After reading my mind, Daddy, why don't you smile?

Chapter 463: Waiting for the two of them to make a fait accompli

It is said that people's hearts are fickle. I didn't expect that Zhai Jingxuan, who was quiet and elegant when she was young, would grow up to be so bad that she would climb over the wall with her child to steal mulberries!

No wonder he had such a nightmare.

He must have been so mad at her that he wanted her to be in trouble even in his dreams!

……

Mrs. Zhai was also very angry and complained to Zhai's father, "Look at your eldest daughter. The Zhai family can't tolerate her anymore! She actually went to steal mulberries from the Tao family next door. Don't you know what kind of people the Tao family is? I was scolded by that kid from the Tao family because of her. It's so embarrassing!"

Madam Zhai sat down and said, "Fortunately, when that brat came, Master Chengjing had already left, otherwise it would be really embarrassing!"

Father Zhai had no choice but to persuade him, "Just bear with it for a while. When we find a way to deal with her, are you afraid that we can't pay back the shame we suffered today?"

"Easy for you to say!"

"I think Master Chengjing is quite interested in our Jingyu. It seems that there might be some hope today!" Father Zhai's eyes were full of calculation.

After hearing this, Madam Zhai felt relieved and couldn't help but feel proud, "That's right, my Jingyu's charm and beauty are incomparable to that damn girl. I just don't know why a man like Master Chengjing would be so blind as to fall for her!"

Father Zhai took a deep breath and nodded in agreement.

"Hey, Master, I suddenly thought of a good idea! It will definitely make Master Chengjing give up his evil ways and join the good!"

"What idea?" Father Zhai asked curiously.

Mrs. Zhai whispered her idea into his ear, and Mr. Zhai fell silent.

Seeing this, Madam Zhai said tartly, "Master, are you reluctant to part with it?"

"Well, she is your biological daughter after all. She is ugly, but she is used to being embarrassed. But the three of us, mother and son..." Madam Zhai picked up the handkerchief and cried, "Being tortured by Jingxuan is also the fate of the three of us, mother and son!"

"What are you talking about!"

Father Zhai hurriedly comforted her, "It's not that I don't want to, I just think the risk is too great. If things go wrong, it will ruin our Jingyu's reputation!"

Madam Zhai was delighted. "As long as you agree, I'll take care of everything else. Just wait for our Zhai family to flourish and move out of Qingbai Lane!"

As soon as the topic of moving out of Qingbai Lane came up, Zhai's father's last hesitation disappeared.

In the afternoon, just after dinner, the food in Zhai Mansion was just average, and Shangguan Chengjing and Shangguan Qingyue were not picky eaters. It happened that Shangguan Chengjing got into trouble, so he was busy coaxing his sister and had no time to care about anything else.

After dinner, before coaxing Shangguan Qingyue to sleep, Shangguan Chengjing saw the little guy taking a wooden stick, carving a line on a piece of paper, then folding it and stuffing it into the small pillow he brought.

Zhai Jingyu discovered the problem the first time she fed the dog.

These four dogs look small, but they have big appetites.

Not enough to feed at all!

After losing ten pounds of weight, he's like a normal dog!

She wanted to fool them, thinking that since they were fed, she would just consider them full. However, the four dogs were not full and kept barking and showing their teeth at her.

A servant named Hengye was standing beside her, staring at her intently. She had no choice but to have someone prepare raw meat and feed him.

She originally wanted to feed the dog before going to have lunch, but she didn't expect the dog to be so difficult to feed! She is still hungry now!

In just one hour, the freshly slaughtered cow, sheep and three pigs in her kitchen were all eaten up!

Her personal maid Cui'er was dumbfounded. When she saw her looking at her, she stammered, "Second Miss, let alone meat, there is no rice or flour left at home..."

Seeing this, Heng Ye couldn't help but lower his head and hold back his laughter. This was a glutton. He had never seen it full in tens of thousands of years.

