Chapter 146 Take care of yourself
  Wei Zhiting was about to speak, looked around, and hesitated: "This is not the place to talk. Let's find another place."
  "It's better to go to my courtyard. This is the closest to the Grand Master's Mansion." Shen Zhuoxi suggested: "My courtyard is remote and people in the mansion generally won't go there."
  "Okay." Wei Zhiting did not refuse and said: "By coincidence, I asked Huarui to buy a lot of snacks, which are new from Hefangzhai. Let's talk while eating."
  When they arrived at Qingfeng Tower, Shen Zhuoxi ordered everyone else to guard outside, leaving her and Wei Zhiting alone in the house.
  Wei Zhiting felt relieved and said, "Thanks to your clever plan, I will perform a good show in front of Hong Rui according to the method you taught me that day."
  "She was on guard at first and refused to believe it, but after many years of serving me, she finally understood my temperament. After gradually letting go of her guard, she actually went to see Lu Shuai."
  "Catching the person will solve all the problems." Shen Zhuoxi comforted: "Your cousin is simply careless and hesitant to bring the matter out."
  "We caught him, but there's a new problem." Wei Zhiting said, "Shuai Lu is a complete bastard. He hid the things."
  "He also said that if it was not good for him, he would simply drag me to death. No matter what, he would not say where the things were. His father was the left prime minister, and Lu Shuai was his nephew, so he couldn't kill him. It was really difficult to handle. .”
  "We can't think of any good tricks, so we thought we'd ask the second lady if there's any way to deal with him?"
  Shen Zhuoxi smiled and said: "Shuai Lu is so threatening, what are you most afraid of?"
  Wei Zhiting thought for a while and asked tentatively: "Death?"
  "Yes." Shen Zhuoxi stood up, took out a package of things from the secret compartment under the dressing table, handed it to Wei Zhiting and said, "To deal with a scoundrel, just be more scoundrel than him."
  "This bag of things is enough to torture him into relenting. Once he hands over everything, he will be kicked out immediately!"
  Wei Zhiting took it and was about to open it when Shen Zhuoxi said, "Don't open it. The medicinal powder inside was made by myself. If you touch it even a little, it will itch unbearably. It will itch into every inch of your skin all the time."
  Wei Zhiting quickly retracted her hand and said hesitantly: "It's so powerful, what if I accidentally touch it when I hit it?"
  "I'll give you the antidote." Shen Zhuoxi rummaged through another bag and took it out, saying, "With your cousin's condition, he probably won't be able to hold it for a few hours."
  Wei Zhiting took it and said: "I am embarrassed to have asked you for help several times. If anything happens in the future, just tell me and I will do my best to repay you."
  "It's too much to say that." Shen Zhuoxi pointed to the snacks on the table and said, "Didn't you say that they are freshly baked and will get cold in a while? I happened to eat too much at noon, so I'll just have some pastries in the evening. "
  "Yes, Hefangzhai's pastries are famous, and they are on par with those from Baihelou." Wei Zhiting pushed a small box towards Shen Zhuoxi and said, "Especially this red date and golden silk cake, it's sweet but not greasy. , it melts in your mouth.”
  The two ate some snacks and talked some more before Wei Zhiting left.
  When Shen Zhuoxi sent her out of the house, she happened to be finishing dinner in front of her, and met Shen Xinyu and Shen Xinjiao.
  Shen Xinyu and Wei Zhiting were not close friends, but they knew each other, so they took the initiative to say hello: "Why are you still here at the Taishi Mansion today, Miss Wei?"
  "Miss Shen," Wei Zhiting said after receiving the greeting, "I'm here to ask the second lady for some tips on making double-sided paintings."
  "Skills?" Shen Xinyu glanced at Shen Zhuoxi and said, "I also asked the second sister about it, but the second sister prevaricates because of her talent. It seems that she doesn't want to tell me."
  The bitterness in his words was obvious.
  Wei Zhiting heard it and smiled and said: "I haven't finished yet. The second lady is indeed talented. She can pick it up easily. I took a look and found that she really can't learn it."
  "I don't blame the second lady. Maybe the eldest lady has no talent like me."
  Shen Xinyu had a smile on her face, but she rolled her eyes in her heart and said to Shen Zhuoxi, "Miss Wei has never set foot in our Grand Master's Mansion. She is here as a guest and it's time for dinner."
  "If you don't bring people out for a meal, it seems like our house didn't do a good job."
  "It's none of the second lady's business. I insisted not to eat it." Wei Zhiting took the lead and said, "Besides, if I didn't come, how would I know that the dignified second lady of Taishi Mansion lived in such a poor condition."
  "Even my aunt doesn't live in such a remote place in our house."
  Shen Xinyu frowned and said, "Second sister volunteered to live there. Could it be that she complained to you to settle the injustice?"
  "Second Miss is not a talkative person." Wei Zhiting smiled again and said, "Miss, it's getting late. I have to go back. Let's talk next time."
  After sending Wei Zhiting away, Shen Xinyu was still standing there. When she saw Shen Zhuoxi, she said coldly: "What did you say to her?"
  They had never interacted with each other in the past, and they had always been friendly when they met. Wei Zhiting was well-educated, and she would never be as sharp-toothed as before.
  Shen Zhuoxi stopped and said calmly: "I didn't say anything. Do you believe it?"
  "I don't believe it." Shen Xinyu narrowed her eyes slightly, took a few steps closer to Shen Zhuoxi, and said, "Wei Zhiting has a calm personality. If you don't tell her, will she keep saying something in her conversation?"
  "Everyone is understanding." Shen Zhuoxi raised his eyes and looked at her: "You are allowed to keep your words in mind and no one is allowed to refute?"
  Although she was slightly shorter, she was no less imposing, especially the coldness in her eyes, which was like ice in this hot weather, and actually made Shen Xinyu's back feel cold!
  Shen Xinyu was speechless for a moment, and then spoke after a moment, her tone already weak: "Is there a problem with what I just said?"
  "Is there a problem that you don't know yourself?" Shen Zhuoxi took half a step away and said, "I'm going back to rest. If you have nothing to do, read more and stop thinking about useless things."
  Shen Xinyu's heart heaved up and down with anger, and when she was about to retort, she happened to see the old lady, Yu Qinglian and Shen Zehuan coming out of the dining room.
  Shen Zhuoxi's back was facing the direction of the dining room. Shen Xinyu swallowed hard and her eyes were red: "Second sister, you are so arrogant now. I can't even blame you because of someone's support."
  "Since you know someone is supporting you, don't provoke me overtly or covertly." Shen Zhuoxi said expressionlessly, "It's better to take care of yourself and don't focus on me."
  The old lady felt that something was wrong between the two of them from a distance, so she walked closer and heard what Shen Zhuoxi said, suspiciously: "What are you two talking about? What support, what are your thoughts?"
  "Grandma." Shen Xinyu suddenly knelt down, tears fell, and said tremblingly: "It's my fault, it's all my fault, I made my second sister angry."
  Shen Zhuoxi stood still and saluted the old lady.
  "Get up quickly." The old lady heard Shen Zhuoxi's words and subconsciously felt that Shen Zhuoxi was wrong, but she still asked: "What happened?"
  "Miss Wei came to the house to see the second sister. I saw it, but I said that the second sister didn't know how to treat guests. It was dinner time, but she didn't let Miss Wei come to have dinner." Shen Xinyu wiped her tears. , the eyes are redder.
  "I didn't say anything too harsh. The second sister put a gun and a stick and told me to mind my own business. I was the one who talked too much and made the second sister unhappy. Please ask my grandmother to punish me."
