"Liulang, who said that I have no grudge against the Liang family? The moment I married into the Gu family, she looked down on me, saying that our Cai family ancestor was a talented mason, and he was a small family that did not enter the stream. She is friendly to me on the surface, but secretly I don't know how much she hates me?" Cai raised his head and looked at Gu Lihua in front of him, his eyes were already surging with fierceness.

With a slight sneer, she muttered a few more words, "How about she being the second wife of the Gu family?" What if it's the county lord of Jinling Liang Wangfu? In the end, it wasn't like I was poisoned. If she died in the mansion like this, there was a mother in the mansion, and something happened, so naturally she should resist it! ”

Listening to these words, Gu Lihua only felt that Cai's family had still become unreasonable, and the words that he had been thinking of comforting her had dissipated at this moment.

He is not angry with her, nor annoyed her, he only feels sorry for her in his heart, she has been alone in the family all these years, and he is really not a man, so he must take good care of her in this matter.

Gu Lihua personally picked up Cai, who was still lying on the ground sobbing lowly, helped her to the couch to rest, and instructed the little maid in the room to remove all the dishes on the table of the Eight Immortals.

Seeing that Cai's gradually fell into a coma, Gu Lihua had no need to stay here, turned around and was about to push the door to leave, glanced at the maid waiting in the house, and specially advised, "You are all serving in the wife's house, you should know what to say and what not to say." If I find out who is gossiping outside, I won't be the first to spare her. ”

When the little maids heard this, they all showed a look of horror, and there were a few little maids who were bold, and they were not frightened by Gu Lihua's words, and responded: "Master, the slaves and maids know, the slaves and maids will definitely keep their mouths shut and will not leak out." ”

Gu Lihua had already walked outside the house, and there was already a little servant who held up an umbrella for him, and said, "Master, the Zijuan girl in the old lady's house just came over, saying that she asked the old lady to come over, and the old lady has something to say to you." ”

Gu Lihua took the oil-paper umbrella in the hand of the little servant, propped it up by himself, glanced at the warm pavilion behind him, and raised his head to look at the drizzle outside the corridor, and the rain hit the stone steps, making a ticking sound. asked the servant beside him, "What can the old lady say?"

The little girl shook her head, obviously not knowing, but said: "When Miss Zijuan came over, she didn't tell the villain, and the villain didn't have the courage to ask, so she could only come over and invite the master." ”

Gu Lihua turned his head and glanced at the little guy behind him, looking at his honest appearance, not like the liar.

Besides, when the old lady invited herself over, she must have something to say to herself, so these maids who passed the word didn't know, and it was also common sense. If these maids and maids who spread the word knew about it, then there would be no need for the old lady to invite herself over.

In the back cover room, Feng Lao'an asked Zijuan to move a Taishi chair carved by Huanghuali out and put it under the corridor, Feng Lao'an sat on it, looking at the rain that was still falling outside the house, and the corridor was full of lanterns, because Feng Lao'an and Gu Lihua, the sixth master of the Gu family, were going to talk under the corridor later.

Zijuan was worried that it would be windy at night and it was raining outside, for fear that Feng Lao'an's people would be infected with the wind cold, so she quickly took out a white mink fur from Feng Lao'an's cage and draped it on Feng Lao'an's shoulders.

"Old lady, this autumn rain is cold, and ten autumn rains are going to hibernate. This rain tonight is the third rain since the beginning of autumn, you have to be careful, in case of a cold, it will not be good if it does not drag on for ten days and half a month. ”

Zijuan said, touched Feng Lao'anren's palm, felt very cold to the touch, and was so shocked that Zijuan hurriedly instructed the little maid standing beside her: "Go and tell the mother-in-law on the stove, let them hurry up and boil the pot of hot water, and send it over quickly after installing the stove!" ”

Feng Lao'an was about to say something to stop it, but the little maid got Zijuan's order, and she was busy and went to the small kitchen.

