It’s great to be reborn and marry your brother, but your ex-husband cried and called you sister-in-l

During the afternoon break, the secret guard brought the latest news to Xiao Yanlin: "The second master has gone to find the second prince."

This sentence was like pressing a time-freezing switch. For a full stick of incense, Xiao Yanlin remained silent and said nothing.

The secret guard wanted to comfort him, but he didn't know where to start, so he could only retreat silently.

When Gu Baiyu woke up, she saw Xiao Yanlin guarding her. When she started to do it, he hugged her silently.

He still didn't speak, remained silent.

Gu Baiyu sensed something was wrong and could only hug Xiao Yanlin tighter.

After a long while, Xiao Yanlin spoke, his voice hoarse as if he hadn't spoken for a long time.

His tone was still calm, but Gu Baiyu could hear a hint of loneliness in it.

"Yu'er, when Ruoyun grows up, I will let him leave the Hou Mansion and build his own manor."

How smart is Gu Baiyu?

After hearing this, what is there that you don’t understand?

She only hesitated for a second and then said: "I was not injured this time, and the child is fine. If the second master is insisting, Gu Ruanruan's side..."

Xiao Yanlin shook his head: "I know you let Gu Ruanruan go again and again just for me, but Ruoyun should learn to grow up."

Gu Baiyu sighed.

It seemed that in this life, no matter how hard she tried, the fates of Xiao Ruoyun and Gu Baiyu seemed to be controlled by a pair of invisible hands and firmly tied together.

"The Marquis has made a decision, and I will support it."

Xiao Yanlin finally revealed some information to Gu Baiyu: "Ruoyun went to find the second prince."

Gu Baiyu made a move.

In a simple sentence, they all understood what it meant.

The second prince and Xiao Yanlin were now locked in a fight to the death. Xiao Ruoyun went to seek help from the second prince, which was tantamount to choosing to stand on the opposite side of his brother in the confrontation between the two.

And all this is because of Gu Ruanruan.

Xiao Ruoyun has already made a choice between his brother and Gu Ruanruan.

"The second prince is probably coming to save people."

Xiao Yanlin shook his head: "It's not that easy. Yu'er, I saw that the flowers in the backyard are blooming well. In the afternoon, you will take Lingyu to the backyard to drink tea and look at the flowers, right?"

Gu Baiyu shook his head: "No, Master Hou is going to deal with Gu Ruanruan in the front yard in advance?"

Xiao Yanlin was helpless. Sometimes it was annoying for Madam to be too smart.

"She will hate me. I don't want her to hate you more. Besides, you can't see blood now. I'm afraid you won't feel comfortable."

Gu Baiyu held his hand: "I won't. This is a grudge between me and her. I'm not afraid of her hating me, because she has a reason for her crime."

"The child in the belly will not be afraid, because his father is venting his anger on his mother."

"If he is a boy, he should have learned how to protect his family in his mother's womb;"

"If she is a girl, she should learn how to protect herself in the back house."

"I don't want my children to be pampered and grow up to be too kind and naive. They should learn to distinguish right from wrong and protect themselves and their families."

Gu Baiyu's words were gentle but firm, leaving Xiao Yanlin with no reason to refuse.

"Okay, then come with me."

Underground torture chamber.

Ever since Gu Ruanruan threatened to die and Xiao Ruoyun finally agreed to find Gu Ruanruan to find the second prince, Gu Ruanruan has been a little uneasy.

Her heart was beating wildly for no reason, and she could only comfort herself because she was about to be free again.

However, less than an hour after Xiao Ruoyun left, the door of the execution room was opened.

Seeing that the person coming was the secret guard beside Xiao Yanlin, Gu Ruanruan's heart skipped a beat.

"Where is the second master?"

The secret guard sneered: "Are you still waiting for the second master to bring in reinforcements to rescue you? What a dream! You almost harmed the eldest son of the Hou family. Do you really think you can escape the blame?"

Gu Ruanruan was really panicked: "What do you mean?! Didn't you say it's tonight? What are you doing here now?"

The secret guard mercilessly captured the person from the torture chamber——

"You are a concubine of the Hou family. Do you still need to pick a date when the Marquis and his wife want to deal with you?! The Marquis is in a bad mood today, so he needs to deal with it in advance."

Gu Ruanruan went crazy when he heard this and struggled desperately!

"No, he can't do this. I am the concubine given by the emperor. He can't handle it privately!"

"Also, why doesn't he keep his word?! It was promised tonight! It's tonight!!"

But no one paid attention to Gu Ruanruan's struggle.

She hadn't eaten much in the past few days and had no strength at all. The secret guard took her out of the torture chamber without any effort and escorted her to the front yard.

In the entire front yard, all the servants in the mansion have been called over.

They stood in rows and watched. When Gu Ruanruan arrived, Xiao Yanlin looked at him, and the secret guard took action and blocked Gu Ruanruan's mouth.

Gu Ruanruan could only howl, but could not utter any meaningful syllables.

And Xiao Yanlin finally said his first words after arriving here.

"Let me tell you some good news first. My wife is pregnant with the eldest son of the Hou family. Some people must have guessed it. Today I will announce the good news. From today on, everything in the Hou family will focus on my wife."

The congratulations of the servants suddenly sounded in the yard.

Only when all the voices fell did Xiao Yanlin say the second sentence of the day.

"This is supposed to be a happy event, but there is someone in the house who is blind and tries to kill the child in Madam's arms. This person will be punished today."

These words should not have been said by a person of Xiao Yanlin's status. It would be best for the old housekeeper to do it for him.

But Xiao Yanlin chose to speak on his own.

He just wants to give everyone present a shock, letting them know who is in charge of this palace, and who is the person they want to fawn over and protect in this palace!

After Xiao Yan finished speaking, the rag from Gu Ruanruan's mouth was taken out, and she immediately let out a sharp roar.

"Xiao Yanlin! Gu Baiyu! How dare you! How dare you! Just wait until the second master calls the second prince. I want you to look good!"

This is more like a bluff, and no one will listen to it.

Two secret guards held her up, one on the left and the other on the right, and tied her to the execution bench.

Her hands and feet were tied tightly, and her back was facing the sky. Her whole body was like an animal on a chopping board, ready to be eaten by a mermaid.

The Hou Mansion has servants who are dedicated to executing the most evil servants.

The two men were stout and held up wooden sticks taller than men, which were the torture instruments used to execute cane punishments.

Gu Ruanruan didn't really feel scared until he was tied to the torture bench, and he burst into tears for a while.

Looking straight at Gu Baiyu: "Sister! Sister, I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong! I was obsessed this time, I was forced by the second prince!"

"Sister, please, please forgive me this time. As long as you forgive me this time, I swear I will never appear in front of you again, sister! Have you forgotten the friendship we grew up with? ?”

Gu Baiyu shook his head and looked at her with pity.

"I have never forgotten the friendship between us. It was you who forgot first..."
