"Zhaocai was almost beaten to death. As the master, I can't just ignore it. I'm going to teach those blind killers a lesson. Sister, do you want to come with me?"
Duan Tingfang's usually arrogant face suddenly showed an expression as if he had seen a ghost, and his eyes almost popped out. Duan Xinqi was also very surprised, but she was more concerned about the cat she had raised, so she quickly asked, "How is Zhaocai now?"
"I asked a doctor to come and see him. He is safe, but he is dying."
After Su Nuannuan finished speaking, she saw the second girl's face flushed, she clenched her fists, tears welled up in her eyes, and she choked up and said, "They are too bullying. On that day, the two cats were fighting, and it was the second sister-in-law's cat that provoked Zhaocai. As a result, the second sister-in-law's people brought a few old women to block our door. Fortunately, Zhaocai was smart and was able to escape from the encirclement. As a result, they have come until now and still refuse to give in. This... This is really too bullying."
"Isn't it? Even I am not taken seriously, let alone my younger sister that day?" Su Nuannuan said, and she showed the spirit of bravely rushing into the kitchen, rolled up her sleeves and said: "Let's go. If you like, come with me. If you don't like, just stay at home and take care of Zhaocai."
"I'll go with my sister-in-law." Duan Xinqi gritted her teeth and followed resolutely. The little girl was not stupid. She and her son had always been invisible in the mansion. Besides her sister-in-law, no one had ever treated them like this. If she didn't follow her sister-in-law closely, would she be ungrateful? What's more, she also wanted to vent her anger for Zhaocai.
"Sister, are you crazy?" Master Duan San grabbed his sister and stopped her from playing with Su Nuannuan, but he heard Duan Xinqi say: "I am crazy for once, so what? Before I was not crazy, my life was so miserable. Now I am crazy with my sister-in-law. It is worth living in this life. You are a man, it is not good for you to get involved in these things. Stay here and wait for your brother to come back." "After saying that, she shook off her brother's hand, ran a few steps, and followed behind Su Nuannuan.
Master Duan San was helpless as he watched his familiar sister suddenly change her demeanor. She was kidnapped by Su Nuannuan to be her helper. He wanted to go forward and take care of her. But he was a man. He really shouldn't get involved in these women's fights. Helpless Master Duan San walked around in the yard like a trapped beast. He refused to go into the house for tea even when Cong'erhua'er invited him to. Suddenly, he saw Duan Tingxuan's figure outside the gate, and he felt like he saw a savior. He threw away all his pride and ran up to her and shouted, "Brother, go check on the eldest sister-in-law. She went to the second sister-in-law's yard to make a noise, and brought the second sister with her. You should think of a way to stop her."
"Old... Third?"
Even though the young marquis was always smart, he was a little confused when he saw his anxious third brother: Is this really his third brother? The lonely guy who looked at everyone as if they owed him 10,000 silver coins? It seemed that he hadn't seen this younger brother for more than half a year. Why did his temperament suddenly become so human?
Duan Tingfang then realized that he was too flustered and accidentally dropped his usual cold and arrogant mask, and his handsome face suddenly turned red. Fortunately, Duan Tingxuan did not stare at him for long, but raised his head and asked Cong Erhuaer who came out of the room: "What's going on?"
Cong'er and Hua'er quickly recounted the incident. Duan Tingxuan's lazy and smiling face gradually turned pale, and he walked into the house without saying a word. After looking at Zhaocai's injuries, he stood up and thought for a while. Fang asked Cong'er, "When did the old woman who brought the news come?"
Hey, hey, hey, big brother, you got the point wrong, didn't you?
Duan Tingye, who had been struggling outside for a while but finally followed in out of concern, heard these words as soon as he entered the door and almost tripped over the threshold. He heard Cong'er say that it was less than half an hour after grandma came back. Duan Tingxuan nodded and said calmly, "The Lu family still knows the rules."
This... what does this mean? The Lu family still knows the rules? Is it that if the messenger arrives too late, Aunt Lu will be charged with the crime of disrespecting the wife of the prince? You are a prince, are you really going to stand up for your wife for a cat? Where is your dignity? Where is your status?
Mr. Duan Sanye's eyes continued to widen, and it was a little painful. Suddenly, he heard Duan Tingxuan ask Cong'er again: "How many people did your grandmother bring to the second room?"
"There were only Sister Honglian, Sister Xiangyun and Madam Zou. Later, when the second young lady arrived, they went together." Cong'er answered in a low voice timidly: such a fierce commotion was just for a cat. At that time, she thought grandma was so majestic, but now facing the master, she regained her rationality and realized that grandma's behavior was really inappropriate.
Sure enough, Duan Tingxuan frowned, and Duan Tingfang on the side also breathed a sigh of relief: Fortunately, fortunately, my brother is the prince after all, and his thoughts are normal. He also knows that it is inappropriate for my sister-in-law to make such a fuss over a cat.
"Siping." Duan Tingxuan turned around and told the servant outside the door, "Take two servants and go to the second room to check the situation. Nuannuan doesn't bring many people with her, so don't let her suffer any loss."
