Chapter 35: Counterattack
[Ran^Text^Library] There was a distance from the front hall to Gu Xinyue's courtyard, and there were many servants on the road, and when they saw the two of them appear, some people showed a look of surprise.
Glancing at the eaves of the Lingtai Courtyard that could be seen from afar, Gu Xinyue seemed to say casually: "Brother, why are they locking me up?" β
Yesterday, I heard Gu Liulang's words and knew that it was not good, and sure enough, it didn't take long for Mama Chen to find out, and when she returned to the courtyard, she found that the courtyard door was buckled back, and there were many strong and powerful mothers-in-law inside and outside the courtyard.
Although those people didn't make further moves, but looking at Mama Chen's gloomy eyes, she also knew that the situation was very bad, and she alone couldn't fight against those mothers-in-law at all, but this morning, seeing that she didn't even have food delivered to her, she became furious, but not long after she started, Gu Mohan turned over from the wall.
Then he led her straight to the antechamber.
Gu Mohan was stunned for a moment and glanced down at her.
Gu Xinyue looked at him innocently with apricot eyes open.
Gu Mohan touched his nose unconsciously, remembering that when he climbed over the wall, this little girl had already picked up the broom in the yard and beat people, and the fierce appearance of that small body with teeth and claws almost made him fall directly from the wall.
However, although the girl was fierce, those mothers-in-law did not look like they had any scruples and kept their hands at all.
If he hadn't jumped down in time, those mothers-in-law would ......
This little girl, I didn't expect to have such blood, then, is there something to let her know, after all, even if she can keep people, but he is not there, she has to deal with some things by herself.
After thinking for a while, Gu Mohan said: "Father prepared a rich dowry for you, including 30,000 taels of silver, and the steward sent it back to the house yesterday." β
"Thirty thousand taels?" Gu Xinyue's eyes widened, and she suddenly understood, and said, "The 30,000 taels, are we going to come back?" β
Gu Mohan rubbed her head and said softly, "Money is nothing but things outside the body." β
Gu Xinyue nodded, but her brows were still furrowed unwillingly, and she glanced gloomily at the main courtyard.
It doesn't matter, I'll let you swallow it today, and one day, I'll let you spit it out with interest!
It won't be long!
"By the way, brother, the person said before, are we going to your Zhuangzi?" Retracting her gaze, Gu Xinyue was naΓ―ve again.
"Well, that Zhuangzi is at the foot of Lingshan Mountain by the Wuzhang River, with 500 acres of land." After a slight pause, Gu Mohan took Gu Xinyue's hand, stopped, and said lightly: "The location there is a little remote, but I heard that the scenery is very good." β
At the gate of the courtyard, more than a dozen stout women stood in a semi-encircled manner, although their hands were a little shaky, but the guy holding them was facing the two of them.
Gu Xinyue raised her head and smiled at Gu Mohan, and said, "Well, I like it." β
"Sixth girl, the old lady wants you to go to the upper room." Before Gu Mohan could speak, Mama Chen shouted loudly.
Gu Mohan looked at the ropes and other objects in the hands of those mothers-in-law for a while, and said coldly: "What are you doing here?" If you commit any of the following crimes, I will kill you on the spot. β
"Fifth Young Master, we are on the order of the old lady, and the sixth girl disobeys the elders and asks them to go to the nunnery to reflect."
The voice paused slightly, looking at Gu Mohan, who looked colder and colder in front of him, Mama Chen said stubbornly: "Fifth Young Master, don't you even listen to the words of the old lady!" β
said that someone came to preach the holy decree, so the old lady ordered her to lock Gu Xinyue in the nunnery, and starved her for a few days, but when she arrived here, she saw a courtyard of stunned mothers-in-law and maids.
Gu Xinyue had already been taken away by Gu Mohan.
I don't know what to do, but I'm back!
"Old lady......" Gu Mohan read softly, and glanced down at Gu Xinyue.
Gu Xinyue's eyes blinked, and she smiled like a flower at his gaze, and said, "Brother, I'm the county lord, right?" β
Gu Mohan was stunned and nodded.
Pinched Gu Mohan's palm, Gu Xinyue let go of Gu Mohan's hand, walked up to Mama Chen with a smile, and said, "You want to arrest me and go to the nunnery, and then starve me to death?" β
"Sixth girl, how can you be so ......" Mama Chen's face sank, she scolded loudly, and only halfway through her words, a bright smile bloomed on the face of the little girl in front of the meeting, and then she stood on tiptoe.
With a snap, a slap slapped Mama Chen's lowered face.
After a few days of good birth, Gu Xinyue's body did not grow much, but her strength still recovered a little, and she used her skill, and she pumped at the root of Mama Chen's cheek.
The pain made Mama Chen stunned for a while, and stars appeared in front of her.
"Sixth girl, you actually!" Covering her face, Mama Chen shouted, "Quick, catch her!" The old lady said, it doesn't matter if such a disobedient person is killed! β
"It's okay to die?" Shaking his hand, which was also a little painful, and smiling coldly, Gu Xinyue snatched a bamboo strip from a stunned mother-in-law next to her, and pulled it at Mama Chen.
Anyway, Gu Mohan was also seen by Gu Mohan when she beat people with a broom before, and Gu Xinyue had no scruples, and the sharp and thin bamboo strips slammed into the mothers-in-law who wanted to catch her with fierce expressions.
The bamboo strips are soaked in oil, and if the strength is used skillfully, it can be directly injured in the flesh without leaving a trace, Gu Xinyue's strength is used more skillfully than those mothers-in-law, and when it is smoked, it is a pig-like cry.
For a while, I saw a petite little girl at the gate of the courtyard holding a bamboo strip in her hand, and whipped those fierce mothers-in-law like ghosts and wolves.
The corners of Gu Mohan's eyes twitched unconsciously, but the corners of his lips were hooked.
Gu Xinyue was young and frail in the end, she just grabbed the opportunity before, and was brought back to her senses by her mother-in-law, and surrounded by many people, she was a little unable to show it.
At this time, a few maids also ran out of the yard, and a few small maids rushed over outside the yard.
Seeing that a mother-in-law was pumping hard and approaching her, her fists were raised high, and Gu Mohan's figure moved.
Gu Mohan unsheathed his sword and walked through those mothers-in-law and girls like a cloud of water, the sword scabbard slammed on the back of their necks, and for those little guys, he directly punched them away.
Gu Xinyue was still thinking that she would be beaten to death first and chased after Mama Chen, turning around.
There was no one behind him, and they all fell to the ground.
Throwing away the bamboo strips, Gu Xinyue clapped her hands and smiled innocently at Gu Mohan.
Glancing at the mothers-in-law and maids who were still lying on the ground, Gu Mohan forcibly suppressed the smile on his face, and said lightly: "You go and clean up, let's go." β
If it weren't for such a reward from the emperor, he would have wanted Gu Xinyue to stay for a few more days so that he could go to Zhuangzi to prepare first, but now it seems that ......
Killing Gu Xinyue means that the title of the county lord is gone, but the bounty and colored satin pearls and jade can be taken over.
Gu Xinyue blinked, her eyes swept to Wen Zhu, who was sitting on the steps in front of the door with her shoulders crossed, her eyes flashed, and she said, "Brother, can we take Wen Zhu away?" β
Gu Mohan pondered for a moment and said, "Her deed is still in the hands of the old lady, I'm just afraid of ......."
"She helped me." Gu Xinyue said in a low voice.
Lowering his head and glancing deeply at Gu Xinyue, Gu Mohan sighed lightly and said, "It's okay, Wenzhu, get up and pack your things, we have to leave the house." β
