Lu Jinxi got off the carriage, and the man from Friday's house, who had been waiting there for a long time, hurried up and said a few words in her ear.

She couldn't help but smile.

Isn't it the elder sister-in-law who is torturing?

"Have fun, I didn't prevent her from waiting so anxiously, I'll go back and have a look. You didn't neglect her, did you?"

Chapter 55 The Death of Xue Leng

In the east courtyard and the west room, He Shi had been waiting for a while. The two curved willow-leaf eyebrows were tightly twisted, and there was a rare trace of anger on the face that was always dull.

The "account books" of the culprits are placed on the square table.

She was on fire when she saw it.

Egret came in from the outside, holding a new hot tea in her hand, and replaced the half-cold tea in her hand: "Look at the weather, the second grandmother is coming back soon. But it's just a guess, say no. It's the right thing. You've been sitting here for half an hour, let's have some snacks."

A maid in the back hurriedly handed over the cakes she was holding.

Egret took it and put it aside for He Shi.

But He Shi's complexion didn't get any better because of this, and even had an undisguised depression and disgust.

Since this morning, have been full of anger, where can eat?

Thinking of what happened today, and seeing Bailu's smiling face again, He Shi wanted to tear her mouth apart so that she wouldn't be able to say these annoying words.

At the moment, she just snorted coldly and mocked: "Your second grandmother, the shelf is really big enough!"

Egret rolled her eyes in her heart, wondering if she is still the big grandma in this house, she has been kicked out long ago, and she dares to talk nonsense here?

She opened her mouth and wanted to answer.

Unexpectedly, Lu Jinxi had already arrived outside the door.

When she heard the voice inside, she smiled, and the laughter was accompanied by the words, and it came from outside the door with a graceful expression: "Sister-in-law has really wronged my younger brother and sister, I just went out for a walk, how did I expect that my sister-in-law was coming? Woolen cloth?"

He Shi was stunned, an uncomfortable feeling in his heart, and immediately climbed up.

She knows it!

Lu Jinxi's tone really changed. It was completely different from the past. Even the politeness when he met his mother-in-law Sun a few days ago disappeared!

Looking up, the maids on both sides had already raised the curtains.

A beautiful figure, surrounded by people, walked in from the outside so gracefully, with a slight smile on his face, which made people feel extra friendly when they saw it.

Bright eyes, translucent and translucent.

Lu Jinxi couldn't see the sickness on Lu Jinxi's face, and even the shyness he used to look at people talking was completely gone.

The more He Shi looked at it, the more shocked and disgusted he became.

There was a vague sense of injustice, rising from the bottom of her heart, and then crawling into her whole body, making her fairly delicate face shrouded in gloom.

"Second grandmother, you are back." Bailu hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, but turned his back to the He family and gave Lu Jinxi a wink, "The eldest grandma sent people to ask four times today, and she came twice herself, but now Now I've been waiting for you for half an hour."

"I really can't stand my sister-in-law."

Lu Jinxi suddenly sighed and stepped forward, only to find that the He family was sitting on the right side of the upper head very naturally...

This is really "conscious" enough.

When the host is away, unless the relationship is close, it is better for the guests to choose the seat below to sit and wait, and it is not too late to change the seat when the host arrives.

But the He family, who had a high self-esteem or something, also sat on the top when Lu Jinxi was away.

Turning his eyes, Lu Jinxi's eyes swept away from He's body, but he didn't say anything, but just sat down opposite He's: "I didn't say a few words with my sister-in-law a few days ago, but today my sister-in-law is here. , it really surprised my younger brother and sister."

He Shi's face was cold, her back was stiff and she sat opposite her, and her voice was also cold: "I am here today, not to catch up with my younger brother and sister, but to ask, is today's matter decided by my younger brother and sister?"

In the second half of the sentence, it was completely questioning.

"What happened today?"

Lu Jinxi was a little stunned, as if he didn't understand very well.

He Shi couldn't help but sneer: "Second younger brother and sister are also masters in acting, can ask the egret next to you to come to my house to ask for something, and say 'the rules of the house', carry it out and press me! If there is someone behind her to support her , this little hoof dares to let loose like this! The second brother and sister dare to do it, don't they dare to recognize it?"

"Grandma!"

When the egret heard this, it was really too ugly.

She was also the eldest maid by Lu Jinxi's side, and she was a little temperamental in her own right, but she immediately turned back: "The servants always follow the rules from beginning to end, and have a clear conscience. It's you, you don't say anything back. Annoyed and angry, a little hoof, who are you scolding!"

"What an unruly girl, how dare you talk back to the master!" He Shi sighed in his chest, and his eyes became vicious, "Brother and sister, is this how you teach the people in the house!"

Lu Jinxi leisurely placed his palm on his knee.

Facing He Shi's gaze, she actually smiled lightly and said calmly, "How do I teach the servants, naturally I don't have to worry about you, sister-in-law. But now I know what it is. Egret, bring Let everyone go out, my sister-in-law and I have two intimate words to say."

These words sounded soft, but there was a deep coldness in them.

Egret listened, and a cold war broke out in his heart. He only glanced at the He Shi, who still knew nothing, and then bowed and led the others back out.

In the room, only Lu Jinxi and He Shi were left.

He shi watched those people go out, and for some reason, he was always a little uneasy, especially when he saw the unmoving smile on Lu Jinxi's face, he felt a little guilty for no reason.

"Second brother and sister, what does this mean? What are the words that the maids can't hear? It's going to be said behind closed doors."

"Pickled words?"

Lu Jinxi wanted to give her two slaps now.

On the way back, Friday's family naturally told her all the situation.

The egret took someone to ask for something, and the He family changed his face almost immediately, and scolded the egret from head to toe in his own room, but the things and the money were unwilling to return.

"Our General's Mansion has always been a place with rules."

"Originally, my sister-in-law brought more things on weekdays and reported to me. I feel sorry for my sister-in-law, just like me, a poor widow, and you don't have a son by your side, so I opened my eyes and closed my eyes."

Lu Jinxi opened his mouth lightly, but He Shi was trembling all over, as if someone had slapped him in the face!

A sentence of "poor widow" and a sentence of "no son by her side" all hit her in the sore foot!

She was so startled that she couldn't sit still: "How dare you—"

"How dare I?"

Lu Jinxi's voice finally rose slightly, but looking at He Shi's eyes, it was already full of sharpness!

"What am I afraid of?"

"Sister-in-law, you are so confused, and you didn't tell me what you got, which really surprised me. But sister-in-law has always been gentle and virtuous, knowledgeable and reasonable. She is a person who understands the rules first-class.

"But now it looks like this, why doesn't it look like it?"

"you!"

He Shi suddenly suffocated, only to feel that several big hats were buckled by her, and her heart was on fire!

The egret came to ask for something, but she couldn't give it.

She can't count how many things she has taken from the warehouse over the years.If she wants to spit out these hard-earned savings, it will undoubtedly cost her life, and sister Pearl's life!
