Rebirth: Return to Houfu

Chapter 15

Facing the old lady's sudden accusation, Chen Ziyun felt more and more uneasy, feeling that something happened that she didn't know.

However, in front of the old lady, Chen Ziyun didn't dare to ask more questions, nor dared to hesitate, and quickly stated: "The old lady misunderstood. How dare my daughter-in-law not take your old man seriously? That is absolutely impossible. Just now my daughter-in-law I didn't speak, but I felt too inexplicable for a while, thinking that the housekeeper had already arranged it. I didn't expect that the second girl hadn't gotten the newly purchased clothes until now, and the daughter-in-law would send the housekeeper for questioning after returning home, ordering him to do it as soon as possible. "

"Oh? In this way, you have indeed explained it? In that case, Madam Su, send someone to call the housekeeper. Let's ask him face to face and see what's going on." In order to win over Gu Fang Ling, Su's high profile is unprecedented.

An imperceptible panic slid across his face, Chen Ziyun was really caught off guard by the old lady's successive attacks.She didn't believe that the old lady didn't know that what she said was just a scene, knowing that she was speaking casually and perfunctorily, but she wanted to confront the housekeeper...

Chen Ziyun didn't dare to take any chances anymore, and honestly admitted: "The second girl's matter is due to my daughter-in-law's lack of thoughtfulness, and I hope the old lady will forgive me."

Su Shi didn't really want to do anything to Chen Ziyun. Seeing that Chen Ziyun had admitted his mistake, he snorted coldly and waved his hands impatiently: "Okay, this is over, I don't want it to happen again. Otherwise, you You don't have to be Madam Hou anymore, just be your second aunt!"

Chen Ziyun's whole body was shocked, and he didn't dare to call anymore.

"Don't just say it, you have to really remember it in your heart." With a meaningful glance at the groveling Chen Ziyun, Su sent off, "Go back first, and don't disturb the two brothers and sisters, Chang Lin and Fang Ling, who are eating. .”

As the mistress, she was ordered not to disturb the younger generation's meal... Chen Ziyun's throat was choked, and it took him a long time to force a smile, and replied: "Yes, the daughter-in-law will not disturb the mother's cleanliness."

"Remember to send someone to prepare Fang Ling's clothes and send them here." Afraid that Chen Ziyun was not angry enough, Su Shi emphasized with a look of course.

Chen Ziyun gritted his teeth secretly, squeezed out the word "yes" from the gap between his teeth, turned around and left quickly without looking back.If she stayed here for a while longer, she would definitely choke with Su Shi.At that time, it will be her who will suffer.

"This Mrs. Chen is really getting more and more outrageous." Mrs. Su shook her head, not knowing whether to tell it to herself or to Gu Changlin and Gu Fangling present here.

Naturally, Gu Fangling would not answer.Even if Su's view of her changed a little now, it might suddenly change again at some point.It was in her plan to provoke Su Shi and Chen Ziyun to discord, but it was not careless.

Gu Changlin didn't say much about Su Shi's sigh, and asked Gu Fangling directly: "Did you let the girl go to the cashier to collect your monthly money?"

"This..." Gu Fangling was very surprised, with some hesitation on his face, "Does Fangling also have a monthly salary? But in the past five years, she hasn't..."

"The dignified daughter of Marquis Gu's mansion, how come she doesn't have a monthly salary?" Before Gu Fangling could finish her sentence, Su Clan became angry again.With an expression of disbelief, she turned her head and shouted, "Mother Su, call Chen Ziyun back immediately!"

"Grandmother, please don't." Madam Su was about to respond, but she heard Gu Fangling stand up and stop her, "Fangling herself did something wrong and deserves to be punished. It's not my stepmother's fault."

Madam Su couldn't help clapping her hands for Gu Fangling in her heart, and she also nodded to persuade her face: "Old Madam, if you invite Madam Hou back again and again, it will inevitably delay your time. The young master and the second girl are still hungry. With your stomach full, why don't you three eat first. As for Mrs. Hou, I will leave it to the old slave to ask some questions in private, and ask Mrs. Hou to return all the monthly salary owed to the second girl?"

I have to say that Madam Su's words are very touching.Not only did she fix Chen Ziyun's fault, but she also quietly helped Gu Fangling get all her monthly salary for five years back.The most important thing is that it hit Su Shi's heart.

No matter what Madam Su's original intentions were, in Su's ears, she was undoubtedly helping her win over Gu Fangling.In addition, it is also logical to push all past faults to Chen Ziyun, leaving her alone.After all, the Su family also acquiesced in Chen Ziyun's punishment of Gu Fangling.

