"Miss is really good at laughing, this chicken only crows three times. It's not my mother-in-law, I'm getting up late, it's Miss, you're up early today. Mama Qiu asked with a smile: "Where are you going this early in the morning?" ”
"The bird I fed has flown away, I'm going to chase it back!" Gu Chongyang said angrily: "This woman is so bold that she actually stopped me from going out." Mama Qiu, how do you do the housekeeping Mama, when you didn't come before, there was never such a thing in my yard! She's the one you brought, so tell me how to punish her, right? ”
It turns out that you only have this idea, how much ability do I have for you! Deliberately let go of a bird, just take this opportunity to run out, you and I are stupid?
Mama Qiu smiled coldly and said, "Oh, my miss, didn't I make it clear to you yesterday, you will move to the old lady's Anrong Courtyard early this morning, and you can't go anywhere before you go to An Rong Courtyard." ”
"Why?" Gu Chongyang was furious: "Who gave you the guts to dare to restrict my freedom, I want to go out today." ”
She strode forward, pushed away the mother-in-law who was guarding the door, and was about to rush out.
"Fourth Miss, you can't go out!"
Mama Qiu was shocked, she didn't expect Gu Chongyang to come hard, this fourth lady used to be delicate, since the death of Mrs. Qiu, she has become more and more fierce day by day. If she really let her break out, wouldn't it be a big deal?
Without thinking about it, she grabbed Gu Chongyang's arm: "Fourth Miss, if you are disobedient, don't blame my mother-in-law for turning my face and not recognizing people." ”
After speaking, she shouted in surprise like a chicken about to face a head-killing chicken: "Someone, come on, hurry up and stop the fourth lady." ”
Unexpectedly, Gu Chongyang suddenly quieted her down, she looked at Mama Qiu, sneered, and turned back to the room.
Mama Qiu was stunned for a moment, and then said disdainfully: "Count you as acquaintances!" ”
And Gu Chongyang clenched his fists angrily, it seems that this time, the fourth master is determined to hand himself over to the old lady.
Fortunately, she had already made arrangements, otherwise I am afraid that today would be really unlucky.
Not long after she returned to the house, Mama Qiu came: "Fourth Miss, the old lady has already gotten up, come with me to Anrong Courtyard." ”
Lu Wu was busy: "Mama Qiu, Miss's things haven't been packed yet." ”
"Things can be packed up slowly, people have to go first. The first day passed, and the old lady couldn't wait. Mama Qiu said with a sense of ambition: "Fourth Miss, don't blame the mother-in-law, I didn't remind you, you have to pay attention to every move when you arrive at An Rong Courtyard, but you can't be as bold as here." The old lady is not as talkative as the fourth master, and Mama Su is not as kind and soft-hearted as my mother-in-law. If you are disobedient, she has the means to manipulate people. ”
Gu Chongyang knew that Mama Qiu didn't mean to scare her, but everything was true, but she wasn't afraid at all.
The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth. If this is afraid, how can she avenge her mother.
She didn't even look at Mama Qiu, and walked out first.
Mama Qiu snorted coldly and hurriedly followed.
Walking to the gate of the courtyard, Mama Qiu stopped a few of them: "The fourth lady went to the old lady's yard, naturally someone will serve the fourth lady well, and a few of you will stay in the Begonia Pavilion." When the new mistress enters the door, I will arrange a new place for you. ”
The faces of the people changed greatly, and they looked at Gu Chongyang anxiously: "Miss, what should I do?" ”
Gu Chongyang's heart suddenly burst out, and she was secretly startled, she didn't expect things to become so tricky, not only could she not go out, but even the green and the others had to be separated from her.
But things have developed to this point, no matter how anxious she is, she can't solve the problem, she hurriedly grabbed Luwu's hand and said: "Don't worry, I won't go to Aneiyuan for too long, at most three or four days, at least a day or two, I will be back soon." You are my people, and no one else can touch you, I promise. ”
When Mama Qiu heard this, she didn't pout, and she still dared to brag about it!
She will never be able to come up with the freedom of everything as before.
