Shi Mingchen had just suppressed his impotent rage, but when he heard her voice, it was like a devil's voice piercing his ears, his brain was about to explode, and he sneered:

"Shi Yao, you dare to come back! Were you kicked out by Minghui? He doesn't have as good a temper as I do."

"Oh, my brother, you know Eighth Brother very well," Shi Yao smiled happily, not feeling embarrassed at all about being kicked out, "That's right, Eighth Brother doesn't like me and didn't even give me a cup of tea.

My elder sister is also visiting the patient. She didn't even invite me to sit with her. She was chatting with my eighth brother, laughing and ignoring me. It was so boring. I had no choice but to come back to find you. It's still quiet here."

She emphasized the word "pure".

Shi Mingchen's eyes dimmed.

Zhuzhu didn't come to visit him.

He opened his mouth with concern: "You haven't recovered from your illness yet? Why are you running around? Aren't you afraid of getting caught in the scandal again? Minghui is really ignorant, why don't you try to persuade Zhuzhu?"

"Yes, yes, I'm as worried about big sister's health as you are." Shi Yao made the same expression as him, and her tone was exactly the same, half concerned and half complaining, "It's just ten strokes of the board, how could big sister ignore her own health and run to the front yard to visit eighth brother?

I don't know if big sister will come to visit you. If she does, you must try to persuade her well and don't be like Eighth Brother and keep big sister for half an hour.

Well, my duty of visiting the patient today is finally completed. I am leaving now. Otherwise, when the elder sister comes, she will just chat and laugh with you and leave me aside. I am afraid that I will dig a Mona Lisa with my toes here. Bye!"

After saying this, Fu bowed, and his figure was as light as a swallow returning south in spring. He passed through the two door curtains and disappeared.

"Shi Yao! Shi Yao! Come back here! Who taught you to be so weird?"

Shi Mingchen was distracted for a moment. He had not won the argument, and he wanted to beat his chest and stamp his feet, and catch Shi Yao back and give her a good beating to teach her how to speak properly.

The head maid Huaixi came in with a teapot, looked around, and was about to quietly leave when Shi Mingchen asked angrily, "What are you doing with the teapot? Who are you going to serve tea to?"

Huai Xi smiled and said, "I forgot for a moment that the master is taking medicine and cannot drink tea. Bring it out now and I will drink it myself."

"Give me!"

Huai Xi had no choice but to carry the teapot to the bedside.

Shi Mingchen grabbed the teapot and threw it to the ground: "Next time she comes, if you dare to serve her tea again, I will twist your head!"

Huai Xi stepped back, feeling sorry that the purple clay teapot was broken. She squatted down to clean it up and replied, "Yes, I'll remember that."

With my bad temper, it would be a miracle if the second girl comes a second time.

Even this time, the second girl repeatedly emphasized that she was following the instructions of the lady and was just going through the motions.

Forget it, forget it. It was so hard to get someone to come and visit me, but he made me angry and left.

It was good that the guests had left, as it gave those serving them some peace and quiet.

Huai Xi knew Qi Ye a little bit. Although he was a bit harsh in his words, he was actually not that bad. Otherwise, he would not have thrown the teapot so far away and did not hurt her at all.

To destroy the Second Young Lady's innocence, the Second Master, who is a reckless person, can do it, and the Eighth Master, who is a taciturn person but actually has a lot of evil intentions, can do it, but the Seventh Master cannot do it.

He didn't explain himself. He was crazy. He didn't love his own sister who had the same father as him, but instead chased after other people and helped other people's sisters vent their anger. He was a disloyal person and deserved to be beaten. The second girl deserved to be angry with him.

Well, now he has been classified as one of the innocent people who murdered his own sister, and is grouped with the Second Master and the Eighth Master. He has become the representative of the vicious brothers in the capital. The three brothers are notorious together. Are you happy?

After Shi Mingchen vented his anger, he felt a little better. Thinking of Zhuzhu, he said with a sour tone, "Did the eldest lady go to visit Minghui?"

Huai Xi glanced at him and swept the teapot residue into the dustpan: "I went there early in the morning and had breakfast in Master Ba's room."

Calculating the time for breakfast in the mansion, Shi Yao was not lying, it was indeed about half an hour.

Shi Mingchen pursed his lips tightly and his eyelids drooped.

Huai Xi comforted him, "Don't worry, Master. The eldest girl knows etiquette best. Since she went to visit Master Ba, she will definitely come to visit Master."

Shi Mingchen felt another blow to his heart.

Visiting Minghui was a sign of deep brotherly love, but when it was his turn, it was only out of courtesy.

But he waited and waited, hoped and hoped, holding his breath to slap Shi Yao in the face, but in the end, Shi Mingzhu didn't come until noon.

He told Huai Xi to invite Shi Mingzhu to have lunch.

Huai Xi glanced at him with pity and replied respectfully, "Eighth Master was afraid that the young lady would get into trouble, so he sent someone to send her back to Lanpei Courtyard an hour ago."

As for the eldest girl who seemed to have cried, and the fourth girl of the Ge family who went to visit the Eighth Master, since the master didn't ask, she didn't say anything.

Shi Mingchen suddenly felt the breath he had been holding in his heart dissipate, and all the strength in his body also dissipated.

He buried his face deep in the pillow.

Like an ostrich burying its head deep in the sand.

?

On the second day, Shi Yao took the copied family rules and went to pay her respects to the Lady Dowager and the Old Duke.

The Shi family members were all busy, so they greeted each other and went their separate ways.

Shi Yao, a lively and idle person, stayed to have breakfast with the two elders.

After the examination, the old Duke shook his head and said, "The handwriting reflects the person. A woman should also have good handwriting, like Zhuzhu... She is ill and cannot teach you. When you have time, come and visit your grandmother. Your grandmother's handwriting is very elegant. If you can learn even a little bit, you will benefit from it for the rest of your life."

"I will follow my grandfather's teachings and ask my grandmother for advice." Shi Yao took back her homework and sat next to the lady.

The lady was sad that Shi Yao had no good teacher in Jinling, so she asked lovingly, "I went to see your three brothers yesterday. Did they give you any trouble?"

Shi Yao's spirits perked up. She would not cover up for the three "fugitives" and said with a look of fear:

"When I went to Tangxi Courtyard, my second brother was so scary that he stripped off half of the maid's clothes and bit her until she bled. Her teeth and lips were covered in blood. I was scared to death! My second brother threatened me that if I dared to compete with my eldest sister for favor, he would kill me!"

After that, her expression changed, and she continued angrily, "I went to Seventh Brother's yard, and Seventh Brother also told me not to compete with Big Sister for favor, otherwise I wouldn't live long enough to get married. I had an argument with him, and he laughed at me saying that no one loved me. I replied that no one loved me, and I ran away immediately after I finished speaking. He couldn't get out of bed and chased me, and it was with great difficulty that he won the argument!"

Finally, she said sadly, "I went to Eighth Brother's yard. He didn't say anything, but he ignored me. Big Sister was there too, but she ignored me too. I stood there, digging my toes into the ground. I had no choice but to leave in shame. However, I left some supplements, which I think can win back Eighth Brother's heart a little."

Although he was accusing someone of something evil, his expressions were exaggerated and vivid, and his speech was interesting, so it was not offensive.
