Chapter 11 The betrothal gifts are ready
Chun, Xia, Qiu and Dong were all stunned: "Miss, the Marquis' Mansion is so bullying, and you still want to marry a concubine for the prince? This..."

It’s too unfair.

Their young lady is the legitimate daughter of the general's mansion, so even the prince has to give her some face.

Now she has to humble herself and marry a concubine to the son of a poor marquis!
Their tears could not be held back and flowed down like a dam bursting.

"Silly girl."

Gu Nianchu whispered: "Listen to me..."

Nanny Tian stepped forward and ordered Xia He: "Xia He, apply more powder to the young lady."

So, Gu Nianchu went to Fushoutang with a pale face.

Madam Shen was stunned for a moment when she heard the report: "That bitch actually came. What a bitch. She was so stubborn for a whole day."

Nanny Li and Nanny Liu both advised the old lady not to let Gu Nianchu go just like that.

"Old Madam, this time Madam has caused such a big commotion. If you don't teach her a lesson, she will be in trouble in the future."

"Old Madam, you have been too kind over the years, which is why Madam dared to be so presumptuous. Let her set the rules first today."

Madam Shen thought about it and nodded: "We have to teach her a lesson. The Marquis's Mansion is not like the General's Mansion. There are no rules at all."

Old Madam Shen sent someone to invite Shen Jiao and Shen Ling over. She did not ask Gu Nianchu to come in, but asked her to wait outside.

Shen Jiao lived next to Fushou Hall and arrived soon. When she saw Gu Nianchu, she rushed over with her teeth bared. Nanny Tian and Dong Yu stepped forward to stop her: "What are you going to do, Third Miss?"

"Gu Nianchu, you bitch! How dare you? Just wait and see, I will let my brother divorce you!"

Shen Jiao yelled at Gu Nianchu at the top of her lungs, and Gu Nianchu coldly spat out two words: "Slap!"

These two words are simply Shen Jiao's nightmare.

When has the young lady, who was brought up in pampered condition, ever suffered such a punishment? After being slapped in the face yesterday, she felt pain, shame, annoyance, and was filled with anger.

"Gu Nianchu, you bitch, you still want to hit me? Don't you see where we are? Come here, take this bitch down and slap her in the face fifty times!"

Shen Jiao sternly ordered the maids and servants of Fu Shou Tang to take action. As soon as she finished her words, she received two heavy slaps on the face. She was so angry that she was fuming.

"Are you all dead? Hurry up and capture that bitch Gu Nianchu!"

Shen Jiao covered her swollen cheek and scolded the servants of Fu Shou Tang harshly. The servants of Fu Shou Tang surrounded her, but no one dared to take action first.

The people that Nanny Liu and Nanny Li brought back from Begonia Garden yesterday spoke highly of Gu Nianchu.

The most important thing is that they all know what kind of existence the Crown Prince's wife holds in the Marquis' Mansion.

If they really dare to listen to Shen Jiao and slap Gu Nianchu fifty times today, then when the General's Mansion comes to ask for an explanation, none of them will survive!
"Jiaojiao, stop messing around."

Shen Ling walked in and scolded Shen Jiao in a low voice. His voice was hoarse. He caught a cold yesterday after being thrown into the lake by Gu Nianchu's men, and his throat was hoarse today.

"Brother, how can you still protect this bitch Gu Nianchu? You..."

Shen Jiao stamped her feet in anger and her eyes turned red with grievance.

"Miss Third is disrespectful to the eldest sister-in-law and uses foul language. I, the eldest sister-in-law, am here to teach you the rules."

Gu Nianchu finished speaking in a cold voice. She did not even bow to Shen Ling and said lightly: "Didn't the prince ask me to arrange for you to marry a concubine? Are you not in a hurry anymore?" Shen Ling was full of anger in his heart, but he forced himself to hold it back.

"wait a moment."

Shen Ling called Shen Ling to go with him into the house to see Old Madam Shen. Shen Jiao came in and complained. Old Madam Shen could hear the noise outside clearly from inside. She hugged Shen Jiao and comforted her like a dear daughter.

"Ling'er, we can't let the Gu family be so arrogant."

Old Madam Shen warned Shen Ling in a low voice, and Shen Ling responded, "Yes, mother is right, but the most important thing now is to let Yan'er enter the mansion. I know that mother and sister were wronged yesterday. In the future, my son will naturally let Gu's pay back with interest."

"Gu just said that she came here to marry Yan'er. Please mother and sister be patient for a few days."

The mother and her two sons discussed it for a while before letting Gu Nianchu come in to pay their respects to the old lady.

Gu Nianchu bowed perfunctorily. Old Madam Shen and Shen Jiao were about to get angry, but Shen Ling spoke up in advance, "Madam is not feeling well. Please come and sit down."

Old Madam Shen and Shen Jiao had no choice but to give up and watch Gu Nianchu sit down.

"Gu, is the betrothal gift ready?"

Old Madam Shen suppressed her displeasure and asked Gu Nianchu, who replied, "Don't worry, mother. Your daughter-in-law will go and propose marriage to the prince today."

Gu Nianchu was so straightforward that Old Madam Shen couldn't help but look at Shen Ling, and both of them had doubts in their eyes.

"Gu, since you are not feeling well, please do not work so hard. You are also right. It is indeed difficult for you to handle this matter. Since you have already prepared the betrothal gifts, please send them to Fushou Hall. Mother will handle this matter."

Old Madam Shen was afraid that Gu Nianchu would do something strange, so she would not let Gu Nianchu do these things.

"Mother, the betrothal gifts are now in the warehouse. If we move them to Fushou Hall, you will have to move them back if you don't like them. It would be better for you to go to the warehouse first to take a look." Gu Nianchu called Nanny Tian over: "Mammy, give the key to mother. Everything is up to you."

Nanny Tian reluctantly stepped forward and handed over a bunch of keys.

Nanny Liu stepped forward to take the key and nodded slightly to Old Madam Shen. Old Madam Shen knew that the key to the warehouse containing Gu Nianchu's dowry was kept here.

"Gu, go back and have a rest."

Old Madam Shen was eager to go to Gu Nianchu's warehouse to get the good things, so she asked Gu Nianchu to leave quickly.

Shen Jiao couldn't wait to go to Gu Nianchu's storeroom to pick out some jewelry, so Shen Ling let her go first. He called Old Madam Shen and said, "Mother, I want to discuss something with you."

When only the mother and son were left in the room, Shen Ling whispered, "Mother, I feel like Gu has been possessed by evil spirits for the past two days. We need to think about this matter carefully."

Madam Shen was a little disapproving: "Then Gu is also afraid, and now she has taken the initiative to surrender. My son should not be suspicious."

Shen Ling frowned, "According to her past behavior, if she had used the dowry as a betrothal gift, there would have been no problem. But now that so many things have happened, if she takes it out again, she will shout about it and see that the betrothal gift list is the same as the dowry list. It is not appropriate after all."

Madam Shen hesitated: "How dare she?"

Shen Ling thought of the IOU for 180,000 yuan he wrote yesterday and smiled bitterly: "Mother, she used Xie Xilan's power to force her son to write the IOU for 180,000 yuan yesterday."

"Ling'er, what do you think we should do about this?"

Old Madam Shen was also a little uncertain. Shen Ling whispered, "We'll print out the mold of the key to her private vault, and then have her send someone to count her dowry on the spot, and then..."
