A princess is a princess and you are you. It's a no-brainer phrase. Gu Yunhu died for the eldest princess's son. This is another whimsical statement.

However, what Qingshu cares about most is not the latter, but the former. The latter was obviously written by a woman to Gu Ye's family, and if you think about it, you will find that this is the other party's deliberate attempt to fill in the Gu Ye clan. In Qingshu's opinion, the credibility is very low. This is a small method used by women when they were children, and they can only be confused by the authorities, and bystanders are clear. Gu Yunhu, the person concerned, is dead, and there is no evidence of how others want to comment on it. And the former is faintly unsettling.

Qing Shu held these two letters in his hand, and his brows were furrowed. Does this woman of the Gu Ye clan have long brains? Dare to save the letter of the princess in vain, don't you want to die?

I wanted to find out who the Gu Ye clan was contacting, but I didn't expect such an unexpected gain. It's just that this windfall is of no use at all except to make people feel uneasy and confused.

Qing Shu separated the two letters and put them aside to take one off. When she saw the contents of the fourteenth letter, she not only opened her mouth slightly in surprise, but even the hand holding the letter shook unconsciously. After reading it, she was stunned, spread out the letter on the table, and kept turning the letter in her mind, "Sister Lan, don't read it, the silver two have been received, and when you have to fly for your brother, you will be doubled." And the three words "Wu Zhenjiang" at the registration office. This letter was written to Gu Ye by a man named Wu Zhenjiang more than four years ago.

Qing relieved himself and opened the fifteenth letter. The paper is new, and the content is ...... She grimaced, and then looked at the sixteenth and seventeenth letters. After looking at it, he put it away calmly. This seventeenth letter was only received by the Gu Ye clan today, and the Gu Ye clan searched for it before she had time to read it.

She locked up all the other letters, and pinched the fourteenth, fifteenth, and sixteenth letters in her hand, "Xiaojuan, immediately go and pass Mother Su and the housekeeper to Wenlan Courtyard." "Xiaoyu, if the two young masters come over, you tell them that I am busy, let them play by themselves."

Xiaojuan promised to summon Su's mother and the housekeeper.

Qing Shu also walked out, Xiao Yu wanted to follow, Qing Shu said, "You don't have to follow, if the young masters come over, you can either coax them to play in front of you, or show me to stop, and don't allow them to get close to Wenlan Courtyard for half a step." ”

Xiao Yu agreed, stopped and watched Qing Shu leave.

Seeing Qing Shu appear with a gloomy face, Guan Pozi hurriedly came out to greet her, hurriedly greeted her, and picked up a curtain to invite Qing Shu in.

Qing Shu didn't go in and stopped at the door, "What is Madam doing?" ”

Mrs. Guan replied truthfully, "Mrs. cried for a while, said that she was not feeling well, washed her face, and just lay down. ”

Qing Shu exhaled and paced unhurriedly around the courtyard.

After a while, Su's mother and the housekeeper arrived in a hurry.

Qing Shu looked at them, "Butler, Mother Su, you take Mrs. Guan, Xiaojuan and Xiaoyu out, personally guard the door of the inner courtyard, and don't let anyone in, and the young master is the same." She calmed down a lot while waiting for the housekeeper and his wife, and it was better not to let anyone know about the stupid things committed by the Gu Ye clan, so as not to lose the face of the general's father and the face of Qingyang.

Mother Su naturally noticed that Qing Shu's expression was wrong, and now that she heard such an order, her heart burst out, "Miss, ...... you are"

Qing Shu waved his hand, "Just do it, don't ask so much." ”

The housekeeper Gu Qiang responded, "Miss, don't worry, the old slave will take them out." After that, he took Mother Su and Mrs. Guan out, walked around the inner courtyard, brought Xiaoyu and Xiaojuan with her, and stopped the Ding family sister who was about to send the fruit basket to Wenlan Courtyard. He asked everyone to stand in front of the inner courtyard gate, and he guarded the inner courtyard door, and no one was allowed to enter.

At this time, Qing Shu entered Gu Ye's living room, walked to the bedside, put away the bed curtain that had been put down during the day, hung it on the hook unhurriedly, and sat on the edge of the bed.

Gu Ye's body was covered with a summer quilt, his eyes were closed tightly, and he lay there motionless.

Seeing this, Qing Shu didn't call her, just got up from the edge of the bed, walked over, opened the cabinet that had been broken by herself, picked out the clothes inside and shook them one by one before throwing them out.

