The reason why Huan'er refused Yi Ming's instructions was entirely out of good intentions. As a result, Mrs. Zhou not only refused to accept her favor, but instead blamed herself blindly, saying that she had no good intentions. Moreover, it was not over yet. She even treated her own lady He was also involved, saying that his bad thoughts were all taught by his young lady. Wasn't he just throwing dirty water on his young lady?
Before Yi Ming opened his mouth to admonish Mrs. Zhou, Huan'er thought that the matter had no chance of turning around and that he would definitely be wronged. The lady was not at home and he didn't have much contact with Yi Ming. He didn't know her at all, so he didn't understand her at all. Stand up and seek justice for yourself.
When he thought that his young lady was still running around looking for Zhou Yi Ming, and if she came back suddenly, instead of being enthusiastic and smiling, she would be greeted with suspicion and blank eyes, this made Huan'er feel extremely desperate. , almost gave everything. If she did not have a good life in the Zhou family because of this misunderstanding, she would be really guilty.
After thinking about it, Huan'er felt completely desperate and her grievances could not be expressed in words. They all turned into tears. In an instant, she became a tearful person. Although she had many grievances in her heart that she wanted to express, she understood that she was just a slave. , Mrs. Zhou has decided that she is a bad person. No matter how hard she tries to explain, she will definitely not forgive herself. And Zhou Ming is Mrs. Zhou’s son. As the saying goes, helping relatives but not helping others, even if what she says makes sense. , Zhou Yiming will definitely not offend his old mother for his own sake.
Just as Huan'er was thinking about whether he should find a place where no one was around and make a short trip before the Zhou family came back. In this way, even though he would die with a full stomach of grievances and would not live in peace, he would at least be able to reduce his feelings for his young lady. After all, the young lady has no other support except the Zhou family.
But Zhou Yiming's words interrupted her thoughts. She had no idea that Zhou Yiming was so sensible. Not only did he not help his old mother blame herself, but he blindly spoke for herself without knowing the inside story.
This moved Huan'er so much that she felt that her young lady's vision was really good. She was really lucky to marry Zhou Yiming, a good uncle like no other in the world.
When she felt happy, not only did she not hold back her tears, but she sobbed and cried even harder.
After comforting his old mother, Zhou Yiming stood up, walked slowly to Huan'er, reached out to wipe the tears from her face, and then comforted her in a soft voice:
"Hao Huan'er, don't cry anymore. What my mother just said was completely out of anger. Don't take it to heart.
You must have seen my mother's frightened look before I came back.
From last night to now, she has experienced too many bad things in a short period of time. Her mood has been ups and downs, and she can't bear it for a while. She has a bad temper. It's understandable for us juniors.
At the same time, I also know that you must have had difficulties in rejecting my order just now. If you have anything to say, feel free to say it, but don’t hold it in your heart.
Your young lady loves you, and I am her husband-in-law, so naturally I love you too. If you have any grievances, I will definitely seek justice for you. "
What Zhou Yiming said was so sensible, and his tone was gentle and his voice was pleasant. This made Huan'er's heart flutter several times while listening. She wanted to throw herself into Zhou Ming's arms and cry bitterly, as if this was the only way to save her. Cry out all the grievances in your heart.
But reason told Huan'er that she couldn't do this, because although the suave man in front of her was handsome, mighty and domineering, and was the type that everyone loved, others could be tempted by him, but she couldn't. After all, he was If you are tempted by your young lady's husband-in-law and commits any deviant behavior, not only will it hurt your young lady, but if Yi Ming is not interested in you at all, you will be ashamed of yourself.
And if such a scandal spreads, she will completely disgrace her young lady. If things really come to that point, the Zhou family will no longer have a place for her, and the Lin family will definitely not take her in.
Thinking of this terrible outcome, Huan'er suddenly sobered up a lot. She forced a smile and said: "Young master is joking, I have nothing to feel wronged about. I cried just now because I was afraid that the old lady would get hurt if she got anxious." My own body made me cry anxiously. I was not angry with the old lady at all, and as for the grievance, I was even less angry.
Since I followed the young lady to your Zhou family, the Zhou family has been very kind to me, and the old lady loves me very much. I am very satisfied to meet such a host.
As for why I refused the young master's order just now, that's a long story. "
Zhou Yiming originally thought that Huan'er was young and would be unreasonable. After he spoke for her, she would act up and make a scene, and even wait for Lin Ajiao to come back and file a lawsuit against him.
However, it turns out that this is all Zhou Ming's overthinking. Although this little girl is still young, she is very smart and knows how to give up when things are good and put the overall situation first.
