Chapter 264 House fight?

The boy who was waiting in the study came in to polish ink, and Pu Xiang stood up, took some white paper and started writing a letter. Gu Shiyi lightly jumped onto the beam, lay on it and looked down, only to see Pu Yanlan and him. What Dad wrote was a letter home, and the recipient was none other than Pu Yanlan. The content was that his mother was seriously ill and he hoped she would come back home.

"Eh... didn't I write one before? Why do I have to write again? Do you think she hasn't come back and are writing to urge her?"

That’s not right either!

Judging from the tone of this letter, there is no mention of the previous letter at all!

Could it be that... the previous letter was not written by Pu Yanlan's biological father?

Is this... interesting?

Gu Shiyi touched his chin and watched Pu Xiang finish writing the letter one stroke at a time. After putting it aside to dry, he picked it up and walked to the backyard. Gu Shiyi followed him and watched him arrive at the backyard. When I entered the room, a mother-in-law came out and said,

"master!"

Pu Xiang nodded, hesitated for a moment, and then walked in with the letter. A middle-aged woman who still retained her charm came out with two children.
"master!"

"grandfather!"

Two children came forward to salute. Pu met the three of them with a smile on his face. After entering and sitting down, he said a few words to the children and sent them out. The middle-aged woman took one look and let them go. The letter on the table beside me asked,
"Master, this letter..."

Pu Xiang sighed and said,
"She doesn't have a few days left. If she doesn't ask Yanlan to come back, I'm afraid she won't be able to see her for the last time!"

The middle-aged woman frowned and asked,

"Master, my sister has been refusing to tell me where the thing is hidden. If I call the eldest lady back, I'm afraid this thing..."

Pu Xiangdao,
"Isn't this really helpless? She has exhausted all her resources. If she is forced to question her, her character will be lost if she is not careful. And if Yanlan knows about it, she is afraid that she will come back to cause trouble in the future..."

The middle-aged woman said,
"But...but what if the eldest lady comes back and my sister talks nonsense to the eldest lady?"

"Humph!"

Pu Xiang's eyes flashed coldly and said,

"Don't worry, she doesn't dare. Although she has no worries, she still has a lot of children and grandchildren in her family. What's more, my eldest brother-in-law and second brother-in-law are still alive. She doesn't think about herself, but also thinks about them. think!"

The middle-aged woman still said uneasy,

"Master, can't you think of any more ideas?"

Pu Xiangdao,
"In the past few years, we have thought of many ways, and she has made up her mind that she would rather destroy that thing than give it to us... I have changed all the people around her, searched everything that should be searched, and searched everything that should be investigated. I checked them all, but found nothing..."

After a pause, he said again,
"The doctor said she still has a few days to live. Taking advantage of her confusion in these few days, I used this letter to coax her and told her that as long as she handed over the things, I would send a letter to her to see Yanlan. I couldn't explain it. ...She will agree for the sake of her daughter!”

The middle-aged woman said worriedly,
"But Master, the eldest lady has entered the Immortal Sect. She is a fairy-like figure. If she comes back to see the madam, there is no way to rescue the madam... that thing... that thing will fall into the eldest lady's hands." In my hands!”

Pu Xiang hummed,

"Don't worry, although that thing is very important to us mortals, it is not of much use to Yanlan. Her master sent someone over to send a congratulatory gift, saying that he had received the news. She is now in the foundation building stage. In heaven One is a hot top figure!"

The master in Pu Xiang's mouth is naturally not Liu Wenwen or Elder He, but Zhang Zhenyue, Zhang Guoshi, whom Pu Yanlan followed when he was in the secular world. This Taoist master can be considered to be somewhat capable. Over the years, Not only was he physically strong, he also won the favor of two emperors, who treated him with great courtesy and always enjoyed the treatment of a national master!
However, Zhang Guoshi's life has become a little difficult these days. The new emperor, who just came to power, doesn't like the Taoist sect. He feels that they are not engaged in production and waste people's money and money, so they don't have a good look towards Zhang Guoshi!
Zhang Guoshi is not afraid. He has a disciple in Tianyimen, Pu Yanlan, as his backer. Although Pu Yanlan has never returned to the secular world since leaving Beijing, there is still a lot of news coming back from Tianyimen. It is said that when one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven, Pu Yanlan is unparalleled in the sky, and Zhang Guoshi and the Pu family have also benefited from it. At least when the new emperor takes action against the old ministers, he must also consider Pu Yanlan behind the Pu family. After all This young lady from the Pu family has only been away for a few decades. Her parents are still alive at home, and her relationship with her is still intact. She may miss her relatives one day. When she returns home, she discovers that the emperor has treated her family badly and wants to punish them. You know, the new emperor's grandfather was killed by his own family!
People outside don’t know about this, but the direct lineage of the emperor’s family is clear!

It is precisely because of this scruple that although Pu Yanlan's father has long since abandoned his wife, he still has to provide for his daughter well and does not dare to neglect her in the slightest!

