"Ahem..."
Gu Jiu coughed, and felt that all internal organs were about to be coughed up.
Qingmei was nervous and worried, "Girl, you can't be bothered! Now that the master is in charge of you, those who want to murder the girl will definitely not end well."
Gu Jiu was too weak, so he could only lean against the bed, panting, and said: "Father, Tao Hong was originally a servant girl by my wife's side, and my wife gave Tao Hong to my daughter when she saw that I lacked a stable person.
The daughter thought that since she was trained by her wife, she must be extremely capable, so she entrusted her with a heavy responsibility. Not only is she in charge of her daughter's belongings, she is also in charge of all the affairs of the Zhilan Courtyard.
My daughter usually has some ideas and can't get in the way. After all, she was sent by his wife, so if she doesn't look at the monk's face or the Buddha's face, the daughter must give her some face.
The daughter pampered her everywhere, she was called a servant girl, but in fact she was doing the work of the master of Zhilan Courtyard. The daughter gave everything, but what she got in return was her scheming and evil intentions.
My daughter didn't understand why, why she wanted to kill me. Is it because her daughter has been sick for too long and has to serve a patient every day, making her bored? "
"Woo..."
Tao Hong desperately shook her head and struggled, no, that's not the case.
Tao Hong understood everything at this moment, why Gu Jiu refused to take medicine before, and why she wanted to seek life and death. The answer is here, she wants to get rid of herself.
Tao Hong cried out, she was stupid, she was stupid, she didn't see Gu Jiu's purpose until now.
Xie Shi stared at Gu Jiu firmly.
Such vicious intentions, such a trick to kill with a knife. She really underestimated this girl before, she kept quiet, and suddenly made such a big commotion, the purpose was to get rid of Tao Hong, the maid she had placed in Zhilan Courtyard.
Xie pinches her palms, at this moment she can't be in a hurry, can't panic, and can't make Gu Jiu, a little girl, proud of herself.
Mrs. Xie coughed lightly, attracting Mr. Gu's attention, and then said: "Master, this is just the second girl's one-sided words, maybe the truth is not the case. I know Tao Hong, she is an honest and responsible person, and she definitely can't do it." To murder the master."
Gu Jiu followed the words, "My wife is right. I don't believe that Taohong would do such a mortal thing. So I asked Xiaocui, the maid, and Xiaohong, the maid who made medicine. Xiaocui, tell the master Ma'am, what does Taohong tell you on weekdays?"
Xiaocui knelt on the ground, trembling. She is not smart, but she also knows what to say next, if she is not careful, it will kill her.
She secretly looked left and right, one side was the girl, the other side was the wife, which side should she stand on.
Xie's light voice came to her ears, "Your name is Xiao Cui? You have to be careful with what you say, and you have to be responsible for what you say, understand?"
But Gu Jiu said: "Xiao Cui, tell me everything you know. You are my servant girl, as long as I have breath, no one will bully you. And there is a master, and the master will make decisions for you. "
Master Gu was silent and did not refute.
Xie was angry, and the little girl made a film, pointing fingers at Sang and scolding Huai.
Gu Jiu coughed, her face was as pale as snow, and she was so weak that she seemed to die in the next moment.
She looked at Master Gu with hope, longing, and helplessness in her eyes.
Master Gu snorted, "Xiaocui, let me listen to what Taohong told you on weekdays. Don't make a false statement. If I let my lord know that you are making up nonsense, I will definitely beat you to death with a stick."
Xiao Cui shuddered all over at the word of beating him to death with a random stick.
"Slave, I don't dare to say a single false word. Sister Taohong has always ordered the servant to serve the girl by her side, and not to let Sister Qingmei and Qingzhu get close to the girl. She also ordered the servant to keep an eye on the girl's words and deeds. If the girl asks Whatever happens, no matter how big or small, must be reported to her."
"Woo..."
Tao Hong stared at Xiao Cui with resentment in her eyes.
Xiao Cui shrinks back, lowers her head, not daring to look at Tao Hong.
Master Gu expressionless, said coldly: "Go and call the servant girl Xiaohong."
Xiao Hong was called, and as soon as she entered the room, she quickly knelt on the ground, "I have seen the master, madam, miss."
Master Gu kept a stern face, not angry, "Xiao Hong, I heard that you are in charge of decocting medicine?"
Xiao Hong nodded, "Report to Master, yes."
"All the medicinal materials are given to you by Taohong?"
"yes!"
"What kind of medicinal materials are used? Are they moldy and spoiled medicinal materials?"
Faced with this question, Xiaohong hesitated.
Snapped!
Master Gu slapped the table with his hand, startling everyone in the room.
Even Xie Shi's complexion changed accordingly.
Xie clutched the handkerchief tightly, how long had she not seen the master get so angry.
"Why don't you talk?"
"Slaves, servants are afraid!"
Xie secretly hated, "Baby maid, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Master Gu looked at Mrs. Xie, Mrs. Xie immediately became flustered and tried to calm down, "My lord, I am also in a hurry."
Master Gu hummed, "I'm asking, you don't have to speak."
This blocked Xie's way.
Xie secretly hated and blamed all this on Gu Jiu.
Damn girl, at such a young age, her mind is really vicious.
Gu Jiu looked haggard, but her eyes were calm. She secretly glanced at Mrs. Xie, her eyebrows lowered.
You do the first grade of junior high school, and I do the fifteenth grade, which is fair.
Besides, it's just a maid, why should the wife get so angry.
Xie was scratching at the armrest of the chair, so she knew that Gu Jiu must have done it on purpose, as expected.
Master, you were deceived by the second girl.
Xie Shi was so angry that he was in a hurry to get angry, but he couldn't expose Gu Jiu.
Gu Jiu is sick like this, if she says that Gu Jiu is planning everything to get rid of Tao Hong, can the master believe it? Certainly not. On the contrary, they would think that she was making trouble out of nothing, deliberately provoking the relationship between father and daughter. She might even suspect that everything Tao Hong did was ordered by her.
Xie suffered a dumb loss, and his heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys ached with qi.
She stared at Gu Jiu, cursing in her heart, bitch!
Mr. Gu is still interrogating Xiaohong, "Tell me everything you know, or you will be tortured."
Xiaohong trembled for a moment, she secretly looked at Taohong who was pinned to the ground and could not move.
Sister Taohong, who is usually arrogant, is in such a mess at the moment.
Xiaohong suddenly realized that Taohong was over! Even if you have a wife, you can't keep Taohong.
She can't finish with Tao Hong.
Xiaohong made a decision in a blink of an eye, and kowtowed again and again, "Your maidservant, I will explain everything to you. This maidservant is in charge of decocting medicine for the girl in the Zhilan Courtyard. Sister Taohong will hand over the ingredients to this maidservant, and this maidservant is only responsible for decocting medicine."
"Aren't the medicinal materials that Taohong gave you moldy and spoiled?"
Xiao Hong quickly said: "Not all of them. Only a few times are moldy and spoiled medicinal materials. Most of the time, they are inferior medicinal materials cleaned out from the warehouse. These medicinal materials are usually used by sick servants."
There was anger burning in Master Gu's eyes.
He didn't expect that he was just a little negligent, and his own daughter was trampled like this by his servants. Use inferior medicinal materials to decoct medicines for your daughter-in-law, good, very good!
Master Gu pinched the armrest of the chair, "Go and arrest all the people from the medicinal materials warehouse, from top to bottom. Today, I want to see who gave them the courage to take the medicinal materials and give them to me. For girls."
"yes!"
The housekeeper, Gu Quan, didn't even look at Xie Shi, and directly took people out to arrest him.
