The mistress of the Hou family worked herself to death, and she did not serve after her rebirth

Chu Xingzhou pointed at Gu Yu as he spoke, and kept telling his friends around him that Gu Yu was a fool and a lunatic, but his friends were frightened by Chu Xingzhou's act of stabbing the puppy, and their faces turned pale and they didn't say a word.

Chu Xingzhou still thought that everyone didn't believe him, so in order to make everyone believe him, he decided to provoke Gu Yu again.

Seeing Gu Yu stroking the little white dog in his arms, which was not yet dead, and then turning around to leave with the little white dog in his arms, Chu Xingzhou picked up the dagger that fell on the ground and stabbed the little white dog in Gu Yu's arms.

Gu Yu was startled and hurriedly dodged while holding the little white dog, but Chu Xingzhou was determined to provoke Gu Yu. When he saw Gu Yu dodging, he rushed over again.

Gu Yu was both scared and anxious. He wanted to protect the little white dog, but was also afraid of getting stabbed.

But he was no match for the tall and strong Chu Xingzhou. Seeing that he was about to be stabbed by Chu Xingzhou, he could only lower his body slightly while holding the little white dog to avoid him. When Chu Xingzhou missed, he quickly ran forward with the little white dog in his arms. Seeing that Chu Xingzhou was about to catch up with him, he could only pick up stones on the ground and throw them at Chu Xingzhou.

A stone hit Chu Xingzhou's hand, and he felt pain, and the dagger in his hand fell to the ground. Another stone hit Chu Xingzhou's knee, and Chu Xingzhou fell to his knees in pain. When he fell to the ground, his belly was facing the dagger. Chu Xingzhou screamed, and then fell to the ground, with blood oozing from his body.

The little friends were all scared and shouted, "A idiot killed someone," and ran home.

Gu Yu was also startled.

He didn't know what was going on. He just didn't want to be caught up by Chu Xingzhou. He casually threw two stones and ran a few steps. Then he heard a scream behind him. He turned around and saw Chu Xingzhou lying in a pool of blood. Then everyone said he had killed someone.

……

When Pei Jiuniang found Gu Yu, he was huddled up and shivering with cold while holding the little white dog.

The little white dog in his arms was covered in blood, soaking Gu Yu's newly bought robe. His hands and even his face were covered in blood.

He won't respond even when you talk to him.

Pei Jiuniang wanted to take the little white dog to check it out, and Gu Yu just reacted a little, holding the little white dog tightly with both hands and not letting go.

Perhaps because he used too much force, the little white dog, which was not yet dead, let out a slight cry.

"Brother Yu, Xiaobai might still be saved. Can you find a doctor for me?"

Pei Jiuniang comforted Yu Ge softly.

Yu Ge's dark eyes were stunned for a moment, and then he loosened his hand little by little. Pei Jiu Niang immediately picked up Xiao Bai and handed him to Cai Feng, urging, "Hurry up and let someone take a look."

Brother Yu seemed to want to join in, but was stopped by Pei Jiuniang, "Brother Yu, what happened?"

Pei Jiuniang's intuition told her that something bad must have happened to Brother Yu. She took a quick look just now and found that Xiaobai's wounds were caused by being pierced by a sharp weapon.

Using a knife in front of the child lets her know that I will never let her off easily.

She checked Brother Yu and found no injuries. She was relieved to think that the blood was from Xiaobai. Seeing that the child seemed to be frightened and stimulated, she hugged him in her arms and comforted him softly, "It's okay, it's okay. Mother is here. When you want to speak, tell her."

"Ah, ah, kill, I didn't."

Maybe it was Pei Jiuniang's words that made Brother Yu trust him, so he actually spoke. But before Pei Jiuniang could figure out what was going on, someone came hurriedly to report.

"Madam, it's bad. You should go to the old lady's yard immediately. The aunt is back with the yamen runners. They say they want to arrest the prince. They say he has killed someone..."

"What? How?"

Pei Jiuniang reacted and quickly glanced at Brother Yu. She saw Brother Yu shaking his head hurriedly, unable to speak, but looking aggrieved and scared.

The person who came was from Liu's side. Seeing Brother Yu like this, he couldn't help but said viciously, "Now you know you're scared. You're so young, but you dare to use a knife. How can you be so vicious?"

"Shut up."

Pei Jiuniang grabbed Brother Yu who wanted to run away, scolded the person who came, then squatted down and hugged Brother Yu's shaking body, "Don't be afraid, I believe you, come with me to your grandmother's yard, let's talk it out, mother won't let anyone bully you, okay?"

Brother Yu said nothing, lowered his head, trembling all over, and pretended to run away. In the end, Pei Jiuniang hugged him tightly and shouted, "Aniang swears that I will not let anyone frame you. Brother Yu, let's make things clear. You go and explain it to Aniang, and leave the rest to Aniang, okay?!"

