Chapter 375: After the Fact

By the time Ma returned to the upper room of the main courtyard, Wu Qiong was already convinced of Haitang, and accepted her proposal, solemnly saying that she would pay strict attention to her mother's words and deeds in the future, and try her best to stop her "confusion".

If she can't persuade her mother, she will immediately ask for help from others, including but not limited to her cousin Wu Ke, everyone in the Zhenguo Mansion, and the Hai family brothers and sisters.

Today, the Hai family rescued Wu Qiong from the hands of the Sun family's minions, and they had a life-saving grace for Wu Qiong. As long as the Hai family is not angry with Wu Qiong because of Mrs. Gui's betrayal, Wu Qiong can regard Haitang as her close friend. When needed, she can always send a letter to Begonia. Haitang promised that under the premise of doing her best, she could help her come up with ideas.

Wu Qiong got the promise of Haitang, and her heart suddenly felt a lot easier. As the bitter master who was affected by Mrs. Gui, although the Hai family was angry, they only complained about Mrs. Gui, and had no intention of angering her. This made her feel much better, so that she would not be at ease in the Hai family.

However, when Ma entered the house and told her that Mrs. Wednesday and Mrs. Thursday had just arrived to pick her up and take her back to the Zhenguo Mansion, she suddenly became nervous again.

The bitter master of the Hai family did not blame her, but the bitter master of the Zhou family ...... I'm afraid it's not so easy to talk to.

Wu Qiong lowered her head, beat a drum in her heart, and cautiously greeted the two Mrs. Zhou who came into the door. However, Mrs. Wednesday and Mrs. Thursday were as warm and caring as ever, and did not seem to blame her, and asked her about her injuries with concern, fearing that she was frightened.

Mrs. Wednesday and Mrs. Thursday chatted with Ma Shi for a while, and talked about the beginning and end of some things, how many casualties, how many losses, etc., and then took Wu Qiong back to the Zhenguo Mansion.

Wu Qiong glanced back at Begonia in a panic. Haitang nodded at her: "Sister Wu, go back and have a good rest, don't think too much." I'll see you another day. ”

When Wu Qiong heard this, she calmed down a little, and reluctantly squeezed out a smile: "Okay, then you must come." She reluctantly shook Begonia's hand before leaving with Mrs. Wednesday and Mrs. Thursday.

After they left, the Hai family regained its calm.

Aunt Cui led people to clean up the damaged things in the front yard, and Ma was calculating today's losses in the upper room, and the more he calculated, the more distressed he became.

Haitang took the opportunity to inquire about the specific news mentioned by Mrs. Wednesday and Mrs. Thursday when they came, and Ma replied casually: "The Zhou family has died several servants, all of whom are called Mrs. Nagui's pit." Hearing that she took her daughter out, Tete called the son of the girl who had served the old lady in the past, and asked the family not to tell the Zhou family what they were going to do. The coachman was also confused, he just listened to the mother and daughter at first, and ran to the other courtyard in private, but after being robbed, he continued to listen to her instigation and went to the other courtyard to catch the young lady of the Zhou family? Fortunately, he has not lost his conscience and dared not betray the master, when those gangsters wanted to hurt Miss Xuejun, he stood in front and lost his life, but it can be regarded as making up for it, and his family will not be kicked out of the house. It's just that in the future, I'm afraid that no one in the Guogong Mansion will dare to believe Mrs. Gui's nonsense anymore! ”

I see. If the person driving the carriage was the coachman of the Zhou family in the Zhenguo Mansion, then it was no wonder that the subordinates of the other courtyard would open the door. The coachman must have been one of the people she had seen lying on the ground, right? Because the mother had a master-servant friendship with Wu Zhou, the old aunt of the Zhou family, the coachman was willing to obey Mrs. Gui's dispatch, and even harmed the interests of the real master's family. Now that he has lost his life, it will surely become a negative example to deter the people of the Zhenguo Mansion. It will not be so easy for Mrs. Gui to repeat her old tricks in the future, and fool the descendants of the Zhou family in the name of her late mother-in-law.

