The person who came was Songzhi, the girl whose eyes were pecked by the system.
Her face was now covered in blood and she looked extremely miserable, but she still insisted on coming to report to the eldest wife. This was enough to show how harshly Guan treated her servants. Songzhi didn't even care about her injuries and only remembered to come and report.
When Guan saw Songzhi like this, she was shocked and angry.
"What did you say? Madness?!"
Guan was so stupid that she ignored what Songzhi said before, that Bai Yuzhi had a gun in his hand.
She threw the teacup, very angry: "What a little bastard, she just slept in the master's room for one night, could she really be infected with madness? This useless thing, no wonder she went to a funeral instead of a wedding!"
Guan was already domineering, and now that she saw Mr. Xu was gone, she became even more lawless. She thought that the entire Xu Mansion would fall into the hands of her and her son, and she spoke without any restraint.
It was the second concubine, who was originally a maid brought from Madam Lin's family. She grew up with Madam Lin and had some knowledge of poetry, books and etiquette. It was Madam Lin who personally promoted her to concubine, so she grasped the key points.
"A gun? How could she, a woman, have a gun?"
Songzhi didn't know what happened in the inner room, so he asked the old woman to report it.
"To answer the Second Concubine's question, this morning I entered the room and wanted to wake the Ninth Concubine. Who would have thought that the Ninth Concubine was holding a gun! She pointed the gun back and forth at people, shouting, 'Don't come over here.'"
The third concubine replied inappropriately: "Oh my God, could it be that the master was unwilling to die and came back to find her again?"
The second concubine glanced indifferently at the third concubine who was shrinking beside her and pretending to be shy. The master was dead, but this concubine was still pretending to be an actress. No one paid any attention to her, so the third concubine became quiet again.
Finally, the Sixth Concubine remembered something: "I remember it now!"
Last night, she went to Mr. Xu's room with the Eighth Concubine. The Eighth Concubine was kicked out by Xu Hanshan because she was ungrateful, but she was indeed there the whole time. Not only her, but also Xu Lanyin.
"This gun was given to me by the eldest young master. Before he left, he said it was for exchanging beads!"
This shocked the whole room.
This gun was actually given by Xu Hanshan!
They suddenly had the same questions as Xu Lanyin had last night.
What kind of bead is it that is so priceless that Xu Hanshan would exchange it for a gun!
If Bai Yuzhi really had such a good thing, why would her father sell her to the Xu Mansion for the purpose of getting married?
Guan immediately denied the Sixth Concubine's statement. Among all the people present, no one knew Xu Hanshan's character better than her. This kid was a wolf and a tiger. His mind was full of how to tear a piece of meat from others on the battlefield. How could he possibly exchange a gun for beads?
But the Sixth Concubine was not convinced: "If the First Madam doesn't believe it, the Third Miss was there that day and she heard it with her own ears!"
There are three daughters in the Xu family. The eldest daughter is the second concubine's daughter and is already married. The second daughter died young. The remaining one is Xu Lanyin, the daughter of Guan.
Although Xu Lanyin has two younger brothers, she is indeed the youngest daughter of Master Xu. Master Xu usually dotes on her, so she has a very good relationship with him. Moreover, she is Guan's biological daughter, so Guan must believe her.
After the Sixth Concubine said this, everyone really believed it to about 70%.
"Did he really give it to me?"
Guan's mind raced, and she thought of some romantic scenes.
If Xu Hanshan, the obstacle that had always been so difficult for her to deal with, really had his eyes on the Ninth Concubine, then...
The second concubine looked at Guan's face and knew what she was up to, and her expression was solemn.
She was a maid who grew up with Madam Lin. She treated Madam Lin with a true master-servant relationship, and also regarded Madam Lin's only son Xu Hanshan as her own little master.
Even though Mrs. Lin has passed away now, the second concubine is still willing to help Xu Hanshan.
The current situation is probably no longer enough to stop Guan's evil ambitions.
How could her son, who was obsessed with women, be worthy of competing with the eldest young master for the position of heir to the Xu Mansion?!
The second concubine said, "Whether it's true or not, why don't you sisters go and take a look."
The mother-in-law hurriedly stopped him: "No, Second Concubine, this Ninth Concubine must be in a state of terror. Now she's pointing a gun everywhere. If we're not careful, someone could die!"
The second concubine was not really afraid that Bai Yuzhi was really scared and went crazy. She just wanted to take advantage of this situation to force Guan to admit that Bai Yuzhi could no longer recognize people. It would be best to send him back to his family for this reason, so as to stop Guan's conspiracy to use Bai Yuzhi to deal with Xu Hanshan.
Now, except for the people in Xu's house, all the ladies from the noble families in Huchuan don't recognize Bai Yuzhi's face. If Xu Hanshan really has feelings for her, he can just change her identity and keep her by his side.
Anyway, as long as Bai Yuzhi leaves the Xu Mansion, it means she is no longer Xu Hanshan's concubine. No matter what Xu Hanshan wants to do, Guan Shi will have no chance to get hold of her.
So the Second Concubine was unusually strong: "What's the big deal? There are so many servants in the Xu Mansion. She just had a nightmare, not really killed anyone. Who can be afraid of her?"
"What do you think, Madam?" The second concubine used the method of provoking the first wife, which was the best way to control her.
As expected, the eldest wife could not stand the provocation and immediately agreed.
"Am I afraid of her? Go, call all those servants who usually eat idle meals, and go and deal with her now!"
A few gorgeously dressed women, along with the sullen eldest wife, followed by servants armed with wooden sticks and iron bars, went to Master Xu's place in a mighty procession.
The second concubine felt something was wrong and sent someone to tell Xu Hanshan, who lived in the mansion next door, about everything.
Her original intention was to remove Bai Yuzhi from this mansion, but she didn't want anyone to harm her.
The girl obeyed the order and slipped out quietly while there were many people around.
The eldest wife and her men forced their way into Mr. Xu's outer room, but did not see Bai Yuzhi.
"Where's that ungrateful bitch? Drag her out here!"
Guan had never been so arrogant before, but after Master Xu passed away last night, this woman had a taste of what it was like to be the boss of the household. She became even more outspoken and used such vulgar language in front of the servants.
Although the servants despised such a master in their hearts, they also wanted to please the eldest lady so that they could have wealth and glory, so they rubbed their hands and rushed in.
The second concubine did not expect Guan to be so blatant, and her heart skipped a beat. However, she remembered that the girl in the house had a gun in her hand, so she restrained herself and did not move.
She was being too careless, but now that her master was gone, if the young man born to her master really did something bad, she would have to help keep an eye on him.
Xu Hanshan's current status is very high, and if you want to be his woman, you need some courage and ability.
Just like that, four servants rushed in, but after a moment, a gunshot rang out in the air, and only three cowards ran out in a panic.
"She, she shot!"
