Reborn as a concubine's sister, the eldest lady went crazy
Chapter 48 Return
She pulled out something long from her sleeve and waved it in front of Mrs. Gu.
Whip?
Ever since the children grew up, the Xu family has never used a whip again. This one was taken out from the pile of junk after Xu Yixing had searched for a long time.
"I'll teach you the rules."
Snapped!
"Don't call the master by his name!"
Snapped!
"Second, you are not allowed to hinder the officers in their investigation!"
Snapped!
"Don't tell lies!"
With each blow of the whip, Xu Yixing's hands became more powerful, and the rage in his heart grew stronger.
Gu Pozi was not as strong as Yi Yan in the past, and she screamed when she was beaten. In fact, it was because the whip was soaked in salt water and pepper water for a whole night. This is what is called double return.
"You...you bitch, you really, really hold a grudge against what happened back then...I really regret not sending you away with your mother!"
Mrs. Gu had tears in her eyes. Why did the whip hurt so much? If she had known, she would have hit her a few more times and beaten her to death!
"Do you admit that you were the one who killed Aunt Liu?"
Although Mrs. Gu was resentful, she did not take it lightly. She had already suffered a loss in court. Who would have thought that Cai's usual flattery was all fake! She was very afraid that there were a bunch of people in the corner of the prison listening to her confession of guilt.
So she raised her voice: "Your mother died of illness! What does it have to do with me? Second Miss, please stop slandering me!"
Xu Yixing scratched his ears slightly: "What are you shouting about? I can hear you. Aunt Liu did die of illness, but if you hadn't dragged her to the hospital and refused to treat her illness, would she have died so early and in such pain?"
Eight years old. Xu Yiyan was already eight years old when Aunt Liu died. She has never forgotten the looks of the people in the mansion at that time.
Although Xu Yixing did not inherit the memory, he could guess what the situation was. Moreover, Mrs. Gu deliberately let Empress Xu get sick. Maybe she had used this trick against Aunt Liu before!
"Humph, that's her own bad luck, she can't blame anyone else!"
Xu Yixing squatted down and aligned his eyes with hers.
"Guess why I'm here but Gu Shuang isn't?"
This is what Mrs. Gu was afraid of. The jailer had been quite considerate of her, giving her medicine and arranging a spacious house for her. But the lady should have come here earlier to rescue her. How come this bastard got there first?
"Hmph, there's no need to sow discord here. My young mistress has a lot on her plate, how could she possibly come here?" To persuade Xu Yiyan was also to persuade himself.
"Come on, forget it. The jailer can let me in for just ten taels of silver, but she refused to spend the money for you. If she can't come, can't she send someone else? Or does she have a bad memory and forgot that you are still imprisoned here?"
Mrs. Gu stopped talking and lowered her head slightly, avoiding Xu Yixing's gaze. Yes, it would be good even if someone was sent.
However, she still didn't believe that Gu Shuang would give up on her. Not to mention the relationship, even though she had earned so much money for her over the years, she couldn't bear to see anything happen to her!
"Madam, you are right to protect yourself. It is not your turn to instigate!"
Snapped!
The whip hit Mrs. Gu directly in the face, causing her mouth to become crooked and her eyes to slant, with blood and saliva flowing out.
"Come on, call her 'little bitch' again! I know you think you are valuable, so she will definitely save you. But, she asked someone to search the secret compartment under your bed and found an account book. Huh?"
Xu Yixing raised his eyebrows. That was what he wanted. He wanted to crush her reliance bit by bit. It would be boring to kill her with one blow. He wanted to watch her hope of living continuously, and then have her hope shattered. That would be cool!
Account book... Mrs. Gu's face darkened. How could she find this thing? It turned out that the lady had long since stopped trusting her, otherwise she would not have searched the room as soon as she was arrested.
"So what...According to the account book, I did get myself some benefits, but those were also tacitly agreed by her. Compared with the money I earned for her, those are just a drop in the bucket!"
Yes! As long as she still needs me to make money for her, I will definitely not sit idly by. Mrs. Gu's eyes lit up again. This guy is just bluffing, wanting to see me panic, wanting me to make mistakes and confess something!
"Really? But I heard that your three sons and one daughter are living a very carefree life outside the mansion. They are even more respectable than the young men and women of ordinary families. I'm afraid that these are not something that can be achieved with just a little money. You know how much you have embezzled."
Mrs. Gu knew that even if she could be rescued this time, she would have to bear the mistress's great anger. Just for the sake of gaining benefits, she might never be able to get any money from the account again.
But compared to life, money is nothing!
"In fact, she doesn't need you anymore. When I went out, I saw Huixiang riding a carriage to the residence of the Minister of Revenue. It seemed that she was going to borrow someone. She said she was going to check the accounts."
What! Madam is really so heartless... There are many people in the Gu Mansion who are good at calculating. Once she asks the master to borrow someone, how can she compare with those old men who deal with account books all year round! In the future, I am afraid I don’t have to manage the store myself, my God!
No, don't panic.
Isn't it just an accountant? If I don't want to do it, I won't do it. Anyway, I am exhausted. I am her most capable assistant. I have done so many evil things, but they were all for her! For these secrets, she will definitely save me!
Xu Yixing saw that Mrs. Gu's expression changed again, and thought to himself that people's desire to survive is really strong. Even in this situation, she is still trying hard to find excuses to deceive him.
"Also, don't think that she will save you just because you have done so many dirty things for her. Think about it carefully. Is it more beneficial to save you or to let you die quietly in prison? If you die, no one will know about her deeds."
"you!"
Heart-breaking, this is heart-breaking! Mrs. Gu knew that the man in front of her had bad intentions, and she was breaking down her defenses bit by bit.
But I couldn't help being afraid. Even if I didn't listen to a single word, the fear and suspicion would still entangle my heart like a poisonous snake, eerie and cold, and I didn't know when they would be ready to open their mouths and show their fangs.
Xu Yixing looked up and saw the skylight. Cold wind blew in from there and he wrapped his coat tightly around himself.
"Look, this cell is exposed to wind and rain, and she chose to put you here. Isn't she deliberately trying to freeze you to death?"
"You're talking nonsense!" Mrs. Gu crawled forward a few steps and tried to grab Xu Yixing's leg, but her back hurt so much that her hand just reached her ankle before it was stepped on.
"Look, now you can neither make money for her nor keep secrets for her, so why would she save you? I heard that Lord Shen will interrogate you again after the New Year, but I feel that Gu Shuang will not let you live until then.
The food you eat, the water you drink, and the medicine you take, tsk tsk tsk, I can't imagine where she would tamper with it. You know her so well, you must be able to guess it, right? "
