Lord Gu began to order a thorough investigation into Yao's poisoning.

According to the account of the two little girls, the medicine was boiled by Fang and also sent by Fang.

"Call Mother Fang here!" Lord Gu ordered coldly.

After a while, someone came to report: "Huihou, Madam Fang is gone!"

Gu Houye's big palm clenched into a fist.

Soon, he remembered that Fang mama had a niece in the mansion: "Where's that maid named Cuicui? Bring her to Ben Hou!"

"Yes!" The servant took the order.

In order not to attract attention, Mama Fang did not take Cuicui away.

When Cuicui realized that something seemed wrong, she hurriedly packed her bags and left, but unfortunately it was a step too late and the guards of the villa caught her.

It was only when she was brought to Lord Gu that she found out that Yao Shi was actually poisoned.

Whoever used the toes could guess that it was Mama Fang.

Cuicui thumped and knelt on the ground, trembling and said, "Your Majesty, spare your life! It's not the servants who did it! The servants don't know anything! The servants are wronged!"

Lord Gu said, "Injustice? Then this Marquis asks you, how did Madam faint?"

Cuicui hesitated and said, "Yes... yes..."

Lord Gu sarcastically said: "Okay, it's useless to keep this tongue, then it's better to pull it out!"

Cuicui's body trembled: "The servant said! The servant said everything! It was Mrs. Fang... Mrs. Fang asked the servant to do it! She asked the servant to tell the lady what she overheard on purpose!"

Gu Houye's heart tightened: "What did you say?"

Cuicui said in fear, "Just...I said...the lady is not biological...it's the wrong hug..."

"You bastard!" Master Gu was so angry that he smashed the tea cup at hand!

Cuicui crawled on the shards of the tea cup, her hands bleeding, but she didn't dare to move: "Sir, spare your life... It was Mother Fang who forced the slaves..."

Lord Gu was worried about this, so he never dared to tell Yao Shi the truth. He would rather not recognize that child for the rest of his life, and he didn't want Yao Shi to make a mistake!

But he was careful, but let the two cheap servants stab the truth out!

He said sharply, "Madam treats her well! Why did she do this?"

Cuicui sobbed: "I don't know... Auntie... it's not... it's Mama Fang... She asks her to do things... She never allows her to ask why... The slave doesn't know why she framed her... If the slave doesn't, she doesn't know why... Listening to her words, she will let her nephew beat the slave servant to death! Lord Hou Mingjian, what the slave servant said is true!"

"Oh, you listen to her words more than Ben Hou and his wife, why? Her words are imperial edicts?" At this level, how could Master Gu not see that Cuicui's words were half-truths.

It's true that Mama Fang instructed her, but her prodigal ambition is even more real. If she didn't covet the benefits that Mama Fang promised her, how could she work for Mama Fang?

She shouldn't be able to ask anything here, and Marquis Gu waved his hand in disgust: "Drag it down and beat him to death."

"Master Hou, spare your life! Master Hou, forgive me—"

The guard didn't give her a chance to go around, so he blocked her mouth with a rag and dragged her down for execution.

The guards of the villa divided into four groups to arrest Mama Fang. When it was dark, they finally found the trace of Mama Fang, but it was a pity that Mama Fang had already hanged herself on a big tree.

"Dead?" In the study, Gu Houye became cold.

Huang Zhong is a warrior, and he has no roots in intrigue, but he has been in a pile of dead people to examine people's bodies. on the tree?

Gu Houye looked solemn: "So... she is silenced?"

Huang Zhong, who kept his mouth shut, did not dare to speak falsely, but he was sure that Fang mama was homicide.

Gu Hou Ye was silent for a long time: "I understand, these days you have strengthened the vigilance of the villa, and all the people around the madam except the housemaid have been dismissed."

"Yes!"

Lord Gu went to Yao's house.

The housemaid was sick and kept in the house,

The smell is not very good.

Lord Gu said to her, "Go and rest, you don't have to come tonight."

Fang Momo did not immediately retreat, but paused and said boldly, "Master Hou, do you have to bring Madam back to Beijing?"

"What's wrong?" Gu Houye asked.

Mistress Fang said earnestly: "The slaves know that the Hou Mansion loves his wife, but in the entire Hou Mansion, except for the Hou Ye, I am afraid that no one welcomes the wife back."

Lord Gu clenched his fists: "She is Ben Hou's wife, and Ben Hou will take care of her, so you don't need to worry!"

"Master Hou..."

Lord Gu's eyes were like torches: "This marquis will not let her do anything again!"

