Chapter 319 Young Master’s Three Money Wife Master (24)

She almost forgot what Mrs. Liu looked like. In her memory, the handsome young man was sitting under a tree playing the piano with slender fingers and melodious sound.

I once also amazed her heart and spent the best years with her.

Since when did they become more and more distant from each other?

It seems that the mansion recruited servants, the Ruan family and the Zhao family entered the mansion one by one...

After standing there for an unknown amount of time, Gu Caiqi regained his composure and walked towards the room with the open door.

When they met each other, everyone was shocked.

A touch of coldness flashed across Liu's ruddy face, and it faded away quickly.

Qiuzhu and Gu Nanmo got up one after another, saluted Gu Caiqi and said hello.

Gu Caiqi nodded lightly, glanced at the clothes on Gu Nanmo's body, and then at the food on the table.

There are three bowls of rice, a small dish of pickles in the middle, and a small pot of vegetable soup without even a drop of oil or water on it.

Gu Caiqi's face became more and more ugly, and his hands hanging in his sleeves were clenched tightly. He wanted to ask something, but he felt full of guilt.

Although she was not a long-term lover, she would not want to torture her lord and son-in-law to death.

There seemed to be something stuck in his throat, and there was bitterness in his mouth.

"Is this the meal brought to you by the kitchen?"

Qiuzhu lowered her eyes and didn't dare to say anything, and Liu Shi lightly pursed her lips and didn't intend to answer.

The corner of Gu Nanmo's mouth twitched into sarcasm, and he said calmly: "Mother is worrying too much, the Ruan family is the head of the family, how can you be willing to send us such meals?"

Mrs. Liu glanced at her son and was about to stop him from continuing. He didn't want his son to anger Gu Caiqi. After all, that person was his mother.

"This rice was bought with Qiuzhu's embroidered handkerchief and I exchanged it for copper coins, and this pickle was pickled by Qiuzhu himself. If mother wants to see what Ruan ordered the kitchen to send us, I'll bring it for you. "

After Gu Nanmo finished speaking, he turned and walked out without waiting for Gu Caiqi to react.

After a while, he came in with a broken porcelain bowl. In the porcelain bowl were two pieces of moldy steamed buns, and half a bowl of rotten vegetables, mixed with two pieces of pure white fat.

"Is this what they give you to eat?"

Gu Caiqi's voice trembled a little, and his body trembled slightly.

She clearly told Ruan Shi before that even though Liu Shi moved to the small courtyard due to illness, the food and moon silver for the father and son would still be the same as before.

Is this ordered by the Ruan family, or is the subordinate bullying the superior and the inferior to bully their father and son?
Gu Nanmo had a cold face and wanted to say more ugly words, but Liu Shi opened his mouth one step ahead of him.

"I don't know if there is something wrong with the wife-lord coming over?"

Liu's heart is full of resentment against Gu Caiqi, for being ruthless and ungrateful, for ignoring her son and allowing a concubine to bully her.

But he knew there was nothing he could do right now.

Not for anything else, just for his son.

Gu Nanmo is fourteen years old this year, and he has reached the age of marriage, so he can't let the Ruan family interfere in the marriage of his son.

Therefore, only if he pretended to forgive Gu Caiqi and take advantage of the guilt in her heart, could he find a good family for his son.

Gu Caiqi is lustful and cares about face. As long as he doesn't make mistakes, his son is the son of the Gu family. This point can never be changed.

Gu Caiqi's eyes flickered, and he didn't dare to look directly at Mrs. Liu.

"I'll come and see you, are you feeling better?"

Mrs. Liu nodded: "I have to worry about my wife, and I will recover in three to five days."

"I saw that your complexion has improved a lot. If that's the case, then move back to live! This place...is not suitable for recuperating."

Gu Caiqi knew that she was a little guilty when she said this, but at the beginning the doctor said that Liu's disease was contagious, so she agreed to Ruan's proposal and sent him here for the safety of the entire Gu family.

Now that his illness is cured, it's time to move back.

He is the rightful lord of the Gu family, there is no doubt about that.

Gu Caiqi's arrival was surprising, and her words were even more surprising.

It's just that Mrs. Liu is still thinking about the girl coming to see him, so naturally she won't agree to move back now.

"The doctor said that it will take three to five days to recover. I'd better wait until my body is fully recovered before going back!"

Liu's tone was flat, without any emotion, it was more like a slap in the face to Gu Caiqi.

"Then... that's fine, take your time, I'm leaving first."

Gu Caiqi left in a bit of embarrassment. She considered herself quite talented and good-looking, so she always didn't take men seriously.

Looking at the bowl of pickled vegetables on the table of Zhengjun and Dizi now, I just feel that my whole face is burning.

For a person who is proud of her talents and loves face very much, Zheng Jun and his son were bullied like this in the mansion, she was naturally shameless.

It's no wonder that the emperor and Prince Shun reprimanded her because of her negligence.

"What happened to her?"

Gu Nanmo couldn't understand Gu Caiqi's meaning, how could he think of their father and son in such a good way?
Liu shook her head, he didn't know what happened to her.

But he knew that their future days would never be so difficult again.

Gu Caiqi came out of the small courtyard, went directly to the housekeeper, and ordered everyone in the mansion to be called to the front yard, including those servants and concubines.

Looking at the dense crowd of people standing below, Gu Caiqi's face became more and more ugly.

Even a second-class waiter wore better clothes than her son's. Gu Nanmo's clothes that were frayed to the point of fraying made her eyes hurt.

Looking at Gu Caiqi's face, Ruan felt a little worried.

Gu Nanqing on the side tugged at Ruan Shi's sleeve, and Ruan Shi only shook his head at him.

"Zhengjun moved to the small yard to be raised due to illness, the eldest son is filial, and followed him to serve, but they are still the masters of this mansion!"

After Gu Caiqi finished speaking, the tea cup he said was thrown out, splashing all over the floor with broken porcelain pieces and tea leaves.

"Housekeeper, go and get the account books from the mansion for nearly half a year."

Gu Caiqi sat on the chair, poured himself another cup of tea, and then gave instructions to the butler without raising his head.

She never cared about the affairs in the backyard. Now it seems that the intrigue in this backyard is no simpler than that in court.

The housekeeper froze, and then hurried to find the account book, but Ruan clutched the handkerchief tightly, feeling a bad premonition in his heart.

Could it be that the wife owner had heard something outside, so when he returned to the mansion, his face turned ugly, and he took the initiative to visit that old man of the Liu family?
But in front of everyone, Ruan didn't dare to act like a baby with Gu Caiqi, let alone talk too much.

Gu Caiqi glanced at the people working in the kitchen again, and asked sharply, "Who is responsible for the food and drink of the lord and the eldest son?"

Everyone in the kitchen looked at each other and shook their heads.

"Okay, okay! I really raised a group of good servants, and they all rode on the head of the master."

Gu Caiqi was laughed out of anger. She always thought that Mrs. Liu just got sick and moved to another yard, but she didn't expect that these people in the mansion wanted to starve their father and son to death!
