Chapter 1517
Jing Qin’s words were spoken very bluntly.
Zhu Tingting’s face lost all its blood on the spot.
She stood right behind this man, as if a pot of cold water had suddenly poured down from her head after all her courage and hope had been doused, she stared at him and once again her whole face turned greyish white.
“But even so, can’t we just have a good life together?”
Undeterred, she pleaded once more.
But the man, however, had an even more amused smile on his lips.
“Are you dreaming? Or have you been screwed out of your mind by those extremes?”
“I’m not, I’m speaking from my heart, Zi Lan, I know you don’t like me and I know I don’t deserve you, but don’t you need a family? If you want to gain a foothold in this capital, if you want to bring your Jing family back to prominence, you always have to marry a woman, don’t you? Then who isn’t marrying?”
Zhu Tingting suddenly found herself calming down.
Probably because, after her heart died, she had no hope, but instead she was indifferent to everything, a completely open-minded posture, which made her more calm and wise than ever before.
Jing Qin froze.
He seemed …… to have really not thought about this.
Yes, if he was to really grow the Jing family in the future and return to its former glory, wouldn’t he need a complete family?
And his relationship, this lifetime should be impossible ……
“Zilan, don’t worry, after I stay here, we’ll get along as partners, I don’t want to marry around again, and you, surely, don’t want to spend so much time marrying a second woman again either do you?”
“So, we can come to an agreement, out there we are husband and wife, but at home, we will just be partners and friends, not bothering or interfering with each other, wouldn’t that be better for you?”
Jutting spoke again.
And this time, because she had completely taken the initiative, she started to become more a*sertive, and every word, after coming out of her mouth, could almost poke into this man’s heart.
This Miss Zhu, in fact, wasn’t stupid at all.
Jing Qin had really moved on after all.
After that, until he went back to his bedroom and closed the door behind him, he didn’t make a sound.
But when Zhu Tingting saw it, she let out a breath of relief, and after her body went limp, she almost didn’t fall down in the corridor.
This actually meant that the man had agreed.
Zhu Tingting finally showed a smile too.
That night, she went back to her room and also slept well for the first time in months.
The next day.
Jing Qin still left the Jing family very early.
After accepting the Zhu family’s business, he had started to launder the Jing family’s a*sets, so he was naturally very busy every day.
Zhu Tingting also knew that, so she was calm when she got up and saw that the man was no longer at home.
However, when she came down from upstairs, she saw the three women from the Jing family waiting for food downstairs again, while in the kitchen, there was only the maid she had hired back a few days ago who was busy non-stop.
She came straight down and stood in front of the women.
“Zhu Tingting, what are you doing standing in front of me? Can’t you see I’m watching TV? Not going to make breakfast, coming to find bad luck early in the morning?”
Jing Yulan saw it and immediately scolded.
Jing Yuqiong was busy playing with her phone and didn’t make a sound, but Jing’s mother was following suit over there with a cloth look.
Zhu Tingting then looked on coldly.
“Third sister, I’m only afraid that I’ve really come to seek your bad luck, I’ve already talked to your brother last night, from today onwards, I’ll really be in charge of this Jing family.”
“What did you say?”
The moment these words were spoken, this living room, on the spot, exploded.
“You’re in charge? Who are you to be in charge? My mum is still here, who are you to qualify everyone?”
“That’s right, Zhu Tingting, have you forgotten your status? You’re a new daughter-in-law who just got married and you want to be in charge of the family? Aren’t you giving yourself too much face?”
Jing Yuqiong also began to scold, her face full of disdain and anger.
Jing’s mother, needless to say, had an old, ironic look on her face, as if she wanted to tear this daughter-in-law apart.
When Zhu Tingting saw this, she still didn’t move with anger, however, she was no longer the same as she used to be when she was obedient in front of them, but just stood there looking expressionless.
“It is precisely because I have not forgotten my status as the daughter-in-law of the Jing family that I have taken on this burden, to gain a foothold in the capital, it is not just a matter of eating and drinking at home all day long, look at you two, you are not young, but nowadays, as long as there are people with a little family background out there, have you seen them come to the door to propose marriage?”
“You-”
These words stepped on the sore spot of these two Jing family ladies, and immediately, they became very irritated.
But Zhu Tingting didn’t stop.
She seemed to have made up her mind this morning to start officially straightening out this family that was riddled with holes.
“So, from now on, I’ve set the rules, both of you, second and third sisters, can’t stay at home anymore, go and do whatever you need to do, the Jing family won’t keep idle people anymore.”
Chapter 1518
“Zhu Tingting, who are you calling an idle person? This is the Jing family, not your Zhu family!!!”
Jing Yu Lan cursed out.
Zhu Tingting then sneered, “Yes, this is the Jing family, but if you like seeing me here, fine, the two of us, Jing Qin and I, will go and buy a house outside to live in, and this place will be left to you.”
