Yesterday, no matter how much she tried, Gu Qingyuan wouldn't let go and punish Gu Jinzhu. He even warned her to stop this matter and not let her have another chance.
Mrs. Yao was so angry that her heart ached. Even though she had put in so much effort, she couldn't hurt Gu Jinzhu in the slightest.
Gu Bitong also felt it was inconceivable. Her father usually doted on her, but she didn't expect that after coming back for only a few days, her father's heart would be completely set on her side. This made her feel a strong sense of crisis.
She spun twice on the ground with a trace of anxiety on her face. "Mom, we can't go on like this. Third Sister's face is so bad that even Father isn't helping her. If we let that bitch gain a foothold, who knows what might happen in the future?"
Mrs. Yao said angrily, "How would I not know? But right now, your father is very protective of her, so if we attack again, it will only anger your father. This morning, he even told me to bring that slut to attend the chrysanthemum viewing feast, waiting for her precious daughter to come out."
Upon hearing this, Gu Bitong's face broke into a small smile. "Since father is so eager to see big sister come out, why don't we take advantage of him?"
Mrs. Yao was stunned as she said angrily, "Then wouldn't that be letting slut off the hook?"
She was well aware that with Gu Jinzhu's appearance, she would definitely be able to amaze everyone at the banquet.
There were so many Lady in the capital, and very few people had a better appearance than her. Even her own daughter, Bitong, did not stand outstandingly beside Gu Jinzhu with such a bright and beautiful face.
However, Gu Bitong smiled faintly and said, "There are many ways to become famous, but not all of them are good things."
She stood up and walked towards a rose. She pinched off a petal and crushed it into pieces. The bright red juice instantly dyed her fingertip red, but it couldn't match the cold smile in her eyes.
Mrs. Yao said, "You mean —"
Gu Bitong turned around and said, "You don't have to worry about this matter. Since father wants you to bring her there, you should do it beautifully. Gu Bitong turned around and said," You don't need to worry about this matter, since father wants you to take her there, you should do it beautifully.
Seeing that her daughter had an idea, Mrs. Yao immediately calmed down.
It could be said that the person she trusted the most was her own daughter.
Since she was young, Gu Bitong had always been intelligent and had been taught by Consort Shu. She was far more scheming than Mrs. Yao, and usually when there were matters, Mrs. Yao would ask her for her opinion.
Within the Green Bamboo Garden.
Su Ju looked eagerly at the door, running one trip after another. Yun Xiang could not help but ask, "What are you looking at? So long? "
Su Ju pouted her lips and said, "Didn't Master say he would give it to Miss as a gift? Why is no one coming at this time? "
Yun Xiang was also stunned. Yesterday, Gu Qingyuan said that he would give her an ice basin and silver coins. She also had a trace of hope in her heart.
Who knew that it was almost noon, and no one had come yet?
When Yun Xiang entered the room, Gu Jinzhu was leaning on the bed with a book, casually flipping through a book. She had a simple bun tied around her head and was wearing a green homemade dress.
Yun Xiang said in disappointment, "Miss, Master. Did you forget what you said yesterday? Otherwise, why haven't you come over yet? "
Gu Jinzhu's hand trembled slightly, but she didn't say anything.
She didn't have much hope in her heart. Although she didn't see her father many times, she knew Gu Qingyuan too well.
If he was someone who valued rules and regulations, his Gu Mansion would not have reached its current state.
He had long been obsessed with Mrs. Yao and had a soft spot for her. Therefore, he had always been one to listen to her.
Even so, she still felt a bit sour in her heart.
It wasn't that he didn't have any expectations, but his father. In the end, she was once again disappointed.
In the afternoon, Mrs. Yao actually sent someone over to bring over two sets of dresses and some jewelry. The servant girl who brought the things said that the young miss of the temple lady's house in Chang Zai had posted a note inviting the girl from Gu Mansion to attend the chrysanthemum viewing feast. The young mistress was afraid that the young miss would not be able to get out of her house wearing the clothes, so she specially ordered someone to make them.
Su Ju and Yun Xiang were both slightly surprised when they carried the clothes back to the room.
The dress was a top quality material, top quality silk, as smooth as water, a light pink, an icy blue, and not only beautiful in color, but also beautifully styled.
The jewelry that was sent was also exquisite.
However, both Rue Xiang and Su Ju were scared of Mrs. Yao. They were afraid that she was up to something, so they didn't dare to pass the clothes on to Gu Jinzhu.
He checked everything thoroughly and even went through the water twice to wash it clean. Only then did it hang out and be carefully ironed.
The jewelry also checked back and forth, making sure nothing happened before letting out a sigh of relief.
Su Ju wondered, "Has Madam changed her personality? Such good clothes can actually be sent to Miss? "
Yun Xiang changed her clothes as she said, "Who cares about her? In any case, we ladies have to go out with great difficulty. We really don't have any suitable clothes."
Gu Jinzhu's clothes were a little too big, so she could only help her put away her waist.
Two days later, Yun Xiang and Su Ju woke up early in the morning to help Gu Jinzhuqiao with her makeup.
Su Ju prepared clothes and accessories for Gu Jinzhu, and Yun Xiang pondered in the mirror, "Miss, what kind of hair style are you going to comb today?" He ran a finger nimbly through his black hair to create a beautiful shape.
Gu Jinzhu had never liked a complex bun. This time it was a simple bun, but the headdress was a bright red onyx and a fine gold chain in front of her forehead. A ruby hung like a drop of water on her forehead.
She wore her royal blue dress. Su Ju took out a pair of sparkling white jade bracelets and placed them on her wrists. She also took out a pair of crescent moons and hung them around her waist to press down the corners of her skirt.
Finally, he squatted down to tidy up her skirt.
Yun Xiang was still worried as she repeatedly reminded Su Ju, "Be careful when you go. You must follow Miss Li closely and never speak carelessly. Don't create any trouble for her."
Su Ju waved her hand and said, "Got it, Big Sister Yunxi. You've been reciting for the whole night, so I'll definitely follow Miss closely."
Yun Xiang nodded. She was obviously still worried, but she could do nothing about it.
This time when Gu Jinzhu went to the banquet, she could only bring one girl with her. Su Ju was a lively person, so if she wanted to follow, Yun Xiang could only stay at home to look after the house.
The girl sent by Mrs. Yao, the outer room, was already urging them to leave. Gu Jinzhu tidied up the room and walked out quickly with Su Ju.
