I'm reborn, only a fool would spoil you

Chapter 289: Eight of the old lady’s confidants died!

Wooden Palace.

It is said that the old lady was so angry at Dieyi and the third uncle that she fainted twice in succession. They pinched her Ren Zhong point again and again... She was finally rescued by her nephew.

She beat her chest and yelled, "Dieyi, her third uncle, you two bad guys, if you have the guts, don't ever come to me for help!"

Beg her?

What do you need to ask her for?

Of course it’s a marriage!

Today, only this old lady is still able to show off her power as her biological mother.

At this time, Shen Yixiao, the nephew from her mother's family, was immediately displeased when he saw the old lady characterizing Dieyi as a "bad seed" and coaxed:

"Aunt, Princess Dieyi still respects you, but she has been raised outside since she was a child, so she doesn't quite understand the rules of the palace and likes to play tricks."

"But these are all minor matters. Aunt, please be magnanimous and don't bother with her. The real bad guy is that Third Uncle. He doesn't care about the seniority and even wants you to apologize to your daughter-in-law. What a bullshit."

Shen Yixiao tried hard to protect Dieyi, but stepped hard on his uncle.

When the old lady heard this, there was nothing she couldn't understand. Her nephew was really interested in Dieyi.

Regardless of whether you are attracted by Dieyi's beauty or cleverness, she is pretty good anyway.

Her original plan was to pair them up, and since coming to Beijing, something had finally gone well.

"Okay, auntie will listen to you. Dieyi is a good person and auntie likes her very much." The old lady forced a smile to comfort her nephew.

Shen Yixiao was really nice to her and even helped her go outside to the garden to relax.

As a result, before they even reached the garden, they heard Qiao Xing's begging voice coming from a small dark room in a secluded corner:

"... Please, give us something to eat. We are so hungry that we can't stand it any longer."

"I beg you……"

"You know, we are all the old lady's confidants. If you treat us well, the old lady will also praise you and promote you to be a manager..."

The gatekeeper pretended not to hear what was said before, until the last sentence, when the corners of her mouth drooped and she immediately laughed sarcastically:

"Tsk, promoting me to be a manager is the biggest joke in the world!"

"If the old lady really has that ability, why doesn't she let you guys out? Who are you trying to fool? Let me tell you, this Mu Mansion in the capital belongs to our princess. If she doesn't come back, you will starve for one more day."

"I advise you all to shut up and save some energy. In my opinion, the princess won't be back in the next few days. I hope you can survive until the princess comes back."

Qiao Xing became even more anxious when she heard this, and she shook the door and cried:

"The princess has gone back to her parents' home, and she won't be back for three to five days. The prince has also gone with her. Both masters are not in the mansion, so please be kind and secretly give us some food..."

The gatekeeper became mute again, looking as if she didn't want to be noticed.

The old lady saw this scene with her own eyes. She had finally recovered from the shock, but she became depressed again.

What kind of master is she? She can't even protect her own trusted maids and old women!

Shen Yixiao saw this and quickly coaxed her:

"My nephew knows that my aunt is kind-hearted, and I wish I could let them out right now so that they can have a full meal. But the prince has already said that if the princess doesn't come back, they will have to starve for a day."

"Let's not go against the prince, and just wait for the princess to return home."

"In my humble opinion, the princess is a kind-hearted person. She will not have the heart to let them starve to death. They will be full and come back in two days."

Kindness?

When the old lady heard this, she sneered and said, "Bah, if she had a kind heart, she would have come back today!"

Why wait two days?

Unexpectedly, not only did she return in two days, but she also did not return from her parents' home for five days.

This time, the old lady was extremely anxious.

What should I do? What should I do?

Her Jiao Xing, her Nanny Liu, Nanny Yang... they have been with her for most of her life, they would not just starve to death, right?

On the morning of the sixth day, the old lady opened her eyes and anxiously opened the bed curtains, shouting, "Is the princess back?"

The little maid who was keeping watch outside raised her head, looked at the faint light outside the window, and became speechless.

It's not even daybreak yet, how could the princess return home?

The old lady waited and waited anxiously until the sun was high in the sky, but Fu Yushu still didn't return home.

"How are Qiao Xing and the others? Are they still breathing?" The old lady was so anxious that several blisters appeared at the corners of her mouth.

As soon as she asked, she was afraid that the little maid was Fu Yushu's person and would not tell her the truth.

He hurriedly walked out to the small dark room where he was imprisoned and observed carefully through the crack in the door.

The result was shocking: Qiao Xing and the maids, who had been hungry for six days, were all lying on the straw pile... motionless.

Dying!

"Is this going to starve to death?"

The old lady felt like the sky was falling. These confidants had been with her for at least a dozen years. Without them, how would she live in the future?

There is not even a useful person around me.

"Xiao'er, Xiao'er..." The old lady was so anxious that her steps became disordered. She ran to her nephew Shen Yixiao's room tremblingly, begging him for some advice.