Haitang straightened out his thoughts, turned his head and listened to Ma's continued chanting: "It's really a disaster!" Several people in the Zhou family died, and even Miss Xuejun injured her knee, and I heard that she can't walk now. Mrs. Thursday originally planned to bring her daughter to Beijing, but now she can only let Miss Xuejun stay in Chang'an to recuperate. ”

Haitang was taken aback: "Is Xuejun hurt badly?" I heard her say that she just broke a little skin! ”

Ma said: "Mrs. Wednesday just said it to her in person, can there be a fake?" Miss Xuejun must have refused to tell the truth because she was afraid that you would worry, but in fact, as soon as she returned home, her family knew that she had a serious knee injury. ”

Haitang was a little uneasy when she heard this: "I didn't notice it at all, I thought she just fell, and asked her to run to the garden to report to Sister Wenjun!" Shouldn't it hurt her injuries? ”

Ma Shi was surprised: "What is this talking about?" Hurry up and take a look, if it's really you, you'll have to pay the General Thursday Mrs. Thursday! When Madame came on Thursday, she didn't mention a word......"

Haitang immediately stood up: "I'll go find someone to inquire." As he spoke, he walked out of the upper room, and saw his grandfather Hai Xiya walking in from outside: "I heard about it in the yamen, how is your grandmother?" Is everyone in the family okay? ”

As soon as Haitang explained to her grandfather that everyone in the family was fine, Ma Shi greeted her: "Don't worry, my lord, everyone in the family is fine." Tang Tang, this girl, was obedient, and when she saw the gangsters fighting with the guards in the second courtyard, she immediately beckoned Jinhua and Caixia to close the courtyard door, and did not ask the gangsters to run to the back. ”

In the west chamber, Hu also came out to see his grandfather with his son Xiaoshi. Hai Changan is still dealing with the aftermath in the front yard, but the mother and son are not frightened and are currently in a stable mood.

Hai Xiya touched her grandson's little face, comforted her daughter-in-law a few words, and went into the upper room with her wife. He wanted to ask Ma what had happened today.

Begonia caught a glimpse of no one in the east wing and wondered. She thought that her brother Haijiao would stay at home today to protect and accompany Jin Jiashu, but she didn't expect that there would be such a big trouble at home, but he didn't even show his face. Is this going out? Where will he go at this critical time?

She lifted her feet and went to the second courtyard.

Aunt Cui just led someone to clean up the broken flower and wood troughs. Cui Dazhuang also took his son Cui Xiaodao to climb onto the roofs of the two small regression rooms to repair the roof tiles that had been trampled on by the gangsters. However, the wall that the begonia stepped on was not damaged. The two guards sent by the Zhou family divided into two routes, one stayed behind and retreated, continuing to protect Jin Jiashu in the main house opposite, and the other escorted the gangster back to the Zhenguo Mansion. At present, there are still several Zhou family soldiers in the front yard, but there is no worry that the protective strength of the Hai family will be weakened because of the loss of one person.

Haitang saw that Jin Jiashu was in the house, and Haijiao was sitting opposite him talking, secretly relieved, and hurriedly knocked on the door and entered the house: "Brother, where did you go today?" When the villain entered the door, you weren't there! ”

Haijiao hurriedly said: "When Grandpa Cao came back from outside, I heard that the carriage of the Wu family's daughters was intercepted by the Sun family. When he went home, he said that my cousin was very worried, so I went to the Zhenguo Mansion to inquire about the news. Who would have thought that after a round around the city, they would come to our house? When I heard about it in the Zhenguo Mansion, I almost didn't break out in a cold sweat! ”

Fortunately, the villain chose to use the hostage threat instead of directly breaking in with a knife to kill people, which kept the second uncle Hai Changan and the two Zhou family guards from being in a hurry. After hearing the news, the little sister brought someone back from the Zhou family's courtyard to help, which was even more unexpected.

The reef pulled the begonia up and down: "I heard that you jumped off the wall more than two feet high?" It didn't hurt, did it? ”

"Who spread this rumor? I jumped off the wall of this courtyard, and it was only a foot high, so how could I be easily injured? Haitang waved his hand, "Brother doesn't listen to other people's nonsense." I won't do anything I'm not sure of. ”

Haijiao raised his eyebrows and looked back at Jin Jiashu: "My sister said that you spread rumors, what do you say?" ”

Haitang looked at Jin Jiashu in surprise, did he say this?
