Nong Zhaohua

Chapter 167

Xie Guozhang was so angry that he was going crazy. He wanted to suppress Liu Shi. After glancing at Gong Shi, Xie Guozhang seemed to be doing it on purpose, and said loudly to everyone in the courtyard:

"From now on, Mrs. Liu is no longer a member of my Duke Dingguo's mansion. Aunt Gong has been raised as his wife, so she still hasn't come to see her."

With Xie Guozhang's order, Gong Shi and You Rongyan showed brilliance on their entire faces, holding their heads up and waiting for everyone to meet, but except for the few servants and guards brought by Xie Guozhang, all the people serving in Qingcang Courtyard, Not to mention kneeling, he didn't even move, the yard was extremely awkward, Yan Zhaohua and Xie Xinyuan had already helped Mrs. Gu go inside, so naturally he would not respond to Xie Guozhang's crazy behavior in the yard.

Nanny Gui walked out of the corridor and said to Xie Guozhang: "Qingcang Courtyard is my wife's dowry, dowry, since the Duke has given my wife a letter of divorce, then the people here will no longer have anything to do with the Duke's Mansion. If we want to please the new wife, we may not be able to help you." After saying this, without waiting for Xie Guozhang's response, Nanny Gui said to everyone in Qingcang Courtyard: "Everyone come in to help with inventory, the storeroom Take out all the things in the house, and when the accountant comes, we will start to check. After checking, we will all pack up our bags and leave with the lady. Don't occupy the place of the Duke's mansion, and turn around to block the eyes of the new lady. "

Nanny Gui sarcastically made Xie Guozhang gnash his teeth. Gong used to dislike Nanny Gui the most. She was obviously a slave, but she treated herself like an old lady. When seeing these concubines, her nostrils were all Looking up to the sky, Gong Shi did not dare to offend her in the past, but today it is different. Even her master Liu Shi is like a dog in the water, let alone these dog servants.

Stepping forward, he mocked in a strange way:

"Since Nanny Gui calls me the new wife, I want to make it clear that you don't take away the items in the accountant of the Duke's Mansion if you want to. Things from the Duke’s mansion? Don’t try to play tricks in front of me. The Duke and I will definitely not be deceived. If you take something you shouldn’t, I’m afraid you won’t even be able to get out of the Duke’s mansion. "

Nanny Gui did not show weakness, and snorted coldly: "Don't worry, the new madam, the Duke's Mansion is not a small family, every account has its source, and every item is recorded. If the new madam is not at ease, you can But send someone to watch, since our lady has promised not to take a needle, a thread, or a penny from the Duke's mansion, then I am not afraid of people's investigation, I am not afraid of people's inspection, I am afraid that the new wife's background is too low, lack of knowledge, and does not know how to manage accounts , I was deceived by the few words of the people below, and I dragged down the Duke later, so don't blame anyone."

The words satirized Gong's low background and lack of education, and taunted her for being incapable of being a housekeeper. Gong was so angry that she glanced at Xie Guozhang and saw that Xie Guozhang's face was not good. She put herself on Xie Guozhang and hugged him Arm, still coquettishly said in the way of the former aunt:

"Duke, if you look at her, she doesn't take you seriously."

Before Xie Guozhang opened his mouth, Nanny Gui said again: "What the new lady said, we all respect the Duke, but we are two families now, so we can't ask me to be like a slave, seeing you like this Madam who has not yet rectified her name, she has to kneel down to pay her respects, right? After the Duke goes to ask for your order and invites all the houses to congratulate you, if the servants meet you outside, they will definitely greet you, but now... After all The divorce letter can take effect at that time, but remarrying his wife is a big deal, and it can't be done with a single sentence."

Gong Ruquan held his breath in his heart, and yelled at Nanny Gui: "You barking old woman has already been kicked out of the house, and you dare to be so arrogant. Believe it or not, when you leave this house, I will be killed by you!" you!"

Dare to hit him, Gong Ruquan has already calculated in his heart, after the Liu family and the others leave the Duke's mansion, they must find some ruffians to clean up these old women who used to look down on him, and make them regret offending him. .

Xie Guozhang gave a cold look to the side, and Gong smacked him secretly, and shook his head warningly to Gong Ruquan, only then did Gong Ruquan touch his nose, and forcibly swallowed down his full stomach of nonsense.

Nanny Gui was amused by Gong Ruquan's threat. She had served Mrs. Liu for decades. Ever since Mrs. Liu married into Duke Dingguo's mansion, she had felt aggrieved for Mrs. Liu. It was only at this moment that Mrs. Gui really relaxed. Come down and say to Gong Ruquan:

"Okay, we old women will be waiting for your people to come when the time comes, our Hengyang Liu family is really not afraid!"

Xie Guozhang frowned when Nanny Gui mentioned Hengyang Liu's family, and remembered that he had divorced his wife. The Liu family knew about it, and there must be a storm. He was only the eldest son of Dingguo Duke's mansion at that time, and it took a lot of effort to marry the daughter of the Liu family, but after all these years, Xie Guozhang has long forgotten the hardships of the year and the help the Liu family gave him. .

He suddenly realized that the relationship between him and the Liu family was not the relationship between husband and wife in an ordinary family. The two of them lead two families, and the combination is a political marriage. If he unilaterally destroys it, it is equivalent to giving the Liu family crazy revenge The reason, although Xie Guozhang also knew that the Liu family's scholarly family would not really do anything, but this would definitely be a thorn, a thorn that would pierce into his heart at some point!

