There were many people standing in this part of the corridor, blocking all the lights. The nurse was lying on the ground, unable to see the expression on Gu Xinglang's face. After a moment of silence, she continued to cry and shouted that the Gu family was bullying. ..
Madam Sun glanced at the old lady and suppressed her dissatisfaction. The old lady was the one who made the decisions about the affairs of the Gu family, but it was Madam Sun who handled the matter. So the men in the Gu family didn't know how much benefit the old lady had given to the Ruan family and how good she was to the Ruan family, but Madam Sun knew it. Now a servant in the Ruan mansion dared to shout and make a scene in the Gu mansion. This was the result of the old lady's indulgence.
Gu Xinglang said coldly: "I'll say it again, how long are you going to cry?"
The nurse cried, "You Gu family..."
Gu Xinglang bent down, grabbed the wet nurse's neck with one hand, and lifted up the wet nurse, whose figure was not inferior to that of Nanny Wang.
The nurse had difficulty breathing and her crying stopped immediately.
Gu Xinglang casually threw the wet nurse out of the corridor.
"ah--"
After a moment's silence in the courtyard, screams were heard.
The wet nurse's neck was twisted by Gu Xinglang, her face turned backwards, and her fat body fell under the flower stand with her left leg resting on the edge of the flower stand. It was unknown whether she died after landing on the ground or in Gu Xinglang's hands.
Amid the screams, several timid maids fainted.
The old lady looked at Gu Xinglang and tried to take a step forward tremblingly, but before he could take a step, he fainted on the ground.
"What do you want to call?" Gu Xingyan said at this time: "Help the old man go to the room."
Mrs. Sun's face was pale and she was also afraid, but she still forced herself to take people to help the old lady back to her room.
Gu Xinglang stood in the corridor, his heart boiling with anger. The living people in front of him made Gu Xinglang's face hidden in the darkness hideous and distorted. Only the dead would be quiet, Gu Shao thought to himself, the living people are making noise.
"Xinglang?" Gu Xingyan ran to Gu Xinglang and reached out to pull Gu Xinglang.
Gu Xinglang raised his hand and held Gu Xingyan's wrist.
Gu Xingyan was startled. Gu Xinglang's hands were obviously shaking, and the shaking was severe. "Xinglang!" Gu Xingyan asked hurriedly, "What's wrong with you?"
"Someone's dead!" A frightened maid was still shouting hysterically in the corridor.
Gu Xinglang looked at the maid, loosened Gu Xingyan's wrist, and raised his hand to pick up the maid.
The maid's throat was pinched by Gu Xinglang. She struggled desperately but could not make a sound.
"Xinglang!" Gu Xingyan knew something was wrong, but he didn't have time to think about it. He reached out and grabbed Gu Xinglang's right hand, which was pinching the maid's throat, trying to make Gu Xinglang let go.
Gu Xingyan tried his best to pry Gu Xinglang's right hand apart, but it remained motionless.
The little maid gradually stopped struggling in Gu Xinglang's hands.
"Xinglang!" Gu Xingyan held Gu Xinglang's shoulders and yelled at his brother.
A look of struggle flashed across Gu Xinglang's face.
"Let go, Xinglang!" Gu Xingyan said loudly.
Gu Xinglang turned his head and looked at Gu Xingyan.
Gu Xingyan looked anxious. His brother was having a relapse of his illness. Was his brother a medicine man now?
"Second, second brother?" Gu Xinglang said hesitantly in a low voice.
"Yes, I'm the second brother," Gu Xingyan said quickly, "Let go first, and we can talk it out, okay?"
Gu Xinglang raised his head and looked at the person in his hand again, and rubbed the maid's neck twice with his fingers.
The little maid's tears dripped onto Gu Xinglang's hands like rain.
"Xinglang," Gu Xingyan almost coaxed Gu Xinglang, "Release the person first, and I'll take you back. Isn't the princess still waiting for you at home? Xiaoxiao, have you forgotten?"
The name Xiaoxiao made Gu Xinglang use less strength in his hands.
The little maid screamed, but then shut her mouth, not daring to make any sound.
Gu Xinglang spread out his fingers.
The little maid fell to the ground and almost crawled away from Gu Xinglang.
No one in the courtyard dared to speak at this time. No one knew what happened to the young master, but everyone was frightened by Gu Xinglang.
"Xinglang," Gu Xingyan finally held Gu Xinglang's hand. Gu Xinglang's hands were cold, as if they had been buried in the snow.
"They are very noisy," Gu Xinglang said to his brother.
Gu Xingyan said: "Yes, otherwise how can we call women? Second brother also thinks they are noisy."
Gu Xinglang looked at the place where Ruan Tian had just stood.
Miss Ruan saw with her own eyes that Gu Xinglang beat her wet nurse to death. She did not faint, but now she was standing against the wall, looking at Gu Xinglang with fear and anxiety.
"Send her to the posthouse at the east city gate," Gu Xingyan ordered, "and keep an eye on her."
No one responded, and people just stood there stupidly.
Gu Xingyan shouted at the women around her: "Why don't you go now?!"
Several mothers-in-law seemed to have just woken up from a dream, ran forward, and dragged Ruan Tian away.
Ruan Tian didn't dare to call her cousin this time. She alone could not match the strength of five or six old ladies. In the blink of an eye, she was dragged out of the courtyard by the old ladies.
"Get all the servants from the Ruan Mansion out of here," Gu Xingyan ordered the housekeeper, "Send someone to keep an eye on them and don't let them run around."
The butler replied "yes" and left in a hurry with a few servants.
Gu Xingyan looked at the people still present and said, "Everyone, leave."
Soon, there were many people standing in the courtyard, except for the old lady's room, and only the two brothers of the Gu family were left standing in the corridor.
Gu Xingyan pushed Gu Xinglang to sit on the railing of the corridor, half squatted down, and asked Gu Xinglang in a low voice: "Are you feeling unwell?"
Gu Xinglang remembered the murder this time. He looked down at his hands and his body trembled.
"Xinglang," Gu Xingyan hurriedly held Gu Xinglang's hands and said, "It's okay, it's okay. Father can still live after such a terrible condition. Xinglang, you will be fine."
"Father?" Gu Xinglang asked doubtfully, "Am I the same as my father?"
"No," the second young master Gu, who almost let the cat out of the bag, said hurriedly, "Our father was harmed by Mo Wen, and you are also in Mo Wen's hands? What are you thinking? Xinglang, you don't want to be well, right?"
Gu Xinglang said: "Didn't the princess tell you about me?"
"I told you," Gu Xingyan said, "I mean, even a princess like our father could be saved, so the princess will be able to cure your problem. Don't overthink it. Do you hear me?"
Gu Xinglang said: "Second brother, I don't feel well."
Gu Xingyan felt a pang of pain in his heart. Gu Xinglang looked like he had lost his soul just now. How could he not know that his brother was in bad condition?
"I'm afraid that if I go crazy, I will hurt Xiaoxiao and you too," Gu Xinglang whispered, "Just now, I really wanted to kill someone."
Gu Xingyan stood up, hugged Gu Xinglang's head, and deliberately joked: "You really think you are a big shot, can you beat the princess, or can you beat me and your elder brother? Your martial arts were taught by me and your elder brother, am I afraid you're crazy?"
