Houmen's step-wife

Chapter 387 That's Really Great (1)
In fact, Su Wan's heart is not soft, she just can't change her mind, after all, she grew up in that peaceful era, and she always valued human life.

However, when this kind of soft-heartedness becomes a threat to his own existence, it is really serious.

Su Wan's heart gradually hardened, and her eyes became firmer than usual.

In Mrs. Chu's mansion, in a row of group houses where servants lived on the east side, Mo Lan's family of four occupied three rooms.

Neither Molan's adoptive father nor adoptive mother has any special abilities. The adoptive father works as a porter, and the adoptive mother is a woman who patrols at night and usually does some rough work. Molan also has a younger sister who is eleven or twelve years old. The madam waits in front of her, only works as a sweeper outside, but she also takes the money of the third-class girl.

Because Mo Lan is a person that Mrs. Chu relies heavily on, the room they were assigned to the family is naturally more spacious than others.

What's more, Mo Lan usually lives in the back room behind the main courtyard. If she doesn't live here, the house will be more spacious.

However, Mo Lan came back here to recover from her injuries this time. Mrs. Chu must be worried that she is so close to her.

Mo Lan's adoptive mother, Mrs. Cao, walked to Mo Lan's room with a bowl of egg noodles.

Mo Lan was half lying on the narrow bed in the clinic with a bandage around her forehead, but her complexion was very good. Seeing Mrs. Cao, she immediately sat up and called mother with a smile.

Cao quickly said, "Lie down quickly and don't move around."

Mo Lan smiled and said, "Mother, it's okay, I know some medical skills myself, and I'll be fine in a few days. This injury just looks scary, and I'm sensible."

Mrs. Cao handed the egg noodles to Mo Lan, sat down on the round stool beside the bed, and said this time: "When you hit the wall that day, you almost didn't scare me to death. Can't do that anymore."

Mo Lan took a mouthful of noodles and said, "I'm going to die and live. My wife doubts me. I have no choice but to prove my innocence in this way, and I can once and for all. Look, am I okay now? "

"Madam is pregnant, if something bad happens, will you still be alive?" Cao Shi still complained.

When Mo Lan heard this, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, not just sarcasm, but also funny, and said: "This mother doesn't understand, I have served Madam for a few months, and I understand Madam's temperament, I can't be more kind to servants, and It's not just pretending for the sake of reputation, let alone disposing of servants at will. As long as Madam can't catch my evidence and can't be sure that I did it, she won't do anything to me. Moreover, if I do this, she will also make her I felt guilty, and doubted me even less. After a long time, she gradually trusted me, and maybe she would let me go back to serve. You see, didn't she just send someone to send me off two days ago? I came with 100 taels of silver, and the imperial doctor treated me, which servant would be offered such delicious food after almost hurting his master?"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Cao nodded and said, "That's the truth. Speaking of which, our wife is really a good person."

"He is indeed a good person." Mo Lan said with a smile, a good person is easy to handle, grasp her weakness, are you afraid that you can't control her?

What's more, the emperor dotes on Mrs. Chu so much. Since Mrs. Chu doesn't want to pursue it, even if His Majesty gets angry again, he can only follow her and won't attack her. That's why she dared to use this method.

Otherwise, even if she does not die, she must die afterwards.

"What a pity." Cao then sighed, if it wasn't for the fact that the White Lotus Sect was kind to their family, and they were all loyal believers, otherwise, she really didn't want to do this. Rare.

At this time, Mo Lan suddenly said: "Mother, your father should be quiet recently, and don't send any more news. Madam still doesn't believe me now, and I'm afraid she will send someone to monitor us. If the evidence is seized, we The whole family is doomed."

Cao said: "You have said it several times, we can save it."

Only then did Mo Lan feel relieved, just now she just felt a little startled, and then she warned her again, until she thought about the matter again and again, and found that there were no omissions, then she was relieved again, and slowly He breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Cao Shi: "Be careful, there is no big mistake."

Mrs. Cao sighed, and said, "Well, when will this kind of frightening day end?"

Mo Lan comforted her with a smile: "Don't worry, mother, as long as you endure this period of time, it will be fine. When Madam trusts me again, then I will ask Madam for a better job for Mother, and our good days will come." .”

Mrs. Cao also smiled gratifiedly, and then said: "It's good, it's just that Madam is so kind to us and has done so many good deeds. I always feel a little bit sorry for us doing this."

"Mother, you can't think like this." Mo Lan hurriedly persuaded, "We just passed on a little news, and we didn't really harm her, so what's there to feel sorry for?"

Mrs. Cao was about to nod, when suddenly, she heard loud footsteps outside, and then heard a loud bang on the door, and a group of guards rushed in forcefully.

Cao Shi and Mo Lan suddenly turned pale with shock.

And Mo Lan, who used to be the big girl next to Mrs. Chu's mansion, also went out with Mrs. Chu once, so she naturally recognized these guards of hers, and even said a few words to them, which can be regarded as a little friendship.

Therefore, Mo Lan quickly calmed down, and forced herself to say calmly: "Brother guards, what are you going to do? Is there any misunderstanding?"

The leading guard didn't even listen, and said coldly, "Catch it!"

Mo Lan panicked all of a sudden, and quickly shouted: "Why are you arresting me? I want to see my wife."

The leader of the guards said: "Don't worry, we will take you to see Madam right now. If you have anything to say, talk to Madam after seeing Madam! Take them away!"

Two guards stepped forward and dragged Mo Lan off the bed. The noodle bowl in Mo Lan's hand slammed and fell to the ground, causing the noodle soup to flow all over the floor.

Escorting the pale-faced mother and daughter, they walked towards the front hall.

At this time, on the platform under the front porch of the front hall door, there was a warm couch, and Su Wan was sitting on it.

Except for the servants on duty, all men and women, including the new servants, stood in the courtyard below, with a bit of anxiety and solemnity on their faces.

Although they didn't know what was going on, since Madam summoned these servants, they knew that it must be no small matter.

Hanyu, Camellia, Huangmei, Lvzhu, Baiju and others stood side by side behind Su Wan, and the chief eunuch Wang Bing stood beside Su Wan, occasionally bending down with a smile to ask Su Wan, Mama Qiu and Li Mammy stood by.

At this time, it was just the right time, the sun was just right, and there was no wind, which made people feel warm in the sun.
