Dong Hui sat on the bed in a daze, her face expressionless and as stiff as a sculpture.
But it frightened Aunt Zheng and Shi Baoning. They pinched their palms and beat their chests.
It took a while to bring Dong Hui back to her senses.
"Ah!" Dong Hui cried loudly and hugged Aunt Zheng tightly, not knowing what to do.
Aunt Zheng also cried. While hugging Dong Hui, she begged: "Madam, just listen to my advice. Don't be stubborn anymore. Go and surrender to the master yourself. I've been with you for so many years. I'm sure." I won’t really ask you to go back to Dong’s house.”
Dong Hui's eyes were red from crying, but after hearing Aunt Zheng's advice, her body froze and she said nothing.
Aunt Zheng could see her hesitation at a glance. She was anxious and angry, but she couldn't do anything about Dong Hui's stubbornness.
Simply put a cold voice and warned: "Madam, if you continue to be stubborn, you will really have no choice but to return to the Dong family. If this matter spreads, then you will be even more embarrassed to gain a foothold in this family!"
Who would have thought that the method of stimulating generals did not work, but made Dong Hui even more extreme.
She suddenly stood up from the bed, a trace of sadness flashed across her face, but it turned into determination in the blink of an eye.
"Hmph! Shi Junhe is determined to drive me away this time. If I stay any longer, it will be a shame! It's not like I don't have family members. I'll go back now to see who can persist first. live!"
After that, she ignored the cries and pleas of Aunt Zheng and Shi Baoning and started packing her clothes again.
Seeing Aunt Zheng standing still, she shouted angrily: "What are you doing standing here stupidly? Go pack my things quickly. I still can't change you?"
Aunt Zheng had no choice but to give Shi Baoning a look, hoping that the other party would think of a solution and she would obediently pack her clothes.
Shi Baoning was sweating profusely at this time and wanted to persuade Dong Hui, but she was not as eloquent as Shi Qingxue, so she couldn't persuade him at all, and she kept saying the same words back and forth.
Instead of persuading the person, he pushed the person into the carriage.
Seeing that things had reached a point of no return, Grandma Zheng stamped her feet in anger.
Before she caught up with the carriage, she secretly pulled Shi Baoning aside and whispered: "Madam, I'm afraid only Liu Niang can save Madam now. The person I love most is Liu Niang. As long as she deals with it, everything will work out." of… "
Dong Hui was already urging her on the carriage. Aunt Zheng didn't have time to say so much, so she lowered her voice and said another key: "If it doesn't work, there is also [Alchemy Iron Coupon]..."
After leaving this reminder, Aunt Zheng hurriedly got into the carriage, and did not notice that Shi Baoning's entire face changed color after listening to her words.
Shi Baoning froze at the door, unresponsive.
Seeing that she hadn't moved for a long time, her maid Jingzhuang pulled her sleeves and shouted softly: "Auntie, let's go find Liu Niang!"
Shi Baoning suddenly came back to his senses and heard Jingzhuang suddenly say this. His face darkened and he asked, "Do you also think Qingxue is more capable than me?"
"Ah? No, slave..." Jingzhuang didn't know where she touched Shi Baoning's nerves, and she was so frightened that she quickly begged for mercy.
Just when he was about to slap himself on the ear, he was stopped by Shi Baoning.
The gloom on Shi Baoning's face suddenly faded away, and she was replaced by her usual gentleness. She smiled and nodded to Jingzhuang, "You're right, is it really only she who can accomplish this? Instead I will only be scolded by my father, and he will not even look at me."
When Jingzhuang heard this, her back suddenly felt cold, and she became inexplicably panicked, but she immediately felt that she had thought too much, and the eldest lady was obviously still the gentle eldest lady.
But why were Shi Baoning's words so bitter
Jingzhuang shook her head, dismissed those messy thoughts, and got down to business, "I just went to inquire. I heard from Shi Jing who was preparing the carriage that the master sent people to Prince Rui's Mansion. Should we go to Prince Rui's Mansion to have a look?" "
Upon hearing Prince Rui's mansion, Shi Baoning was frightened.