Gu Ye opened his eyes and peeked, Huo Di sat up and screamed angrily, "Beast, what are you going to do?" ”

Qing Shu turned around and threw the three letters in his hand in her direction, "If I am a beast, then you are not even as good as a beast." Ask me what I do? What can I do? I am looking for evidence of my mother's fornication, are you satisfied? ”

Gu Ye's face instantly turned red and white, and his lips began to tremble, "You...... You, nonsense, madman, you are crazy. ”

Qing Shu laughed self-deprecatingly, "I'm crazy? Scold! I'm going mad indeed. Died at the age of nine, already very pitiful, but I didn't expect to be unlucky to meet a selfish and cold-blooded mother, let me live for six years with a mother and without a mother, and suffered from the ridicule and cold eyes of others. I was wronged, and every time I hid in the boudoir and cried, I always secretly vowed to find a good husband with a strong background to marry me, and stay away from the cold-blooded and ruthless mother, but I didn't want to, and I almost died. All kinds of pain and suffering in my daughter's heart, do you know about it? ”

Gu Ye naturally didn't know, because she never cared about the affairs of her children, and naturally she would not pay attention to the changes in her children's feelings.

"These pasts, since they are in the past, don't mention them. However, there are some things that cannot be left unmentioned. Mother, while you are making a heartbroken appearance for your father's death, you are exchanging letters with other men's brothers and sisters, and you have borrowed a large sum of silver. Mother, are you doing the right thing? ”

Gu Ye glared at Qing Shu, "What did I do wrong?" I am the lord of a house, my brother is in trouble, why is it wrong to borrow my brother's money? ”

Qing Shu smiled sarcastically, "Brother? Mother, your surname is Ye, but the brother in your mouth is surnamed Wu, how to explain this? Besides, didn't your brother surnamed Wu keep saying that he would take you back at the right time to enjoy Qingfu? How? The wife has done enough, and she wants to taste the taste of being raised by a man, but can't she be a woman who can't be seen by others? ”

Gu Ye almost couldn't get up in one breath, and pointed at Qing Shu with trembling fingers, "You big rebellious thing, you talk nonsense, nonsense." She suddenly screamed, "Yunhu, Yunhu, look, look at your good daughter, your good daughter dares to splash dirty water on her mother, I don't live anymore, I don't live anymore......" She shouted, patted the bed under her and cried.

Qing Shu bent down, picked up a letter from the ground, unfolded it and handed it to Gu Ye's face, "Black and white, as long as you are literate and not blind, you can see it clearly." Okay, don't pretend, your tears are worthless in front of me. Where is the deed of loan when you borrowed your brother Wu's silver? You'd better take it out yourself, don't let me find it myself. That doesn't do you any good. It's your business to be cheap, you shouldn't, you shouldn't have calculated on me, and you dared to have the mind of promising me to your old lover's son. ”

Gu Ye pulled away the letter that Qing Shu held in front of her, only to hear a bang, and the paper on which the letter was written was split into two, "No, if there is, it will not be given to you." That's my dowry, and who I lend it to has nothing to do with anyone. ”

Qing Shu almost slapped her, raised his hand, and stopped in mid-air, and finally clenched his fist and put it down. She silently turned around, returned to the cabinet, and continued to carry Gu Ye's clothes one by one, shaking them twice before throwing them on the ground.

Gu Ye got out of bed and screamed and pounced, ready to stop Qing Shu.

Qing Shu hated it very much, but because of the unchangeable mother-daughter relationship, he couldn't bear it, and just dodged sideways.

Gu Ye's pounce was too late, and his feet were tripped by the clothes thrown on the ground, so he hit the cabinet with a sigh and cried.

Qing Shu thought she was in the way, so he pushed her away from the cabinet, then threw out the two boxes in the cabinet, and continued to turn over and throw clothes out until the bottom of the cabinet was facing the sky. This didn't work, so she moved to another cabinet and stared at the lock on it, "Do you want to open it yourself, or do you want me to smash it open?" From now on, I will not feed you in vain, because you are not worthy. ”

Gu Ye sat on the ground, his hand pressed on his waist, and looked at Qing Shu with tears on his face, with no intention of taking out the key.

Qing Shu didn't talk nonsense, ran out, and came back quickly, only to see an axe in his hand. This is the axe that Guan Pozi took away, put it in the yard, and sent it back to the firewood room of the kitchen too late.

