Several people looked at each other, feeling embarrassed.
"Huiniang, it's not what you see. Don't get me wrong." Shi Junhe hurriedly explained. If Zhou Ruru hadn't held him tightly, he would have lost him and ran over to explain to Dong Hui.
But in the eyes of outsiders, he just said something insignificant and had no 'action'.
At this time, Zhou Ruru smiled at Dong Hui and took the initiative to 'explain': "Sister Dong, don't be angry, Brother Shi and I have nothing to do. It's just that I accidentally twisted my foot while dancing just now, and Brother Shi happened to be nearby. After seeing it, he sent me back to Lang Yuexuan."
It’s better not to say such an explanation!
Dong Hui's eyes dimmed and she forced out a smile, "Really? Spraining your foot is not a trivial matter. You need to take a good rest."
Zhou Ruru nodded shyly, "Thank you, Sister Dong, for caring. I will do it. But I still need to trouble Brother Shi to carry me back to the room."
Shi Junhe was speechless, but he had already carried the person to the door of Lang Yuexuan, and he couldn't leave the person alone now, but Dong Hui's face became a little ugly again, which made him feel uncomfortable.
When he was in a dilemma, Shi Qingxue suddenly said: "Dad, are you tired?"
Shi Junhe was stunned for a moment, not understanding the purpose of Shi Qingxue's question. Then he heard her turn around and say to the maid Xia Mang: "Xia Mang, go help take Aunt Ru back to Lang Yuexuan and put her there."
After making the arrangement, she didn't even give Zhou Ruru a chance to refuse. She smiled innocently and said, "Daddy must be very tired after carrying her all the way. It would be bad if Aunt Ru feels uneasy because of this!"
Zhou Ruru was so upset, but she couldn't have an attack, so she had to smile and nod in praise: "Qingxue is so considerate."
Shi Qingxue smiled proudly, "That's right. After all, Aunt Ru, your body is not light either!"
No matter what time it is, a woman's weight is always the most taboo topic. Even if Zhou Ruru doesn't want to offend Shi Qingxue, she can't help but darken her face at this moment.
However, Xia Mang didn't give her time to get angry, and directly took her from Shi Junhe's arms, and then carried her back to Lang Yuexuan.
When Shi Junhe witnessed this scene, he couldn't laugh or cry. He tapped Qingxue's nose and said, "You know how to cause trouble!"
However, Shi Qingxue smacked his hand away unceremoniously and pouted angrily, "Huh! You're still talking about me! I'll see how you explain it to your mother later."
Just now when Zhou Ruru was complaining to Shi Junhe, Dong Hui couldn't help but turn around and go back to the main room.
Shi Junhe sighed helplessly and hurried to the main room to comfort his wife.
"Qingxue, will your parents be okay?" Shi Baoning looked worriedly at the direction Shi Junhe was leaving.
She and Dong Hui had made an appointment to talk to Shi Qingxue just now, but she didn't expect that things were so coincidental, and they all ran into each other. Who knew what trouble would happen
Shi Qingxue blinked and smiled crookedly, "You want to know? Then let's go and see."
After saying that, Shi Qingxue directly pulled Shi Baoning and followed him secretly.
—
Shi Junhe hurried back to the main room and saw Dong Huizheng sitting alone in the bedroom, sulking. She didn't react when he came in and treated him like nothing.
He was also embarrassed, but instead smiled and teased: "Hey, who is so bold as to offend our beautiful lady? Tell me quickly, and I will deal with him!"
Dong Hui squinted at him, "Who do you think you are?"
The Duke pretended to cough and said seriously: "Did you maids serve you carelessly and make your mistress angry?"
This was not the first time that Aunt Zheng saw the old couple getting into a temper tantrum. She responded in a familiar manner: "Master, you have wronged this slave. How dare I be disrespectful to my mistress?"
The Duke of Guo slapped his hand and said firmly: "Then it must be that girl Qingxue who is too naughty again. I will teach her a lesson later!"
A certain girl who was eavesdropping outside the door took the blame innocently.
Dong Hui snorted angrily: "Don't accuse others unjustly! My precious daughter is so good, caring and well-behaved, and she never makes me angry."
The Duke immediately looked embarrassed and sighed: "This is really difficult! Who else can do it?"
Dong Hui originally wanted to show off Shi Junhe, but when she saw the mischievous look on the other side's face, she laughed out loud, and quickly looked angry and glared at Shi Junhe.
Shi Junhe was so stunned by this look that the problem became serious!
He had no choice but to wave his hand and call the servants out, close the door, and coax him with a stern look on his face: "Madam, I made a mistake, please forgive me this time!"
Dong Hui ignored him.
When they were married, Shi Junhe completely ignored the Duke's face and flattered him even more humbly: "If madam is really angry, then just take it out on your husband! Don't make yourself so angry that it will really hurt your heart." Die as a husband!”
After saying that, he walked up to Dong Hui, grabbed Dong Hui's hand and said hello to his face.
Dong Hui felt sorry for her husband after all. She drew back before the slap even touched her face. Her face showed fear and worry involuntarily, and she said nervously: "Why are you so crazy? What if you accidentally get hurt somewhere?"
