Chapter 397: Turning Point (2)
In the evening, the sky had already darkened, and the rain that had been accumulated in the clouds for a long time was released at once.
In the Ruiyue Courtyard, Aunt Hong sat on the soft couch in the house, using the food delivered from the small kitchen of the Ruiyue Courtyard.
Originally, the dinner in the house was made by the big kitchen himself, and it was brought to each room and courtyard, but now the body of the housekeeper serving in the big kitchen is still under the corridor, and no one dares to go over to collect the body, and the work of the big kitchen has stopped.
The mothers-in-law and maids all shrank in their respective courtyards, for fear that after going out, they would be discovered by the gangsters lurking in the house and taken back.
"Madam, you see that it is raining so heavily outside, and the master has to go out! Madam, you should persuade the master! ”
Aunt Hong's maid, who was serving her closely, knelt beside Aunt Hong's soft couch, crying with tears in her eyes, as if something big had happened.
Aunt Hong held her chin with her hand, glanced intently at the maids and ladies waiting in the house, and saw that they all looked nervous and had serious faces, as if something big was about to happen.
"What's wrong with all of you?"
"The lord of this mansion has already laid out people in advance, no matter how powerful those villains in the mansion are, they can't break into this Ruiyue courtyard, you just relax your mind and do what the lord tells you to do, and don't mention a word about the things on the side!" Aunt Hong said, and was about to get up, but was hugged tightly by the maid kneeling at her feet.
Aunt Hong didn't move forward a bit, lowered her head and glanced at the maid, and continued.
"What are you doing here? Although the master has gone out, those officials who are ambushed around Ruiyue Courtyard will still protect us. ”
"Madame, you are not unaware! When the slave maid went out, she saw a few maids and women in the house dead under the porch, and the gangsters who broke into the house, they not only killed those people, but also called a few young and beautiful maids to sleep with them. ”
As the maid spoke, her voice became quieter and quieter, so small that Aunt Hong gradually couldn't hear clearly.
Aunt Hong listened to the maid say this, the expression on her face changed suddenly, and she asked the maid kneeling at her feet with a solemn face.
"Is this true? Those maids and wives who are waiting at the bottom have really been arrested a lot by them?"
"Back to Mrs. 's words, what the slave and maid said are all true, if Mrs. doesn't believe it, you can call the mother-in-law who went to patrol outside the courtyard today to come over and ask clearly."
The maid didn't dare to look up at Aunt Hong in front of her, so she had to lower her head and slowly reply word by word.
Aunt Hong didn't expect that those gangsters who broke into the mansion would be so arrogant that they dared to rob the maids who were serving in the mansion and caught them in their own rooms.
These people are too much, if she catches these people personally, she must call these people to the same fate as Qi Feng Cheng, anyway, she will not let them go easily.
Aunt Hong returned to the soft couch and sat down, and continued to ask the maid.
"Can you deliver the news from the back room? What the hell is going on with the old lady?"
Aunt Hong's question, the maid kneeling at the bottom trembled more and more.
"Madam, it's the slaves and maids who are useless and fail to protect the old lady. The maid who was waiting said that after the old lady quarreled with Feng Cheng of the Qi family in the house, Mama Liang, who was waiting beside the old lady, fled with the old lady through the side door of the back cover room, and the direction of escape was the old lady Lin in the hall.
But before the old lady could get to the courtyard, Qi called the maid to go over and bring a message to Mrs. Lin, telling Mrs. Lin not to take Mrs. Qi in. ”
Even Old Madam Feng couldn't protect it, and those waiters in the back room were maids, what did they eat?
Aunt Hong was already angry in her heart, but in front of so many maids in the house, she couldn't get out of her way, just said.
"Send a loyal maid to the back room to inquire about the news, if anything happens to the back room, you must come and report me as soon as possible!"
That maid didn't dare to respond, now in the back cover room, Qi and Feng Cheng are in the house, heavily guarded, where can one or two little maids break in?
The little girl didn't dare to take the matter, but she didn't dare to directly refuse Aunt Hong, so she said.
