Old Madam Gu had always doted on her son, and with the addition of the second branch, Ding Xing, as well as the presence of her grandchildren, she would inevitably prefer the second branch more.
The madame also complained about her disappointing stomach. If it wasn't for the fact that she was worried that her elder sister was the imperial concubine of the court, Gu Qingyuan's room would have been completely deserted by now.
Mrs Yao's heart was filled with worry all year round. If this went on, once something happened to her son, Gu Rong Qi, then the title of nobility would inevitably fall into the hands of the Second Branch.
Madame Li naturally knew this, and her face and heart were at odds with Shi Xueman. She would often poke fingers at Gu Jinzhu when she had nothing to do. This time, she also knew Gu Jinzhu had returned and hurried over to see the commotion.
As for Gu Jinzhu, when she thought of her elegant face, it was as if a needle had pierced her heart. She didn't expect that the lass who was like a bean sprout plant would be so beautiful, even comparable to her Tong'er!
She became even more upset as she thought of Gu Yurong's words. Bi Tong's reputation had spread throughout the capital; her daughter was going to be a great person in the future. At this critical juncture, how could she allow anyone to ruin her daughter's glory?
When Senior Servant Ping saw through her thoughts, she came over and said, "Madam, please bear with it. That girl just came back, it's really not easy to make a move, and if anything happens to her, it'll affect Second Young Miss's reputation. As long as that girl is right under our noses, it'll be easy to pinch her to death."
Lady Yao gritted her teeth for a long time, but she knew what the wet nurse said was true. She bitterly sighed and said, "It's all thanks to that little girl. It's all because of Lady Li.
Senior Servant Ping couldn't help but laugh. "Isn't it just a pair of bracelets?" Second Young Miss came and left the palace all day long. Imperial Concubine Fu doted on her so much, so why did she lack that idea? "I'll just treat it as letting her off lightly now. In the future, after Madam has dealt with that little girl, I'll take all the profits with me!"
Senior Servant Ping's words finally reached the deepest part of Lady Yao's heart. She calmed her anger for a while and said, "Senior Servant Wu, just look coldly at her. Can you tell what kind of personality she has?" "Is it that easy to handle?"
Senior Servant Ping personally came over with a cup of tea and said with a smile, "Are you feeling anxious again, madam?" "This person has just returned, how could I tell? It seems like she is being docile. However, this period of time is still long. It's hard to say what will happen in the future …"
Lady Yao drank a mouthful of tea and suppressed the fluctuations in her heart. She said indifferently, "Senior is right, in this day and age … It's still growing. "
Gu Jinzhu followed Jin Wu, while Yun Xiang and Bi Meng watched curiously. They had lived in Linjian since they were children, so they were very curious about the mansion of a noble family in Shengjing. However, the more they walked, the more they felt that something was wrong, and the more remote the road became.
"Big sister Jindan, did you go the wrong way?" Yun Xiang couldn't help but ask. Does Eldest Miss live here? "
"Eldest Miss has been gone for the past few years, so the courtyard isn't suitable for empty space, so the madame has already allocated it for Second Miss to live in. The other residences in the mansion have their own young masters and maidens, leaving behind only the green bamboo garden in the west side.
Just as they were talking, they had arrived at the Green Bamboo Garden. Passing through a simple and crude Moon Gate, they saw a small path paved with pebbles with green bamboo growing on both sides. The wind blew past them, causing the bamboo forest to sway.
Passing through the bamboo thickets, he was able to see the entire courtyard. There were three main houses at the front, with one each having an eardrum and a few side rooms. It was similar to the layout of Lady Yao's courtyard, but much smaller.
"My lady, please go in and rest. There is not much time left for you to do this. If you are dissatisfied with anything, please speak to my lady again. Your servant will take his leave first."
As he spoke, he blessed himself with the pearl, turned around, and walked away.
When they entered the room, Yun Xiang and Bi Meng were stunned.
The room was clean, but the furnishings were simple and crude. Some tables and chairs were half-worn, while the beds were covered in ordinary quilts. The two of them widened their eyes in surprise.
She raised her eyebrows and said, "Madam is too excessive, how can I arrange such a room for you? Not only is the land so remote, it is also so simple and crude. The houses of the servants in front are even better! "
Yun Xiang's face was also filled with anger. She thought for a moment and said, "No, I have to find Madam. This is too bullying …"
Saying so, she turned around and walked towards the door. Gu Jinzhu shouted, "Come back."
Looking at the two angry girls, she helplessly said, "What's the use of you two going now? It's clear that Lady Yao wants to put me in my place. All of you are going now, but for no reason at all, I want you all to humiliate me. "
"Then what should we do? You can't just let her bully you, right? " Bea stamped her foot.
Gu Jinzhu didn't say anything. She walked to the window and opened it, revealing a jade-green window with a clump of jade-green bananas. It turned out that there was a huge lake at the back of the house.
At this time, the sun was setting in the west, and a faint golden light was sprinkling down. The surface of the lake was covered with pink lotuses, and the lotus leaves that connected the sky to the lake were infinitely beautiful, beautiful to the extreme.
Gu Jinzhu smiled faintly, "This place isn't bad either. Let's do it like this."
Bi Xing's mouth was wide open. "How, how can that be? This place is so simple and crude …"
Gu Jinzhu lightly said, "It's not like we can't live with them, why must we go and let them humiliate us for no reason!"
Yun Xiang was stunned for a moment before she instantly reacted.
It was Lady Yao's intention for this matter to be made clear. The Miss had just returned to the Manor, and if things got out of hand now, she would only gain a reputation for being ignorant. She said that once she returned, she would cause uneasiness in the Residence of He, and that Lady Yao might be waiting for them to deliver her to them.
Bi Meng bit her lips. She looked unresigned. "But …"
Yun Xiang tugged at the corner of her clothes, sighing. "Listen to the young mistress, hurry and pack up."
She took the reluctant Aster to set up the house. It was too simple, too full of things to buy, and the things on the carriage outside had already been brought in. The two of them moved back and forth.
Fortunately, when they left the Yang Mansion, Madam Wang brought a lot of good things to fawn on Gu Yiqing.
Gu Jinzhu had been standing by the window the entire time, looking out at the sky filled with red clouds. A moist wind blew across her face, making her feel incomparably cool and comfortable on this summer night.
She thought of that arrogant girl just now. She was just a concubine, yet she dared to point at that girl's nose and yell at her to scram. She even said that there was only one young miss in the mansion, Lady Yao was really good at scheming and instigating a concubine to stand up and embarrass her as soon as she entered the mansion.
Very good, Yao!
She pursed her lips. The red clouds outside were like fire, but it could not cover the coldness in the young girl's eyes.
She was the most legitimate young miss in the mansion, yet she was bullied to such an extent! One day, she would definitely regret bringing her back!
The madame also complained about her disappointing stomach. If it wasn't for the fact that she was worried that her elder sister was the imperial concubine of the court, Gu Qingyuan's room would have been completely deserted by now.
Mrs Yao's heart was filled with worry all year round. If this went on, once something happened to her son, Gu Rong Qi, then the title of nobility would inevitably fall into the hands of the Second Branch.
