Zhou Ruyu stood up, regardless of her own embarrassment, pointed at Shi Juncai, and angrily scolded: "Shi Juncai, you sold your wife for glory. Once something happens, you blame me for all the faults. You don't take any responsibility at all." Not a man at all!
If you still dare to dream about your eldest brother’s title, don’t even dream about it in your next life! "
"How dare you say that! I..."
Shi Juncai was furious again and suddenly raised his hand. Shi Baoyou was trembling all over, but he still stood firmly in front of Zhou Ruyu.
When Shi Juncai saw Shi Baoyou, he raised his hand to his head. He didn't hit her any more, and just scolded harshly: "You'er, get out of my way! I have to teach her a lesson today and let her know who is the right one." He is the head of the family!”
"Come on! How dare you, a coward like you, say that you are the head of the family? What have you done for this family? You can't even protect your own son and daughter. What qualifications do you have..."
Shi Baoyou was so anxious that he covered Zhou Ruyu's mouth and begged: "Mom, You'er is begging you, please stop talking, okay?"
Both Zhou Ruyu and Shi Juncai were firing on all cylinders and could fight again every minute, but as soon as Shi Baoyou's tears fell, the two parents started talking to each other again and stopped.
Shi Juncai coughed twice and changed the topic to a lighter topic, "You'er, don't listen to your mother's nonsense. Your father is capable! Don't worry, I am idle at home now, but soon, I will be reinstated to my official position soon." …
No, His Highness the Fourth Prince promised to give me a promotion! Soon you will also be the daughter-in-law of a fourth-grade official, and you will be even better in the future! Let those snobs who dared to pick on Shi Qingxue and look down on you cry to death! "
Although Shi Baoyou didn't feel that there was any difference between the daughter of a fourth-rank official and her now, she still echoed a few words in a flattering manner, making Shi Juncai very happy and laughing.
Seeing Shi Juncai's arrogant look, Zhou Ruyu couldn't help but feel angry, and began to say sarcastically: "Huh, it's not because of Zu Yin. Without the backing of the Shi family and my Wuyang Hou Mansion, how could His Highness the Fourth Highness be so fond of him?" You're such a softie!"
She kept saying "weak" and "cowardly", which even Shi Baoyou felt a little uncomfortable hearing.
What's more, Shi Juncai was already sensitive and irritable, and he was even more anxious and angry, so he raised his hand again.
"You still dare to hit me!" Zhou Ruyu not only did not hide, but straightened her chest and sneered at Shi Juncai, "If you hit me again, don't blame me for exposing all your dirty things!"
Shi Juncai narrowed his eyes dangerously and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Zhou Ruyu looked confident of winning, straightened her messy clothes, and then said slowly: "If you push me into a hurry, I will wipe out all the plans of you and my mother.
You will never be able to become Duke Shi in this life. I will definitely let everyone know that your mother was... "
"Shut up, shut up!" Shi Juncai shouted angrily, while desperately trying to cover Zhou Ruyu's mouth.
Zhou Ruyu turned around and shook off Shi Juncai's hand, with stern eyes and said word by word: "If you don't believe it, just give it a try!"
Shi Juncai pointed at Zhou Ruyu for a while, then loosened his fist and shook it. In the end, he didn't dare to attack Zhou Ruyu. He only said fiercely: "You will be cruel this time!"
After saying these words, he immediately threw up his sleeves and left Zhou Ruyu's room, going to the gentle land of other concubines.
Zhou Ruyu no longer cared, and just calmly ordered Shi Baoyou: "Go out and call the maid in, let me wash and change clothes."
"Yes." Shi Baoyou responded readily, but did not move.
She looked at Zhou Ruyu curiously, and after a long while, she asked hesitantly: "Mom, what did you just say about grandma?"
To be able to make Shi Juncai, who was so arrogant and arrogant, suddenly wilt. It is definitely not a small matter, and it is also related to whether Shi Juncai can inherit the title of Duke Shi in the future. This...
Shi Baoyou couldn't hide his curiosity.
However, Zhou Ruyu just patted the back of her hand and smiled intriguingly, "Buddha said: Don't say it, don't say it! Don't ask. As long as my mother is safe, she will definitely not let anything happen to you again. Then this secret It doesn’t matter whether you know it or not!”
Shi Baoyou pursed her lips in dissatisfaction, but she was a good daughter to her mother and did not continue to ask. She nodded obediently, "I understand. My daughter will go down and call the maid in for you."
Zhou Ruyu changed into new clothes and tidied up properly, but the scars left by the fight with Shi Juncai just now could not be covered for a while.
Shi Baoyou had no choice but to ask Dr. Qin for some good wound ointment to apply on Zhou Ruyu.
Fortunately, Zhou Ruyu is banned these days and doesn't have to go out to meet guests. Otherwise, who knows what the news will be like
"It's okay, don't be busy." Zhou Ruyu didn't care about the injuries on his face.
She took Shi Baoyou's hand, pulled him to sit next to her, and asked slowly: "Mom has never asked you before, you have been out of the house a lot recently, what have you been doing?"
"Ah!" Shi Baoyou's face suddenly turned red.
She lowered her head shyly and said solemnly: "No, it's nothing!"
How could Zhou Ruyu believe her lies? With a stern look on her face, she asked: "Tell me the truth. Are you going out to do bad things? Like your sister..."
When she thought that Shi Baoyou might be like Shi Baojin, who went out to have sex and got pregnant before marriage, Zhou Ruyu broke into a cold sweat and turned pale with fear.
Shi Baoyou quickly defended himself, "No, of course not."
"Then tell me quickly, what on earth did you do when you left the house?"
