Liu Shi was almost crazy, she opened her mouth full of scars in vain, and a heavy exhalation sound came out of her throat: "Second lady, you say, what? ”

Looking at her appearance, Mao's was extremely comfortable, sitting on the couch on the side, and looking at the colorless Liu's for a long time: "The medical officer said, you yourself are cold, and you have not been well recuperated in the hospital for so many years, and these days you are overworked for the affairs of the house, and you are a thoughtful person, so you have broken your body, and now you have the disease of collapse and leakage for a long time and refuse to say......" Speaking of this, Mao covered his mouth with a handkerchief, and said for a while, "The medical officer said that the treatment was late, There's no way to raise it anymore. ”

Leakage? Liu was almost crazy, how could she have had such an illness, she was obviously good before, how could Mao say that.

But no matter how hard she tried, she could only spit out a few words: "I haven't, I haven't ......"

Mao's eyes swept over her, leaving only a sneer: "Aunt Ping doesn't have to deny it, the maids around you have told the truth, saying that you are afraid that the old lady will think you will be unlucky if she finds out, and she drove you to Zhuangzi, so she hid it, and she didn't think about it." ”

She shook her head with a regretful face: "It's really pitiful, the old lady agreed to wait for the general to return to the house, and then he will carry you as an aunt, but unfortunately this ceremony has not been carried out, so I will ......"

Liu's face turned a little whiter, and her body was shaky, she knew what Mao's words meant, and she was finished.

Mao looked at her at a little penetration, got up very satisfied, took the maid out, and looked back before going out: "Yes, there are guests in the house who want to come to live in two days, if Aunt Ping is still sick, it is better to go to the side hospital to raise, don't teach the guests to feel inappropriate." ”

After she finished speaking, Shi Shiran went out of the room, leaving Liu Shi sitting there in a daze.

It's Gu Mingzhu, it's Gu Mingzhu's bowl of decoction, she actually poured herself a sterilized decoction!

But what can she do now, even if she desperately says that Gu Mingzhu did it, I'm afraid that no one will ask Gu Mingzhu for any justice for her.

She looked left and right, and found that the maids who were serving beside her had been replaced at some point, and now the house was headed by the Mao family, but I was afraid that these were all done by the Mao family.

At this moment, Liu finally knew that she had no way, and those wits and wisdom that were originally self-righteous were useless at this moment, and she could only lie here powerlessly and wait for their mercy.

In Songshou Courtyard, Old Madam Gu's face became more and more ugly: "You said she was a leaking disease?" How had I never heard of it before! ”

Although Liu looked weak, his body has always been strong and there is no pain, how could he suddenly get the disease of collapse and leakage, and he is pregnant and can no longer conceive.

Mao's face was flat, and he didn't raise his eyes: "The few who served beside her said truthfully, she had become popular a while ago, just to hide from the old lady and not teach the old lady to dislike her." ”

Old Madam Gu looked at Mao suspiciously, only to see that Mao, who usually looked shrewd, did not have any look on her face, calmly, as if she was saying something irrelevant, which made her feel a little bottomless, and she didn't know whether to believe her or not.

"Would you like to go over and have a look?" Mao didn't seem to see her suspicions, and just said calmly.

Old Madam Gu retracted her gaze and said coldly: "No need, I can't have a body anymore, and it's useless to carry my aunt, just let her go back to the side courtyard, if it's not good, let her do some work, it's useless to keep it left and right." ”

A concubine who can't have children, no matter how smart and eye-catching she is, is useless, she is not as good as an ordinary maidservant, it is useless to raise, she will not waste money and silver to raise a useless waste.

Mao was not surprised that the old lady turned her face and did not recognize people's style, didn't she treat her like this at the beginning, this couldn't be better, she turned her head and ordered the maid a few words, and the maid went out.

Mrs. Gu didn't want to say more about the Liu family, maybe she really felt unlucky, and talked to the Mao family about something else: "In a few days, Da Lang will come back from the Xishan camp, and now the long room is really not the same, one is like a living dead, and the other has become like this, you can't just let the long house be gone, and you should choose a few honest and docile people to stay in the long room to serve, tomorrow you let the housekeeper bring the right person, I will pick one." ”

Mao didn't raise his head, didn't speak, and looked indifferent, which made Mrs. Gu very satisfied, if you want to be a housewife in the Gu family, you have to obediently obey her words, in the past, Luo's was like this, and later Liu's was like this, and now Mao's must be like this.

She looked at Mao Shi very satisfied, and then asked idly: "Why haven't you seen Erlang these days?" He hadn't been here in a while. ”

Mao's face did not change: "He went out of the house every day to eat and drink, and he didn't return until early twilight, and he lived in the West Cross Courtyard and never came." ”

Old Mrs. Gu became proud, when Gu Yuan first arrived in the capital, she obeyed Mao's words, and even her mother couldn't catch up, and now she is like this, she didn't listen to herself in everything, but just rewarded Gu Yuan as a concubine, and the Mao family was no longer a threat, and now she can only be a second lady in name only, and Gu Yuan doesn't even enter her room.

Thinking of this, she almost laughed out loud, and looked at Mao arrogantly: "You are busy with the affairs of the house, and you don't need to come over every day to say goodbye, just let Afu come and serve." ”

She just wants to promote Afu, so that not only can the second room have an heir earlier, but also let Gu Yuan listen to her even more, which is naturally better, so even if the Mao family is in charge of the middle feed, it is only what she holds in the palm of her hand.

Mao still didn't raise his head, but his body stiffened slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Yes, I will let her come over tomorrow to serve the old lady." ”

Old Madam Gu looked at her sad appearance and laughed: "Okay, it would be better if she could give birth to Erlang earlier, and finally our Gu family can have a future." ”

Mao lowered his eyes and did not speak.

After returning to Qingxue Courtyard, Mao ordered someone to send a few good clothes to the West Cross Courtyard, and even let people spread the word: "Please go to Songshou Courtyard tomorrow and serve in front of the old lady." ”

The maidservant who sent the clothes came back and said that Ah Fu happily took the few pieces of clothing, but she was deliberately picky and said that it was not as good as the few pieces of Ruyi brocade that the second lady asked her to buy a few days ago, and tomorrow she would go to Songshou Courtyard to greet the old lady after serving Gu Yuan to freshen up and eat.

The maidservants looked at Mao worriedly, afraid that she would be angry with Ah Fu again, but Mao's face was indifferent at this time, and she didn't even have half of her anger, not at all like before, but they were very surprised.

No hurry, it will be different soon! Mao sat on the side of the desk and put down the letter sent by Qingzhou.
