Mrs. Yao smiled as she stroked her daughter's black hair and whispered, "Have you seen King Jin this time when we entered the palace? Did you talk to him? "

Gu Bitong twisted her body as if she didn't want to comply, and dragged out her tone, "Mo-what are you talking about, Brother Qi is so busy, he doesn't have the time to talk to his daughter."

"Really?" Mrs. Yao looked at her with a smile. "No matter how busy he is, he still wants to go to the palace and greet Imperial Concubine Shu. Did you really not see him?" "Yah, I can't even see who sent so many jewelry and gifts on the train."

"Mother …" Gu Bitong blushed, but she still lowered her voice proudly and said, "I've only seen it two or three times. Brother Qi knows I like the jewelry from the Treasure Aura Pavilion, so he specifically bought it for me."

Mrs. Yao nodded and said with a face full of gratification, "Mother is relieved that King Jin is considerate to you. Once the marriage agreement is made in the future, once you become King Jin's wife, wouldn't the family be able to rely on you to support them? Besides, I heard that the emperor likes King Jin, maybe … Tong, ah, that year, my mother went to Yaohua Temple to tell you fate.

Gu Bitong lowered her head, her cheeks blushing. "Mother, you can't speak nonsense. 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 was that Gu Jinzhu? Not even the mud on her feet!

She smiled faintly, masking the eagerness in her eyes.

The next morning, Gu Jinzhu became worried. Biwan and Yun Xiang were both injured. No one would be able to help her.

Biwan and Yun Xiang, on the other hand, weren't delicate. They woke up early as usual, and Yun Xiang's hands were wrapped in thick gauze, but she still had to comb her hair. Gu Jinzhu naturally wouldn't let her be tired.

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 Green Bamboo Garden were all divided up among the few girls, they were all part of Mrs. Yao's men. Gu Jinzhu did not dare to push the matter too far, but she had no other choice now, so she said indifferently, "It's fine, go ahead. I have my own plans."

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 Jinzhufu and said, "Miss, are you calling 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 combing Jinzhu's hair in an extremely complicated and complicated manner.

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

The magpie was stunned for a moment. When he saw Gu Jinzhu's cold face, he felt a bit wronged. "Yes."

The magpie watched eagerly from the side. Seeing that she was about to leave, he hurriedly said with a face full of courtesy, "Miss, Yun Xiang and Biwan, the two younger sisters, are both injured. How about a servant accompany you to Yenfu House to pay respects?"

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

The Yenfu House was busier than usual today, and the moment they arrived at the entrance, they heard a wave 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 Mrs. Yao, but Mrs. Jiang had also arrived. Mrs. Zhao and her daughter, Gu Zhiyue, were also present. Other than Mrs. Lee and Gu Yurong, there was also a unfamiliar woman sitting in the second room.

Gu Bitong was wearing a light pink Peach Blossom Cloud shirt. There were a lot of peach blossoms embroidered on it. There was a green phoenix hairpin on her head. The long hair hung down and made her look more and more beautiful.

Mrs. Lee stared at the jade hairpin on her head with a face full of admiration. "This is the hairpin Imperial Concubine Shu gave 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 Bitong smiled slightly with a trace of pride in her eyes. She pretended to inadvertently stroke her hair, revealing an amber waxy bracelet on her wrist. It made her skin seem even more frosty than before.

Mrs. Lee's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. She came from a small family, so her parents couldn't be better off compared to the Yao family. When had she ever seen such a good item?

Even if he married into the Gu Mansion, he would only use his three sons as a base. His private property was already insufficient, and the lustful look on his face could not even be concealed.

Mrs. Yao looked at her with disdain. When she saw Gu Jinzhu come in and greet her, as well as her clothes, she 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 glanced at Mrs. Lee.

Mrs. Lee is a shrewd and petty person, but she wasn't stupid. She immediately realized that Mrs. Yao was taking this opportunity to ridicule her, and quickly replied, "What's wrong with my old clothes? "Even if her appearance isn't good enough, this material is still good. Moreover, even if the clothes don't wear well, it still depends on who wears it. With Zhu's appearance, even if she wears the clothes from a few years ago, she would still look good!"

Today, Gu Jinzhu was wearing a purple grape peony chrysanthemum pattern fleecy jacket with a pleated skirt under it. She looked wealthy and dignified. It wasn't as outdated as Mrs. Yao had said; she was just taking advantage of the situation to throw a tantrum.

Just as she was about to say something, Gu Bitong smiled and interrupted the two of them, "Alright, mother, Second Aunt, sister just returned to the capital, so I'm afraid that she's not familiar with the patterns of the clothes here. I just happened to have a few sets of new clothes that I've made, and I just happened to give them to sister."

Gu Jinzhu said lightly, "There's no need. How can I wear my sister's clothes?"

Gu Bitong smiled affectionately. "We are sisters. If you have anything to say, then I'll have the little girl deliver the clothes to big sister."

When Gu Yurong saw the servant girl behind Gu Jinzhu, she raised her head and asked, "Big sister, why aren't Yun Xiang and Biwan here?"