Gu Shiyi looked at the two people in the hall, an old man with a stooped face, the folds on his face could trap mosquitoes, and an old and young couple with fair and smooth skin and plump figures, and he almost made a guess in his mind.

"From this point of view, it seems that the couple's son died, and their daughter entered the immortal sect again. They had no children, and Mrs. Pu could not have a child, so the old man took a concubine into the sect to give birth to a son. As a result, she gave birth to a son. When she was still alive, she liked the new and disliked the old, which was not good for the first wife. And Mrs. Pu probably got something good and hid it herself and refused to give it to the old man, which made the couple who had been together for many years become enemies! "

As for what it is, you can only ask Mrs. Pu!
As soon as Gu Shi thought of this, he quietly stepped back and went back to the side courtyard without anyone noticing. It was quiet in the side courtyard. In the inner room, beside the sleeping Mrs. Pu, there was a woman, Pu. Yanlan was sitting by the bed, guarding Mrs. Pu. Gu Shiyi came back and winked at Pu Yanlan.
"Yan'er, do you want to listen to the house fight going on in your backyard?"

Pu Yanlan had already vaguely noticed something fishy when she saw Mrs. Pu living in the side courtyard. When she heard this, she rolled her eyes.
"Why...is there a woman living in the main house?"

Gu Shiyi smiled and told what he had overheard.
"Tell me...what is it that our mother is hiding that makes your father-in-law worry about her so much?"

Pu Yanlan frowned, thought for a moment, turned her palm and took out a jade bottle, poured out a vermilion elixir,

"This qi-boosting pill is what we take for fun on weekdays. It just replenishes qi and blood. Now, this pill is the only one that can be used on my mother's body and bones..."

The elixirs she refined are all taken by cultivators. Mortals have different physical constitutions and cannot withstand the effects of the medicines, so only those that replenish qi and blood can be taken!

Immediately, he waved his sleeves and a breeze blew by. The old woman who was guarding the bed tilted her head and fell asleep beside the bed. Pu Yanlan and Gu Shiyi appeared. Pu Yanlan went over and pulled Pu Yanlan over. The lady pinched her cheeks, applied a slight force, and opened her mouth before popping the elixir into her mouth.

The elixir melted in the mouth, and not long after, Mrs. Pu woke up from her sleep. She slowly opened her eyes, and when she saw Pu Yanlan, her eyes immediately showed disbelief.
"You...you are...you..."

She had been ill in bed for a long time and rarely spoke. When she was excited, she couldn't even speak. She just widened her already protruding eyes and tightly grasped Pu Yanlan's jade-white right hand with her protruding veins.

"You...you...you...Lan...Lan'er...you...you are finally...finally...back..."

Speaking of this, she couldn't take a breath and almost rolled her eyes. Pu Yanlan hurriedly touched her chest to help her take this breath. Mrs. Pu's chest rose and fell violently, and it took a long time to calm down. tone, but during this period he did not let go of his daughter's hand for a moment.

"Yanlan... Yanlan..."

When Mrs. Pu opened her eyes again, she pulled Pu Yanlan and cried loudly.
"My son! You are back!"

Mrs. Pu has suffered a lot of grievances in the past few decades, and she relies on her daughter to support herself. Now she knows that her time is running out, and she is afraid that she will not be able to see her daughter back for the last time, and that she will not be able to express her feelings. The pain, now that my wish has finally come true, I can’t stop crying!

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."

After Mrs. Pu took the elixir, she felt very energetic now, and she cried quite loudly. Gu Shiyi was afraid that the noise would be too loud and would disturb the outside world, so he used a sound-proof spell and reached out to carry it. The old lady's collar lifted her outside and made her lie on the table. The old lady didn't notice anything and was fast asleep!
In the inner room, Mrs. Pu cried for almost half a cup of tea before Pu Yanlan stopped her and said,

"Mother, you are weak, please stop your sorrow. What do you have to say to your daughter? My daughter is listening!"

This sentence reminded Mrs. Pu. She shed her tears and said with hatred,
"Son, you must avenge your mother!"

At that moment, he pulled Pu Yanlan to tell her story again. The matter was probably similar to what Gu Shiyi had guessed, but coming from the person involved, Mrs. Pu, it was a bit more infuriating.
"...When that woman first came here, she was honest and obedient. She never dared to show her face in front of the master. He only went to her room every ten days and never stayed for long. Later, when she gave birth to a son, the fox tail was exposed. ...I often used my son's name to let him go to her room, but he got out of hand. Later, he actually took advantage of my illness to take away the power of running the house. Your heartless father All the old people around me have been driven away and replaced by his people..."

Mrs. Pu said this for half an hour, venting out all the grievances she had suffered over the years, and finally took Pu Yanlan's hand and said bitterly,

"Son, your brother was ill-fated and died a long time ago. You are the only one I can count on. Now I don't have a few days to live as a mother. You must not let me die with hatred!"

Pu Yanlan frowned slightly,
"Mother, you are my father's wife. No matter how much he loves his concubine, he should not treat you like this!"
