Chapter 116: Blind Eyes

Gu Yunyao glanced at her grandma and old servant Ding, smiling lightly.

Mammy gritted her teeth secretly, scolding her in her mind. Gu Qingxue was really looking for trouble. She was so talkative that it made her come to salute.

But in his house, what Gu Yunyao said was indeed reasonable and there was no way to refute it.

"Old slave..."

Before grandma's legs could bend, Gu Qingxue held her arm: "Mom, there's no need to be polite."

Gu Qingxue looked at Gu Yunyao displeased: "Second sister, these two are stewards of the Duke's wife. How can their status be compared with ordinary servants? Isn't it arrogant for you to act like this?"

Gu Yunyao looked at her like she was a fool: "It's not up to you to say whether the county owner is arrogant or not. Mom, do you think the county owner is arrogant?"

Mammy lowered her eyes and whispered: "How dare this old slave do? The county master has a noble status, and this old slave is still a slave no matter what. It should be right."

What can she say? My father-in-law is in the carriage outside. He can hear him louder from here.

When I arrived, the Duke had already said that when I arrived, I would behave according to the rules, and when I left, I would not allow any extraneous matters.

If they follow the lady, they can show off their power, but if they follow the Duke of the country, they can only be honest and obedient.

Therefore, not to mention extraneous problems, they did not even dare to ask for the money given by the Second Madam and Gu Qingxue.

He hurriedly saluted and forced a smile: "County Master, I still have some chores to do, please leave first."

Gu Qingxue didn't want to just let it go. She had to have a good relationship with the people around the Duke's wife. It would be best if she could sell to them. It would be best to conquer them.

Gu Yunyao made things difficult for them, so she insisted on saving them.

Grandma and the steward walked out, and Gu Qingxue quickly caught up with her: "Mammy, stay!"

"Miss Gu, is there anything else?" Grandma suppressed her impatience.

"Don't be afraid, and don't have to compromise. This is the Gu family, and I won't let others bully you."

Grandma: “??”

"Miss Gu, no one is bullying us. As a slave, it is natural for us to bow to noble people."

"How can we generalize between slaves and slaves? I know that you are the people close to the Duke's wife, and you are always respected. Ordinary ladies and gentlemen would respect you..."

The steward quickly glanced at the direction of the carriage from the corner of his eye: "We don't have it, Miss Gu, we are just ordinary slaves. You made the mistake of lifting us up. Take your leave."

The two of them exchanged looks and left quickly, otherwise they would be killed by this idiot.

Gu Qingxue still wanted to stop her, but Gu Yunyao said calmly: "You'd better not stop me. Didn't you hear that there is something else? I still have to go to Su's house."

As soon as the Su family was mentioned, Gu Qingxue immediately exploded: "Su family? Who is Su Wanning? Is she worthy of being compared with me?"

Gu Yunyao was surprised: "My brother is a new talent, and she was almost named the county head. Although she was removed later, she was named at least. Who are you? What do you have?"

"I am the concubine of the General's Mansion!"

"But the general is not your father, your father is a businessman," Gu Yunyao smiled, "My father earned that plaque at the door. If you move out, you have to call it Gu's house."

Each word was like a slap in the face, hitting Gu Qingxue on the face.

Seeing that the situation was not going well, the second lady hurriedly came over to persuade them: "Okay, we are all one family, sisters, what are you talking about?

How can we move out if we can't write two characters in one sentence?"

Gu Qingxue held up the hairpin on her head and said, "Second sister, you don't know yet, right? Just now, grandma and the steward came to check the betrothal gift list and took my birth certificate. From now on, the person who is engaged to the prince is me.

"

"Those betrothal gifts are mine too, and I don't get any more from you."

"Oh," Gu Yunyao didn't care, "I have to thank you, otherwise I would have to find someone to move back after I broke off the engagement. Those things are not troublesome enough."

"Oh, you're not willing to give in, are you?"

Gu Yunyao was too lazy to argue with this idiot anymore. It was really pointless. With her brains, she couldn't even compare to Gu Qingwen. There was no sense of accomplishment in winning.

