Tianyuan Fenghuajing

Chapter 117 Reversing Black and White

The witch padded the silver in her hand, although she was a little dissatisfied, she still went.

She had heard long ago that the daughter of the Chen family went to be a concubine at the richest man's house in the town.The servants in Gu's mansion have a lot of money every month, let alone being half the master's concubine.She originally thought that Yuan Shi would be able to come up with a lot of silver taels, but she didn't expect that Yuan Shi's face would be pained for just this little money.Although she was dissatisfied, she also knew that her price was much higher than before, so she reluctantly went to Chen's house.

But at this moment, seeing the witch pretending to be a ghost, she felt somewhat regretful.

Thinking of such a mysterious thing, she still didn't know how much of what the witch said was true or not, so at this moment, she felt that all the money she gave seemed to be in vain.

Thinking of this, she complained about Yanwu's illness, and not only used up all the private money she had saved before, but also sold some of the antiques hidden at home.

Desperate for a moment, she thought: If it's Yan Wu, it's not good, or else just give her up.

At this time, the Chen family was struggling on the verge of collapse, and Mrs. Gu's side was gradually running out.

At the beginning, Mrs. Gu also had brown rice and wild vegetable roots to eat.

But in recent days, they can only drink some rice soup.There were not many rice grains in the rice soup porridge.She ate without taste, and felt that if the days went on like this, she would have to go to the street to beg for food, so she thought of committing suicide again.

This time she used a more conservative method, asking people for the rat poison, and wanted to swallow it in muddy water.But the effect of the medicine came on very slowly, and she only felt uncomfortable all over, and her eyes turned black.

Ruyi realized what was wrong with her, and hurriedly asked the doctor to take a look.

And the doctor knew at a glance that Mrs. Gu had swallowed the rat poison privately, but he didn't know whether it was intentional or not.

He told Ruyi about Mrs. Gu's poisoning.

Ruyi scoured the consultation fee, bought some medicine, and served Mrs. Gu to drink it.

She took care of Madam these few days, and felt that she had done her best, not to mention that she was a free person who had been taking care of Madam Gu and would never leave her. She was saved, and this life-saving grace can be regarded as repaying the respect and training that the Gu family had given her before.

The thought of leaving already came into her mind.

But Mrs. Gu didn't know what she wanted.

She found that she could still wake up, opened her eyes and saw the familiar scene of destruction, and couldn't help but count on Ruyi again.

Afterwards, she thought that she was in such a state now because of that vicious Mu Yun.If she had died directly under that cliff from the very beginning, then Gu Lingbo would not be dazzled by her beauty, and eventually compensated himself for it, and he would not fall to the bottom of the cliff because of the decline of the Gu family. where it is today.

What's more, when she went out a few days ago, she saw Mu Yun standing at the door of the shop and messing with the guys.

That complacent look made people feel that Gu Linbo's affairs did not affect her, but made her business more prosperous.

As long as she thought of this, Mrs. Gu felt even more angry.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and she said to Ruyi:

"We have come to this point today because of that little bitch Mu Yun. You can find someone to teach Mu Yun to tie her up. I will take care of her myself."

However, Ruyi knew that it was not all because of Mu Yun that the Gu family ended up in such a state.

Mr. Gu has never followed the honesty and sincerity of his fathers' business philosophy, and instead practiced crooked ways, which doomed Gu's family to not go far.The decline of the Gu family is a foregone conclusion, but Mu Yun has brought this time forward.

And she also obviously saved Mrs. Gu twice, but Mrs. Gu still treats her around like a maid.Her original gratitude to Mrs. Gu was slowly worn away because of these few days.

At this moment, she had made up her mind to leave Mrs. Gu immediately.

She agreed to Madam Gu's request, deciding in her heart that this was the last thing she would do for Madam Gu.

With the little silver she had, she bought off the rogue beggars in the town, and she asked them to tie Mu Yun and send her to Gu's residence.After giving this order, she left the town to start a new life elsewhere.

Mrs. Gu didn't know these things.

Those rogue beggars took the money but didn't do anything seriously. They tied Mu Yun upright, and they didn't care about the eyes of others.

The patrolling yamen immediately took them into custody and told Ji Ge about the matter.

After some investigation, Ji Ge knew that it was Madam Gu's order, so he went to the mansion and arrested Madam Gu.

Mrs. Gu originally dreamed of cleaning up Mu Yun, but she didn't expect to be arrested by Ji Ge, she panicked and wanted to explain.

However, there were all the evidence, no matter how much she argued, it was useless.

Ji Ge took her into the government office and asked sharply:
"You are looking for someone today to arrest Boss Lin of Lin Ji and take him to Gu's residence, is there such a thing?"

Mrs. Gu shook her head quickly and said:

"I've never done anything like this."

Ji Ge gathered all the beggars and hooligans and questioned them. Those people clearly told them what Ruyi told them, and mentioned Mrs. Gu's orders many times.

Mrs. Gu's face was pale at this time, she did not expect that Ruyi, who has always been able to help her quickly, would leave so many clues today that she could only plead guilty.she
At this moment, not only resent Mu Yun Ji Ge, but also hate Ru Yi to the bone.

Ji Ge didn't want to listen to her sophistry any more, so he ordered someone to pin her down and beat her twenty times.

When Mrs. Gu was thrown out of the gate of the government office, she was already unconscious.

Before she fell into a coma, she thought: If there is a chance in the future, she must take care of Ji Ge and Mu Yun, and let them taste the taste of life.

Anjia Village, Chen Family.