In fact, the psychological shadow that Mo Junyang gave her before was so powerful that even now she still feels scared when she thinks about Mo Junyang.
Not to mention going to Prince Rui's Mansion, she had to stay away even when Mo Junyang came.
But then she thought that it was Shi Junhe who sent Qingxue to Prince Rui's Mansion, and for a moment she felt that the feeling in her heart was unclear.
It was obvious that his father was the one who brought Shi Qingxue and Mo Junyang together.
She really didn't like Mo Junyang, but thinking about it from another angle, after Shi Qingxue was betrothed, she no longer had to worry about Wen Renchi every day...
"Miss, Miss, what are you thinking about?" Jingzhuang waited for a long time, but did not see any movement from Shi Baoning. Instead, her face was unpredictable, making her little maid's little heart fluctuate.
Shi Baoning came back to his senses and said calmly to Jingzhuang: "Since dad asked Qingxue to go to Prince Rui's Mansion, he must have some important instructions. It would be bad if we go and disturb him at this time, if something goes wrong. .”
"But Madam..." Although Jingzhuang didn't know why Dong Hui suddenly returned to her parents' house angrily, even she, a servant, knew that this kind of thing was urgent and could not be delayed.
Since ancient times, only women who have made serious mistakes will be abandoned by their husbands and returned to their parents' families. Even if Dong Hui takes the initiative to go back, outsiders will not care about the reason. This nonsense may be spread into something unpleasant. Where is my son!
Shi Baoning pursed his lips and said helplessly: "I'll talk to my father again. Maybe my father will have calmed down by now. By then..."
As she spoke, she had already walked to the study, but along the way, she still looked sad and had no confidence in what she was going to do next.
Anyway, this time Shi Junhe let her in.
"Daughter, please give your regards to your father." Shi Baoning saluted Shi Junhe anxiously, not daring to raise his head and waited tremblingly.
Shi Junhe didn't speak at first, he just raised his cold eyes and looked at Shi Baoning coldly.
After a long while, he nodded slightly and said, "Yeah."
There is no further text.
Shi Baoning was used to being passive. She was originally planning to wait until Shi Junhe asked her what she was doing before persuading Shi Junhe to go to Dong's house to take Dong Hui back.
As a result, they ignored her at all, leaving her full of words stuck in her stomach and unable to say a word.
"Father." Shi Baoning looked up at Shi Junhe aggrievedly, as if he didn't understand why Shi Junhe was so cold to her.
However, Shi Junhe just turned away stiffly. Finally, Xu didn't want to make the matter too ugly, so he asked, "Has your mother returned to the Dong family?"
When Shi Baoning saw that his father cared about his mother, his face turned aggrieved, and he nodded quickly and said, "Yes, I just got on the carriage."
Blessed to the soul, she added faintly: "When my daughter saw her mother kissing her on the carriage, the tears on her face hadn't stopped yet. She was in a trance. She was worried that something would happen to her!"
"Then why didn't you go back with her?" Shi Junhe asked calmly.
Shi Baoning's face froze and he could not answer.
Shi Junhe didn't really want to accuse her, so he asked again before she could answer: "Is Aunt Zheng accompanying her?"
"Yes." Shi Baoning responded obediently, not daring to give Dong Hui a hard time this time.
Shi Junhe was still reassured about Aunt Zheng's character and ability. After hearing the answer, he nodded with satisfaction and stopped asking about the matter.
He looked at Shi Baoning and saw the latter standing in front of the desk, looking cramped and coy. He didn't want Baoning to think too much, so he said: "Okay, you have worked hard today, so go back and rest first!"
If there is anything about Shi Baoning that resembles Shi Junhe, it is probably that stubborn temper - the whole family has the same temperament, no one is left behind, and they refuse to give up until the goal is achieved - which is the same as Shi Junhe and Dong Hui.
