Thinking of this, Gu Yuzhi seemed to see hope again. She thought that as long as she was better and more obedient, her grandmother would like her as before.
She did not resist anymore, and obediently went to pour night incense for the housekeeper. Seeing that she was submissive, others followed suit. She did not resist anymore, and endured it obediently. However, when they were alone, her eyes revealed a ferocity that was beyond her age, and she kept repeating the names of the people who bullied her.
When her grandmother likes her again, she will make sure she skins them alive.
Thinking of this, Gu Yuzhi felt that life didn't seem so difficult to endure.
Lying back in the thin, torn quilt that smelled of mold, she fell into a deep sleep and had a dream. In the dream, her grandmother came to pick her up in person, and she became the little lady held in the palm of her grandmother's hand again, sleeping on a high bed with a warm pillow, eating delicacies from land and sea. If anyone bullied her, she would lock them up with the hyenas and not feed them or the hyenas, to see who could bear it first.
Thinking of this, Gu Yuzhi woke up from her dream with a smile.
Then I heard the voice of my grandmother's personal nanny coming from outside, "Everyone, come out, who washed the second master's clothes?"
Gu Yuzhi was stunned for a moment, then she remembered that she had put itching grass on Gu Yanzhi's clothes, and suddenly she felt a chill on her back.
Grandmother cares about Gu Yanzhi the most. If she knew, she would definitely not forgive her.
Thinking about it, Gu Yuzhi secretly made a decision that she would never go out.
Anyway, it wasn't her job to wash Gu Yanzhi's clothes.
Then she quietly pointed to another maid in charge. She knew that the maid had always been eyeing the position of the maid in charge. Sure enough, the maid in charge immediately pushed the maid out to take the blame.
Soon, the nanny beside Liu dragged the scapegoat away. It was said that he was beaten with thirty boards and died on the spot.
When everyone talked about it, they felt a little scared.
"The old lady really cares about the Second Master the most. She cannot be careless when it comes to the Second Master."
Listening to this, a trace of fear appeared on Gu Yuzhi's face.
She knew that it was Gu Yanzhi who had someone send her here.
Will her grandmother really take her out?
She suddenly felt a little unconfident.
But she couldn't stay here any longer.
She thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to ask Pei Jiuniang for help.
For some reason, she felt that Pei Jiuniang must save her.
Moreover, she vaguely felt that Liu seemed to still be afraid of Pei Jiuniang.
But she also knew that Pei Jiuniang didn't like her at all, and could even be said to hate her.
She had to force Pei Jiuniang to save her.
But she was being watched very closely and couldn't get out.
However, she soon set her eyes on the new maid who came into the mansion. The girl was a little older than her, but looked stupid. Others always bullied her, and she was always robbed and didn't have enough to eat.
She gave her her own and asked her to deliver the letter to Pei Jiuniang in public, especially in front of people outside the mansion, and describe her in the most miserable way possible.
But the little girl was too stupid. She had clearly told her many times how to get to the mansion and how to get to Pei Jiuniang's yard, but she still went the wrong way.
In the end, her deeds were exposed, and she was severely punished by the housekeeper.
"Yuzhi, I'm sorry, I'm so stupid..."
Xiaolu was crying and at a loss.
"It's ok."
Gu Yuzhi lowered her head. If it weren't for the fact that this idiot was easy to bully and still useful, she would not have been willing to get close to her, a lowly bitch.
"Yuzhi, are you really a lady? But..."
Xiaolu had just arrived and didn't know Gu Yuzhi. Others said that Gu Yuzhi used to be a lady in the mansion, but later she made a mistake and was punished to come here.
Gu Yuzhi herself said that she was just here for everything.
But she had never seen a young lady dressed in such rags like her, and the maids in charge were ruthless when they dealt with Gu Yuzhi.
"Of course I am. I've already said it. I just made my mother angry. When she calms down, she will take me out. Don't worry, when I get out, I will take you out with me. You will stay with me from now on."
Gu Yuzhi seemed dissatisfied with Xiaolu's suspicion, and her voice was almost like a roar, which scared Xiaolu, but also made Xiaolu believe what she said even more.
Her life had become much better since Xiaolu came. With Xiaolu's help, she gave all her work to Xiaolu. She would only pretend to work seriously when the nanny was watching her.
That day, she finally found an opportunity and asked Xiaolu to help cover her up and sneak out. She knew that there were outsiders at home, so she stumbled over, fell down on purpose, and acted like she was scared.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, don't hit me, I..."
"Huh? Why does this little girl look familiar?"
