"I'm afraid Green Buccaneer will have to stay with his grandmother for a while. She's got a cold, and she lives in a cramped place. You pack up all the things she usually uses, then go to the yard at home to pack up Ying'er's and Wen Lian's things, and send them there together. They can't fry medicine even if they're sick, and they can also prepare some pills and cold oil for them. "

Lan Zhi smiled and nodded. "This servant has already sent Big Sister Lu Kou's things over. These two little sisters' things aren't suitable for this servant to move around, so I sent my own things over."

He didn't expect that the usually quiet person would have such an exquisite thought.

I nodded my head in approval before continuing, "Also, since Mother Gu is already like this, I will reward her with a hundred silver taels. She will then send a letter to Gu San, telling him to come back quickly. It would only take three days for Hucheng City to arrive here, so it would be possible to send it after he returned. If there's anything you don't understand, ask Mother Song. Be careful not to let her pinch you! You can only use her as a reference. I will write a letter to Gong Er's wife in a while. Send it to me as soon as possible, take my cards and arrange for a carriage to go to the Manor to pick up their family. "

Counting the days, Gong Er's wife should be five months pregnant. Originally, I had planned to wait until the child was a year old before letting her come to the family mansion to work as a servant. However, I didn't expect that the matter with Mother Gu would happen so suddenly, so I had to change my plans at the last minute. I hope she doesn't blame me for being rude.

After instructing Lan Zhi, I took her and Mother Song to the room where Gu was placed.

Lan Yu stood in front of the bed with the half-grown child in her arms. The child was completely wooden, wearing a fat green cotton jacket, shiny sleeves, and a face very similar to the Gu family. She stared unblinkingly at Mother Gu, who had already breathed in and breathed out less, only slightly gasping for breath.

As soon as I walked in the door, I felt a strange sensation.

The child looked at his mother with eyes as cold as ice.

Broken words escaped from Mother Gu's mouth. Due to the weak sound, it was intermittent. Lu Kou looked at the child beside him and knelt down to listen.

Mother Gu kept mumbling a few syllables over and over in the room, and Green Bull's expression turned ugly as he looked at me.

"Mother Gu, she …" Call... "Second Young Master …"

I couldn't help but feel sad, so I quickly took a handkerchief to wipe the corner of my eyes.

This Gu Clan, what was there to say!

Normally, people would act muddle-headedly, but in the face of death, it was not because of their son's husband, but because of their family's righteousness. It wasn't enough to call her a loyal servant, but it wasn't enough to say that she was a treacherous servant. He ended his life just in a daze.

It was as if a teacup had been broken on the carpet. Not even a sound could be heard as it shattered completely.

The worst thing about her was that she was just like that! Not above and not below, mediocre buried a lifetime time.

"Tell Mother Gu that Second Young Master is fine, that he'll be fine for a few days!"

Lan Lingyun nodded at me, and did as I said. As expected, the Gu Clan became quieter.

The child tightly gripped the edge of the cotton-padded jacket and quietly took a step back with a puckered face.

His mother had reached the end of her life, but the one she was worried about was not him. One could imagine how sharp his heart was.

Looking at the back of the child lonely, I only feel astringent, more pity.

Looking at Mother Gu's pale face, which seemed to be growing weaker and weaker, I quietly instructed Lan Zhi and Mother Song, who were by my side, "Look, there's not much time left, go and prepare!"

Lan Zhi nodded and curtsied in agreement, her face showing a little sympathy. At the side, her mother was beaming with happiness as she saluted.

No noodles on dog meat!

He didn't even bother to look at what kind of occasion this was, he just rushed forward and fought for the authority!

I waved my hands towards the two of them in disgust. Mother Song opened her mouth wanting to say something, but was pulled down by Lan Zhi. The two of them were still muttering non-stop when they reached the door.

After a while, Lan Zhi came in with a tray filled with clothes. Behind her were a few young maidservants. Some of them were carrying a basin of water, while others were holding clothes. They followed Shi Mu through the door with submissive expressions.

I recognized the clothes on the plate, the true purple embroidered irises with pearls in the lapels of their collars buckled together with rabbit hair in the wind, and the ginger mandarin duck rattan skirt. It was the clothes I had given to the maidservants in my room last month that Lan Zhiyuan had planned to wear for the new year.

He took out his own clothes for the Gu Clan without any hesitation!

