043 Deep House Compound Conspiracy
Dugumuyou turned around and looked at the door. After she made a sound, the movement outside suddenly stopped. She was thinking of going to check, and there was a swirling sound of clothes outside.
The lonely wood waited quietly. After a while, the door was pushed open. A cowardly figure of a maid appeared at the door. Her head tilted and looked in the direction of Dugumuyou. Her face was slightly pale, and even her eyes were timid, as if she had just been scared.
Dugumu frowned slightly, with displeasure in his eyes, and swept coldly at the maid in a rude tone.
"What are you doing sneaking at my door?"
The little maid was originally afraid. After stopping, she shrank her neck and looked down at the embroidered shoes on her feet. Hearing the sound of Dumu's impatient tapping on the table, she raised her head and whispered slightly.
"I and maidservants want to inform the young lady that there seems to be a quarrel in the main courtyard, which seems to be related to you..."
Dugumu looked at the little maid suspiciously. Although she couldn't name it, she had met before and was indeed a servant in this house. Dugu Muyou has a good memory and can't be wrong. I can't remember where he met him.
"Notification is just a notification. Why did you sneak around?"
Dugumuyou, who was born as a killer, asked at this point.
When the little maid heard Dugumuyou say this, her anxious eyes turned red, and she also cried in her voice.
"Miss seems to be busy, and the maidservant called the door outside... But no one should..." Du Gumu was stunned for a moment. Her reaction was very keen, but she didn't notice that someone was approaching just now. Was the little maid lying, or did she practice too seriously, so she didn't notice it?
Dugumuyou temporarily put down his doubts and asked the news brought by the little maid.
"You just said that there was a quarrel in the main courtyard, and it has something to do with me. What exactly is it?"
"I didn't know that the door of the main courtyard was closed. I just vaguely heard Miss Jiu's name, so I came to inform Miss Jiu." The little maid said here, as if she suddenly remembered, her eyes lit up, and then said, "Yes, madam is also there."
Dugumu took a look at the maid, and the other party lowered his head and looked extremely well-behaved and harmless.
Mrs. Liu went to the main courtyard? Previously, Duguzhong sent someone to find Dugu Qinglan, and it didn't last long, but after a while, the main courtyard quarreled, which was related to him...
Dumu was thinking, and the little maid turned her eyes and said, "I have brought the words, so I will leave first." After saying that, she turned around and was about to leave.
"Eh, wait."
Dugu Muyou stopped her and clasped the little maid's wrist as soon as he leaned forward.
"Who asked you to come to me?"
A trace of hesitation flashed in the little maid's eyes, and then said, "Yes... it's the lady who asked me to come."
Du Gumu smiled and said, "Is that right? Then you can go to the main courtyard with me."
"I won't go. I have something else to do..."
The little maid struggled slightly, but Dugumuyou held her wrist tightly with one hand and forcibly took her to the direction of the main courtyard without a doubt.
As the maid said, the main courtyard closed the door, and there were guards guarding the door. Seeing Dugumu coming, he consciously opened the door and let her in. As soon as Dugumu entered the yard, he heard a familiar sound from inside.
"Who doesn't know about her whole Jinnan? Such a useless thing has come out among the direct descendants of our family, which has left our face shameless for more than ten years. Is it such a well-known waste that now it has actually practiced its core skills? If this happens, won't you let others laugh? Other families are coming to laugh at our lonely family!"
The speaker is Zhao Xue, the third wife of Duguzhong. She relies on Duguzhong's favor and acts in a high profile. Her figure may appear everywhere in the clan. Coupled with that voice, she can't remember her.
Zhao Xue gave birth to three children. His eldest son, Dugu Haoyu, has ordinary cultivation qualifications and is still on the blue level. It is estimated that it will not become a climate in the future. Dugu Haoyu has no ambition and has no own opinions. He likes to follow his sister. She can do whatever she says. She is very obedient. The second child is Dugu Piao, who is Zhao Xue's favorite child. There is also a young son, Dugu Lengying, who is only six years old now.
The people in the courtyard are still arguing about something. Dugu Zhong said in a strong voice, "Didn't I already say that? Mu You was opened by a master, and now he can practice. Don't mention waste or something in the future.
"Even if she has opened up the meridians, she will not achieve anything in the future. After so many years, even if she can practice, she is still a useless person. How can she give her core skills? No matter how I begged, you refused to give the skills to our Haoyu. Forget it. He is not blessed, but now? Such a good piece of material can't get the core skills, but let that waste get it. I'm not convinced!"
Zhao Xue was sad and indignant. The corners of her eyes were red, and she wiped with a veil.
"Who said that Mu You is a waste person? She fully has the conditions to practice core skills."
Dugu Qinglan's quiet voice sounded in the courtyard, and even at this time, she did not perform excessively.
Zhao Xue didn't look at Dugu Qinglan. While wiping tears that she didn't know whether it existed, she said to Dugu Zhong, "It's not all you! Now in this house, even the descendants can point at me casually. I really have a hard life. I have been reborn as my daughter. After suffering so many crimes, I'm really sorry for her.
