Chapter 110 Take the initiative
Chapter 110 Take the initiative
The first time she saw Ye Qingluo, Old Madam Chu scolded him. She originally thought that Ye Qingluo was with her son last night.
Now it seems obvious that this is not the case.
"I am in the restaurant, and the Marquis is probably still in the Dali Temple."
"Dali Temple?"
When Old Madam Chu heard this, her face was filled with more worry than fear. Then, seeing Ye Qingluo's casual attitude, all her uneasiness turned into anger.
"Ye, if that's the case, why don't you go in and accompany him!"
"Are you happy to see Bei Yu in trouble?"
"You wicked woman!"
Madam Chu raised the cane in her hand and slammed it heavily on the ground, "Tell me the truth, did you do anything to Bei Yu?"
"If I had known you were like this, I would never have agreed to let Bei Yu marry you, even if I died!"
"Madam..." The maids and the housekeeper present were stunned by Madam Chu's words. Even if the madam did something wrong, what she did was certainly not malicious.
Seeing that the people around her still wanted to stop her, Old Madam Chu became even more angry and her momentum became more ferocious.
"What, what I said is wrong?"
"I've always felt that she is not a good person! She hasn't had a good day since she came into the mansion!"
Seeing that Old Madam Chu was still talking incessantly, Cuizhu clenched her fists. For the first time, she felt that the old lady in front of her was so hateful.
"Madam, that is the Dali Temple, not everyone can go there. Moreover, from what the Dali Temple Minister said at the time, the Marquis only went there to investigate the fact that you were kidnapped by robbers."
"Now everyone is saying that the robbery was done by the county lady."
Cuizhu said all these words in anger.
"Without your wife, you would probably..."
“What did you say, the robbery was done by Su Wan?”
Old Madam Chu was shocked, but because her rescue was indeed related to Ye Qingluo, her anger subsided a little.
But when he thought about the possibility that the matter was related to Su Wan, he immediately denied it.
"Impossible! The county lady is gentle and kind, she would never do such a thing, Ye! I think the maidservant beside you really needs discipline, she dares to say anything!"
While Old Madam Chu was saying a series of harsh words, Ye Qingluo noticed a figure behind a stone lion not far away.
I think it must be Chu Beiyu without a doubt.
So... a cold light flashed across Ye Qingluo's eyes. It was just right to let this bastard see how his mother behaves!
"Mother, whether the robbers are related to the county lady or not, I'm afraid we can only know after the Marquis comes back. As for what you just said." Ye Qingluo sighed, "Mother, I'm afraid you forgot that it wasn't me who begged me to marry into the family, but the Marquis..."
"enough!"
When Ye Qingluo was about to say the rest of his words, Chu Beiyu, who had been standing behind the stone lion, finally lost his patience and strode out.
Ye Qingluo sneered. This guy was like this. When Old Madam Chu scolded him, he watched the show silently, but once it touched him, he immediately lost his composure.
In the final analysis, it's just cheap!
When the butler saw the person who appeared, his face was filled with joy, and he also breathed a sigh of relief.
Given the current situation, he was really worried that his wife and the old lady would have a dispute.
By then, these servants will really not know what to do.
"My Lord, the old lady and the lady..."
The butler wanted to step forward to explain the situation, but Chu Beiyu just looked at him coldly, his eyes falling on Ye Qingluo.
"You all stand down."
Except for the maidservant beside Old Madam Chu, no one present dared to stay any longer after receiving the order.
"Bei Yu, you are finally back. What happened and why did you stay in Dali Temple for so long?"
Old Madam Chu grabbed Chu Beiyu's arm, her face full of worry.
"Mom, I'm fine."
Only when facing his mother did Chu Beiyu have a rare smile on his face, and then he looked coldly in the direction of Ye Qingluo.
"What are you standing there for! Come over here and apologize to your mother!"
Ye Qingluo had no intention of stepping forward, but just smiled meaningfully.
"My Lord, do you really think that what happened today was my fault?"
"Since you are back from the Dali Temple, why don't you explain to your mother the truth behind the robbers?"
Although Old Madam Chu appeared to not believe Ye Qingluo's words, she couldn't help but become suspicious when she saw that Ye Qingluo was so sure in front of her own son.
"Bei Yu, tell me, what exactly is going on with the robbers?"
"Could this matter really be related to the county lord?"
"Yes, my Lord, mother is very angry because of worrying about it. You must talk to her."
"Ye Qingluo!"
In front of Old Madam Chu, Chu Beiyu suppressed his anger and said in a low voice while looking at her, "Don't be so presumptuous!"
Ye Qingluo raised his eyebrows and said indifferently, "In that case, the Marquis must have a lot to say to mother, so I won't bother you."
"leaf……"
Watching Ye Qingluo leave like that, Chu Beiyu clenched his fists and tried to catch up but was stopped by Old Madam Chu.
"Bei Yu, you don't have to pay attention to her!"
"Tell me what's going on with the robbers?" Old Madam Chu was eager to know the truth.
……
On the way back to the courtyard, Cuizhu beside him said to Ye Qingluo, "Madam, do you think the Marquis will tell the old lady the truth?"
"will not."
Judging from Chu Beiyu's expression at the time, he should have known the whole story, but as long as they have interests, they would remain silent even if they knew that Su Wan had done something to hurt Old Madam Chu.
"But after this, what should we do if the county magistrate uses the same old tricks again?"
Cuizhu was surprised. She didn't expect that the Marquis had such different feelings towards the county lady. He even ignored the robbery matter that involved the old lady.
If this were her own wife... Cuizhu was even more worried about her wife's situation after Su Wan came into the family.
"There is no such thing as eternal love in this world. Often, the marriages between noble families are based more on interests."
"As long as you tear a small hole, you are not far from the essence."
She also wanted to know how far Chu Beiyu could go for Su Wan.
After returning to the yard, Ye Qingluo asked Cuizhu to leave first and went into the house alone.
She still had many doubts about the Gu, especially about her father's condition. She just hoped that everything would be fine.
The treatment during this period almost used up all the pills she made, and even if the herbs in the space were to grow, they would still need a cycle, so they still needed to be replenished as soon as possible.
She came near the spiritual field and looked at the large area of vine shadow fruit with her eyes narrowed slightly.
Since this thing can detoxify the toxicity of Ningxiang Powder, it will definitely arouse people's fear.
Instead of trying hard to find the clues behind it, it is better to let the suspicious person come to you on his own initiative.
Sitting back and waiting for death has never been her style!
