Except for the dull sound of boards falling on meat, everything in the garden was quiet in front of the pavilion. There were faint beads of sweat on the forehead of the woman who was playing the board. A little further away, many servants were watching secretly.
The mother-in-law's forehead was sweating, and when she saw blood oozing from the corner of the maid's mouth on the stool, her arms were so weak that she lost some strength.
Chu Yunli raised her eyebrows and said, "Since you are tired, change people." He added, "If there is no one, I will go outside and buy someone."
In the huge Li Mansion, there were hundreds of maids, women, and attendants. When she said "no one," she meant that no one was willing to be used by her.
The woman who hit me was just watering the flowers in the garden. Although she was also taking care of the flowers and plants, the flower farmer only needed to take scissors and trim them here and there. And the job of watering is one of the most important in the entire mansion.
Tired work.
It's hard to say what Chu Yunli's identity was in the past, but she is now the second young lady in the mansion. Whoever she wants to beat to death is not a matter of a word. The mother-in-law wanted to understand this, raised her bat high, and beat her hard.
Licorice, who was already humming softly, screamed again. She looked up at Mrs. Qin, who never interceded for her, and couldn't help shouting, "Madam, I am loyal to you, can you really not say a word for me?
?”
Mrs. Qin squeezed the teacup in her hand tightly and looked at Chu Yunli, "Second Young Madam, why don't you let her go for my sake? Anyway, you can..."
"I'm fine anyway." Chu Yunli asked with a sneer, "right?"
"If I don't know how to smell this medicine, or if I have a cold and a stuffy nose today." Chu Yunli pointed to the teapot, "If I drink this tea, my whole life will be ruined by this girl. She will still be dead at this time.
She doesn’t repent, she only expects you to beg for mercy and let her go, and she doesn’t apologize to me either..."
Licorice immediately said, "I made a mistake, please forgive me, Madam Second Young Master."
The housekeeper hurried over from a distance, and Licorice was overjoyed at the sight. And the housekeeper lived up to her expectations. He walked to the pavilion, bowed and said, "Second Young Madam, the master has invited me."
Chu Yunli's lips curled up with a touch of sarcasm. She originally thought that Licorice might have told a lie, but now it seemed that Li's father could really do something to her. She stood up, straightened her sleeves, and walked out of the pavilion.
, when he walked to the woman who had stopped, she said, "Fifty board, don't miss it."
The housekeeper frowned and said, "The second young lady doesn't know something. This licorice... the master has taken a fancy to and is planning to pick a day to bring it into the room."
"Oh?" Chu Yunli looked at the person on the stool who was covered in blood and even had a pool of blood on the ground. He shook his head and said, "It's like this. Dad will definitely not like it. I'll pick some beautiful ones someday."
..." She glanced around the garden and said, "If any of you are willing to serve the master, you can go to the yard and tell my maid, and you will be given priority when the time comes. After all, I am willing to give you your permission."
Mrs. Qin's face turned pale and she couldn't sit still anymore. She stood up quickly and followed her, "I want to see the master too."
She has been a mistress for so many years, and she appears to be tolerant and generous on the surface. But if she is not ruthless, she is actually unable to hold this position. However, she has never beaten people into such miserable conditions. The most important thing is that
Just watch it yourself and leave!
When they arrived at the main room of the main courtyard, Father Li was already there. He looked ugly and said, "Now that you have a different status, why do you want to kill the maid with a stick in public? The life of the maid is not important. What matters is your reputation. After today... your reputation for violence
If word spreads, it will also drag down Shaoan."
The most important thing is that it drags down Shaoan!
Chu Yunli sneered, "She has poisoned me, how can I still be generous? Dad, that girl just said that she attacked me because she was instigated by you. I just want to ask you about this matter
Is it you who did it? You don’t want me to give birth to Shaoan’s child?”
Father Li choked up. Rich people don't always keep things secretive, so who can be as straightforward as her?
Asked so directly, he definitely couldn't admit it. "No."
Chu Yunli nodded, "She said that I was a despicable person. She plotted to kill the master first, insulted the master behind, and wanted to bite you. Even if she was killed with a stick, our Li family would not have wronged her."
Father Li made a mistake. This daughter-in-law was too talkative. He suddenly found that no matter what reason he came up with, she could refute it. He looked at Mrs. Qin aside, frowned and said, "What are you doing here? Go back."
This means that he wants to talk to Chu Yunli alone.
Qin didn't dare to disobey him now, so Fu Shen retreated.
Father Li looked at the woman in front of him. She had an upright posture, a resolute face, and beautiful eyebrows. She looked a bit more stable than the girl from the He family who came from a wealthy family. Apart from her background, let alone being the wife of a noble person, she was afraid of Mrs. Gaoming.
It can be done, but right now, one's background is the most difficult to conceal.
