Pan Jiuniang had never gotten along with this so-called madam in her previous life, and she died after being beaten for the first time.
After Chu Yunli arrived, she initially thought that Taohua and Luo Dajiang were conspiring. Later, she saw the clues after the Zhou family was forced to become homeless. To say that Taohua was the mastermind behind the scenes was to flatter her, but that was just
He is just an "ambassador" who was pushed to the outside world.
Hearing An Ning's stinging words, Chu Yunli was heartbroken. She didn't know what Pan Jiuniang had done to arouse the dissatisfaction of this noble lady, which in turn led to the murder.
"What stupid thing?" Chu Yunli looked confused: "What did I do wrong? Please let me know, madam."
"You are a maid and a slave, you should be more humble." An Ning waved his hand and asked the coachman and the maid beside him to retreat to a distance. He did not intend to enter. He stood at the door and said coldly: "So that you know that mother has sent this Zhuangzi away."
Give it to me and let me practice with it."
Chu Yunli looked confused: "What then? Madam wants to kick me out?"
This village is very large, and its location is good. It can be said to be priceless but not marketable. It is one of the most valuable things in Mrs. He’s dowry. An Ning initially said that exchanging the shop for the village was a polite thing... As a mother-in-law, wouldn’t she say this to her daughter-in-law?
Should it mean one or two?
As a result, Mrs. He wanted to give away another Xiao Zhuangzi.
An Ning didn't want it, so she specifically mentioned this place, and built two more shops before her mother-in-law relaxed. Now this area is her place, and she doesn't want such a large group of moths to live in the place under her name!
Yes, these useless people who are not engaged in production are no different from worms in her eyes!
According to her original intention, she would just kick these people out. But the trouble was that her mother-in-law took them in. No matter how much she hated this group of people, it was not easy to kick them out as soon as she took over.
"My mother is kind-hearted and has taken you in. As a daughter-in-law, I will not disobey her, but you can't take all the advantages in life. You have received the favor from your mother, but you can't live in vain. In this way, the three acres of land around you will be given to you.
Sow it and pay half of the rent!" An Ning emphasized: "Remember, you have to do it yourself. If you don't work for a day, you are no different from a useless person. I am thinking about you."
Chu Yunli looked straight at her, showing no humility that a maid should have towards her master: "You hate me?"
A determined tone.
An Ning sneered: "Who do you think you are, worthy of being in my eyes?"
"I don't farm." Chu Yunli said calmly, "I will move out with my mother-in-law later."
An Ning snorted coldly: "I know you want to take advantage of it, and want to run away as soon as you talk about work. Don't even think about going to your mother-in-law to complain. You are a servant of the He family. What happened to you being asked to farm?"
"Mrs. He let me live here because she wanted to take care of me and my mother-in-law. Now that we can't live here anymore, I should say something no matter what. Madam has a clear conscience, so I have no worries." After Chu Yunli finished speaking, she didn't look at her.
An Ning's face suddenly changed, and she turned around and said loudly: "Mother-in-law, let Hongdou pack her luggage, we will leave later. While it is still early, go to the city and tell your wife that you will stay in an inn tonight and find a place to stay tomorrow."
An Ning wanted to force people to leave, but she never expected that Pan Jiuniang would put her thoughts on the table so directly: "Mother is busy with work, I will just tell you to move out. Just find a place nearby."
…”
Chu Yunli interrupted her: "Where I live is my own business. Besides, if I move here even for just one day, it will be a favor to the He family. What's more, my mother-in-law has moved here for a long time and is leaving now.
, It’s really inappropriate to sneak away like a thief without mentioning anything. I know it well, so I won’t bother Madam.”
An Ning gritted her teeth: "If you don't want to farm, just stop farming."
"I don't want to farm, but I also don't want to live here." Chu Yunli turned around: "Time is urgent. I have to pack my luggage, so I won't chat with my wife."
An Ning was a little anxious. If this happened in front of her mother-in-law, it would not be good for her.
"There's no need to be in such a hurry. Even if you have to leave, you can still find a place to stay first."
If An Ning was just He Junhai's wife, Chu Yunli would not embarrass her like this, but if this was the mastermind behind the murder of Pan Jiuniang, there would be nothing to be polite about. As long as it could cause trouble for her, Chu Yunli would be happy
Do it.
An Ning saw that the little girl didn't listen to her and was limping to pack her luggage without even turning her head. She immediately became angry. She had originally thought of being more subtle and forcing the person away, but she didn't bother now.
Pretend: "Pan Jiuniang, don't be so shameless."
Hearing this sentence, Chu Yunli turned around and asked, "Ma'am, don't you pretend anymore?"
An Ning didn't want her to bring the issue of forcing her to move out in front of her mother-in-law. She was too soft-hearted and made up her mind to be tough. She sneered: "Don't take yourself too seriously. In the eyes of mother-in-law, you are just like
There are cats and dogs in need of treatment on the roadside. If you want to move them, just move them. Don't bother your mother-in-law."
"Even if I am a cat or a dog, I am still a grateful animal. When I receive kindness from others, it is inevitable to express my gratitude." Chu Yunli said with a calm expression: "Let me remind Madam, I am no longer a maid of He Mansion!"
Therefore, don't put your master's record in front of her.
An Ning disagreed: "Let me remind you, you'd better be obedient, otherwise..."
