"If you do something wrong, you will be punished." Tang Lihua glanced at Gong Liangshan while speaking, "Why, do you have objections?"
Gong Liangshan said hastily, "My son dare not."
Afterwards, he added a sentence hesitantly, "Just after hearing about this, I wanted to ask why, why my mother was so angry."
But now that I asked, I couldn't see that my mother was angry at all, and Gong Liangshan was a little uncertain, but he always couldn't understand his mother.
Gong Liangshan has not been close to his mother since he was a child. He was brought up by his nanny. Apart from teaching him how to behave and test his knowledge, his mother has no other warmth between mother and child.
When he was a child, Gong Liangshan was sullen because of this, but when he grew up, he inherited the position of Marquis of Ningyuan. Although Gong Liangshan still couldn't let it go, he also learned to hide his thoughts.
He is more respectful to his mother, because Gong Liangshan knows that according to his knowledge and means, there may be no room for advancement in the officialdom.
After his father passed away, the position of Marquis Ningyuan was retained only because the emperor looked at his mother's face.
"The eldest girl caused the second girl to fall into the lake. I have punished her until she wakes up. Mrs. Sun loves the eldest girl. If she wants to be punished with her, I will not stop her." Tang Lihua gave Gong Liangshan the answer with a light sentence. .
Seeing this, Gong Liangshan couldn't get entangled in this matter anymore, so he changed the subject, "I heard that my mother has been guarding here for a day, so I should go back and rest first, and when Yuan'er wakes up, I will send someone to talk to my mother. of."
Tang Lihua showed some expression this time. She looked Gongliang Mountain up and down, and finally said, "Since I have been guarding for a day, it will be a short while. Since there is no mother who loves Yuan'er, I am a grandmother. I feel sorry for you, you are also tired when you come back from the public, so go back and rest."
Gong Liangshan keenly caught the question in his mother's words, he was slightly stunned, and wanted to ask again, but seeing his mother's expression, he shut his mouth.
It's just that when he walked out of Tinglan Garden, Gong Liangshan obviously had something hidden in his heart, and he walked hurriedly. When he returned to the front yard, Steward Zhou ordered his servants to serve the food, and he bent over to pour wine for Lord Hou.
Gong Liangshan always likes to have a few drinks at night, so that he can sleep more peacefully at night.
But today, while holding the wine glass in his hand, he didn't move, his brows furrowed deeply.
Zhou Guanshi didn't know what happened to Lord Hou, so he just waited carefully.
After a quarter of an hour, Gong Liangshan suddenly asked, "Second Miss returned home, what happened, and how did Madam treat her?"
What Gong Liangshan cares about is what his mother said, no one cares about the second girl.
Steward Zhou was taken aback by the question, but he thought about it in his mind carefully before answering, "Madam is very happy, she sent someone to take care of her, and she often goes to visit, nothing wrong with it."
But when Gong Liangshan heard this, his brows were still furrowed. Since his mother said that, she must have a reason.
Gong Liangshan didn't believe that his mother could wrong Mrs. Sun for no reason. It must be that Mrs. Sun did something wrong.
Although he didn't say anything more, Gong Liangshan kept his mind on his mind, and never thought of pleading for Mrs. Sun from the beginning to the end.
Sun and Gong Liangjing knelt for the whole afternoon. Although they were covered with futons, their legs and knees were still sore and their waists were also sore.
Especially Mrs. Sun, who is used to being a master, has never been punished like this. This person is exhausted.
There is no need to copy the Buddhist scriptures in hand.
Because Tang Lihua ordered, there is no need to copy Buddhist scriptures when it gets dark, just kneel down.
Mrs. Sun breathed a sigh of relief that her wrist no longer had to be tortured. No one could bear to write calligraphy all afternoon.
While Sun herself was suffering, she felt even more distressed for Gong Liangjing who had been silent all afternoon by her side.
My daughter has been well-behaved since she was a child, and what I teach her most is verbal lessons, and I have never touched a finger of her, let alone the current situation.
Presumably Gong Liangjing must be extremely uncomfortable.
In the past, Mrs. Sun would definitely hug him into her arms and comfort her, but now she couldn't help herself, and could only wait for the punishment to end before comforting her.
The two of them were kneeling, they didn't eat a grain of rice, and they didn't have time to drink water. After drinking water, they had to go to the toilet, and when they were kneeling, they had to go to the toilet.
As their masters, how could they tell the servants such words. Then being watched by the servants and sent to Gong's room, thinking about such a thing, Sun's scalp tingles, and he would rather hold back his thirst than have such a scene.
Sun thought so, and so did Gong Liangjing.
It was completely dark outside now, and oil lamps were already lit inside the house.
After being smoked by sandalwood all afternoon, Sun felt a little dizzy, her stomach began to churn, and she wanted to vomit.
Just as Mrs. Sun was about to lose her hold, Gong Liangjing also noticed something strange about her mother. She wanted to stand up and call for someone, but was pushed down by the woman watching behind her.
"Miss, please continue to kneel and don't embarrass the slaves." Tang Lihua stayed behind this woman to watch them being punished.
Gong Liangjing's eyes showed anxiety, "I saw that my mother looked uneasy, so I asked my mother to be tolerant and let her take a break. I will bear these punishments alone."
Sun's head was dizzy, and when she heard this, she was very relieved, and Jing'er was still considerate.
It's just that Gong Liangjing's request was obviously useless. The people in Tang Lihua's yard only listened to Tang Lihua's orders, even if Lord Hou was here at the moment, they would not be moved.
