Gu Bingyang had an errand ordered by the emperor to be busy, he didn't even bother to pay attention to how Mrs. Gu's funeral was arranged, and left the Gu Mansion in a hurry the next day.

Tao Anyun was named as the temporary acting mother, and the Cai family and the other three concubines Jiang, Zhang, and Liu had something in their hearts, and they couldn't say it at this time.

There are two positions in the main seat of the lobby in the front yard of the Gu Mansion, the temporary acting mother, Tao Anyun, who manages the Gu Mansion, did not sit on the main seat on the right, but sat in the first position on the left side of the main seat, and the personal maid Liuli beside her obediently served hot tea to her.

Cai and the three concubines all stood obediently in the hall, although it was early spring, but the doors and windows were open, and the morning breeze whistling from the front yard made them all tremble a little.

The Cai family is the most impatient, and if there is no Gu Bingyang's designation, as the only concubine in the Gu Mansion and the only woman who gave birth to a son, she will definitely sit in the position of the main mother, not stand here!

Silently gritting his teeth, Cai looked at Tao Anyun and spoke straight to the point: "Aunt Tao, I brought everyone here so early, but do you want to talk about the funeral?" Since the master has put you in full charge, then you should hurry up and say it, don't waste my time! ”

Tao Anyun glanced at the Cai family, and also looked at the Jiang family and them by the way, and found that they were all unhappy, and she didn't mind very much, after all, these women have always looked at her like this!

Contempt, disdain...... But now they can only look at it like this, which is really refreshing!

Taking a sip of hot tea, Tao Anyun heard Liuli whispering in his ear before he could put down the teacup in his hand: "She's here." ”

Tao Anyun hurriedly put down the teacup in his hand and saw a person walking into the lobby with the morning light on his back.

"What are you doing here? Waiting to be immersed in a pig cage? As soon as Cai Shi saw that it was Gu Qingyan, he thought that she was actually beaten by this little girl yesterday, and she was angry in her heart, and her mouth was even more unceremonious.

Gu Qingyan stepped into the lobby alone, and there were three stewards standing in the right corner of the hall, all of whom were elderly men, she had seen them yesterday, and they stayed here probably for the things that the housemother would have to deal with later.

She knew the Cai family standing in the lobby, as for the other three women...... A man with a round body, but with a rather beautiful face, must be the last Jiang to get started, although he is just a market girl, but there is a charm in his bones.

The other two middle-tall ones should be Zhang, and the shorter one is Liu, they are not the daughters of ordinary people, and even Liu seems to be illiterate.

Tao Anyun told her last night that there are not many women in the Gu Mansion, and they are not complicated, but they are in groups.

Under Mrs. Gu is the Cai family, the Cai family is very powerful by having children, followed by the second aunt Cai, followed by Tao Anyun, who has a higher status, and then the Zhang family, the Liu family, and finally the Jiang family.

Gu Qingyan retracted his gaze, ignored Cai, and walked forward directly.

Tao Anyun got up from the chair and leaned over towards Gu Qingyan and bowed to say goodbye: "Hello Miss Qingyan." ”

Gu Qingyan nodded slightly, sat down on the right seat without hesitation, raised his chin lightly, and looked at Cai and the others with a smile: "It's not the first time I've said that you lack rules and etiquette, Miss Ben is already sitting here, but there are still some people who don't know how to ask me for peace......"

"You're just a wild seed, what are you?" Cai exclaimed loudly, "What qualifications do you have to sit in the main seat and speak?" ”

The expression on Gu Qingyan's face did not change: "When my name was still on the family tree, I was still Miss Yan, and I was still your master." And you, as the aunt of the house, don't you know the rules at all? ”

Cai suddenly remembered that Gu Qingyan also used such words to beat her yesterday, but Gu Bingyang did not refute it, which made her cringe a little.

Although the Cai family has stopped talking, Gu Qingyan has no intention of letting Cai go, this woman has already put her to death from the beginning, so even if she can't be given another chance to make trouble, even if she doesn't kill her, she will definitely not be allowed to continue to be arrogant!

Paying attention to it in his heart, Gu Qingyan didn't let Cai's have a chance to speak, so he looked at Tao Anyun: "Aunt Tao, you are now temporarily in charge of the house, how do you think such a slave who doesn't understand the rules and etiquette should be punished?" ”

Tao Anyun knew it in his heart, so he echoed and said: "Back to Miss Qingyan's words, if the slave doesn't understand etiquette and doesn't follow the rules, naturally he can't stay, according to the rules of the house, so the slave should be sold." ”

Tao Anyun's words came to this point, and he met Cai's angry gaze, "But Mrs. Cai...... Ah, it should be Aunt Cai. After all, she is the biological mother of Miss Shu and Young Master Shu, and she always sells the truth......"