Shen Yixiao thought about it and came up with a bad idea:

"Don't worry, aunt. I think the princess doesn't know about the situation in our house. I will write a letter in my own name and report Qiao Xing and the others' situation to the princess."

"The princess is kind-hearted. She will definitely come back as soon as she receives the letter."

Upon hearing this, the old lady urged, "Xiao'er, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and write!"

"Oh." Shen Yixiao was a scholar with good writing skills. In less than half a quarter of an hour, he finished writing a thick letter home.

It was immediately sent to the Marquis of Jingyang’s Mansion.

~

It is said that when the concierge came over with the letter, Fu Yushuo, Fu Yuzheng, Cui Jiaojiao and Dieyi were enjoying the flowers in the back garden.

Mu Shaoheng, Gao Ni, Fu Linghao and Fu Xiaozhen were sitting in the pavilion chatting.

Gao Ni had sharp eyes. He caught sight of the concierge who was still far away, and said to Mu Shaoheng with a smile, "

"Brother, I bet that letter came from your Mu Mansion."

It goes without saying who wrote it. It was most likely written by an old lady who missed her son too much.

Even if it was not her own letter, she must have instructed someone else to write it on her behalf.

After all, since the day the conflict broke out, Mu Shaoheng left the Mu Mansion and moved into the Jingyang Marquis Mansion. It has been six days since the mother and son were separated.

It is normal for the old lady to be unable to bear the neglect and to be anxious and seek peace.

Hearing this, Mu Shaoheng also looked up at the concierge. When she came closer, Mu Shaoheng asked directly, "Whose letter is it?"

The concierge was originally going to go to her eldest daughter, but now that she saw her eldest son-in-law asking, she simply came to the pavilion and replied respectfully:

"It's a letter from a cousin in the Mu Mansion, saying it's from the princess herself."

Cousin?

Shen Yi smiled?

What could he want to find Shu'er for?

Mu Shaoheng's curiosity was immediately aroused, and he reached out to take the letter.

The concierge: ...

The envelope was written with "Personally from the Princess". Would it be inappropriate for the prince to open it and read it directly, bypassing the girl?

Mu Shaoheng obviously didn't think it was inappropriate. Husband and wife are one body, so why couldn't they watch it?

Gao Ni glared at the concierge at the right time.

The frightened concierge quickly handed over the letter, which finally landed in Mu Shaoheng's hands.

He quickly tore it open, took out the letter and was shocked to see the content inside - he actually accused Shu'er of being "kind" and forced her to return to Mu's Mansion just to release those extremely evil slaves?

There was a chill in Mu Shaoheng's eyes.

Gao Ni had sharp eyes, and with just a casual glance, he was able to get a rough idea of ​​the contents of the letter.

He smiled and said, "Brother, in many cases, the master may not have a bad heart, but if the confidants around him are all deliberately stirring up trouble, then sooner or later the master will be instigated to do bad things."

The implication is that evil servants cannot be kept.

Mu Shaoheng nodded: "My second brother and I have the same opinion."

After saying that, Mu Shaoheng tore up the letter from home and told his confidant to find a secluded place to burn it.

At this time, Fu Yushu came with a few large autumn chrysanthemums in her hands, walked into the pavilion with a smile, and asked Mu Shaoheng: "Brother Shaoheng, is this a letter from my mother?"

"It was written by my cousin. They are all unimportant little things." Mu Shaoheng said casually and changed the subject.

Typical, don't cause trouble to Shu'er.

Mu Shaoheng knew very well that given Shu'er's kind nature, once she found out that those slaves would starve to death if she didn't go back, she would definitely... pack up her things and set off back immediately.

However, being kind to the slaves is being cruel to the kind people.

Mu Shaoheng has been in charge of the southwest for more than ten years. How could he not understand this truth?

So, when Cui Jiaojiao came over and expressed her intention to keep Shu'er for a few more days, Mu Shaoheng directly stated:

"Of course I have to stay for a few more days. The day I came here, I made an agreement with my father-in-law that I would stay for a full half month."

Half a month?

When Cui Jiaojiao heard this, she jumped for joy!

The old lady waited impatiently in the Mu Mansion, waiting and waiting until the sun went down, but Fu Yushuo still didn't come home.

After waiting for another two or three days, Fu Yushu still hadn't returned, and the old lady's confidants who were imprisoned in a small dark room could no longer endure it and starved to death one after another.

When one person died, a dead body was carried out.

The first one to starve to death was the most favored one, Jiao Xing. The old lady stood in front of the door of the small dark room, holding onto the door frame and crying heartbrokenly.

By the time all eight of her confidants had died and not one was left, the old lady could no longer cry. Her throat had become red and swollen from crying and she could no longer make a sound.

Only the tears are left flowing silently.

"Fu Yushu, you hypocritical and evil villain, listen to me. From today on, we will never coexist!"

“Irreconcilable!”

The old lady was roaring madly in her heart!

After the rant, he fainted due to excessive emotion.

The old lady slid down the door frame and fell to the ground, lying in front of the small dark room where her eight confidants were last imprisoned.