Not only did she not complain about her grievances, but she was very knowledgeable. She did not take the opportunity to scold the old lady for being ignorant and unreasonable, but she also endured her grievances and spoke for the old lady. For this state, Zhou Ming believed that this The little girl will definitely not be an ordinary person in the future.
Just now, she got angry for no reason and insulted the little maid. This made Mrs. Zhou feel very uncomfortable. After all, she is usually a kind-hearted elder who eats fast and chants Buddha, even in the yard. She is always careful when walking, for fear of accidentally stepping on an ant. It is very rare for her to lose her temper like she did just now.
Mrs. Zhou also thought that if her son spoke to the little maid like this, the little maid would definitely seize on her mistakes and make a fuss about it, but what Huan'er said in the end made Mrs. Zhou feel ashamed.
"Ming'er, pull this little girl over to me quickly. I got angry at someone for no reason just now. I really wronged her.
Look at the child who has been wronged, his eyes are swollen from crying. "
Seeing such a scene, Zhou Yiming finally breathed a sigh of relief. He sent Huan'er to Mrs. Zhou, and then said with a smile: "That's right, mother, my son won't help you with this matter just now." Yes, it's all your fault, please comfort this child."
Mrs. Zhou held Huan'er in her arms and screamed for a long time, which finally made Huan'er laugh.
The atmosphere in the study suddenly became clear after rain.
Seeing Huan'er smile, Mrs. Zhou felt less guilty, and she asked Huan'er with a kind face: "You are a naughty kid like a man.
The young master just asked you to get some pastries, why weren't you willing? Is there really any knowledge here? "
Seeing Mrs. Zhou asking this question, Huan'er, who was originally smiling, suddenly became serious. She played with the skirt of her clothes with both hands and looked away. She didn't know whether she should tell the secret. After all, the secret was about her own lady. If she reveals this matter without the young lady's consent, her young lady will definitely settle the score with her afterwards.
Seeing Huan'er's troubled face, Zhou Yiming became even more curious. He looked into Huan'er's eyes and asked very seriously: "Huan'er, it must be reasonable for you to reject my order so decisively just now, but Why didn't you say it for so long? Could it be that that reason has something to do with your lady? Are you afraid that your lady will be angry with you if you reveal this secret? "
"Young man, how do you know?" Huan'er's eyes widened with a look of disbelief on her face. She knew that Zhou Ming was powerful before, but she never expected that he could actually see through people's hearts.
"As expected." After receiving the affirmative answer, Zhou Yiming had a bad feeling in his heart. He wanted to know quickly what happened to Lin Ajiao before, "Huan'er, you don't have to be afraid. Tell what you know." Tell the truth, if your lady makes things difficult for you, I will make the decision for you."
Mrs. Zhou was also very curious as to what secrets this girl Huan'er was hiding in her heart: "My child, don't be afraid, just say whatever you want. After your lady comes back, she won't dare to do anything to you.
If she really wants to punish you for this, just follow me and I will love you. "
Seeing the Zhou family mother and son being so curious, Huan'er's psychological defense finally loosened. She hesitated for a moment and finally said: "Young Master, Old Madam, this is what you forced me to say. If my young lady comes back later and blames me, You have to make the decision for me!"
"Of course!" Zhou Ming and Mrs. Zhou said at the same time.
With these two people supporting her, Huan'er suddenly felt that her back was hardened. She rolled her eyes, carefully recalled the incident, and then slowly said: "It happened many years ago. , at that time I was still a little girl of six or seven years old, and I had just started to serve my young lady.
At that time, I was still ignorant, but I knew how to be naughty. One day, Mr. Lin and Mrs. Lin asked the young lady to come over to meet them, so I went with the young lady.
As soon as they saw Mr. Lin and Mrs. Lin, they told the young lady to terminate their engagement with Mr. Zhou and find another good match for her.
As a result, my young lady refused to obey her orders and cried and shouted that she would not marry anyone other than Zhou's uncle. At that time, Mr. Lin was very angry and said angrily that no matter whether the young lady lived or died, the marriage was cancelled.
At that time, I was following the young lady. I was so frightened that I couldn't help.
The young lady didn't say anything else in front of Mr. Lin at that time, but after returning home, she stopped eating and started a hunger strike. "
Hearing this story, Zhou Yiming's heart suddenly ached. He really didn't expect that his wife had to suffer so much in her family in order to marry him. At the same time, he also hated his father-in-law very much. He actually treated him so much. His daughter was so hard-hearted that she almost died on a hunger strike.
Madam Zhou had short-sightedness, but after hearing what happened to her daughter-in-law, her tears couldn't stop flowing down her face. She was so moved that she felt that the Zhou family owed Lin Gillian too much.
