"I heard that after Sister Cai was kicked out, she just said that she did it according to Madam Gu's wishes. The expenses in the mansion were high, and she just wanted to save a little. This made the lady very angry, and she deducted Madam Gu's monthly salary for half a year."

Siqin felt very happy after hearing this, and looked at Xu Yixing with admiration. It turned out that what the young lady said before was not just to comfort her, the young lady really had a way to cure her!

After hearing the good news, Xu Yixing drove Siqin and Sihua away and asked them to go back and rest. However, Siqin was afraid that her illness would relapse, so she insisted on staying in the room.

The two of them were still like when they were kids, Siqin slept on the outside and Xu Yixing slept on the inside. Of course, this was Xu Yiyan's childhood, so Xu Yixing was still a little uncomfortable with it.

"Miss, how do you know that Mrs. Cai will not tell Mrs. Gu?"

"You don't know, that Cai was originally married, and then happened to be favored by Gu's youngest son. For her, her son cried and made a fuss at home for several days, and even went on a hunger strike to force Gu to marry her."

"Ah? So she doesn't want to marry Gu, then what about her original marriage?"

"That man is dead."

"what?"

"He died of illness, but that illness was deliberately given to him by someone. Later, Cai became a widow, and Mrs. Gu used all her tricks to get her married. Therefore, she hated Mrs. Gu very much and would not talk to her much."

Cai had hated Mrs. Gu for a long time. She had always been suspicious that her ex-husband was killed by Mrs. Gu, but she had no way to verify it and could only deal with it in this perfunctory manner.

Just like what happened today, although telling the truth could exonerate Mrs. Cai and Mrs. Gu, she would never tell it, and would even deliberately put the blame on Mrs. Gu. She had to suffer this loss even if she didn't want to!

"Intentionally? Could it be that Mrs. Gu did it?"

"It's hard to say without evidence." Xu Yixing lied with his eyes open, but there was actually evidence.

At the beginning, Gu Po had someone send unclean food to Cai's fiancé, causing him to get sick. That person was a little maid in the mansion. After the incident, she drove the maid out. Although she was unwilling, she did not dare to directly correct Gu Po.

As for Xu Yixing, he only knew about this incident when he saw the poor girl who was almost a beggar on the street.

But she didn't take it seriously at the time, and asked Si Wen to give her some money and send her away. After all, it was a shameful thing in the mansion, and she didn't want her father to get angry if he knew about it.

Xu Yixing said that there was no evidence now because she didn't know where the little girl had gone, or even whether she was alive or not. And more importantly, even if she brought the little girl here to testify against Gu Pozi, it would be useless, as Gu would definitely protect her.

So she was waiting, waiting to see the shadow guards recognize their master, so that she could ask them to help find the little maid; at the same time, she was also waiting, waiting for someone to appear who would definitely bring down Mrs. Gu and make the Gu family unable to be partial.

He will definitely come before the New Year.

Before that, what she had to do was to drive as much distance between the Gu family and Mrs. Gu as possible, so that the trust between them would become less and less, so that when the time came to get rid of Mrs. Gu, it would be more direct and refreshing.

Maybe there will come a day when Mrs. Gu will reveal some of the Gu family's privacy in order to save her own life. That would be interesting.

With someone by his side, Xu Yixing couldn't sleep well. He always felt that the few days he spent with his grandson Youyou had left him with an endless shadow.

Unable to sleep, Xu Yixing began to tell Siqin his original plan:

"Siqin, actually my original plan was just to make Gu lose face when she went out one day, because she values ​​face so much. I didn't expect that the effect of this plan would be much better than I thought."

Siqin turned sideways and said, "But it's just reducing the amount of concentrated feed, how can it be so serious?"

Siqin doesn't understand horses, but Xu Yixing does.

"Official ceremonial horses are the worst. They are useless except for their good looks. They can't run fast or walk far, and they are extremely fragile. If they don't eat or drink enough, they will get sick or even die.

Look at how many horses we have at home. When did Dad and Brother ever use those few? Only Gu, who values ​​appearance, insists on keeping four horses at home, as if she is afraid that others will lose face."

"So that's how it is. Young lady knows a lot."

“I had originally thought that I might let other noble ladies see Gu’s sick horse this time, but who knew that even God would help me. It rained and it was cold in the mountains. Wouldn’t the horse have diarrhea?

As long as she pursues the responsibility, she will definitely have a disagreement with Mrs. Gu, and our goal will be achieved. Haha, it’s a pity that no one in the mountain saw her miserable state today, otherwise she would not dare to go out for some days. "

"Young lady is very scheming. This can be considered as a lesson for Mrs. Gu." Siqin was happy and spoke excitedly. Xu Yixing was also happy to hear it.

"This is just the beginning. What we need to do is to fight back in kind."

What is a tooth for a tooth? You killed Yi Yan's mother, so I will kill you too.

In fact, there is a shortcut. As long as the shadow guard recognizes the master, killing Gu Pozi will be simple, right? But Xu Yixing doesn't want to be so direct.

Thinking back to what Nanny Bai said, he really lost all the identities he could rely on. At that time, Nanny Bai thought that the Shadow Guard would become his new reliance, but now Xu Yixing can only think further.

What if the shadow guards betrayed him one day? What if his enemy was so powerful that even the nine shadow guards couldn't kill him? Who would he rely on at that time?

So she wanted to rely on herself, use her mind and seek success. Now she had a good chance to practice with Gu Pozi, and she would have to deal with the murderous enemy in the Sun Mansion in the future. Her troubles would only increase, not decrease. If she didn't become smarter quickly, she would be doomed.

"It's too late, Miss, go to sleep." Siqin really loves her young lady. She has been so cautious for so many years that even revenge for her mother can only be planned secretly. How difficult!

In an inconspicuous room outside the second gate of the Xu Mansion, Cai Shi used a small fire the size of a mung bean to sew clothes for herself. She had a smile on her face. Today was really a day worth being happy about.

Someone pushed the door open with a bang, bringing in a gust of damp and cold air.

Mrs. Gu threw down her umbrella, rushed to the table and slapped Cai in the face!

Cai covered her face and stood up with shame and humiliation: "Mother is here, if there is anything I haven't done well, please give me some advice."

"Little hoof! Who told you to reduce the expenses of the stables? I've told you many times that these horses are Madam's favorites. How dare you neglect them!"

Cai lowered her head, hiding her smile, and pretended to be terrified: "Mother... I'm sorry, I just thought that it's not easy for you to stay in the mansion... worrying about the affairs of this big family. I want to reduce the expenses. If the lady knows, she will say that you are frugal. I really didn't expect it to be like this!"
