The news quickly reached the front yard.

At this moment, Gu Mingzhu was sitting in the courtyard basking in the sun, taking a sip of the teacup in his hand, so comfortable.

A slave hurriedly walked into the courtyard, knelt down at her and saluted, "Madame is not good. ”

"What's going on to be so panicked, what's the system?" Gu Mingzhu frowned slightly and scolded in a low voice.

"Madame doesn't know, it was the second lady who punished Miss Qiao'er." The slave and maid knelt on the ground and told everything that had happened.

Hearing this, Gu Mingzhu's face changed slightly, put the teacup on the table, and asked in a deep voice, "Where is Qiao'er?" ”

You must know that Qiao'er is a child of the family, and she is also a slave and maid brought into the general's mansion by Gu Mingzhu from the Gu family, and even Gu Mingzhu has never punished Qiao'er.

What's more, Qiao'er went to make pastries for the Lan family, how could she be punished for no reason, which made Gu Mingzhu look puzzled.

With worry on her delicate cheeks, she stepped out with broken steps.

As soon as he walked into the garden, he faintly heard a cry, Gu Mingzhu raised his eyebrows slightly, and hurriedly stepped forward.

"What's going on?"

Gu Mingzhu walked over, and when she saw Qiao'er kneeling on the ground, there were pastries scattered in front of her.

Seeing Gu Mingzhu coming, the tears in Qiao'er's eyes became more and more unstoppable, and she said with a look of grievance: "Madam, you have to be the master of the slave and maid, the slave and the maid are wronged." ”

At this time, Gu Mingzhu lowered her eyes, looking at Gu Mingzhu crying bitterly, her heart instantly softened.

"Something has happened, you get up and speak." Gu Mingzhu ordered in a deep voice.

At this time, Qiao'er got up slowly and said aggrievedly: "The slave maid carefully prepared pastries for the second lady, but who knew that the second lady not only didn't eat it, but also knocked the plate to the ground. ”

"Then the second lady framed the slave and maid for the crime of disrespect, and let the slave and maid kneel here all the time." Qiao'er sobbed lowly, with a look of grievance between her eyebrows.

Hearing this, Gu Mingzhu's eyes flashed slightly, with a complicated expression on his face, and he asked in a deep voice: "Is there really such a thing?" ”

"Mrs. Hui, the slave doesn't dare to lie." Qiao'er said with a sincere face, with an aggrieved look on her face.

Qiao'er has served by her side since she was a child, and Gu Mingzhu still knows something about Qiao'er's personality, she bowed her head slightly and said, "I will definitely not let you be wronged." ”

"Thank you, ma'am." Qiao'er looked grateful and bowed slightly.

The weather was hot at noon, Gu Mingzhu frowned slightly, and said softly: "Let's go back to the room first, and say anything slowly." ”

"Hmm." Qiao'er wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and nodded.

Then Gu Mingzhu walked back to the courtyard with broken steps.

Gu Mingzhu looked at Qiao'er, whose eyes were red and swollen, and comforted her in a low voice: "You take a sip of tea first, don't cry." ”

Then Gu Mingzhu had a hesitant look on his face, and said in a low voice: "Now that the Lan family is pregnant, you don't want to provoke her anger." ”

Qiao'er, who was still aggrieved, had a look of disdain on her face, and pouted with a small mouth: "Madame doesn't know, the slave maid also saw the Lan family swinging and walking like walking on the ground, that looks like a pregnant person?" ”

The fluttering words fell into Gu Mingzhu's ears, and with a complicated look on her face, she asked in surprise, "Did the Lan family swing?"

"Mrs. Hui, the slave maid saw the second lady swinging with her own eyes, and she was afraid that it would not be good for her body." Qiao'er muttered word by word.

At this time, Gu Mingzhu's eyebrows frowned, a strange look flashed in her eyes, and she muttered to herself: "Since you are pregnant, you should have a good rest, and I play some tricks like this, so I am not afraid of hurting the general's child." ”

Seeing Gu Mingzhu's worried face, Qiao'er showed a look of disdain on her face, and pouted and said, "The slave maid can't see that the second lady looks like a pregnant person. ”

"And Mo Hu said." Gu Mingzhu immediately scolded.

"The slave also tells the truth." Qiao'er had a dissatisfied look on her face, and said in a low voice, "The second lady is scolding the slave and maid, where does she look like a pregnant person?" ”

Sitting at the round table, Gu Mingzhu took a sip of the teacup and said softly, "What do you mean by this?" ”

"Doesn't Madame think it's strange?" Qiao'er frowned and said in a low voice.

At this time, Gu Mingzhu picked up a cup of tea, took a sip of tea, and said in a low voice, "What do you mean by this?" ”

"Mrs. Hui, the slave maid heard the old lady in charge of the house mention this matter, and the pregnant women all need to recuperate, and I heard that they can't eat."

"But the second lady didn't say anything about eating, and ordered the slave to make pastries for her."

Qiao'er frowned and said word by word.

These words fell into Gu Mingzhu's ears, she put down the teacup in her hand, and said slowly: "What do you mean by this?" ”

"Not long after the second lady moved into the general's mansion, she was pregnant, who knows if she is really pregnant or fake." Qiao'er muttered and pouted.

"Don't talk nonsense."

This matter is related to Chu Jing's reputation, Gu Mingzhu still shouted in time.

"The slave and maid also said it casually, and I hope that the lady will not take it to heart." Qiao'er hurriedly attached herself to Gu Mingzhu and saluted.

"Don't be so open-mouthed in the future." Gu Mingzhu scolded softly, but a look of doubt also appeared in her heart.

"Mrs. Xie." Qiao'er stood up.

At this time, a lady in charge walked in and said, "The slave and maid have said goodbye to the lady." ”

"What's the matter?" Gu Mingzhu said indifferently.

"Mrs. Hui, the general has returned home." The housekeeper said in a low voice.

"Come back, come back, just go down and serve."

Gu Mingzhu replied calmly.

At this time, Qiao'er saw that the hour was not early, and said in a low voice: "Madame is about to be noon, and the slave will go down to prepare lunch for you." ”

"Tell the kitchen to make fish soup." Gu Mingzhu ordered in a low voice.

Qiao'er hurriedly replied: "The slave and maid will go down and prepare." ”

Gu Mingzhu, who was sitting in the side room, was also idle, so she got up, walked out of the side room in broken steps, and walked towards the courtyard.

She wandered leisurely around the courtyard, and before she knew it, she had walked near the study.

Yun Chi, who was waiting at the door, saw Gu Mingzhu walking over from a distance, clasped his hands into fists and saluted: "The slave greets Madame." ”

At this time, Gu Mingzhu became embarrassed, with a complicated expression on her face, and asked calmly, "Get up." ”

"Madame is here to find the general?" Yun Chi then got up and asked softly.

Gu Mingzhu walked and walked, but she walked to the study alone, and when she came back to her senses, even she felt slightly stunned.

"It's not." Gu Mingzhu's face was embarrassed, and he quickly interrupted.
