Chapter 030: The Real Murderer

"Grandmother, she's going to kill me!"

As soon as the words came out, it was like a shock, and everyone in the audience was so shocked that they all dropped the bamboo chopsticks in their hands and looked at Gu Yu and the maid who was lying in front of her.

The maid was also shocked and stunned, her face was as white as paper, and she was stunned for a while, before she turned around and knelt down to Old Madam Gu, begging for mercy with an innocent face: "Old Madam, the slave is wronged, the slave is just a lowly servant, how dare you poison Eleven Niang?" ”

"Poison?" Gu Yu smiled and answered, then looked at the old lady, "Grandmother, I didn't say just now that she was going to poison me, I just said that she was going to kill me." ”

Old Madam Gu's face immediately sank, and she slapped one hand heavily on the collapse, and shouted, "Someone-"

The goddess was frightened, fell to the ground in a hurry, and begged for mercy: "The old lady spares her life, the slave just said it wrong in a hurry, the slave really didn't want to poison Eleven Niang." ”

"Since you said that you didn't poison it, then you ate that plate of goat's milk jelly!" Old Madam Gu said, and pointed to the plate of snacks with plum blossoms placed in front of Gu Yu.

When the old lady's words fell, the maid hesitated for a moment, her eyes were heavy, and she really wanted to serve the plate of goat milk jelly, but Gu Yu stopped in front of her and said to the old lady: "Grandmother, I want to know why she wants to kill me?" ”

Old Madam Gu's expression changed slightly, as if she was thinking about how to deal with this matter, Gu Erlang, who was beside her, suddenly stood up and proposed: "Mother, if this plate of goat milk jelly is really poisonous, why don't you take a dog to taste it, whether it is wronged or not, you will know after a try!" So saying, he squinted his eyes as if to look at the maid.

The maid suddenly trembled, and the old lady Gu also felt reasonable, nodded, and was about to call someone, but at this moment, a stern voice came from outside the door.

"What happened?"

As the voice came in, Old Madam Gu immediately stood up.

Gu Yu turned around and saw a thin old man jumping into sight, the old man's beard was gray, and he looked like he was almost old, but his eyes were bright, and his posture was straight, and he could see that his young temperament was elegant and his demeanor was still the same. There is also a middle-aged man who is over forty a year beside him, and like his second uncle, he is wearing a large-sleeved shirt, a lacquered sarong crown on his head, a pendant hanging from his waist, and a heavy platform on his feet.

This is her grandfather and uncle.

Seeing his grandfather's appearance, Gu Yu's eyes were a little moist, and his heart was also slightly hot and burning.

In her previous life, she had never felt the warmth of any relatives in the Gu Mansion, and it was not until the day of her grandfather's death that she was unexpectedly called to the point where she collapsed, and her grandfather said a lot of words with tears in his eyes while caressing her face, and finally quietly stuffed a small makeup box into her hand.

"Ah Yu, grandfather is old, it's time to go, but grandfather doesn't worry about you......"

Grandfather doesn't worry about you!

Grandfather watched her until the last breath of the day, and his cloudy eyes seemed to be full of guilt and worry that he couldn't let go.

She didn't know what her grandfather was guilty of, but she opened the box and found that it was full of title deeds and jewelry.

Although the title deeds and jewelry were most searched by the old lady, the love and care revealed in her grandfather's eyes before he died were deeply imprinted in her mind and lingered......

She thought, what did her grandfather care about in his heart about her granddaughter, but how much did he know about the Shen family?

She had to ask her grandfather for clarification!

At the moment when Gu Yu was slightly distracted, she didn't expect the maid who was still kneeling behind her to suddenly rise up, and a sharp dagger was pressed against the back of her heart......

"Eleventh sister, get out of the way!"

A sudden exclamation made her reflexively bend down, and the dagger grazed her back, and at the same time, Gu Yu's body turned around and stepped on the handmaid's abdomen fiercely.

The maid immediately spat blood from her mouth, fell to the ground, and slid a few steps away.

There was a sudden scream in Yixin Hall, and they were stunned one by one, especially some of the little ladies who had already covered their faces with handkerchiefs and hugged each other.

This rabbit's rise and fall came really suddenly, even the old lady Gu, who had always been calm and unfazed, was so shocked that her body trembled slightly, Gu Yu had practiced martial arts with the Shen family since she was a child, she knew it, but this was the first time she had seen such a skill.

Old Madam Gu was so frightened that she couldn't speak for a while, there was silence in the field, but the old man of the Gu family was the first to react, and strode to Gu Yu's side, while stopping in front of her, she stared at the maid, and shouted: "Come on, take down this maid and interrogate it strictly!" ”

At the sound of the order, several subordinates rushed in with spears in their hands, and when they were about to escort the handmaid out, they saw that the handmaid suddenly stared at the apricot eyes, and it turned out to be seven thieves bleeding and died violently.

