Old Madam Gu gave an order and summoned all the servants in the house.

In the past, except for the major national festivals, Gu Zhai summoned everyone over to distribute them, and Mrs. Gu personally gave out red envelopes, but at other times, he never summoned all the people to the living room.

You look at me, I look at you, you don't know what's going on.

However, seeing that all the people in the Gu family looked serious, they also knew that it would not be too good.

"Old lady, everyone has arrived, what do you command?" Butler Cao Daye reported.

Old Lady Gu didn't speak, first swept over the faces of the crowd of people, and her eyes seemed to be about to see through everyone step by step.

These servants in the Gu family usually see the kind and friendly old lady, and they have never seen her so stern gaze, and they don't feel their hearts tremble.

"Do you want me to find out for myself, or do I want to confess myself?" Old Lady Gu's voice was as cold as ice.

The people below looked at each other, not knowing what Old Lady Gu meant, and couldn't help whispering.

"Alright, don't talk."

Cao Daye's eyes rolled slightly, stopped them, and then leaned over and asked the old lady Gu, "Old lady, what happened?" What makes you so angry? ”

"What's the matter? I think someone in there must understand. There must be someone in this group who wanted to deliberately hurt Ai Ai, and even used this kind of inferior means to sprinkle oil on the steps, causing Ai Ai to almost fall from the stairs.

She was pregnant now, and if she did fall down the stairs, the consequences would be unimaginable.

I want to see, how can there be such a person in my Gu family, and what does she want? What's wrong with Ai Ai, she wants to hurt Ai Ai like this? ”

Old Lady Gu was scared when she thought about it, and her voice trembled a little with anger.

"What? So someone did this kind of thing!? Old lady, don't worry, this matter is not difficult to investigate, I will definitely find out and give Mrs. Zhou an explanation. ”

Cao Daye also had an expression of righteous indignation on his face, and then looked at the servants standing in the living room.

"Okay, Steward Cao, I'll leave this matter to you, I'll see who is so vicious?!"

Cao Daye has been in the Gu family for many years, and he has always kept the Gu family in good order, and his ability to do things is deeply affirmed by the Gu family, so Mrs. Gu is very relieved to hand it over to him.

"It's simple,"

Cao Daye looked at the old lady and began to analyze it in an authentic manner, "May I ask the old lady and the master, when you went upstairs to rest after lunch, you also passed through the stairs, did you find that there was oil on the stairs at that time?" ”

"Nope." Old Mr. Gu and Old Lady Gu shook their heads at the same time.

"That said, the oil on this staircase was only smeared after your second elder went upstairs—"

Cao Daye seemed to recall there, then looked at the servants and asked, "During that time, who went into the living room and went upstairs?" ”

The servants immediately began to talk about what they had been doing at that time.

"Why are you getting more and more unruly, you just look at your mess, and say it one after another."

Cao Daye spoke sharply.

So the servants began to explain one by one what they had been doing and where they had been during that time, in order to show proof of their alibi, and each of them had witnesses to prove it.

In the end, there was only one person left, standing nervously in place, and fine sweat began to ooze from his forehead. Sands Chinese

"Is that you?"

Mrs. Gu looked at Sister-in-law Liu, who had been in charge of the restaurant, in disbelief.

Sister-in-law Liu is an old man who has been waiting in the Gu family for many years, she has always worked hard and complained, and she is honest and loyal, Mrs. Gu never imagined that she did it.

"Old lady, I, I really didn't want to harm Mrs. Zhou, I, I don't know what to say-"

Sister-in-law Liu said tremblingly.

"I remember—"

Suddenly, Gu Nan got up from the sofa, looked at Sister-in-law Liu and said, "At that time, Qiao Ai and I were chatting in the living room, and out of the corner of my eye, I did see Sister-in-law Liu carrying something upstairs, and it was all a matter of course, so I didn't pay much attention to it, but I didn't expect it——"

"Young Master, it's really not me—it's—"

Sister-in-law Liu saw that the focus was on her body at once, and waved her hand again and again to explain.

"What are you? Why do you want to hurt Mrs. Zhou?! ”

Cao Daye suddenly asked.

Sister-in-law Liu was taken aback, and hurriedly looked at Cao Daye, not knowing if it was her own mental effect, or if it was true, she saw a touch of ruthlessness in Cao Daye's eyes.

Sister-in-law Liu was a little ruthless, so she had to say, "Old lady, I really didn't mean it.

Because the door of the upstairs pantry was a little creaking when it opened and closed, I went to the warehouse today to fill it with a little lube while I was fine, and went upstairs to smear the door, which must have been accidentally spilled by me when I went upstairs.

I absolutely didn't mean it, I have no grievances with Mrs. Zhou, how can you say that I can harm her.

If you don't believe me, you can go upstairs and check if the door to the pantry has been repaired. ”

After speaking, Sister-in-law Liu cried whining, as if she had been wronged.

Mrs. Gu signaled to Cao Daye, and he immediately ran upstairs to check.

Soon, Cao Daye came back to report that the door of the pantry upstairs had indeed just been wiped with lube.

Although Sister-in-law Liu's words sounded seamless, Mrs. Gu still had doubts and felt that things would not be so simple.

"Sister-in-law Liu, you have been working in my Gu family for so many years, and you have always been working under my nose, and I know you well.

You've always been cautious and haven't made the slightest mistake. What the hell is going on today? Is there something behind it? You name it, and I'll call the shots for you. ”

Unexpectedly, Sister-in-law Liu listened to Mrs. Gu's words, and instead of stopping her crying, she cried even more, crying while saying, "Old lady, I don't have any bitterness. It's all because I was sloppy and accidentally spilled the lube on the steps, I really didn't expect that it would cause Mrs. Zhou to almost fall downstairs-"

Sister-in-law Liu insisted that she was unintentional, although the anger in Mrs. Gu's heart was reduced a little, but the residual anger was still not gone.

So, in front of all the servants, she made her decision - to fire Sister-in-law Liu.

In the end, Mrs. Gu repeatedly emphasized that although Sister-in-law Liu had no intention of spilling lubricating oil, this showed that she was sloppy and careless, and it led to almost serious consequences, so she could no longer stay in the Gu family to work.

Because although there is no danger this time, it may not be next time.

Sister-in-law Liu seemed to be prepared for this result in advance, and although she cried very sadly, she did not make any further arguments.