Someone really recognized her. "I remember now. Isn't she the girl that Liu brought us to see before? She said she was adopted by the mansion. She kept calling me darling... Why?"
"Really? How did this child become like this? What is he wearing? And his hands?"
Someone noticed that the hand she was deliberately covering was red and swollen, obviously having been severely beaten.
"I remember now. Last time when Liu said she would adopt them, Pei Jiuniang seemed unhappy. Could it be that Pei Jiuniang deliberately let someone else do that? But wasn't it said that their father was also from the Gu family? He even saved Marquis Gu's life? How could she treat her benefactor's children like this?!"
Gu Yuzhi kept her head down and didn't say anything, her small shoulders trembling slightly. Anyone who saw her would know that she had suffered a great injustice.
He couldn't bear it anymore, so he lifted her head, wiped her eyes, and asked her if it was Pei Jiuniang who asked her to treat her like this?
Gu Yuzhi just sobbed without refutation. Anyway, she felt that if Pei Jiuniang had been willing to take her in, she would have been included in the family tree of the Marquis' Mansion and would have been a legitimate daughter. How could she just become a servant?
All this was caused by Pei Jiuniang.
She has to be scolded by others, so that Pei Jiuniang will take her back because of her reputation.
Gu Yuzhi thought about it and cried even louder, which made these ladies from wealthy families very distressed and they gave her a lot of things.
Seeing this, she knelt down with a plop, "Please, don't blame Madam, it was Yuzhi who did something wrong."
Her hoarse voice and aggrieved look left these noble ladies with a deeper impression of Pei Jiuniang's intolerance.
What disappointed Gu Yuzhi was that although these people felt sorry for her and gave her things, none of them was willing to take her to find Pei Jiuniang and Li Jun to make the decision for her.
Finally, he only told her, "Good child, you have suffered."
Then they all left.
Gu Yuzhi was a little confused. She looked at the worthless bracelets, hairpins and silver ingots in her hands and threw them all away in anger.
Just as he was about to leave, he remembered that these things might be useful when he took them back, so he picked them up and hid them carefully.
Gu Yuzhi is undoubtedly smart.
She quickly came up with a good idea.
It seems those ladies just now misunderstood.
If she told Pei Jiuniang at this time, she would definitely be soft-hearted.
Thinking of this, Gu Yuzhi sneaked all the way to Pei Jiuniang's yard.
Looking at the familiar courtyard, Gu Yuzhi remembered that when she first came to the Marquis' Mansion, her grandmother told her and Gu Xijue that they would be the young ladies and masters of the Marquis' Mansion in the future, and the masters. She also said that the Marquis' Mansion would be theirs in the future, and that Pei was their stepmother, and it was her duty to take care of them.
But when they were brought to Pei's yard, Pei looked at them with displeasure. She would rather hold the dull and stupid dwarf in her hand than look at her and Gu Xijue even twice.
She tried to please her as her aunt had taught her, but it didn't work at all.
Later, she no longer wanted to be saved and went to live with her grandmother.
But Pei still couldn't tolerate her and even went to her grandmother to frame her, making her hate her.
It's all Pei's fault.
The more Gu Yuzhi thought about it, the angrier she became, and she stared at the yard with a grim look.
It soon attracted the attention of the servants and maids left behind in the yard, and they notified the nanny in charge.
The housekeeper notified Cuiping again. When Cuiping came out, she saw Gu Yuzhi staring at her with a gloomy face. She was startled. Just as she was about to ask her what she was doing there, she saw Gu Yuzhi's face change. In an instant, she looked pitiful and aggrieved.
"Sister Cuiping, I'm Yuzhi, I'm here to see the lady..."
Gu Yuzhi sobbed as she spoke, and deliberately revealed the wound on her wrist in an attempt to draw Cuiping's sympathy.
But Cuiping's eyes were cold throughout the whole process. Not only was there no pity, but there was even some disgust.
Their wife had people keep an eye on Gu Yuzhi, not letting go of her every move.
They knew exactly what had happened, what she had done, and even what she had dreamed about since she had been sent to the menial house.
At such a young age, he has already learned how to frame others.
The previous nanny was framed by her and beaten to death.
If it were her, she would feel guilty, but the boy in front of her, who was only five years old, was not afraid at all.
A life was lost because of her lie.
Thinking about it, Cuiping felt that Gu Yuzhi was terrifying.
Also, she cursed the lady every day. Although she hid it well, it was still exposed in her dreams.
I really don't know how he still has the nerve to come to see my wife.
