Chapter 104: True and False Lady (4)
The gagged woman in the firewood room shouted "whining", and watched in horror as a dark figure came in.
This woman was about thirteen or fourteen years old, and if she was in the daytime, she could be seen to be eight points similar in appearance to the eldest lady in this house.
"Erya, don't shout, it's me." The person who came took out the strip of cloth from Qian Erya's mouth.
In the moonlight, Qian Erya saw clearly that the person who came was her eldest sister, Qian Daya, oh no, now her name is Gui Chuyu.
Qian Erya actually hated her eldest sister in her heart, although the whole family of their Qian family worshiped her like the God of Wealth, but she Qian Erya didn't owe her, just because she looked a little similar to her, she was forced to leave home when she was ten years old. Hiding outside alone, lest she be seen, threatening her eldest sister's glory and wealth with herself.
was later found by those two, and Qian Erya actually had a kind of secret joy of revenge in her heart.
However, Qian Erya is just a country girl, and after being tied up for so long, she is inevitably afraid, and when she saw Gui Chuyu coming with hot porridge, she couldn't help crying.
"Don't cry, sister is here to save you," Gui Chuyu was afraid that her cry would be heard, so she had to pretend to lie to her.
Qian Erya is still smoking.
"Shut up! I'll tell you not to cry, do you want to find someone to come, kindly cook something for you to eat, what is there to cry about, drink it quickly. Gui Chuyu roared impatiently, and then forcefully stuffed the porridge into Qian Erya's mouth.
"Ahem, cough, cough" Qian Erya was unprepared for a while, and she poured half a bowl of it.
"You, Qian Daya, you ......" Qian Erya realized that something was wrong at this time, it turned out that this slut wanted to poison himself.
Qian Erya suddenly felt abdominal pain like a knife, and when Gui Chuyu saw that the effect of the medicine had attacked, she didn't dare to look at her sister's hideous face anymore, so she dropped the porridge bowl and fled in a hurry.
In one day, after doing so many things, Gui Chuyu only felt trembling all over, and returned to the room to cover himself and was groggy.
I didn't notice that several maids in the courtyard were gone, and even Xiaomei was gone.
On the second day, Gui Chuyu was woken up by a chaotic footstep, but saw that it was several mothers-in-law in the Wu family's courtyard who broke in, followed by Xiaomei with a panicked face.
"Who let you in? Didn't you see Miss Ben sleeping, Akizuki! Winter snow! Don't hurry up and drive out these evil slaves. Only then did Gui Chuyu realize that this Xiaomei was a bad thing, and he also remembered to make Qiuyue and Dongxue come well.
"Miss, Madame, please." Several mothers-in-law called her eldest lady in their mouths, but there was not even a trace of respect in their eyes. Xiaomei didn't dare to say a word on the side.
Qiuyue and Dongxue didn't come in for a long time, and a string in Gui Chuyu's heart seemed to be broken with a "boom". Mu Ran got up, the two mothers-in-law didn't allow her to wash, and stepped forward and pulled her arm to take it away.
"Slow, I want to comb my hair, you go out first, Xiaomei, you come over ......" Gui Chuyu said with a pale face.
The mother-in-law didn't urge her, she wanted to save the face of the eldest lady, so she followed her.
Gui Chuyu stepped forward and closed the door with his own hands, turned his head and stared at Xiaomei tightly, and quickly commanded a few times, Xiaomei's eyes widened and widened when she heard it, and she hesitated.
"Go! I know that the person you hate the most on weekdays is Diancui, this time Miss Ben will give you a chance to get rid of her, and afterwards I will marry into the Qingfu of Taichang Temple and you will be a dowry, and the glory and wealth are innumerable......" Gui Chuyu induduced.
Xiaomei is not very interested in marrying into the Taichang Temple Qingfu as a concubine, she is now interested in Yuan Zhiheng Yuan Gongzi, but if she wants to let the annoying Diancui die, she will inevitably move in her heart.
"Okay, I'll go, but I don't want to go to Anfu, Xiaomei just wants to serve by Yuan Gongzi's side......" Xiaomei knew that this was a good time to raise conditions.
I didn't expect this bold girl to bargain with herself and fall in love with Yuan Zhiheng? Gui Chuyu didn't expect this, in order to appease her, Gui Chuyu pretended to be generous and said: "It's okay to follow Yuan Gongzi, if you do this matter, I will beg my mother to promise you to Yuan Gongzi!" ”
"Really?" Xiaomei couldn't hide her excitement.
"Naturally it's true," Gui Chuyu laughed at her stupidity in her heart, but her face was extremely sincere, and when she saw her heartbeat, she hurriedly urged: "Hurry up, first use medicine to stun her, and then go around the path to the south courtyard, the room in the corner, where you put some blood from her, and quickly bring it back to me." ”
"Can be dotted with emerald...... What if she wakes up and runs away when I'm gone? Xiaomei was not at ease, and she did not understand why she was taking her blood.
Gui Chuyu was already anxious like an ant on a hot pot, and he had to explain this matter to this idiot: "You just need to take her to that room, and someone will take her life after leaving, or do you want to personally take the lawsuit for killing people!" ”
Xiaomei froze for a moment, feeling that what the eldest lady said was indeed reasonable, so she jumped out of the window and sneaked to the lower room in the front yard......
After a while, the mother-in-law outside the door entered the house and said, "Miss, let's go?" ”
Gui Chuyu held his sleeve tightly, but he had to be calm and calm, and said:
"Mother naturally wants to go there, but yesterday I promised my grandmother to go to ask for peace, so I went to her old man's house to say goodbye first." As he spoke, he walked out of the room with his head held high.