I couldn't help but look at Lan Zhi, who was standing in front of me.

Her jet-black hair was simply tied up, only having a willow silver hairpin stuck in it. On top, she wore a bean-green armor, and on the bottom, she wore a blue pleated skirt. It was clean and strict.

Not as thoughtful as Lan Yu, not as meticulous as the Green Bandits, but also a rare and wonderful person.

It would be very appropriate to give her my house.

A burst of activity from the woman outside the window was soon followed by scattered footsteps. The curtain on the door was pushed aside, and Mother Song led a few women to escort Aunt Mo in.

Seeing me sitting solemnly in the room, the few ladies were obviously stunned. Their loud voices suddenly quieted down as they gathered in front of the door in embarrassment. Aunt Mo was also surprised, she hurried over and greeted, "Little …" Miss … "You're here too …"

I raised my eyebrows.

Where should I be?

The nine red maidservants supporting Aunt Mo, the nine red maidservants in charge of carriages and horses in Grandmother's courtyard, the red maidservant Liu Hong in charge of financial affairs in her mother's courtyard, the young maidservant Fang Hua in the family letter's courtyard, the three mothers in the family letter's courtyard, the young wet nurse Wang in the family's courtyard, and, standing at the back, a familiar woman.

Who was this?

Why does it look so familiar!

But when he thought about it carefully, he couldn't remember which courtyard it was!

Other than the last woman, all of them were maidservants with a bit of dignity.

"Since you're already here, what should I do now?"

Before death, it was a custom for family members to stay by the side, and Mother Song was kind as well. Even though there was no lack of intention to take the opportunity to win her over, I didn't try to make things difficult for her.

All the servants in the room breathed a sigh of relief. They took turns to take a look at Mother Gu on the bed. After pinching the handkerchief and letting out a few tears, they left, leaving the three mothers in the family courtyard, waiting to help with the bed.

"At the very least, she has given birth to the righteousness of the family. Why is she so young …" Aunt Mo only gave a slight glance before sitting down by my side. She talked about how she had shed tears, and her eyes were completely red from being wiped, giving her a heartbroken look.

I didn't mean to play tai chi with her. I knew that she was just trying to pry into the cause of my mother's death. With Aunt Mo's ability, she would find out in less than a moment after leaving the courtyard. It would be better to just tell her.

"The Gu Clan was poisoned to death."

Aunt Mo didn't seem surprised at all. She lowered her head in thought before nodding her head heavily.

"Aunt …?"

Aunt Mo smiled bitterly, "Miss, this servant doesn't know, it's just …" A few days ago … Your servant drank enough to find out that there was poison in the medicine … "That's why this servant …"

Killing Madame Gu was of no benefit to Aunt Mo. On the contrary, it would only make her even more alarmed. Even though Aunt Mo did not really care about family and justice, she was still her own flesh and blood, so she would definitely not harm him.

It was not Aunt Mo's doing to her to do this.

"You also found poison there?"

I raised my eyebrows.

Aunt Mo frowned and nodded, "It was found in my medicine." "Every time I consume medicine, I use this concubine to raise a cat to test its medicine. That cat drank the medicine for less than an hour before breaking its intestines and dying."

Her thin eyebrows were tightly knitted, and her eyes were brimming with tears. Even though she had given birth to three children, she still had a pitiful appearance.

I chuckled. "With Aunt's temper, if there was such a story, she would have already made it known to everyone. Why is she being so humble this time?"

Aunt Mo raised her almond-shaped eyes and glanced at me. Her lazy smile returned to her face. She pinched a silk handkerchief and said, "If this isn't the first time, would you be able to trust me?"

As my thoughts turned, I suddenly felt a flash of inspiration.

"From the moment my concubine entered the room, from the time I drank tea to the time I was about to bathe in bean oil, all of them had been tampered with by someone."

Aunt Mo spoke as if she was used to it, her lazy smile carrying a trace of weariness.

I listened to Aunt Mo's voice and was lost in thought as I looked at the bed.

If that's the case, then my thinking isn't right!

Momentarily, Mother Gu's sickness tightened, and her small moans suddenly became louder. She curled up on the bed, her face turning purple, her chest heaving and heaving as if she was about to die.

The Gu family's child was pushed to the bed by the maidservants. The large cotton-padded jacket made him appear even thinner. He hunched his shoulders and crossed his arms, looking down at his mother lying on the bed with an expression that said he wanted to cry but didn't dare to.