With a look of satisfaction in her eyes, Su Clan still did not forget to pretend to be sullen and lowered her face, and ordered imposingly: "You go and watch her do it yourself, and don't let her cheat the world again, obediently obediently and secretly disobey."

Seeing Madam Su retreating, Gu Fangling's eyes turned red instantly, and she looked at Su Shi with gratitude on her face: "Grandmother, Fangling..."

"Fang Ling needless to say, it's because grandma didn't think carefully. She didn't expect that there would be someone in Guhou's mansion who would dare to be harsh and serious. If she is wronged again in the future, Fang Ling doesn't need to endure it. Just come and talk to grandma. Say. Even if grandma is too old to care about things, as long as she hasn't swallowed her last breath, she can still be your master a few times!" In the past and present, it was the first time that Su made a promise to Gu Fangling.No matter how short this commitment is, it is extremely rare.

Gu Fangling cried, pinching the inner thigh with one hand, and wiping away tears with a silk handkerchief in the other hand.Chu Chu's pitiful expression was somewhat pitiful.

Gu Changlin frowned slightly, his hands on his knees slowly clenched into fists, and his lips were even more tightly pursed.

Seeing Gu Fangling's reaction, Su's heart was relieved, and there was a decent and loving smile on his face: "Silly girl, why are you still crying? With grandma and your brother around, who can really bully you?" ?”

"Fang Ling knows." Sniffing, Gu Fangling really couldn't cry anymore, so she simply stopped tossing her legs.

Everything that should be said has been said, and the superficial work that should be done is also not missed.Su Shi was very satisfied and waved the meal.

This dinner, on the surface, looked harmonious and enjoyable.But to be honest, Gu Fangling actually doesn't know what to eat.

Being able to eat at the same table with Gu Changlin was something that Gu Fangling couldn't wish for, and she felt happy from the bottom of her heart.But facing Su's, Gu Fangling still lowered her head, and Wen Wen quietly held the one or two dishes that were placed in front of her.It's to keep the etiquette, and it's to avoid Su Shi's face.

Otherwise, Gu Fangling wasn't sure if she could keep a fake smile on her face.Obviously, the Su family is no better than Chen Ziyun in her eyes, but she has to force herself to act again and again.This involuntary sense of powerlessness lingers around Gu Fangling all the time and won't go away for a long time.

It was a bit late for Gu Fangyao to return home today.As soon as he got home, he was called by Chen Ziyun.

"It can be regarded as coming back. What happened in Prince Mu's mansion? Why did Gu Fangling go back to the mansion early alone? How could the old lady's attitude towards Gu Fangling suddenly change?" Chen Ziyun held back when talking about what happened tonight. Filled with resentment, he grabbed Gu Fangyao and asked anxiously.

"How do I know what's going on? Who knows what kind of shit luck Gu Fangling had, and was caught by His Highness the Crown Prince? Mother, please don't rush to ask me about the crime, I am also upset right now What! You don’t know, I’ve lost all my face in the Prince Mu’s Mansion, I’m just a pitiful creature to be ridiculed by others!” But when Gu Fangling thought of her kneeling on the ground, she was standing beside His Royal Highness At that scene, Gu Fangyao gritted her teeth, full of resentment.

Why is Gu Fangling more noble than her?She was a concubine five years ago, and she couldn't compare to Gu Fangling's status as a concubine, she recognized it.But the current Gu Fangling, how can she compare with her?Disrespecting stepmother's notoriety?Or was it the unbearable past of being exiled in Licheng for five years?

It was only afterward that Gu Fangyao realized that when she knelt at the Mu Wang Mansion, she not only knelt down to His Highness the Crown Prince, but also knelt down to Gu Fangling who was standing beside Wei Qingmo.The more Gu Fangyao thought clearly, the more unstoppable anger erupted, and even the jealousy towards Gu Fangling could not be restrained.

"What? Your Highness the Crown Prince? How could Gu Fangling..." Chen Ziyun was so frightened that his eyes were stunned, as if his throat was blocked, and he couldn't speak a word.Impossible, absolutely impossible!Even Gu Fangling five years ago was not qualified to cling to His Highness the Crown Prince.What's more, Gu Fangling, who is now notorious?
"I don't know, I don't know, don't ask me. I don't know anything, and I'm going to be bored to death!" She had already said what she knew, and she didn't want to speak again, let alone mention the three words "Gu Fangling".Covering her ears with her hands, Gu Fangyao's dignity and generosity in front of people instantly shattered, leaving only hysterical yelling.
