Chapter 129: Ugly Treasure
In the few rounds of fighting with Chu Yueli, Mrs. Chu already knew that she was somewhat capable, so she didn't prepare to give her a chance to explain, and said in her mouth: "What are you talking about!" The face of Chu Mansion has been lost by you! He raised his hand and was about to slap her in the face, ready to make a final decision.
Chu Yueli turned on her tiptoes, dodged to the side, and shouted in a voice louder than Mrs. Chu: "You guys are the ones who are talking about it!" Haven't you heard of it, the ugly wife's family treasure?! I dressed myself ugly, I am Gu Hou's treasure, God will be able to ensure that he is healthy, disease-free and pain-free. ”
Mrs. Chu's slap used strength, but she didn't slap Chu Yueli, but she tore her arm. She was about to command Gui Ru to grab Chu Yueli and drag the person away directly, but when she heard such an explanation, she immediately had a bad seizure.
Steward Gu was slightly stunned, then smiled with chrysanthemums on his face, and said in a loud voice: "Okay...... The treasure of the ugly wife's family. The third lady's heart, the slave must bring it. After that, he gave a salute to Chu Yueli and left.
Master Chu touched his beard and smiled: "It's rare that you think well. ”
Chu Yueli touched her face full of ink and said, "It's still a good mother." I didn't want to show my face, but I stepped on my shoes, so I showed my face. After a slight pause, he asked curiously, "Does my mother know that I was splashed with black ink all over my face and want to help me?" ”
Chu Yueli's words were very subtle. If Mrs. Chu wanted to help her, she would naturally not beat her, and she would definitely give her time to distinguish. It's a pity that Mrs. Chu didn't. Mrs. Chu's people stepped on Chu Yueli's shoes and almost caused her to fall, so she showed this little black face. So, what kind of attitude Mrs. Chu has is already clear. She just wants to sabotage this marriage!
Master Chu frowned slightly, looked at Mrs. Chu, and had already planted a grass called doubt in his heart.
Mrs. Chu immediately explained: "This matter is so reckless that I mistakenly thought that Yueli didn't want to get married. Only then did she get angry, for fear that she would say something inappropriate in front of Steward Gu, so that the matter would not be turned around. After a slight pause, he looked at Chu Yueli, ready to change the topic and hold him accountable again, "Why are you so embarrassed?!" Today, someone came to the door to collect debts, saying that you owe 200 taels of silver, and you just go to pay off the debt, why did you go back home?! ”
Master Chu had already accepted Mrs. Chu's statement, and looked at Chu Yueli with a frown, looking like he wanted to investigate deeply.
Chu Yueli sighed in her heart: I don't know which political enemy of the cripple is even taking goods like Master Chu for his own use, aren't you afraid that you don't know people and suffer a big loss? ! Or is Master Chu a hidden master? Is all this an illusion? If this is the case, then this man's city is too deep.
Chu Yueli retracted her snooping thoughts, lowered her head, and replied honestly: "I was going to go back to the house earlier, but on the way back, I always felt that someone was hiding on the side of the road and wanted to sneak attack me." I...... I was scared and ran away. If it weren't for Glory coming out to find me, I'd ...... I don't dare come back yet. ”
Mrs. Chu's face tensed, and she said, "I'm used to talking nonsense!" ”
Lord Chu touched his beard and said with a serious expression: "Recently, there have been some evil winds in the imperial capital, and two young ladies have been lost, and they are nowhere to be found. Don't go out in the future, stay at home honestly and do some needlework. ”
Chu Yueli nodded in response, very well-behaved. Curtsied, took his leave, and left.
Mrs. Chu's eyes flashed, and she asked Lord Chu, "Master, what you said about the evil wind, but is there really such a thing?" ”
Master Chu said with a calm face: "Which one will lie to you!" You should also be careful, don't go out of the house again, don't let other people out of the house, and be careful to provoke unclean things. ”
Mrs. Chu responded, "Okay, I know." ”
Chu Yueli gradually walked away and didn't take this matter to heart. However, she knew that Mrs. Chu must have taken this matter to heart. Some bad people are always thinking about how to harm others, but they protect themselves. Luckily, she's never been a good person, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to figure out what these bad things were thinking.
Chu Yueli returned to the Wisteria Pavilion, washed up under the service of Duobao Niang, and then went to see Duobao and Hong Xiao, and after paying back the two taels of silver owed to Hong Xiao, she talked for a while and went back to the house to rest.
Duo Bao Niang sent the golden medicine given by Rong Hui to Chu Yueli, and while helping her apply it in the palm of her left hand, she said in a low voice: "Every time Miss goes out, she has to bring her injuries back home." This hand...... This hand...... Hey......"
Chu Yueli yawned and said, "If this injury is worth five hundred taels of silver, do you say it's worth it?" ”
Duo Bao Niang's eyes widened and said, "Five hundred taels? ”
Chu Yueli nodded.
Duobao Niang said: "If it is five hundred taels, it is worth beating the slave all over his body." After a slight pause, he frowned and said, "Miss is so expensive......"
Chu Yueli narrowed her eyes, smiled playfully, and said, "No matter how expensive Miss is, it is not as good as silver." Only real money is reassuring. ”
Duo Bao Niang nodded, agreeing with Chu Yueli's statement. She looked at Chu Yueli, looking like she wanted to say something.
Chu Yueli asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Duo Bao Niang replied: "Miss, the slave has inquired with the person who is in charge of going out to buy. The man said...... said that Gu Hou's body was afraid of ...... No...... Not so good. ”
Chu Yueli said: "I am ready to be a widow, you don't need to worry about me." ”
Duo Bao Niang looked incredulous, and was speechless for a long time.
Chu Yueli stopped talking, closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Duo Bao Niang withdrew lightly, but she secretly sighed, worried about Chu Yueli's fate.
On the other side, the Hou Mansion.
The glazed lantern exudes a clear luster, and the jumping flames shine through the glaze and reflect on the exquisite gold wire screen, showing a pale orange halo, which is extremely rich and extraordinary.
A palace beauty has towering temples, slightly raised eyebrows, and long eyeliner on her eyes, adding a bit of fierceness, and authority and domineering that cannot be provoked.
There is a black and red vertical between her eyebrows, which is an extremely simple flower between the eyebrows, drawn with a single stroke, the two ends are pointed, and the middle is slightly wider, which is different from the softness of ordinary women, and the end is simple and powerful, just like her style, saying the same.
The woman was painted with a dark red rouge, and her skin was as delicate and white as porcelain. If you look closely, you will find fine wrinkles in the corners of her eyes, which shows that she is about 40 years old, but she is very well maintained.
This person is Gu Boxi and Gu Jiuxiao's mother, the eldest princess of Fangzun, Bai Jiyue.
She sat firmly on the golden silk nanmu chair with a high backrest, and while holding the incense piece with a small golden phoenix tail spoon, she listened to all the things that the housekeeper reported to the Chu Mansion.
When Steward Gu said "the treasure of the ugly wife's family", she gently knocked the small golden spoon on the incense burner, and said without raising her eyebrows: "Well, she is allowed to pretend to be an ugly woman in the future, give her the name of the ugly treasure, and pray for my son." ”
The butler replied, "No." ”
