Chapter 48: Dealing with White Plums
She saw Gu Qiao again. Gu Qiao had already made a marriage at this time, and he was a big landlord's family in the countryside of Runan, and he was also a scholarly family who cultivated and read heirlooms. But since the second year of Lynn's examination, the Gu family seems to have been entangled by the god of mildew, and all kinds of bad luck. The family also sent someone to the door and canceled the marriage.
Seeing that he was about to get married, but he was repented of his marriage, this incident hit Gu Qiao very hard at that time. In just half a month, she pulled half of the hair on the top of her head.
Yao used this as an excuse to send Gu Qiao to her home in Kyoto, saying that she was asked to come here to relax and recuperate.
At that time, Gu Ming had no choice but to agree. When she first came, Gu Qian was also very honest, so although she lived for a few years, Gu Ming also put her mind at ease. But who would have thought that Gu Qiao would recuperate and recuperate, and then recuperate in his brother-in-law's bed?
In the end, under the joint efforts of Lin Enzhi and Yao, Gu Ming could only pinch his nose and promise to let him enter the door as a concubine. But who knew that that would be the beginning of the greatest tragedy of her life?
But in this scenario, none of these things have happened yet. Those are all things that come later. At this time, Gu Qiao was just a shy little girl waiting for the time to get married......
But Gu Ming's eyes widened suddenly, and she saw Gu Qiao's face as calm as water, and a hair was pulled from her head. That place happened to be one of the few places she would later pluck.

She remembered that in her previous life, after Gu Qiao was divorced, she was also like this, her face was flat, but her hands were non-stop, pulling her hair one by one, as if it didn't hurt at all. Later, Yao had no choice but to tie her hands behind her back, so that it was slightly better.
But after not being able to pluck her hair, Gu Qiao looked unusually restless, sitting there, twisting around......
If it weren't for that, she wouldn't have agreed to send Gu Qiao to her home to recuperate at that time.
In other words, Gu Qiao's hair means that she is actually quite anxious in her heart? So she is very nervous and anxious now? And when did you start committing this problem? Gu Ming frowned and recalled carefully.
Although it was in a dream, Gu Ming felt that her brain was very useful.
"Mother, mother, what are you doing, why are you poking your own hands?" Suddenly, a delicate and soft voice said from under her. She lowered her head, smiled at the beautiful little girl holding her legs, and replied with a smile: "Bao, my mother doesn't have it......"
"Ah!!h Suddenly, Gu Ming woke up from her dream, she hadn't come back to her senses for a long time, and she was panting there.
Why, why did I dream of Po again?
Her tears flowed down, and she said softly: "Ah Bao Ah Bao......" My mother poked her hands, just because she was thinking about you...... My mother really misses you...... I miss you so much......
Bao, don't worry, in this life, my mother will let all the people who hurt you be punished, and they, one by one, will not be able to escape......
"Fourteen mothers! Fourteen mothers! What happened to you? What happened to you? Are you in a nightmare? Lilac heard the movement in the house and rushed in, her hair draped over and her clothes only in her middle coat.
Gu Ming slowly raised her head and looked at Lilac, only then did she realize that it was so dark in the house.
"What time is it?" Gu Ming asked in a low voice.
Lilac hurriedly stepped forward to pick up Gu Ming, slowly helped her to lie down, and replied, "Fourteen Niang, it's the end of the Western Era now." ”
It's so late, huh? Looks like she's slept long enough this night.
"Lift me up, I think I've slept well." dreamed of Ah Bao, and Gu Ming realized how much she hated these people of the Gu family. She wants revenge! There can be no more delay!
Lilac looked at her suspiciously, slowly helped her up, lit the fire again, and lit the oil lamp.
"The slave maid heard that some big merchants in the city use candles to light at night, but it is really luxurious!" Lilac wanted to ease the atmosphere, so she said, "How much does that cost!" It didn't light up anywhere either......"
"In the past, the Gu family also used candles." Gu Ming said softly. It's just that there hasn't been an official in two generations, and this family background has naturally slowly declined. Although there are still some granges and some shops, it is a big question whether they can keep it in the future. Not to mention, no matter how profitable the business is, it can't catch up with the money that comes from being an official.
Of course, it hasn't really reached such an extent, but if Yao's doesn't come out like this, how can it show that she is diligent and thrifty?
"Really?" Lilac smiled awkwardly. She lit the oil lamp, and when she turned around, she saw blood stains on the moon-white bedding.
"Fourteen Niang!" Lilac exclaimed.
Gu Ming looked down along her line of sight, only to find that the blood had stained the futon.
"Dismantle it and wash it." Gu Ming said indifferently. Raising his left hand again, he asked Lilac to find something to wrap the package.
Lilac watched the bloodstains on her palms twist and turn like snakes, and her face turned pale with fright. It was only after finding a strip of cloth that completely wrapped the palm of her right hand that she let out a long sigh of relief.
"Don't you ask why?" Gu Ming asked faintly.
Lilac was silent and said, "Fourteen Niang, if you don't want to say it, the slave will never ask." ”
"Very well, you remember, don't ask." Gu Ming said slowly, "As long as you are loyal to me, I will give you everything you want...... However, you need to tell me what you want in advance. Don't make me guess, because I still have a lot of things to do, and maybe some things I can't guess, or guess wrong. Do you understand? ”
"The slave understands. Fourteen mothers, please rest assured, slaves and maids will always be loyal to you. Lilac knelt down and kowtowed respectfully to her three times.
No matter what kind of oath it is, in the face of reality, it is actually powerless. But you can't ignore it, and likewise, you can't take it too seriously. What can really make people loyal is interests. As long as you can provide enough benefits, then, she will naturally be loyal.
Bai Mei, although she betrayed her in her previous life, in this life, Gu Ming still gave her a chance. But it's a pity that Bai Mei's greed is too great, so as soon as she was snubbed by Gu Ming, she quickly threw herself at Yao.
Such a white-eyed wolf, she naturally can't keep it anymore.
"Madame, Madame! Please give me another chance......" Bai Mei kowtowed desperately on the ground, crying and pleading.
Yao sat at the head of the bed and said indifferently: "I didn't want to make the house noisy for so many days, and I reduced the joy of Shi Niang's good deeds." Don't worry, I'll let Yazi help you pick a good family, and I won't send you to those dirty places. ”
"Madame, Madame!" Bai Mei cried bitterly, kowtowing desperately, her forehead was broken, and she was bleeding.
"Don't knock anymore, if you break your appearance, good people won't want you." Aunt Dong couldn't look at it from the side, and persuaded in a low voice.
Only then did Bai Mei know that there was no room for maneuver in this matter, and sat on the ground sadly, crying without strength.
"Drag her out." Yao said softly, coughing loudly with excitement again.