The old lady would never let her out until the new mistress entered the door at the end of the month. What will happen when the new mistress enters the door is another story. However, the new housewife is not easy to get along with, and the stepmother's heart is the sun of June, poisonous and spicy! At that time, the fourth lady may be worse than in the hands of the old lady.
I see how arrogant you are!
She urged sadly: "Fourth Miss, don't delay, let's go." ”
Gu Chongyang nodded at the green and green to reassure them, and then walked towards An Rong Courtyard.
She suddenly stopped and asked, "Mama Qiu, don't you feel sorry at all if you eat inside and out like this, and forget your trust?" ”
Mama Qiu sneered: "People go to high places and water flows to low places, and the same is true for slaves, what do I have to be sorry for?" ”
"Good!" Gu Chongyang said: "Since you say so, that is the day when you believe that I, Gu Chongyang, will never turn over from now on?" ”
"I don't know if you can turn over, I only know that the old lady is in charge now, and the fourth room will be the new housewife in charge in the future, and you are just a dead mother's oil bottle." Mama Qiu narrowed her eyes and looked at Gu Chongyang for a while: "This Gu family, from now on, there will be no place for you to stand." ”
"I, Gu Chongyang, no longer have a status in the Gu family, and it is more than enough to teach you an ungrateful old thing!"
Mama Qiu laughed out loud as if she had heard a big joke: "When death is on the verge of death, she is still so hard-mouthed!" I'm going to see who teaches who first. ”
As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and pinched Gu Chongyang's waist socket stiffly.
Gu Chongyang snorted, his eyes glared at her like ice: "I have written down everything you did to me, the coming day is long, let's watch, who can have the last laugh." I put this here today, if one day your Mama Qiu falls into my hands, don't beg me for mercy, you cut yourself off as soon as possible, I will spare your whole family's life for the sake of obediently going to death. ”
Mama Qiu was so frightened by the cold light in her eyes that she quickly withdrew her hand, Gu Chongyang sneered, and her eyes were full of mockery.
Mama Qiu was annoyed and ashamed, and wanted to do a black hand to her again, but in the end she lacked confidence, so she was so angry that she gritted her teeth secretly: If you want me to die, this time I'm afraid you will die first!
In the midst of Mama Qiu's unwillingness and Gu Chongyang's awe, several people came to Anrong Courtyard.
Mama Qiu ran into the main room first and reported to Mrs. Ge: "Old lady, the mother-in-law has brought the fourth lady over." ”
Old Madam Ge said, "You go down first." Mama Su, let the four girls come in. ”
Hearing her voice, Gu Chongyang's heart wanted to boil a pot of boiling water, and he couldn't calm down when he tossed up and down. This old pious woman, when her mother was alive, she repeatedly bullied her mother, she also raised a beast, and the beast came out to harm people, and finally charged her mother with having an affair with someone.
The innocent person of the mother died, but she, the damned person, was clothed and fed, prosperous and rich, why!
Gu Chongyang hated it so much, but he couldn't hold back the tumbling blood in his heart, and walked in and kowtowed to her.
If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan.
She can't be impulsive! Be sure to endure. She couldn't help but let herself suffer It didn't matter, but her mother's revenge hadn't been avenged, and the green green Zhidanxin was still waiting for her to go back in Haitang Courtyard.
Gu Chongyang lowered his head and suppressed the anger in his heart.
Old Madam Ge's angry voice came from the top of her head: "It's not enough for a second girl to break into a catastrophe, you actually follow the nonsense, at a young age, you actually did something to disobey your father and slander your elders, I underestimated you!" ”
People are under the eaves and have to bow their heads. Gu Chongyang knew that this was not the time for herself, and the only thing she could do now was to endure.
