famous concubine

Chapter 549
"Master, wasn't he in the mansion at the time?" The girl gritted her teeth secretly, feeling that what happened next must be very cruel to the auntie.

"Master?" The auntie curled her lips, showing a sneer, and said, "It is true that he is not in the mansion; when I gave birth, the old lady and the madam stayed by my side. Pity my two children, I just want to After giving birth, I took a quick look at them..."

When the auntie said this, her usually indifferent face suddenly became distorted in pain, and tears welled up in her eyes without warning.

"When I woke up again, they told me that because the babies were born prematurely and their bodies were much weaker than normal babies, they couldn't wait for me to take another look, then...suddenly...disappeared!"

When Dongfangyu heard the words, her eyebrows twitched wildly. She couldn't help but lower her face and said, "You believed what they said? Didn't you confirm it with your own eyes afterwards?"

"Why didn't I!"

"But do you think I still have a chance to see them?" Auntie smiled coldly, with hatred in her sad smile.

Even when Dongfang Yu suddenly saw such an expression on her gentle and indifferent face, his heart shivered slightly.

"I only saw them once... Later, the old lady told me that the master didn't know that I had given birth; she said that in order to prevent the master from being affected in the frontier, she begged me not to tell the truth to the master; Be careful to drop it..."

Dongfangyu frowned when he heard it, and there was a trace of disbelief in his bright eyes, "And you actually obeyed at that time?"

The aunt smiled wryly, and the looming misery was suddenly mixed with boundless hatred, "Yes, I actually believed what they said when I was sad; I also nodded and agreed to this matter, and later, when I got out of grief When I came out and suspected this, the people around me, including the midwife who gave birth to me, had gradually disappeared one by one without knowing it."

"Then they know that you suspect this, so they don't worry that you will suddenly reveal this to the master?"

The aunt sneered coldly, and said: "Why aren't you afraid? Of course they are afraid; so they did everything possible to prevent me from seeing the master, and they tried their best to make up all kinds of reasons to make the master no longer trust me."

"Then why did they allow you to live safely until now?" Dongfang Yu smiled coolly, and after saying this, she suddenly felt something was wrong, and then said calmly: "Well, please don't be offended, Auntie, I'm just telling the truth Just telling the truth."

"I understand what Second Miss means." The aunt's expression was not displeased, and the vague sternness on her face gradually faded, "It's not that they didn't dare to kill me, but they didn't want to; Always hold something that makes them covet."

Dongfangyu heard the words, turned his eyes, and fell silent for a moment.

It's no wonder that my aunt has been living a secluded life these years; maybe her state can relax the old lady and his wife's guard against her, and because of her forbearance for more than ten years, she relied on the unknown thing in her hand Only the amulet of things can live safely until now.

The auntie looked at the girl who was pondering, and suddenly said: "Second miss, I think you should also understand why I agreed to you and am willing to stand up and be the head of this mansion."

Dongfang Yu nodded slightly with a smile, and said: "Well, I know, my aunt saw that I had almost cleaned up my wife; she felt that she could cooperate with me, and she didn't have to bear it any longer, so she stood up."

The aunt raised her eyebrows, looked at the stunning girl indifferently, smiled lightly, but said nothing, her silence was like admitting generously that she was the oriole that just watched from the sidelines.

If Dongfang Yu was not a capable collaborator, she would never stand up and expose herself to a powerful opponent.

The auntie took a deep breath, then suddenly changed the subject, and said, "I will help you in Puji Temple, just because Yanzhi's round face reminds me of my daughter whom I only met once... ..."

"Auntie, no matter what, in a sense, the old lady is our common enemy; we should trust each other." Dongfang Yu suppressed his smile, opened his bright and clear eyes, and stared straight at Auntie , looking very serious.

The aunt nodded and said: "The second young lady should trust me now, and will try her best to return those things that belong to you to you, right?"

Dongfang Yu smiled very leisurely, "Well, then let's figure it out, how to pluck the hair from that iron rooster."

"Well, if you don't pluck her naked, you should at least pluck her half naked." The girl blinked mischievously, her voice was very sweet, but her tone made people feel creepy for no reason.

Three days later, Cijing Hall.

"My concubine has met the old lady." The aunt bowed slightly, and saluted respectfully to the old lady with a gloomy and cold face.

The old lady's eyelids were half lifted, and the cold light came like a ray of ice. She said calmly and without emotion: "Auntie, I heard that you came to see me for something?"

"Yes, old madam." The aunt's face was calm and calm. As a junior, she qualified to give the old lady in front of her the respect she deserved; and as the head of the house, she had a dignified and generous demeanor. She raised her head slightly, Walking closer, he handed a bronzing post in his hand to Mother Gui who was standing behind the old lady, and then said seriously: "This is a post sent by someone from the palace, saying that the imperial concubine is going to hold a ceremony for the ladies of all officials in the palace. Treasure Appreciation Conference."

The auntie paused for a while, seeing that the old lady had opened the gold-plated post, looked carefully, and then said slowly: "The concubine is invited by the post, just choose a decent treasure and send it to the palace. .”

"If my wife was still in charge of the house, I know that she will not be embarrassed by such a trivial matter." The auntie showed shame on her face, and her tone was helpless and frustrated.

She lowered her head slightly, sighed faintly, and said: "But now... the concubine has taken over the position of the head of the family in just half a month; most of the property in the mansion has been counted; since I received this post, I have I have been thinking hard, thinking about what kind of treasures to send into the palace, so as not to appear disrespectful, and not to show off."

"But I thought about it and found that there are no suitable treasures in the storeroom in the mansion; in fact, there are no suitable treasures..." The aunt suddenly raised her head, stared straight at the old lady, and said with a wry smile: "Forget it, In front of you, old lady, I should just tell the truth."

"Actually, the warehouse in the mansion doesn't even have any decent treasures; that's why I'm in trouble."

The old lady opened her eyelids coolly, looked at the auntie coolly again, then opened her mouth, and said in a tone that was neither yin nor yang, "No? If not, you should go to Madam's Quanfu Look for it in the courtyard; this kind of matter is related to the reputation of the Dongfang Mansion; it should be you, the head of the family, who should do your best to protect it. It's useless if you come to me, and I can't conjure a decent treasure."