“……”
“However, in the future, the food and clothing here, we will not give anymore, in terms of age, I am younger than all of you, but I still know that I have to earn money with my own hands, and what will you do? Waiting for Jingqin to give you a pension? I’m sorry, but Jingqin and I will have children in the future, and my parents, and we’re too burdened to support two young people who are fully equipped with their hands and feet!”
She stared at the two women very coldly and spelled out her final decision.
In fact, all had given them face, otherwise, she would have just said waste.
Sure enough, once these words were said, these two women became even angrier, and they stared over with hatred, that look, they just wanted to tear Zhu Tingting all to pieces.
However, they didn’t dare.
Because just now Zhu Tingting had left her words there.
If they didn’t do it, they would die of hunger!
Half an hour later, Jing Yuqiong, who hadn’t even eaten breakfast, eventually snapped and went out, ready to find something to do.
Jing Yulan, on the other hand, still didn’t want to go.
At this point, Zhu Tingting spoke up again, “Third sister, in fact, you are the one who should least stay in the Jing family, that thing you did last time, if it was Dad who was around, he would have drawn a line in the sand with you and kicked you out of the house, I don’t understand why you are still living so righteously in the Jing family?”
“！！！！”
For a second, all of the woman’s blood rushed to the top of her head.
“Zhu Tingting, I’ll get you to death!!!”
“You can, but your remember, if you get me killed, not only my parents won’t let you off, Jing Qin won’t either, so you end up being prepared to be homeless after you get me killed!”
The woman with cold, stern eyes, the corners of her mouth slashed as she stared at this trash who couldn’t even be called a trash with another sneer.
Jing Yu Lan: “……”
With just that one sentence, this woman’s face, finally, went completely grey.
Truthfully, if she were to fight with this Zhu Tingting, it really wasn’t even enough for her to have a finger.
Because, although the other person Zhu Tingting had an average appearance, she was in the Zhu family, and was definitely not the kind of waste that only knew how to eat her parents, on the contrary, because she only knew that she did not have the capital that was her looks.
She lives a little harder than any rich girl.
She hoped that in the future, when her looks were not enough, she could use her talent and ability to live a good life.
So that morning, the two women of the Jing family were finally driven out by her, Zhu Tingting, to look for work, and Jing’s mother, faced with this, simply dared not speak out in anger.
When the news reached the hospital, Huo Si Xing was very shocked when he heard about it.
“Is Zhu Tingting really that capable?”
“Yes, isn’t Tianbao very close to her, the two are often in touch, and then today she told her about it herself, and said that when she called, she had been incoherent, it seems that she also mustered up a lot of courage, and was scared afterwards.”
He Xiuying saw that she didn’t believe her, so she said with a smile while serving her soup next to her.
Hearing that, Huo Si Xing pictured in her mind the woman who didn’t even dare to speak too loudly in front of her, berating those two women in the Jing household, and couldn’t help but laugh a little too.
Indeed, it was difficult for her.
“But, you don’t say, this will make things a lot better on the Jing family’s side.”
“Of course, those two women, the whole capital knows well, they’re delicious, lazy and bad-tempered, just look at all these years and no one has proposed marriage to them.”
He Xiuying spat back.
The two were chatting idly in the ward when outside, suddenly Zhu Tingting also came over with some tonic products.
“Young Madam, good morning.”
“Good morning!”
Huo Si Xing saw her and his eyes also lit up.
“You’ve come over, why are you still carrying things?”
“Well, these are some wolfberries and sand ginseng grown on my grandmother’s side, they’re all very good herbs, Young Madam’s fetal position is unstable right now and it’s not advisable to take a lot of tonic, these will allow you to replenish your qi without being very medicinal, it’s very suitable for you to eat.”
She was still very coy.
After handing over the things she had brought over, she introduced them with a little embarra*sment.
Chinese medicine, Huo Si Xing did not understand, but when she took a glance at the thing that was brought, it was not the kind of exquisitely packaged box on the outside, but just a simple food bag in which it was packed.
Inside, you can see the fullness and shine of the pellets through the film paper.
She then knew that it was a very heartfelt gift.
“Thank you, Mrs. Jing, you’ve got a lot of heart.”
“No, no.” Zhu Tingting was complimented and stood there blushing again, looking at He Xiuying next to her with a smile on her face.
After chatting for a while longer, it was a*sumed that the man would leave.
However, until He Xiuying had returned from going outside to fetch water, she found this Miss Zhu still sitting here.
“Mrs. Jing, will you be doing anything this time? If not, I’ll go back to the Red Hall, there’s still soup in the stew pot without turning off the heat.”
“Yes you can, Aunt Xiuying, you go back, I’ll stay here with the young lady.”