She turned to leave, but Gu Qingxue said again: "Are you angry with shame? Are you leaving now?"

Gu Yunyao turned around and was about to speak when she suddenly heard a commotion outside.

"That car, please give way!"

The nuns and stewards of the Duke's Mansion hurriedly took the opportunity to go out and saw a dozen people arriving outside, driving three carriages.

The leader was wearing a black guard uniform and carrying a machete at his waist, looking majestic.

The coachman of Duke Guo's Mansion was hesitating when Rong Guo Gong whispered: "Back off."

The car moved out of the way and Chunni appeared at the gate. Seeing Gu Yunyao, he strode forward and saluted: "Greetings to the county lord!"

"Chunni, why are you here?" Gu Yunyao asked.

"Back to the County Lord, my subordinates have been ordered by the prince to deliver something to the County Lord." Chunni turned around and shouted towards the door, "Bring it in!"

Gu Qingxue twisted the handkerchief and stretched her neck to look. Chunni came to her side and drew out her waist knife: "Anyone who has nothing to do with it, please step back and don't block the way."

Gu Qingxue wanted to retort, but looked at the shining knife and swallowed her words back.

The second lady took her aside.

The first thing to be carried in was a fiery red coral. It was a bit difficult for both of them to lift it together. Not to mention such a big one, it was very rare to see it just because of its fiery red color.

This red color dyed through the eyes of Gu Qingxue and the second lady.

Then there is a smoky blue thin vase, a small sapphire cauldron, a few paintings and calligraphy by famous artists...

Then there are several mahogany boxes, opened one by one, some jade, gems, pearls, medicinal materials...

And so on.

There are also dozens of brocades of various colors and more than a dozen furs, all colorful and beautiful in the sun.

Gu Yunyao felt like her eyes were going to be blinded.

Gu Qingxue and the second lady were so jealous that they were already blind.

The second lady thought bitterly: No wonder Gu Yunyao said that the things sent by the Duke's Mansion were "those things". In comparison, they were indeed.

Gu Qingxue gritted her teeth and said: "How many times have you raised your eyebrows now? The Prince of Qin's Palace is too stingy. Second sister, it seems that His Highness the Prince of Qin doesn't care much about you."

Gu Yunyao shouted: "If you are blind, just say it. Don't make blind remarks."

"you……"

Chunni took out a small box and opened the lid, revealing two huge luminous pearls.

He handed his hands to Gu Yunyao and said loudly: "County Master, the prince said that this is not a betrothal gift. Yesterday, the prince went to the warehouse and saw these things and said that he would send them to the county head first for you to play with and make clothes.

The betrothal gift is still being prepared, please wait patiently, the prince also said that this is a big event, and you must choose an auspicious day, so don't be hasty."

Gu Yunyao just wanted to applaud, Chunni was so powerful.

Gu Qingxue's face turned pale, and her eyes turned blind again and again when she looked at those things.

The second lady suppressed her rapid breathing, her eyes wishing to stick to the brocade, fur and jewelry.

"Ayao, Second Aunt will arrange for someone to deliver the things to the warehouse."

"No need," Gu Yunyao refused, "My mother and I will naturally take care of my things, so the second lady doesn't have to worry.

Besides, everything given by the prince is extremely precious, how can it be put together with Gu Qingxue's betrothal gifts? I'm afraid it will stain the prince's mind. "

"you……"

"Also, call the county master," Gu Yunyao interrupted her, "seeing that you are so happy about being a concubine today, I will spare you this once.

Next time, one word, one slap."

Gu Qingxue was dissatisfied and wanted to argue, but she swung the clay knife.

"Come here, carry the things to the county owner's yard."

"yes!"

Follow Gu Yunyao in a mighty way.

When the old lady came after hearing the news, her things had already been moved away.

The second lady was so jealous that she went crazy: "Mom, Yunyao is too shameful.

How can she keep those things by herself? They should be delivered to you no matter what."

The old lady was not happy either, but she didn't see it with her own eyes, so she didn't feel too distressed at all.