"Auntie, the back room is heavily guarded, and the slave maid is only worried that the maid sent out will not be able to break in, and may be arrested by the Qi family, or please ask the people inside to hand over the news, right?
Originally, when Mrs. was housekeeper, she had placed a lot of people in the back room, and now it was time to use them. ”
Aunt Hong 'um', and handed over the rest to the little maid standing beside her.
After the maid left, Mrs. An, who was originally serving by Aunt Hong's side, was summoned by Aunt Hong, and Aunt Hong was ready to hand over some important matters to Mrs. An.
"Mother An, you are an old man in the house, and now that something like this has happened in the house, I am afraid that you are duty-bound!"
"Someone came to report that the old lady is now on Mrs. Lin's side, I don't believe the words of those little maids, I still want to invite your old man, go to the hall, and bring me a letter back."
Mrs. An hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed to Aunt Hong's request.
"Madam, now that the old lady is missing in the house, in addition to inviting the old lady to go to the hall to find out the news, I also want to ask the lady to send some more family servants out, and continue to search for the whereabouts of the old lady while avoiding the gangsters in the house."
In the east wing, Feng Laoanren was lying on Gu Yutang's couch and fell asleep, Chunyan was waiting beside Feng Laoanren, and after seeing Feng Laoanren asleep, he came to Gu Yutang's side and talked about it with Gu Yutang.
"Three girls, please accept the old slave! If it weren't for the three girls who took us in, I'm afraid we would have been arrested by the gangsters sent by Mrs. Qi a long time ago. When the old lady came over, she fell a few times, I am afraid that she can't walk, and she needs to ask a doctor to take a look. ”
Chunyan glanced back at Old Madam Feng who was lying on the couch, then quickly turned her head and said to Gu Yutang in front of her.
"Miss Chunyan, it's not that our girl doesn't take in Old Madam Feng, it's just that there are so many villains in this mansion, and our east wing is not the safest place in the end. Let's ask Miss Chunyan to think of ideas, discuss with the old lady, and go elsewhere! ”
It was not Gu Yutang who replied to Chunyan's words, but A Luo who was waiting by Gu Yutang's side.
Indeed, as A Luo said, Old Madam Feng is injured now, and the East Wing is really not the best place to live, if the villains know that Old Madam Feng is hiding in the East Wing, I am afraid that they will be found soon, where will they be given a chance to breathe?
After thinking carefully in his mind, Gu Yutang still wanted to send Old Madam Feng out, but there were already many gangsters lurking in this mansion, and if he wanted to get out safely, he was afraid that it would be impossible.
Only by sending Old Madam Feng to a safe place and taking good care of it is the most important thing.
"Miss Chunyan, it is indeed not the best to let Grandmother Feng continue to stay in the East Wing. Although the east wing is a remote place, it is not impossible if those gangsters want to find it. ”
"Now that Grandmother Feng is injured, she still needs to be healed as soon as possible. Presumably, apart from my grandmother's, only Aunt Hong's is the safest place to live. ”
Gu Yutang sat on the soft couch, and after feeding Feng Lao'an people to drink water, he said this to Chunyan beside him.
"Three girls, Ruiyue Courtyard is far from the east wing, and there are at least a few sandwich roads and corridors. If our group walks down the cloister like this, I'm afraid that those villains lurking in the mansion have already discovered our traces. ”
Because Old Madam Feng's body was precious and could not withstand damage, Chunyan could only veto Gu Yutang's opinion.
The east wing is too far away from the Ruiyue Courtyard where Aunt Hong is located. If a person accidentally encounters a gangster who breaks into the house halfway, the consequences will be unimaginable.
No matter what Gu Yutang said, Chunyan would not take Old Madam Feng's life to take the risk!
Seeing that Chunyan disagreed with his opinion, Gu Yutang had no way but to say.
"Miss Chunyan, although there are so many gangsters in the mansion, those gangsters are not patrolling the mansion all the time.
Most of the gangsters are in the back room, waiting for the dispatch of the Qi family and Feng Cheng, so there must be very few gangsters wandering in the mansion.
The east wing is indeed a long way from Ruiyue Courtyard, but as long as a few of us are not afraid, we can still send Grandmother Feng over safely. ”
