No one answered Liu Tianshu's words, but Qingshan Guanxue knew who she was talking to.

At this moment, Mother Zheng brought in a plate of watermelon from outside.

The weather is so hot that life would be meaningless if I don’t eat a piece of iced watermelon to cool off every day.

Looking at the watermelon that Mother Zheng held up, Liu Tianshu, her master and her servant all had their eyes lit up at the same time.

"Nurse, we are thirsty. You came at the perfect time..."

"Miss, you just say nice things to please me, an old woman."

Mother Zheng smiled and placed the watermelon plate in front of Liu Tianshu, and gave the largest piece to her.

Liu Tianshu didn't hesitate to take the watermelon and started eating it. Then she invited Zheng's mother and the other two to eat the watermelon together.

After receiving Liu Tianshu's instructions, the four masters and servants began to eat happily.

Compared to the happiness of Liu Tianshu and her servant, Gu Jinyun was warmly received by Tao'er and the other two after returning to Fuguang Courtyard. They served him all kinds of iced grapes and iced watermelons, which instantly improved his troubled mood.

"You are so thoughtful."

Reaching out and holding Haitang and Qiangwei in his arms, Gu Jinyun did not forget to call Taoer.

It was this voice that made Tao'er so flattered that she almost dropped the palm-leaf fan in her hand.

Haitang and Qiangwei saw Tao'er's disappointing appearance and raised a mocking smile at the corners of their lips.

"My Lord, you must be feeling hot after going out. Eat a piece of iced watermelon to cool down."

As Qiangwei spoke, she picked up a piece of cut watermelon with a toothpick and put it to Gu Jinyun's mouth.

As the cool watermelon flesh took a bite, Gu Jinyun felt that all the heat in his body disappeared, and even the slight gloom in his heart disappeared.

"My Lord, have a grape."

Haitang fed a grape into Gu Jinyun's mouth.

After taking a bite of the grape, Gu Jinyun lowered his head and kissed Haitang on her beautiful red lips.

Accustomed to the intimacy with Gu Jinyun, Haitang subconsciously deepened the kiss. Just as she was about to make further efforts, she heard Xiao Sanyuan's voice coming from outside the door.

"My Lord, news just came from Liuyuan that Madam not only confined Concubine Liu to her house, but also confined all the servants in her courtyard to her house."

Being interrupted, Haitang said unhappily, "They are just a few servants. Why are you bothering the Marquis with such a small matter? Little Sanyuan, you are not doing your job as the steward of Fuguangyuan."

After saying that, Haitang put her arms around Gu Jinyun's neck and was about to take him to her room.

"Master Hou..."

Xiao Sanyuan was not angry after being told off by a servant named Haitang. He was about to say something when he heard Gu Jinyun say, "Madam Liu was disrespectful to Madam. Madam must punish her slightly and give her a severe warning. Just do as Madam says."

"Yes!"

Hearing the impatience in Gu Jinyun's voice, Xiao Sanyuan didn't dare to speak again and looked at a little maid beside him in embarrassment.

This little maidservant was originally a cleaning maid outside the Willow Garden. She took Bi Yu's money and came here to ask the Marquis to take charge of Madam Liu.

The little maid also heard Gu Jinyun's words. Seeing Xiao Sanyuan's dilemma, she dared not stay any longer and walked out the door in a panic.

She was a servant in the Marquis's mansion, and her indenture was still in the hands of the lady. It was considered worth the five taels of silver for her to make this trip for Aunt Liu. As for whether the Marquis wanted to go or not, she really had no choice.

The little maid ran all the way back to Willow Garden, but she couldn't get in at all. She happened to see Biyu walking out of the house and spread her hands helplessly to her.

When Biyu saw the little maid coming back by herself, she knew that Gu Jinyun was unwilling to come.

He sighed and walked into Liu Tian'er's room.

Although the doors and windows of Liu Tian'er's place are now open and the room is no longer as stuffy as before, there is no ice to use.

Accustomed to the stuffiness in the room, Liu Tian'ai didn't care about the heat in the room, or rather, she didn't care about anything around her at all and was only trying to figure out how to deal with Liu Tianshu.

After all the calculations, her next chance to take action would be the banquet at the Marquis' Mansion in half a month.

Enduring the pain in her mouth and cheeks, Liu Tian'ai saw Biyu come in and waved to her.

Biyu walked over and saw Liu Tian'ai walk to the desk and start writing.

Biyu and Bihe have been with Liu Tian'ai since childhood and are literate. Now that she can't speak, she can only write instead.

As Liu Tianyi wrote more and more, Biyu didn't wait for him to say what he wanted to say, and said directly: "Auntie, it's useless. We are now locked up in this yard like you and can't get out."

"what?"

Liu Tian'ai was shocked and paused the brush in her hand. A large drop of ink fell on the paper. Neither of them paid any attention to the drop of ink.

"What's going on? Explain it to me..."

"Auntie, I just found out about this. Madam has people guarding the garden to prevent our people from communicating with outsiders. Our people can't leave, and outsiders can't come in."

"Liu Tianshu, she dares..."

Liu Tian'ai's voice became hoarse after shouting this, which shows how loud her voice was and how angry she was.

"boom……"

The table that had just been propped up was overturned to the ground again by Liu Tian'ai, and Biyu subconsciously stepped back.

If possible, Biyu really didn't want to face the furious Liu Tian'er, but she was now the top maid in Liuyuan. Even Bihe could hide, but she couldn't.

"Auntie..."

"roll……"

Liu Tian'ai glared at Biyu angrily.

She had just thought of many ways to punish Liu Tianshu, but those ideas were all based on the fact that her people could enter and leave Liu Garden at will.

Now his plan was forced to abort before it even started to be implemented. Liu Tian'ai could no longer suppress the anger in his heart and once again threw the room he had just cleaned into a mess.

Biyu watched quietly from the side, with no intention of stepping forward to stop it.

It's not that she didn't want to, but if she went forward, not only would it have no effect, but it would only increase her anger.

If it wasn't so obvious at this moment, Biyu would rather be outside the door than inside.

Liu Tian'ai was really angry, so angry that she lost her mind, and she smashed everything in the room. When she was tired, she sat on the bare bed and cried silently.

Her mother's life in the Liu family was so comfortable that she thought that all concubines in other families were as happy as her mother, otherwise she would not have been so foolish as to plot against Gu Jinyun.

Only now do I realize that although the mistress of the house and the concubine only differ in status, their circumstances are extremely different.

At the same time, she also overlooked that although Gu Jinyun had a noble status, she did not have as deep feelings for her as Liu Lanqi had for Aunt Tian, ​​and she did not have a mother-in-law like Tian behind her.

Life in the Marquis' Mansion was so far different from what she had expected. She regretted it, really regretted it, but there is no medicine for regret in the world, and she would have to live in the Marquis' Mansion for decades.

When she thought about how she would have to live under Liu Tianshu's control in the future, Liu Tianyi couldn't help but shudder...