Mrs. Liu is the eldest daughter of the Liu family. She is well-educated and has a beautiful appearance. It is because of her strong personality that Xie Guozhang has loved her from the beginning, but now he hates her. He never thinks that he is useless, but only thinks that It was the Liu family who didn't give him face. In other respects, for so many years, the Liu family has managed Xie's family in an orderly manner and flourished day by day. Because of the reputation of the Liu family in Hengyang, Dingguo's mansion is also honored to have such a mistress. Xie Guozhang turned his head and glanced at Mrs. Gong. Can this woman who walked out of the teaching workshop really replace Mrs. Liu as Mrs. Ding Guogong?Can such a woman, such a background, really be brought out?
This idea just turned around in Xie Guozhang's mind for a moment, and was immediately diluted by anger. Gong's family background was not good, so she didn't dare to frown at her. Everything can be controlled by him, and he gave him She gave birth to four children, and Liu's only gave birth to two. In terms of affection, Gong's has more.

"You naughty slave, I really hate how I didn't clean up you back then!"

There are too many loyal servants around Mrs. Liu. If Mrs. Liu had fewer confidantes and a lower family background, she would not be so arrogant, and would not take herself seriously for the rest of her life.

Seeing that Xie Guozhang spoke for her, Mrs. Gong exchanged a smug look with Gong Ruquan, and Gong Ruquan did the same. Seeing Mr. Guo giving face like this, it seems that Mrs. Gong is right, she is already able to completely control Xie Guozhang. If so, what is Gong Ruquan afraid of?
Stepping forward, pointing at Nanny Gui, he shouted, "That's right, a bunch of slaves! They are not worthy to carry shoes for the Duke and my sister."

"He really is not afraid of death!"

Suddenly a cold and hard voice came from outside Qingcang courtyard. Xie Guozhang looked at the door and saw Yanxiu walking in with a group of people. Xie Guozhang naturally had a bad face. Any trouble between him and the Liu family is a matter of the Dingguo government. , but if Yan Xiu found out about this matter, then he would have no reason to redeem it, so he stepped forward and scolded Yan Xiu:

"What are you doing here? Can't you read a joke? Hurry up, you are not welcome here!"

For Xie Guozhang's scolding, Yan Xiu laughed it off, and said calmly, "Why is father-in-law doing this, why did my son-in-law provoke you?"

Nanny Gui on the corridor immediately said: "Your Majesty, don't call me wrong, the Duke has already given my wife a letter of divorce, and will write a letter tomorrow, intending to dismiss the position of the son, and install Gong, the son of the new wife. For the son, after such and such a thing happened, will Hou Ye still call the Duke and Father-in-Law?"

Yan Xiu didn't expect things to develop like this. He walked up to Nanny Gui and made eye contact for a moment. Nanny Gui gave Yan Xiu a look of "Be safe and don't be impatient". Yan Xiu reacted and turned to Xie Guozhang. said:

"Oh, if that's the case, then the Marquis will be disrespectful to the Duke."

The implication is that he doesn't want to have anything to do with Xie Guozhang. Between Xie Guozhang and Liu Shi, Yan Xiu decisively chose to side with Liu Shi. You have already made a decision and you don’t want to change it, then I will fulfill you. Pack up your things and get out of my Duke Ding’s mansion immediately.”

A cold light flashed in Yan Xiu's eyes. Hearing Yan Xiu's voice, Yan Zhaohua walked to the door to see how Yan Xiu would respond. In the room earlier, Mrs. Liu had personally assured her that nothing would happen, and told Yan Xiu that nothing would happen. Zhaohua, after a while, Yan Xiu will come over. Obviously, they have discussed some things, but they didn't tell Yan Zhaohua. Not long after Liu's voice fell, Yan Xiu really came over.

What is Yan Xiu here for?Yan Zhaohua set his sights on the few people who came in with Yan Xiu. There were two old farmers and old women dressed in ordinary clothes. There was nothing special about them. They looked a bit like herdsmen along the border, and the people next to them were Yan Xiu. Yan Zhaohua didn't understand what Yan Xiu was doing when he brought these two old farmers in.

I only heard Yan Xiu said: "Duke, don't be angry. I came here today. I didn't know that there was such a big change in the mansion. Now that I think about it, some things may be superfluous. I really don't know some things. What should I say?" It’s better not to say it, let’s say it, I’m afraid the Duke will accuse me of meddling in other people’s business, so don’t say it, I feel sorry for the Duke, it’s really a dilemma, I don’t know what to do.”

Xie Guozhang looked at Yan Xiu, and then at the two old farmers and women he had brought along. He didn't know what kind of medicine Yan Xiu was selling in his gourd, so he gritted his teeth and held back his breath and said, "What do you want to say, just say it." That is, what kind of mystery is being deliberately played?"

Yan Xiu was amused by Xie Guozhang's words of 'playing tricks', cupped his fists and said to Xie Guozhang: "Since the Duke said so, I will not hide it. I originally asked someone to investigate this matter by chance. At that time, I He is still the son-in-law of the Duke, and after finding out the problem, he didn't dare to be careless and continued to investigate, unexpectedly, he really let me track down some unknown truths."

As Yan Xiu said, he cast his eyes on Aunt Gong and Gong Ruquan behind Xie Guozhang...