Once upon a time, I was like a small boat. The wind and the rain were unpredictable, so I had to be pushed around by the wolves. Once, the bones in my stomach were broken, and like him, I could only silently feel the loss of my life.

I looked at the forlorn figure in front of me and felt the tip of my nose tingle.

"Miss … Miss … Do you hear me? "

I casually nodded towards Aunt Mo before standing up and leaving the room.

At noon, the winter sun was exceptionally clear and bright. When the thin, cold wind blew on it, it immediately gave off a refreshing feeling and gave off a refreshing feeling.

I mocked myself as I wiped the corners of my eyes with my sleeve.

In the past, with hatred, no matter what he did, he would always be unyielding. Even if it was extremely difficult, he would never shed a tear. Now that her mother had left, and her grandmother was about to leave the house, she had finally gotten her revenge.

Could it be that the less burden this person had, the more fragile he would become?

Aunt Mo was supported out of the door by her own servant, Jiuhong. Lan Lingyun was a step slower than Aunt Mo, so she stood not far behind me after greeting her.

"I know everything that Aunt said." Aunt Mo and I walked out side by side. "Since Aunt is already prepared for this, I can be more at ease. Your two younger brothers are beyond my reach, I will have to trouble Aunt to take care of them. "

Aunt Mo knew what I said was the truth. The letters were in Grandmother's hands, and the family was raised in her house, so they all splashed water and refused to burn. She nodded her head with a smile, held my hand at the entrance of the courtyard and said, "I know that little miss has been busy these days, and yet something like this has happened. At least we once had a master and servants match. "

The funeral is fake, and poking around my yard is real!

I smiled with gratitude. "I know that Aunt is an honest person, but Jiazhi is still young, so it's easy for him to get involved with these two things. You should just stay with me!"

Aunt Mo gave me a deep look. With a look of understanding, she smiled and kneeled down, "I will do as you say!" She was supported by Jiuhong.

"Miss, are you not going to check on the mourning hall?" Lan Ling supported me as we walked towards the rooms. "I don't mind keeping an eye on this one."

I whispered in Lan Li's ear, causing Lan Lingyun to widen her eyes. "Miss, can this work?"

"How do you know without trying!"

I smiled and squeezed her hand.

Lan Lingyun never thought that I would be so frivolous. After being stunned for a moment, her eyes suddenly turned red.

"What happened?"

I stood under the porch and put my arm around her shoulders and felt her shiver slightly.

I've grown so fast this year that I'm already taller than Lan Lan.

"It's been a long time since I've seen Miss so happy. All the servants …"

"I know!" I smiled and sighed. "I know you all are worried for me!"

Lan Lingyun wiped away her tears and followed me in.

The maidservants were busy changing their clothes while Lan Zhi stood by the window, directing the mothers to bring in a plank. When she saw me enter, she hurriedly stepped forward to pay her respects, her face a little gloomy as she asked, "Miss, do you think it's appropriate for this coffin to stop at Mother's house in the outer court?"

It was no longer an auspicious thing to die in the main house's courtyard. It was no longer possible to have the Gu family's coffin rest in my courtyard.

"No need. Once I'm done, I'll stop at the side room of Mother's mourning hall!" I waved my hand at her. "To tell you the truth, this is a loyal servant by my mother's side. I saw that my mother had gone to grief and became ill."

A loyal servant would naturally receive a generous reward. Regardless of whether the Gu family's children stayed in the Yang family or went out to work, they would all be praised as having a loyal and unyielding mother.

Lan Zhi hurriedly kneeled down and thanked him with red eyes. "This servant thanks Miss on behalf of Mother Gu!"

Even though the Gu Clan did not blame Lan Zhi for their death, and even Huang Lang had said that it would only alleviate the Gu Clan's illness for a moment, Lan Zhi still felt especially guilty towards the Gu Clan.

Everyone who still had a conscience wanted to redeem themselves.

Who was it that was so vicious to push this scene to happen again and again, controlling the Yang family from behind?

Or maybe, it was not only the Yang family.

After taking a look at the Gu family, Lan Zhi and Mother Song were accompanying me as we stood under the eaves discussing about some matters. A young maid was running towards us from afar.

"Miss … Miss … This is bad! "