The mother-in-law gave her a serious look, "The old lady hasn't given orders yet, so it's better for the eldest girl to continue kneeling."
Sun managed to pull herself together and comforted Gong Liangjing, "Jing'er, don't worry, I'm just a little tired, it doesn't matter."
When Gong Liangjing heard her mother's voice still trying to comfort her, her eyes turned red immediately, and the emotions that had been suppressed all afternoon broke out under such warmth, and tears fell like beads.
Mrs. Sun became anxious when she saw it. Regardless of her dizziness, she came to Gong Liangjing's side and hugged him into her arms, "Jing'er don't cry, there is a mother here, so Jing'er won't cry."
The mother-in-law who guarded her frowned tightly, she could hold Gong Liangjing down without hesitation, but she still had to worry about Sun, the head mother.
After all, Mrs. Sun was still kneeling and didn't get up. The mother-in-law pretended she didn't see it and let them hug each other.
Thinking of this, the old lady took a step back, accidentally saw a few figures at the door from the corner of her eye, and then looked back, her eyes widened, and the blurted call was blocked by a hand.
The mother-in-law immediately understood, bowed her head and quietly stepped aside.
Mrs. Sun and Gong Liangjing were still hugging each other, crying so desolately that they didn't even notice the situation at the door.
It was a group of people headed by Tang Lihua at the door, but Tang Lihua was not the focus now, the focus was on the little girl wrapped in a wide cloak a step behind her.
Her hair was disheveled, because she had just woken up from a coma, and her lips were white, but she walked in a hurry at night, and the breeze brought her a blush.
But the blush faded completely after seeing the situation in the room.
Gong Liangyuan's face at this moment is uglier than when she just woke up from the bed.
Seemingly unable to bear such a situation, her right hand covered by the cloak clenched the skirt of her heart tightly, a dull pain came from it, causing her face to twist for a moment.
Tang Lihua was paying attention to her all the time, seeing her like this, she also sighed in her heart, knowing that the little girl was hurt by Mrs. Sun again.
It's just that Tang Lihua couldn't do it either. Gong Liangyuan wanted to come over when she heard that Mrs. Sun was fined to kneel.
Just a quarter of an hour ago, the maid who was waiting in front of the bed noticed that the second girl had moved her hand.
After Tang Lihua entered, Gong Liangyuan woke up completely. After taking a bowl of medicine, she drank another bowl of porridge. Although she was still weak, her complexion improved a lot.
When Gong Liangyuan woke up and saw the old lady, she was shocked.
In fact, Gong Liangyuan has never met her grandmother a few times in her previous life and this life.
In her previous life, shortly after she was admitted back to the Marquis' Mansion, the old lady closed the hospital, and she was even exempted from the monthly greetings from the mansion.
In this life, she hasn't had time to pay her respects to the old lady.
In this way, Gong Liangyuan is a stranger to the old lady, and the reason why she was able to recognize the person at the first time is because of the old lady's whole body.
Gong Liangyuan was supposed to rest after finishing the porridge, but facing the old lady, Gong Liangyuan was a little at a loss, so she asked Mrs. Sun for a moment.
Knowing that Mrs. Sun was fined, Gong Liangyuan ignored the old lady and forcibly got out of bed to see her mother.
To say that Sun's mother is also Gong Liangyuan's obsession. She has a natural admiration for Sun. In this life, she wants her mother to only have her daughter in her heart.
Seeing that she was stubborn, Tang Lihua didn't stop her, and asked someone to wrap her cloak, so she followed.
Then what you see is the current situation.
Tang Lihua really didn't know it would be such a coincidence, how could the two hug each other while kneeling and crying.
Mrs. Qian winked, and supported him from behind.
Tang Lihua didn't make a sound, and let Gong Liangyuan look at the mother and daughter hugging each other.
I don't know how long it took, Gong Liangyuan seemed to be relieved from the overwhelming suffocation, she opened her mouth, and her dry voice broke the crying of Sun and Gong Liangjing, "Mother."
Mrs. Sun was startled at first, and then turned her head to see Gong Liangyuan standing at the door. Her expression could not be seen clearly because of the backlight, but for some reason, Mrs. Sun let go of her arms around Gong Liangjing as if frightened. hands.
There was nervousness and embarrassment on her face, and she didn't know what to say for a while.
Sensing the two gazes cast on him, Mrs. Sun seemed to have done something wrong.
At this moment, Gong Liangyuan let go of the skirt tightly held by her right hand, showing a weak smile, gently pushed away Mrs. Qian's hand that was supporting her, and walked to Mrs. Sun step by step.
Under Sun's stunned gaze, she knelt down and lowered her head, "It's Yuan'er's fault, and mother was punished."
Mrs. Sun was busy helping someone, and a deep shame filled her heart, "It's not your fault, it's my mother who did something wrong, get up quickly, you just woke up, don't make trouble."
Gong Liangyuan refused to get up, but raised her head to look at Gong Liangjing who was sad because she was pushed away by Sun.
"I fell into the lake that day because of my carelessness. It's none of my elder sister's business. At that time, my elder sister wanted to save me. It's also my fault that my elder sister is punished now."
Gong Liangjing was stunned, he didn't expect Gong Liangyuan to say that.
Compared to Sun's face, she immediately showed joy, holding a daughter with one hand, a little excited, "Mother knows that you are all good children, and Jing'er has been blamed since she was a child, and she will definitely not push others."
But she didn't see the forced smile that Gong Liangyuan had put on, and it disappeared all of a sudden, and her eyes were extremely dark.