Zijuan entered the house, took out the freshly brewed tea, and put it on the high table next to the Taishi chair, "Old lady, hurry up and taste it, this is this morning, the second wife ordered Qin's mother to send it, saying that it was the new Tieguanyin this year, she got three catties, and she couldn't finish eating it herself, so she asked someone to send one catty." ”

Feng Lao'an smiled and picked up the tea cup, lifted the tea lid and smelled the tea fragrance, the tea fragrance was rich, there was a sweet taste, it smelled very good.

"Zijuan, you are becoming more and more pleasing to my wife, knowing that I like to eat Tieguanyin, so I told the little maid to make it, and use the spring water of Jinding Mountain, no wonder it is so sweet."

"The old lady's golden tongue is really powerful, you can know where I use the water to make tea. I have heard others say that the spring water of this Jinding Mountain is the sweetest, and it is not polluted, so it is best used to make tea. Early in the morning, I instructed the servant to go to the top of the mountain and bring back two buckets of spring water, and now there is still one bucket on the stove. Zijuan said, and instructed the maid to bring the refreshments.

After eating too many refreshments at night, it was not easy to restrain them, so Zijuan instructed the little maid to serve shortbread and sugar cakes that were easy to restrain themselves.

While their master and servant were talking, Gu Lihua had already walked over with an umbrella, and saw Feng Lao'an sitting under the porch waiting for him, and hurriedly walked over.

When he arrived at the porch, after handing the umbrella to the little guy next to him, he flicked the moisture on his clothes, and saluted Feng Lao'an according to the rules, "My son has seen his mother, but he hasn't seen his mother for many days, is his mother's body okay?" How much do you have for dinner today?"

Feng Lao'an looked at Gu Lihua with a sincere look, swallowed back all the words that Fang Cai wanted to say in his mind, changed to a kind smile, and said, "I have a tough body, but it's nothing. It's still raining outside, the ground is damp, and your knees can't stand it after kneeling for a long time, so you better get up quickly! It's all fathers, and when they meet, they kneel, and when they see them, others want to laugh at you. ”

Zijuan got Feng Lao'an's instructions, and immediately helped Gu Lihua up from the ground, and ordered the little maid to bring a stool and chair, Gu Lihua sat on it, and replied to Feng Lao'an's words, "I don't know if my mother called her son here, is there anything she wants to tell her son?" ”

Feng Lao'an glanced at Gu Lihua beside him, and was glad that there were lanterns hanging around him, and the corridor was very brightly illuminated.

Feng Lao'an also saw clearly that Gu Lihua's face was full of displeasure, and he made a straight face, knowing that he had just gone to Cai's place, what must have happened to the two, but after all, it was a matter between their husband and wife, even if she was an elder, it was not easy to ask.

"Zijuan, go to the small kitchen and tell Mrs. Chen, let her bring the gruel that is still warm on the stove, as well as the pork rib soup that was boiled at night, and bring it over after it is hot." Feng Lao'an commanded Zijuan while saying to Gu Lihua.

"Sixth, what's wrong? Conflicted with Cai? Look at you, I'm afraid you haven't eaten yet, right?"

When Gu Lihua heard this, he smiled reluctantly and said, "Mother is really like a god, but her son has not eaten yet." It's just that Min Lan didn't give her son any anger, firstly, she didn't have that ability, and secondly, she wasn't that kind of person, Minlan had soft ears, and she had been taught by others these days and done something she shouldn't do. Does Mother know?"

Feng Lao'an pretended not to understand the meaning of his words, so he said: "What should be done and what should not be done, she should have a sense of proportion in her heart." Besides, who among the maids around her seemed to have big ideas? If Liulang wants to exonerate the Cai family, he has to find another way. ”

"Didn't the son find his mother? Didn't the mother tell her son about it? Min Lan is the wife of her son Sanshu Liuli who married back, and she is also your daughter-in-law, the housekeeper of the second room, if something happens to her, does her mother think she can be alone? Gu Lihua had a smile on his face, but his mouth didn't stop for a moment, eager to exonerate Cai's.