"The wife and the husband have few disasters, and the son is filial to the father, just because he married the daughter of the Shen family, a merchant who has no rules and etiquette, the fourth master will have everything unsatisfactory and his career will fail, and our Gu family will raise a rebellious daughter like you who disobeys her father and is bold. You are now as big as a day, if you come by nonsense, who knows what kind of trouble you will cause in the future? This Anrong Yuan can't tolerate people who have no rules and no respect for their elders, and I don't like the Shen family to indulge you in everything. From today, you should follow the grandmothers to learn the rules, but if there is a little disobedience, the family law will serve! ”
Gu Chongyang's heart couldn't help jumping, and the hand on his leg clenched tightly into a fist. This should be a warning, if she is disobedient, Old Madam Ge will not hesitate to beat her at home. She didn't dare to raise her head more and more, and told her that she must endure today.
Gu Chongyang knelt at the bottom, although he lowered his eyebrows but couldn't hide his beautiful face, Old Madam Ge remembered that if it weren't for the fourth lady's reluctance to go to Tantuo Temple to offer incense, how could the third child commit such a wrong thing? How could she retreat step by step and let the fourth climb up?
Poor boss, dignified Qingyang Marquis, lived in the wind and sand of the frontier every day when he was alive, and lost the grief of the Hou Ye when he died, and was buried as a child of an ordinary family.
But the eldest grandson Gu Zhengrong was still young, and when the Hao family was the housekeeper, she deliberately suppressed and prevented the eldest from establishing a son early in order to prevent the Hao family from climbing on her head. If you can set up a son as soon as possible, with the words of Danshu Iron Coupon and Concubine Hui, why worry about the title not falling on Brother Rong'er.
It's a pity that the position of the son of the world has not been decided, and the old man in the long house promised to help, but in fact he did not move. Who knows if she wants to take the title back, so that Brother Rui'er's half-dead sick son can inherit the title?
The more Old Madam Ge thought about it, the more angry she became, and the more she looked at Chongyang, the more unpleasant she became.
"In the past, you were bold and reckless in your nonsense, but I will not care about you for the sake of your youth and ignorance." Old Madam Ge's two eyes glared at Gu Chongyang like sharp swords, and her tone was full of coercion and coercion: "But you must understand that things can be eaten indiscriminately, but words cannot be said indiscriminately. If you eat the wrong thing, you will get sick at most, and if you say the wrong thing, you may not be able to save your life. ”
When Gu Chongyang came in to ask for peace, Mama Su, who used to be quick-eyed, did not put the futon as quickly as before this time. There was no shelter on the ground, Gu Chongyang just knelt on the ground and listened to Old Madam Ge's lecture, she felt that her knees were cold and painful.
In the early morning of spring, the morning sun shines in from the door, and the air is filled with the fragrance of fragrant grass, mixed with the fragrance of maid's fat powder, fresh with a bit of sweet taste.
Old Madam Ge's lecture never ended, and Gu Chongyang kept kneeling on the ground.
Her back was straight, and she didn't dare to relax at all.
The bluestone bricks shone brightly, and the stinging pain in her legs hit again and again, but it couldn't withstand the coldness in her heart.
At this moment, she suddenly understood something, although she was unwilling, but she also had to admit that at the moment, people are swords and I am fish and meat, and the situation is very unfavorable.
She had to leave the Gu family, otherwise not to mention avenging her mother, even she herself might be folded in An Rong Yuan.
How to leave the Gu family, she has already planned, she is sure, soon today, late tomorrow, someone will come to pick her out.
can hide for a while, but can't hide for a lifetime. She is the young lady of the Gu family, and she can't hide in someone else's house forever. She can go to her uncle's house in Nanjing, but in this case, who will avenge her mother?
She must think of a foolproof way to take revenge without being restricted by the Gu family.
But how?
"Old lady, the family law is ready, are you going to invite the ladies and ladies to come to see the family law?"
"Hmm." Old Madam Ge nodded and said, "The long house also sent someone to invite." In the past, you didn't understand the rules, but today, I will let you have a good look at the Gu family's family law, and you can also know what you can and can't say as a young lady of the Gu family. ”
The last eerie and threatening sentence was said to Gu Chongyang.
The place where the second lady and Gu Chongzhu received the family law was in Anrong Courtyard, the bench had been set up, and there were four servants who were specifically responsible for enforcing the family law.
