Chapter 15 Stratagem
Langhua pretended to think about it and made up his mind, "I like the bee candy cake you made, so you can stay in my yard in the future!"
Mother Xiao looked a little surprised, and hurriedly saluted, "The slave maid is just doing chores in the big kitchen." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
Langhua shook his head, "That's okay. β
Ah Mo brought Jiang's mother here, and heard that Langhua wanted to keep someone by her side, Jiang's mother was helpless, everyone knew that the old lady doted on the eldest lady, she wanted stars, and the old lady would never give the moon, not to mention that she was just a subordinate, so she had to agree, "The slave went to talk to the old lady." β
Langhua smiled and left Xiao's mother to speak, Xiao's mother began to be a little restrained, but soon relaxed, and after many years of getting along, Langhua knows Xiao's mother's speaking habits very well, and the two of them are talking, Langhua always has the feeling of going back to the past.
When it was time to turn on the lamp, Xiao's mother turned on the oil lamp in the room, turned her head to look at Miss Gu, the eight-year-old girl sat on the kang, her little face seemed to be covered with a layer of golden light, and her immature eyebrows and eyes showed a little stability, not like a child who only knew noisy and noisy, she had heard that children who were born with serious illnesses would grow up a lot, maybe Miss Gu was like this.
Mother Xiao didn't expect that Miss Gu would keep her by her side, until now her heart was still beating faster, her hands and feet were cold, and she was like in a dream.
It has been her wish for many years to be able to serve by the eldest lady's side, but it's a pity that she has been working outside and has not been appreciated by the old lady and the second wife.
When she saw Miss Gu, she thought of the deceased eldest lord, the Xiao family had received the favor of the eldest lord, she was sick that year, Xiao Yi and his father were anxious, hunting to sell, the official patrolling the street checked the wound of the prey, determined that it was injured by an iron weapon, and put Xiao Yi and his father in prison for the crime of possessing weapons privately.
Possession of weapons is a capital crime, and the eldest master dredged up and down to save Xiao Yi and his father from prison, and for this reason, he also recruited a general investigation for the Gu family Zhuangzi. Their family brought trouble to the main family, Xiao Yi and his father couldn't wait to die, but the eldest master did not blame him, and brought Lang Zhong to see a doctor for her.
Such a master's family, it is her blessing to meet in this life, if she can serve the eldest lady by her side, it will really open her eyes and give her the opportunity to repay this kindness.
Mother Xiao asked tentatively, "The slave listens to everyone's discussion...... The fake nun is here to harm the eyes of the eldest lady?"
Langhua felt that she was right to find Xiao's mother, and before she mentioned the matter during the day, Xiao's mother had already asked like this.
Lang Hua told Master Jing about her trying to blind her with a needle.
An angry expression gradually appeared on Xiao's mother's face, "Thanks to Miss, she didn't hurt ...... That must not spare the false nun...... Those people are full of lies, and everything they say is a lie. β
Lang Hua said: "It's a pity, I don't know who bought the nun." β
Mother Xiao knew that she shouldn't say this in front of the eldest lady, but she didn't want to watch Gu Chun's daughter-in-law being wronged, but somehow, she didn't treat the young lady as an eight-year-old child from the bottom of her heart.
Mother Xiao pursed her lips, "Miss, I don't know if I should say something." β
Langhua looked over.
Mother Xiao found the courage to continue speaking in Langhua's firm gaze, "Gu Chun's family doesn't have the courage to harm their master, we all live on the same street, we move around a lot on weekdays, and we understand each other's temperaments, as for Mother Lu, it would be much easier if she came to do this." β
Xiao's mother thought of going with her.
As he was talking, Ah Mo walked into the house quickly, carrying a food box in his hand, "Miss, get it back." β
Langhua nodded, this is the food box she asked Amo to send to the firewood room for Master Jing Ming and the others.
Langhua jumped off the kang, and she wanted to check it with her own hands.
The food box was already empty, leaving only an empty plate, Langhua stretched out his hand to turn the plate over, and the gold leaf that was originally attached to the plate was gone.
Amo was a little surprised, "It was really taken away." β
Lang Hua said: "The last thing Master Jing took to eat?"
Ah Mo nodded, "Arjun saw Master Jing take the last piece of blessing cake from the plate. β
Not only the blessed cake, but also the gold leaf.
How dare a person who has no ability to touch the gold leaf.
Only this old nun who often enters the inner house and uses all kinds of tricks to harm people has the courage.
Lu's mother and Gu Chun's daughter-in-law were interrogated, and the old nun must have thought that someone had bought her and kept her tight.
Mother Xiao looked at the food box and then at Miss Gu, she didn't expect Miss Gu to have such a mind.
"Amo," Lang Hua said, "you go and keep an eye on it, as long as there is movement on Master Jing's side, you can tell me." β
After a while, Kung Fu Mo brought the news.
"Master Jing Ming confessed too much, saying that it was Gu Chun's daughter-in-law. β
The show starts now.
Mother Xiao's face was gloomy, and she couldn't help but whisper: "Mother Lu is the second wife's companion, whether it is the second wife or the old lady, she treats her well, how can she do such a thing." β
Langhua also wanted to know which big fish was behind Lu's mother.
Xiao's mother said: "If the young lady's eyes are broken, it is not to die in a hurry for the old lady." β
Langhua chuckled in her heart, yes, she didn't expect this layer yet, if she was blind, her grandmother would be very sad, such a blow would kill her grandmother, so her grandmother would ask the Lu family to be orphaned, and she would simply sell part of the land and divide the family.
On the contrary, if she died, there would naturally be no such thing as entrusting orphans, no matter how much family assets would be left to the third uncle and third aunt, and her half would not be able to be carried into the Lu family logically.
It's not that she doesn't suspect the Lu family, she just doesn't want to believe it.
Now the truth is in front of her, and she wants to uncover it with her own hands.
"Mother Xiao," Langhua looked over, "You and Mother Lu's family also live on the same street?"
Xiao's mother bowed her head, "The Gu family's family lives not far away. β
Mother Xiao didn't know if she had figured out what Miss meant, "Miss is saying that there will be movement on Mother Lu's side." β
Langhua looked out the window, "I'll let them move." β
Xiao's mother said in a low voice: "Miss, don't worry, my son Xiao Yi has been a little maid by the side of the eldest lady, and he has always done things properly, and he will definitely not spoil the eldest lady's affairs." β
Langhua nodded and instructed Amo, "Give me the clothes to go out." β
Xiao's mother was surprised, "Miss still has to go out." β
Yes, she wants to see clearly with her own eyes, she was missing a pair of eyes in her previous life, and she wants to see clearly in this life and this life.
**
Mother Lu watched Master Jing being taken away, and her heart seemed to be raised to her throat.
Master Jing has been doing shady things all year round, so she should not be easily asked the truth, she carefully recalled what happened that night, whether she was seen by Master Jing or not.
Perhaps, it really hasn't been discovered.
Mother Lu was thinking about it, the door suddenly opened, and several mothers-in-law walked in the door and lifted her up, and several hands of the mother-in-law were tightly clamped around her like iron tongs, and her fingers seemed to have sunk into her bones.
Lu's mother wanted to speak, but her mouth was suddenly blocked, and she could only make a "squeak" sound.
She was dragged all the way out of the firewood room, passing by a room, the door of the house happened to be opened, someone brought food in, she couldn't help but glance sideways, and saw Master Jing sitting on a chair twisting Buddhist beads.
Lu's mother's heart suddenly felt like falling into an ice cellar.
