Mrs. Zhang was angry both inside and outside today, and no one was left to have dinner in Langyuan Hall. The whole room quietly left.
Mrs. Lu was supported by Granny Li before she returned to Yingcheng Courtyard. She cried and told Xu Gucheng what happened today. After speaking, her eyes were as red as peaches. How could she have thought that her daughter, who had always been well-behaved and sensible, would do such a thing and have such a terrifying scheming!
Xu Gucheng's expression didn't change after hearing this, he comforted Mrs. Lu with a few words in a slow voice, coaxed her to fall asleep, and then quietly exited and entered the study.
A black shadow flashed past, and Xu Gucheng's face lost the patience and kindness he had shown when he was in the main room, and he asked in a deep voice: "How is the investigation going?"
The black shadow said: "The fourth lady seems to have done a lot of tricks from the past to the present... The people in Yilian Court are very tight-lipped and cannot pry out the details. There is not much contact with Aunt Du, but Aunt Du always sends people to Yilian Court to inquire. Condition."
Xu Gucheng didn't pay much attention to Xu Qian in the past. He only thought that she was smart and well-behaved, and she was loved by Mrs. Lu, so he thought of setting up a good marriage for her in the future.
He began to pay attention to this concubine after the last investigation of Lu's poisonous muteness. After Zhang Xian's incident, he became more suspicious.
He would not believe the confessions of the two maids that day. Even though their performance was very true and did not seem to be fake, he firmly believed that they would not dare to do this without anyone's support.
"You go check on what happened in the Wang Family Liyuan today. While Si Niang is on lockdown, try to find a way to change the people in her house. It will be easier to know what happened inside in the future."
The dim candlelight reflected Xu Gucheng's elegant facial features. His eyes were clear, his face was as calm as water, and he was very elegant. But at this moment, the calm water in his heart seemed to turn into ice. He had never thought of checking on his family, but Siniang's behavior made him afraid.
He couldn't bear to see that truth.
After fourteen years of upbringing, if that were the result, he didn't know how to face it.
At this moment, Xu Qian smashed everything she could in the room. The ground was full of broken porcelain pieces. She also threw some precious jewelry on the ground. She cut the quilt on the couch with scissors and tore it to pieces.
She was unwilling and reluctant, but she didn't dare to say a word and could only endure it all!
She'll go crazy if she's grounded for three months!
Ding Langjun will return to Bianjing in three months to study in Tianfu, and she will have no chance to contact him. And auntie, no, that bitch Ding will definitely tell Mr. Ding that she is the mastermind of the farce in the opera house, and Mr. Ding will definitely hate her!
Everything she had was lost!
I lost my grandmother’s protection, my mother’s trust, and Ding Langjun’s favor! If she just sits there and waits for death, she will become useless!
Everything was because of Ding and Xu Nuo. They were the ones who told everything. They were jealous of themselves and they couldn't bear to see her! That’s how you hurt her!
After getting angry, Xu Qian combed her messy hair, fixed her makeup, and ordered people to collect the broken porcelain pieces in the house, spread them neatly in the courtyard, and let all the maids and women in Yilian Court kneel on them.
The maid knew that as long as her wife was angry outside, she would be very angry when she came back. She did not dare to disobey and knelt down tremblingly. After a while, her knees were completely red. A young servant girl cried out in pain, but Xu Qian stabbed her thigh with a pair of scissors, causing her to faint on the spot.
In the past, when Xu Qian was angry and threw something, she always made Zijuan kneel on it. Now that Zijuan is gone, she has no choice but to vent her anger on others.
The torture in Yilian Court was carried out quietly and ended quietly.
Xu Qian punished the people in the house several times for their incompetence in different ways. It was at this time that Ding stepped in and replaced several maids and wives from Yilianyuan. Xu Qian thought that these people could not bear the torture and asked for help, so she did not take the matter seriously and only used money to keep their mouths shut.
In early April, Xu Nuo first became a disciple of Mrs. Ye, and then received a letter from Hu Ling.
"Second Senior Brother didn't lie to me. Senior Brother did come to Kaifeng Mansion, but he had just left when I went back! But as long as Second Senior Brother is not allowed to find Senior Brother, it doesn't matter if I don't see him... It's a big deal for my grandfather to leave without saying goodbye. Angry, he ground me for half a year and prohibited me from leaving Hu's house. But as soon as I took out the crutch, he immediately said that it was just a joke before, and in the end he only banned me for ten days... Have you seen Zhu Shang recently? I just returned to Beijing. I know that he actually has a good relationship with Yan Sihan, a famous Mr. Beijiang, I really have good taste."
Hu Ling wrote many pages eloquently, all about trivial matters in life, which shows that she has been very bored recently.
Xu Nuo ordered Chuntang to get pen and ink and write back a letter, focusing on some things about Zhu Shang.
Her handwriting has improved greatly and is no worse than Hu Ling's. She was very satisfied after reading it and put it into the envelope herself after the handwriting was dry.
There are three things she must do after traveling through time. One is to cure her mother's throat, the other is to restore her own reputation, and the third is to punish Xu Qian and expose her.
Now that she has done all three things, she has fulfilled all her responsibilities to the original owner. These days, apart from learning tea ceremony, practicing calligraphy, studying chess records, and exercising, there is nothing else to do. I really enjoy the beautiful life of a lady.
Chuntang went out with the envelope, and Qiyue came in with fruits: "Madam, I went to Manchun Tower yesterday as you ordered, and found that Miss Zijuan is already the number one girl in Manchun Tower. She asked me to return this to you. "As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper from his sleeve. It was a Jiaozi with a face value of fifty guan.
After learning that Zijuan was sent to prostitution by her brother, Xu Nuo hesitated for a long time and took fifty guan to redeem her. Unexpectedly, on the first day she went to Manchun Tower, she accepted a customer and actually became a prostitute. It was a pity. I had no choice but to give her fifty thousand dollars.
She hates Zijuan as much as she hates Xu Qian. After all, everything Xu Qian does has an equally smart Zijuan's idea, and Zijuan is involved in all the bad things Xu Qian does. But Xu Nuo would rather beat Zicuckoo with his own hands until her nose was bruised and her face was swollen, than let her be humiliated in a place like this and ruin her life.
She was not shocked when she heard that Zijuan had become the number one in Manchunlou, but felt sorry for her in her heart. Such a smart person can do his best no matter what he does, but his fate is so bumpy.
The next day, Xu Nuo got up early, changed into men's clothes, went out from the side door, and went straight to Manchun Building.
It's already a bit hot in Suzhou in April. People have changed into summer clothes, and women have begun to pick up round fans. The willow trees are no longer as green and velvety as they were before, and have already sprouted bright green branches and leaves. The pear and peach blossoms have faded, with only a few remaining flowers on the branches, but the peonies, crabapples, and peonies are in full bloom.
On the second floor of Manchun Building, there are several ladies covered with makeup, with exposed jade arms and green-white hands holding round fans with pictures of beauties on them. They are sending away last night's guests.
Seeing Xu Nuo walking in, several people burst out laughing: "Master, it's still early! My sisters have been tired all night, so you can come later."
