MTL - Court Marriage-Chapter 25 Fight the tigress again
As Gong Zhuoliang's current status as the prefect's eldest daughter-in-law, going back to her mother's house to congratulate Mrs. Gong on her birthday will undoubtedly give the Gong family a great deal of face, especially in her congratulations, there is a congratulatory message written by Qiao Yingze, a grandfather, from the perspective of a son-in-law. In the eyes of the Gong family, spiritual food is naturally more elegant than gold and silver, which makes Mrs. Gong feel that her style has been upgraded by one level, but in Gong Zhuoliang's view, the value of the golden Buddha and the jade Buddha is worth the two words written by her little Xianggong. This deal is also a good deal.
Mrs. Gong released the news early, so that some people who were unwilling to make friends with merchants like the Gong family found more or less reasons to congratulate them. Of course, some people still disdain to come. Even so, Mrs. Gong had the grandest and most honorable birthday in her life, and she took the opportunity to negotiate a big deal with the Qiao family's relationship, so even the concubine whom she hated the most in private, she became very warm and intimate. , looking at him is like looking at a person who is piled up with gold, jade, and precious stones.
"I took this opportunity to come back this time. Besides wanting to meet my mother in person, I have one more important thing to tell you."
Gong Zhuoliang, however, didn't even bother to give Mrs. Gong a perfunctory, so he screened his servants and sat down on the main seat, and said straight to the point.
"What's the matter?"
Putting her hot face against someone's cold ass, Mrs. Gong lowered her face in dissatisfaction, but she didn't show any more anger at Gong Zhuoliang's arrogance except for slander.
If you lower your posture, you can exchange for great benefits. The lady of the account is very good, how can there be any reason to push money out?
"A while ago, a woman in charge beside my mother-in-law took a good look at Ruo Lan and wanted her to be the main house for her son, so he asked my mother-in-law. You also know that my mother-in-law doesn't like me, so I can't refuse this, but if Lan’s deed of prostitution is still with you, and when you were asked about it, it was very safe not to be suspected. Later, I used my husband to go to the hot spring Zhuangzi to recuperate, but I had to give someone an explanation when I went back for the New Year…”
Gong Zhuoliang poured out a bitter meal angrily, as if he was really frightened, and watched Mrs. Gong's reaction secretly.
"And Ruo Zi is also a worry, my husband doesn't like her character, and wants to let her go to match someone, I know you don't worry without her, and it took a lot of effort to keep her, but this person can stay. Once you can't keep it for the second time, so you have to give me her contract, so I can deal with it later."
"This... Ruo Zi didn't mention it at all."
Mrs. Gong was not stupid. When she heard that Gong Zhuoliang mentioned the marriage contract between the two girls, she immediately became alert, but she still had a shy smile on her face.
"She? Besides fighting with the big maid and bullying the little maid, what else does she know about the business? She dared to seduce the uncle and master on the second day of the wedding. None of the maids in my yard looked down on her. What a shame for me!"
Gong Zhuoliang sneered disdainfully, looking at Madam Gong with contempt in her eyes, as if to say that this is the good girl you taught.
"How can a husband's family bypass the new daughter-in-law and assign her maiden's dowry girl at will? You don't have to nod your head, you just stop it."
Mrs. Gong was blocked again, and the good mood of the scenery just now disappeared, and her tone became unkind.
"Can I not nod? Ruo Zi has been talking to you for a few days now. You won't know how I lived in Qiao's house! Do I dare to say nothing to my mother-in-law?"
Gong Zhuoliang sneered angrily, and he really treated Mrs. Gong as a trash can. He couldn't tell Xiao Xianggong or complain to Ruo Lan when he was suffocated at Qiao's house. All vent on the tigress.
"This... Now that Ruolan's matter has been settled, I can naturally give you her contract of prostitution, but Ruozi is still useful, and if you can't keep it, you will bring two more from your mother's house on the grounds that you have no considerate maids."
As for Gong Zhuoliang's situation, Mrs. Gong has no doubts. Ruo Zi made the Qiao family's rules too much. She only saw Gong Zhuoliang's angry side. As for Gong Zhuoliang's interaction with Qiao Yingze, the door was closed tightly. It was known to everyone that Ruo Zi had suffered setbacks in front of Qiao Yingze, and for her own sake, she naturally called him a big-tempered official young master, so Mrs. Gong also took it for granted that Gong Zhuoliang was unhappy in front of him.
