When Gu Yunran returned to the yard, Wenxiu was standing at the door waiting for her.
Seeing Gu Yunran coming back, she stepped forward and handed Gu Yunran a thick cloak.
"Second Madam, you are finally back. I have been waiting for you at the door for a long time."
Ruizhu took the cloak in her hand, glanced at Wenxiu, and asked, "Is there anything wrong?"
Wenxiu shook her head: "No."
Gu Yunran looked at her and smiled faintly: "Ever since I married into the Mu Mansion, you have come to my yard to work as a watering maid. You have always been diligent in your work and not talkative. You talked the most tonight, right?"
Wenxiu lowered her head and replied weakly, "Slave servant, slave servant dare not speak to the master."
"Are you so timid?" Ruizhu snorted coldly, "If you are timid, just quietly do your job."
Wenxiu was stunned, not knowing what Ruizhu meant, but she lowered her head, her palms sweating with nervousness.
"Okay, it's getting late. I have Zhuye and Ruizhu to serve me. I don't need you. Go to bed."
"yes."
Wenxiu lowered her head and ran back to her room.
Looking at her back, Gu Yunran shook her head. She treated this girl well and never treated her harshly. She didn't expect that in the face of interests, she still chose Mu Qianjiao and betrayed herself.
Back in the room, Gu Yunran fell asleep, and she woke up again in the middle of the night.
"Ruizhu, is she asleep?"
Ruizhu said, "He's already fast asleep."
"Go and see what you bought under the peach tree?"
"yes."
Ruizhu turned around and walked out. She dug under the peach tree for a while. When she saw the buried things, her beautiful eyebrows twisted together and her face turned a little pale.
She picked up the thing carefully, walked into the house and showed it to Gu Yunran.
"Second Grandma, this is really the thing."
Zhuye was also shocked when he saw that thing, "I didn't expect that the fourth young lady would do such a thing?"
"This person wearing these clothes and looking like this is clearly the old lady. How could she have the heart to do this to the old lady? How could she be so cruel to her?"
Compared to the two girls' shock, Gu Yunran seemed very calm.
"She hated the old lady in her heart and felt that she was partial to her."
"The Fourth Miss is really clever. She's pinning the blame on you. Not only is she trying to bring bad accusations upon you, Second Madam, but she's also letting the old lady off the hook."
"Wasn't the Fourth Young Lady this clever before? When did she become so scheming?"
Ruizhu was puzzled. Zhuye said, "I heard that the fourth young lady likes reading storybooks recently. Maybe she learned it from them."
"Oh, by the way, those storybooks were given to him by the Second Miss. I don't know where the Second Miss got so many storybooks. She gave a box to the Fourth Miss."
Gu Yunran thought about it, and suddenly she understood.
"The second sister is the master. She has learned a lot of skills outside for so many years."
She frowned slightly and looked at Ruizhu: "Ruizhu, is there any news from Ningxue?"
Ruizhu shook her head: "Not yet."
"Wait."
She didn't believe that the second young lady went to Hanshan Temple just to pray for the old lady.
"Yes, I will send a message to Ningxue right away, asking her to wait patiently."
Gu Yunran nodded: "Yes." She wrapped the figurine intact and handed it to Ruizhu: "You know what to do, right?"
"I understand."
Ruizhu took the package and turned to leave.
Zhuye came over and said, "Miss, it's only Chou Hour now. There's still some time before dawn. You should rest for a while."
"good."
Gu Yunran lay down.
In a blink of an eye, half a month passed. The Mu Mansion was very peaceful and the old lady lived a leisurely life. She smiled more often and gained a lot of weight.
"The mansion has been much quieter lately."
"Who said it wasn't?" Mother Mu took a blanket and covered the old lady. "The fourth young lady has learned the rules in vain. She won't make a fuss anymore."
"Oh, I would have forgotten if you hadn't told me." The old lady sat up straight. "Jiaojiao, you've been learning these rules for about half a month, right? What does Mother Li say?"
Mother Mu smiled and said, "Mother Li said that the fourth young lady has learned very well and is much more sensible than before."
"That's good, that's great. This girl has been spoiled since she was a child and doesn't know the rules, but she has a good temper and a good heart."
"That's right." Mother Mu poured the old lady another glass of water and handed it to her. "It's winter and the weather is dry. Drink some water to moisten your mouth."
"Okay." The old lady took the cup, took a sip, and then said, "Since the fourth girl has learned the rules well, and it's almost the New Year, let her come out."
"Hey." Mother Mu smiled, "I'll go tell Second Madam right away."
"Go ahead."
Mother Mu left the yard and saw Qin at the door. She said lightly, "Madam."
Mama Mu was the old lady's wet nurse and had always been by her side. She was extremely kind to the old lady and the old lady respected her very much. Therefore, Qin Shi did not dare to say a word in front of Mama Mu, just like in front of the old lady.
She nodded, replied yes, and then asked cautiously: "Does the old lady agree?"
"The fourth young lady has been behaving well recently. How can an elder not feel sorry for his own granddaughter? Let me go and tell the second grandmother to let the fourth young lady come out."
Qin smiled when she heard this: "That's great, thank you, Mother Mu!"
As she spoke, she bowed to Mama Mu, who held her up with her hand. "Madam, I didn't help you at all."
"It's because the Fourth Miss has made great progress recently that the old lady allowed her to come out."
