here if I want!"
Chen Zhizhou looked at Bai and drank without any respect or politeness.
In the past, he could have turned a blind eye, but recently he heard that Bai often made trouble for Gu Qing, and he had long wanted to teach this gossipy woman a lesson!
Bai was startled and staggered two steps, almost losing her balance. She looked at her son for help.
Chen Tang turned his eyes away, pretending he saw nothing.
He would never go against Chen Zhizhou for his mother. Chen Zhizhou was a man known for his boldness.
In order to get his current position, he was stabbed three times by villains while protecting the third prince on a trip. He had to face life and death several times before he was rescued.
Otherwise, why have the second and third wives not dared to take action against the first wife for so many years?
With the personalities of Chen Zhizhou's parents, they are so soft-hearted that they can't hold on to their current position at all.
If it weren't for Chen Zhizhou, the eldest wife would have fallen into an unknown state long ago.
Bai Shi was isolated and helpless, but unwilling to be ridiculed by others, so she could only turn her spearhead towards Gu Qing: "I'm not saying anything bad about you, but since you've come to our Chen family to be a daughter-in-law, you should behave like a daughter-in-law. Otherwise, others will think we've married an ancestor!"
She deliberately raised her voice, causing the neighbors who were watching the fun at the door and eavesdropping to rush over.
Chen Zhizhou's face was cold and chilly, and he exuded a chill from his whole body. He wished he could skin her alive.
Chen's father and mother also looked unhappy.
Why is the Bai family doing this for no reason? Do they want to make the Chen family a laughing stock?
A hint of sarcasm flashed in Gu Qing's eyes, and she immediately bowed to Chen's father and mother and said, "Dad and Mom, since Third Aunt doesn't like me, then we won't live here. I'm afraid Third Aunt wants to live here herself. If that's the case, my husband and I are willing to give it to the elders."
Chen Zhizhou looked down at her, held her hand tightly, and suddenly a smile appeared on his face.
He really married a little fox.
Gu Qing's words were sincere and heartfelt, but in fact they highlighted the scene of an elder making things difficult for a younger one. If others heard it, they would only blame the Bai family for being ignorant.
Bai Shi understood the meaning behind her words and immediately refused: "No, when did I ever say I wanted to live in this house?"
"I mean, this house..."
"Whatever you say! If Third Aunt doesn't want to live in the old house, you can go out and stay in an inn."
Chen Zhizhou's patience was completely worn out, and he immediately ordered Cuiping to go upstairs: "Go and pack up Madam's things. Madam and I will live in this room."
Hearing this, the second wife was too lazy to watch the fun and felt very unhappy.
I originally thought that Bai would come up with something new this time, but it turned out that she just lost her temper again.
But Chen Zhizhou has an even tougher temper!
Chen's father and mother did not give Bai a good face this time.
After all, she was the one who started the trouble. She has caused enough trouble along the way. If she had known this would happen, she should have asked everyone in the third room to stay at home and reflect on themselves.
Gu Qing originally thought that intrigue and verbal battles were inevitable in the inner courtyard.
He had to consider the Chen family's reputation while not ruining his own interests, which required a lot of talking and thinking.
Unexpectedly, Chen Zhizhou's domineering method actually saves time and effort.
Anyway, the third branch can't cause any trouble now, so they don't need to be too nice to the Bai family.
In front of Bai, Chen Zhizhou took Gu Qing's hand and went straight into the room on the east side of the second floor. The rest of the people also dispersed.
The two people in the third room looked pale and pale respectively.
Mrs. Bai was so angry that her hands were shaking and her old face turned red.
Coming to his senses, he glared at Chen Tang, grabbed his arm and hit him, scolding him, "You unfilial son! Why didn't you help your mother just now!"
"You just watched your mother being bullied by them! You useless thing!"
Bai lowered her voice, crying and cursing, but she was worried that the people outside the door would hear her and cause gossip, so she pulled Chen Tang into the house with force.
Chen Tang was upset. Bai said she was his mother, but he had never heard her say a good word about him since he was a child.
In her mouth, I am either a waste or a rebellious son, saying that I am not as good as others and will definitely have no future.
Not only that, she was born with a bad temper. Not only did she mock her father, she also often beat and scolded herself.
Chen Tang had endured for years, but the pain in his body now made him furious. He brushed Bai away and shouted, "I'm a waste! I'm a rebellious son! Then I will go home and stay out of your sight."
"Just stay by yourself!"
After saying this, he turned around and left, taking the maid with him.
Bai fell to the ground, crying bitterly, and pushed all her hatred onto Chen Zhizhou, Gu Qing, and even the Chen family.
If she hadn't married Chen Laosan, how could she have lived such a miserable life? !
Thinking back to when she was a wealthy businessman in Jiangnan, even if she was not the legitimate daughter, she could marry a rich man or an official in the future, instead of a loser like him.
She hated! She hated everyone who made her miserable for the rest of her life!
Upstairs, Gu Qing stood by the window. She had a graceful ladylike figure, and the light softened her profile, making her as eye-catching as a goddess.
Chen Zhizhou ordered people to pack up their things and sat on the couch to look at her carefully. He saw that Gu Qing sometimes smiled and sometimes frowned, and her expression was quite interesting.
"why are you laughing?"
Gu Qing turned around and happened to see Chen Zhizhou looking at him with his chin supported, a teasing and curious smile on his face.
Chen Zhizhou stretched out his hand to her, motioning her to come into his arms.
When the person took two steps closer, he pulled her forward, put one arm around her waist, and roamed around with the other hand dishonestly.
Gu Qing thought he wanted to break the rules, and immediately said seriously: "No!"
"Why are you so excited? Am I such an unruly person?" Chen Zhizhou pretended to be aggrieved. This was the second time Gu Qing had rejected him harshly.
The corners of Gu Qing's mouth twitched.
Don’t you have any idea whether you abide by the rules or not?
Seeing her serious expression, Chen Zhizhou was so adorable that he couldn't help but give her a kiss: "I just laughed. I really married a little fox."
"You were at the window, observing the third room?"
Gu Qing nodded, unable to deny it.
She was originally curious about why Chen Zhizhou insisted on living in this room, and the beautiful scenery and low humidity were just excuses.
As long as you open the window of this room, you can see what is happening in all the other rooms.
In other words, everyone's actions are in their eyes.