Fang Momo didn't refute any more, and bowed to Lord Gu Hou: "This slave and maid retire."

Lord Gu blocked the news of Yao's yard and did not let Gu Yan and Gu Jinyu know.

An hour later, Yao shi slowly woke up.

Gu Houye sat by the bed, held her hand, and asked softly, "Are you awake? Is there any discomfort?"

Yao Shi shook his head weakly and looked at him fixedly: "Where is the child? Where is my child?"

At this point, Lord Gu has nothing to hide. He clenched her hand tightly, took a deep breath and said, "She's here just now."

Yao Shi was excited again.

Gu Houye was afraid that she would faint again, so he hurriedly supported her shoulders and said, "Don't get excited, just listen to me and finish what I have to say. She is fine, I have found her, and I will bring her when you are cured. You go see her."

Yao Shi said without hesitation, "I'm fine!"

Lord Gu said: "I know, I know, it's just that it's too late today, and you used to disturb her to rest. I promise you tomorrow morning."

Only then did Yao shi lie down again.

She looked at him puzzled: "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Lord Gu was silent.

Yao shi frowned: "Don't you want to recognize that child?"

Gu Houye scared her so much that her liver trembled, and the huge desire to survive made him decide between confessing and lying: "Nothing! Don't think about it! She is my flesh and blood, how can I Maybe don't want to recognize her? It's just... I've been wrong once, and I don't want to be wrong again."

Lord Gu told Yao Shi about Yaoyin.

"...I want to tell you after I get her blood and merge with Yan'er. But Yan'er gets along very well with her. I think if it wasn't for the blood connection, Yan'er wouldn't like her so much."

Yao's expression was startled: "Yan'er has seen her too?"

Lord Gu nodded slowly: "...Yes, she is the little medicine boy from Huichuntang."

"Is there a portrait of her?" Yao Shi couldn't wait to see what her daughter looked like.

Gu Houye hesitated: "This..."

"Please, Lord Hou." Yao Shi begged him for the first time.

Just because of the portrait of a stinky girl, Gu Houye felt uncomfortable.

But Lord Gu still took the risk of painting, and it seemed that he would never be able to refuse Yao Shi.

However, when Yao Shi excitedly opened the scroll, his smile suddenly froze: "What are you painting?"

Circle fork circle fork circle fork? !

Is this round or square cake a face?

Are the two asymmetrical green beans the eyes?

Are your nostrils going to the sky?

And the mouth is also crooked!

Gu Hou Ye coughed awkwardly and said solemnly, "She is ugly."

I will never admit that I am ugly!

The talented Gu Houye has always had an unknown secret, that is, his calligraphy and painting are sloppy, and outsiders can only ask for Gu Houye's calligraphy treasures, but I don't know that he dares not be seen at all.

"You're ugly!" Yao shi threw the painting back into his arms, lifted the quilt and was about to get out of bed.

Gu Houye guessed at a glance what she wanted to do, and said calmly, "Are you going to find Yan'er for a portrait? Hehehe, he's not as good at painting as me."

Yao Shi, who really wanted to kill him: "..."

Yao finally got a portrait of her daughter.

It was painted by Gu Jinyu.

Gu Houye didn't tell Gu Jinyu the truth, and only asked her to draw the appearance of the little drug boy. Gu Jinyu's painting skills were so good that he could at least rank in the top three among the noble girls in the capital.

Gu Houye brought the portrait to Yao Shi.

When Yao shi saw the little girl on the portrait clearly, her expression suddenly froze.

Now that it was getting dark, and when Gu Jiao returned to the village, the sun had not yet descended.

The Gu family has been quiet recently.

I heard that Mr. Gu lost his position in the right place, and the Gu family’s tens of acres of tenant land was also taken away. Those tenant fields were originally allocated to the Gu family to grow, and they were said to be tenant land, but the annual rent was only more than 100. It's just a pound, and it's no different from a free gift.

This is not only the light of Old Master Gu, but also the light of Gu Dashun.

But now, it's all gone.

The life of the Gu family has become stretched.

I heard that Gu Dashun's bundle repair is about to fail.

But this has nothing to do with Gu Jiao, so Gu Jiao is too lazy to pay attention to them.

Gu Jiao had a burning pain in her back. She didn't care too much and went to the stove to make dinner.

Xiao Jingkong squatted in the backyard to feed the chickens. Halfway through feeding, he grabbed a little yellow chicken and walked over: "Jiaojiao, Jiaojiao, Xiaoqi doesn't eat! Is it sick?"