Ever since the witch went to Yanwu's room to perform rituals, Yanwu can sleep peacefully at night.

She couldn't help marveling at the witch's skills.

This morning.

Before she woke up, she heard a sound of gongs and drums outside the house.

Frowning, she didn't want to open her eyes, and secretly waited for the group of people to leave before going back to sleep.

But that group of people seemed to have their heels stuck in the door of Chen's house, and they kept making noise in her ears.

Yanwu was furious.

She turned over, put on a casual dress and went out the door, wanting to see who was looking for her bad luck, but she saw Ji Ge, a talented scholar whom she hadn't seen for a long time.

But he said that brother Ji, a scholar, has not troubled Yanwu for so long, not because he changed his mind and became a good gentleman.But after he was rejected by Yan Wu, and when he learned that Yan Wu had gone to Gu's family to be a concubine, he felt ashamed, and even more disregarded his own identity, and started stealing.

On weekdays, I am busy avoiding my enemies.

What's more, he knew that the new county magistrate in the town was the champion of the dynasty who had collided with him.

He didn't even want to go out, didn't want to meet familiar people, and was afraid of being ridiculed by them.

He thought that he was going to degenerate like this, that he would never see the light of day again, like hiding in the gutter forever as a mouse.He thought life was hopeless at first, but he heard soon after that the county magistrate Ji Ge had arrested Mr. Gu, the Gu mansion was ruined, and Yan Wu became a widow.

He was so happy that he wished he could blow gongs and drums and drink a lot to express his joy.

So he invited a team of trumpets and suonas who were in charge of funerals, and asked them to play in front of Chen's house early in the morning.He himself also wrote a manuscript based on his previous scholar literature, and read it aloud in front of Gu's mansion.

The general idea of ​​that manuscript is that Yan Wu dislikes the poor and loves the rich only because of her beauty, she has been entangled with many people before, and she was once pregnant, etc., and Yan Wu is described as a loafer.

After Yanwu opened the door, seeing the scholar Ji Ge, and hearing his manuscript full of sarcasm, she wished to tear the scholar Ji Ge to pieces.

The scholar Ji Ge saw Yan Wu coming out, and said:
"It's been 30 years in Hedong, and 30 years in Hexi. Before you were still your fourth-bedroom aunt in Gu's mansion, now you are back home as a little widow; I was poor before, worse than a sour scholar, but now I live in poverty. I am very comfortable, have money, and have a lot of time. Sure enough, good people will be rewarded, and evil people will be punished."

Hearing what he said, Yan Wu didn't blush because of his words, she just felt a little bit interested in what he said "rich and comfortable".

She thought, could it be that some of the talented scholars encountered some adventures and now they have made a fortune, so they can be so reckless and arrogant?

When Yan Wu was thinking this way, Yuan Shi came out of the room.

She heard Ji Ge's manuscript just now, and heard Ji Ge's ridicule towards Yan Wu, and she was very upset.

She went out and said to Ji Ge:
"Why are you like a fly, biting into the cracks when you smell them? You are not welcome in our Chen family, so go away!"

After Yuan Shi finished speaking angrily, she wanted to push Xiucai Ji Ge.

At this moment, Yan Wu stopped Yuan Shi's hand, pulled the scholar Ji Ge's sleeve, and pulled him into the room.

And the team playing gongs and drums also stopped when they saw that the Lord had gone, and dispersed separately.

Seeing that Yanwu invited him in, Ji Ge was puzzled, but he still wanted to see what she was going to do.

Yan Wu first poured Ji Ge a cup of tea, and then asked Yuan Shi to cook.

Although Yuan Shi was puzzled by Yanwu's attitude towards Ji Ge, she also knew that Yanwu had her own ideas, so she ignored them and went to the kitchen to make breakfast.

Here, Yan Wu sat next to Ji Ge, straightened her messy hair, and said with a bit of regret:

"I thought you would be a smart person, but I didn't expect you to be tricked into thinking that I did those things."

As Yan Wu spoke, tears rolled down her face.

Ji Ge hasn't seen Yan Wu for a long time, seeing her playfully and sadly at this moment, his heart is a little moved, and he can't help asking:
"Who am I tricked by?"

Yan Wu looked at him softly, and said:

"It was actually Mu Yun who gave me the idea that I marry into the Gu family. She said that the village can no longer accommodate me, and there are things like that before, so she gave me an idea, saying that it is the best plan to go to the Gu family in the town. I thought she went to the Gu family with good intentions, but I didn't expect that she had already discussed with Ji Ge that she would deal with the Gu family, and pushed me to do it because she wanted me to become a widow. Only now do I understand the cause and effect of the matter. Mu Yun is a terrible person."

When scholar Ji Ge heard Yan Wu's words, he was skeptical.

He knew the relationship between Ji Ge and Mu Yun, the county magistrate, so he believed the second half of what Yan Wu said, but he didn't believe the first half.

Based on the relationship between Yan Wu and Mu Yun, how could Yan Wu obey Mu Yun's arrangement and really marry into the Gu family?He prefers to believe that Yanwu is willing to be a concubine because of the wealth of the Gu family.

Obviously Yanwu also knew that Ji Ge didn't believe him, so he said:

"I swear to God, when my mother went to Mu Yun's house that day and wanted them to help me, Mu Yun directly said that I should go to the Gu family to be a concubine! If you don't believe me, you can ask my mother, ask her these words, Mu Yun Did Yun say it? It’s the same if you ask Mu Yun, she really said it.” Yan Wu said half-truthfully, “There is one more thing that can prove…”
