Marriage Beloved in Troubled Times: Madam Wants to Run Away from Marriage

Chapter 9 That Handy Gu Wan Is Dead
"Besides, with the bloody wound on your head, if you offend the nobleman of the Marshal's Mansion, can you afford it? Can our Gu family afford it?"

These words, said harshly, seem to be for the sake of the Gu family.

But in fact, Jiang Shumei is the one who doesn't want Gu Wan to see the Huo family. What if the young master of the Huo family that Gu Wan hooks up with really doesn't want to marry into the Meng family, and what if she blocks Gu Yuting's way of getting rich? ?
However, Gu Yuting broke free from Jiang Shumei's hand and added: "That's right, I don't look at your poor appearance. The ladies and daughters who went there also wore western-style dresses. Do you have them?"

Jiang Shumei wished she could just sew Gu Yuting's mouth up.

Saying that Gu Wan is poor and doesn't have a western-style dress to wear, doesn't it mean that she has to admit that she has treated Gu Wan badly for so many years?

Sure enough, Gu Haishan's face immediately darkened, and he looked at Jiang Shumei coldly: "Every month you go to the cashier to get money to buy clothes and so on, but you didn't even buy a dress for Wan'er?"

"This... isn't it because Wan'er doesn't like western-style dresses?" Jiang Shumei looked at Gu Wan with a warning in her eyes: "Isn't it, Gu Wan?"

In the past, Jiang Shumei had eaten to death and Gu Wan would never sue in front of Gu Haishan for the sake of the safety of the house.

But she didn't know that the Gu Wan she ate to death was already from the previous life
"Mother, I don't dislike western-style dresses." Gu Wan lowered her head and said aggrievedly, "Sister Yuting once wanted a dress that she didn't want, and I wanted it. You said I couldn't wear such a high-end dress." I’m going to give that dress to Yu Ting’s little sister’s spitz as a dress.”

The meaning behind these words is clearly that under Jiang Shumei's care these years, her life is worse than that of a dog.

Gu Wanbian also said in incomparably detailed: "It's the sky blue one, sister Yu Ting only wore it once, and felt that the color was a little lighter, so she didn't like it anymore. After making clothes for Spitz , not very resistant to dirt, Wu Ma, the new laundry maid at home, didn’t know that the material couldn’t be scrubbed hard, and it was damaged, so sister Yu Ting beat him up, who knew that the man in Wu Ma’s family He is a domineering man who rushed to Gu's house to argue, and it was my father who personally came forward and paid a lot of money to solve the problem."

Speaking of this, Gu Wan also asked Gu Haishan: "Father, this is what happened this year, you should still have the impression?"

With blood on her forehead, it's really not good to go to the Huo family's birthday banquet, so she must let her father be very disappointed with Jiang Shumei and Gu Yuting, so that she can let her father temporarily ignore this taboo and take her to the Huo family.

Gu Haishan remembered this matter after thinking about it for a while. He was just annoyed at the time that Gu Yuting would beat up a hired servant because of a dog, but Jiang Shumei had been pleading for Gu Yuting. give up.

Thinking about it now, Gu Yuting's illness at that time might have been fake.

It turns out that beating the hired servants is not the whole thing?
"Jiang Shumei! Is this how you treat my daughter all these years?" Gu Haishan was really angry: "I know you prefer the daughter you brought up with your own hands, and you didn't force you to have a bowl of water, but After all, Gu Wan is your biological daughter and me, the flesh and blood born of your pregnancy in October, and you are so ruthless to her? I really didn't expect that you took good care of Wan'er as you told me on weekdays, and that's how you took care of her. ?”

"From today onwards, you don't need to take care of me later, I will take care of it myself! All the money she needs in the future will be taken directly from me!"

If it was in the past, Gu Wan might have been a little moved when she heard such words, but now, her father has made up her mind to marry her into the Meng family. Calculated in this way, she only has three days left in the Gu family. How much benefit and protection can she get from the Gu family?

"Father, you... don't be angry, it's just a foreign dress, it's my daughter talking too much."

Before Jiang Shumei and Gu Yuting could find a suitable argument, Gu Wan said again: "If the father is willing to give the daughter some money, the daughter can buy a foreign dress after tidying up. As for the injury on the daughter's head, it is just broken. skin, plus just now...but it’s okay, my daughter will go back and wash it well, and then pick a flower and wear it on the top of her head with a foreign dress, and she will definitely not be able to see anything."

"It's not that my daughter has to go to the Huo family's banquet. It's just that before my daughter gets married, this is the only time I can see Meng Shuheng and it won't arouse suspicion. I will go to Meng Shuheng to ask the matter clearly. No matter what happens, it will not damage the Gu family's reputation, nor will it damage the family relationship between the Gu family and the Meng family."

Gu Wan had already talked to this extent, so Gu Haishan couldn't refuse anymore, so he nodded his head: "Then you go back and prepare, and then come to me to get money to buy foreign dresses, I will send two people to follow you. "

"Thank you, father." Gu Wan accepted it as soon as she saw it, and said to the old shopkeeper without any other requests, "Thank you, Uncle De, for sending me back."

After speaking, she turned around and went back to her room.

When walking, she purposely took a wider step, and the wind lifted the cloak, revealing the dress inside, so that Gu Haishan and others could see clearly that what she was wearing was not what she was wearing last night at all.

All the way back to her room, seeing that the tidy room was filled with old furniture and the vanity mirror was cracked several times, Gu Wan really felt that she was alive again.

She sat in front of the mirror, looked at her face inside, and tore off the gauze on her forehead, revealing her broken forehead. Just now she used a lot of force to knock on the bluestone slab. It's a bloody mess.

However, this level of injury has not been uncommon for her since she was a child.

She opened the drawer, took out the alcohol in it, and scrubbed the wound directly. This is the fastest way to clear the wound and reduce infection. It will be very painful at the beginning, but it will be fine once you get used to it.

People, you have to be cruel to yourself before you can be cruel to the enemy!

Gu Wan didn't stop until the wound was washed white, and only traces of blood flowed out. Then, he applied a special western medicine ointment, and bandaged the wound again with white gauze. After a while, the wound would heal. For some, if she puts on some makeup, the wound can be covered up. However, it hurts at the Huo family's banquet, and she will show it at the most suitable time. Otherwise, how can she wash off the wound from last night? Innocence?
She had just wrapped up when Gu Yuting's voice sounded outside the door: "Gu Wan, you shameless bitch, get out!"
