Master Gu Second, Master Gu Third and others led the men and stood neatly on the left.
On the right were the female relatives headed by Mrs. Gu. Murong stood in front, looking pale and almost unsteady.
She frequently raised her head to look at Mrs. Gu and Gu Yilan, but the two just lowered their heads and drank tea without looking at her at all.
She finally couldn't bear it anymore and said softly: "Master, husband, my personal maid Ah Yue suddenly disappeared and has not been found. Should you send someone to look for her?"
Old Mrs. Gu didn't even move his eyelids.
Gu Yilan's expression was indifferent, as if she hadn't heard anything.
Murong had never been humiliated like this before. She just felt that everyone was looking at her and laughing at her.
But she didn't dare to cry or make trouble.
Because just now, her natal family, her parents, and her brother were all imprisoned.
It is not certain whether the title can be kept.
In a sense, Muhou Mansion has lost the qualification to be on an equal footing with Guhou Mansion.
What's more terrible is that she feels guilty because something happened to Mu Yao. She is afraid that if the incident comes out, it will be doomed.
So, she humbled herself, not daring to beg Old Mrs. Gu again, but looked at Gu Yilan: "Husband... Ah Yue is missing..."
Gu Yilan raised her eyelids and glanced at her, then said calmly: "What does it have to do with me?"
"What does it have to do with you?"
Murong's voice suddenly became louder.
She said excitedly: "Husband, we are husband and wife, we share weal and woe, how come my affairs have nothing to do with you?"
Old Mrs. Gu said displeasedly: "If you want to make trouble, get out!"
Murong's voice suddenly disappeared.
It was like a chicken's neck was suddenly strangled.
She drooped her shoulders and choked with sobs: "Old man, husband, you can't treat me like this. You can't be so ruthless and unjust just because something happened in my family..."
That's so chilling... In these years, even if I have no merit, I have still worked hard. What's more, do I really have no merit?
I have taken care of your husband these years, and I have also given him the medicine..."
"What's wrong with you?" Gu Yilan looked at her expressionlessly.
Murong opened her mouth and said with difficulty: "It's all given by me... I worry about your food, clothing, housing and transportation every day. I am a husband and wife for a hundred days, but you..."
Gu Yilan looked at her coldly, with penetrating eyes.
She couldn't say any more, so she looked back at Mrs. Gu and begged in a pleading voice: "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, please say a few words for me. You are also a daughter of the Mu family."
Mrs. Gu said calmly: "Ninth brother and sister, you have forgotten one thing. When you marry into the Gu family, you are just the Gu family's daughter, not anyone else."
Murong was speechless: "You, how could you do this?"
Mrs. Gu sighed pitifully: "I told you this a long time ago, but it's a pity that you never took it to heart."
No, no one has ever said this to me.
Murong thought wildly.
They are clearly Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Gu. They are just side branches, not direct branches like her.
Therefore, they could not afford to offend her before, so they only supported her.
Now, seeing that she was in bad luck, they wanted to punish her and add insult to injury.
Murong clenched her fingers: "Sister-in-law, you..."
Mrs. Gu glanced at her, shook her head and sighed: "I'm not sensible. Let me ask you, now that the Mu family has suffered a big change, the Gu family has also been affected. Is this a big deal?"
Murong instinctively felt something was wrong, but had to answer: "It's a big deal." (To be continued)
