Chapter 147: High-level gossip
"Mrs. Au, are you giving your last words?" Bai Ko, who was supposed to be dumb, suddenly interjected. Rainbow Net, with you all the way!
"What?! No! No! Ou denied it, but his hand unconsciously touched his waist.
Bai Ko waited for her subconscious action, pounced on it, and threw Ou Shi to the ground, covering her mouth with her left hand, and reaching in from the hem of her clothes with her right hand to touch the waistband of her trousers.
Pang's mother reacted quickly, and immediately squatted down and pressed Ou's hand, the third young master had been standing by the door, and when he saw the chaos, he quickly paid attention to the movement outside the door, so as not to attract more people over.
"Found it!"
Bai Ko exhaled softly, holding a small paper bag between his right fingers and raised his arm high, his left hand still covering Ou's mouth.
Pang's mother hurriedly took the paper bag and put it on the shelf on the side.
"Mrs. Ou, the property has not been handed over clearly, you can't die, otherwise the eldest lady will become a sinner who plots to steal her niece's inheritance. The third master is in a critical situation now, he urgently needs money, and he can do anything in the face of a desperate situation, anyway, he is not born to the same mother as the former Guogong, and the face of the Guogong Mansion is ****. But you're different, Miss Hui lives in this back building, and once you die, where did you put our grandfather and wife? Your daughter is important, but our government is not important? Without us, how can the government shelter your daughter? You can only protect your property from falling into their hands if you live well, you kick your legs, Miss Hui is sick and crooked, your in-laws and husband come to ask for the inheritance, can our grandfather and wife still withhold it? They wish you died, if you die, they will naturally receive all your inheritance in its entirety, and when the time comes, they will use it to dredge the joints, and Miss Hui can still get a hair? I'm afraid that in a few days, there will be news that Miss Hui's mother's illness and treatment will be ineffective, and your mother and daughter can be companions in the underworld. ”
Bai Ko said a lot of things with a fierce face, all in order to dispel the idea of Ou's death.
When he heard that he was dead, the inheritance and the child were not guaranteed, Ou couldn't hold back, and his tears were like a flood, and his sideburns were wet in a moment.
Seeing that the person was crying, Bai Ko slowly withdrew his hand.
"Do you still want to die?"
Ou gritted his teeth and shook his head desperately.
Bai Ko helped her to sit up, took off her handkerchief and handed it to her.
"We've been delaying too much, and the girls outside will be curious. Big lady, scold the young master a few words, waste money and buy people or something. ”
The eldest lady's eyes glanced at her son, and her hand slapped the edge of the table, the sound was so loud that it could be heard outside, Gu Yun saw it from the door curtain, and sure enough, she had led the girls over to listen to the corner.
"I spend a little money in my hand, I buy people on the street casually, and I don't know what the origin of this person is without a tooth person as a guarantor."
Gu Yun was in a hurry and came up with a brilliant reason.
"Mother, let her go to the back cover building to take care of the garden and be a rough mother-in-law, so that the people below will complain about the sister waiting."
Ou's eyes lit up instantly, and the spiritual head came immediately.
Bai Ko also gave the third young master two thumbs up with sincere admiration.
Pang's mother immediately chimed in.
The eldest lady also borrowed the slope to get off the donkey and pushed the box on the table to the Ou family.
"It's okay, there is only her girl Shuizhen waiting by Hui'er's side, and the child is afraid of people, so it will be easy to have a mother-in-law to take care of her, so I will lead her over."
Pang's mother quickly rewrapped the box and returned it to Ou's, who wiped away her tears and kowtowed three times, got up and went out with Pang's mother, and handed her over to other servants to take to the back.
The eldest lady rubbed the corners of her forehead, feeling a little tired.
"If this matter is not handled well, our family will be affected."
"Wait for my father to come back and discuss it with him, our house is the patriarch, and we can't be led by their nose, and when it's really time to tear their faces, they will make their family's broken affairs public, directly cut off their official positions, deprive them of their fame, and demote them to concubines, and three generations of descendants are not allowed to participate in the imperial examination."
"How much hatred, using this trick of the last way?" The eldest lady glanced at her son, "Okay, I will discuss this matter with your father slowly, you go back and rest." ”
Gu Yun bowed and retired, and took Bai Ko away by the way.
Pang's mother offered some slightly cold tea to her wife to moisten her throat.
"That girl is more decisive than you were when you were younger." The eldest lady put down the tea bowl and looked at the loyal servant who had accompanied her until she was old and smiled.
"My brain is spinning fast, and I was really stunned to hear those words."
"But she's right, if you want Ei'er to be safe, she must live well, otherwise it will be difficult for us to preserve her inheritance."
"I believe she shouldn't be looking for death again."
"In order to cover up the disappearance of the Ou family, their family will definitely not dare to make a noise, but they can't hide it for a long time, they are bound to make a show, and then we will watch the play quietly."
Mother Pang pursed her lips and smiled lightly, picked up the packet of poison on the shelf and withdrew to deal with it, but she couldn't let this thing hurt the innocent.
In the narrow alley in the direction of Wenling Courtyard in Jicheng Hall, only Gu Yun and Bai Ko walked quietly one after the other.
"Why are you at Madame's in the afternoon?"
"The list of items to move the yard has been sorted out, take it to the eldest lady to see, and then you can move things according to the list."
"You've counted them all so quickly?"
"It's been almost two months since the day the decree was announced, and the eldest lady will have an opinion if you don't pay attention to it."
Gu Yun stopped, turned around and reached out to pinch Bai Ko's face.
"As if you're really worried about Madame's blame."
"The slave is just telling the truth."
"I don't believe it." Gu Yun snorted twice, "To be honest." ”
Bai Ko licked her lips and hesitated as if she was embarrassed.
"The day after tomorrow, the tenth day of the seventh month, the birthday of the third lady."
"Tsk!" Gu Yun immediately rolled his eyes.
"Miss Tong San has not responded to the water steamed buns, and the maid does not dare to be optimistic that people are really not taking it seriously, and Miss San's birthday is a good opportunity to show off her skills. In addition, Third Young Master, don't forget, we still have to find time to take Sister Meilun to see Zhao Qi's family. ”
"Who is the family qualified to interview me?"
"So they are begging to marry the first-class girl next to the prince, you come forward to show that you attach importance to this matter, and also to support Sister Meilun, so that they know that Sister Meilun is the girl valued by the prince, and in the future, when they want Sister Meilun to come forward to seek errands with the house, they will have a lot of discussion and talk about people. Otherwise, it will be said by idlers that Sister Meilun is a grizzled and dirty suitor. ”
"Fart! What idler dares to say such gossip!? ”
"You haven't heard much of the gossip on the market, Third Young Master, and those scumbags who can't see others better than themselves like to arrange this kind of nonsense."
"Okay, you can discuss with Uncle Yan and pick a day to see each other."
"Yes, Third Young Master."
The two returned to Wenling Courtyard and didn't say anything to the girls, only that the third young master bought a woman who sold herself as a maid on the way home, and when they took it to see the eldest lady, Bai Ko also came back like this.
In the afternoon, the snacks were prepared a long time ago, and after waiting for the young master to rest, Bai Ko went to work on dinner.
As for the old man coming back from the official office in the evening, what the couple discussed was none of Bai Ko's business, she didn't have time to care about such high-level gossip
