At noon, Ruiyue-in.

A few days ago, the snow had fallen and several layers of snow had accumulated on the eaves of the temple, but now the sun is out, and the warm sunlight is shining on the eaves of the temple, melting the snow into streams of water and flowing into the drainage ditch under the eaves.

Aunt Hong stood under the western glass under the corridor, holding the cat pine nuts that Gu Lihua personally called someone to send her to relieve her boredom last night.

The waiting maid brought the tea, and Aunt Hong glanced at the tea brought by the maid, and then instructed the maid to put the tea on the high table made of Huang Teng wood standing under the Western glass.

"Did someone send the news from the back room? Didn't I hear that Feng Cheng brought a woman in, and that look like the Qi family was seven or eight points alike, but there was such a thing?"

Aunt Hong asked, and the maid thought for a moment before replying.

"Madam, the maid and lady who are waiting in the back room have always been golden, and the slave and maid sent someone to inquire about it, but they only heard what Mrs. Fang Cai said.

The woman looked outside, and she did look seven or eight points similar to Mrs. Qi, but the woman was wearing a cloak and covering her face tightly, and the slave really didn't know if she was Mrs. Qi or not! ”

Hearing the maid reply like this, Aunt Hong didn't turn her head, but put down the cat she was holding in her arms and put it next to the maid.

The cat walked up and down beside the maid, accompanied by the sound of the cat's neighing, which really frightened the maid very much, and immediately shouted.

"Madame spare her life, please beg Madame to spare her life! It's the slave and maid who are incompetent, and I can't ask whether the woman is Mrs. Qi or not, but I just ask the lady to spare the slave and maid for the sake of the slave and maid serving you for so many days! ”

The maid pleaded with Aunt Hong, but the cat was still walking around the maid.

Aunt Hong was about to speak, but she heard the mother-in-law who was guarding the door shouting loudly.

"Madam, the lord is here! The lord is here! ”

Collecting the displeasure on her face, Aunt Hong personally picked up the maid from the ground, took the handkerchief she was carrying, and patted the dust on the maid's knees.

"That's it, go out! Since you said that the back cover room is tight, and you can't hear the news, I'll change someone else to inquire! In the future, you will follow Mrs. An and do the work of cleaning and sprinkling in the backyard! ”

Aunt Hong's mouth said that Mrs. An's mother-in-law is the mother-in-law who is in charge of the Ruiyue Courtyard, and she has always been very strict, and she treats the little maid who has been punished, and she beats and scolds her, and the maid who displeases Aunt Hong, Aunt Hong will send someone to her for training.

Although the maid did not displease Aunt Hong, since Aunt Hong said so, she was definitely going to sweep the sprinkler.

Listening to Aunt Hong's words, the maid panicked at that time, and she couldn't care about her image, so she immediately grabbed the corner of Aunt Hong's skirt and wailed.

"Madam, madam, you also know that Mrs. An is a person, and the slave and maid are unwilling to go to the sweeping place! I heard that those maids who were arranged by you to sweep the sprinkler were beaten to the point of flesh under the hands of Mrs. An! ”

Aunt Hong wanted to get up and walk, but she was forced by that maid and couldn't get out.

Aunt Hong was about to speak, and when she kicked the maid at her feet away, a little maid followed behind Gu Lihua, and she entered Ruiyue's C Corridor and saw this scene under the Corridor.

"What are you doing here? How can you let a maid drag your feet?"

Gu Lihua just came in, and he hadn't figured out the situation in the courtyard yet, but when he saw the maid pulling the corner of Aunt Hong's skirt, he asked.

When the maid saw Gu Lihua, it was like seeing a savior, and immediately climbed to Gu Lihua's feet, kowtowing and crying.

"Master, I beg you to talk to Madame, the slave doesn't want to go to the sprinkler! The lady explained the slave's errand, and if the slave and maid did not do it well, the lady would send the slave and maid to Mrs. An, and let Mrs. An punish the slave and maid!

You also know that Mrs. An is an extremely ruthless person, disciplining people, either big or scolding! ”

The maid cried, but Gu Lihua didn't care, but asked the little maid who followed behind him to pick up the maid in front of him and take her outside the courtyard to rest.

After emptying the people waiting under the corridor, Gu Lihua picked up the cat from the ground and handed it to Aunt Hong.

"She's just a little maid who waits, as the wife of the housekeeper, why should you get along with a maid?

And she is still serving by your side, but she didn't do a single errand, so you sent her to Mrs. An, which makes the other maids and women who serve in your house see, what should I think of you?"

Gu Lihua said this to Aunt Hong on the one hand, and on the other hand, he picked up the tea cup that had been placed on the high table of Huang Tengmu, lifted the tea lid, blew the floating color on the tea, and personally handed it to Aunt Hong beside her.

Aunt Hong glanced back at Gu Lihua behind her, and took the tea, but she didn't drink it, but threw it on the high table at once.

The tea cup smashed on Huang Tengmu's high table, and the tea was knocked over at once, and a table of tea flowed.

Gu Lihua stood beside Aunt Hong, and was also shocked by her sudden behavior, and her face suddenly became angry.

"Good serve a cup of tea, if you don't drink it, you won't drink it, what do you do with it to lose your temper! If this tea is not to your taste, I will call the steward to come in and give you a new tea. ”

Aunt Hong didn't look at Gu Lihua behind her, but followed the hair of the cat in her arms and replied lightly: "Since the tea was handed to me by the master himself, what I want to do with it, whether to drink it or not, it's all up to me."

And that maid, you personally pointed me to serve me, whether I sell it or keep it, you have no right to interfere. ”

Hearing Aunt Hong scolding Huai like this, the red on Gu Lihua's face became a little worse, and he gasped a few times before he lifted his breath.

"Hongmei, I handed you the tea, and I sent the maid, if you want to dispose of it, you have to listen to what I mean, right? That maid didn't make a big mistake, so why did she force people to death.

If this matter spreads, what will others think of you, and whether you want the name of the wife of your generation of head of the family or not?"

Gu Lihua looked at Aunt Hong, who insisted on refusing to admit her mistake in front of her, and said fiercely.

"If it weren't for the lord mentioning it, the concubine would have almost forgotten that the power of my family was personally rewarded to me by the lord.

Originally, the lord just watched me conceive the second child in the second room, so he attached great importance to me, and now that the child is gone, the lord naturally wants to return everything you gave me. ”

Aunt Hong hugged the cat in her arms tightly, and suddenly had a seizure, grabbed the throat of the cat in her arms, and didn't let go for a long time.

Gu Lihua saw that Aunt Hong grabbed the cat's throat and wanted to kill the cat, so she immediately stopped it, and snatched the cat from Aunt Hong's hand and put it on the ground.

"Hongmei, aren't you crazy? If you hate me, come at me, why bother to take a cat out your anger! Gu Lihua said, glaring viciously at Aunt Hong in front of her.
