Chapter 3: Rising Again

On the seventh day of the second month of the second year of Yongning, the Gu Mansion began to dismiss the slaves after informing the Anjing Mansion.

At the same time, the housekeeper in charge of the kitchen was directly sent to the Anjing Mansion for embezzlement, and the other housekeeper in charge of the Shaohua Courtyard was sold separately because of his betrayal.

At the beginning, the mother-in-law kept crying for herself, until Gu Wushuang took out those deeds.

It turned out that this mother-in-law saw that there were many things in the house, and saw that Gu Wushuang was busy dealing with the affairs of King Yu and had no time to take care of it, so she secretly stole Gu Wushuang's jewelry and took it out to pawn, and chewed the root of her tongue outside, saying that King Yu actually had a heart of disobedience for a long time, and even General Gu, that is, Gu Wushuang's father, also knew about it, but it was only because Gu Qingcheng liked it that he finally agreed to this marriage.

Although it was indeed Gu Tingcheng who fell in love with King Yu at the beginning, but now this kind of words are spreading outside at this juncture, which is tantamount to pushing the entire Gu family to jump into the fire pit.

"Although this kind of person should be betrayed, you have disposed of so many people at once...... Wouldn't it be too good? ”

In the main room, the Zhou family had already regained his composure, raised his eyes and saw Gu Wushuang coming in, and couldn't help but be a little worried: "And your Uncle Zhao, how to say that he is also an old man in the house, you ......"

"Mother." Gu Wushuang glanced at the Zhou family a little tiredly, and then secretly exhaled a cloudy breath, and said: "Of course I know that Uncle Zhao has been running around the mansion recently, but he is a housekeeper and the chief steward of the whole mansion, if he doesn't even manage the people in his own mansion......"

Gu Wushuang shook his head and didn't say anything more, only secretly spit out again and said: "Now there is no title in the mansion, and there are only you and me in the mansion, not to mention manpower, even this food and clothing degree has to be changed." Otherwise, it will be a little bad to let the people next to you look at it. ”

"Okay, I'll ask someone to tidy up and put away all the things that were originally on the standard."

Although the Zhou family has always been well protected, he is not a stupid person who doesn't understand anything, so he only understood what Gu Wushuang meant.

It's just that Steward Zhao is still a little reassured.

"You Uncle Zhao ......"

"Mother." Gu Wushuang was helpless: "Do you know how your brother-in-law was arrested?" ”

King Yu did have the intention of rebellion, and even made a lot of preparations for this.

But since Gu Qingcheng entered the mansion, King Yu gradually stopped thinking, and then he only lived his life with Gu Qingcheng, but in the end he died.

Died in the ambition of the counsellors, in the ignorance of others.

"I'm not a ruthless person today, but if my brother-in-law is a little vigilant, why ......" was still kept in the dark until the incident?

"I know, I know it, I'm just worried that you will make you Uncle Zhao feel cold like this, after all, ......"

"Mother." Gu Wushuang became more and more helpless: "Why don't you think about it the other way around, if Uncle Zhao is willing to leave the house because of this, maybe it will be a good thing?" ”

Gu Wushuang was ambiguous and didn't say it explicitly, but he sighed again before he suddenly saw the figure by the door outside: "Uncle Zhao is here?" But what's the matter? ”

"Back to the second lady, that's the case, I just discussed it with a few stewards, and the matter of leaving the house will be handled by the various places, and then it will be reported to the second lady after the statistics are completed."

Steward Zhao entered the door, as if he hadn't heard the conversation between the two at all, and only replied to himself: "Among the other stewards, except for Steward Wu in the front yard, the rest expressed their willingness to stay......

"Uncle Zhao can handle these things by himself, you don't have to report to me." Gu Wushuang tugged at the corners of his lips, and came to a conclusion without waiting for Steward Zhao to finish speaking.

Steward Zhao nodded when he heard this, paused, and raised his eyes to measure Zhou's face secretly, and then carefully considered: "In the other two days, I asked for a relationship outside, and I wanted to send some things to the eldest lady, and by the way, I tried to find my uncle's corpse, but ......"

Steward Zhao wanted to speak and stopped, and unconsciously looked at Zhou's face again.

"Uncle Zhao?"

Gu Wushuang subconsciously frowned: "If Uncle Zhao has anything to say, you might as well say it directly." ”

Seeing this, Steward Zhao couldn't help but take a deep breath: "It's the eldest lady, I received the news that the eldest lady is pregnant, and it's been more than four months and almost five months!" ”

"What!" Zhou's face immediately changed when he heard this: "Is what you said true, Shuang'er...... Really pregnant? ”

"When?" Gu Wushuang changed color with it, but it was only for a moment before he immediately regained his composure: "Is the news reliable?" ”

"Reliable." Steward Zhao nodded and said, "As for the incident two days ago, it was said that the palace specially sent the imperial doctor to take a look at it in order to confirm it, and the imperial doctor's surname was Liu, and the housekeeper and I still had a good relationship, and this news was privately revealed to me by him." ”

"So Shuang'er is really pregnant?" Zhou was anxious when he heard this, and his eyes were uncontrollably filled with tears again.

"What does the palace say?" Gu Wushuang was also a little apprehensive, but he couldn't make up his mind for a while.

Counting today, I still have to call King Yu a cousin, and King Yu is also a last resort, and now King Yu has been ambushed, and he is not a ruthless person today, if ......

Gu Wushuang didn't dare to think about it anymore, but just looked at Steward Zhao with anticipation, hoping to really hear the answer he expected from his mouth.

But in the end, I was disappointed.

"There's no news yet." Steward Zhao shook his head, paused, seemed a little unbearable, and couldn't help but add another sentence, "But maybe I didn't inquire clearly, I'll think of a way when I get back." ”

"There's Uncle Lao Zhao." Gu Wushuang got up and solemnly thanked Steward Zhao.

After a pause, and was about to speak, he heard a little maid communicating outside, saying that someone from the clan was coming.

Gu Wushuang frowned subconsciously when he heard this, but Zhou hurriedly tidied up his appearance, and then directly pulled her to the front yard without waiting for Gu Wushuang's reaction.

"The Zhou clan has seen all the clan elders."

In the flower hall in the front yard, the Zhou family entered the door and saw that the clan elders were already waiting, so they couldn't help but hurriedly pull Gu Wushuang forward to salute.

On the contrary, it was Gu Wushuang, who raised his eyes and glanced at the seat of the elder of the big clan, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows secretly.

"I know that the elders of the clan are still telling us to wait like this, Zhou, what about your rules?" The old man of the three clans snorted coldly, as if he had really been neglected, and his face fell directly on the spot.

And I don't know if it's an illusion or something else, Gu Wushuang always feels that the eyes of the elders of the three clans seem to be a little unkind.

Gu Wushuang sneered, and as he spoke, he pulled the Zhou family behind him, and said, "Elegant and elegant treatment, bandit and bandit, the elders of the three clans are uninvited...... Why don't the elders of the three clans tell me that you are a Ya or a bandit? ”

"Presumptuous!" When the elders of the three clans heard this, their faces sank instantly, but they were about to speak when they were stopped by the elders of the big clans.

"Zhou, we came to you this time to discuss something with you."
