Chapter 288

Shi Fengming cursed his bad luck in his heart. How could he have coincidentally overheard it at that time? Embarrassment appeared on his face and he apologized even more submissively, "What I said earlier was an unintentional mistake. I spoke without thinking. Please forgive me, Young Master Zhou!"

"It's easy for you to say!" Young Master Zhou said coldly, "How dare you slander my sister in front of me. Who knows what you've done behind my back! My sister is such a good girl, but she was harmed by you. Now that she finally has a few days of peace, you came to cause trouble again! "

Shi Fengming immediately felt wronged and hurriedly said, "That day was really just a coincidence. I, I didn't bully her behind her back! Didn't I just come back from outside and fall sick? How could I have the chance to bully her? No, no, I'm saying, I really didn't bully her! If you don't believe me, you can ask Su Qing and Su Bi. They are her personal servants, so they naturally know everything! "

It would have been better if Shi Fengming didn't mention this matter. Now that he did, Young Master Zhou became even angrier. He glared at him with hatred, wishing he could tear him apart! His sister had just gotten married and was abandoned by him for two years. He still had the nerve to say this!

"You can leave! If you don't leave, I'll call someone to chase you away! " Young Master Zhou couldn't swallow this anger. He immediately changed his father's words and decided to chase him away.

Shi Fengming was anxious and hurriedly said, "If you're still angry, just hit me a few more times. I really want to bring Jingyi back! Young Master Zhou, no matter how wrong I was in the past, it's all in the past. I will definitely treat Jingyi well in the future. I won't go back until I bring Jingyi back! "

"You!" Young Master Zhou raised his hand and wished he could hit Shi Fengming's face a few times. Seeing the bruises on his face, he tightly clenched his fist and could only put it down bitterly!

Shi Fengming was already prepared to be beaten. Seeing his fist raised and put down, he secretly sighed in relief. Seeing that he was still angry and unwilling to let go, he thought to himself, Forget it. Anyway, I've already come to this point. It's quite embarrassing for me to stay at the door every day and let the passersby roll their eyes. Today, I finally saw her, so I can't let her go in vain! In any case, he no longer had any image in the eyes of the Zhou Clan, so he didn't care if he refreshed their bottom line again!

Shi Fengming made up his mind and went forward to kneel in front of Young Master Zhou. He pulled on his lapel and said, "Young Master Zhou, Brother-in-law, please be merciful and do good! I only want Jing Yi as my wife in this lifetime. Give her back to me! I know she still misses me in her heart. Why do you have to separate us? "

"You! Let go of me! " Young Master Zhou did not expect that he would make such a move. He was caught unprepared and tried to break free in a flurry.

When Shi Fengming saw that his cold and vicious brother-in-law's face actually showed a flustered and helpless expression, he suddenly felt a sense of relief in his heart. How could he be willing to let go? She was even more shameless, her hands tightly hugging his thighs, her mouth begging endlessly.

Young Master Zhou was annoyed, amused, and helpless at the same time. There was nothing he could do about it. He stomped his foot and scolded, "If what you said is true, then it's our fault! You bastard, which part of you looks like a decent person? I don't know what kind of eyes that little sister of mine has for you! Get up! If you continue like this, I'm really going to call someone to beat you up! "

"Brother-in-law!"

"Shut up! Let go! "

"Young Master Zhou …" How could Shi Fengming be willing to let go?

Young Master Zhou was helpless. He sneered and said, "My father is waiting in the residence. It's up to you whether you want to go or not!"

Shi Fengming's eyes lit up. In surprise, he subconsciously loosened his grip. Young Master Zhou retracted his leg and took a few steps back. He said coldly, "Come in with me!"

"Okay!" Shi Fengming smiled. Under the disdainful gaze of Young Master Zhou's manservant, he got up from the ground. He brushed the hem of his robe that was stained with some mud and hurriedly followed Young Master Zhou in.

After walking for a while, they arrived at a courtyard. Young Master Zhou stopped in his tracks. With his back facing Shi Fengming, he said coldly, "I don't know if my father is free right now. You can wait here!"

"Okay, then I'll wait!" Shi Fengming's scalp was a little numb. His heart was a little anxious. He knew that his father-in-law would not let him off so easily.

Young Master Zhou was thinking about his father's instructions. "If he wants to wait, then bring him in to wait. Otherwise, he'll bring shame to our Zhou family by staying at the door!"

Young Master Zhou continued to walk away. Shi Fengming could only stand there.

The people in the residence came and went. They could not help but take a few glances at him. Shi Fengming was helpless. He could only brace himself and endure. He secretly mocked himself in his heart. As the son-in-law of the Zhou family, he had completely lost all his face! It would be better if he did not come in the future … It was too embarrassing …

Shi Fengming waited until night fell. There were even more servants coming and going. However, not a single one stopped by his side to greet him. The masters of the Zhou family had completely forgotten about him! His stomach was growling from hunger. His legs and waist were sore, but he still had to endure it.

"Old Master! If he continues to stand like this, he'll be tormented! I think we should just forget about it! "On the contrary, it was Old Mistress Zhou who could not hold herself back and said.

