【Father-in-law Chapter 10】Don't eat loss

After breakfast, Chu Jiao and Shen Zhongxing left together.

She wanted to send Shen Zhongxing back to Tingsong Courtyard. After all, they were husband and wife, and it was right for her to care about her husband. But as soon as she entered the hanging flower door of the third room, she saw the yellow- clothed maid waiting eagerly.

She smiled and did not move forward. Instead, she whispered a few words to Shen Zhongxing, and then walked towards her own courtyard in the young man's astonished eyes.

She was not suitable for the bright light bulb.

Behind her, the yellow-clothed maid ran forward and carefully looked at her young master.

"Master, are you okay? Are you feeling unwell?"

Shen Zhongxing shook his head gently, "Don't worry. I'm fine, Awan."

"Just now, what did the young mistress say to you?" Awan had a lovely round face, but at the moment she was a little sad, "Ah, I'm sorry, Master. Awan overstepped the line."

"You, you just like to have wild thoughts," Shen Zhongxing let her push him into the house, with a bitter smile on his face, "This marriage was arranged by our grandmother, and I have no power to change it. I'm sorry for you."

"No, Master, don't say that! As long as Awan can be by your side, that's enough!" the girl in yellow said hurriedly, her tone full of sincerity.

"I know that you are the only one who cares about me the most in this world," Shen Zhongxing looked at Manyuan Xiaose and coughed twice, "She just told me that she doesn't want this marriage and she has someone she loves. So she doesn't intend to disturb you and me and told me not to worry. She also told me that if you are willing, you can make the decision for me and take you as my concubine..."

"Ah?" The yellow-clothed girl's pretty face slowly turned red after hearing this, and she stamped her feet, "Oh, what nonsense are you talking about, Madam? What, what is willing or not..."

"Cough... hehe... let's go, push me back to the room..."

Behind the two of them, Shen Zhen, who was walking with his hands folded, was walking towards the study with his eyes downcast.

Chu Jiao slowly returned to the main courtyard and took a nap.

She had a nanny by her side, who had been loyal to the original owner since she was a child. Chu Jiao was lazy, so she handed over all the interpersonal affairs in the yard to Grandma Wang. Grandma Wang was experienced and rearranged the scattered servants in the yard in the morning.

Chu Jiao knew that most of the servants in the yard were sent in by the first and second houses to gather information. She didn't like her privacy being peeped into, so she asked Grandma Wang to send her to the third-class servant. Not long after, she found some faults and replaced them with new slaves bought with her own money.

This is a later story, so I won't go into it for now.

After waking up, it was already afternoon.

Chu Jiao was a little hungry, so she asked Cui Huan to get some food. Unexpectedly, after waiting for a long time, Cui Huan returned empty-handed with tears in her eyes.

"Wuwu! Madam, they, they are too much!"

Cui Huan came back angrily. After a closer look, she found that her right cheek was still a little red and swollen.

"What's wrong? Who bullied you?"

Chu Jiao looked at her little maid's face distressedly. Oh, such a beautiful little beauty, but now her face is disfigured.

"Woo woo! I went to the kitchen and said I would let the Third Madam make some snacks, but the cooks didn't even look at me. They were playing bridge and said they were making snacks for the Second Madam and didn't have time," Lu Huan wiped her tears. "I said I was making snacks for you, but before I even touched the stove, one of them slapped me in the face and said I ruined her snacks. She was even threatening to take me to the Second Madam to complain!"

"I was so angry that I broke away from her and came back!"

"Okay, stop crying. What a shame!" Chu Jiao wiped her tears for her. "Silly girl, you are really helping others to become more ambitious but destroying your own prestige."

"Let's go," she put down the boring storybook in her hand, "I will go and ask for it myself. I want to see if they dare to beat me."

"And, Hongxiu," Chu Jiao called another maid and whispered something in her ear. When Hongxiu nodded and left, she and Lu Huan walked slowly towards the kitchen.

"Lu Huan, since you are my person, remember one thing," Chu Jiao said faintly, "I will eat anything, but... I will not eat losses."
