She was just saying that Uncle Yang meant to point out that the scholar wanted to see her. Zhizhi was in no mood to deal with these matters. She said directly,
"There are many people coming to the mansion today, let them go together."
Uncle Yang took the order and left.
Hu Cheng's funeral lasted for a full month. Although the two did not have a wedding night, Zhizhi did not dislike him.
After all, she is the one who benefits.
Uncle Yang was very capable and he quickly managed all the affairs of the Hu Mansion in an orderly manner without any chaos.
This day.
He came to the backyard to report to Zhizhi,
"The master's family wants to see you."
Zhizhi was surprised. If Uncle Yang hadn’t said that, she would have almost forgotten that Hu Cheng had a family!
He didn't contact anyone when their family died, and only showed up after the funeral was over.
She refused.
Unexpectedly, the Hu family couple framed her with slanderous words and shouted loudly at the door of the Hu residence.
"I've known for a long time that you, a woman, are always looking for more. You just got married to my daughter Cheng'er, and you can't wait to hook up with outsiders."
"Everyone, listen up! This young widow in this mansion is a slut who flirts with other men. Seeing that my Cheng'er is gone, she wants to find another man!"
Zhizhi was sitting at home when something bad happened.
She was immediately enraged when she heard this and hurried to the door with her servants.
"Which dog is barking?"
The Hu couple glared at each other, their hands on their hips, and said, "What are you talking about, you bitch? Get out of this house right now. Is there a place for you here? Cheng'er is my eldest son. When he dies, all the property will go to Heng'er and Yan'er. If you tell the truth, then ask to leave, otherwise don't blame me for divorcing you!"
Zhizhi understood that they were here to seize the family property.
She glanced at the Hu couple. All the servants in the Hu mansion stood in front of Zhizhi, not letting the two get close to Zhizhi at all.
Others watch and have their own thoughts in their hearts.
"You're saying all this just to take over the master's inheritance, Uncle Yang!" she shouted.
Uncle Yang squeezed in front of her.
Zhizhi said loudly,
"When the master was alive, he said his parents had completely severed all ties with him. Since these two people never paid tribute to him at the funeral hall, who can say for sure whether they are the master's biological parents?"
"Go report this letter to the authorities and report that someone, greedy for money, is bullying widows and seizing other people's property!"
Zhizhi handed the book of Jue Yi to Uncle Yang.
She found this out of the study. Zhizhi never expected that Hu Cheng would set up his own business and cut off all ties with the entire Hu family.
The Hu couple were visibly panicked.
They were clamoring to show Zhizhi a good look, but they kept backing away.
"You, you, you bitch, you're just bluffing. Do you think we're afraid of you?!"
The two of them shouted.
Then he quickly hid in the crowd and ran away in a hurry, as if he was afraid of being arrested by the government.
Zhizhi sneered,
Real food!
How dare you scold her like this?!
Do you really think she is easy to bully?
·
After the incident with the Hu couple, Uncle Yang was even more devoted to Zhizhi.
This day.
He suddenly came in and announced that a guest wanted to see Zhizhi.
Zhizhi hesitated.
"To see me?"
Half a month has passed since Hu Cheng’s funeral.
Who would want to see her at this time?
She pondered for a while, then said,
"Send him over."
After a while, Uncle Yang brought the person over.
He was tall and slender, and Zhizhi couldn't see his face clearly through the screen. A clear voice came slowly, and Zhizhi's eyebrows moved slightly.
"Brother Hu and I hit it off right away. He entrusted me with an important matter before he passed away, and I'd like to discuss it with my wife alone."
Uncle Yang was a little angry.
"You!"
Zhizhi asks him to step back.
Soon, there were only two people left in the house.
The room was silent.
Zhizhi saw that the man walked slowly but rhythmically, step by step around the screen and came in front of Zhizhi.
She raised her eyes and said,
“It’s you, Shen Jingzhi.”
Originally, Hu Cheng was dead, so Zhizhi began to think about how to seduce Shen Jingzhi.
Finally he brought it to the door himself.
Zhizhi's thoughts began to stir.
Shen Jingzhi, contrary to his usual behavior, knelt on the ground and slowly crawled on his knees in an extremely humble manner.
He was wearing a green auspicious cloud robe, and his hakama had several folds on the ground.
The dark-black belt with gold edges became slightly loose due to his movements.
Shen Jingzhi moved to Zhizhi's feet without looking away, his eyes full of long-hidden ambition.
"...Ma'am, you must be very lonely after he left."
he?
who is he?
Zhizhi was so frightened by him that she didn't have time to think about it.
His slender fingers held her tightly, his fingertips clenched, veins bulging slightly. His round-necked robe vibrated and fluttered at his sudden movement, and for a moment he lowered his head in silence.
Zhizhi looked at him.
"you--"
Zhizhi felt confused.
My head was confused and the pain became worse due to the stimulation.
The annoying thing is that he doesn't stop explaining slowly and gently,
"Brother Hu has entrusted you to me, Madam..."
"Now that he's gone, don't be sad. I'll take good care of you for him... okay."
Zhizhi shook her favorite butterfly hairpin.
Hearing the shouts from inside the house, the maid came in to serve tea to the lady.
"The guest is thirsty, give him more."
The lady sitting in the upper seat gave such instructions. Except for a pearl hairpin on her bun that seemed to be very heavy and was taken off, there was nothing unusual.
The guest, who was bending down to adjust his collar, thanked the maid with a hoarse voice and a somewhat unsteady breath.
"I dare not." The maid retreated outside the house.
No one dared to eavesdrop on what was being said inside.
The servants only knew that the guest, who was personally received by Mrs. Hu, left after a long conversation.