"What is it like? It's not clear that I'm angry at my husband's house, and I have to send the girl to use it... Ruolan, I can't keep it, and Ruozi is useful, but letting it go is a curse. Why did you choose such a careless one, let's find someone more reliable and prepare it, if it really doesn't work, send it in."
If one Ruo Zi wants to get rid of it, he has so many worries, not to mention changing two more. Gong Zhuoliang snorted impatiently, and tugged at Mrs. Gong, mainly to imply her not to think that Ruo Zi was useful, but also to prevent her from biting the master.
"I see."
Mrs. Gong shyly replied, and she had nothing else to say with Gong Zhuoliang, so she got up and went to get Ruo Lan's deed of prostitution to Gong Zhuoliang. She also planned to go out to drink and listen to dramas for her birthday. Zhuo Liang wanted to see her biological mother's request, so she also sent someone to look for Aunt Wu to see her.
"Madam, please save Ruolan, Madam. Madam Qiao wants to marry Ruolan to a fool, madam, please save Ruolan."
As soon as Ruo Lan, who was at the door, heard the sound of the door opening, she hurriedly dipped the corner of her eyes with the chili water in her sleeves, and then sobbed and knelt down in front of Mrs. Gong.
"Is there such a thing? Ruo Lan, you have arrived at Qiao's house now, and the lady can't help you even if she wants to help you, but you have been with the lady for so many years, and the lady can't bear you... You take this, and you can do it yourself in the future. "
Mrs. Gong looked down at the girl who had served her for many years, and her suspicions towards Gong Zhuoliang were much lessened. She looked at her left hand and then her right hand, and finally picked out the thinnest gold bracelet and took a pair for her. After leaving her, he took his servants and left without looking back.
"…lady!"
Ruo Lan called out a few times behind Mrs. Gong, but she didn't see her looking back. Although Ruo Lan knew her cruelty and coldness for a long time, she felt it personally today, but she was still completely cold in her heart. Holding the bracelet in his hand, he smiled mockingly, straightened his back and turned into the room.
"Ruo Lan, your matter is settled, how was your acting outside just now?"
Gong Zhuoliang was waiting in the room, when Ruo Lan came in, he hurriedly handed her the water-soaked handkerchief to wipe her eyes.
"Well, the madam has already believed it eight points, but the slaves will not perform this show, and the madam has already given you the deed of prostitution."
Ruo Lan stopped her tears and threw the thin bracelet given by Madam Gong on the table in disgust.
"If you give it, you will give it. I'm afraid that she will send someone to investigate the news if she is suspicious and unwilling. If she is distracted, she will be less dangerous."
Gong Zhuoliang picked up the pair of bracelets, looked at them, and put them back into Ruo Lan's hands.
"Tears are in vain, this thing is also worth a little money, how good it is to keep it as a private room."
"I think my wife won't take it to heart, what about Ruozi?"
If Lan heard what Gong Zhuoliang said, she put away the pair of bracelets, thinking that she would keep the pair of bracelets as a proof, and she would have nothing to do with the Gong family in the future.
"If Zi's tigress didn't give it to me, it seems that I can only make the scene behind it a bit bigger, and she will jump out and end it by herself."
Gong Zhuoliang sat leisurely in the chair with Erlang's legs crossed, and his expression was a little impatient. He wanted to get Ruo Zi's prostitution contract, so he used her father's excuse to get rid of it. He could still get a good name this time. If the tigress does not let go, he will have to make the trick bigger and force the tigress to finish.
As for her plan to add minions to her side, it was purely a dream!
"...Miss is still kind-hearted, otherwise, why bother to make a girl disappear?"
Ruo Lan showed a smile after being silent for a while, and looked at Gong Zhuoliang's face tenderly and admiringly.
No matter how hateful Mrs. Gong is, or how hated Ruo Zi is, the young master didn't really use any vicious means, he was just trying to save himself as much as possible.
"You can't just take someone's life casually."
Gong Zhuoliang is also a little embarrassed to be praised by this little girl. How can he be a modern person with a higher education, how can he despise human life like the privileged class in feudal ancient times, and kill him if he doesn't like it? .
However, Gong Zhuoliang was not as noble as Ruo Lan thought, he just didn't want to be a villain himself, what he did was to keep the troubles away, and in the future, Gong Zhuoliang would simply ignore them if they were alive or dead.
