Chapter 144 Error
As the days passed, Liu Suyu's son grew up day by day.
Today is the day when wealthy families pay their servants.
Liu Suyu took the money with mixed feelings.
She also knew that her original choice was the right one. If she continued to stay as a concubine, she might not even have the chance to see her son.
So being a servant is quite free, at least I can see my son.
She wanted to use the salary to buy a gift for her son, as a token of love from her as a biological mother to her son.
So she sneaked out when no one was paying attention and found a store.
She took a fancy to a small silver locket, which was very exquisite and would be suitable for her son.
However, when he asked about the price, he was a little overwhelmed. The little eagle was very exquisite, but also very expensive. His one month's salary was not enough. It would take at least half a year's salary.
However, when she was a concubine, she had some jewelry that could be used to offset the price, which should be enough to pay for this small silver lock.
So she just asked her boss to give it a few days, and then she went to raise money, and when she had raised the money she would come out to buy it.
So he left the store, hurried back to Fuli, and took out a small box from his room. There were a few jewelry in the small box, which she had saved when she was a concubine, and she would not let others find it.
But two days later something happened that caught her off guard and she didn't know what she had done wrong.
It was a sunny day. She had just finished washing clothes and was about to hang them out to dry when a little maid who was on good terms with her said that the mistress wanted to see her for something and asked her to come over. She put down her work and hurried over.
As a result, when he walked to the gate of the eldest lady's courtyard, he felt a chill on his back. Something must be going to happen. If he said something wrong, he would probably be beaten.
Maybe what Gu Leyou said was right. I can't be trapped in this birthing compound for the rest of my life. But I have already chosen this path and there is no way I can regret it.
The nanny beside the eldest lady saw her coming and quickly invited her in.
"What are you looking at at the door, girl? Come in quickly, the lady wants to see you."
Liu Suyu walked in.
The lady looked at her viciously, and then ordered someone to throw a small box in front of her, and then questioned: "You little bitch, you are so bold that you dare to steal things. No wonder I found that a lot of my jewelry was missing these days. It turned out that it was with you? If you don't give me a reasonable explanation today, don't even think about walking out of here alive."
Liu Suyu looked at the familiar small box in front of her, her head buzzed, and she instantly realized that someone had deliberately framed her.
She fell to her knees with a thud, her voice trembling but she tried to remain calm: "Madam, I definitely didn't steal this. Someone must have framed me. The jewelry in this box was collected by me when I was a concubine. I swear to God that I have never touched a cent of yours."
The eldest lady snorted coldly, her face full of disdain: "Humph, you are just a servant, and you still dare to quibble? It was saved when I was a concubine? Who can prove it?"
At this time, the nanny beside her said sarcastically: "Madam, I think she is just the thief crying "stop thief".
I've seen her acting mysterious these days. Maybe she has been eyeing your baby for a long time. ”
Liu Suyu had no way to defend herself, but this was truly her own.
She could conclude that she was being framed.
This was all too much of a coincidence. When he wanted to pawn the jewelry, his wife said that she had stolen it. Could it be that his wife discovered his little trick and deliberately framed her? This lady seems to be very vicious. Is there anything she can't do?
The eldest lady looked her up and down, pretended to cough a few times and asked, "Tell me the truth, did you steal these jewelry from me? You clean the house for me every day, no one else would dare to have such an idea. And you said you didn't steal them, do you have any witnesses?"
The lady took a sip of water and said nothing more. Instead, the nanny beside her continued, "As long as you can tell who gave you these things and there is someone to testify, the lady and the others will believe you. Otherwise, they will definitely kick you out of the house."
"Madam, I said that the person who gave me these rewards was the master. You can call the master and ask him. I can't lie about such a big thing."
In fact, the lady had her own plan. If she took all these things for herself, then this little girl would not be able to cause any trouble. This was what she had planned long ago.
Liu Suyu never thought that after a trip out, she would get into such a big trouble when she came back.
As for how things have developed to this point today, we have to start from this morning.
When he finished his work in the morning and was about to sneak out through the back door, he was seen by a maidservant serving the eldest lady.
This maid was called Guo'er. She usually didn't get along with Liu Suyu. She thought, they were the same kind of people, so why could Liu Suyu become a concubine and give birth to a child, while she could only be a servant and be at the mercy of others?
So when she saw him sneaking out from the back door, she immediately reported it to the eldest lady. Although the eldest lady didn't know where the little girl was going, she had long been thinking about some of the little girl's jewelry, which she liked, so she had long wanted to take her for herself, but she didn't have a suitable reason. But God gave her the opportunity.
I must get those things today no matter what.
The nanny said at this time: "Don't be so stubborn, little girl. Our master has a lot of things to do every day, so he doesn't have time to take care of such a small matter as yours. You'd better confess quickly, otherwise you will probably suffer physical pain."
After the nanny finished speaking, she ordered people to prepare a board and planned to beat her.
Liu Suyu had never seen such a scene before. From childhood to adulthood, although her family was not well off, her parents never let her suffer at all, let alone beat her.
But she didn't make any mistakes today. She just wanted to fulfill her obligations as a mother and buy a small gift for her own son. However, she was tricked by the eldest lady.
However, she would not admit that she had stolen things because it was a false accusation. If the eldest lady wanted those things, she could just take them.
Liu Suyu took a deep breath and looked directly into the eyes of the eldest lady, her eyes firm: "Madam, I have a clear conscience, this is mine, the master will be able to testify for me.
If you insist on forcing me to confess, I will never admit to this false accusation even if I die. "The eldest lady's face darkened. She was irritated by her tough attitude and was about to explode when footsteps suddenly came from outside the door.
It turned out that the master had returned. He heard the noise in the mistress's yard, so he came to see.