"Soft-hearted!" Old Master Zhou said, "Don't worry! If he can't even endure this bit of hardship, how can he be considered sincere? Let's leave him hanging first. We'll talk about it tomorrow! "

Old Mistress Zhou moved her lips and closed them.

Old Master Zhou instructed someone to bring him to the guest room when night fell. After thinking for a while, he said, "When the time comes, let the maidservant by Young Mistress' side know something."

The servant was stunned. He secretly glanced at Old Mistress Zhou. Seeing that she did not object, he bowed and left.

"Ai!" Old Mistress Zhou let out a long sigh. Her heart was filled with both joy and worry. As a mother, she naturally did not wish for her daughter to live a miserable life. However, letting her follow that bastard back to the Shi family, was it really good for her?

"I think this brat has some sincerity this time. Don't worry too much! If he returns to his old ways in the future, hmph, if we can get our daughter back once, there will naturally be a second time. "Old Master Zhou sighed and said.

Old Mistress Zhou nodded, "Old Master is right! In any case, I won't watch my daughter suffer. "

The night was shrouded and the sky was completely dark. Not far away, there were two sparse yellow lights. There was no moon and the stars were not bright. Everything around was immersed in the darkness of the night. When the wind blew, the shadows flickered and swayed. This was in someone else's residence. Although it was not to the extent of being afraid, it still felt desolate and cold for no reason.

What was worse was that his entire body was sore and his stomach was rumbling with hunger! Shi Fengming bent down and rubbed his sore calves. He wished he could sit on the ground, but after thinking about it, he did not dare to.

He regretted in his heart. He regretted following Young Master Zhou into the residence. If he waited outside the residence at this time, at least he could buy something to eat when he was hungry and sit on the ground when he was tired, right? Here, it was really —

His eyes lit up. It was an old woman standing in front of him with a lantern. Shi Fengming's spirit was lifted and he hurriedly smiled at her kindly.

The old woman's eyes did not look at him. She lowered her head and bowed slightly, saying, "It's already late today. Old Master said that he would see Young Master again tomorrow. Young Master, please follow me to the guest room for the night!"

Shi Fengming opened his mouth. He really wanted to ask if there was anything to eat, but in the end, he did not dare to ask. He nodded and raised his hand, saying, "I'll have to trouble Mama to lead the way!"

The old woman did not waste time talking nonsense with him. She nodded and led the way. After a while, she led him to a room. She looked inside and said, "This is the place. The water to wash your face has already been prepared. Young Master, rest early! Don't wander around the residence. "

"Thank you!" Shi Fengming agreed sullenly. He pushed the door and entered with a glimmer of hope. He scanned his surroundings and was disappointed. There was really no food, not even tea. There was only a basin of steaming hot water to wash his face with a towel …

Shi Fengming laughed at himself. Big Brother said that he was begging for help now, so he had to show his sincerity and attitude. So, if there was no food, then there was no food! This was also a test! He would not die from hunger for half a day and a night! However, his stomach was really hungry … It was better to quickly wash his face and go to bed!

When Su Qing heard the news, she was hesitant about whether she should tell her young miss. She knew her young miss's thoughts the best. Being willing to shave her hair and become a sister-in-law was not her original intention. Even if she was wearing plain clothes and eating vegetarian food, she had to act in front of Old Master and Madam.

She knew that her young miss was still thinking about that scoundrel of a son-in-law!

Now that the son-in-law had come begging, if he could reconcile with her young miss, her young miss would definitely be willing. However, who knew what the son-in-law's intentions were? If he were to cause trouble again in the future, her young miss's life would definitely be ruined by his hands!

"What's wrong with you? You look absent-minded! "Zhou Jin Yi sat at the table and drank tea. She asked faintly," Did you hear some gossip again? "

Her parents doted on her, and her brothers and sisters-in-law pitied her. However, in the end, she was still a great aunt who had returned to her maternal family in disgrace and refused to marry again. There were always people in the residence who gossiped behind her back. If they were not making malicious guesses, they would make up jokes to make fun of her. Su Qing and Su Bi had unintentionally heard about it two or three times before and were so angry that they quarreled with them. They came back to complain tearfully to her, but she suppressed it and did not allow it to reach her parents, brothers, and sisters-in-law's ears.

To her, she didn't care about gossip and gossips for a long time. It was just a passing cloud! No, it couldn't even be called a passing cloud!

Su Qing clenched her teeth and knelt down in front of her, "Young miss, there is something this servant thought it would be best to tell young miss!"

"If it's just some gossip you heard from somewhere, then forget it!" Zhou Jin Yi faintly smiled.

"No," Su Qing raised her head and said, "The son-in-law is here!"

Zhou Jin Yi was startled and stood up, "What did you say? Who is here? "

"Young miss!" Su Qing quickly stood up and helped her sit down. She then told Zhou Jin Yi everything she had heard, "I heard that the son-in-law came three days ago and was kicked out by Old Master, Madam, and Eldest Young Master. These past two days …"

"You, where did you hear this gossip! Don't try to deceive me! "Zhou Jin Yi's heart was in a mess as her hands unconsciously twisted the handkerchief in her hands.