Having said that, the maid who gave Gong Zhuoliang the deed of betrayal came to knock on the door. Ruolan couldn't help but squeeze the paper after taking the paper, but then he calmed down and handed it to Gong Zhuoliang, while Gong Zhuoliang After the maid left, she smiled lightly, and burned the deed to ashes in front of Ruo Lan.
"Miss!"
Although she had hoped that Gong Zhuoliang would do this, but seeing her freedom with her own eyes, she couldn't help kneeling down to Gong Zhuoliang excitedly.
"Sister Ruolan, you have been working hard for you all the time."
Gong Zhuoliang helped Ruo Lan with a smile, comforted her a few words gently, and asked Aunt Wu to come out and wait on the grounds that she was coming soon. Watching Ruo Lan go out, Gong Zhuoliang slowly cooled his expression.
In fact, he had already released news at Qiao's house. At first, he just vaguely said that there was a woman who wanted Ruo Lan to be her daughter-in-law, but the mouths of the eight women who passed by the inner house naturally changed, so Gong Zhuoliang was not afraid of Mrs. Gong's inquiries. .
Besides, Mrs. Gong misunderstood the servants of the Qiao family and asked him to marry him and cause all these troubles. Naturally, she will not believe it anymore... Gong Zhuoliang asked Ruo Lan to play this role, mainly because she felt that Ruo Lan had a good heart and always Remembering how good Mrs. Gong was to her, she wanted to completely cut off Ruo Lan's feelings for Mrs. Gong.
As for the subsequent burning of the deed of prostitution, it was Gong Zhuoliang's sincerity. He was indeed grateful to Ruo Lan for his care and maintenance over the years. Moreover, loyalty cannot be obtained with a single contract.
"It's better to stay with Xiao Xianggong. You don't have to think about these nonsense things."
Gong Zhuoliang stood on the table and looked up at the sky bored. Rather than fighting with these women, he preferred to speculate on Qiao Yingze's thoughts.
Gong Zhuoliang was thinking about Qiao Yingze's recovery, should he take him to soak in the hot spring at night, and then kiss or something when there was a knock on the door, Gong Zhuoliang hurriedly stood up and sorted out his clothes. She opened her mouth and said please come in, and saw Aunt Wu stumbled and trotted in with the help of a little girl, but she hesitated when she stood a dozen paces in front of Gong Zhuoliang, looking at Gong Zhuoliang with a sad look in her eyes Sadness is complicated.
"mother."
Gong Zhuoliang looked at the little girl and remembered that she was an orphan adopted by his Aunt Wu. She was a maid in name, but she had never signed a contract of selling her body. Listening to Aunt Wu's words, she is also one of the insiders of this incident.
Gong Zhuoliang still had some closeness in his heart for the biological mother of this body. Seeing that she was a little ashamed and did not dare to approach, Gong Zhuoliang took the initiative to walk over and hug her, thinking that he would not know how long it would take to see her again. , giving her some good memories can be considered comfort.
"Good son... good son... my son..."
Aunt Wu, who fell into her son's arms, wept softly with joy and sorrow, and slowly hugged Gong Zhuoliang, but she still remembered to wipe her tears with a handkerchief and did not wet Gong Zhuoliang's clothes.
"Mother, my son is very good. Really, my son is doing well now. Look, my son has grown taller."
Aunt Wu's embrace was very warm, and her thoughtfulness and meticulousness also made Gong Zhuoliang feel at ease, so she patted her back and coaxed a few times, until Aunt Wu cried enough to hold back her tears, and then helped her to sit on the couch together. After chatting a few words about his current life, of course, he didn't tell the truth, but it was better than the version given to Mrs. Gong.
"Yeah, my good son will be thirteen after Chinese New Year...and the age to change his voice."
Aunt Wu took Gong Zhuoliang's hand and looked at it carefully. Seeing that he had indeed grown fat and looked good, she finally smiled at ease, but then reminded him again.
"Voice Changer?"
The word change of voice floated in his ears, Gong Zhuoliang was stunned when he reacted, and then he realized that he had completely forgotten about it. He remembered that in his last life, he was also in the period of voice change that started when he was thirteen years old. Two months is almost like a drake's voice, and he is upset when he hears it!
The voices of the little girls are sharp and thin, and this one just pretends not to be like it!
Imagine yourself wearing women's clothes and then opening your mouth to make the voice of a big man... Gong Zhuoliang is terrified, how are you going to live these days?
