Chapter 458 The Female Supporting Character Who Was Reborn as a Female Cannon Fodder 3
Gu Yuexue looked at the mother and daughter in front of the bed, especially the woman who looked even more frail and pale after falling into the water. Her eyes flickered slightly, but her face was filled with deep worry. She stepped forward with tears in her eyes:
"Third sister, it's all my fault. If I hadn't dragged you out to enjoy the snow, this wouldn't have happened."
"Mother, just punish your daughter. It's all her fault." Gu Yuexue glanced at Gu Yuexi, pursed her lips, and then took all the responsibility on herself.
Dongmei, the maidservant beside Gu Yuexue, was not convinced when she heard this: "Miss, how can it be your fault? It was obviously Qiaoyun, the maidservant beside the eldest lady. If she hadn't been startled, how could the third lady have fallen into the pond?"
The eldest lady Gu Yuexi who was mentioned glanced at Gu Yuexue imperceptibly and quickly. She felt angry. How could she be so stupid? In her previous life, she always treated Gu Yuexue as a good sister. She seemed to be doing things for her good every time, but in fact, she was just trying to flatter her.
Gu Yuexi did not refute, but stepped forward, bowed, and nodded helplessly:
"Mother, Third Sister, it's my fault. I didn't manage the maid well, so Third Sister suffered."
Gu's face looked very unhappy. Her chest was full of anger at the moment. When she wanted to scold someone, she felt softness on the back of her hand.
She lowered her head and met her daughter's watery eyes.
"Mother."
Sheng Huan noticed the arrival of Gu's father, Gu Shangshu, outside the house. Thinking of the original owner in the original story who was in a coma with a high fever, Gu was panicked and took her anger out on Gu Yuexi and scolded her. Gu Yuexi, the black lotus, admitted her mistake with humiliation on her face, but secretly sent someone to call Gu Shangshu over. Then, after knowing the arrival of Gu Shangshu from the maid's secret signal, she knelt on the ground and kowtowed until her head was bleeding.
This scene happened to be seen by Minister Gu. From then on, Minister Gu gradually started to feel estranged from Gu, thinking that she was vicious and harsh to the legitimate daughter. Naturally, Sheng Huan wanted to stop this from happening.
So she said: "When my daughter fell into the water, she heard Qiao Yun shouting that there was a snake. Big sister didn't know anything about it, and we were all scared."
As Sheng Huan spoke, he frowned as if he was in some discomfort.
"Mother, the appearance of that snake was strange. I know you want to vent your anger for me, but mother, we can't wrongly accuse anyone."
"Okay, okay, mother will listen to Tang'er. Tang'er, do you have a headache?" Gu didn't care about Gu Yuexi anymore. She touched Sheng Huan's forehead in fear and said, "Someone, go call the doctor!"
While everyone was busy, no one noticed that Sheng Huan secretly wrote two words on Gu's hand. After Gu read it, his face turned grim.
Sheng Huan seemed unable to bear it and fainted.
Soon, Minister Gu also strode in from outside and asked the doctor to take his pulse quickly.
When Gu saw Minister Gu, tears welled up in her eyes: "Master."
"Don't worry, Runiang, Tang'er will be fine." Minister Gu hugged Gu and whispered to comfort her.
"Father."
Gu Yuexi and Gu Yuexue came over, well-behaved, with worry and admiration for their father in their eyes.
Minister Gu waved his hand and said, "Tang'er needs to rest here. You guys were also frightened today. Go back and rest."
Gu Yuexi and Gu Yuexue could only bow their heads: "Yes."
When the two were about to walk out of the house, Minister Gu looked at his daughter's face, which was as pale as paper, on the bed. His daughter had always been raised in pampered condition and had never suffered such a hardship. Hearing Gu's faint sobs, he felt very uncomfortable.
"Yuexi." He thought of what he had just heard and suddenly said, "No matter what, your maid is not steady and will never be able to do anything in the future. She will only be a nuisance if she stays with you. Father will make the decision for you and remove her from your yard."
Hearing this, Gu felt less angry.
Gu Yuexi paused, turned around and bowed: "Thank you, father."
Gu Yuexi was not surprised that Qiao Yun would be dealt with. After all, Qiao Yun was not the only restless maid in her yard. Qiao Yun was just bewitched by Fu'er, the slutty maid who seduced Wang Yeling in her previous life.
