"My lord, it's all my fault. It's my lack of supervision. I mistakenly believed in Tao Hong, a lowly maid. You should punish me."
Xie is very smart, she has already seen the situation clearly, gave up struggling, and planned to abandon the pawns to protect the handsome.
Tao Hong opened her eyes wide, staring at Mrs. Xie.
"Woo..."
Ma'am, you can't give up your slaves. The servants did all this according to your orders.
Clap!
Chun He, the maid standing behind Xie, jumped out suddenly, and slapped Tao Hong hard on the face.
After the beating, Chunhe pointed at Taohong and cursed: "Taohong, you have disappointed your wife so much. Why did your wife tell you to serve the second girl with all your heart, but you did this behind your back? Waiting for something devoid of conscience. You should die!"
"Chunhe, step back! The master hasn't spoken yet, so it's your turn to jump out and speak."
With a straight face, Xie scolded Chunhe angrily.
Chunhe looked guilty and fearful, "Madam, I'm sorry, this servant is too angry, so I couldn't hold it back. This servant used to work with Taohong. She has a good nature, and she works diligently and swiftly. I don't know why, but when she arrived at Zhilan Courtyard, she It turned out to be like this."
Gu Jiu sneaked a look at Chunhe, the big maid next to his wife was indeed unusual. This sentence is clearly pouring dirty water on Zhilan Courtyard.
Tao Hong, who used to be diligent and quick in the upper room, became black-hearted when she came to Zhilan Courtyard. It is definitely not the wife's problem, but the Zhilan Courtyard, and Gu Jiu's problem.
Gu Jiu held a handkerchief and wiped away tears, "It's all my fault, anyway, I won't live long, so let me die."
"Don't talk nonsense." Master Gu scolded Gu Jiu sharply, but there was concern in his tone.
Master Gu also glanced at Chunhe, who was hiding behind Xie with a guilty face.
Xie quickly said: "It's all my concubine's fault, I didn't manage them well. Master, you should punish my concubine."
Mr. Gu said expressionlessly: "The maidservant next to you should be disciplined and disciplined. It's the rule for someone to jump out before the master speaks."
Xie choked. She never expected that Mr. Gu would not give her face, accusing her of failing to discipline the maids around her in front of so many people.
Xie's face was not saved, so his face was naturally ugly.
Chunhe was terrified in her heart, she was doing something bad with good intentions, and it was over.
"Sister, sister, are you okay!"
Gu Ting, the elder brother of Gu Jiu's mother and compatriot, rushed in.
Gu Ting is the eldest son of the family, ranking third in the family.
At the age of sixteen or seventeen, he has a slender figure, handsome features, and a gentle face, like a scholar. It's just that he can't speak, and when he speaks, he will be exposed.
"elder brother!"
Gu Jiu called out weakly.
Seeing Gu Jiu's weak appearance, Gu Ting was filled with anger, "Sister, tell me who bullied you, and I'll kill her."
"presumptuous!"
Master Gu patted the table, "I am here for my father, who do you want to kill?"
Gu Ting was not convinced in his heart, but still greeted him respectfully, "I have met my father, madam. My sister is being bullied, shouldn't the person who bullies her be killed?"
Master Gu said with a straight face, "My father is not dead yet, and it's not your turn to make decisions in this mansion."
Gu Ting lowered his head and fell silent. He looked at Tao Hong, his eyes filled with rage. He has long disliked Tao Hong, and his sister stopped him before, not letting him make trouble.
Now that this servant girl has been exposed, if she is not killed, it will be hard to get rid of the hatred in my heart.
Tao Hong's face suddenly turned pale.
Tao Hong was very clear about the temperament of the third young master Gu Ting.
When Gu Jiu was protecting her before, Gu Ting would make trouble for her again and again.
Now, Gu Jiu turned his back on her and wanted to get rid of her, but Gu Ting was the one who passed the knife. No, Gu Ting was not willing to let Gu Jiu get blood on his hands, he would kill her himself.
"Woo..."
Ma'am help.
Tao Hong looked at Mrs. Xie eagerly.
Mrs. Xie glanced at her, the meaning of this glance was too complicated, Tao Hong, who was still struggling, suddenly seemed to accept her fate and stopped moving.
Tao Hong lowered her head, her face was ashen. If she continues to struggle and try to escape, his wife Xie will definitely let her whole family be buried with her. If she obediently accepted her fate, she would be the only one who died, and the lives of her family would still be preserved.
