Catching an adulterer at the beginning, the mistress of the Marquisate went crazy
Chapter 117: Mom is dead, Dad is gone
"Zhao Da, the old lady wants to see you..."
When Zhao Da heard what Luo's mother said, his legs went weak.
"Brothers, I haven't worked in the mansion for several years. Why did the old lady suddenly come to me?"
"We don't know that either. Let's go..."
After saying that, Mother Luo waved her hand and asked the four servants behind her to take Zhao Da to the Marquis' Mansion.
His home was gone, as were his wife and children. Although Zhao Da had no idea what had happened in the Marquis' Mansion, he knew that he was doomed this time.
Seeing the four strong servants getting closer and closer to him, Zhao Da turned and ran towards the ruins of his house.
This scene happened so suddenly that by the time everyone reacted, he had already passed through the house and ran away through another path.
"Chase……"
When they saw Zhao Da running away, everyone chased after him, but they didn't see the two thin figures at the corner of the street not far away.
"Sister, Mom is dead and Dad is gone, what should we do..."
Yan'er didn't know exactly what had happened at home, but she knew that if they stayed any longer they would die, so she held her brother's hand tightly.
"Let's go, let's leave the capital now..."
"Ok!"
The brother and sister took advantage of the moment when everyone was chasing Zhao Da and ran quickly into the distance.
Although Liu Tianshu wanted to replace Mother Zhao with one of her own, she never intended to kill anyone.
When she learned of Mother Zhao's death, she heard that Hou had directly ordered people to beat Zhao Dashi to death.
Zhao Da brought great harm to this family and he really deserved to die. The only regret is that Zhao's mother and her two children are gone.
But no matter how much we sigh, they are still Hou’s people.
After Hou came to her and told her the news of Mother Zhao's death, Liu Tianshu no longer asked Hou to pay for the tea. Instead, she directly handed over the management of the tea in the Hou Mansion to Nanny Yue, and gave her five hundred taels of silver to buy tea.
According to the current price of tea, five hundred taels of silver cannot completely solve the tea problem in the Marquis' Mansion, but Nanny Yue believes that tea in the capital cannot always be so expensive.
She took five hundred taels of silver and left the mansion, and bought two kilograms of high-quality tea for the master of the mansion. The servants and concubines in the mansion did not have any of it.
They say that everyone is overcoming difficulties together and getting through the hard times together, but in reality, five hundred taels of silver can only buy so much, and if you divide it among the courtyards, each courtyard will only have a little over one tael.
Liu Tianshu didn't mind this little bit of tea, so after getting her share of the profits, she gave it to Nanny Yue.
Nowadays, one ounce of tea is worth one ounce of gold. When Nanny Yue received the tea from Liu Tianshu, she was almost moved to tears.
As for Liu Tianshu, because the medium-grade tea did not taste good and she did not want to give it to others, she gave it to Nanny Yue as a favor.
In comparison, Liu Tian'ai had spent several hundred taels of silver just on buying tea these days. Although she was not short of money, she did not want to spend extra money for no reason.
After hearing that the tea had been purchased in the Taoist Mansion but there was no share for them, the concubines, they were very angry.
Every failure makes one wiser. After suffering two losses due to not understanding the rules, Liu Tian'ai learned a lot about the rules of being a concubine these days. Only then did she realize that what she had done before was indeed excessive and she deserved to be punished.
As she learned more and more rules, she realized the gap between her and Liu Tianshu more and more, and she became angrier and angrier. She would throw those books out many times every day, and in the end she had to patiently pick them up and study them seriously.
At the same time, she also deeply realized the fact that although she and Liu Tianshu married the same man, because of the difference in their status, even in death, Liu Tianshu would always be superior to her in this life.
At the same time, she also realized that if she wanted to live a good life in the Marquis' Mansion in this life, the only person she could rely on was this bastard Gu Jinyun.
When I thought about that bastard being with other women, I was furious, but there was nothing I could do.
Thinking that he was still under house arrest and couldn't even leave the courtyard, he gnashed his teeth in hatred towards Liu Tianshu.
"Minglu, come in."
"Aunt, what do you want?"
Minglu walked in from outside with a gold bracelet on her wrist.
These days, she made a lot of money by buying tea for Liu Tian'ai. The gold bracelet on her wrist was bought by her recently when she had the money.
Liu Tian'ai had no intention of looking at Minglu carefully at the moment, and naturally did not notice the gold bracelet on her wrist.
Of course, Minglu is the only person she can use now, so even if she knows, she can only bear it.
"Minglu, my illness is getting worse. Go to Fuguangyuan and tell the Marquis that he has passed by..."
"Auntie, I am of low status, how could the Marquis follow me here?"
"I don't care what method you use, as long as you can invite the Marquis here, I will reward you with twenty taels of silver."
She did make some money running errands for Liu Tian'ai these days, but that money was all embezzled by her secretly, so she never felt at ease spending it.
Twenty taels of silver was not a lot, but it was enough for her monthly salary for almost a year.
Hearing Liu Tian'er's words, Minglu swallowed excitedly, but when she thought of Mingcui who had just run into Fuguangyuan, she backed out.
"Auntie, my ability is limited and I cannot complete the task you have assigned me..."
"Forty taels."
Before Minglu could finish her words, Liu Tian'ai interrupted her.
After just a few excuses, her anger doubled. Minglu's eyes became brighter. But when she thought about what she was going to do, she...
"Sixty taels..."
Just as Minglu was hesitating, Liu Tian'er spoke again.
"Okay, I'll find a solution right away."
After Minglu finished speaking, she even forgot to show her courtesy and turned around and ran out the door.
Looking at Minglu's leaving back, Liu Tian'ai raised a sneer at the corner of her lips.
How dare a little girl bully her master? Let's see if she will let her go after she regains favor.
Ever since Mingcui came to Fuguangyuan, Gu Jinyun has been following her around all day, and even Taoer and the other two have fallen out of favor.
In front of Gu Jinyun, Tao'er and the other two didn't dare to show any sign, but they resorted to many tricks behind her back. It became common practice for them to put laxatives or other uncomfortable drugs in Mingcui's food or medicine.
This Ming Cui was like an indestructible cockroach. She took the medicine as usual and didn't skip meals. However, every time the effect of the medicine took effect, she pretended to be pitiful and looked at Gu Jinyun pitifully with her charming eyes.
From the moment they met, Ming Cui gave people a weak and pitiful impression, especially when she was poisoned or unwell, she looked pitiful and waited for Gu Jinyun to save her life, which made him want to protect her. Not only did he ask the court physician to live in Fuguangyuan, he also invited several highly skilled doctors from outside to treat her.
When Minglu arrived outside the gate of Fuguangyuan, she saw three doctors coming out carrying medicine boxes.
Except for Gu Jinyun, everyone else in Fuguang Courtyard is a servant. It goes without saying that the only person who could invite three doctors to come for a consultation at the same time is Gu Jinyun.
Thinking that Gu Jinyun might be ill, Minglu didn't bother to ask for help and went straight back to Liuyuan...
