Even if Jia Ning had done something wrong, she shouldn't have said it out loud. Moreover, Old Mistress felt that it was reasonable for Jia Ning to do so. After all, the two families had always had a tacit agreement to unite by marriage.
Although it was never made clear, both families knew it.
But now, all of this was ruined by Sheng Fenghua, a woman who came out of nowhere. Strictly speaking, Sheng Fenghua was the mistress between Si Zhanbei and Jia Ning.
Old Master Si could see Old Mistress' embarrassment, so he pretended to speak to Sheng Fenghua, "Zhanbei's wife, how can you say that? Apologize to Old Mistress. Jia Ning is Jia Ning. How can you say that about Old Mistress? "
It would have been better if he hadn't said it, but his words made Old Mistress even more embarrassed.
"Yes, Grandfather. I'll apologize to Old Mistress now."
With that, Sheng Fenghua turned to look at Old Mistress and said sincerely, "Old Mistress, I'm sorry. I'm young and immature, so I spoke without thinking. If I've offended Old Mistress, please forgive me."
"As for what Miss has done, I'll have to find a time to talk to Miss about it so that she can stop bothering my husband."
"After all, she's already affected Zhanbei badly. Moreover, breaking up a military marriage will result in a military court. Miss probably doesn't know about this yet. I'll have to find a time to remind her. "
Old Mistress looked at Sheng Fenghua apologizing on the surface, but secretly criticizing Jia Ning. Her expression was extremely ugly. She couldn't listen to it anymore, so she stood up and said, "Brother Si, I still have some matters to attend to at home. I'll go back first. I'll visit again when I'm free. "
Old Master Si didn't ask her to stay. Instead, he ordered Steward Wang, "Steward Wang, see the guest out!"
After Old Mistress left, Old Master Si looked at Sheng Fenghua and didn't speak for a long time.
"Grandfather, what's wrong?" Sheng Fenghua looked at him in confusion.
"Zhanbei's wife, you're still young. You should be more tactful in your words and actions in the future. Don't be so overbearing just now, understand?"
"Yes, Grandfather. I understand," Sheng Fenghua replied humbly. She was not unaware that she had offended Old Madam.
But she didn't mind. Because since the beginning, or perhaps since the moment she married Si Zhanbei, it was impossible for her to get along with her family.
Since that was the case, why should he make himself unhappy for the sake of his so-called face?
"You have to be more careful in B City in the future. That old lady is not easy to deal with. I'm afraid that she won't be able to take this lying down and will harm you."
"Thank you for your reminder, Grandpa. I'll be careful." Sheng Fenghua's heart warmed as she looked at Old Master Si gratefully. She knew that Old Master Si was genuinely concerned about her, which was why he said those words.
"This is the first time I heard that you can play chess. How about it? Play a few rounds with me? "Old Master Si saw that Sheng Fenghua had listened to his words and didn't say anything else.
"Sure! If I'm not good enough, please don't look down on me, Grandpa. "Sheng Fenghua said the ugly words first so that she wouldn't lose too badly.
"We'll know after we play." Old Master Si was full of anticipation for Sheng Fenghua's chess skills.
To him, Sheng Fenghua really didn't look like she came from the countryside. Whether it was the way she conducted herself, her temperament, or her performance, he couldn't tell that she came from the countryside.
