Mother You's face quickly turned red, green tendons burst out on her forehead, and beads of sweat the size of beans fell from her head.

She looked at the second grandmother next to her in a panic.

The second grandmother was unmoved, as if she couldn't see her at all, but was talking to the people around her with an indifferent expression.

Wan Ning instructed He Danian, "Tell Shopkeeper Jiao to calculate the amount of tea produced each year, so that he can rest assured that if I can't eat those tea leaves, there will be no tea merchant who can eat them." ”

He Danian nodded, Wan Ning continued to turn over the accounts, Tong's mother took the calculation, and Wan Ning reached out to fiddle.

The crisp sound of the abacus beads sounded in Mother You's ears, and from the time she entered this room to the present, there seemed to be no other change except that she was pressed and beaten with a stick like this.

The second grandmother would not order her to be spared because of her pain, and did not care about her life or death at all.

Mother You remembered those pirates during the day, those pirates killed people without blinking, and the second grandmother and the pirates were good, and there would definitely be a way to make her disappear without a trace.

As long as she thought of this, Mother You was cold.

The waving stick finally stopped, Mother You's eyes suddenly widened as if she had been amnestied, the mother-in-law next to her pulled her up from the spring chair, and the cloth ball in her mouth was also taken out, her throat itched and coughed suddenly, and finally gasped for breath, and her brain immediately turned around, the second grandmother punished her like this, did she want to ask her something? Is it after the Cui family, or is it from the past?

How would she answer? She said she was wrong, wouldn't she have walked out of this house tonight?

Mother You waited anxiously for a moment, and she saw the second grandmother taking a sip of tea. put down the ledger in his hand, but immediately someone came over with a stack of ledgers.

Mother You was stunned there, trying to figure out what the second grandmother meant. The mother-in-law next to her immediately wanted to plug the cloth ball back into her mouth, and Mother You suddenly panicked, kept shaking her head, and shouted in a hissing voice, "Second grandma, spare the slave and maid, the slave and maid are wrong." The slave is wrong. ”

The voice of forgiveness came, but the mother-in-law was unmoved, holding her shoulder. Still putting the ball into her mouth, she was dragged onto the spring stool.

Another blow with a stick made her whole body feel like it was going to be scattered, and the pain had extended to all her limbs. Finally stayed up until the stick stopped. Mother You was lifted down from the spring bench again, and when the cloth ball in her mouth was taken away, Mother You couldn't wait to speak, "Second grandma, it was the slave who overheard outside your yard today that it was the slave and the maid who was wrong, and the slave and the maid knew that it was wrong, so you spared the slave and the maid." ”

Wan Ning was unmoved.

Mother You suddenly panicked in her heart, she was afraid that the cloth ball would return to her mouth again. How could she have thought that the young second grandmother didn't blink her eyes when she hit someone. Even if she was killed, it would be nothing more than a trivial matter.

Inexplicable fear suddenly spread all over her body, she didn't want to die, she didn't want to die.

"Second grandmother," Mother You trembled her lips, "The slave maid also listens to our grandmother's arrangement, my grandmother ...... My grandmother ...... "She shouldn't say those things, and she shouldn't say those important things, and Mother You's tears suddenly flowed."

After struggling like this twice, the cloth ball was stuffed again, and Mother You suddenly howled with struggle, "The slaves and maids all say, the slaves and maids all say, my uncle is not the master's concubine, my grandmother is not the eldest grandmother, and my young master is not the young master......"

Mother You's snot and tears flowed together, what the second grandmother wanted to hear should be these words, as long as she said it, the second grandmother would spare her, and she wouldn't have to suffer anymore.

Mother Tong next to her breathed a sigh of relief, she knew that there was a problem with the uncle and the grandmother, and sure enough, with what Mother You said here, look at that Su Yun still dares to talk nonsense.

After Mother You finished speaking, she looked at Wan Ning, and Wan Ning raised her eyes this time, her expression was not as concerned as Mother You expected, but disapproving.

Mother You's heart sank, and the expectation in her heart suddenly turned into foam again, and in her daze, she was lifted onto the spring stool again, and there was a pain like grinding bones.

No one wants to die, she never thought about the taste of death before, and when this day comes, it is so terrible that she wants to exchange everything for her life.

No matter how important things are, they are not as good as her life, as long as she can survive, she can say anything, and never hide it anymore.

"Second grandmother," Mother You's face was full of fear, "It was the second wife who instructed Su Yun to come to Beijing, and the second wife said that the second master and the second grandmother will come to celebrate when they become relatives of the Cui family, and Su Yun will make a lot of trouble when he comes to the door at this time, as long as he can hold the master, he can be the grandmother of this family openly, and he will enjoy endless glory and wealth in the future." ”

She was wrong, she was wrong because she also thought that after coming to the capital, she could change her face and be powerful from now on.

Mother You said: "At first, Su Yun didn't dare to agree, for fear that the master would not give in, but would lose his support, but the second wife said that the master had taken in a criminal officer before, and it was the old man Lu who Su Yun had taken care of all these years. ”

"That Master Lu also said that the master owes the Lu family a hundred and ten lives, and Su Yun has served him for so many years, which can be regarded as his repayment to Su Yun, if the master still refuses to agree, let Su Yun say that Brother Xiao is the descendant of the Lu family."