Shi Junhe knew that Dong Hui couldn't bear to hurt him, so he felt very proud, and said with a righteous face: "If I can make my wife calm down, I will do anything for my husband!"
"Hmph! Don't talk so grandly. Don't think that because I don't know, you are relying on me not to hurt you." Dong Hui said angrily, directly exposing Shi Junhe's thoughts.
Shi Junhe was not embarrassed. Instead, he took Dong Hui's hand and said sincerely: "Hui Niang, don't think about it. There really is nothing between me and that Zhou Ruru. I just happened to touch her and twisted her foot today, so I sent her back." of."
Dong Hui really didn't know the facts, but as long as she was a woman, she couldn't see her husband holding other women. Even if she could understand it, she would still feel uncomfortable. "Of course I know. If you really dare to think wrong, be careful, I will castrate you." !”
As soon as the toughness came out, Shi Junhe naturally agreed and said with emotion, "I have a tough wife at home, so I don't dare to disobey!"
"What? I don't like the fierce wife anymore. Do you want a flower that can explain the language?" Dong Hui raised her eyebrows.
Shi Junhe quickly admitted his mistake, "I don't dare."
Two old couples were making out in the room, chatting with each other for a while, completely unaware that their interaction was being listened to by the two little guys outside.
Shi Baoning blushed and was so embarrassed that he pulled Shi Qingxue and wanted to leave, "Qingxue, my parents have reconciled, let's go back too!"
Shi Qingxue was very excited after hearing this, and of course she refused to leave, "Don't leave in a hurry, they are still talking!"
"It's not good for us to hear these words!"
Shi Qingxue didn't think there was anything wrong. She made a silent gesture and pointed to the room: "Shh, they brought up something else again."
"Hui Niang, after discussing with A Chi yesterday, I requested an order from the emperor. A Chi will join the city guard army and serve as the Youyu Lin Army. He will be responsible for guarding the safety of Kyoto City and the royal guard of honor."
When Shi Junhe explained this arrangement, Dong Hui immediately frowned, "Achi did a good job in the Shi family army, why did he join the city guard army?"
"The City Guard Army is the royal army, and its treatment is much better than that of Shi's army. Besides, he has made great achievements in the northwest this time. The emperor also promoted his official position. He is now a fourth-grade Zhongwu General." Shi Junhe The benefits of this transfer to Wen Renchi were explained in detail.
Dong Hui didn't buy it, "So what if I join the Royal Army? Can it be as comfortable as being under my own nose? Besides, didn't you say that? The ancestral precepts of the Shi family stipulate that the children of the Shi family must serve the Shi family army for life. ?"
Shi Junhe smiled helplessly: "Then Ah Chi's last name is not Shi..."
Dong Hui's eyes suddenly became sharp, "What do you mean by this?"
"No, that's not what I meant." Shi Junhe also realized that he said the wrong thing and quickly explained: "The City Guard Army is a good place to train people. Achi is still young, so it is always good to go out and exercise."
"That's not the reason." Dong Hui sneered and pointed at Shi Junhe's chest, "Wenyu, we have lived together for more than twenty years. Do you think I really don't understand what you are thinking? I think you have no idea at all. You don’t regard A Chi as your own son!”
Shi Junhe quickly denied, "Of course not. I recognized A Chi as my son when I brought him back. It's just that the Shi family needs an heir to the title!"
Dong Hui paused and looked sad, "Then are you still blaming me for not being able to give you a son?"
Shi Junhe was stunned for a moment and hurriedly explained: "No, don't think about it. It's just that the title does not belong to me after all. If it is passed on to an outsider, how will I explain it to my father who is under the Nine Springs?"
"Explain? Didn't everything we said before count?" Dong Hui didn't accept Shi Junhe's words at all and snorted: "Have you forgotten what we planned before dad passed away a few years ago
We agreed at the time that when Qingxue grew up, we would let her marry A Chi and then pass the title on to their son. Even my father didn’t object to this decision, so what do you mean by saying these things now? "
Shi Junhe's face froze and he was embarrassed, and he reluctantly explained: "Isn't that something that is still unreasonable?"
At this time, there was a sudden noise at the door, and both people in the room were startled. Shi Junhe shouted: "Whoever is outside, come in."
Shi Qingxue was accidentally discovered, so she had to push the door open and enter the house angrily, saying weakly: "Mom, dad, it's me, please stop arguing."
When Shi Junhe saw that his quarrel with Dong Hui was seen by his youngest daughter, he was embarrassed and said angrily: "You have no rules. Did you learn so many etiquette just to teach you to eavesdrop?"
Shi Qingxue was so scolded that she drooped her head. Dong Hui suddenly became unhappy and snorted: "Why are you scolding her? This is related to her interests, and she can't bear to listen?"
"Mom, I never thought about my father's title." Shi Qingxue quickly waved her hand to clarify her position.
In her two lifetimes combined, she had never dreamed of inheriting her father's title!
Shi Junhe took advantage of the opportunity and said quickly: "Look! Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. Now Qingxue has grown up and has her own thoughts. If you forcefully drag her and Atchi together, she will not be happy."
