The servants standing in the courtyard didn't dare to make a sound, and lowered their heads in fear, waiting for Gu Mingzhu's orders.

I just waited for a while, but I didn't see Gu Mingzhu come out, but I saw Mama Liu and Mama Lin, who were in charge, coming over with Mama Han.

They also stood by the corridor with a cautious face, not daring to speak loudly.

There was a creak, and the door opened.

Gu Mingzhu, who was dressed in a goose yellow skirt and had a plain face, walked out with Abi Xiaokui, and the little maid on the side took the bed and put it in front of the door, she went over and sat down, but her eyes were cold and looking at the servants standing in the yard.

"The eldest lady is well." The dozen or so people who were summoned were busy bowing down, as if they were afraid that they would be stared at by Gu Mingzhu if they were slow.

Mama Liu and Mama Lin on the side also bowed down, not daring to be a little lazy.

Gu Mingzhu looked at the two housekeepers and smiled: "Two grandmothers, get up, you have worked hard all these years." ”

Mama Liu and Mama Lin are both old people left in the eldest princess's mansion, and they can be regarded as loyal over the years, helping Gu Mingzhu with some chores in the house, and they are not controlled by the Luo family.

Mama Liu and Mama Lin got up and looked at Gu Mingzhu who was sitting on the Hu bed.

They have heard a lot of things these days, but it wasn't until this time that they really felt that the eldest lady was different!

is obviously a homely robe, and there is no fat powder jewelry, but it makes people feel that their face is compelling, and they dare not look at it directly.

This really doesn't look like the big lady who is unruly and ignorant!

Thinking about the actions of the eldest lady in the past few days, these two grandmothers were even more frightened for a while, and they lowered their heads and didn't dare to say more.

Gu Mingzhu ignored their speculation, and his eyes were cold and glanced at the neat servants kneeling.

"You are all specially selected by your lady to serve in my house, and you think you were all smart and colorful before." Gu Mingzhu looked at them and said slowly.

"You have been serving in my house for some years, how am I treating you?"

The servants glanced at each other at a loss for a while, but they listened to Gu Mingzhu's tone and was still kind, so they had the courage to say: "The lady treats the maid very kindly, and she is really grateful." ”

Those few also have some eyesight, and they are all busy.

Gu Mingzhu smiled: "There is no need to flatter, I don't treat you very kindly, but I have never treated you badly, I didn't bother to ask about the affairs of this mansion before, but I ......"

As soon as her words turned, her face instantly turned terrier, and she stared coldly at the dozen or so people: "It's just that now the mutton fat white jade pillow given by the emperor in my room is gone, and I can't see it all over the house, only a few of you haven't searched it, I think some of you have unclean hands and feet." ”

The dozen or so servants were so frightened that their faces were as white as paper for a while, and they shook like chaff and cried out for injustice, swearing that they had never taken it.

Just because they all know that the mutton fat white jade pillow is not an ordinary royal gift, it is specially given by the first emperor to the eldest princess of Xuanyang, and it is priceless.

Seeing them like this, Gu Mingzhu's smile became colder and colder: "You all said that you didn't take it, then I had to send you all to Xifu and hand them all over to Mrs. to dispose of, after all, you can be regarded as an accomplice." ”

"The lady spares her life, spares her life, it's really not the maid's ......"

"It's not the maid who took it, but the maid has been on an errand these days...... "When they heard that they were going to be sent to Xifu for disposal, they were so frightened that they shouted again.

They still remember the fate of those handmaidens a few days ago, and no one wants to repeat the mistakes of the past.

Mama Han understood what Gu Mingzhu meant, and she stepped forward with a cold face: "The thief who stole the jade pillow is among you, if you can't hand him over, you will all be accomplices, and you will be disposed of by Madame." ”

Those dozen or so people who were originally picked out by the Luo clan were also embarrassed in the past, and when they heard Mama Han say this, they were stunned for a while, and looked at each other in disbelief.

Gu Mingzhu was not in a hurry: "Since you haven't figured it out, then think about it carefully, and come to see me after you figure it out." ”

She waved her hand: "Let them be taken to the lower room and locked up, so that they can think about it themselves." ”

Mama Han summoned more than a dozen servants with big shoulders and round waists to come up and drag the servants who were already frightened and stunned down, and locked them in the lower room alone one by one, without food or drink, and no one was allowed to visit.

Mama Liu and Mama Lin never expected that Gu Mingzhu had asked them to come and watch such a play, and they were a little dumbfounded for a while.

When they came back to their senses, they were busy praying: "Lady, don't you dare to wait." ”

They were afraid that Gu Mingzhu would suspect that they had stolen the jade pillow.

Gu Mingzhu laughed: "Two grandmothers, get up, I invite you to come just to teach you to see, those are the people sent by Xifu." ”

"It's not just them, most of the people in this mansion are from the West Mansion," Gu Mingzhu said, his face turned cold.

"There are also those who bought from Ya Po and entered the mansion, but I am afraid that most of them were arranged by the West Mansion, and now you use these people under your hands."

A dignified eldest princess's mansion, all the shops in the grange are in the hands of others, all the money purchased is at the disposal of others, and even most of the people who serve are other people's people, which is like being strangled to death, and can only be at the mercy of others!

Mama Liu said tentatively: "Why don't you send all those people back to Xifu?" ”

Gu Mingzhu shook his head: "Over the years, Xifu has secretly placed its own people everywhere in the mansion, and now there are their people everywhere in this mansion, where can they be clean." ”

"What's more, we have sent so many people back, and after all, we still have to be served, and how can the people who buy them open their hands and feet."

She won't send everyone back, she has to leave something irrelevant, and she has to reassure Roche so that she can make the next step.

She said to the three grandmothers: "In the future, I will bother you to pay more attention, go down to help me watch this courtyard, and the important things must not let the people over there do anything." ”

She still has very important things to do next, and she must not let people do anything crooked!