Looking at the posture, Gu Chongyang knew that the second lady and Gu Chongzhu were afraid to suffer a crime today.
The daughters of the Gu family all arrived and sat down.
In order to leave dignity for the second lady and Gu Chongzhu, Mrs. Ge only told the Gu family's masters about their punishment this morning, and did not let them watch the punishment. But even so, it is enough for people in the second room to not be able to raise their heads for several years.
Gu Chongzhu looked frightened, two trembling, her feet were weak, she couldn't walk at all, she was brought to Anrong Courtyard by her mother-in-law.
The second lady was pale and nervous, although she could still walk, anyone could see that she was just holding on.
The second lady and daughter came to the front of the people and saluted Mrs. Ge and Mrs. Cui of the long house.
The second lady's composure was just a breath clenched by her teeth, and as soon as she opened her mouth to speak, her voice trembled.
She raised her head and looked at Old Madam Ge beggingly, but when her eyes slipped over the face of the eldest lady Hao, the two looked at each other, and the pity in her eyes immediately disappeared without a trace, replaced by a kind of jealousy. And the eldest lady had a smile on her face, and her eyes were full of contempt and ridicule. In her heart, the second lady is a defeated general, and it is not enough for her to spend any more energy to deal with it.
The second lady suddenly straightened her back, and without being urged, she automatically walked towards the bench where the family law was carried out. Gu Chongyang even saw the awe-inspiring guillotine on her face.
Unexpectedly, Gu Chongzhu suddenly howled and cried, kneeling on the ground and begging while crying: "Old lady, I know it's wrong, please spare me this time, I don't want to be ...... by family law"
She was very scared and very regretful.
But her plea not only did not win the mercy of Mrs. Ge, but made her brows frown, and she shouted coldly to her mother-in-law: "You are dead, why don't you pull the second lady over quickly." ”
"I'm not going, I'm not going, I'm going to enter the palace to be a princess, how can I be punished?" Gu Chongzhu was crying and struggling, and at the same time intimidated the mother-in-law who came to pull her: "You can't beat me, who dares to beat me, I will definitely not spare her when I develop in the future." ”
In front of so many people, she was still so rampant, especially the people in the long room were still there, Old Madam Ge felt that she had lost face, she was so angry that she slapped the table, and was about to speak, but she didn't expect the second lady to take the lead, walked in front of Gu Chongzhu, raised her hand and gave her a slap.
"Mother!" Gu Chongzhu raised her head in disbelief and looked at the second lady with tears on her face.
"If you do something wrong, you will be punished!"
hit the child's body, and it hurt in the mother's heart. The second lady would rather accept the family law for Gu Chongzhu herself, how can she not feel distressed if this slap continues?
But she knew that so many people were watching, if she didn't teach Gu Chongzhu a lesson now, the old lady would make them doubly subject to family law.
She could only say with tears in her eyes: "Don't make trouble, it's just ten sticks, gritted your teeth, and quickly got through." Be brave and lie on the family bench by yourself. ”
Gu Chongzhu also knew that no matter how she spilled, the family law must be endured, she looked at the family law stool, and couldn't stand up.
The two mothers-in-law set her up one on the left and one on the right, and put her on the family law bench, and Gu Chongzhu began to choke.
"Wait a minute." Mrs. Cui, who had not spoken, suddenly said: "Take a towel for the second lady and the second lady and bite it." ”
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then quickly reacted.
It must be very painful to be punished, especially for a person like the second lady who has never suffered hardship, Gu Chongzhu is even more pampered, and she has tears in her eyes when she her hands with needlework, not to mention being subjected to ten sticks?
Holding a towel in their mouths can not only prevent them from biting their tongues when they are tortured, but also allow them to endure it, so that they will not lose their dignity when they cry out and howl wolves.
Gu Chongyang glanced at the old lady of the long house with admiration, but saw that the old lady Ge's face was very unhappy, as if she was very jealous of the old lady of the long house.