Dugumuyou walked to the lobby of the main courtyard and saw Zhao Xue inside at a glance. There was still a little boy standing behind her. At this time, he grabbed Zhao Xue's skirt, poked out a small head, and looked at Dugu Qinglan curiously.
Duguzhong opened his mouth with a little guilt on his face. He hesitated for a moment and then looked at Dugu Qinglan: "When the elders talk, don't interrupt. I have my own measure in this matter."
As soon as his words fell, the corners of Zhao Xue's mouth covered by a handkerchief were upturned. When Dugumuyou came in, he happened to see this scene. On the other side, a trace of embarrassment flashed on Liu Phan's face. Dugu Qinglan frowned and shook her mother's hand.
Liu Pian is the main room of Du Guzhong, and Zhao Xue is just a concubine. Originally, she had no condition to be arrogant in front of Liu Pian and Dugu Qinglan, but Du Guzhong was particularly good to her. It can be seen from Zhao Xue's birth of three children that she is quite favored by Duguzhong.
The people in the room soon noticed the arrival of Dugu Muyou. A middle-aged man who looked a little similar to Duguzhong smiled, and a look of watching the play flashed in his eyes. There was also some jokes in his voice, "Oh, the Lord has arrived."
This person is Dugu Zhong's eldest brother - Dugu Xiao.
Liupian quickly pulled Dugumuyou and asked in a low voice, "Why are you here?"
There was some worry and disapproval in her voice, and Dugu Qinglan beside her also showed the same expression.
Dugumuyou still pulled the little maid. At this time, the little maid's head could not be lower, like a fallen trumpet flower. Dugumu pulled his hand and brought the maid to the two of them.
"She said that she was ordered by your mother to inform me of the matter of the main hospital."
After listening to this, Liu Pian glanced at the maid and said in a low voice, "Why don't I remember telling you to do this?"
What happened here was against Dugu Muyou, but Liu Pian didn't intend to let Du Muyou appear at all and was pointed out by everyone. Who knew that this maid destroyed her plan and brought people here without authorization in her name.
The maid trembled. Liu was gentle, but she was not helpless. She also had a good way to discipline disobedient servants, depending on whether she wanted to do it or not. At present, Liu Pian has no time to pay attention to such a maid, but after the event, she must not have a good life.
Zhao Xue glanced at the maid and muttered in a voice that no one could hear: "Useless things!"
Dugu Lengying's eyes on her side suddenly lit up and ran in the direction of Dugu Muyou with a smile.
"Sister Youyou--"
The six-year-old boy rushed into Dugumu's arms, arched his head to her, wrinkled his pink face, and muttered, "I haven't seen you for many days. Where have you been? Don't bring a cold shadow."
Dugumuyou also smiled and stretched out his hand to rub his head. In my memory, this child has always been very attached to her, although I don't know why. Even if he is at peace with his mother Zhao Xue and Dugu, Mu You still has a good impression of Dugu Lengying.
"Cold Shadow, come back soon!"
Zhao Xuehan's face suddenly pulled away Dugu Lengying and scolded him as a little thing in his heart.
"I don't, I want to play with Sister Youyou!"
Dugu Lengying was reluctantly pulled away by his mother, and the boy's tender voice sounded in the hall.
"It's against you!" Zhao Xue taught a lesson and said to a woman beside him, "Ty the young master out. This is not a place for him to play."
The woman walked out with the struggling Dugu Lengying. When she arrived at the door, Dugu Lengying did not forget to turn around and shout, "Sister Youyou, Lengying will play with you next time..." Before she finished speaking, she was gone.
"It's just a child, why be so strict with him." Liu Piao Piao said when he saw this.
Zhao Xue looked at her disdainfully, "It's my child. I won't worry about how I discipline you."
"What did you say about this maid? I remember that she was from your yard, but now she is ambitious and bold, running to fake my news. Since you have no way of discipline, it's up to me to 't teach' her well.
The little maid looked at Zhao Xue tremblingly, her eyes were full of helplessness, but she did not dare to say anything.
"Whatever you want."
Zhao Xue looked at the maid in disgust. This thing can't be done well, so don't expect her to give her a good face.
"It's all done." Duguzhong waved his hand impatiently, "Whether it's a lesson or your son, go back and teach it slowly. Don't pile up here." The remaining light from the corner of Duguzhong's eyes glanced at Dugu Xiao, where the old god was there. His eldest brother was still waiting to see his good play.
"Master, there is no explanation about the skills yet." Zhao Xue said indomitable.
Duguzhong glanced at Duguxiao again and said, "Qinglan did the right thing. It's reasonable that Mu You can practice this core skill. So it's all right. Let's all break up."
Duguzhong's small action was seen by Dugu Muyou. Dugu Xiao was Duguzhong's eldest brother. Originally, he should have inherited the position of head of the family in the order of the eldest and young, but Duguzhong sat in this position with a higher cultivation than him. Dugu Xiao has always held a grudge and is eager for something to happen to Dugu Zhong so that he can seize the handle and attack. I'm afraid that Duguzhong is worried about this big brother now, so he wants to end this matter quickly.
However, seeing many people in this hall, I'm afraid it's not so easy to end.
Sure enough, Zhao Xue was shocked after listening to Duguzhong's words, tears flowed down, and cried on the spot.