Shi Baoyou was forced to do nothing by Zhou Ruyu. After hesitating for a long time, he answered vaguely: "Yes, His Highness the Fourth Highness is looking for his daughter."
"Your Highness Fourth?"
Zhou Ruyu was stunned for a while, obviously not expecting the answer to be like this
Although she had once considered letting Shi Baoyou become the fourth imperial concubine, she was not without self-awareness. Mo Junhao was also an ambitious guy, so he might not be interested in Shi Baoyou's status.
As for letting Shi Baoyou be her concubine, she was really reluctant to do so, so she put the matter on hold.
Now that she heard that Shi Baoyou had contacted Mo Junhao by herself, one can imagine how complicated her mood was at this time.
Although Xu told the truth, Shi Baoyou did not hide anything, and continued to explain without even asking Zhou Ruyu: "The Fourth Highness has visited his daughter many times, always asking her about the sixth sister. He and the sixth sister grew up together as their childhood sweethearts. , and they were in love with each other, so he wanted to marry the sixth sister, but he didn't know what he did wrong, which made the sixth sister angry, and even ignored the friendship between the two and refused to marry him. So he wanted to know more about me through me Regarding the matter of Sixth Sister, I can please Sixth Sister again."
Shi Baoyou went out to meet Mo Junhao almost every day these days. The two talked a lot, but they all revolved around Shi Qingxue.
She had heard before that the fourth prince, Mo Junhao, was cheerful and personable. He was the best among the princes in terms of ability and appearance.
Baoyou had been doubtful before, but after seeing Mo Junhao's demeanor and conversation in the past few days, she knew that the rumors were true.
She couldn't help but say with envy: "Sixth sister is really happy. First, Prince Mo protected her in every possible way, and now His Highness the Fourth Highness still misses her. Isn't this simply every woman's dream?"
Zhou Ruyu looked at Shi Baoyou's expression calmly, and suddenly said: "You can be like her."
Shi Baoyou looked at Zhou Ruyu in surprise, then laughed, "Mom, please stop making fun of your daughter. Your daughter is not as capable as the sixth sister..." making all the men fall in love with her.
Zhou Ruyu snorted coldly and scolded Shi Baoyou for being too cowardly, "You are the precious daughter I raised by eating gold and jade. You will never lose to Shi Qingxue in terms of gold and wealth; and you are good at playing the piano, chess, and painting. Proficient; as for our lady's ladylike demeanor, it is much better than that of Shi Qingxue, who has been hanging out in the military camp all year round and has not mentioned the girlish demeanor of a well-known family.
Why can she be loved by so many powerful people, but you can't? It depends on whether you dare to think about it! "
Shi Baoyou was moved by the beautiful blueprint drawn by Zhou Ruyu, and there was a hint of expectation on her delicately made-up face.
But after a while, she lowered her head lonely and said dullly: "It's useless, His Highness the Fourth Prince said that his feelings for the Sixth Sister can be proven by heaven and earth, and the sun and the moon serve as a guide. He will never change his mind."
"Oh? So, you like His Highness the Fourth Highness?" Zhou Ruyu asked abruptly.
Shi Baoyou's little face turned red instantly, his little head shook like a rattle, and he hurriedly denied: "Of course not."
Zhou Ruyu smiled and was not in a hurry to deny it. He just asked: "Then why is it that when I mention that you can be loved by powerful people, the first thing you think of is His Highness the Fourth Prince?"
"That's because..." Shi Baoyou hurriedly defended, but as soon as he started, his mouth opened, and he couldn't think of an explanation for a long time.
Facing Zhou Ruyu's eyes that seemed to see through everything, she couldn't lie even more.
After being stiff for a moment, he finally admitted honestly, but immediately said in disappointment: "So what if my daughter really likes His Highness the Fourth Highness? The Fourth Highness has always only liked the Sixth Sister. How could I rob the Sixth Sister? ?”
"You're stupid! It's not like you don't know Shi Qingxue's temperament. When you are proud, your tail can reach the sky. She has rejected His Highness the Fourth Prince before, how can she agree again in the future?" Zhou Ruyu was so disgusted with her daughter's innocence. I rolled my eyes.
However, Shi Baoyou didn't believe Zhou Ruyu's words, and suppressed his blush, and spoke kind words for Mo Junhao seriously, "His Fourth Highness is such a good person, even if Sixth Sister can't turn around for a moment and gets angry with His Highness, she will think of His Highness in the future. Well, I will definitely come back.”
Now, Zhou Ruyu couldn't even bother to roll his eyes!
How could she raise such a stupid daughter
Mo Junhao was obsessed with Shi Qingxue, but he clearly coveted the Duke of Shi's Mansion behind Shi Qingxue, and more precisely, he coveted Shi Junhe's influence.
Zhou Ruyu didn't bother to explain so many inner things to Shi Baoyou. She stretched out her hand and touched the other person's forehead lightly, humming: "You silly kid! As you just said, the person who likes Shi Qingxue is Mo Shizi." ah!
Do you think that with Prince Mo here, even if His Highness the Fourth Prince really wanted to marry Shi Qingxue, Prince Mo would probably agree? "
This time, it's not to blame Zhou Ruyu for letting other people's ambitions destroy his own prestige. It was really Mo Junyang's influence on people that was terrible.
So much so that Mo Junyang has risen to the level of a devil in her heart. Even though Mo Junhao is capable, there is no way he can compare with Mo Junyang.
What's more, Shi Qingxue liked Mo Junyang at first glance.
Mo Junhao wants to get involved, but it's not that easy!
"Is this really the case?" Shi Baoyou looked at Zhou Ruyu doubtfully, as if he wanted to believe it, but still hesitated.
Zhou Ruyu couldn't stand the weak character of her daughter's mother-in-law, so she decided to take a strong dose of medicine.
