Chapter 139 I'll Go Vent His Anger
Shen Zhi opened the door and waved to Lian Bo, who was looking distraught outside, motioning him to come over.
But Lian Bo felt as if the sky had fallen and did not even notice that Shen Zhi was calling him.
Shen Zhi knew that the boy must have misunderstood that his wife was in trouble, so he hurriedly shouted, "Lian Bo, here, your wife is here."
Lian Bo's heart tightened. Ruyi was back too? He quickly ran towards Shen Zhi and followed her into the house. He saw Ruyi lying on the bed, motionless, with scars all over her body that were shocking. Lian Bo's eyes turned red with heartache.
"Don't worry, her life is saved. But when Manager Zhou from Sifang Dental Clinic went to the Gu family to negotiate, Ruyi had already been thrown into a mass grave by the Fourth Miss Gu. When Ding Er went to the mass grave to find her, she was already half dead. The Fourth Miss Gu was so disregarding of human life, God will not let her off." Shen Zhi was filled with resentment when he thought of the domineering face of the Fourth Miss Gu.
Lian Bo was delighted to learn that Ruyi was still alive and her life was saved, but he immediately heard that Miss Gu had thrown her into a mass grave, and hatred instantly ignited in his heart.
Shen Zhi walked over and said, "You just need to wait patiently. Miss Gu Si will soon get her retribution. I'll give you ten days off. Take good care of Ruyi."
Shen Zhi left after she finished speaking. What she didn't know was that these workers had undergone earth-shaking changes in their hearts. They were even more grateful to Shen Zhi and expressed their willingness to work for him. From then on, Shen Zhi not only won the respect and trust of these workers, but also established his own prestige in Baiyun Villa.
However, Shen Zhi also communicated with these workers. After all, Baiyun Villa belonged to the emperor, and their families were bought by Shen Zhi himself, so it was inconvenient to settle them here. They could only settle in Shen Zhi's own Bibo Villa. Fortunately, the two villas were close to each other, so they could visit their families during their rest time. Shen Zhi arranged four days off a month for them. Everyone was very happy. It was the first time they met such a thoughtful boss. They agreed with Shen Zhi's arrangement very much.
Shen Zhi brought everyone to Bibo Villa and asked Wang Hu to arrange suitable tasks for them. Wang Hu was also very excited to see everyone. These people were all servants of the Meng family. When the Meng family suffered a disaster, the servants were all sold out. Now everyone is reunited. The boss is kind and saved the families of these servants from being torn apart.
Shen Zhi took out a silver note and handed it to Wang Hu, saying, "Uncle Wang, take this money and buy some daily necessities for them. There is no place for more people to live. Gather some people to build some small courtyards on the empty land over there. When the affairs of Baiyun Villa are settled, the thirty-seven people will come and live with their families. You can build a small courtyard for each family."
Everyone was moved to tears and immediately knelt down to thank Shen Zhi.
After coming out of Bibo Villa, Shen Zhi curled his lips. It was time to meet Fourth Miss Gu and teach her a lesson.
As night falls, the Gu Mansion is brightly lit.
Fourth Miss Gu just had another big fight with the head of the Gu family. The head of the family had already vomited blood this morning, and now he finally looked better after taking medicine, but he fainted again. The housekeeper immediately sent someone to invite the doctor, and the servants came in and out with serious faces. I'm afraid the old man won't make it this time.
The old man's children and grandchildren were all exiled to Zhangzhou, and there was no one around him who could take charge.
Minister Gu in the capital and the Gu family in Qingzhou are relatives, and the old master's son is also under the care of Minister Gu, so when the Shangshu Mansion in the capital entrusted Miss Gu Si to him, he agreed without hesitation. Who knew that Miss Gu Si was actually a troublemaker. It is said that she pushed the baby of the Shangshu's favorite concubine away in the Shangshu Mansion, and Minister Gu was furious and sent her back to her ancestral home.
All the servants of the Gu family had suffered at the hands of the Fourth Miss Gu, and there were complaints throughout the mansion. The Fourth Miss Gu not only made trouble in the mansion, but also often went out to rob and plunder under the banner of the Gu Mansion or the Shangshu Mansion. She was simply notorious in this area. Old Master Gu had been kind and generous all his life, but in the end, his reputation was ruined by the Fourth Miss Gu. Now he was so angry with her that he almost died.
When Shen Zhi arrived at Gu's house under the cover of night, the housekeeper was just seeing the doctor off with a heavy heart.
"Butler Lin, you should notify the old man's son. The old man is so angry this time that he may not be able to hold on any longer." The doctor shook his head and left. He was fine when I checked his pulse two months ago.
Shen Zhi heard what the housekeeper said and slipped into the house of the old man of the Gu family. According to the housekeeper Zhao, the old man was a good man. He returned the indentures of the ten servants to him without saying anything, and even refused to accept the refund. He also said that these servants had suffered a lot when they came to his house. Since the old man gave her convenience in this matter, she was willing to make a good relationship and save his life.
Shen Zhi checked the pulse of Old Master Gu and found that he was indeed so angry. The Fourth Miss Gu was really a troublemaker. She put a pill under Old Master Gu's tongue, and Old Master Gu's face became rosy at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his breathing became smoother.
After sending the doctor back, the housekeeper saw a strange woman standing in front of the old man's bed. He immediately became alarmed and was about to call for help. But the woman smiled and turned around and said, "Old Master Gu is fine now. I'll go and vent his anger for him." After that, Shen Zhi walked away in a swagger, and before leaving, he didn't forget to ask where the fourth Miss Gu lived. The housekeeper didn't react for a while, but somehow pointed her in the direction. When he saw Shen Zhi disappear in the night, he reacted and hurried to the old man's window. The old man's face looked much better, his breathing was even, and even his frown was smoothed.
Shen Zhi successfully avoided the crowd and came to Miss Gu Si's Qinghe Garden. Tsk tsk tsk, living under someone else's roof and naming a courtyard after oneself. Miss Gu Si's full name is Gu Qinghe. She also learned to be pretentious and ordered people to dig a pond in her courtyard and plant lotus. However, she was only responsible for giving orders for this laborious and costly task, and she could not take out a single penny. If the housekeeper had any objection, she would go to Old Master Gu and make a scene. The old master just paid for peace and quiet and let her do whatever she wanted.
At this moment, Gu Qinghe was ready to rest, waiting for the maid to bring her some milk so she could drink it before going to sleep. Suddenly, a strong wind blew outside, and the windows were blown open with a crackling sound. The candles on the candlesticks were also blown out by the wind, and the whole room fell into darkness.
Gu Qinghe was a little scared. She had just asked the maid to go to the kitchen to bring her milk. She was used to drinking a bowl of milk before going to bed every day. There were no other maids around her. The old master had just taken away the ten maids she had bought during the day, and he had not had time to buy new maids yet.
Suddenly a gust of wind blew over.