Before Aunt Tao's words could speak, Cai interrupted her loudly: "My determination is not Young Master Shu, he is Young Master Yan!" He is the only son of the master! ”

"If I'm not mistaken, Young Master Shu still hasn't gone up to the family tree." Tao Anyun calmly picked up Cai's words, but his always gentle expression was a little more aggressive, "On the genealogy of this family, only Miss Qingyan is the descendant of the Gu family who was written, so she is the only one who is Miss Yan." Aunt Cai, don't talk nonsense here! ”

"I'm not talking gibberish!"

Cai's is still crazy and arrogant, she never thought that Tao Anyun, who has always been indisputable, would dare to shout with her like this, so angry that her face was full of hideous expressions, "The master promised me that as long as he killed that slave woman, he would let me be the master's mother, and let my son be my son-in-law......"

Cai's voice stopped abruptly here, because she realized that she had said the wrong thing, so she closed her mouth with a puzzled face, but the aunts around her all looked at her with panicked eyes!

"Since you admit that you framed my mother and me, and that there are so many people present to testify, I think ...... It's time to punish you too. Gu Qingyan stood up from the main seat and approached Cai's step by step.

Cai stepped back in surprise: "You...... What are you doing? ”

Gu Qingyan stood in front of Cai's family, slightly hooked the corners of his lips, and then raised his hand and slapped Cai's family: "I won't do anything to you now, but everything you do needs to pay the price personally!" ”

Gu Qingyan waved his hand as he spoke, "Come on, bring this slave down." ”

One of the housekeepers standing in the corner walked to the door and waved, and immediately let a few family members run in, not caring about the difference between men and women, grabbing Cai's and dragging him out.

Cai screamed and cursed, but Liuli was smart enough to quickly step forward and gagged her with a handkerchief, allowing the family to drag her down.

The Jiang family, the Zhang family and the Liu family never thought that the wind direction in this mansion would become so fast, the day before they were still stupid and allowed others to bully the girl, but today they have already put up the shelf of Miss Yan, and more importantly, let Tao Anyun, the temporary position of the housewife, obey her!

The three aunts didn't want to be the second Cai, so they hurriedly bowed down to Gu Qingyan, and didn't even dare to look up at Gu Qingyan slightly.

The effect of this trick to kill chickens and monkeys is achieved, after Gu Qingyan glanced at the maid Liuli, he waved everyone to retreat, and Gu Qingyan and Tao Anyun were left in the spacious lobby.

Tao Anyun's mood was obviously very good, her seemingly indisputable face had a smug look, and her tone of voice rose slightly: "Cai's mouth has been unable to control herself for so many years, but in the past, there was a younger sister who carried the black pot for her, and now that her sister is dead, she has no one to drag into the water."

This time, the master will definitely not help the Cai family, after all, framing the master's mother is a crime that is forced to death. The lord will not let those dishonorable things get involved with him. So the Tsai family has gone on the big way. Miss's trick to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys is really well arranged. ”

Gu Qingyan could see from Gu Bingyang's attitude yesterday that he was completely cooked by a rabbit and a dead dog, so she teamed up with Tao Anyun today to make an example of killing chickens and monkeys.

This not only got rid of the Cai family openly, but also preserved Mrs. Gu's reputation and made her avenge her grievances, and Gu Bingyang couldn't make a fuss about this point and wanted to abolish her as Miss Yan.

But Gu Qingyan also understands that Gu Bingyang can't make a move, there must be a follow-up move, her father is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

Gu Qingyan put away his mind and looked at Tao Anyun with a smile: "I also like this trick to kill chickens and monkeys, Aunt Tao, do you understand?" ”

The smile on Tao Anyun's face froze, and she immediately understood that Gu Qingyan had something to say, which made her very embarrassed, because Gu Qingyan was a warning to her.

However, Tao Anyun has been in the mansion for many years, and he has been able to keep a low profile so far, so he is naturally very urban, and immediately bowed down to Gu Qingyan: "Please rest assured, Miss, the concubine has always been the head of Miss." The concubine understands in her body and mind that the young lady and the concubine are grasshoppers on the same rope. ”

Although it doesn't sound like there are too many problems, Gu Qingyan also understands Tao Anyun's warning, in the final analysis, they are just checking and balancing each other for the time being.

It's a pity that Gu Qingyan hates being checked and balanced, if she doesn't have any scruples, she can do things very resolutely.

"That's what Aunt Tao said." Gu Qingyan turned to look at Tao Anyun, and lightly changed the topic, "Cai's matter has been settled, tomorrow will be a funeral for my mother, and at the funeral, let Cai's kowtow and point out her guilt, so that no one will question the identity of Miss Yan."

Even if it's my father, he can only find other reasons to deal with me, and there is no way to use too open reasons. And then we all have enough time to prepare. ”

Tao Anyun nodded again and again: "What Miss said is true." The concubine felt that since the Cai family had been removed, then Miss Shu Yuwen and Young Master Shu should also be removed. ”