With a "thump", the always cold and aloof Duan Sanye knelt down along the door frame: He was so naive, and thought that the eldest brother wanted Siping to persuade the eldest sister-in-law to come back, but it turned out that this man felt that the eldest sister-in-law had too few people with her and was afraid that she would suffer. Okay, everyone in the mansion knows that you love your wife now, but...but do you have to spoil her so madly? Are you afraid that the woman will not rebel?
Siping probably couldn't stand it any longer, and muttered, "Master, I'm already breaking the rules by coming here. If I bring someone to the second room again, the old lady will punish me according to the family rules. Master, if you really care about the eldest grandmother, why don't you go there in person? You're the prince, and who would dare to act rashly if you're there?"
"Nonsense, you also know that I am the prince? How can I still have the face to interfere in the fight between two women? Stop talking nonsense, just go if I ask you to go, and if you go, you represent my opinion. If the second wife is sensible, she will not dare to be presumptuous. As for the old lady, I will protect you, what are you afraid of? Even if I can't protect you, don't you still have your grandmother? The old lady has been talking about the eggplant box for a long time. It happened that when I entered the door, I saw something delivered from the farm, and there were freshly picked eggplants. When the time comes, let your grandmother feed the old lady two eggplant boxes. What's the big deal about this little sin?"
Uncle Duan San was about to get up, but when he heard this, he sat down again: He didn't know how to describe this eldest brother, he was so cunning, no wonder the second brother was always bullied by him. Although the second brother was not a good guy either, and it was all his own fault, but at this moment, why did he feel so sympathetic towards the second brother?
Siping finally obeyed the order and left. Duan Tingxuan turned around and saw Duan Tingye still sitting by the door. He didn't look like a nobleman at all. He was very unhappy and was about to scold him. Suddenly, he remembered that Su Nuannuan had said that this third brother was sensitive and inferior, and he should be given more kind words of encouragement. So he quickly swallowed the words of scolding and coughed lightly, saying, "Third brother, it's rare for you to come here. Why are you sitting by the door? Come and sit on the chair. It's more comfortable than by the door. Hua'er, go and make a pot of tea. I'll make the Dahongpao that I brought back the other day. By the way, check the kitchen to see if there are any snacks newly made by your grandmother. I happen to be hungry too. Well, how are you doing in the school recently? Is the teacher's class going well?"
Not to mention that Master Duan was almost petrified by his eldest brother's "earnestly teaching his good brother" look. Su Nuannuan, with the second daughter Honglian, Xiangyun and Zou Pozi, came to the second room in a mighty procession. There were countless people following behind them, but she seemed to be unaware of it. She rushed to the door of the second room and saw a maid coming out. She said coldly: "Go and tell the second lady that I came to her today to ask for a few people."
The girl wanted to say something with a smile, but when she saw Su Nuannuan's stepmother's face, she immediately knew that it was better for her not to get involved in the fight between the two masters, so she went back to report obediently. Soon, Shi came out with a smile on her face, and before she even reached the door, she shouted, "Oh my, what happened today? You brought your sister-in-law here? Come in quickly, our master happened to have found some very good Da Hong Pao yesterday, I'll ask them to brew a pot so that your sister-in-law can have a taste too."
"Da Hong Pao, our master brought back two packs from the palace the other day, saying it was a rare treasure. I drank it twice, and it just tasted like tea." Su Nuannuan lowered her eyelids and said calmly: Haha! Comparing precious things with me? You deserve to be humiliated. No matter how wide-ranging and rich Mr. Duan is, can he compare with Duan Tingxuan, the emperor's favorite?
Sure enough, Shi's smile froze, but she soon smiled again and said, "Yes, it was me who was rude. I should have thought about my eldest brother's status and what good things he could not get. Anyway, since my sister-in-law is here, there is no reason for her to stand there. Come in and talk with me..."
"No need. I didn't come here today to have tea with you. My cat was beaten half to death. I was so distressed that I cried. It sounds ridiculous, but you must understand my feelings. Your Persian cat was just bitten by Zhaocai that day, but I heard that you sent people to block Aunt Lin's door and shouted that you wanted to beat Zhaocai to death. Today, my Zhaocai is much more miserable than your cat. With you protecting your pet, don't you think I, as the owner, have to seek justice for the cat? Otherwise, how can I live in this mansion? Right?"
Shi Yurou never thought that Su Nuannuan would actually mobilize a large number of people for a cat. The most incredible thing was that she actually said this in front of everyone, and she didn't seem to care what would happen if the old ladies heard this? This... this is not right, it shouldn't be like this, house fighting is not like this, you can't compare me to blocking Aunt Lin's door, who is Aunt Lin? The housekeepers in this mansion don't like to deal with her. But I'm different, who am I? I'm a legitimate second wife. Except for Xu Ranyun, the rest of the housekeeper power is in my hands. I'm also a master who can be counted in this mansion. Even if you want to seek justice for your cat, you have to have another excuse to come to me, right? Just because the cat was beaten, you come to me, so simple and rude... I haven't played it before, I'm not used to it.