Several mothers-in-law looked at each other, not knowing what kind of medicine she was selling in her gourd, and wanted to stop it, but Chu Yu brought out the old lady. Although the lady and the old lady are not very close to each other on weekdays, they also instructed the upper and lower levels to respect the old lady, and since they were going to her old man's house to say goodbye, they did not dare to stop her, so they had to follow her firmly.
"Oh, my grandmother likes me to wear that big red folded begonia skirt the most, I'm going to change my clothes, and I'm bothering a few grandmothers to wait for me for a while." Gui Chuyu was deliberately delaying, and several mothers-in-law only found out that the maid named Xiaomei was missing, one of them immediately went to look for it, and the rest looked at Gui Chuyu with fierce eyes.
Gui Chuyu slowly changed into a red begonia skirt, covered with a dark purple silk embroidered gold thread jacket, and the head was still a neat set of gold and jade four times on the head, and the embroidered shoes on the feet were each inlaid with a pearl the size of a pigeon's egg.
In addition to the clothes, the best fat powder was bought by Gui Bonian to please her, and it was thickly applied three times, and the lipstick was also the most popular pale rose color.
It can really be said that he looks three points and dresses up seven points, when he is silent like this, he looks like a noble lady in the capital, but it's a pity......
A few mothers-in-law followed her not far away and went to the old lady's yard, but the mothers-in-law did not dare to come any closer, so they had to stay far away from the embankment.
After about two incense sticks, Gui Chu Yu came out of the old lady's courtyard, followed by a maid who came out of nowhere, Xiaomei.
At this moment, Gui Chuyu had a confident smile on his face, where was the panic he had earlier.
"How many grandmothers know what my mother called me for?" Gui Chuyu still has the heart to pretend to inquire about things now.
Several mothers-in-law all spoke coldly, and refused to speak more, lest Gui Chuyu play some tricks and delay their errands. Gui Chuyu was bored with himself, and he didn't ask any more.
Grandma Lu put the tables and chairs in the courtyard, and at this time Layue Wu wore a mouse-gray cloak trimmed with silver thread wool, a forehead with gold velvet cloth inlaid with precious jade, and a Zhaojun set on his hand, rich and majestic. Next to him was the iron-faced eagle-hooked nose Grandma Lu, and there were two burly mothers-in-law standing in the background.
"Yu'er, you're here, sit down." Wu beckoned Gui Chuyu to sit on the carved rosewood chair he was working on.
Gui Chuyu felt that there was a strong sense of oppression in this courtyard, and the Wu family, who was sitting on it, looked as usual, and drank leisurely with a teacup, but Gui Chuyu felt that there seemed to be bloodthirsty killing intent in her eyes, such a thought flashed, and Gui Chuyu sat on the chair in surprise and didn't dare to move much.
Don't be afraid, that Qian Erya has been poisoned by himself last night, and now Wu Shi may just be bluffing when he calls himself, thinking like this, Gui Chuyu slowly sat up straight, but his eyes didn't dare to look up again.
The coercion exuded by the Wu family really shocked and frightened Gui Chuyu, after all these years, she only thought that the Wu family was a poor woman who was careful to please herself, but she never knew that the Wu family was still a decisive mistress of the home.
"Bring people in!" Wu put down the teacup and said in a voice that was neither high nor low.
This is a subordinate twisting a few countrymen dressed in short clothes coming in.
"Does Yu'er recognize them?" Wu asked.
Gui Chuyu had no choice but to raise his head and hurriedly glance at it, and said with a smile: "How can such a mud-legged daughter recognize it." ”
"Big girl, it's us, it's uncle and aunt, why do you say you don't know the big girl." At this time, a couple rushed to say that their niece had become a noble girl in the capital, and it had always been their capital to show off, but in front of several villagers, this niece actually said that she didn't recognize them, wouldn't this make them lose face.
"Shut up, who is the big girl, I am the eldest lady who has returned home, how can there be an uncle and aunt like you, dare to climb again, be careful of your dog's life!" Gui Chuyu was angry and scolded viciously.
"Whew! You girl is not too big or small to scold the elders for being dogs, don't think that you can pretend to be a young lady in the city by putting on your body silk and satin, how many layers of powder are smeared on your face, and she is not a dirt girl born in the mud! That aunt is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and immediately scolded back.
"Enough! Shut up! Grandma Lu scolded.
"Now I am finally willing to admit that this is your nephew, more than four years ago, you swore that she was a child picked up by the Qian family." Grandma Lu said sarcastically.
"Wasn't that because my brother-in-law gave the money...... the man said embarrassedly, if it weren't for the family's promise this time, as long as they told the truth about the past, not only would they not be held accountable, but each person would have been able to share two taels of silver, they would not have come all the way to testify.
"You lie! Mother," Gui Chu Yu got up and said, "They must have been bribed by someone to frame Yu'er with silver, mother, you must believe Yu'er." ”
"The silver was promised to them, but it was not to buy them, it was to give them a chance to tell the truth," Wu made it clear that the person who "bought" them was herself. Then he turned his head slightly to those people, and said sharply word by word: "If anyone dares to lie again, I will not spare him even if I exhaust my family wealth!" ”
A few countrymen hurriedly said they didn't dare.
Gui Chuyu was shocked, and suddenly walked up to Wu Shi with some sadness, and said sadly: "It seems that my mother doesn't believe in Yu'er, but my mother still remembers that I dripped blood on that hairpin more than four years ago, and the blood melted into the hairpin, and since then my mother and grandmother have recognized Yu'er." ”
As he spoke, tears fell.
"If Mother still doesn't believe it, Yu'er will drip blood again! I just hope that my mother will not believe the words of these villains who have gone back on their word, if they can say panic once, can't they say it a second time? Gui Chuyu bit her pale lip, there seemed to be a decisive flame burning in her eyes, Wu Shi looked at her like this, and hesitated slightly.