"Lord Lang, she's dead!" One of the subordinates probed the handmaiden's breath and replied to Gu Laolang.

Old Man Gu glanced at the maid, then turned his gaze to Old Madam Gu again, his eyes were disappointed, and he paused for a while before asking Gu Yu, "Ah Yu, are you okay?" ”

"Thank you grandfather, granddaughter is fine!"

At this time, Zhang Shishilang, who was in the banquet hall and the young people were drinking and chatting, also hurried over when he heard the news, and when he just rushed to the door of Yixin Hall, he seemed to be afraid of something and suddenly stopped.

"Twelve Lang, you come in and take Ah Yu out of here!" Gu Laolang suddenly ordered in a warm voice.

Zhang Shishilang said yes and hurriedly walked in.

And when Zhang Shishilang's white-clothed fluttering jade tree in the wind jumped into everyone's sight, the little ladies who were still in panic all focused their eyes on him.

Gu Sanniang even stopped between Gu Yu and Zhang Shishilang, and shouted in a coquettish voice: "Cousin, when did you come, don't let anyone tell me!" ”

Seeing Gu Sanniang's unreserved style, the face of the old man of the Gu family changed.

The Zhang family immediately strode over, pulled Gu Sanniang into his arms, and reprimanded sharply: "What are you talking nonsense, Twelve Lang was invited by your grandfather, and he has important matters to discuss, and it is not your turn to ask about the affairs of the elders!" ”

"A-Niang, when did my cousin become my elder?" Gu Sanniang didn't understand the meaning of her mother's words at all, but she was still unconvinced.

At this time, no one noticed that Lord Gu Laolang's face was even darker, and suddenly, a heavy sound of breaking sounded in the hall, but it was Lord Gu Laolang who smashed a wine cup to the ground.

"This is the daughter you taught!" He pointed at the Zhang family, and then at the old lady Gu, "This is the good granddaughter you cultivated!" ”

The faces of Zhang and Old Madam Gu were all white, and the hall was silent, and they didn't dare to make a sound.

Everyone knows that although the old man took Gu Lu's as the continuation, he did not favor him, especially since the death of the second son left by the original old lady, the old man either stayed in the healthy Taicheng office, or with those celebrities and gentlemen, he wrote and indulged in the landscape.

The servants have seen the old man's solemn and stern appearance with a straight face, but it is rare to see him lose such a big temper, and for a while, the whole Yixin Hall was silent, and a family banquet was not happy.

After the old man ordered the body of the maid to be carried out, he dispersed the crowd and called Gu Lu to the room.

"I heard that you asked the Zhang family to send someone to search the entire courtyard of the Gu Mansion last night, what is the matter?" After closing the door, the old man asked directly.

Gu Lu had a lot of displeasure in his heart, and replied truthfully: "It's not because of your granddaughter Eleven Niang, a few days ago, the concubine held a flower-viewing banquet in Gu's mansion, and these Eleven Niang and Shi Niang didn't know what to quarrel with by the Jinlu Pond and both fell into the pool, after waking up, Shi Niang insisted that someone pushed her, and the concubine ordered someone to investigate the matter......

Before she could finish her sentence, the old man asked, "Then what did you find?" ”

"Last night, I found out three suspicious maids...... Old Madam Gu replied.

The old man sneered: "Since you have found out the murderer, then why do people dare to commit murder at the family banquet today, the tip of the knife is pointed directly at Eleven Niang, if it weren't for Chongzhi's reminder, Eleven Niang's own cleverness, she would have ...... now" Speaking of this, he seemed to be heartbroken, and said, "Lu's family, back then, you instigated your son to do such a thing, and it was already a stain on my Gu family, and the root cause was planted, and now you are so ruthless that you want to kill Eleven Niang, how can you be so vicious?" ”

The old lady was shocked when she heard this, and replied with a miserable face and an incredibly aggrieved face: "I want to kill people and kill people? If I want to kill her, I will kill her, how can I let her live until now? Gu Bi, if you don't like me, why slander me like this? ”

Seeing that her expression did not seem to be fake, the old man also softened his tone, helped her sit down, muttered for a long time, and suddenly said: "Madam, we are already very sorry for the Shen family, her daughter, you have to treat each other well, although Ah Yu is a little wild and uninhibited, but she is still a good child, you teach her carefully, she may not become a famous beauty in our Wu County." ”

The old lady sneered when she heard this: "Wild and vulgar, that's why I used to think so when I was blind, your good granddaughter has opened seven tricks since she woke up from falling into the water once, and now she doesn't know how to do it with others, but she has learned to start playing tricks!" ”

At this time, the old lady was already determined in her heart, Gu Yu pointed out at the banquet today that the maid was the murderer, and she deliberately let the old man see it with her own eyes and embarrass her, she was taking revenge.

The old man looked stunned, thoughtful, and asked, "What do you mean by this?" ”
