"master!"
Mrs. Xie looked at Master Gu eagerly.
Master Gu ignored Mrs. Xie, and directly ordered, "Bring everyone in."
Gu Quan took the order, waved his hand to the door, and the servants escorted five or six women into the room.
The first one was Mrs. Li, the steward of the medicinal material warehouse.
In my memory, Mrs. Li has always been arrogant, her eyes are on the top of her head, and she never looks straight at people.
Only in front of his wife Xie, he still maintains his duty as a servant. In front of Gu Jiu and other masters of the younger generation, they put on the music scores of the old people in the house all day long, smiling when they are in a good mood, and flinging face when they are not in a bad mood.
This guy is a typical bully bully.
Now Mrs. Li no longer had the arrogance of the past, she knelt on the ground, shaking like chaff.
Xie clung to the armrest of the chair, his heart beat like a drum, and he was startled. He stared fixedly at Mrs. Li, worried that Mrs. Li would say something she shouldn't say.
Mrs. Li secretly looked at Mrs. Xie, Mrs. Xie shook her head slightly at her, Mrs. Li understood, and hurriedly lowered her head.
Snapped!
Master Gu slapped the table with his hand, making everyone jump with fear.
"Grandma Li, what do you have to say?"
Mrs. Li was shaking all over. When Gu Quan arrested someone, she knew something was wrong. On the way here, I kept thinking whether I should carry it to the end.
Mrs. Xie also reminded her just now, don't talk nonsense.
But in the face of Mr. Gu's official authority, Mrs. Li was frightened to death. She was really scared, Mr. Gu was too powerful, and her small body couldn't bear it.
Li Pozi lowered her head, her eyes rolled around, and she quickly made a decision.
She couldn't bear this matter, unless she didn't want to live. But she couldn't involve Mrs. Xie either. With Xie Shi here, she can live. Something happened to Mrs. Xie, she had no choice but to die.
Master Gu winked, and the housekeeper, Gu Quan, came to Mrs. Li with the package of moldy medicinal materials, "Do you know her?"
Mrs. Li nodded first, then shook her head.
Gu Quan said in a cold voice: "If you're sensible, explain clearly how you cheated, shoddy, and filled your pockets. If this is the case, the master will leave your whole body. If not, I will kill your whole family."
Mrs. Li's complexion turned pale.
"Master, please forgive me, please forgive me! This servant is deceived by lard, and when he is provoked by the people around him, he will do such a thing that is worse than pigs and dogs. This servant knows his mistake, he knows his mistake..."
boom boom boom...
Mrs. Li kowtowed, her forehead hit the ground, one after another. Just listening to the sound hurts.
The women kneeling behind Mrs. Li also kowtowed to plead guilty. Everyone is crying for mercy.
Master Gu kept a straight face and remained silent.
Gu Ting looked very pleased, and wanted to take the opportunity to add insult to injury and kill all these women.
Gu Jiu pulled Gu Ting's sleeve, shook her head slightly, no.
Gu Ting was puzzled.
Gu Jiu bowed her head and didn't say much.
This time, she let Mr. Gu take the lead for her based on her father-daughter relationship. It doesn't mean that Mr. Gu will let her go and let her challenge the authority of the mistress Xie.
Thinking about it, in Mr. Gu's mind, it is obvious that Xie's weight is more important.
After all, the two have been married for many years, and the Xie family is not a stupid woman, and she gave birth to two sons and two daughters for Mr. Gu, and the Xie family is very supportive.
Adding weights one by one, Xie's weight can be imagined, much heavier than Gu Jiu's.
If you want to bring down Mrs. Xie because of the mistakes made by a few servants, you are really too naive, and you are too underestimating Mr. Gu and Mrs. Xie.
Mr. Gu is in a high position, how can he not understand the principle of checks and balances.
Master Gu didn't give Xie shi face before, he just took the opportunity to beat Xie shi and make Xie shi restrain himself.
If you think that Mrs. Xie will be unlucky and lose Master Gu's love, then you will take it for granted.
If the Xie family stays up for a day, the position of the Xie family will be as stable as Mount Tai.
Even if one day the Xie family collapses, as long as Xie's two sons are promising, Xie can still maintain his identity and status.
call!
Gu Jiu secretly exhaled.
This time, Gu Jiu has achieved his goal by getting rid of Tao Hong and replacing the loyal and traitorous Dr. Xu.
As for Mrs. Li, Gu Jiu didn't want to cause trouble.
It's hard to leave a good impression on Mr. Gu, but we can't ruin the current good situation because of Mrs. Li.
Because even if Mrs. Li is killed, she will not get any benefit.
