Houfu Key Class

When Xu Shangshu saw them coming, his anxious face immediately changed to a smile, and he ran down quickly and shouted: "Xian son-in-law, Wan'er, you are finally here, are you delayed because of something at home? Our food is ready at home. , just waiting for you to come.”

Before he came over, Xu Wan whispered to Zong Zhao: "My father is very good at making troubles. He can find reasons for anyone who comes late. He is so thick-skinned."

Zong Zhao patted the back of her hand and whispered: "Wait."

"Um?"

Wait? What are you waiting for?

Seeing Xu Shangshu approaching, Xu Wan said to him, "Father, happy New Year."

Xu Shangshu's face was full of kindness: "Okay, come in quickly. Wan'er looks good. I think she is well taken care of by the general and is more beautiful than before she got married..."

Zong Zhao's eyes became colder and colder, so cold that Xu Shangshu could not continue what he said.

He quickly said: "Let's go inside and talk."

Not only did Zong Zhao call him father-in-law, he didn't even say hello. Xu Shang's writing was also a bit ugly.

If the rude person was Mr. Chen from the Duke's Palace of Jin, he would have to give him a lesson no matter what. But the person in front of him was General Zhenxi and a confidant of Luo Jingfeng. Who would dare to offend him.

The couple entered the mansion, followed by two groups of people, with more than twenty maids and servants serving them.

In the dining room, Xu Shangshu invited the two of them to sit down, and the twenty servants stood behind them waiting. The battle alone made Xu Shangshu frightened.

But he is also a minister after all. What kind of battle has he not seen?

He cleared his throat and started chatting with them about daily life: "Ms. Liu suddenly went crazy yesterday and couldn't go out to meet guests. Only dad is here to eat with you. The place he didn't take good care of..."

Zong Zhao interrupted him: "She doesn't like eating fungus."

Only then did Xu Wan notice that the table was full of food. There was a plate of fried fungus in front of her, which was the food she disliked the most.

In the past, when she was in Shangshu Mansion, the girl who served her would deliberately let her eat fungus until she almost vomited. Later, when she married into the Hou Mansion, she never saw this dish again.

Xu Shangshu was stunned for a moment, and immediately said: "Quickly, take this dish away! Who arranged this? Why can't you even remember what the eldest lady likes to eat?"

The serving maid was so frightened that she knelt down and said, "Yes, it was prepared by the maids in the eldest lady's room. The slaves didn't know what the eldest lady likes to eat, so they asked them."

Zong Zhao put down his chopsticks and looked at Xu Shangshu coldly.

This attitude was already very unhappy. Cold sweat broke out on Xu Shangshu's back. He said in a trembling voice: "Call those girls over. I want to ask them what's going on."

"yes."

The servants went to fetch people, and Xu Shangshu asked people to bring new dishes. Only Xu Wan gave him some face and picked up a chopstick. Zong Zhao didn't move at all, and his aura was so dark and oppressive.

Several maids came in and immediately knelt down and replied: "To tell you what to say to the master, the eldest lady liked eating fungus the most before she got married. Maybe... maybe she changed to eating something else after she got married. I don't know this!"

Xu Wan saw these people again after a few years, and it still felt like it was a lifetime ago. At that time, she had just died suddenly due to overtime work, and all she wanted to do was live a miserable life and wait until she got married.

And because these girls had Liu's attitude, they naturally knew how to read people's food. They deducted all the food in Xu Wan's room and gave her all the food that none of the maids would eat. They only gave her sour fruits for dinner. eat.

In this case, the fungus that she hated to eat turned into good food. As time went by, the girls couldn't remember clearly whether Xu Wan hated eating fungus or not.

When Xu Shangshu heard this, he quickly asked: "Did Wan'er change her taste after getting married?"

Xu Wan smiled and said, "What do you think, dad?"

Zong Zhao was standing up for her, and she couldn't help Xu Shangshu smooth out his words at this time, otherwise she would lose Zong Zhao's face.

She knows good and bad.

Xu Shangshu couldn't help but hold on and said: "Ignorant girls who are not doing well will be sent to..."

"Panzui." Zong Zhao interrupted him again.

"Yes, General."

Cuizhi was so blessed that he took a few maids with him and walked directly towards the maids.

The aura of our maid was so strong that the people huddled together in fear and looked at her in panic.

"Pa--" The sound of slaps in the face sounded out, and echoed in the large dining room.

"Ah..." A cry of pain sounded.

"My slave is wrong. I cannot remember clearly. The eldest lady hates eating fungus, ah..."

"Pah——"

Every slap was clearly distinguishable. Although it hit the girl's face, Xu Shangshu felt that it also hit his own face.

Zong Zhao...

Zong Zhao dared to come to his house and beat his maid...

Who is whose father-in-law?

Is this what he should do as a son-in-law?

Xu Shangshu was so angry that his chest heaved and his facial muscles were twitching, but it was impossible to break up with Zong Zhao just because of this matter.

He turned to a smile and said: "My dear son-in-law, calm down, calm down, these girls who don't know the rules are not worth your anger. Thinking on the bright side, it's a good thing that I didn't marry Wan'er to the Hou Mansion, otherwise I would still have to be with you. If there is trouble at home, my fault will be even greater.”

Zong Zhao raised his eyes and asked, "Does she have a dowry girl?"

Xu Shangshu was suffocated by the question and stammered: "Home, family affairs are all taken care of by the Liu family. I am busy with official duties in the court and did not pay attention to these things. It should, it should be there, right?"

Although he doesn't often pay attention to the affairs of the back house, when a woman from the capital's official family gets married, she has to bring her maid with her. Only by having familiar people under her can she go to the new mansion to do things easily. Otherwise, wouldn't she have to fight alone?

If a bad family is involved and there is no one to report the news to the mother's family, the sky will not respond and the earth will not work.

Xu Wan regretfully told him: "No."

Mrs. Liu just wanted to mess with her. She was not living well, so Ms. Liu felt comfortable, so she was the one who married him in the first place.

Xu Wan didn't care at that time, thinking that she might be relieved by going to her husband's house, but who knew that a little devil in the world would be there, making her so angry that she burst out all the anger she had been holding in for so long.

Xu Shangshu's face was completely unhinged, and he said angrily: "How dare Mrs. Liu do such a thing behind my back? Come on, call her..." He was about to say to call Mrs. Liu, but he remembered what Zong Zhao had said yesterday. After mentioning that Mrs. Liu would not be allowed to sit at the table, she immediately changed her words and said, "Tell her to kneel in the ancestral hall!"

Zong Zhao asked casually: "Kneel down in the ancestral hall and copy women's virtues a hundred times?"

Xu Shangshu, who was clearly arranged: "..."

Who is the father-in-law and who is the son-in-law?
