âPa!â
Suddenly, a crisp voice came from the kitchen, disturbing the people sitting outside.
The sound came from the kitchen. Everyone in the living room knew that Ma Shan had said that she was going to the kitchen to cook.
âWhatâs going on?â
Old master Zheng turned to the kitchen and asked loudly.
He looked at Joes nervously and asked her in a gentle voice if she had been frightened.
âGrandpa, Iâm fine. You donât have to worry.â
Hearing old man Zhengâs concern, Jossi immediately said,â
Seeing this, the old man was relieved.
At this moment, a voice came from the kitchen.âIâm sorry, dad. Itâs all my fault. I saw that the plate was a little dirty. Sisi is still pregnant. No matter what, Iâm still the grandmother of this child. I canât let sisi eat something dirty, right?â
Ma Shan walked out of the kitchen and took out a tissue to wipe her hands, trying to smooth things over.
What else could she say other than using the child in Joes âstomach?
Was she supposed to tell the old man the truth and tell him that she was pretending to cook because she felt guilty for her son, but in fact, she was hiding in the kitchen and washing the dishes. Then, she happened to hear their conversation and was worried that her sonâs dirty deeds would be investigated, so her hand slipped and broke the bowl?
No!
What Zheng Zeyi said just now was only what would happen in the future. It had not happened yet.
How could he lay down his arms and surrender when the other party had yet to show their evidence and weapons?
As she thought about it, Ma Shan realized that she had already made up her mind, so she used the excuse she had just given to avoid the old man.
Old master Zheng did not like Ma Shan to begin with. After hearing her explanation, he was even more dissatisfied with her.âLook at you, youâre always so clumsy in everything you do! It wasnât easy for Zeyi and sisi to come back for a meal, and you did such a thing. No wonder Zeyu was educated by you to this extent! AI!â
Old master Zheng looked at Ma Shan and scolded her.
At the end of his sentence, the old man sighed heavily, his face full of disappointment.
Ma Shan didnât say anything as she listened to her grandfatherâs scolding. She lowered her head and let the old man scold her.
In fact, it was true.
Since the old man was willing to scold her, it must be because he believed her words.
Since that was the case, she did not lose out in this scolding!
However, she didnât know that her obedience had attracted the attention of another person.
It was hard for Ma Shan to not attract Zheng Zeyiâs attention.
To be honest, even though Zheng Zeyi had never liked Ma Shan, he still understood her.
If it was in the past, Ma Shan would definitely try her best to explain the reason for the bowl smashing and push the responsibility to her.
There was only one reason for Ma Shanâs abnormal behavior. She was feeling guilty!
There was only one thing that could make her feel guilty. Her biological son, Zheng Zeyu, was the assassin who had appeared in the hospital that night!
At the thought of this, Zheng Zeyi looked up at Joes. Coincidentally, Joes also looked up at Zheng Zeyi. Now, the tacit understanding between the two of them had reached the point where they could communicate with their eyes.
After a brief eye contact, Qiao sisi nodded at Zheng Zeyi almost imperceptibly. Finally, she looked at the old man and said,âalright, grandfather, I believe that Auntie didnât do it on purpose. Actually, according to seniority, I should be the one to help out in the kitchen. Itâs all my fault. I couldnât really understand what you were talking about with Zeyi just now. Auntie, Iâll go to the kitchen and help you clear the debris, okay?â
âThe broken pieces of the bowls and chopsticks are the hardest to clean up. It would be bad if they accidentally hurt someone if they didnât clean up properly.â
After that, Joes looked at Ma Shan and added.
âSisi, your body ...â
âGrandpa, donât worry. Iâm fine.â
âGrandpa, sheâs too free these days. Just let her be.â
Jossi and Zheng ze spoke one after another when they saw the old manâs worried face.
âAlright, then you must be careful and pay attention to your safety.â
Seeing that Joes was insistent, the old man finally compromised.
âAlright, donât worry.â
Joes patiently promised the old man once more before taking the initiative to head to the kitchen.
Since the pregnant woman, Joes, had already gone to the kitchen, Ma Shan would be too insensible if she were to continue standing there. The moment Joes turned around, Ma Shan followed closely behind.
âSisi, I just heard from Zeyi that the destroyed surveillance equipment has been repaired. Is this true?â
Ma Shan could not help but ask the moment they entered the kitchen.
âOf course itâs true. Who would dare to lie to grandfather about this kind of thing?â
Joes raised her head and looked at Ma Shan. After giving an affirmative answer, she gave her a question mark.
âAiyo!â
Another scream was heard. This time, it was Ma Shan.
âAuntie, whatâs wrong? Did a glass fragment cut your hand? Was the wound deep? Get up and stop cleaning up, Iâll help you treat your wound. â
House guard Ma Shanâs every move was observed by Joes, but she acted as if she did not know anything. Her face was filled with shock and worry, and the words she said were extremely sincere, making it impossible for anyone to find any fault with her.
With that, Joes immediately asked the maid to bring some alcohol cotton swabs and band-aids.
âYou still have the cheek to call yourself an elder? look at you, youâve turned yourself into this just by preparing dinner. I really donât know what kind of immoral things my Zheng ancestors did to have a wife like you. If youâre just a little better, Iâll be satisfied!â
Old master Zheng was already angry but had nowhere to vent his anger. Now that he saw Ma Shanâs clumsiness, he was even more furious!
After saying that, old master Zheng slammed the cup in his hand on the coffee table, his face red with anger.
âDad, no matter what, Iâm a victim. I donât want to get hurt. Itâs been so many years. Canât you see how good I am? canât you ...â
âGrandpa, I donât think aunty would want this to happen either. Itâs probably because sheâs been worried about Zeyu these past few days and is a little tired. Thatâs why sheâs in a daze and absent-minded for a moment, resulting in her current state. Please donât blame her anymore.â
âAuntie, since youâre not in a good mood today, why donât you go to the living room and rest for a while? Iâll prepare dinner for you.â
Joes consoled the angry old man while comforting Ma Shanâs emotions.
After her adjustment, both the old master and Ma Shan were better.
After Ma Shan left, the dinner was naturally prepared by joesse.
After listening to Qiao sisiâs words, the old man was extremely happy. He could not help but compare Qiao sisi with Ma Shan, using Ma Shan to complement Qiao sisiâs good side.