Gu Ye looked at the axe with a cold light shining on the blade, his body shook a few times, fear flashed in his eyes, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. She swallowed her saliva and glanced at Qing Shu, just in time to meet the cold gaze that Qing Shu looked at. She unconsciously looked away, although reluctantly, but finally threw the key out of her body.

With a sonorous sound, Qing Shu threw the axe to Gu Ye's leg. Gu Ye screamed in fright, his eyes widened, and he cried and crawled back as he looked at the cold-glowing axe blade that was almost a few inches away from his thigh.

Qing Shu bent down expressionlessly to pick up the key that had been thrown on the ground and used the key to open the cabinet. Again, she turned the contents upside down. At last she picked up the clothes that had been thrown on the floor and stuffed them into the cupboard, and gathered up the money she had found. Ten gold ingots of five taels, eighteen silver ingots of five taels, two hundred and sixty taels of silver tickets, and more than eight taels of scattered silver. She wrapped them up and set them aside.

The next place to search was Gu Ye's bed, but I didn't find anything. Qing Shu took the wrapped gold and silver out, put it on the table outside, and brought a basin of water and put it in front of Gu Ye's family, "Wash your face." Let me see you shed a tear again, and from today onwards, I will give you coarse grain rice every day. ”

Gu Ye is the kind of character who will bully you if you tolerate or if you are weak, and afraid of you if you are strong. Besides, she is a forgetful person, and after a long time, she will forget your strength and means, and her mind will be active. When Gu Yunhu was alive, this side of her was not obvious. After Gu Yunhu's death, this side of her slowly came to the fore.

She knew how loyal Gu Qiang was to Gu Yunhu, so she naturally left all the livelihood problems of the people in the whole mansion to Gu Qiang to worry about, which was a strong proof of "if you tolerate it, I will deceive you". She knew that Qingshu was her daughter, and she couldn't help her, so she did something out of tune from time to time on a whim, which was another proof. Then, whenever Qingshu was furious, she would be frightened and honest, this is "If you are strong, I will be afraid of you".

The Gu Ye clan is not uncomplaining. Widowed before thirty, a woman like her who is attached to a man and has a dodder flower character, without a man, she is naturally lonely. If it is another woman, even if she is lonely, she is busy taking care of her children and managing the affairs of the house, so she is busy and does not have much time to taste loneliness. On the contrary, she is an irresponsible, self-pitying person, who spends her days idling idly and doing nothing, so she is naturally empty and lonely.

Because she was empty and lonely, when a man wrote to her, her words brought a little pity and ambiguity, she immediately took the bait, and lent a large sum of silver more than four years ago. After more than four years, not only did the other party not return her silver, but there was not a letter in the middle. Now, the other party remembered her idiot fat sheep, and threw the bait again, she idiotically took the bait again, not only taking the other party's letter as a love letter to dispel loneliness, but also responding to the party's request, wanting to marry her daughter to the other party's son as a steproom.

The other party's requirements are high, and the letter makes it clear that a young lady who has withdrawn from marriage, the other party can accept it, and marrying her as a stepfamily is completely based on the past relationship with the Gu Ye family. What's in it? Naturally, it is the love of borrowing money but not repaying it.

Waiting for Gu Ye to wash his face, Qing Shu looked at her coldly, "Go to bed and sleep." ”

Gu Ye flinched and climbed into bed.

Qing Shu went over and put down the bed curtain, "How much silver did the surnamed Wu borrow from you?" ”

Gu Ye replied in a low voice, "Two thousand eight hundred taels." ”

"Today's matter, you dare to say half a word, waiting for you is only to dip in the pig cage." Qing Shu is like this, not to protect his reputation, but to protect his younger brother's reputation. Although the Gu Ye clan is angry, from the point of view of the people of this era, it is a big unfilial piety for her to intimidate her mother, she has a bad reputation, and her younger brother will also be affected, and it will be difficult to hear when she goes out. Of course, no matter what era you are in, intimidating your mother will always be criticized, no matter how hateful your mother is.

Qing Shu picked up the axe on the ground and lifted the curtain in front of the bed, "There will be a next time, and I will not spare it." ”

When Gu Ye saw the axe, his body trembled, and he covered his head with a summer quilt.

Qing Shu put the axe back in its place, took the three letters on the ground, and took the wrapped gold and silver back. She put her things away and walked out of the inner courtyard, "Okay, what to do." He didn't let Xiaoyu and Xiaojuan follow, and went directly to Zhou Boyan's residence.