Heng Ye coughed twice and said calmly, "That's all for lunch. Please prepare the dog food for dinner, Miss Second!"

"Wang Wang!"

"Uh-huh!"

Heng Ye swaggered away with the four puppies.

Zhai Jingyu was left with a confused look on her face. How could she have thought that just four puppies could eat so much!

Cui Er reminded weakly, "Just now the mistress asked me why I took so many things, and I said I was feeding the dog. When the mistress heard this, she got angry and didn't believe that a dog could eat so much. I thought about the young lady's request and didn't dare to elaborate."

Zhai Jingyu said evasively, "You did the right thing. If you tell mother, that little mute will definitely blame me, and I will end up doing something that is not worth the effort."

"That night..."

Zhai Jingyu took a deep breath and gritted her teeth, "Go get the silver from my box and hurry up to buy it outside!"

"Okay! I obey your command!"

Cui'er left. The more Zhai Jingyu thought about it, the more regretful she felt. The more she thought about it, the more she felt sorry for her private money. If she continued to spend this little private money, it would not last for more than half a month!

Zhai Jingyu's beautiful face was full of gloom, and it was not until Mrs. Zhai sent someone to call her that she relaxed and put on a smiling face.

"What? You want me to seduce that miser Tao Bushe?"

"Keep your voice down!" Madam Zhai warned with stern eyes, "I'm not asking you to be with him, I'm asking you to seduce him to our house, and then I'll lead him to that damned girl Zhai Jingxuan's room. Once they've made it a done deal, Master Chengjing will definitely not want a spent woman like her anymore!"

"If he doesn't want her, who else can he want?"

"Of course..." A gleam of light flashed across Zhai Jingyu's eyes.

Then, she suppressed her excitement and said in displeasure, "Why is it Tao Bushe? I hate him. I hate the poor smell in him!"

Madam Zhai said bitterly, "It's not today..."

Madam Zhai told the story of Tao Bushe's scolding at the door. Zhai Jingyu sneered after hearing it, "You are not worthy of being on the stage! You are unworthy of being the son of an official family!"

"Wouldn't this be a perfect match for your sister?"

“…Hehehe…” The mother and daughter looked at each other and covered their mouths and smiled.

"In that case, I will help my sister achieve this heaven-sent marriage!"

……

Tao family.

Lord Tao was invited to a dinner tonight, and he asked someone to send a message saying that he would not be back for dinner.

Mrs. Tao went to another house to play mahjong in the afternoon, and asked someone to send a message saying that she would just have a meal at the owner's house.

It’s a pity for Tao Bushe, why doesn’t he have a place to eat!

He was alone at night and he was reluctant to light a fire. It happened that the mulberries were ripe and fell to the ground. He picked them up and counted them. There were exactly 153 of them!

It was enough to fill him up.

He was sitting on a bench under a tree, and just as he was about to eat, the door rang.

As soon as he opened the door, Zhai Jingyu and Cui'er were standing there gracefully, with a small basket hanging on their wrists. When she saw him open the door, she whispered softly, "Master Tao, today I heard from my mother that my sister offended you and stole your fruit. Jingyu couldn't bear it, so she specially prepared some fried fruit as an apology!"

As she spoke, Zhai Jingyu handed the woven basket to Tao Bushe.

Tao Bushe took a look into the basket and saw that there were indeed fried fruits. They were peeled, round and a little burnt. When he took a breath, the aroma of the fried fruits flowed into his limbs through his nose, making his stomach feel even emptier.

Tao Bushe snatched the basket away.

He didn't notice the contempt in Zhai Jingyu's eyes.

"Miss, you are too polite. Since you are so sincere, I will not refuse."

Zhai Jingyu pulled the corner of her lips and glanced behind him, "Are you alone at home?"

Before Tao Bushe could speak, Zhai Jingyu blinked and said playfully, "It's hot, sir, do you mind inviting me and my maid in for a glass of water?"
