"I dare not take what madam says seriously."
Gu Jiu said seriously.
Mrs. Xie smiled and said, "Child, you are too serious sometimes. You must be tired after a day's journey. You should go back and have a good rest to get well. You don't have to come to pay respects every day until you get well. I know how filial you are."
"Thank you for your understanding, madam. I'll take my leave now."
Gu Jiu raised the corner of her mouth slightly, turned around, and left the upper room with four maids.
Everyone else in the room breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Zhen and Gu Lin were thankful that this fight did not affect them.
Gu Yue and Gu Shan were thankful that their mother did not act on impulse and did not really paddle Gu Jiu. Thank God.
As soon as Gu Jiu left, Xie's smiling face instantly fell.
She said calmly, "I'm tired, everyone please leave."
Gu Zhen and Gu Lin felt as if they had been pardoned, and they hurriedly stood up and left.
Gu Yue and Gu Shan stayed behind, "Mother, are you okay?"
Xie gritted her teeth and snorted coldly: "Send someone to invite Doctor Xu."
Gu Yue and Gu Shan were both extremely worried, fearing that Xie would become ill because of Gu Jiu's anger.
Mrs. Xie waved her hands, "I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me. You two can stay here and talk to me."
"I listen to my mother."
Gu Yue and Gu Shan sat down again and talked with Xie.
Gu Jiu brought four maids back to Zhi Lan Courtyard.
After entering the study room on the east side, Qing Mei finally let out the anger that had been pent up in her heart.
She looked nervous and scared, "Servant was almost scared to death by miss. When you were in the room, you should at least be patient and let it go in one ear and out the other.
After all, she is madam, the mistress of the mansion. The young lady has said before that you should be patient when you need to be patient. The young lady was too impulsive today. "
Gu Jiu leaned back in her chair, "Am I impulsive today?"
Several maids nodded in unison.
Qing Zhu said, "It's nice to see Madam being humiliated. But servant worried that in the future, Madam will make things difficult for you. And your marriage will definitely involve Madam."
Gu Jiu laughed, "You are wrong. In today's situation, no matter what you say, I cannot tolerate it."
Qing Mei said, "Servant don't understand."
Gu Jiu said calmly: "This is a different time. In the past, Madam had the final say in the mansion and was respected by the master. At that time, I had to endure it.
Now that the mistress and the master have a rift, there is no need to be as patient as before."
"But, aren't you worried about the future? If you offend the madam, your life will definitely be difficult."
Gu Jiu raised her head and looked at the four maids. "I used to be patient and didn't dare to offend the Madam at all. Was madam easy at that time? Was your life easy? Did what I said at Zhi Lan Courtyard count?"
Hearing this, Qing Zhu and Xiao Cui nodded repeatedly.
Qing Zhu said, "What the young lady said makes sense. In the past, the young lady was patient everywhere, but her life didn't get any better. Instead, she was hindered everywhere and was almost killed by that slut Tao Hong. Now that the young lady doesn't give face to the mistress, no matter how bad her life is, it won't be worse than when Tao Hong was here."
Qing Mei said, "Miss, please be careful. If someone says you are unfilial, it will affect your reputation. The master might also have some opinions."
Gu Jiu smiled and nodded, "Qing Mei is right to remind me that I should be careful. In fact, it's okay to let Madam paddle me today, but I don't like it."
Qing Mei said immediately: "The young lady has just returned home and has not recovered yet, but the mistress is beating her with a stick. The master will definitely be furious."
Gu Jiu nodded, "Qing Mei is right. If I am beaten with a stick, madam will not have a good life.
From now on, the conflicts and misunderstandings between the mistress and the master will only get deeper and deeper."
"But the miss didn't beat with a stick." Qing Zhu said carefully: "The miss knew that if she beat with a stick, it would be the madam who would suffer in the end. But the miss tried hard to persuade the madam and made her change her mind. Could it be that the miss was afraid of being beaten with a stick?"
The corners of Gu Jiu's mouth twitched. She was so embarrassed to be hit on the bottoms.
Jiang Yan secretly looked at Qing Zhu. Sister Qing Zhu was so straightforward that she dared to say such words.
Qing Mei pulled Qing Zhu's sleeve and pouted, "You are such a fool. You dare to say anything. At least give the miss some face."
Qing Zhu realized later that She had been reckless and actually spoke out what was in her heart.
"Miss, servant didn't mean it. How about you punish me?"
Gu Jiu waved her hands and said with a smile: "You are right, I am really afraid of pain, so I absolutely will not accept being beaten with a stick."
You will never be beaten with a stick. You will never be beaten with a stick in your entire life.
It's true that Gu Jiu is afraid of pain.
In the previous life, people took medicine and got injections every day. Many people said that they were not afraid of the pain after getting used to it.