"I, no, I, don't know..."

Brother Yu seldom speaks, and when he does, he can only utter intermittent words. If you don't listen carefully, you can't understand him at all.

He seemed very anxious and wanted to explain clearly, but he was too scared. He couldn't explain clearly to begin with, and this made it even more difficult.

He was so anxious that he felt wronged and uncomfortable. He thought his mother must have lied to him. No one believed him, and no one had ever believed him.

In his dreams, his mother never believed him.

"Are you trying to say that you didn't, and you don't know what happened?"

Pei Jiuniang pieced together the few words that came out of his mouth.

Gu Yu opened his eyes wide, with tears in his eyes, and looked at Pei Jiuniang in disbelief. After a long time, he nodded vigorously in response to Pei Jiuniang's hope.

"Very good, you will cooperate with Auntie later. If you don't want to talk, Auntie will help you. Just nod and shake your head, okay?"

"Yes, ah, mother."

Pei Jiuniang didn't expect Brother Yu to call her, and she excitedly hugged Brother Yu in her arms.

When she carried Brother Yu to Liu's yard, Gu Lanzhi had been crying for a long time. Liu was also furious. Seeing Pei Jiuniang holding Gu Yu, Gu Lanzhi grabbed the vase and threw it at the mother and son. Pei Jiuniang dodged quickly and the vase hit the pillar and broke into pieces.

Mrs. Liu watched her daughter smash her favorite vase into pieces, feeling distressed and helpless. She squinted her eyes and pointed at Pei Jiuniang and Gu Yu and cursed them.

"You raised a good child. I thought he was stupid before, but I didn't expect he was a troublemaker. He even dared to use a knife to kill people. Quick, arrest this murderer. Killing someone means paying with your life. It is only right."

"Yes, arrest that little bastard and make him pay for my son's life."

Gu Lanzhi was also shouting at the side.

Hearing about the death penalty, Pei Jiuniang was also shocked, "Dead?"

"Who are you cursing? Pei Jiuniang, could it be that you instigated your son to harm my Zhou'er?"

Gu Lanzhi didn't like Pei Jiuniang in the first place, and now she wanted to point at Pei Jiuniang's nose and curse her.

"Then since he didn't die, how come it became a murder for a life?"

Pei Jiuniang breathed a sigh of relief, but couldn't help but retort.

"Why, you're still looking forward to it, Pei Jiuniang, I really didn't see it before..."

"Okay, seeing as you still have the energy to argue here, I guess Chu Xingzhou is fine!"

"That's because my Zhou'er is lucky, but that can't cover up the fact that your son wants to harm my Zhou'er, Pei Jiuniang, I advise you not to protect him. He knows how to kill at such a young age, and he will surely bring harm to the entire family when he grows up."

"That's none of my business." Pei Jiuniang held Yu Ge's shaking hand, walked to a chair beside her, picked up Yu Ge and sat down.

This scene stimulated Liu and Gu Lanzhi.

"Mrs. Pei Jiu, do you really want to just let it go like this?"

"I didn't say anything, but right now this is just your one-sided story. You said that my brother Yu killed someone, so can't my brother Yu defend himself?"

"You can't make excuses. Everyone saw it on the street. What's there to argue about? If you want to favor him, just say so. After all, no matter how stupid he is, he is still your own child."

"Then I thank you very much, auntie. If that's the case, then let me explain a few words. You said that my brother Yu killed someone, so there must be a reason? And the murder weapon? And the witnesses and evidence?"

Pei Jiuniang said this and glanced at the yamen runner who came with her.

The yamen runner received Pei Jiuniang's gaze and bowed hastily, "Greetings, Madam Hou."

"No need to be polite. You are here for official business. Just tell me how you determined that it was my brother Yu who committed the crime. If you can't come up with a reasonable excuse and you come to my mansion to slander the reputation of my prince, I won't allow it."

Hearing this, the two yamen runners were somewhat embarrassed.

Gu Lanzhi was furious, "What do you mean? My Zhou'er was injured and he said it was your son who did it. How could he slander you?"

"May I ask what the murder weapon was? Why did my son attack your Zhou'er?"

"This……"

Gu Lanzhi hesitated. She had just returned home when she heard that her son was injured. It was Gu Yu who did it. After asking a doctor to check that Zhou'er was not seriously injured, she hurried to the Marquis' Mansion to seek an explanation.

"Since you can't explain it, it seems that even my aunt hasn't figured it out. As for the two yamen runners, I think my aunt was eager to arrest the person and called them directly."

"Yes, but my Zhou'er..."

"What a joke! Without a trial or a clear investigation, you directly convict the prince of the Marquisate and want to arrest my prince and put him in jail. Gu Lanzhi, are you trying to bully my Marquisate?!"

Pei Jiuniang's expression suddenly changed, and she slammed the table hard while speaking.
