Marquis Gu furrowed his brows, saying, "Don't talk nonsense. How can Mada poison you?"
Not to ntion Marquis Gu, even Old Mada Gu, Gu Chengfeng and Gu Chenglin didn’t believe it either.
The three of them didn’t like Yao shi, yes. However, it was one thing to hate her, it was another thing to believe that Yao shi had the courage to do such a thing.
If Yao shi really had such ans, how could she have been forced out of the estate by them?
Gu Chenglin, sitting in a wheelchair, ca to see her. He had the servants withdraw from the room and asked in a low voice, "Aunt, did you just employ the self-injury ruse?"
Concubine Ling felt wronged,"I didn't!"
Old Mada Gu also ca to question her, "What on earth are you thinking? How could you do such a foolish thing? It’s just her staying in the estate for a little longer, is it not? And even if you want to drive her away, think of a clever way!"
"Aunt!" Concubine Ling felt wronged to death, even using aunt to refer to Old Mada Gu.
She acknowledged that she had been harming Yao shi, but it really wasn't her this ti!
"She really did poison , aunt!"
Old Mada Gu stared at her and said sarcastically, "Is that so? Did she harm you by using arsenic mixed with flour?"
The physician had ntioned that arsenic of that degree couldn’t kill people as long as it was treated in ti.
“I’m very well aware of your little thoughts. You don't have to lie in front of ! You think I’m a fool? You think I can't see through it?" Old Mada Gu was enraged. She wasn’t angry that Concubine Ling did sothing stupid, but angry that Concubine Ling kept refusing to admit to her actions in front of her, which was simply taking her as a fool!
Old Mada Gu originally intended to make decisions for Concubine Ling, but now she had changed her mind!
"Reflect on yourself!" Old Mada Gu said, flicking her sleeves and leaving!
"Aunt, even I can see the flaw in this thod. If you want to deal with that woman in the future, you'd better not use such tricks." Gu Chenglin said awkwardly and also went back to his courtyard.
Concubine Ling felt like breaking down. It was true she had been dealing with that woman for more than ten years, but not this ti!
Though no one suspected her when she hard others, the whole estate didn’t believe her either when she did nothing!
Concubine Ling's head ached with irritation!
Gu Changqing stayed in the military camp for several days and finally returned to the Marquis Estate at night looking tired.
As soon as he entered the gate of the estate, his personal servant boy told Gu Changqing about Concubine Ling's poisoning, "...I really couldn’t tell. In order to fra Mada, Concubine Ling was so cruel even to herself, drinking poison on her own without hesitation. Isn't she afraid of poisoning herself to death?"
Gu Changqing mused and said nothing.
The servant boy continued to chatter, roughly expressing his disbelief on Concubine Ling actually harboring such a vicious heart and laying her hands on the Mada.
To be honest, Concubine Ling was also seen as a good-natured person in the estate. She had been managing the household for many years and rarely got angry with the servants. It was just that in the eyes of the servants, Yao shi’s image was still more harmless than that of Concubine Ling.
"What is Concubine Ling’s condition now?" Gu Changqing asked.
The servant boy noticed how the shizi called her Concubine Ling this ti rather than aunt. It made people feel that his feelings for Concubine Ling had changed.
The servant boy didn't dare to inquire about his young master's thoughts, and only answered truthfully, "The estate physician said that the poison was mixed with flour, and it won't kill anyone. Concubine is fine and just needs to be nursed for a period of ti."
Gu Changqing replied with a straight face, "In that case, just let her take care of herself completely. Don't bother Concubine Ling with the household managent anymore."
The servant boy was confused. What exactly did this an?
Gu Changqing went to the Pine Crane Courtyard and temporarily rescinded Concubine Ling's right to manage the household affairs on the grounds of recuperation and minor punishnt.
In the first place, allowing a concubine to be in charge of the household affairs was an unreasonable arrangent. It was only because Concubine Ling had a strong backer and Yao shi wasn’t in the estate that she managed to thread her way through and stay at the top for ten years.
Old Mada Gu was still upset by how Concubine Ling lied to her and took her as a fool. Having the intention of suppressing Concubine Ling, Old Mada Gu agreed with Gu Changqing’s idea.
Just like that, after being poisoned and wronged by the whole estate, Concubine Ling lost the right to manage the household.
……
After the opening of the dical hall, it snowed for three days in succession. A lot of streets in the capital were covered with ice, making it difficult for carriages and pedestrians alike to maneuver their way.
Little Jing Kong fell on his stomach as soon as he ca out of the house.
Alas, this ti couldn’t be blad on him, the ground was really too slippery!
He tried getting up a few tis but to no avail, so he simply gave up and just lay on the ground, his small tongue slightly sticking out.
He moved his tongue and felt sothing was wrong.
Ey?
His tongue was stuck!
Gu Jiao ca out of the kitchen and, through the main hall, saw a cute little figure lying on the ground of the front yard.
Gu Jiao, with an odd look on her face, walked over and said, "The ground is cold, get up."
Little Jing Kong: Er, I can't get up.
Gu Jiao crouched down and saw that the little guy's tongue was stuck on the ice on the ground.
Gu Jiao: What kind of playing did you do that you managed to get yourself like this?
Little Jing Kong felt very embarrassed. This embarrassing appearance was actually seen by JiaoJiao. It seriously damaged his heroic and handso image!
He tried to pull out his tongue.
Gu Jiao said, "Don't move."
Pulling it hard like that would hurt his tongue. Gu Jiao went to the kitchen to get warm water.
Before the warm water could arrive, Xiao Liulang ca out of the study.
As soon as he saw the little guy on the ground, he crouched down with a smile yet not a smile and watched the little guy's embarrassing appearance.
Little Jing Kong was freaking out.
Ahhh! Ahhh! Ahhh! Bad brother-in-law, don't look!
Soon, Gu Yan and Gu Xiaoshun also ca out.
The two people also ca over together to watch.
Gu Yan laughed his ass off!
Gu Xiaoshun usually didn’t laugh hard unless he really couldn’t hold it back.
For example, right now.
Little Jing Kong flew into a rage.
Bad guys, bad guys, these adults are all bad guys!
After what Little Jing Kong felt like a century, Gu Jiao finally arrived with warm water to save his tongue.
His tongue had gone numb and he couldn’t feel it.
Gu Jiao picked the little guy up.
He felt ashad and resentful, and also felt humiliated. He covered his face with his little hands and plunged into Gu Jiao's arms, leaving only the back of his head facing several other people!
Little Jing Kong ate his al alone, not joining this group of bad adults who treat him as an object to laugh at!
This was the first ti that the little guy had lost his temper.
And although this was a bit heartless to say, the little guy’s awkward appearance really looked so adorable.
"It's ti to go to school." Suppressing a smile, Xiao Liulang ca to call him.
Little Jing Kong pulled the quilt upwards and tucked his little head into it, saying, "I'm not going to school with you! I want to go to school with JiaoJiao!"