The maid took the towel and came, and the second lady glanced at Mrs. Cui gratefully. Old Madam Ge suddenly slapped the table and said loudly: "Don't delay any longer, go to the family law!" ”
The heavy sticks fall on the person's * and make a "poof" sound. The moment the stick fell, Gu Chongzhu burst into tears. Later, every time the stick fell, her cry became louder, and it would not be too much to say that she was crying wolf. The sharp and collapsing voice really couldn't tell what it was like to hear it in everyone's ears.
The second lady didn't cry, she just bit the towel and snorted, which was not loud, and was all covered by Gu Chongzhu's crying. The stick fell heavily on her body, and she couldn't take care of Gu Chongzhu at the moment.
But Gu Chongyang can't feel pitiful for these two people. They just suffered ten sticks, compared to the beating and scolding they inflicted on the third sister Gu Chongzhi before, these ten sticks are really nothing. In the previous life, Gu Chongzhi died not long after marrying Fei Shirong, not so much because he was forced to die by Fei Shirong, but because he was forced to die by the mother and daughter of the second room.
Thinking about it like this, Gu Chongyang felt very relieved.
She looked up at Gu Chongzhi, only to see her looking at the tortured second lady and Gu Chongzhu with a solemn face, no matter how loud they screamed, she was indifferent, as if she had nothing to do with her. I didn't expect the third sister, who is usually timid and cowardly, to have such a bold and bold time. Rabbits will bite when they are in a hurry, not to mention that the third sister is not a rabbit. The enemy is unlucky, she should look at it like this.
For the spectators, the time of the ten sticks is just a matter of an eye, but for those who are lying on the family bench and being punished, every moment is torment.
Finally, after the ten sticks were beaten, Gu Chongzhu's voice was already crying hoarsely, and the person fainted because he couldn't stand the pain. The second lady was sweating profusely, as if she had been fished out of the water, and was supported by Grandma Sun and another mother-in-law, and kowtowed to Mrs. Ge tremblingly: "Daughter-in-law Xie Old Lady for a lesson." ”
When she knelt down, her face, which had been flushed, suddenly turned pale again, and there were many beads of sweat on her forehead because it hurt too much.
"Eat a trench, grow a wisdom, you have to restrain the second girl in the future, and don't let her come nonsense again." Old Madam Ge said again: "Those who cause a big disaster, disobey the elders, and discredit the Gu family must be subject to family law, this is the rule set by the ancestors of the Gu family when they established the family. In the past 100 years, there have not been many people who have violated family law, and the last time they asked for family law was more than 40 years ago. Those who are subject to family law are also the dependents of the inner house, and they also discredit the Gu family because of their misconduct. Today's incident can be regarded as a lesson for all of you, the Gu family's family law is not an ornament, if someone makes a mistake, I will not bypass her first. ”
When the voice fell, the eyes swept over everyone's faces one by one, especially when it came to Gu Chongyang, it was a gloomy warning.
Except for Mrs. Cui, everyone hurriedly lowered their hands and stood up.
Mrs. Ge wanted to say more, but Mrs. Cui suddenly said, "Let people help the second daughter-in-law and the second girl go down first." ”
Being interrupted, Old Madam Ge was very displeased, but she didn't show it, she only nodded at Old Madam Cui, and then said, "Help them down, ask the doctor to treat her injuries." ”
"Sister-in-law, this incident is the result of my lax management of the family." Old Madam Ge felt a little guilty on her face: "I don't know if it will affect Sister Hua'er?" ”
She was talking about the entrance exam to Ruizhu Academy in early April.
The old lady of the long room didn't answer when she heard this, but she was rarely stern: "It's still a trivial matter if the shadow doesn't affect Sister Hua'er, if this matter spreads, the face of the entire Gu family will be lost." Fortunately, all of them came this time with their own relatives, although things were not decent, but in the end they did not cause a big disaster, otherwise you and I would have the face to face our ancestors and ancestors after a hundred years? ”
These words were like a slap in the face of Old Madam Ge.
The implication is that when things come to this point, I don't think about the entire Gu family, and I only care about Gu Chonghua's affairs alone. As the head of the family, how can you only care about personal gains and losses and not think about the overall situation?
