Upon hearing the news, Mrs. Gao said bitterly: "If you don't see them, drive them out."
She originally wanted to give the two maids a beating, but when she thought about Su Yueling being favored by the emperor and the queen mother, she gave in and simply turned a blind eye.
After a while, the steward came over with a grimace to report.
"The second lady invited the two maids to her courtyard."
Mrs. Gao was furious, "The second child's family is deliberately going against me!"
She didn't even think about it, if Lei'er's reputation was bad, how could her reputation as a wife get any better? This pig-brained man was indeed a military general. She should have hired a knowledgeable and sensible wife for Lei'er if she had known. This Hu Guiyu,
Not only was she unable to have a child, but she was unfilial and unvirtuous. She even wondered if Hu Guiyu was going to take this opportunity to abandon her second son. No, she couldn't even think about it! She had harmed Lei'er like this, so there was no way she could just walk away.
In stark contrast to Mrs. Gao, who was furious, Hu Guiyu was in an extremely good mood at this time. She said to Sheng Nan and Song Xiaoqiao with a happy face: "I will accept the kindness of the county master on my husband's behalf."
"This matter has nothing to do with the county lord in the first place, but the county lord also sent these gifts. She is as warm and bright as a candle in the dark." Well, she likes the color of this silk satin, and it is just right for the embroiderer to make her new clothes.
Clothes. She wants to go for a run in the countryside in a few days and needs to make riding clothes.
Hu Guiyu enthusiastically asked the kitchen to bring refreshments and tea.
After Shengnan and Song Xiaoqiao had eaten and drank enough, they were escorted out of the house by the maid next to Hu Guiyu.
Hu Guiyu stayed in the courtyard and lived her own life.
Mrs. Gao was so angry that she had a headache. When the nanny in her room came to look for Hu Guiyu and asked her to go over and take care of him, Hu Guiyu didn't know that the old godly woman was planning to use this method to torment her, so she didn't fall for it.
She would not wrong herself for the so-called reputation of filial piety. Anyway, everyone in the house knew that she was not as virtuous and filial as her elder sister-in-law.
Hu Guiyu immediately rubbed her forehead and said, "Today's sun is giving me a headache. My body can't bear it, so I won't go to the old lady's place and cause trouble for her."
"Here, please ask Aunt Yan to come over and serve the old lady."
"Didn't the old lady say that Aunt Yan is the most gentle and considerate, making her feel happy when she sees her? With Aunt Yan here, the old lady's illness will definitely be cured."
She repeatedly invited Aunt Yan, who was wearing peach red clothes, to come over.
"You serve the good old lady on behalf of our second room. If the old lady has any shortcomings, even if you are Brother Song's biological mother, don't blame me for being indifferent."
Aunt Yan was dumbfounded. She didn't expect that Hu Guiyu usually didn't think of her, but now she pushed herself out just to relax. The old lady was in a bad mood now. Even if she was favored by the old lady again, she would definitely suffer a lot at this time.
"Madam, I..." Just as she was about to speak, Hu Guiyu stopped her.
"Why, aren't you willing to serve the filial old lady? I can't let Brother Song have an aunt with a stained character."
As soon as she moved out of Brother Song, Aunt Yan said with a frightened face: "I will definitely serve the old lady well."
Brother Song is Aunt Yan’s weakness and the foundation for Aunt Yan to establish herself as a second wife. Hu Guiyu’s previous actions made Aunt Yan realize that she was different from other matrons of the family. If she really pissed her off, she would not stay.
Humane. And she can beat the second master at will, let alone her aunt.
We can only blame God for being unfair, allowing her to be reincarnated as a maid, but Hu Guiyu has a prominent family who are willing to stand up for her.
Hu Guiyu sent Aunt Yan to serve Mrs. Gao, while she asked her confidants to prepare medicine and pretend to be sick.
She was very skilled at pretending to be sick, and even if the doctor came to see her, he wouldn't be able to spot anything fishy.
Mrs. Gao didn't believe that she was really sick, and was angered by her behavior.
When her husband Gao Wenhao came back, I immediately complained to him and cried until I burst into tears.
If she were still as beautiful as she was when she was young, she would look beautiful even when she shed tears. But now her face is full of wrinkles, and when she cries, those wrinkles squeeze into a ball, like dried tree bark.
"It's too much to bully others. The Weiguo County Master deliberately humiliated our family."
"If we don't fight back at all, I'm afraid that others will follow her example and trample on our house."
Gao Wenhao said with a dark face, "Counterattack, how do you want me to counterattack?"
Mrs. Gao said: "Ask the censor to impeach her!"
Gao Wenhao sneered, "Do you know what the outside world says about our family?"
"People say that Su Yueling has been wronged and that she is magnanimous. Our family sent servants to humiliate her. She repaid her with kindness and sent her an apology."
"Everyone said that something would happen to Lei'er, and it would be our family's retribution."
"You are asking people to impeach her at this time. Do you think our family's reputation is not bad enough?"
Mrs. Gao was dumbfounded, "Is there any natural reason for this? She is obviously bullying others, so how can she be considered a good person?"
It's true that Gao Wenhao is the imperial minister and has many connections, but Yuan Suijun has a bright future and is always with him. Who would offend Yuan Suijun and Su Yueling for the sake of the Gao family?
"Originally, our family was in charge of this matter, but you sent Grandma Lai to the door, and our family was in the wrong."
"Tomorrow you pack up a few good things from the warehouse and deliver them to Su Yueling in person." Gao Wenhao felt aggrieved, but he had to do this for the sake of the reputation of the Gao family.
Mrs. Gao's face changed. Su Yueling had humiliated his family so much, but the Gao family still had to lick their faces to please her. She is already this old...
Mrs. Gao felt aggrieved and it showed on her face.
He thought for a while and could only clapped his hands to coax Mrs. Gao, "When our family Xiuxiu successfully enters the palace, our family's life will be better."
Although their family is a scholarly family, in Gao Wenhao's generation, the one with the highest status is Gao Wenhao himself. As for the three sons...the eldest son studied for many years and only became a scholar. In the end, he had no choice but to donate to the official position due to grace. The second son
He was admitted to Jinshi, but he is only a seventh-grade official now, and he has been stuck in the same place over the years. The younger son has no talent for reading, so we plan to let him enter the military camp. It is for this reason that we hired the second son as a general.
Hu Guiyu from home.
If Gao Lei hadn't also been a Jinshi (albeit the same Jinshi), and Gao Wenhao's father had helped the Hu family, this marriage would never have been possible.
However, Lei'er didn't like Hu Guiyu's background and felt that she had no common topics with her. Instead, she preferred other charming concubines.
Thinking of his troubled sons, Gao Wenhao began to have a headache again.
He said sternly: "If Xiuxiu wants to enter the palace, Su Yueling must not offend her."
Xiuxiu is Mrs. Gao's 40-year-old daughter. She has a graceful and graceful appearance, and has the aroma of books all over her body. Mrs. Gao naturally loves her very much and has high hopes for her.
After hearing this, Mrs. Gao nodded, "For Xiu Xiu, it's nothing if I suffer a little grievance."