But how can she get used to this kind of thing?
No matter how many times, she was still afraid of the pain, extremely afraid.
She never dared to look at a needle.
Every time the nurse took out a needle, she would subconsciously turn her head away, not daring to even look at it.
Just one look at it and all the muscles in my body tense up and she can't relax at all.
Especially when the needle touched her skin, she felt so sad and wanted to die.
However, she was really afraid of death, even more than she was afraid of pain.
So she have been trying hard to receive treatment, and she have to endure it no matter how painful it is.
She eventually died of complications.
Fortunately, God gave her another life.
In this life, she was very lucky. She had no congenital heart disease or genetic disease, but she was born with a weak body and lacked postnatal care.
With the help of tonic medicine, she will soon have a healthy body.
The greatest luck is to have the healthy body that you dreamed of in your previous life.
Xie wanted to beat her with a stick, but she was dreaming.
In this life, she will not give anyone the chance to hit her.
She is most afraid of pain, being beaten with a stick hurts so much.
If anyone dares to hit her with a stick, she will definitely pay it back double.
Therefore, even though she knew that being beaten could bring her great benefits, Gu Jiu would still firmly refuse.
There are plenty of opportunities to find something to hold against Xie, so there is no need to rush.
"Gu Jiu, come out here."
"Who is shouting outside?" Gu Jiu was curious; the voice sounded unfamiliar.
"I will go and take a look."
Xiao Cui ran out in a hurry and ran back in a hurry.
"Miss, it's bad. The Eighth Young Master is here."
Eighth brother, Gu Gong?
What is Gu Gong doing here?
Gu Jiu was very curious, so she stood up and walked out of the study.
As soon as Gu Gong saw Gu Jiu, he jumped up.
"Gu Jiu, are you still human? You made my mother angry and caused her to lie in bed. You should apologize to her immediately, otherwise I will not forgive you."
Gu Jiu raised her eyebrows. Is Gu Gong mentally retarded?
"Eighth brother, what did you call me?"
Gu Gong looked fierce, "Gu Jiu, don't think I'm afraid of you just because your father is backing you up. If you don't kowtow to your mother and apologize, be careful or I'll beat you up."
After saying this, Gu Gong waved his fist to show off his strength.
Gu Jiu laughed. Gu Gong was indeed stupid.
"What are you laughing at? If you dare to laugh again, I will really hit you."
Gu Jiu smiled and said, "Then go ahead and fight me! I'm standing right here, do you dare to fight me?"
"Mother provided you with food and drink, and worked hard to raise you, but you didn't know how to be grateful, and instead made her angry. For someone as disloyal and unfilial as you, I will beat you."
Gu Gong looked righteous, waved his fist, and rushed towards Gu Jiu.
"ah..."
The maids screamed in shock; they never expected that Gu Gong would actually do it.
"Who dares to hit my sister?"
Bang!
Gu Ting swung his fist and Gu Gong was knocked flying, lying on the ground screaming.
Gu Ting raised his foot and stepped on Gu Gong, like an angry King Kong, his eyes as big as copper bells, extremely ferocious.
"If you dare to hit my sister, I will beat you to death!"
After saying that, he raised his fist and punched Gu Gong in the face.
Gu Gong was so frightened that he forgot to react. He just raised his hands to protect his face.
"Brother, wait a minute."
At the critical moment, Gu Jiu stopped Gu Ting.
Gu Ting raised his fist, somewhat dissatisfied, "Sister, don't bother with this matter. This kid deserves a beating, let me teach him a lesson."
Gu Jiu said, "Brother, listen to me. Even if you want to beat someone, you shouldn't do it in my yard. If you want to beat someone, take the person outside to beat him, so as not to dirty my yard."
Huh?
This reaction was different from what he had imagined.
Not only Gu Ting was dumbfounded, but Gu Gong was also dumbfounded.
Gu Gong thought that Gu Jiu called Gu Ting to stop him from hitting someone.
he didn't expect that she thought he had made Zhi Lan Courtyard dirty.
So ruthless, so indifferent, so realistic.
No love anymore!
he want to cry!
Gu Ting scratched his head, "Then, I'll take him out. Sister, are you okay? Are you scared by Lao Ba?"
Gu Jiu pursed her lips and smiled, "Thank you for your concern, brother. My eighth brother is just a child and can't scare me."
Being looked down upon!
Gu Gong was filled with grief and anger.
He glared at Gu Jiu and said, "I look so majestic and powerful, how could I not scare you?"
You're obviously scared to death, okay?
Gu Jiu smiled and said to Gu Gong: "You really don't look scary, just a little stupid."
Bang!
Gu Jiu defeated Gu Gong completely with just a few words.
