She purposely revealed half of her red and swollen face as she cried miserably, making Su Ju's crying and scolding look even worse.
Gu Jinzhu was so angry that she started laughing. What a good girl. Not only did she know how to tell the truth, she even knew how to act! If she didn't know what had happened, she really would have been tricked.
She stood there quietly with a cold glint in her eyes. She waited until she had cried enough before slowly saying, "You are a good seed for acting, since you don't want to be in my yard so much, then I might as well report back to my mother and send you to Pear Garden. Wouldn't it be as you wish for me to become a professional actor in the future?"
"Uh — ah?"
The magpie was in the middle of wailing and complaining, but when he suddenly heard Gu Jinzhu's words, he was stunned for a moment before reacting. He was suddenly scared out of his mind.
He hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy, "Eldest Miss, your servant was wrong. Your servant was possessed by a ghost just now, so I said something worse than pigs and dogs, and serving Eldest Miss is your servant's lifetime of good fortune. Your servant absolutely doesn't dare to have any second thoughts. Eldest Miss, please forgive me this time!"
This time, she was really afraid that Gu Jinzhu would sell her. Her head was banging loudly against the ground and tears were flowing down her face.
Gu Jinzhu didn't even look at her as she walked quickly to Su Ju's side. "How are you?" Is the wound still painful? "
Su Ju shook her head. Her face was still pale, but she forced a smile. "Don't worry Miss, your servant is fine."
Gu Jinzhu and Yun Xiang helped her into the room, ignoring the crying magpie who was kneeling down and beating his chest.
After applying the medicine on Su Ju, Gu Jinzhu's heart ached as she looked at her still red skin.
However, Su Ju giggled as she comforted her, "Miss, it's alright. It doesn't hurt at all. Your servant is still well. It won't be long before I recover."
Gu Jinzhu remained silent.
The crying of the magpie could be heard from outside the room. Wifey Wang poked her head out the door. It seemed like she wanted to come in and confess, but didn't dare to.
Gu Jinzhu's eyes darkened as she felt depressed.
If the monthly allowance continued like this, her days would only become more and more miserable.
She had already been thinking of a way out, but there was nothing she could do at the moment.
Mrs. Yao only dared to treat her so harshly because she knew that she had no backing.
Yun Xiang and Su Ju, on the other hand, were easy to deal with. Even if the two girls didn't leave her, there was still someone else in the Green Bamboo Garden. Other than Qiqiao and Magpie, Willow and Xiao Cui also worked hard, but as their masters, they couldn't afford to lose their own girl.
She felt a little defeated. These days, her patience had been exchanged for Mrs. Yao's change in attitude.
It was a scorching summer day and she didn't even have an ice bowl to cool down from the heat. Every night, she couldn't sleep because of the heat. Thanks to Yun Xiang and Su Ju, who fanned each other in turn, she didn't rest well.
It was impossible to expect Mrs. Yao to give her more money, so she could only think of her own way.
Right now, her top priority was to find a way to earn a living. Even if she didn't rely on Gu Mansion one day, she had the ability to settle down and settle down.
She had thought of setting up a shop, but as a young lady, she couldn't even get out of the door. She didn't even have her own people, so how could she get out?
She kept thinking about it, so she decided to just leave the courtyard and slowly walk along the Gu Mansion.
Behind the Green Bamboo Garden was a lake, and at the center of the lake was a pavilion, with small bridges and pavilions.
It was a remote place, and although the scenery was beautiful, there were few people who came. Gu Jinzhu often walked there, and Yun Xiang knew that her young miss was thinking about something, so she didn't dare to disturb her.
She slowly moved forward along the pavilion, passing through a gate of the moon. Unknowingly, she had traveled a little further.
Until a wall of Deva powder appeared in front of him. A few oleanders stuck their heads out of the wall and dropped a tree of tender pink flowers.
"Huh?" Yun Xiang exclaimed. "Miss, what is this place? It's a nice scenery, why haven't I noticed it before?"
Gu Jinzhu also felt it was a little strange. This place was already the most remote place in the Gu Mansion, she didn't think that there would be such a courtyard.
She took a few steps forward and could see that the courtyard was not big, but it was very clean and tidy. There was a stone courtyard in the courtyard, and on the board, three words "Jingxuan House" were faintly written.
Just as she was curiously watching, a green-clothed attendant walked out from the corner of the courtyard. He was handsome, and upon seeing her, he was momentarily stunned, then went up and respectfully said, "Miss, please stop.
Gu Jinzhu was startled. She had never heard of any forbidden grounds in the Gu Mansion, but after turning around, she realized that they were already very far away from her residence and probably out of the Inner Court's range. She nodded and left without a word.
She walked over, and Gu Bijin's voice came from behind the flowers, "Second Sister, why did you go to Jingxuan House? Didn't Third Uncle not come back yet?"
When the word "Third Uncle" drifted over, Gu Jinzhu's footsteps unconsciously paused.
Gu Bitong's voice carried a bit of embarrassment and anger as she said, "Where did I go to the Jingxuan House? I just casually strolled around. Besides, what does it have to do with me whether that person returns or not?"
Gu Bijin giggled, "Yes, Second Sister was just strolling around casually. I didn't say anything, but I don't know when Third Uncle will return, he's so good-looking, more so than all the men outside. Last time at Miss Zhou's gathering, several ladies secretly asked me about Third Uncle."
Gu Bitong sneered, "What kind of person is he to be Third Uncle? If you shout so affectionately, be careful that your mother hears you angry! What's more, even if he looked good, what was the point? Did a man rely on his looks to survive? "If I don't think of a way to gain even the slightest bit of official position, I'll just curry favor with that Prince Rui. It's strange that mother and grandmother both look down on him."
"Yes, yes, yes!" Gu Bijin laughed. "Of course he can't compare to His Highness King Jin. His Highness's status is noble, and he's also very obedient to his elder sister. I, your little sister, offer greetings to the future King Jin …"
"You little hoof, you only know how to talk nonsense, see if I don't pinch your mouth." The two sisters burst into laughter.
Hearing them slander Gu Yiqing behind his back, Gu Jinzhu felt unexplainable discomfort in her heart. Just as she was about to walk to the other side with Yun Xiang, she heard Gu Bitong let out a "Ah!", "Third Sister, what's wrong with your face? How could there be such a big red patch? "
Gu Bijin's voice was a little upset as she said, "I don't know what's going on. It's probably because of the pollen's allergy. My face is always itchy, so when I scratch it turns red."
Gu Bitong said with concern, "Then you must find a doctor to have a good look. Girls' faces are no small matter."
Gu Bijin said, "My mother called the doctor a long time ago and just said that it's alright. She said that since there were too many flowers planted in the house, there might be some kind of allergies. In the past, there have been cases like this as well, but after a few days it'll be fine."
He couldn't help but mutter, "Why are there so many flowers growing in the mansion? It's really good to look at, but it's a bit too troublesome."
