Chapter 162 Feng Jin did it
Baihu Yaoyao was certain that Gu Xiao must have been cut by Feng Jin.
He should have known that Gu Xiao spoke disrespectfully to her.
She felt happy to have such a protective husband.
"Brother, the Gu family only has this one child, and now he has become a disabled person. The Gu family must be going crazy."
Especially Gu Rong, who relied on the fact that he was a descendant of the Gu family and had always been in control of the Marquis' Mansion.
Isn’t it just because she relies on the Gu family to support her?
Now that the Gu family is struggling to take care of themselves, who can still support her?
"It would be strange if he's not crazy! When I came here just now, I saw Gu Rong leaving the house in a panic. I guess he went to the Gu Mansion."
Although Gu Rong was the product of a one-night stand by the head of the Gu family, she was also a concubine's daughter adopted by the Gu family.
She used her mother's dowry to please the entire Gu family, especially Gu Xiao, who treated Gu Rong as her own aunt.
Gu Xiao and Sheng Ling are good cousins.
Sheng Ling is Gu Rong's son. I'm afraid he has also heard the news that Gu Xiao was crippled?
Sheng Ling is a small leader of the Imperial Guards and will definitely investigate the matter of Gu Xiao being deposed.
He investigated but could find nothing.
It's a great achievement for him to be able to find Feng Jin.
"Just go, who has mother's dowry now?" asked the white fox Yaoyao.
My eldest brother has been back for so long, saying that he would bring back mother's dowry, but there has been no movement so far.
Sheng Shi's face was gloomy. "It's gone! Before I came back, my mother's dowry was all used up by the Marquis' Mansion. The most was secretly sent to the Gu family by Gu Rong. Gu Rong has been managing the Marquis' Mansion all these years. The old lady and Sheng Jian didn't know that my mother's dowry had been emptied by her."
He had been back for so long, but he had only recovered less than one-tenth of the dowry, and the rest was gone.
"Brother, isn't the old lady going to personally arrange Sheng Jian's wedding in a few days?"
The old lady is a short-sighted person and she values money very much.
She couldn't sleep for a long time because of the pain of giving away every stitch in the Marquis's mansion.
Those dowries are the capital to support the expenses of the Marquis' Mansion. If the old lady knew that all the dowries were taken by Gu Rong to please the Gu family, would she kill him?
Shengshi smiled and said, "That's right! We need to let the old lady find out for herself that her dowry is gone."
After the brother and sister finished discussing things, Shengshi left.
Baihu Yaoyao finds Jiang Yiyi and asks her to persuade the old lady at all costs, take back the key to the warehouse and arrange the wedding herself.
Jiang Yiyi said she understood.
As soon as the white fox Yaoyao left, Jiang Yiyi went to the old lady's yard.
Not knowing what she said, the old lady immediately ordered someone to call Gu Rong.
"What? Back to Gu's house? No matter where she is, ask her to come back immediately. If she doesn't come back, she shouldn't come back either."
The old lady got angry.
The serving nanny did not dare to slack off and hurried to the Gu family to look for someone.
Gu Rong was called back to the Marquis' Mansion and was very unhappy.
When she arrived at the old lady's room, she was also in a bad mood, "Mom, your daughter-in-law still has things to do at the Gu family! Why are you calling me back in such a hurry?"
The Gu family's affairs have not been settled yet, and the whole family is counting on her to find a solution.
She couldn't help feeling resentful for being called back suddenly.
The old lady was brainwashed by Jiang Yiyi and no longer liked Gu Rong.
"I want to arrange Jian'er's wedding. Give me the key to the warehouse. This wedding must be a grand occasion."
The old lady looked at her suspiciously. Could it be true, as Yiyi said, that she used the things from the Marquis' Mansion to subsidize the Gu Mansion?
Gu Rong panicked.
The storehouse of the Marquis' Mansion has been almost emptied. If the old lady knew that she had used all that money to subsidize the Gu family, she would definitely beat her to death.
"Old Madam, your health is not good. It would be too tiring to handle the wedding. Why don't you leave it to me? I will definitely make the Marquis's wedding a grand occasion."
We can’t let the old lady get the warehouse key back. If she sees that there is nothing in the warehouse, the Marquis will not forgive her.
She knew the character of this mother and son. They were both selfish and would not tolerate touching even a single needle or thread in the Marquis's mansion.
The old lady also felt that she was unable to do it, but thinking of Jiang Yiyi's identity, she decided to do it herself.
"No need. Just bring the key over as soon as possible. I'm tired. You can go down first."
The old lady chased people away.
"Yes." Gu Rong could only retreat.
On the way back, my legs were shaking as I walked.
"Mammy, what should we do? All the things in the warehouse have been taken to the Gu family, and the rest has been used to buy an official position for Ling'er. If the old lady finds out about this, I'm done for."
Over the years, she relied on bringing things back to subsidize the Gu family to gain their attention.
If she didn't bring anything back to the Gu Mansion, those people would still look down on her.
Therefore, she has tasted the sweetness over the years. As long as she brings back things from the Marquis' Mansion, she will be praised and praised by those in the Gu Mansion.
The feeling of being pampered was so good that she enjoyed it again and again, forgetting that these things belonged to the Marquis' Mansion.
The nanny also sighed, "Madam, you should first think about winning back the Marquis's heart. As long as the Marquis protects you, the old lady won't do anything to you."
She couldn't stand what the lady had done over the years, but she couldn't say anything.
Now the truth has been revealed.
"Yes, yes! I have to win back the Marquis's heart first." Gu Rong was anxious.
Ever since Jiang Yiyi and that bastard came back, everything has gone wrong for her.
Back in the room, Gu Rong took out her best rouge, put on her most beautiful clothes, and went straight to Sheng Jian's study.
In the past, they always had their affairs in the study, which they found particularly exciting.
Sheng Jian sat in the study in a listless state, thinking about that little devil Yiyi last night, who almost drained him dry. He still had some back pain.
"My Lord." Gu Rong walked into the study room pretending to be shy.
Sheng Jian shuddered and quickly pulled her in and closed the door. "Why are you here? It would be embarrassing if someone saw us."
Gu Rong felt aggrieved. The Marquis would never speak to her like this before.
"My Lord, why can't I come? Are you really planning to marry that woman?"
She would never allow the Marquis to marry that woman.
Sheng Jian pushed her away. Now he had no interest in Gu Rong at all.
Especially today she was wearing pink clothes. She was pretending to be young at her age, which made him feel uncomfortable.
Where is that seductive little devil Yiyi?
"Isn't what I said clear enough? If I don't marry her, will I marry you?"
"Don't forget, we only reached an agreement in the beginning. You have already established a firm foothold in the Marquis' Mansion over the years. It is better to keep your distance from us in the future. I don't want Yiyi to misunderstand us."
Sheng Jian's words were extremely heartless.
Back then, he and Gu Rong had similar interests and had been hooking up with each other for a long time.
Gu Rong is a concubine who cannot be seen in public, and Sheng Jian is an incompetent man with no talent.
The title of Marquis should have been given to his elder brother, but he and Gu Rong plotted against him and he died on his wedding night.
It was said that Sheng Ci died on his wedding night due to long-term illness.
They all know what is actually going on.
Gu Rong was unwilling to accept this. "Are you trying to draw a line between you and me? Don't forget, I gave birth to two children for you, and it was you who wanted to cooperate with me in the first place."
Back then, it was he who asked her to cooperate.
There was no way he could get rid of her now.
A dark light flashed in Sheng Jian's eyes. This woman could not be kept.
