Chapter 162 Amnesia (2)
When Mrs. Qi returned to the mansion, she called Min and told her a few words: "If you can't decide, come to Gu's mansion to find me."
Min has helped her housekeeper in recent years, and she can handle trivial matters in daily life. But when encountering major events, it won’t work.
Min didn't want Mrs. Qi to live out and said, "Mom, let me invite my aunt to live in the mansion!"
Mrs. Qi shook her head and said, "Your aunt recognizes the bed. She can't sleep well when she lives in our mansion."
It is also for this reason that Old Mrs. Gu never lives in Qi's mansion when she comes to the mansion.
Seeing that Mrs. Qi had made up her mind, Min stopped stopping her: "Mom, I'll send you there!"
"No, you should work harder on the matters in the mansion. I will come back after your aunt's affairs are handled."
Mrs. Qi went to Gu's mansion with the things she needed every day.
When we arrived at the second gate, a guard stopped the group and said, "Madam, my old lady said to invite you to come in alone."
Han Shan couldn't help frowning when she heard this: "Why don't you let us go in?"
The old lady shook her head and said, "I don't know either. This is what the old lady ordered."
Mrs. Qi said to Han Xiang and Han Shan: "You are waiting for me here, and I will call you if you have any."
Han Shan felt it was inappropriate and stopped him: "Madam, how can this be done? If there is something wrong with me, how can we explain to the second master at that time?"
When Qingshu walked over, he happened to hear this: "Auntie, my grandmother is waiting for you in the house."
Mrs. Qi was afraid that Old Mrs. Gu would have something to do and hurried in.
Han Shan wanted to follow, but she was still stopped by the guards. She shouted to Qingshu: "Cousin, please let her let me go."
Qingshu looked up at Han Shan and asked expressionlessly: "What are you worried about? Worrying that my grandmother and I will harm my aunt?"
She felt that Han Shan didn't like her in Qi Mansion the day before yesterday, but she didn't take it seriously. She was not money, so she couldn't expect everyone to like her. However, since she knew that Han Shan didn't like her, she wouldn't give her a good face.
Han Shan stagnated: "I, I don't, I just worry that my wife would be unaccustomed to her without our care."
Qingshu was too lazy to pay attention to her and went straight into the house.
Looking at Qingshu's back, Han Shan said with some annoyance: "Hanxiang, what do you mean by saying this?"
Han Xiang disagreed with her words and deeds: "Madam, let us wait here, just wait. Han Shan, your behavior just now has surpassed it."
"Don't worry, let your wife enter the house alone?"
Han Xiang asked back, "What's wrong with being worried? Do you really think that the concubine will be bad for the wife? Han Shan, don't show it even if you don't like it. Otherwise, you will definitely regret it."
She didn't know why Han Shan didn't like her concubine and cousin, and she didn't want to know. As a maid, they had to respect the people they valued by their wife. Unfortunately, Han Shan was so worried that she even forgot about this basic thing.
When Mrs. Qi entered the main hall, she saw Mrs. Gu lying on the bed. She was anxious: "Sanniang, what's wrong with you?"
Old Mrs. Gu sat up and said, "Sister, I'm fine, but Xiaoxian is the one who has something to do."
Mrs. Qi's heart thumped, she held her hand and said, "Sanniang, you have to cheer up."
Old Mrs. Gu shook her head and said, "No. Sister, Xiaoxian didn't fall off the cliff, she was taken back by A Zhong, and she is sleeping in the next room."
Mrs. Qi was shocked.
Old Mrs. Gu said, "Sister, I only learned about this after I came back."
Since Qingshu had not told Mrs. Qi about this, she could not tell it out. Otherwise, Mrs. Qi would have felt that Qingshu was too conceited. It would be better to say that she was selfish, but she didn't want others to look at Qingshu with strange eyes.
Mrs. Qi came back to her senses and asked, "Since Xiaoxian is fine, why didn't A Zhong send a message to the mansion?"
There must be something strange about this.
Old Mrs. Gu said: "A Zhong said that the horse suddenly went crazy, it must be because someone fed something unclean."
After pausing, the old lady Gu smiled bitterly, "That day, the Lin family asked to come to Lingquan Temple to burn incense, and my eyelids kept twitching. At that time, she asked Gu Xian not to go, but she didn't listen. Unexpectedly, something really happened."
Mrs. Qi remembered what Mrs. Gu said in the morning and asked in confusion: "It's really Xiaoxian that the Lin family hurt? But why do they want to harm Xiaoxian?"
Even if Lin Chengyu passed the Jinshi exam, he would have no backing or money to pave the way, and he would probably be just a small official for the rest of his life. Therefore, killing Gu Xian would not have any benefits for the Lin family.
Old Mrs. Gu shook her head and said, "No. Sister, I suspect that those people are thieves."
Mrs. Qi's expression changed suddenly, and she said seriously: "Are you sure?"
Seeing that Old Mrs. Gu nodded, Mrs. Qi frowned and said, "But Gu Xian is already married. What can they get if they hurt Gu Xian? Besides, you don't have much money on hand, so it's useless for them to be so deliberate."
Old Mrs. Gu sighed and said, "There were rumors that my old man had saved up a mountain of gold and silver. Some people may believe that they really wanted this mountain of gold, so they deliberately harmed our mothers."
Mrs. Qi felt it was unreasonable: "Even if the person behind the scenes suspected that the Gu family had a gold medal, he shouldn't have taken the blame on Gu Xian."
If it was really for the Gu family's money, this man should have arrested Gu Xian and threatened Mrs. Gu to hand over the huge amount of property. But this man clearly wanted to kill Gu Xian, so Mrs. Gu's guess was a bit unreasonable.
Old Mrs. Gu said: "Sister, this person's real goal is me. Gu Xian's accident is just the beginning, and there will definitely be a later move."
Mrs. Qi looked at the old lady Gu in silence and said, "The revenge of killing a girl is irreconcilable. Even if the Gu family really has gold, you will not give it to him, unless this person already knows where the gold is hidden."
Old Mrs. Gu shook her head and said, "The old man is very cautious in doing things. I only know where the gold is hidden."
Mrs. Qi couldn't help but rub her eyebrows and said, "I didn't expect the rumors to be true. The Gu family has Jinshan."
Old Mrs. Gu did not hide it from Mrs. Qi, and said, "There is not a lot, only more than 30,000 taels of gold. You also know that my old man likes gold. After more than ten years of accumulation, it is a huge sum. You must know that these golds will cause trouble, so I have dealt with it long ago."
Mr. Gu suddenly fell ill and left the orphan and widowed mother. When Mrs. Qi got the news, she rushed to Taifeng County and lived in Gu's mansion. Every time Mrs. Gu encountered something difficult to solve, she would accompany her. No need to do whatever she said or did, just her appearance was a shock.
Mrs. Qi lived in the Gu family for three months, and she did not return to the mansion until Old Mrs. Gu stabilized the situation.
This kindness Mrs. Gu has always remembered in her heart, so she would go to Fucheng to live for a while every year on her birthday. She would go to Fucheng to visit Madam Qi on weekdays.