Chu Yunli raised her eyebrows: "Madam, are you threatening me?"
"You can think whatever you want." An Ning did not deny it: "You have to move out within three days, as far away from He Mansion and this village as possible, and don't disturb mother. If not, you will be responsible for the consequences."
After saying that, he got on the carriage and headed for the top of the mountain.
Both mother-in-law and Hongdou were frightened. Hongdou had been in the house for many years and had never seen an angry master, especially when the anger was directed at herself... That Taohua was beaten half to death by the madam, and she didn't want to end up like that.
The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. He grabbed his girl's sleeve and said, "Girl, let's move away."
In the eyes of her mother-in-law, these wealthy ladies are no different from gods in the sky. One word can change a person's life or death, so they must not be angered. After hearing what Hongdou said, she hurriedly nodded in agreement: "Yes, let's find a small yard and buy one.
I can be self-sufficient with three or two acres of land, and I will choose a good person for you and Hongdou later..."
"Okay!" Chu Yunli agreed: "I will go down the mountain to find a place to stay later, and I will move tomorrow at the latest."
She did what she said, and Chu Yunli didn't waste a moment. Her injury had actually healed. She just didn't want to heal too quickly and arouse suspicion. When she got to a place where no one was around, she walked quickly and went to the village at the foot of the mountain to ask questions.
After a while, I quickly bought a small farmhouse.
She held three hundred taels of silver in her hand and learned that this family had to sell their yard to raise money for medicine because there was a patient at home. Not only did she not lower the price, but she also gave some more. The family was so happy that they immediately packed up and moved in.
Went to the hospital.
After the house was vacated, Chu Yunli asked a few people in the village to help clean and renovate it. She went to buy a bullock cart herself. In the evening, she asked the people in the village to help her go to the mountain to pick up her mother-in-law and Hongdou.
Both mother-in-law and Hongdou like their new home very much. Speaking of it, this is the first time they have their own place.
The next day, Chu Yunli got up early and prepared to enter the city.
She was hanging with people from the village who were going to work in the city, talking and laughing all the way. Just as she was about to enter the city, two men came over with fierce expressions on their faces.
The three people traveling with them were a little frightened. Chu Yunli waved his hand: "You go first, I will come later."
The three of them looked at each other and did not force them to stay. Although the two of them looked at the visitor as unkind, it would be unkind to leave Jiuniang to face them alone. But in the final analysis, they had only known each other for a day, so there was no need to involve themselves.
After everyone left, Chu Yunli stretched out his hand and pointed at the base of the city wall: "There are people coming and going here. This is not a place for talking. Let's go over there."
The two of them had no objection. When they reached a quiet place, one of them asked directly: "What are you doing in the city?"
"I don't even know you, so why should I tell you?" Chu Yunli snorted coldly, picked up the stone on the side, and hit him on the head with lightning speed.
The man wanted to hide, but couldn't. With a bang, he fell straight to the ground. The other man reacted and raised his hand to hit him... They stayed here just to stop Pan Jiuniang from entering.
If Pan Jiuniang didn't listen to the advice, she would have taken action.
Chu Yunli was faster than him. She kicked her foot and made the person kneel down. She knocked him unconscious with a sharp knife. In less than half a quarter of an hour, she had returned to the city gate.
The three people inside were a little worried after all. They stood by the roadside and waited for a while. When they saw her appear, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
The three of them were all working in the outer city. Soon after entering the city, Chu Yunli separated from them, found a carriage and went straight to He's Mansion.
It was lunch time, and An Ning was very good at being a daughter-in-law. She would personally serve her mother-in-law at every meal. Of course, Mrs. He was not the type to take advantage of her status as an elder, and usually let her daughter-in-law sit and eat together. Today, too,
Similarly, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are facing each other, and the He family has a rule of not saying anything when eating. There is only a slight sound of chopsticks touching dishes in the room.
Halfway through the meal, a steward came to the door. Seeing what was going on inside, he didn't bother him.
Mrs. He saw this and finished the meal and rinsed her mouth. She waited until the maids had removed the dishes before calling the person in: "What's the matter?"
The steward whispered: "Miss Ninth is here and wants to see you for something. Look..."
There was a "pop" sound.
Mrs. He and the steward looked around and saw An Ning wiping his mouth in embarrassment, looking over with panic in his eyes.
"Quickly, get the veil for the young madam." Madam He didn't think much about it, thinking that her daughter-in-law choked accidentally. If she was in front of others, this would be very rude, but there were no outsiders, so there was no need to be so harsh.
An Ning forced herself to calm down, and after taking the handkerchief, she said, "What is she doing when she comes back? A maid, mother, there is no need..."
"This is not an ordinary maid." Mrs. He was very patient, with a persuasive look on her face: "Pan Jiuniang is a kind person. She can support more than ten people with her wages as a maid. Who can be as selfless as she is?"
With this kindness, we should be more polite."
After saying this, he signaled the steward with his eyes to invite someone.
An Ning was in a mess, thinking about her previous arrangements over and over again. She always felt that there should be no mistakes. Could it be that two big men who knew some martial arts couldn't stop a weak woman?
Chu Yunli came in and greeted Mrs. He, as if she didn't notice anyone else in the room. She didn't look at An Ning at all. She said to herself: "Madam, I am moving out with my mother-in-law."