When the eldest lady saw the master, she immediately changed her expression to one of grievance, and stepped forward and said, "Master, you are finally back. This Liu Suyu stole my jewelry, and she refused to admit it when I found out. You have to make a decision for me."
The master frowned, looked at Liu Suyu who was kneeling on the ground, and asked, "What's going on?"
Liu Suyu kowtowed quickly and said anxiously, "Master, please help me. The jewelry in this box was given to me by you before. I have never stolen anything from you. I just want to exchange these jewelry for money to buy a gift for my son. I don't want to be framed."
A complex emotion flashed in the master's eyes. After thinking for a moment, he turned to the eldest lady and said, "Madam, I have some impression of this matter. These jewelry were indeed given to her by me."
When the eldest lady heard this, her face turned pale and red. She didn't expect the master to come forward to testify for Liu Suyu. Her resentment grew even stronger, but she couldn't get angry, so she could only force a smile: "So that's how it is. It seems I misunderstood." After saying that, she glared at Guo'er who was standing beside her, and Guo'er lowered her head in fear.
Liu Suyu was relieved to see that the situation had taken a turn for the better, and she kowtowed to the master and the eldest lady to express her gratitude. However, the eldest lady refused to give up. She thought that since she couldn't just take the jewelry away, she would find a way to make Liu Suyu hand it over herself.
However, the nanny next to her heard Liu Suyu calling the eldest young master her son.
This was a bad rule, so she quickly reminded her wife.
"Madam, this little girl seems to have said something wrong again, saying that she is the young master's mother. You must not let it go easily, lest something goes wrong. Once the young master grows up and finds out, the consequences will be disastrous."
After being reminded, the doctor realized that this woman was so bold. Didn't she say that she couldn't claim to be the eldest young master's mother? But she actually said in front of the master that she was the eldest young master's mother. So where did she, the eldest lady, stand?
It seems that this little girl can't stay any longer. I have to find a way to get rid of her, otherwise my position as the eldest lady will be replaced by someone else sooner or later.
Although it was her idea to get rid of the mother and keep the child, she didn't want anyone to take her place.
Liu Suyu didn't want to be bullied, so she said directly: "Madam, I am just a servant. If you really want those jewelry, just tell me and I will give it to you. Don't think of such a dirty trick to harm innocent people."
When the eldest lady heard this, she became furious and slapped her in the face.
In fact, the master was very clear about the eldest lady's little thoughts. He was unwilling to expose them because he cared about the relationship between husband and wife. Besides, Liu Suyu was still the mother of his son after all, so he had to show some affection for her.
The eldest lady will not let this matter go. If she cannot get what she wants or if this little girl has other ideas, or if she still wants to be the master, she will never allow it. After all, this child can only have her as a mother, no one else is allowed.
When this little girl chose this path, she had advised her, but she didn't listen and insisted on choosing this path. If she changes her mind now, she will definitely not give her a chance.
You have made your own choice, and you have to follow the path you choose. This is the rule of their wealthy family.
Liu Suyu thought about it for a long time in this house and finally figured it out. Gu Leyou was right and she couldn't make such mistakes anymore.
The child is only a part of my life, not the whole. If I stay with the child, I will be suspected by the eldest lady. Maybe it is better to leave and give myself some time to create my own world. Since they want the child, they will take good care of the child. When the child grows up, I will find a chance to tell the child the truth.
So she secretly wrote a letter to a trustworthy person and sent it to Gu Leyou in Gujia Village, hoping that the person would help her.
Gu Leyou has always been a kind-hearted person. When she saw the letter, she decided to help. The letter was also very simple, just a few short sentences.
Gu Leyou discussed this matter with Lu Yan later.
When Lu Yan heard this, he was immediately furious.
"Look at the bright and clear sky, how can we allow such people to be so lawless? This is a marriage fraud. It would be strange if it wasn't a marriage fraud. They just want the girl to give birth to the child. When she is no longer useful, of course they can kick her out. But the girl is also stupid. She is willing to stay there. If it were me, I would secretly take the child and leave. In fact, no mother in the world can abandon her own child. Although she was deceived, she also has the right to take her child away."
Gu Leyou disagrees with this statement.
Although he was deceived at the beginning, he was willing to stay. Although he was not a real maid in the mansion, this was the path he chose, and he had to go on no matter how difficult it was. Now he regretted it and didn't want to be a servant anymore, but those people in the mansion would definitely not let her go. Instead of doing this, it would be better for her to get out and wait until she had made a career and the child had grown up. Then she could tell the child everything, and the child would eventually recognize her.
Next, it depends on how Gu Leyou helps her escape from that wealthy family.
After some discussion, Gu Leyou and Lu Yan decided to sneak into the wealthy family to find out the truth.
Relying on his excellent martial arts, Lu Yan, under the cover of night, climbed over the high wall of the wealthy family without being noticed and sneaked into the servants' room where Liu Suyu lived.
When Liu Suyu saw Lu Yan suddenly appear, she was surprised and happy, and her eyes instantly turned red.
Lu Yan lowered his voice and told her everything about Gu Leyou's plan.
"Let's keep our voices down. We all know what happened to you. Since you don't want the county magistrate to deal with your case, you have no choice but to leave here. But the prerequisite is that you have to leave the child behind. If you don't, then I'm in trouble. And more importantly, you have to find someone you can trust to help you, otherwise it will be difficult for you to escape from this mansion."
"I know this. The maid who served me before is an honest person with a kind nature. He should help me."
"If you manage to escape under his protection, remember to go to the antique shop in the east of the city to find the owner. We will be waiting for you there. In fact, it will be a good thing for them if you leave. At least they won't have to worry so much."
Liu Suyu nodded.
