The abandoned wife of the noble family, she is Black Heart Lotus

Chapter 21
  After Xu Huizhu left Gu Deyin, she ran angrily to the plum garden where her mother, Mrs. Xu, lived.

She was already thinking about how to file a complaint. She wanted Gu Deyin to walk away without food this time.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to eliminate the hatred in her heart.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she stepped into the plum garden, she heard a fierce quarrel between her mother and her second brother.

The servants in Meiyuan were all shrinking their heads and not daring to raise their heads. She had doubts in her heart, but she still went inside.

Her second brother Xu Ningyu's angry voice became louder and louder.

"Mom, I really didn't expect you to be such a person. If Ruohe has any shortcomings, I will never be done with you!"

These words made her heart beat faster.

Then came her mother Xu's fierce response.

"You rebellious son, for the sake of a woman, you dare to disobey me, you will suffer..."

Just when she stepped into the inner room, she heard the servant's exclamation.

"Madam, madam fainted..."

She immediately quickened her pace and walked in, only to see her second brother walking out with a gloomy face.

"Second brother, where are you going? Mother fainted..."

She wanted to hold Xu Ningyu.

Unexpectedly, Xu Ningyu pushed her hand away, "Don't stop me."

Is this still the second brother who usually dotes on her?

Why does she feel so strange?

Seeing her second brother walking away, she looked around for a while, then picked up her skirt and went to the back room.

She still needs to seek justice from her mother.

Mrs. Xu in the back room was pinched hard for a long time, and then she faintly woke up.

As a result, she saw that only her second daughter was here, and the traitor was nowhere to be seen, and she suddenly felt sad.

"Mom, are you feeling better?"

She lowered her eyes slightly and did not take her anger out on her second daughter.

"You're better. You just got home. Why don't you take a rest first?"

As he spoke, he motioned to the maid to put the pillow up so that she could lean back more comfortably.

Seeing that there was nothing strange about her mother, Xu Huizhu started to complain angrily.

Finally, she clenched her fists in anger and contorted her face to conclude with hatred.

"Mom, Gu Deyin is so excessive, you have to punish her severely and let her know how to be the daughter-in-law of the Xu family."

Mrs. Xu frowned, and her displeasure with Gu Deyin increased. It seemed that just killing the chicken to scare the monkeys was not enough.

"Why did you provoke her?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Huizhu was unhappy.

"Mom, County Anning is going to hold a flower viewing party in two days. My clothes and jewelry haven't been found yet. Who should I look for if I don't look for her?"

The supply in the house is fixed, and if she wants to stand out, she has to go to Gu Deyin's place.

Who said that Gu Deyin's clothes and jewelry were the most popular in the capital?
  There are many things that my mother is reluctant to make for her.

Mrs. Xu had a headache and hurriedly pointed to the maid and massaged her forehead.

"You."

When Xu Huizhu heard her mother's words, she softened and immediately smiled and hugged her mother's arm.

"Mom, I knew you were the best to me."

Mrs. Xu patted her daughter's hand. At this moment, she didn't realize the seriousness of this matter.

Until Hua Chao, sent by Gu Deyin, brought a long list.

The mother and daughter's expressions changed.

Xu Huizhu screamed, "Gu Deyin, is she crazy?"

Mrs. Xu also looked sternly and said, "Does she dare to sue the official?"

When Hua Chao saw Mrs. Xu, she would think of the cat torture, and she couldn't help but feel frightened. However, as a servant, she could not lose the authority of her master.

So she straightened her back.

"Madam, the second grandma said that if she can't see everything on this list by tomorrow evening, she will go to the officials and let them check."

When Xu Huizhu heard this, she felt angry and annoyed, and a little scared at the same time. If she loses her reputation, where can she find a good family in the future?
  At this time, she hurriedly grabbed her mother.

"Mom, don't you care about Gu Deyin? If she acts like this, will the reputation of our Xuanning Marquis Mansion be lost?"

Mrs. Xu patted her daughter's hand reassuringly, signaling her to calm down.

Then she looked at Hua Chao coldly, "It's not her turn to have a daughter-in-law to take charge of the house in this house. I'm not dead yet."

Hua Chao was blessed, "My wife's words will be conveyed to the Second Mistress word for word."

As for whether her master wants to listen to you, it depends on her master's mood.

She immediately withdrew from the formation.

Xu's face turned livid instantly, and she wanted to have an attack, but couldn't find a reason.

She hasn't planned to really break up with Gu Deyin yet, after all, Gu Deyin's natal family is still there.

She coveted when she thought of the Gu family's wealth that day.

With a sharp look in her eyes, she instantly made a decision in her heart.

Looking up, she saw her eldest daughter Xu Huiyu hurried in, and her expression softened again.

Compared with the second daughter who has shallow eyes, this eldest daughter is in line with everyone's ladylike style.

Therefore, she has always loved her eldest daughter more.

"Don't worry, it's okay for mother."

Xu Huiyu hurriedly looked at her mother up and down for a while before she believed her mother's words.

"It scared my daughter to death."

When she heard that her mother was sick at her maternal grandfather's house, she immediately packed her things and came back. Fortunately, it was a false alarm.

Then, she complained, "Why is the second brother like this?"

When she mentioned the evil son who disobeyed her, Mrs. Xu's face turned ugly.

"Don't mention him. By the way, you came just in time. You can go to Lanxin Garden later."

"What happened?"

Xu Huiyu has never been very fond of Gu Deyin, so she is not very close to her.

Xu Huizhu on the side was busy shaking off all the previous things, "Sister, go and teach her a lesson."

"Nonsense." Xu Huiyu scolded him immediately.

Xu Huizhu stamped her feet angrily and angrily, "She wants to arrest me now and take me to the government. Do I have to endure her?"

"The point of a needle is like a thorn, it means you have fallen behind after all. My daughter will go and persuade the second sister-in-law later."

Hearing her eldest daughter's calm words, Mrs. Xu nodded happily.

Except for the eldest son who died early, among the remaining children, this eldest daughter was the only one who could give her peace of mind.

Xu Huiyu patted her second sister on the head and said, "Be good and stay here and take care of me. I'll come as soon as I go."

To her, this was just a small thing.

At this time, Gu Deyin was listening to Hua Chao's report, and Xu's reaction was what she expected.

Hua Chao said worriedly, "Second Grandma, I'm afraid my wife is going to be cruel."

Gu Deyin knew that she was not an orphan yet, and Mrs. Xu still had concerns.

At this moment, Huashu led two women, one old and one young, in.

After seeing the ceremony, she reported, "Second Grandma, this is Gui Niang and her daughter Xiu'er."

Gu Deyin then looked towards the mother and daughter, and saw that both mother and daughter had big faces, but tall and strong bodies. They must be from the Lian family.

Gui Niang stepped forward to salute Gu Deyin, looking graceful and generous.

"Second Grandma, my old servant's family used to run an escort agency, and he knew a lot of skills. However, later on, his family fell into decline, so he went to shopkeeper Li to earn a living."

Huashu leaned into Gu Deyin's ear and whispered.

"Second Grandma, the man in her family became addicted to gambling. All of our businesses were wiped out in an instant. Creditors came to collect debts, so they betrayed themselves."

And the girl named Xiu'er stepped forward and hugged her fists, looking neat and tidy.

"Second Grandma, in addition to being a good boxer, this servant has also learned the art of poison."

When Gu Deyin heard this, his eyes lit up instantly.