On the contrary, it will leave an impression in Mr. Gu's heart that he has to be unforgiving at a young age and can't handle things.
Moreover, Taohong and Pozi Li are two completely different things.
In name, Tao Hong is Gu Jiu's maid, Tao Hong harbors evil intentions and plots against Gu Jiu, Gu Jiu wants to deal with her, no one can make a mistake.
Mrs. Li is not the wife of Zhilan Courtyard, so she does not belong to Gu Jiu.
Strictly speaking, Gu Jiu is not qualified to ask about Mrs. Li's affairs.
Gu Ting is even more unqualified.
He is a man, he doesn't study hard, and he spends all day worrying about the women in the inner house, he will only give people the impression that he is too small and worthless.
Therefore, when dealing with Mrs. Li, Gu Jiu can't show up, and Gu Ting can't show up.
Besides, without Mrs. Li, there are Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Zhang. As far as Mr. Xie is concerned, it is just a matter of changing people.
On the contrary, keeping Mrs. Li, Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Li would have to be a little dirty.
Perhaps in a fit of anger, Mrs. Xie removed Mrs. Li from her position in charge of her. At that time, it only takes a little provocation to make Mrs. Li feel resentful towards Mrs. Xie.
"Master, all of this is my fault. It is my negligence in management that made today's big mistake, and almost killed the second girl.
The concubine prides herself on being a good housekeeper and director, but she didn't expect such a heartless thing to happen under her nose.
Master, punish my concubine. As for these women, they should be killed for doing such things that are inferior to pigs and dogs. "
With a face full of guilt and self-reproach, Mrs. Xie bowed slightly, waiting for Mr. Gu's disposal.
"Madam, please forgive me. This servant made a mistake, and this servant will never dare again. I beg my wife to give this servant a chance to reform himself..."
slap...
Mrs. Li shook her hand and slapped herself hard on the face.
One slap after another, soon his cheeks swelled up. Coupled with the broken forehead, it looks really miserable.
Mrs. Xie pointed at Mrs. Li, "Shut up! I trusted you so much in vain, but you cheated and enriched yourself, and almost killed the second girl. You deserve to die."
Grandma Li was terrified, and kowtowed with all her strength, and did not dare to stop until her head was bleeding.
Gu Jiu lowered her head and raised her eyebrows slightly.
Xie Shi is very smart.
Now she also knew that pleading was useless, so she simply retreated and took all the responsibilities, and said that she would execute Mrs. Li.
Needless to say, she was on the right track.
No matter what, Mr. Gu must give Xie a face. Mrs. Xie is the mistress of the house, if she has no face, how will she manage the house in the future, I am afraid that the servants will not obey her.
So this matter must stop here, and it cannot be implicated in Xie Shi.
I saw Mrs. Gu pondering for a moment, then cut the mess with a sharp knife, and said with a straight face: "Peach red bag hides evil intentions and murdered the master, damn it! Take her down, beat her forty times, and beat her hard. Let all the servants see, this It is the fate of betraying the master."
Forty boards
Everyone was shocked. After forty boards were beaten, Tao Hong would not be able to survive.
Gu Quan took the order, "Yes."
With a wave of his hand, the two young servants walked out with a pale face. Soon, there was a crackling sound in the yard, and the board hit Tao Hong's body again and again, and it seemed to be hitting everyone's hearts.
At first, I could still hear Taohong's screams, but later, only the sound of boards was heard, and Taohong was silent.
The maids and maids in the room, no matter who they were, all trembled, their hearts terrified!
Then Master Gu said: "Xiao Hong, Xiao Cui, these two maids, each with ten boards, beat them hard."
call!
Ten boards can survive. Xiaocui and Xiaohong kowtowed profusely as if they were fished out of the water.
Gu Jiu bowed slightly, "Thank you father for making decisions for your daughter."
Mr. Gu hummed, "You are good at giving birth."
"A daughter obeys her father's orders."
Mr. Gu looked at Mrs. Li and the others again, "These people are not as good as pigs and dogs. They are all held down. Ten boards each, and Mrs. Li's 20 boards. In addition, I sent someone to raid Mrs. Li's house. I want to see what happened to her. How much money and medicinal materials have been corrupted. Madam, what do you think of this treatment for your husband?"
Mrs. Xie breathed a sigh of relief at first, but when she heard that Mrs. Li's house was going to be copied, she became nervous again.
She lowered her eyebrows and looked remorseful, "The master handled it very well."
Master Gu nodded, "Leave the rest to Madam."
"The concubine takes orders."
"Master, Dr. Chen is here."
"Invite Dr. Chen in."