"Madam took Master Xijue and Master Yuge to my grandparents' home early in the morning..."
Although she felt disgusted, she still told her as her mistress had instructed.
As expected by the lady, Gu Yuzhi's face turned a little unnatural when she heard her address him as "Master Gu Xijue".
Although it was concealed well, she still caught a glimpse of something strange.
"Xijue? Brother? Doesn't Madam dislike brother?"
Gu Yuzhi scratched her palms hard and lowered her head to hide the jealousy and unwillingness in her eyes.
How was that possible? She clearly remembered that Pei also disliked Gu Xijue.
She always thought that Gu Xijue was having the same hard time here as she was.
impossible? !
"What nonsense are you talking about? Master Xijue is well-behaved and obedient, and is studious and motivated. Our lady naturally likes him."
Cuiping said this deliberately, trying to see something from Gu Yuzhi's face, but Gu Yuzhi kept her head down.
Even at such a young age, he still hides himself.
"Like? How..."
Gu Yuzhi scratched her palm faster and faster, almost digging a piece of flesh off her palm.
Gu Xijue, him? !
Why should he? !
And Pei Jiuniang, how could she? !
Gu Yuzhi raised her head and glanced at the yard sinisterly. Finally, she turned and left without saying a word.
She thought a lot, remembering that she and Gu Xijue grew up together.
Her aunt was always very busy, so most of the time she and Gu Xijue depended on each other, and she really liked having such a brother.
But my aunt seemed to like my brother more. Although my aunt always said that she liked girls and that my brother was a stinky boy, when my aunt had something delicious, she would give it to Gu Xijue first.
At that time, she secretly tried to please her aunt, praising her beauty and how great she was. She could clearly feel that her aunt liked being praised.
Later, when they came to the Marquis' Mansion, she also tried to please her grandmother, who also said that she was well-behaved, sensible and obedient, but she seemed to like Gu Xijue more.
Later, she came to Pei, who didn't like her or Gu Xijue. She asked Gu Xijue to leave with her and go to his grandmother's house, but he didn't listen, so she left by herself.
She obviously did the right thing, why did she become a servant in the end, while Gu Xijue became the young master? !
The more Gu Yuzhi thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt, and her heart was filled with an unknown emotion.
She is not reconciled.
Be a servant and do it together.
Why is she the only one being tortured?
Why doesn’t Gu Xijue use it?
the other side.
Pei Jiuniang and her group had been walking for an hour, staggering along.
From the broad official road of Kyoto, we changed to the muddy dirt road, and finally into the mountain road.
The carriage bumped along the way.
Pei Jiuniang held Yu Ge in her arms at first, but later she gradually became weaker and had to put Yu Ge down and hold him in her arms.
On the opposite side, Gu Tingzhi and Gu Xijue were originally sitting not far from each other, but gradually, as the carriage bumped along, their seats became closer and closer, and later they gradually leaned against each other.
The carriage jolted violently and Gu Xijue nearly fell down. He subconsciously pulled Gu Tingzhi, who instinctively hugged him as well.
But I don’t know if it was my illusion, but since then, the mother and son opposite, especially Brother Yu, seemed to look at him with even colder eyes.
He was also feeling unhappy.
He thought that the child must want his father to love him more.
He also wanted to communicate with Brother Yu about the father-son relationship, but the child had been indifferent to him ever since he came back from Imperial Physician He.
He thought about it seriously.
Perhaps he felt that his mother's health had deteriorated because of him.
This is a good thing, so that the little child doesn’t feel that his mother sacrificed half her life giving birth to him.
However, looking at the mother and son opposite him, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, wondering what he could do to make it up to them.
The carriage was shaking violently and the journey was long, so Pei Jiuniang and Yu Ge were both drowsy and a little sleepy.
The mother and son, who were originally sleeping together, fell into a strong and warm embrace without knowing when.
But Gu Tingzhi on the opposite side saw all of this.
Just now, the carriage was passing a narrow road and almost overturned. At the critical moment, Gu Tingzhi ignored him who was also afraid, and went to protect Pei Jiuniang and Gu Yu.
It would be a lie to say that I am not jealous.
He clearly remembered that Gu Ting didn't care about them mother and son in his previous life.
what happened?
According to the plot, shouldn't Gu Tingzhi only like Wen Wan?
Could it be that he awakened early?
The more Gu Xijue thought about it, the more he felt that it was very likely, so he decided to observe it carefully.
Suddenly, there was another huge bump, and Pei Jiuniang seemed to have hit something hard in a daze, and woke up immediately from the pain.
