Chapter 299: Chapter 299: Song Duidui Goes Online for Business
Upon hearing that Old Lord Song returned to the mansion, Song Ciās first thought was whether to feign an illness, preferably a contagious one, to avoid meeting that doughy face.
But as soon as the thought emerged, she dismissed it. Joking aside, she, the dignified Old Madam, the Old Lord, didnāt need to pretend to be sick just to avoid some old man, did she?
No need at all, no need at all.
"Back to the mansion, just back, why make such a fuss? Itās not like heās some massive flood or beast." Song Ci forced herself not to care.
Nanny Gong glanced at her. She said she didnāt care at all, but the constipation-like expression sold her out.
Song Ci thought of something and asked, "Did he bring back both concubines?"
"Only Concubine Mei came back, but..." Hong You licked the corner of her lips, timidly glancing at Song Ci.
Song Ciās heart instantly tightened. See, she knew nothing good would come from that doughy faceās return; there must be some trickery.
"Go on, Iāll find out sooner or later."
Only then did Hong You say, "Old Lord Song also brought back a woman with the last name Shui, claiming sheās the new concubine."
Song Ciās scalp tingled. Damn, this old thing truly falls for any woman he seesāwhat a lecher!
Hongtao walked in from outside and said, "Madam, Old Lord is here."
Song Ciās eyelid twitched as she sat up straight, watching the doughy face walk in behind Hongtao.
Well, well, in just two or three months, the doughy face had swelled into a big bun. Look at that chubby face, that big bellyāAmitabha indeed.
"You old woman, the man returns, donāt you know to at least greet him?" Old Lord Song huffed as he saw Song Ci sitting on the Arhat bed without moving.
Song Ci: "Are you the Jade Emperor? Why should I greet you? Without a greeting, youāre still able to walk in, arenāt you? You say youāve been enjoying yourself outside, why come back here?" It just obstructs the view.
"This is my house; I come back as I please. Do I need your permission?" Old Lord Song grew displeased at seeing her disgusted expression.
After that illness, the old woman acted like she was possessed, showing no favor to him, always countering his words. Hmph, all those previous niceties were just a facade; now the foxās tail has been exposed.
Song Ci sneered, "Your house? Come and go as you please, huh. This house is actually a hostel to you."
"You!" Old Lord Song glared in silence, turned his head, and said, "I wonāt bicker with you, speaking nonsense wastes breath."
Song Ci thought, āAs if anyone wants to talk to you, just get lost quickly.ā
Seeing her lack of response, Old Lord Song coughed and said, "Well, Concubine Zhou has been sent away by me."
Song Ci: "Concubine Zhou should thank your ancestors for eighteen generations."
That charming, delightful, and beautiful young girl, throwing herself at your old fat self, what a waste.
Old Lord Song: "..."
Clearly a jab! Infuriating enough to make him want to explode!
"Sheās gone, so I lack someone to serve me, so I brought back a replacement. Surely you can allow me to take concubines if not a second wife? Thereās an outside sister, just have her pour you a cup of tea, and sheāll be family. Go, bring in Concubine Shui to kowtow to Madam."
Here it comes!
"Donāt go!" Song Ci glared at Hongtao, then turned to Old Lord Song with a sneer, "Sister? I was a child bride of the Song Family, with no family of my own. Where did this sister come from, sprung from a rock? Family, my foot, sheās in league with ghosts."
Old Lord Song couldnāt help jumping up with hands on his hips, "What do you want? Iām not taking a second wife! I still canāt take concubines? Youāre being jealous, one of the seven outs!"
