The Legitimate Miss Returns With Honor

Lady Yao smiled as she stroked her daughter's black hair and whispered, "This time entering the palace, did you see Prince Jin? Did you talk to him? "

Gu Beitong twisted her body to feign disobedience, drawing out her tone. "Mother … What are you talking about? Brother Qi is so busy, he doesn't have the time to talk to his daughter."

"Really?" "No matter how busy he is, he still has to go to the palace and pay respects to esteemed wangfei. Did you really not see him?" "Yah, I can't even see who sent so many jewelry and gifts on the train."

"Mother …" Gu Beitang blushed, but she still lowered her voice a little proudly as she said, "I've only seen it two or three times. Qi gege knew that I liked the jewelry from Baohua Restaurant and specifically bought it for me."

Lady Yao nodded her head and said with a face full of gratification, "Since Prince Jin is interested in you, Mother can rest assured. Once the marriage agreement is made in the future, once you become the princess of the Jin Family, wouldn't the family be able to rely on you to support them? Besides, I heard that the Emperor really likes the Jin Emperor. Who knows … "Tong'er, that year when mother went to Yao Hua Temple to tell you fortune, she said that you were the life of a phoenix. It's too expensive to talk about."

Gu Beitong lowered her head, her cheeks blushing, "Mother, you can't speak carelessly about this. It's not good for others to hear." Her long, fluttering eyelashes revealed her excitement.

"Fate of the Phoenix"? She secretly clenched her fingers. With her appearance, marrying into the imperial family was inevitable. In the future, she would definitely be high and mighty. A phoenix soaring through the heavens!

What did that Gu Jinlong count for? Not even the mud on her feet!

She smiled faintly, masking the eagerness in her eyes.

The next morning, Gu Jinzhu became worried. She had no one to attend to her when she was injured.

As usual, Yun Xiang's hands were wrapped in thick gauze, but she still had to comb her hair. Gu Jinzhu naturally wouldn't let her get tired, so after thinking for a moment, she said to her, "Go and call that magpie in."

Yun Xiang said anxiously, "Miss, it's better if I do it. That girl looks restless from a glance, I can't let her come in and get her hands on me."

Although the few girls from the Jade Bamboo Garden were assigned to her, they were all members of the Yao family. Gu Jinzhu didn't dare to use them too highly, but she was helpless now.

Yun Xiang had no choice but to go to the outer room and call the magpie in.

The magpie had been left in the cold for a while, and originally he had some complaints, but now he suddenly cried out and a look of joy appeared on his face.

She obediently entered the room, smiled at Jinzhu and said, "Miss, you called a servant?"

Gu Jinzhu asked, "Can you comb your hair?"

"In the past, when I was in Madame's room, I learned for a period of time from big sister Jinwu, but I didn't have the chance to get close to her and serve her."

Gu Jinzhu nodded and handed the comb in her hand to her, "From today onwards, help me comb my hair."

The magpie was overjoyed as it hurriedly came up to receive the comb. She had the intention of showing off her ability by giving Jinzhu a very complicated hairstyle.

Gu Jinzhu looked at her hands in the mirror and couldn't help but say, "Comb it a little easier, I don't like it."

The magpie was stunned for a moment. Seeing Gu Jinzhu's cold face, he felt a bit wronged. He answered with a "Yes" and took off those bun for her, then gave her the simplest single bun.

Seeing that she was about to leave, the magpie hurriedly said with a face full of courtesy, "Miss, Yun Xiang and Bi Ji are both injured. How about a servant accompany you to Yanzhou to pay respects?"

Gu Jinzhu swept a glance at her and nodded her head as if for no reason. The magpie immediately had a happy expression.

Yanfu Residence was much more lively today than usual. As soon as they arrived at the entrance, they heard a burst of lively laughter coming from inside. When Gu Jinzhu lifted the curtain, she was almost blinded by the room full of beads and jade.

Not only the Yao clan, but the Jiang clan had also arrived. Even Mrs Zhao and her daughter Gu Zhiyue were present. In the second room, other than Mrs Li and Gu Yuren, there was also a unfamiliar woman sitting below them.

Gu Beitong was wearing a light pink Peach Blossom Cloud shirt, which was embroidered with a large amount of peach blossoms as thick as the clouds. There was a green phoenix hairpin on her head, and it hung down from her shoulders, making her look more and more like a beautiful painting.

Madame Li stared at the jade hairpin on her head with a face full of admiration. "This is the hairpin Imperial Concubine Fu gave to me?" It is indeed a good item. Look at the color of the water, even I have not seen such a good piece of jade. "

Gu Bi Tong faintly smiled with a trace of pride in her eyes. She pretended to inadvertently stroke her hair, revealing the amber wax bracelet on her wrist. It made her skin seem even more frosty than before.

Madame Li's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. She came from a small family, so her parents couldn't be more wealthy than the Yao family. When had she ever seen such a good item?

Even if she married into the Gu Estate, she would only use her three sons as a base. She didn't have many private properties left, and the lustful expression on her face couldn't even be concealed.

Lady Yao looked at her with disdain in her eyes. When she saw Gu Jinzhu come in and greet her, as well as her clothes, she suddenly said indifferently, "Didn't I tell you to change into a new set of clothes? Why are you still wearing your old clothes? This old-fashioned style has long been out of fashion in the capital. If you wear it, it will be laughable. They say that the people in our mansion have no taste and have shallow eyes. "

As she spoke, she swept a glance at Madame Li.

Madame Li is a shrewd and petty person, but she wasn't stupid. She immediately realized that Lady Yao was taking this opportunity to ridicule her, and quickly replied, "What's wrong with her old clothes? Even if she does not look up to date, this material is the best. Moreover, even if this garment does not pass through the time, it still depends on who wears it. Just like Pearl, even if she wears the same clothes from a few years ago, she will still look pretty! "

Gu Jinzhu was wearing a purple grape peony chrysanthemum pattern fleece jacket. Beneath it was a lotus root pleated skirt, appearing extremely rich and dignified. It wasn't as outdated as Lady Yao had said; she was just taking the opportunity to throw a tantrum.

She was just about to say a few more words when Gu Bi Tong smiled and interrupted the two of them, "Alright, Mother, Second Aunt, Elder Sister just returned to the capital, so I'm afraid that you're not familiar with the patterns of the clothes here. I just happened to have a few sets of clothes that I've made, so I just happened to give them to Elder Sister."

Gu Jinzhu said indifferently, "No need, how can I wear younger sister's clothes?"

Gu Beitang smiled warmly and said, "We are sisters, if there's anything to be polite about, I'll have the little girl deliver the clothes to elder sister later."

Seeing that Gu Jinzhu had changed the maidservants, Gu Yulong raised her head and asked, "Big sister, why aren't Yun Xiang and elder sister Bi Ling here?"
