While she was eating, Maid Ping from the Golden Parasol Courtyard was surprised to hear her reply. "She really said that?"

"Yes, that Old Lady Wang from the kitchen really replied truthfully. That young miss said that if the kitchen still dared to use this kind of food to fool people, she would spread the news and say …" "I said that the master had treated his daughter badly …"

Maid Ping's face turned serious. She waved her hand to get the little girl to get off and turned around to enter the room.

She explained the situation in detail to Mrs. Yao, sighed and said, "Looks like we made a mistake. That little girl isn't as easy to reconcile as she seems to be on the surface. Madam, we have to deal with this slowly, we have to find a chance to take care of her after a few days!"

Mrs. Yao pulled on the handkerchief in her hands, her face turning green from hatred. She gritted her teeth and said, "A girl as little as her mother. Where did she get such sharp eyes? I don't believe she would dare to spread it!" If she dares to do this right after returning, then what will she do when she stands firmly in the future? "

"No, we can't let it go like this," she jumped down to the ground and spun around twice. "We can't let this girl step on our heads as soon as she returns …"

"But …" Maid Ping still wanted to persuade her again, but Mrs. Yao waved her hand with a sneer on her face, "No buts, we have to let this girl know who's in charge of this mansion!"

Biwan waited on Gu Jinzhu after she finished eating. After washing her face and rinsing her mouth, she lay down on the bed.

This was her first day back at home, but she did not have a single trace of belonging. It was as if she had arrived at a foreign place, and her surroundings were filled with an unfamiliar atmosphere that made people restless.

At night, Yun Xiang was on guard duty. She was afraid that she would catch a cold, so she closed all the windows before lying down on the bed. Listening to her tossing and turning about, she couldn't help but whisper, "Miss, can't you sleep?"

Gu Jinzhu didn't say anything. Through the faint green curtain, she saw her sit up.

Yun Xiang also sat up, thinking that she was still angry about the dinner and couldn't help but advise, "Miss, let's sleep first. This servant will watch today. It might be a good thing. "

She hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice, "And it's still the Countess. I didn't expect her to be so petty."

Gu Jinzhu burst out in laughter. It was no wonder that she could see through Yun Xiang's meticulous thoughts.

Mrs. Yao was too petty and petty. She couldn't even wait a day for him to leave. She was so embarrassed when she came back that she completely disregarded her pride.

However, it was no wonder. She was originally a daughter of the Yao Manor. If it weren't for her elder sister's status as a court lady of Consort Shu, her character wouldn't have been able to stabilize herself in the position of the State Duke's wife.

He couldn't blame her for being so impatient back then, for chasing away his first daughter the moment he entered the palace. With such a matriarch, he could imagine how famous her State Duke's Mansion was.

However, Mrs. Yao's character was harmless to them. Before she came back, she was a little afraid of Mrs. Yao, but after seeing her impatient appearance, she felt a bit more confident.

It was no wonder that even Mrs. Lee from the Second Branch did not put her in her eyes. Furthermore, what she needed to pay attention to was the one she had to pay her respects to tomorrow, the haughty old lady, the grandmother of her direct relatives, Mrs. Zhen.

No matter how she thought about it, her grandmother's face in her memory was blurred. The only thing she could remember was the ferocious and terrifying face she had when facing Third Uncle in her childhood.

Mrs. Zhen pointed at the skinny young man standing beside her with an ice-cold expression and yelled at him hysterically.

She was slightly startled as that handsome and cold face appeared in her mind again. When she turned her head slightly, a trace of gentleness flowed out of her eyes.

Her heart thumped in her chest. It had been half a month since she left Binzhou, but that shadow was growing clearer in her heart.

I wonder if the things over there are done yet. When will he be back?

Her thoughts unconsciously drifted far away. After chattering for a long time, seeing her master completely silent, she thought she had already fallen asleep.

Silence descended upon the room. The only sound that could be heard was the sound of the wind rustling the bamboo leaves outside the window. Gu Jinzhu stared at the dark roof of the tent.

The next day, just as dawn arrived, the sound of a little girl moving about came from outside the courtyard. Gu Jinzhu turned over and opened the door. Biwan came in with a basin of hot water.

"Miss, it's time to wake up." Yun Xiang rolled up her veil and softly called out. Today, she had to pay respects to Madam Gu, so she couldn't be late.

Gu Jinzhu opened her eyes sleepily. Ren Yunxiang and Biwan busily combed her hair and face until she was sitting in front of the dressing table. Only then did she slightly sober up.

While Yun Xiang was rummaging through the jewelry box, Biwan was picking out clothes from the cabinet. As she looked at her hand reaching towards a long dress made of Mei Hong's silk, Gu Jinzhu frowned and said, "Wear that blue one."

Biwan's hand stopped and she turned around in surprise, "Miss, you want to wear this? Isn't it too pure? "

I heard that the madame in the mansion likes the young girl to dress up more happily. She wears such plain clothes, will it make her unhappy when we meet for the first time?

Gu Jinzhu said lightly, "It's alright." Her grandmother had not been dead for more than half a year, and she was not fit to wear bright colors.

Biwan had no choice but to take out the blue and silver long skirt embroidered with melon and butterfly patterns.

Gu Jinzhu had never liked to comb her complicated hair into a bun. This time, it was simply a bun made of clouds. She only used the brace inlaid with diamond to make it look clean and clean.

The dress was originally very simple, but when it was worn on Gu Jinzhu's body, it seemed to have changed. The light blue colour made the young girl look as clean and beautiful as a handful of snow on top of a snowy mountain.

Not only did this blue dress make her seem frail, it even gave her an extraordinary air.

Even though Biwan and Yun Xiang had been serving her for a long time, they were unfazed by her beauty. Biwan stared at her for a while before she couldn't help but exclaim happily, "Miss, wearing it like this is really beautiful. The madame will definitely like it."

Gu Jinzhu's lips curved into a slight smile. In her heart, she was thinking about how she liked someone not because of her looks or what she wore, but because everything was good in her heart. If she hated him, then she would do anything wrong.

After everything was settled, Mrs. Yao sent nanny to lead the way, and the group walked towards Old Madam Gu's Yenfu House.

At this time, the sun had just risen and the morning mist had just dispersed. Gu Jinzhufang had the chance to carefully inspect the environment of the Gu Mansion.

Along the way, the two sides of the road were planted with parasol trees. The sun was cut into specks of light by the luxuriant leaves, like gold shards dancing on the limestone road.

The Gu Mansion was more beautiful than she had ever imagined. Thinking back to many years ago, when her mother had also lived here, and this place originally belonged to her own family, a complicated feeling welled up in her heart.

The area that Yenfu House occupied was larger than Mrs. Yao's courtyard, with red walls and green tiles all around, it looked extraordinary. Dozens of maid's were waiting at the entrance.

The leading girl had a pretty face and was dressed in a purple dress. She smiled and asked, "Are you the young miss? The madame and the ladies have been waiting for a long time. " As he spoke, he lifted the curtain.

Laughter and chatter could be heard in the room, as if there were a lot of people there. Gu Jinzhu went in and turned around to see a five blessings and lifespan screen. She was nearly blinded by the room full of jewel-like women.