"I said earlier that you can't raise chickens. Look, you're going to raise it to death."

It was Xiao Liulang's joking voice.

Xiao Jingkong turned his head angrily and stomped his feet on his hips: "I don't! Xiao Qi won't die! I took good care of it!"

"Show me." Gu Jiao stretched out her hand.

Xiao Jingkong felt wronged and placed Xiao Qi in Gu Jiao's palm.

He said confident words, but his eyes were a little red.

It can be seen that the little guy is sincere and Xiaoqi will be raised to death by himself.

Gu Jiao touched the chick's belly and said with a smile, "It's full and can't eat anymore."

"Ah?" Xiao Jingkong looked at the chick with wide black eyes, scratched his head, and asked with a look of resentment, "Xiao Qi, are you robbing food again?"

Chicken: "Gee!"

Xiao Jingkong took back the chicken, stuck out his tongue to his brother-in-law, and put Xiao Qi back in the chicken coop.

Xiao Liulang gave him a funny look, his eyes turned to Gu Jiao's face, and found that her face was paler than usual.

"The meal is ready, let's eat." Gu Jiao said.

Xiao Liulang paused: "Okay."

At dinner, Gu Jiao didn't have a good appetite.

Xiao Jingkong held the bowl and chopsticks and asked her, "Jiaojiao, are you full?"

Xiao Liulang gave her a complicated look.

The old lady also looked at her.

Gu Xiaoshun also raised his head and said stunned: "Sister, your face is so ugly? Are you sick?"

Xiao Jingkong put down the bowls and chopsticks, got up and stood on the stool: "Nonsense! Jiaojiao won't get sick!"

"I'm not sick."

He wasn't really sick, he must have been injured a little.

The pain is painful, but she was used to this kind of pain in her previous life, and she didn't care about it at all. She forgot that the body itself was tough enough, so how could she withstand the whip of a military general?

At night, Gu Jiao's condition worsened.

Lightning flashes in the dark night sky, illuminating the room flickering.

The small headroom on the bed lay on his little pillow, drooling in sleep.

Xiao Liulang opened his eyes, looked in the direction of the door, hesitated for a while and sat up, first pulled the quilt over which he kicked over for Xiaojingkong, then put on his clothes and went to Gu Jiao's house.

Gu Jiao used to lock the door. Ever since Xiao Jingkong was awakened by a nightmare in the middle of the night, she came to her with a pillow but couldn't open the door. She cried for a long time.

After that, Gu Jiao didn't lock the door.

Xiao Liulang pushed open the hidden door, and there was a faint bloody smell coming from his nostrils.

Xiao Liulang frowned, paused, and walked into the house.

"Gu... Gu Jiao."

He called her but didn't respond, so he came to the bed.

He reached out his hand and touched Gu Jiao's forehead, it was hot!

Another flash of lightning started, illuminating the room as bright as day, and Xiao Liulang saw the bloody clothes on the chair.

His face changed, and he picked up the blood coat, and then found that it was a small coat.

It was not a soft and cheap material, but it had been honed on her delicate skin, and the bloody smell gave off a girly fragrance that seemed to exist.

Xiao Liulang's ears were red to see where the bloodstains were. He determined that Gu Jiao was injured on his back. He took a deep breath and planned to turn Gu Jiao over, and then go to invite a husband over.

As soon as his hand approached Gu Jiao, it was caught by Gu Jiao's cold little hand.

She said tuggingly: "I don't sleep in the middle of the night, trying to take advantage of me."

Xiao Liulang was embarrassed for a while and explained: "No, I am..."

"Don't occupy too much." After Gu Jiao said vaguely, she fell asleep in a daze.

So...is it a dream?

Xiao Liulang's breathing was slightly short, and cold sweat was seeping out.

But that's not the scariest thing.

He turned his head inadvertently, and another flash of lightning started, revealing the gloomy little figure of the old lady at the door.

His hair is standing up!

The old lady entered the room with a blank face and put a bottle of gold sore medicine on Gu Jiao's table.

Xiao Liulang's shirt was soaked through.

He couldn't tell whether he was more afraid or more guilty.

After all, his hand was still on her chest. Although she was pulled over by her, it seemed that he took the initiative no matter what.

"Auntie, don't get me wrong..."

"Isn't it a couple? There is something wrong with Mao?"

The old lady put down the golden sore medicine and snorted.

Really!

The moon is dark and the wind is high!

Don't give her the whole little great-grandson soon!