She was originally here to intercede with Dong Hui, but now she hasn't opened her mouth yet, how could she leave so easily. He wrinkled his sleeves awkwardly, hesitated for a long time, and then said: "Father, father, can you go and bring mother back? It's not good for mother to go back like this..."
Halfway through her words, even she couldn't speak anymore.
There is nothing she can do!
She was usually a little afraid of Shi Junhe's majesty, and there was no way she could act coquettishly and behave like Shi Qingxue with her father.
It was good to be able to communicate normally, not to mention that Shi Junhe still had a cold face now, so she didn't know how to plead to impress Shi Junhe.
Sure enough, Shi Junhe didn't listen to her at all and scolded her directly: "It's not your turn to interfere in the affairs of the elders. If you are really so idle, it will be your wedding to Chi'er soon. You are still too busy." Just put your mind on this!"
Shi Baoning was so punished that he retreated in defeat.
But she was unwilling to give in. She raised her teary eyes and looked at Shi Junhe stubbornly.
She always felt that if the person who said this was Shi Qingxue, even if she still wouldn't get consent, at least she wouldn't be rejected so ruthlessly and coldly.
"Father, in your eyes, is your daughter really not as good as Qingxue?" Shi Baoning couldn't hold it back and finally asked.
Shi Junhe was extremely upset by Dong Hui's incident, and was caught off guard by Shi Baoning's question.
He was stunned and speechless.
This reaction became the default in Shi Baoning's eyes.
Shi Baoning smiled sadly, and tears finally fell from his eyes, "I understand, I understand..."
"What do you know?" A crisp voice came from outside the house.
Then, Shi Qingxue was seen happily running in from outside in a suit of armor. At first, her face was full of joy, but when she saw the expressions of the two people in the room, she suddenly turned to shock.
"Sister, why are you crying?"
Shi Qingxue hurriedly stepped forward to ask, hurriedly trying to wipe the tears from Shi Baoning's face.
However, as soon as she raised her hand, Shi Baoning took a big step back, causing her hand to freeze in mid-air.
For a moment, there was a deathly silence in the room.
Shi Qingxue was startled again. Before she could understand why she was being disliked, Shi Baoning ran out without even a single explanation.
Before leaving, the tears of grievance flashed in front of Qingxue.
She was stunned for a while, then subconsciously wanted to chase after her, "Big sister!"
"Qingxue, stop chasing me!" Shi Junhe stopped the person with a solemn face.
Shi Qingxue had no choice but to stop, but still looked at Shi Junhe in confusion, and asked: "Dad, what is going on? Why did you make eldest sister cry!"
Shi Junhe had just recovered from Shi Baoning's "relegation", his face was gloomy, and he said angrily: "She thinks too much, who can blame her?!"
This sound was extremely cold, and he was obviously angry.
Shi Qingxue wisely did not touch Shi Junhe's bad luck, and tentatively brought up the interesting stories between her and Mo Junyang at the martial arts training ground, hoping to take this opportunity to divert Shi Junhe's attention.
When Shi Junhe's face was no longer so stiff, she told the "freshly baked" embarrassing story again, and at the end she deliberately complained through gritted teeth: "It's all Mo Junyang who is so stingy. It's obvious that his skills are not as good as mine, but he still doesn't admit it." , and made me also make a fool of myself.
You don’t even know how many servants there were in the martial arts training field at that time, and they were all watching! My daughter will be too embarrassed to see anyone! "
Shi Qingxue said exaggeratedly, and even stretched out her little hand in front of Shi Junhe to complain: "Look, my hand was injured by him."
Shi Junhe was shocked when he heard she said she was injured. He quickly looked at her and found that except for a little redness on his snow-white hands, there was no scratch on the skin.
Father threw Qingxue's little hand away angrily and glared at the guy who could exaggerate to deceive someone to death, "Is this the injury you are talking about?"
