There are mountains, rivers, and wolf kings

Chapter 396

Some time ago, Li Haitang asked Qiuxia to establish a good relationship with the servants in the mansion, and she began to deliberately manage her social circle.

And Xiaocao was the closest person she found to Aunt Tao's side.

It didn't take long for her to know the basic situation of Xiaocao's family. Xiaocao's mother used to be Aunt Tao's maid. Five years ago, because of a serious illness, she was sent out of Gu's mansion and returned home to take care of her. Three years ago , because the family couldn't survive anymore, so Xiaocao was also sent to Gu's mansion to work beside Aunt Tao.

When Qiuxia entered Gu's residence, the first thing Li Haitang gave her was to find the old man in Wutongyuan, but after that she found nothing, which made people feel very surprised, and until Xiaocao's mother used to be Gu When she was an old man in the mansion, she kept a special eye in her heart.

Xiaocao's mother works in Juyuan, and she is extremely favored by Aunt Tao, and Xiaocao said that there was a reason for her mother to leave the house.

It seems that it was because her mother had a personal relationship with people in Wutong Garden, and Aunt Su of Wutong Garden did something that was sorry for Madam. After Madam found out about this, her mother was sent back to the countryside by Aunt Tao not long after, saying that she was seriously ill .

Since then, Qiuxia has been on good terms with Xiaocao, hoping to find an opportunity to find out the truth. If she can find clues about the old man in Wutongyuan, that would be a good thing. It has something to do with the young lady's private property, so she took over the matter.

Hearing Qiuxia finish these words, Li Haitang's eyes lit up.

Five years ago, it happened that Aunt Su passed away. Could this matter have something to do with Xiaocao's mother?
Perhaps, this is just a coincidence?But Xiaocao also said that at that time his mother pleaded for the people of Wutongyuan, so she was sent out of the mansion. At that time, the servants of Wutongyuan had been dismissed, so who could she have a personal relationship with?Could it be that Xiaocao's mother is on good terms with Aunt Su?

Knowing this, Li Haitang couldn't sit still anymore, and asked Qiuxia to go back to the nanny to take care of Ruirui, and then went to the study to find Gu Yongjia.

After telling this matter to Yongjia from the beginning to the end, Yongjia's face was also moved.

Could it be that there has been no progress, because a little maid will have a substantial breakthrough?
That night, both of them were a little uneasy.

Early the next morning, Li Haitang asked Qiuxia to take her post and went to the winery where Xiaohe worked. The matter was resolved so easily.

Seeing that the matter was settled in this way, Xiaocao was very happy, and pulled Qiuxia not to let her go, and insisted on inviting her to her house for dinner, but Qiuxia first declined, and then naturally followed her back home.

Xiaocao's mother, Honggu, cooked a large table of good dishes for Qiuxia at home. Seeing that Qiuxia treats people sincerely and has no airs at all, she helped them so much this time, and kept saying that Xiaocao must have Repay Qiuxia well, and repay the Second Young Mistress.

Aunt Hong has been a maid in the mansion for so many years, and she really doesn't believe that the second young lady will help Xiaocao for no reason.

But he also thought that he and Xiaocao had nothing worthy of other people's schemes, so he asked Xiaocao to invite Qiuxia back and let her take a good look at it. If she had something in mind, she would definitely say it.

After finishing the meal, Qiuxia got up and said she wanted to leave, after all, the young master was short of people, so she couldn't stay away for a long time.

Xiaocao wants to go with Qiuxia, but Honggu asks her to clean up the dishes first, because she has something to say to Qiuxia.

As soon as Xiaocao left, the smile on Honggu's face was not as strong as before, and there was still a bit of melancholy hidden between her brows.

Qiuxia also relaxed in her heart.

Dealing with sensible people is effortless, if you pay for her, she will repay you, unlike some people who accept other people's favors in a daze but don't know it, what's more, they will sell them for a price, Instead, bargain with you.

So in Qiuxia's heart, this Honggu is a good friend.

"It's no wonder that she was the celebrity around Aunt Tao back then, so I won't beat around the bush. I heard from Xiaocao that Honggu was angered and sent out of the mansion because of her friendship with people from Wutongyuan. I want to know why?" Who is the person and where is he now?"

Honggu was taken aback, she obviously didn't expect Qiuxia to ask such a question, she first sighed, and then said: "Young girl Xiaocao, I told you not to say anything casually, but she didn't listen, but this is also If it wasn't for that child's good fate, I'm afraid you wouldn't have interfered in this matter."

Qiuxia just smiled and didn't refute.

Honggu put away the smile on her face, and then said: "What is the second young master wanting to know? It has been so many years, some things would have never been heard, and I once promised Aunt Tao never to tell them, but this is also God's will. Aunt Tao will help you this time, Xiaocao will not ask you, and there will be nothing after that, let me tell you."

What Qiuxia asked was who she was friends with, but hearing her tone seemed to have something secret to say, her heart also began to become dignified, could it be that there is something important in it?But about the mystery of the master, not everyone can know it. When the Second Young Mistress explained to her, she was vague and did not explain clearly. In other words, the Second Young Mistress did not want others to know the secret behind this matter. , but now Honggu wants to speak out.

Seeing that Hong Gu opened her mouth and was about to speak out, Qiu Xia quickly said: "Hong Gu, this matter is too important, I think it's better for you to tell the young mistress personally, or you can go back with me?"

Aunt Hong was also a servant before, and she also had a delicate heart, so she naturally knew what she meant, so she smiled and didn't continue talking.

But she couldn't go to Gu's mansion.

"When I was able to leave Gu's residence alive, I had already promised that I would never set foot in Gu's residence again. Although I was willing to tell this matter, I couldn't go to Gu's residence."

Although Qiuxia was a little disappointed, it was reasonable to think about it. It is not easy to betray her promise, and it is even more torture to see the person she promised again.

"Then I'll go back and discuss it with the Second Young Mistress."

Aunt Hong nodded.

Back in Wutong Garden, Qiuxia reported the matter to Li Haitang. Hearing that, Li Haitang knew that Honggu must know something crucial, so she immediately found Gu Yongjia, and the two went to Xiaocao's house that day.

Hong Gu was a little surprised to see the two people coming so quickly, but then she was relieved.

He knelt down on the ground immediately, knocked his head first, and then said: "Second Young Master, Second Young Mistress."

Gu Yongjia quickly got her up.

But Honggu's eyes were a little red.