Wan Ning handed the account book to Luo Yu next to her, and looked at Mother You who was paralyzed on the ground, but she had beaten more than a dozen boards, then Mother You was so frightened that she confessed everything, if Lu Ziming's matter was exposed, even if they gritted their teeth and denied it, this Mother You would easily send everyone in the Cui family to the guillotine.

Cui's second wife, Duan, wanted to take revenge on Cui Yiting, and she did not hesitate to lose the entire Cui family.

Mother You doesn't want to be beaten again, "Over the years, the slave maid has been sending letters to the second wife, and every time the second wife sends a letter, the second wife will reward the slave and maid with ten taels of silver...... The slave will not dare next time, the slave and the slave will ...... I really don't dare anymore. "She just coveted the silver, and when she knew so, she behaved as her subordinate.

Wan Ning stood up and looked at He Danian, "You watch, let her tell everything clearly, if you dare to hide it, you will be killed here, you don't have to tell me." ”

He Danian responded.

Wan Ning took Mother Tong out of the house, and Mother You raised her head tremblingly and saw the tall and fierce He Danian in front of her, and hurriedly said: "The slaves and maids have said, the slaves and maids have said." ”

……

Wan Ning returned to the house, and He Ying was waiting in the courtyard to make a report.

"Second grandmother."

When Wan Ning sat down, He Ying said through the screen: "We waited for a few days at the door of the second master of Cui Er, and finally waited for that Cui Zhong to sneakily go out to do errands." ”

Wanning heard Cui Yiting say that Cui Zhong was Cui Shirong's most trusted manager.

He Ying said: "Cui Zhong went to a Zhuangzi outside Beijing, that Zhuangzi is not in the name of Cui Er's master, but under the purchase of a Du Yuanwai, it happened that the Zhuangzi asked for food, so I arranged for the next person to mix in in the name of delivering food, there is a woman living in the Zhuangzi, there are a few slaves and maids around to serve, like the relatives of a large family, that Cui Zhong went in for a while before coming out, and when Cui Zhong left, I heard that the master was going to move away to Nanzhili, and the carriages and horses were ready. ”

Could it be that he was afraid of being affected, so he went away to avoid trouble, presumably this person is very important to Cui Shirong.

Wan Ning nodded, "I'm going to keep an eye on Cui Zhong tonight." "She doesn't care about the things outside, but don't try to escape her eyes when things are in the house.

He Ying said: "Second grandmother, don't worry." ”

When He Ying retreated, Wanning stood up, and now she could go to Mengzhou Gong comfortably.

Tonight is destined to be difficult for some, but this is just the beginning.

……

In Cui Shirong's house, the Duan family couldn't sleep, and counted in his heart how many members of the Cui family would gather at Cui Shitu's house, and it was time for Cui Shitu to make a fool of himself in public.

There is also that Cui Yiting, if you want to keep Xiang Shang's head, you have to bow to her, and you have to rescue the master from prison.

They have been in power for so long, and they should also taste the taste of being oppressed.

When the master comes out of the prison, Cui Yiting's death time should also come.

Tomorrow she will dress up and be a guest, Duan Shi helped her hair bun, imagining what kind of expression Cui Shitu would have, whether that Zhao family would be so angry that she couldn't afford to be seriously ill, and the Yao family who couldn't help herself...... Just thinking about it makes me feel comfortable.

Duan turned over and slowly fell asleep with the corners of his mouth raised.

……

Su Yun didn't know what she had a dream, and when she woke up, it was already dawn, Su Yun cleared her throat, and the little maid who was guarding outside immediately brought water in and waited for her to freshen up.

After changing clothes, the kitchenette brought up the food.

Su Yun couldn't help but look out the door, and then frowned, "What about Mother You?" ”

The little maid shook her head, "The slave didn't see it. ”

It was about to go to Zhang Luo for something, Su Yun didn't care, and coaxed Brother Xiao to have breakfast.

After eating, there was still no trace of Mother You, and Su Yun was a little anxious and ordered the little maid, "Go and find Mother You." She wanted Mother You to follow her to see the uncle, and the lack of someone by her side seemed to be a little less dependent.

The little maid responded, and only came back after going out for a long time to say, "The slave maid went to ask, but no one saw Mother You, and I don't know where Mother You went." ”

Su Yun's eyes widened, "Not in the next room?" "Mother You didn't tell her to go out of the house.

The little maid shook her head, "No." ”

People can't disappear out of thin air, Su Yun's heart is like being stabbed by a long needle.

Suddenly, she felt like she was flustered.

Could it be that he was arrested?

If so, what is she going to do?

There was a sudden silence in the room.

I don't know how long it took, the next person came to say, "Our second grandmother asked you to go over." ”

Su Yun raised her head, Yao wanted to see her.

She was supposed to go to Yao, but she didn't expect Yao to take the initiative to see her.

Could it be that Uncle Cheng's illness has really improved, and he said something that shouldn't be said, or is it Mother You...... Her mind was in turmoil.

The subordinate led the way in front, Su Yun followed behind, the bluestone road was cold and cold, and the cold air drilled up her feet, and she took a few long breaths.

There's nothing to be afraid of, she shouldn't be afraid, she still has the master's handle in her hand, and they can't help her.

(To be continued......)