He sighed, "I still say what I said, Shaoan's wife cannot be you. When you return to the capital, you stay at home and let him take the exam by himself. If someone is listed to catch your son-in-law, you are not allowed to mess around.
Also, you cannot give birth to a child before he takes the high school entrance exam. What does it mean to have a bastard before your legitimate son?"
Hearing the last sentence, Chu Yunli couldn't help but laugh, "Dad, who are you talking about?"
Li Shaoan had an older brother before him, but he was three years older than him.
Hearing her rhetorical question, Father Li knew she was talking about him and frowned immediately, "I am your father-in-law and your elder. Is this how you talk?"
Chu Yunli asked back, "Today you gave me those poisons, but if you don't know what to do, you will just give them life-threatening medicine tomorrow. What attitude should I have towards you?"
"This is outrageous." Father Li slapped his hand on the table, "Get out!"
Chu Yunli turned around and left. She was already in trouble anyway, so there was no need for her to be a filial daughter-in-law.
Walking out of the main courtyard, I heard the sound of breaking porcelain coming from the house behind me.
Mrs. Qin was still waiting outside, but she trembled when she heard the voice, "Second Young Madam, are you not afraid?"
They've already drugged her tea, what's the use?
He was being polite to her when he gave her the medicine to kill his heir. Her tone just now meant that if Li Shaoan hadn't been interested in her, it would have been luck to have left the Li Mansion safely. Even if he lost his life, it would have been normal.
She looked into Qin's eyes and asked, "How did my mother-in-law die back then?"
Mr. Qin lowered his eyes, "It is said that he died of illness."
It is said?
These two words are very interesting. If she hadn't lied, she wouldn't have known the cause of Li Shaoan's mother's death?
In fact, she would have guessed it even without asking. It only took a quarter of an hour for her to make licorice boards in the garden, and the news came here. It can be seen that Li's father knew everything that happened in this house.
Even the Qin family's personal maid can obey his orders, and he should be able to order and control everyone in the house. If you say that he doesn't know about the death of Li Shaoan's mother, even a liar would not believe it.
It seems that we need to be more careful in the future.
Over there, Li Shaoan hurried over and took her hand, "I heard that someone poisoned you?"
"It's okay." Chu Yunli blinked. Poisoning her was the stupidest thing to do. All medicines have a taste, and with her medical skills, it was impossible for any medicine to slip under her nose.
.
Of course, no one in this place knew about this, and they only regarded her as an ordinary maid who had better luck and was favored by Li Shaoan.
When the two of them returned to the courtyard, the people who were saluting by the road lowered their heads as they passed away.
They had been back for two days and had not seen Mr. and Mrs. Li Zhangan. Mr. He went back to her parents' home to have a baby and is still in confinement. It is worth mentioning that Mr. He's sister-in-law also gave birth to a child with her. It is said that she is a
daughter.
Li Shaoan frowned after hearing the cause and effect, "How about we leave early?"
Chu Yunli shook his head and refused, "Hiding is not an option." Now he is busy trying, and after the meeting, he will actually have no time to sort out family affairs.
It would be fine if everyone in this family just had a cold relationship, and it would be okay to give the family property to Li Zhangan, but now, his mother's wasted death cannot be left alone.
As it was getting late that day, the two of them chatted by chance, and Li Shaoan mentioned the haunted things to scare her on purpose.
In fact, Chu Yunli knew that there were ghosts in this world, but she had never encountered them in the real world. In addition, strictly speaking, she herself... So, she was not afraid. Seeing that she was not afraid, Li Shaoan smiled and said,
"Choose a haunted place someday and let's go visit it together?"
Chu Yunli was really not afraid and said with a smile, "You can find it later."
The maid brought snacks in and said with a smile, "The courtyard in the northwest corner of our house is also haunted by ghosts. There are often women crying in the middle of the night."
The two looked at each other. Li Shaoan lowered his eyes and reached out to hold her hand, "Let's take a look."
The maid was startled and said, "I heard that the place is very evil. Master, please don't take any risks. I heard this from the lady in the mansion two days ago. People have died in that place before."
The two of them got up and went out to the northwest corner. Before leaving, they left a message, "You are not allowed to follow."
After passing through several courtyards, the northwest corner became more and more remote. There were still dead leaves left by the autumn sunset on the ground. The autumn wind blew by and made a dull rustling sound. Li Shaoan held her hand tightly and asked, "Are you afraid?"
The corners of Chu Yunli's mouth curled up slightly, "I'm not afraid."
In the small courtyard at the end, there was a big rusty lock hanging on the door. Li Shaoan brought a stone and threw it on it. The lock fell to the ground, and the two of them pushed the door open and entered.
In the silence, the two searched each house, and then turned into the backyard. In the corner of the garden, they saw a woman with disheveled hair and an ageless face crying, "Master... you died so unjustly..."