It's a pity that she originally wanted to use Gu's hand to get rid of these people. Gu touched the people in her yard, and her grandmother would definitely not agree. If she added fuel to the fire in the future, she would have the opportunity to get the housekeeper's power in the mansion.
But she never expected that this matter was done by her father himself. Her father never interfered in the affairs of the rear house easily, but now he would take action for Gu Yuetang. She gritted her teeth. In her previous life, she was proud and regarded herself as the eldest sister. She never competed for her father's favor, but instead benefited her stepmother and others, making her isolated and helpless in her previous life. In this life, she would not push her father away.
Gu Yuexi was lost in thought and didn't notice that Gu Yuexue beside her moved her fingers.
Sheng Huan did discover it. After all, Gu Yuexue was hidden very deeply in the original novel. She was the truly vicious second female lead. In her previous life, she had fooled the heroine and the original owner, and nothing happened to her.
Gu Yuexi died early in his previous life, so he definitely didn’t know that the last successor of the Prince of Anguo, Wang Yeling, was Gu Yuexue.

After the person left, the doctor finished taking the patient's pulse. He walked forward, bowed, and looked solemn.
"My lord, ma'am."
"Doctor Meng, how is my daughter?" When Minister Gu saw that his face looked strange, his heart skipped a beat and he sent away all the servants in the room.
Gu was so scared that she grabbed her father's hand.
Doctor Meng sighed: "My lord, Madam. Women are afraid of cold, and Miss San was caught in a cold during her childhood. If the cold air enters her body, she may have cold hands and feet in the future if she is not properly taken care of. In the worst case, it may affect her offspring..."
When Gu heard this, she felt like the sky was falling. Her face changed as she looked at her daughter on the bed. She didn't know whether she heard it or not. She tried to keep calm.
"Doctor, no matter what, you have to take good care of my daughter's body!"
Minister Gu also had a serious look on his face: "Doctor Meng, no matter what medicine it is or what you need to pay attention to, just tell me."
"Don't worry, my lord and madam. Miss Third is still in good health. She will be well in half a year. I will go down and prescribe some medicine."
Mrs. Gu and Minister Gu finally nodded in relief.
"Thank you, Doctor Meng."
As soon as Doctor Meng left, Gu could no longer hide the anger on her face and she started crying as she spoke.
"Master, the materials used to build our house are solid. I don't believe that the railings would break so easily. And the pond is frozen, how could it break so easily? Master, I don't believe it was all an accident."
Minister Gu's face darkened: "I'll send someone to check."
Minister Gu kept his word and left immediately.
After seeing Minister Gu off, Gu returned to the bedside. She leaned over and picked up Sheng Huan.
"Tang'er."
Sheng Huan struggled to open his eyelids: "Mother."
Gu touched her daughter's head and said, "Tang'er is the pearl in my hand. I will not let anything happen to you. I will ask the doctor to take good care of you."
Since I need to take care of my body, I can postpone the matter of choosing a son-in-law for my daughter and look at other people. When a woman gets married, she must not make a mistake in her second reincarnation.
Sheng Huan nodded tiredly. She didn't want to get married now, so she might as well use this opportunity to recuperate. After all, the original owner's wish was to find a true lover, so she could choose a good candidate during this time and there was no need to rush.
Gu stroked her daughter's hair lovingly, and lowered her voice as she thought of something.
"Tang'er, the words you wrote on your mother's hand just now, you said you fell into the pond, was someone pushing you?"
Sheng Huan nodded: "Mother, I don't know who pushed me. After all, my elder sister and my second sister were too close to me at that time. I didn't say it just now because I have no evidence."
Gu Yuexi has the old lady's support behind her, and there is no evidence to prove that it was her. The old lady was the first one to show her displeasure to Gu. Sheng Huan's action just now was to let Gu know that she was fine and was just pretending to be unconscious, so that she would calm down and not be controlled by anger. In the end, she would not be provoked and let the enemy easily clean up the mess and lose the evidence.
As for why I’m not sure who it is, it’s of course because neither of them is innocent. We have to be on guard against them. We have to keep some idea in Gu’s mind.
"Good Tang'er, I'm sorry for the hardship you have suffered."
