Start with the humble bridegroom

Chapter 162
He Yegang was about to continue to quibble.

Meng Xiaowan shook her head: "Next."

As soon as she finished speaking, Mother Chen walked to the side room beside the hall and brought out a woman.

As soon as the woman came out, she stared at He Ye for a few times, and then smiled.Behind her were four strong women, who pointed at the lotus leaf with a smile: "Let's pack this up."

He Ye felt that the woman in front of her seemed to have seen it somewhere before.

But before she could react, several women surrounded her.

He Ye thought she was going to hit her with the board, and was about to yell.One of the women with sharp eyes and quick hands grabbed the lotus leaf's bun and pulled it back.

When the head was tilted back to eat the pain, He Ye couldn't help but grow his mouth.A woman took out the cloth ball that she had prepared long ago and stuffed it into He Ye's mouth, then quickly took a piece of cloth and strangled He Ye's mouth.

The other two women grabbed He Ye's two arms and turned backwards skillfully, and He Ye couldn't move.The last woman took out a long rope from behind, wiped her shoulders and folded her arms. The four women combined their efforts to tie up the hands and feet of the lotus leaf tightly.

He Ye panicked, and then remembered who the leading lady was.

Mrs. You from the Dental Shop on the next street!Miss Biao, this is going to sell her!
The lotus leaf whined and wanted to beg for mercy, but the human goods that Mrs. You finally received could not satisfy her, so she waved her hand and asked the women to carry the man into the ear room.

Mother Chen took the body deed of He Ye from Gu Shuyi and went to the ear room.

Mrs. Yan was guarding the third girl. She saw that Gu Shuyi's hands were trembling when she handed over the birth certificate, so she patted the girl on the back lightly.

"The girl is now learning to be a housekeeper from her cousin. The first thing to do is to harden your heart. This lotus leaf stole the mistress's things and ran away, leaving the seriously ill master alone in the room for a whole day. Shui Mi There is not even half of it, and now it is only a sale, which is already a light treatment of her."

The terrified lotus leaf was carried into the ear room by the women, only to find that three or four women maids had been tied up in the ear room, and they were the leaders who stole things and ran away.

Osmanthus leaves in the old lady's room, Mrs. Liao, lotus leaves and reed leaves in the master's room, Mrs. Tan in the second room, Xiangluan in the elder brother's room, sandalwood in the third girl's room, and the eldest maid pear in the fourth girl's room Pigeon and Hongtang from Fifth Girl's room were called in one by one, and after asking a few words, they were tied up by the people brought by Mrs. You, gagged and thrown into the ear room.

The orchid leaf in the old lady's room also stole something, which had already been tied up by Mrs. You's people.Fortunately, Hong Ye came to pass a message on behalf of the old lady, saying that Lan Ye had hesitated for a long time and was the last one to leave, so she was spared.

Now Lan Ye was kneeling on one side neatly, raised her hands, and let a woman hold a small bamboo stick and pump it into her palms, gritting her teeth and not daring to make a sound.

Kneeling beside her were a few maidservants who were not at fault, and all raised their hands, their palms flushed from the beating.

Fennel was the last maidservant to be passed in, and when she saw Lan Ye and the others being slapped on the palms, she was actually relieved.

But as soon as Mrs. You came out with someone, she stuffed her mouth with a cloth ball, tied her mouth with a cloth strip, tied it up and carried it into the second room, and saw the maid woman who was tied up all over the floor, and then Fenix ​​cried. stand up.

She is both afraid and regretful.

But after a while, when Mrs. You started to move people out with her, Fen Xiang was already desperate.

But at this moment, she heard the voice of the same roommate.

"Our girl said that Fennel fished her in the pond two years ago, and she lost half of her life. Today, I ask the lady of the Biao family to spare her once."

When the fennel was released, she looked up and saw the seven-year-old sixth girl sitting next to the third girl. She rushed over and kowtowed desperately on the ground.

"Go on your knees!" Yan Pozi pointed at her angrily.

In the outer gate of the second gate, Geng Liang led men to tie up five or six of those male servants who were eating inside and out, and Mrs. You's men brought several caravans and threw them on the caravans like sacks.

The Gu family sold more than a dozen slaves in one day, and the news quickly spread on the nearby streets.

"In short, you can say anything," Mrs. Yan was replying to the old lady, "but everyone said that our cousin's wife is cruel."

"I, I'm getting old, and I can't bear it anymore," the old lady glanced at Lan Ye who was serving beside her, "I still have to ask someone who is hard-hearted to take care of it, otherwise the house will be chaotic. Lan Ye, you Say it?"

Lan Ye held a cup of tea in her hand and nodded quickly.

If the old lady hadn't asked someone to spread the word yesterday, she would have been sold to nowhere.She heard from Hongye that the eldest lady of the Biao family had clearly told Mrs. You that none of the sold ones could stay in Jiangling.

The old lady grabbed Lan Ye's palm and felt depressed when she saw that it was full of scars.

"Go and take care of it, don't leave any scars, and come to the room to serve in a few days."

Zhang Zhe was wandering around the back garden of Gu's house with Meng Xiaowan, and came to Jiangling for a few days before he got a chance to take a good tour of Gu's house.

"Husband, Guanshi Luo on the farm was broken by your name Geng Liang. Mrs. You wanted to take you in but kept the family from selling it. This person has to be raised in her own house. The old lady and a few younger sisters It’s shocking to watch.”

Zhang Zhe took Meng Xiaowan's hand and helped her cross a small stone bridge, and then told her the reason.

"Guangshi Luo, I knew it was not a simple one. He managed the farm for 12 years, and finally the family copied the four strings. Do you believe it or not? Anyway, I don't believe it."

Meng Xiaowan also didn't understand: "Supposedly, his wife and daughter are all at home now, coaxing him to sell them, but he didn't let go. Could it be that he really used all the money?"

Zhang Zhe said coldly: "Tian Lin, the son of the old Tiantou, has taken over the errand of the Zhuangtou. I told him to check the past traces of Guanshi Luo. His wife and daughter don't care, so I can only explain one thing."

Meng Xiaowan took a few steps before she realized it.

"Husband means, he raised a concubine outside?"

"I'm afraid it's more than that. If he didn't have a son to hide in his hands, would he be so disregarded to raise his own daughter?"

Zhang Zhe was proud of what he said, but when he saw Meng Xiaowan gave him a strange look, he immediately became angry.

"What does that look mean, my lady?"

"Hehe, my concubine just glanced at my husband, why did my husband panic?"

Hearing the understatement, Zhang Zhe hugged Meng Xiaowan tightly, and put his head next to her ear.

"If we want a son, we need another two years. The lady turns twenty, and then... hey, lady, don't go!"

The two walked far away, and several girls from the Gu family sneaked out from a small road with their maidservants.

"Didn't my cousin see how many of us there are?" Mu Yi asked curiously.

"I just said don't hide it," Hanyi was about to cry anxiously, she was afraid that her cousin and sister-in-law would cause trouble afterwards.

"Who told them to be so indifferent to outsiders, how could we show up at that time?" Gu Qinyi's face was red and upset.

"Copy today's homework twice for me when I go back!" Gu Shuyi kept a straight face, completely ignoring the bitter expressions on the faces of the younger ones. I went to do my homework, just to have some private conversations with my cousin. We ran out early and saw things we shouldn't have seen, but we can only blame ourselves!"
