Hearing the displeasure in the god's tone, He Zhen foresaw in her mind the possible fate of the Yang family.
When Gu Xingzhao heard from He Zhen that Yang Fang, who married the old man's granddaughter, actually had a concubine, he couldn't help but sneer.
Why do I remember that when Yang Fang went to the Lu family to propose marriage, he promised in front of the old man that he would never take a concubine in his life and would not let Lu Youtiao suffer any grievances?
At that time, the old man had already chosen Jiang Shao, the only son of Minister Jiang of the Ministry of Revenue, for his granddaughter. The two families had always had a good relationship and they had agreed on a date, and all that was left was a betrothal gift. However, Lu Youtiao said she wanted to marry Yang Fang.
The old man disagreed, but he loved his granddaughter, and his eldest son and son-in-law spoke well of him. Finally, when the Lu family saw that Yang Fang was honest and seemed sincere to Lu Youtiao, they agreed to the marriage. They even had an unpleasant argument with Minister Jiang over this, and the Jiang and Lu families stopped having any contact with each other.
Otherwise, with Yang Fang's wealth at the time, he couldn't even step into the Lu family's threshold, let alone marry a girl from the Lu family, let alone propose marriage.
In fact, let alone Gu Xingzhao, even He Zhen, who had just learned about this from the person who went to inquire about the news, was sighing and secretly cursing the Yang family for being inhumane.
I guess they thought that the Lu family had fallen and the girl from the Lu family had no one to rely on, so they bullied her like that. Unfortunately, they didn't calculate correctly, as there is still a god around.
He Zhen: "I heard that she was kept as a concubine outside for two years. Recently, she became pregnant and was taken to live in Yang Fang's mansion. A doctor was invited to see her. The fetus is already four months old."
When Gu Xingzhao heard this, he thought that if the Lu family knew about this, they would probably rush back to the capital and castrate Yang Fang.
Lu Youtiao has bad eyesight. She rejected the good family that the old man carefully selected for her and chose such a bastard.
He Zhen sighed, "I don't know what happened to Miss Lu. I didn't get any news at all."
On the bright side, people are just being controlled, and if the relationship is not harmonious, just give a divorce letter.
Think of the worst. If the Yang family doesn't behave like human beings, then they will be in great danger.
What He Zhen thought of was also what Gu Xingzhao thought of. It seems that he will not talk to the old man for the time being and will go to Yang Mansion to see what the situation is.
"Where is the Yang Mansion?"
He Zhen said, "When are you going to leave? Why don't I bring some people with me to lead the way for you?"
She thought that if Miss Lu was imprisoned, she could bring some help from the gods.
Gu Xingzhao thought about it and realized that he was just going to check the situation first. He needed a coordinate to be transferred over. If he brought people with him at this time, it would be a waste of time. "No, I'll go check the situation first."
He Zhen: "Then I will lead you. When you go in, I will wait for you outside the mansion."
Gu Xingzhao: "Okay, thank you for your help."
He Zhen was flattered, "You're welcome, this is what I should do."
In the evening, He Zhen went to Yang's house again. After arriving outside the house, he used a paper tube to inform Gu Xingzhao.
Gu Xingzhao immediately followed He Zhen's location and teleported over. Seeing that it was almost dark in the capital, he said, "You should go back first. It's not safe when it's getting dark."
After dealing with gods for a long time, He Zhen knew her character very well. Since she left on her own, it meant that she didn't need her help now.
"Then tell me if you need anything."
"good."
After watching He Zhen leave, Gu Xingzhao entered the Yang Mansion.
The Yang Mansion was very large. After walking around twice, she still couldn't find where Lu Youtiao was. Instead, when she passed the back kitchen, she heard two maids talking as they came out carrying food.
"I have to go and deliver food to Aunt Liang. I don't know how the girl is doing," the maid sighed.
Another maid was very nervous and looked around, "Shh - keep your voice down, don't let anyone hear it!"
"I just hid a steamed bun secretly. You just wait outside and I will quietly deliver it to the girl."
"Okay, then be careful."
After hearing what the two said, Gu Xingzhao thought for a while. Yang Fang didn't have any daughters or sisters. In the Yang Mansion, there were not many people who could be called "girls" by the master.
The "Liang Yi Niang" they were talking about should refer to the concubine that He Zhen mentioned, and the "Girl" might refer to Lu Youtiao?
Ordinary people should call her Madam, but these two little maids called her "Girl", maybe because Lu Youtiao brought her from the Lu family, so they called her that in private.
Gu Xingzhao guessed this and followed them immediately.
It seems that the Yang family thinks that the Lu family has no one, and treats their legitimately married wife so harshly that even the servants have to secretly hide the steamed buns for her.
Gu Xingzhao didn't dare to think about whether the old man would be so angry that he would die if he knew that his beloved granddaughter was treated like this.
Two maids brought the food to the candlelit courtyard. Gu Xingzhao was curious and followed in to take a look.
In the room, Aunt Liang was sitting at the table, with two maids serving her. The table was filled with rich meals. From Gu Xingzhao's angle, he could see her slightly bulging belly.
At this moment, her face was full of anger, and she held the soup spoon tightly in her hand, with her knuckles slightly turning white.
The air around them seemed to freeze because of her anger. The two trembling maids lowered their heads, not daring to make a sound.
Suddenly, the soup spoon was thrown to the ground and smashed into pieces. "You two bitches! How dare you disrespect me!"
Aunt Liang's voice was sharp and piercing, echoing throughout the entire courtyard. Gu Xingzhao plugged his ears with his fingers, looked at the concubine with disgust, and almost became deaf.
The two maids who brought the food were so scared that they knelt on the ground, their knees and legs hitting the broken porcelain pieces. The blood stained their clothes red. Their bodies were trembling, their heads were buried so low that they almost touched the cold ground, and their eyes were full of fear.
Aunt Liang put her hands on the table and stood up with the help of two maids behind her. She put one hand on her waist and deliberately stuck out her belly, as if to show off her status.
She walked up to the two maids, raised her hand, and threw it at one of them viciously. With a loud "bang", a red and swollen mark immediately appeared on the maid's face.
The maid was in so much pain that tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, but she didn't dare to cry out in pain. She just lay on the ground and kowtowed to Aunt Liang, crying, "I was wrong! Please forgive me, I won't dare to do it again!"
The maid next to her was trembling with fear.
They were the maids that the girl brought as a dowry from the Lu family. They had been serving the girl. But ever since the incident at the Lu family, the girl became ill due to worry. Not only did Yang Fang not hire a doctor, he also sold all the people in the girl's courtyard.
They never expected that Yang Fang, who seemed affectionate, would change his face and treat the girl so harshly. The Lu family was in trouble, and if he was afraid of being implicated, he could just divorce or divorce his wife, but he tortured the girl like this!
It was because their indentures were not in the Yang family and Yang Fangfa could not sell them that he sent them to the kitchen and did not allow them to see the girls.
It was clearly because of the Lu family that Yang Fang had the career he had today!
Now, people were still talking about Yang Fang's good reputation, saying that he treated his wife very well and did not abandon her even when his Yue family was in trouble. They were so angry that they wanted to spit on the face of the person who was talking nonsense.