Taohong cried and resigned to her fate!
Mrs. Xie nodded secretly, Tao Hong was indeed a clever maid, her training was not in vain.
"Master, this concubine thinks that the most important thing now is to invite the doctor to treat the second girl. The other things, the master has a lot to do every day, so I might as well let my concubine handle them."
Gu Jiu secretly looked at Mrs. Xie, guessing Mrs. Xie's intentions.
Mrs. Xie looked at Tao Hong like she was looking at a dead person.
Obviously, Mrs. Xie did not do this to save Tao Hong's life, so her purpose should be to save the woman in charge of the medicinal material warehouse.
Mrs. Li, who is in charge of the medicinal material warehouse, was originally Xie's dowry. Later, she married a foreign manager in the mansion, and was sent by the Xie family to manage the warehouse of medicinal materials.
Mrs. Li has been in charge of the medicinal materials for these years, shoddy them as good ones, took advantage of them, extorted and extorted, and did not know how much money she had been greedy for. Of course, Mrs. Xie must have made a lot of money.
By keeping Mrs. Li, Mrs. Xie is keeping her own pocketbook, no wonder she wants to do it for her, and is eager to fool Mr. Gu away.
Gu Jiu figured out the joints involved, quickly lowered her head, and coughed. Coughing so hard that others felt scared when they saw it.
"Sister, how are you?"
"Girl, drink some water."
Mr. Gu frowned slightly, showing worry on his face.
Xie secretly hated, bitch, she really knows how to find time to cough.
Gu Jiu leaned against the head of the bed weakly, with tears still hanging from the corners of her eyes, she looked at Master Gu with a weak face, "Father, my daughter wants to change her doctor, please allow me."
Mrs. Xie raised her eyebrows and said firstly: "Second girl, Doctor Xu is a well-known doctor near and far, and he is also a friend of the master. When someone in the house is sick, Doctor Xu has always been invited to come to the door. You can't trust Xu if you ask for another doctor now. The doctor's medical skills, still can't trust the master's vision?"
These accusations are really heart-breaking words.
Master Gu frowned.
Once she doesn't deal with it well, all of Gu Jiu's previous efforts will be in vain.
Gu Ting's eyes were full of anger, what did the wife mean by this. I didn't see that my sister was already sick like this, and she gave her eye drops, she was indeed a poisonous woman.
Gu Jiu secretly grabbed the irritable Gu Ting, shook his head slightly at him, telling him not to be impulsive.
For the sake of his sister, Gu Ting endured it.
Gu Jiu coughed lightly, tears streaming down her cheeks, "Father, my daughter certainly believes in Dr. Xu's medical skills. However, my daughter heard that Dr. Xu was a military doctor before and is better at trauma. My daughter suffers from wind-cold disease, which is different from trauma."
Master Gu nodded slightly and said yes, "The second girl is right, Zhang Gui, take my official name card and go invite Dr. Chen here."
"Is it Dr. Chen from the west of the city?"
"Exactly."
Dr. Chen is a bit pedantic, Mr. Gu doesn't like this person very much, so under normal circumstances, when someone in the mansion is sick, he will ask Dr. Xu. Dr. Xu is well-informed and knowledgeable, and his knowledge is good. Mr. Gu also thinks highly of Dr. Xu.
However, Dr. Chen's medical skills are nothing to say, he is one of the best in Jinzhou, especially good at internal medicine.
This time, if it wasn't for the fact that Gu Jiu was dying of illness, Mr. Gu might not be willing to invite Dr. Chen to visit him.
Zhang Gui took the order and left.
Mrs. Xie narrowed her eyes slightly, then opened them again, and said, "My lord, Dr. Chen's medical skills are naturally excellent, it's just that Dr. Xu has any ideas."
Mr. Gu said lightly: "It's okay!"
A wind-cold disease has been treated for half a year, but it has not been cured. Even if the maid used inferior medicinal materials to pass them off as good ones, Mr. Xu is well-informed, why didn't he see it
If Dr. Xu had seen the maid's tricks earlier, the second girl wouldn't have to suffer so much.
"My lord, everyone from the warehouse has been brought here. Do you want to see me, my lord?"
The butler Gu Quan came back.
Xie was startled, his face changed slightly.
