Nong Zhaohua

Chapter 168

Seeing that Yanxiu's eyes fell on him, Mrs. Gong gave him a disgusted look at first, thinking that Yanxiu was really confused, Mrs. Liu has been dismissed by the Duke of the country now, but he didn't know how to avoid suspicion with Mrs. Liu, and rushed forward To curry favor with Duke Guo, he followed the Liu family so easily. I really don't know how he, the Marquis, did it.

She caught a glimpse of the old farmer and the old woman behind Yan Xiu looking at her suspiciously. Aunt Gong turned her eyes and glanced at them. After looking up and down a few times, she didn't pay attention at first. When the black mole appeared, Aunt Gong's heart suddenly tightened, and then her eyes widened, and then she hurriedly avoided her gaze, and even turned around in fright, as if she didn't want the old peasant couple to see it. her face.

From Gong's expression, Yan Xiu knew that Pei Xuan had found the right person. He made a fist with one hand and coughed lightly on his lips, and asked Gong:
"Aunt Gong, do you recognize these two people?"

Gong's eyes were in a daze, and he glared at Yan Xiu, pretending to be calm and said: "What do you recognize or not? How can I recognize two earthen goods dug out from an unknown field?"

Yan Xiu snorted coldly, and asked the two old farmers and women, "What about you? Do you know her?"

The old farmer and the old woman looked at each other, and the old woman nodded and said, "I know, I know."

When Mrs. Gong heard the old woman speak, she immediately became furious, pointed at the old woman and said, "Where did the old woman come from, what nonsense are you talking about? Everyone said they knew me. Do you know who I am? I said something wrong, but Don't blame me for being rude to you!"

The old farmer and old woman flinched from her fright. Yan Xiu took a step forward and said to Aunt Gong, "What is Aunt Gong doing? Aren't you in a hurry to admit to others that you have ghosts in your heart? If you really don't know them, then Why are you so nervous? Or, in fact, you have already recognized them in your heart, but you are just embarrassed to say it."

Seeing this, Gong Ruquan came to help Gong, and said to Yan Xiu: "Is Hou Ye here today to vent his anger on that woman inside? Huh, let me tell you, this is not your Changning Marquis Mansion. The Duke is still here, where is your turn to speak?"

Yan Xiu stared at Gong Ruquan for a long time, Gong felt guilty, and hurriedly pulled Gong Ruquan behind him. Seeing that Gong's expression was not right, Gong Ruquan felt a little puzzled, but he didn't dare to say anything.

Xie Guozhang didn't understand what kind of mystery Yan Xiu was trying to play, and seeing that Gong's expression was wrong, he snorted coldly: "What's going on? Who are these two people?"

Yan Xiu winked at the old couple: "You tell the Duke yourself who you are."

The old woman who spoke before stepped forward and pulled the old farmer to kneel down. Although she lowered her head, her voice could be heard by everyone in the courtyard, and she said:

"The old slaves and their husbands were grazing along the border. They had a small business in Beijing 20 years ago. The old woman knew a craft and was dedicated to delivering babies and taking care of them. More than 20 years ago, the old woman gave birth to Miss Gong. A child, Miss Gong is the concubine of a rich family, and she said that the master will not go for a long time, but she is pregnant with someone else, and the child can't be seen, so she asked me to deliver her and gave birth to a boy."

Xie Guozhang didn't react at first, he only looked at Yan Xiu in doubt, then at Mrs. Gong, and suddenly came back to his senses: "Who is this Miss Gong?"

He looked at the ashen-faced Gong in astonishment. Xie Guozhang finally realized that something was wrong. Gong gave birth outside...Gong was indeed Xie Guozhang's concubine at the beginning, but Liu gave birth to him two children , the relationship with him is not bad, so he didn't go to Gong's place in those years or two, that is to say, Gong's adultery conceived a child with others, and gave birth to that child, which was still a boy Son!
Aunt Gong jumped at the old woman like crazy, and shouted sharply: "Nonsense! This is slander! This is slander! You must have taken money from someone else and deliberately slandered me here! Say, who is it?" Ask you to harm me? Is it Lord Yan? Is it you?"

Gong Shi didn't expect that she felt like she was in heaven just now, but within half a day, she was sent from heaven to hell by Yan Xiu.

"Duke, don't trust him. I don't know these two people at all. It's Yanxiu. Yanxiu deliberately found someone to wrong me! For decades, I have kept myself in the mansion. He couldn't find any mistakes, so I wanted to use him. Two or 30 years ago to confuse the public."

Xie Guozhang was a little puzzled by Gong's clarification, looked at Yan Xiu, and felt that Yan Xiu might do something to find someone to wrong Gong in order to vent his anger on Liu, he hesitated for a while, not sure what to do.

Mrs. Gong rushed forward and pointed at the old peasant couple, yelling viciously: "Come here, take them down for me, how dare you frame my wife and beat me to death with sticks!"

Mrs. Gong couldn't wait to exercise her rights as the Duke's wife. The guards in the yard looked at each other, wondering whether they should obey the words of the Mrs. Gong who had not yet completed the formalities. Instead, the old woman retorted loudly:

"It's not nonsense. I can tell you where Miss Gong lived, when she gave birth, and after she gave birth, she gave us a large sum of money to let us leave the capital."

Mrs. Gong didn't want to give her a chance to speak, so she laughed angrily: "Huh, what are these? As long as you have investigated where I lived in the past, you can talk nonsense, right? It's so funny, even I was almost deceived by you Now, what is the production, what is the money for you, no one in this manor knows, before I entered the government, I lived in poverty, where did I give you a large amount of money? It is clearly nonsense, deliberately wronged and slandered me! You must be punished Someone instigated it. Tell me, who is it? If you don’t tell me, I will imprison you and interrogate you carefully. After a layer of skin peels off, you will always be able to speak.”

The old woman glanced at Yan Xiu, and seeing that Yan Xiu didn't want to stand up and speak for them, the old woman looked at the guards all around her again, fearing that she and the old man would really be arrested and tortured, she stood up straight away said:
"I, I'm not talking nonsense. I delivered the baby, weighing six pounds and seven taels, with a red birthmark on the buttocks and a mole under the armpit. You gave me 1000 taels of silver to take the baby Send it to your hometown for you, then leave the capital with the money, and don’t come back. My old man’s sister lives in a border town. After we took the money, we followed the rules and went to the border town. We have lived until today, but we dare not There is a lie."
