Three days later, go to the capital.

The sedan chair and a few servants of Duke Li's mansion were waiting at the dock early.

When Gu Zhao got off the boat, his cold expression made the servants who came to pick her up unclear. Although this master was a country man, he could not rub it at will, so he respectfully welcomed her into the sedan chair.

The closer he got to Duke Li's Mansion, the more violent the hatred he felt in Gu Zhao's heart.

After entering the mansion, she got off the sedan chair in front of the hanging flower gate of the inner courtyard and walked in with the maid. The grass and trees in front of her were so familiar, but when she saw it again, what she brought to Gu Zhao was not joy, but deeper hatred.

"This is your sister, Lin Xuerong."

This name is like a drop of water falling into a oil pan, instantly exploding the anger in Gu Zhao's heart. The deep hatred still made her almost unable to control herself.

The girl who snuggled in front of her in the arms of Mrs. Zhang, the wife of Duke Li Guo, had a delicate face and a snow-like skin. It was Lin Xuerong who had stepped on Gu Zhao's feet all her life!

Just looking at Zhang and Lin Xuerong's intimate appearance, who would have thought that this was not a biological mother and daughter at all?

"I have said a long time ago, how good can this little vendor raise? Seeing her looking around and looking at her, she has never seen the world before, she is really not on the surface." Zhang covered her mouth with a sneer and sneered, without any concealment of the contempt in her eyes.

Looking at the ugly face of Zhang, her biological mother, Gu Zhao suppressed his anger, clenched his fingers tightly, and felt that his nails had cut through his palms.

Zhang said with a faint expression, "Since you have entered this Duke's Mansion, you will change the stingy family in the future, otherwise you will lose your face when you go out."

Lin Weikang, who was standing beside him, nodding his eyes, without a daughter from the countryside. "One day, I'll hire two nannies from the palace and teach her the rules."

"Why don't you salute your sister quickly? This is too unruly." Zhang looked at Gu Zhao without any movement for a long time, frowned with his slender eyebrows and ordered coldly.

Gu Zhao lowered his head, and Yu Guang glanced at the cold faces of the Duke Li Guo couple, her biological parents.

They always chose Lin Xuerong. The reason why they accepted her as their adopted daughter was that they threw the bones at their own expense when they were eating meat. They fulfilled their responsibilities as parents. They were not willing to give their true feelings, but wanted her to be grateful.

Where do so many cheap things come from in the world?

She just wanted to let Jeonbuki An know the secret that this noble Duke of Liguo wanted to cover up!

"Hello sister. I grew up in the market and have never seen the world. If there is any rudeness, please don't blame me."

Gu Zhao looked shy and had a soft voice. His face was innocent and harmless on his fifteen-to-six-year-old.

After being a county princess and a princess for so many years, you can just talk about socializing like this.

Lin Xuerong seemed very excited, let go of Zhang's hand, and walked towards Gu Zhao with curved eyebrows, "Dad, mother, I have another sister! I'm so happy! Sister, the prince's brother will hold a plum-watching banquet in a few days, I'll take you to play!"

Zhang looked at Lin Xuerong with a doting look, and his eyes looked at Gu Zhao were softer, and his voice also soothed, "Well, learn from your elder sister in the future. Who in the capital knows that your elder sister is outstanding in virtue and talent. If you can learn from your elder sister three points, you will be bound to have a good life in the future."

She waved casually, asked Gu Zhao to step forward, took off the most inconspicuous bracelet on her wrist, and placed it on the palm of Gu Zhao's hand.

"This is my gift to you, take it."

Just as Zhang's hand touched Gu Zhao, Zhang's voice suddenly sounded in Gu Zhao's mind.

Why do you look like that old man! It’s annoying when you see it!

Gu Zhao was stunned for a moment, the bracelet in his hand slid and fell to the ground with a bang.

It turns out that this is how Zhang's mother thinks of her? No wonder Zhang treated Lin Xuerong much better than her in her previous life.

Fortunately, it was just a gold bracelet, and there were no gems inlays on it, and it was not broken.

Zhang's face darkened. She raised her domineering eyebrows and said sarcastically, "I think it's my old woman's thing, I can't catch your eyes."

“No, no.”

Gu Zhao quickly picked up the gold bracelet and wiped it carefully, with apology in his eyes, "Madam, don't be angry. I have never seen gold since I was a child, let alone such a thick gold bracelet. I shook my eyes and didn't hold it firmly for a while. Please forgive me, my wife."

Although Lin Weikang was a man, he knew that this kind of bracelet that was not very good without gems, and the mothers with a little face in the Duke's mansion were unwilling to wear it. Zhang did not have the intention to prepare gifts for Gu Zhao at all.

Although he knew it, he didn't say anything, and there was no need to waste his talk for a useless chess.

"Why are you still calling me a wife?" Lin Weikang called Gu Zhao over with a signboard smile, "I remember in the future, I have to call him mother."

"Yes, I understand, father." Gu Zhao bowed to him, looking well-behaved.

Although this gold bracelet is old and rough, it is worth a lot of money. She just needs to use it when she is doing business.

As for Zhang Wan's careless gifts, she didn't care at all.

Lin Weikang picked up a wooden box of yellow rosewood from the table and handed it to Gu Zhao, "This is a gift for you for your father. From now on, this Duke's Mansion will be your home. If you have any questions, just tell your mother and elder sister, and don't treat yourself as an outsider."

"Yes, my daughter knows." Gu Zhao took the box and hugged it in his arms. His face was reserved and gentle, completely like a country girl after entering the city.

"Dad, mom, don't you feel sorry for me if you have a sister? I want a gift to you as well." Seeing this scene, Lin Xuerong hurriedly hugged Zhang's arm and acted coquettishly.

When Zhang saw her daughter acting cute, she immediately had kindness in her eyes and stretched out her fingers to point her nose.

"You kid, you just praised you for understanding the rules, and you are just beating me now. Isn't it a joke for my sister?

OK OK OK Don’t shake it, don’t shake it, I can’t stand your trouble. Let Madam Zhu take you to my warehouse to choose, what do you like, are you satisfied?"

Lin Xuerong looked proud, "Mom, you are not allowed to regret it. I have long been attracted by that set of ruby ​​face. Let Madam Zhu take it away for me today!"
