Chapter 75 Thunderbolt [Review]

"And then?"

When the ninth sister finished speaking, the second wife's reaction was surprisingly calm.

The ninth sister was slightly surprised. She shouldn't be. The second wife's expression should not be so plain. Just now, she clearly felt that the second wife's mood fluctuated, and she was really panicked, but why did the second wife become more and more careless after she finished speaking?

The ninth sister's heart suddenly thumped, and there was a slight sweat behind her. She looked at the second wife's eyes quietly and waited for the second wife's words. Unfortunately, the second wife also looked at her like this. For a moment, the room was strangely quiet.

Although Sister Jiu is very quiet on the surface, she is not calm at all. She has done her best these days. If the second wife doesn't believe her and is in a passive state because of this matter, it will be the real trouble. After all, this time she completely took full use of Deng's mother and Feng's mother. It's okay to say that Deng's mother is fine. After all, she is by the second wife's side. But Feng's mother is indeed the person around her. If you really want to do something to her, you just need to...

She couldn't help shivering and couldn't imagine it. If she lost the bet, is it really up to fate?

She said this in front of Deng's mother and Feng's mother to make the second wife have any scruples. If she can convince the second wife that Deng's mother and Feng's lives are not in danger, she may also show her loyalty if she loses the bet. That's the real dark day in Xue's house.

Inadvertently, the ninth sister gently bit her lips. Although she pretended to be calm, if you observe carefully, you will still find that the ninth sister is actually more nervous than the second wife.

The second wife is indeed very nervous. She never thought that Sister Jiu would see anything from the account book, but she still underestimated Sister Jiu's strength. But Sister Jiu has clearly proposed that if you don't do something secretly, you can only do it according to Sister Jiu's words.

It's just that she is a little reluctant. Why is the eldest wife's daughter so smart, or something else? In short, the second wife doesn't like things beyond her control.

"Second aunt, the warehouse has been lost a lot, and Jiu'er is just..." Sister Jiu'er seemed to have died and wanted to withdraw from this matter.

"Sister Jiu, you are a smart child!" Before the ninth sister finished speaking, the second wife continued, "You are so smart. Since you can see what the account book is about, you should naturally know why I asked you to help me take care of Xue's house."

"It's the meaning of the old lady!"

"Jiu'er understands that Jiu'er is the daughter of the Xue family after all. Could it be that you and your grandmother have forgotten it?" Sister Jiu's words revealed a trace of sadness, her eyes were slightly red, and she looked really pitiful.

The second wife's heart was a little bitter. Although the whole Xue family knew that she was the eldest daughter of the eldest wife, she was not regarded as a member of the Xue family after all, even the old lady. Who let her raise her in Zhejiang since she was a child? If the eldest lady cruelly sent the ninth sister to Chang'an, the old lady would not treat her like this.

However, the ninth sister was not sent to Chang'an at the beginning, and God knew how happy she was. Perhaps because of this, the old lady seems to be distressed by the ninth sister, but secretly does not regard the ninth sister as her own. But that was also revenge on the deceased old lady. Maybe one day Sister Jiu really became the heart of the old lady. At that time, she couldn't even cry.

"You are delicate, and you can naturally see it, but what can happen? I don't know how happy the old lady was when you were born in Zhejiang. I was eager for you to return to the capital, but your mother refused to let you go back to the capital. Naturally, the old lady was depressed.

Hmm? Sister Jiu didn't expect such a thing to happen.

However, the second wife's next words made Sister Jiu think seriously.

"The old lady can be capricious, but as the head of the family, I dare not be capricious. If you really have the ability, you will definitely follow me. It turns out that you are more able than I thought. Maybe the third sister was not as good as you when she was a child!" The second wife was in a trance when she mentioned the third sister. She came to her senses and continued, "But even if she has the ability, this heart is not with me. What do I want her to do? You are honest and more careful than other ladies. It's reasonable to say that you are the best candidate, but I'm always worried!"

Sister Jiu finally understood what the second wife was worried about. This time, the second wife told her so frankly that she wanted to say that the ninth sister could rely on the old lady without hesitation and live well in Xue's house, and she could also choose to manage Xue's house by her side, but if she chose to be by her side, it must Finally, she was single-minded.

"Go back and think about it first. If you can be my right-hand man like the eldest sister, I will be satisfied." The second wife seemed to be a little tired and attracted Mother Deng and said, "Mother Deng, I didn't take a nap today. It's also drowsy this day, just right for a rest. You go to make the bed first!"

When Sister Jiu saw that the second wife had no intention of talking, she couldn't talk anymore. She took a look at Feng's mother, who had never spoken, and knew that she had used Feng's mother once, and it was always her own fault.

If you can only choose one of them in front of the old lady and the second wife, this is indeed a difficult problem. And from the second wife's words, she also knew the reason why the old lady treated her like this. It turned out that she was too complicated.

But is she so willing to walk to the old lady? Not to mention what the old lady thinks, as long as the second wife makes a little stumbling, she can't stand it. After all, there are some things that the old lady can't touch.

"Wow--" Sister Jiu exhaled a long breath of turbidity and looked at the second wife who was half propped her head. She was not in a hurry to leave. Her eyes wandered on the second wife's face.

Although the second wife has let the ninth sister leave, she has not driven the ninth sister away. Maybe the second wife prefers her to give the answer now.

The corners of Sister Jiu's lips rose again. "The second aunt has a good rest. Jiu'er saw that she was still busy with the third sister's marriage in the accounting room. If there is anything that can help, send someone to call Jiu'er." The ninth sister blessed the second wife, regardless of whether the second wife opened her eyes or not.

The second wife was overjoyed. Sister Jiu had clearly told her that she would help her take care of Xue's house, and she also wanted to start from the accounting room. How could she not be happy?

She nodded slowly, obviously satisfied with the decision made by Sister Jiu. Looking at Sister Jiu, she is also very pleasing to the eyes. After all, she is still in charge of this family.

"Second wife, something big has happened!" Liu's mother rushed in from the second room in a panic, regardless of whether it was offensive or not. Her voice trembled with fear, "Sir Zhou, Mr. Zhou, he is gone!"

This sentence is like a bolt from the blue blowing up in the house.

The second wife suddenly stood up from the soft couch and said anxiously, "The third sister knows the situation!"

"The third sister has fainted, second wife, what's wrong with this?"

The second wife could no longer pretend to be calm and rushed into the drizzle.

The ninth sister came to her senses. If Mr. Zhou died, wouldn't the third sister's marriage be gone? If the third sister still stays in Xue's house, where can she find her place? No, she just won the position, how could she give up?

Before everyone came to their senses, the ninth sister also followed the second wife directly in the heavy rain.
