Gu Jinyu thought about it for a moment and said with a smile: "Grandma, tomorrow is a flower banquet hosted by the daughter-in-law of Huilinghou Mansion. Some ladies from Kyoto have been invited to play chess and enjoy the flowers. I would like to say that now I am not as happy as before.
I can’t even get out of my house, so why don’t you let Jinyan and I go play together tomorrow?”
Gu Jinyan is a waste, he can't do anything.
I have never even left the house before, and I don’t understand the etiquette of going out or playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting.
Asking her to go out once was a joke, but she wanted to see if the old lady treated her with the same appreciation as she did today.
In Gu Mansion, she is the only one who can stand out.
Do you really think that with a little bit of luck, you can surpass her in the house?
Don't even think about it.
A person like Gu Jinyan is only worthy of being lowered into the dust and carrying her shoes.
The old lady heard it.
It seems appropriate.
The two legitimate daughters in the family are almost of marriageable age.
Jinyan didn't like to go out before, and she didn't even want to come here. She has such a temperament, and the old lady doesn't force it. Kaiji is just such a girl, and the Gu family is also famous in Kyoto. As long as she doesn't marry anyone with such a character,
It can also protect one or two.
But now Jinyan is obedient and willing to come out.
The marriage that Mrs. Zheng chose for her earlier was not reliable. After breaking off the engagement, it would be good to go out and get to know more people.
"Jinyan, would you like to follow Jinyu for a walk?" the old lady asked.
Because Jinyan had protected her before, the old lady also treated her granddaughter with kindness and kindness. No matter what the younger generation is, if she has filial piety and can go out of her way to protect her grandmother, then she is a pure and kind person.
Gu Jinyan nodded: "Yes, grandma."
The old lady laughed heartily.
Yeah.
Gu Jinyan felt calm in her heart. Gu Jinyu was not a kind-hearted person. She knew what she had in mind.
In her last life, she kept a low profile and was taught by her master. In this life, she had already made up her mind that she would not live like her previous life. This was a good opportunity. Gu Jinyu offered it to her, so how could she not want it?
After talking to her children and grandchildren for a while, the old lady's energy became a little low.
Let them all go back.
Come out from the old lady.
Gu Jinyu glanced at Zheng. Zheng knew that something was going on, so she walked a few steps slowly.
When Gu Jinyu left, she passed by Zheng and whispered: "Don't let her dress too well."
Speaking of this, Gu Jinyu also looked angry.
In the past, Gu Jinyan dressed differently and looked frumpy and stupid, but he didn't realize that she was quite well-dressed and seemed to want to compare with her. Gu Jinyu would not allow such a situation to happen.
Mrs. Zheng nodded and understood.
Xiaomei, the maid next to Gu Jinyan, said: "Miss, Madam Shangshu, can she really do this?"
"In the past, the second young lady was a loser, and Madam Shangshu wanted to be good to you. But now that the second young lady has some support, she is afraid that Madam Shangshu..." The baby is prosperous.
"What are you afraid of? Madam Zheng knows that Gu Jinyan is useless and has been trying to please me since she was a child. Even if she gets better, will she be able to surpass me? I am the daughter of the Marquis of Zhenbei, the current daughter of Huang, Madam Zheng understands this
It makes sense, otherwise why would you please me since you were a child? She just wants me to pay more attention to her son in the future, who is Gu Jinyan?" Gu Jinyu said confidently.
I never thought that Mrs. Zheng would want to betray her.
She has no right to betray.
If Mrs. Zheng doesn't listen to her, she doesn't need to tell what will happen.
When Xiaomei heard this, she said with admiration: "The eldest lady is still smart, my slave's brain is as if it is made of wood."
Gu Jinyu was pleased by Xiaomei's words and looked arrogant: "You still have to learn more when you are with me, otherwise you will not be able to do things around me."
"Yes, Miss." Xiaomei responded respectfully.
Gu Jinyan returned to Zhangzhu Pavilion and lay down on the chair with a tired look on his face.
I'm thinking about tomorrow's banquet at Huilinghou Mansion.
Enjoy flowers and play chess.
It was clear at a glance what Gu Jinyu was planning.
In her previous life, her master loved to play chess, but she didn't like it very much. However, she was encouraged to play chess, and her chess skills were considered superb. Later on, she could even be as good as her master.
Just thinking about something.
Mrs. Zheng came with her maid.
"I'd like to say that you are going to Huilinghou's Mansion tomorrow. My mother-in-law has brought you a set of clothes. At least it is your first time to attend a banquet in another house. My daughter, you can't lose. This dress is from before.
It's ready, so I'll use it in advance now." Mrs. Zheng came over with an eager look on her face.
Ask the maid to hand the clothes she is carrying to Gu Jinyan to see.
Gu Jinyan took a look at the clothes.
I couldn't help but frown. Clothes in colors like peach are a bit gaudy in themselves. Few people look good in them. Usually our ladies don't like this color either.
And the peach-colored clothes are matched with lake green.
This dress can be said to be neither fish nor fowl.
It’s hard for Zheng to make people make such eye-catching clothes.
The materials used are excellent, and the jewelry is large, heavy and exaggerated.
If she wears something out and embarrasses others, Zheng can just justify it and no one can fault her. After all, it’s real money and silver. If it doesn’t look good, she can just say that she likes it. Whatever impression she leaves on people’s hearts is also her own.
Something happened.
Mrs. Zheng put down her clothes and told her to wear them tomorrow, then left without saying anything.
It was rare for Mrs. Zheng to be so kind to her. In Mrs. Zheng's eyes, she would have worn it with tears of gratitude.
I wouldn't have thought that she wouldn't want it at all.
And indeed.
It's not like she had never seen this dress before in her previous life, but she never went out in her previous life, so Zheng gave it to her to wear on her birthday.
No matter how much she was laughed at, she didn't need to say much.
Xiaochun had an expression that was hard to describe. No matter how good the material of this dress was, to be honest, it was not as good-looking as the clothes of the first-class maid in the mansion.
She was confused.
Or he asked: "Second Miss, do you really want to wear this tomorrow?"
If it had been in the past, Xiaochun would not have spoken, because the second young lady must have been immersed in the joy of her wife thinking about her.
But the second lady has changed a lot during this time.
He will no longer blindly obey his wife like before, and he will now resist.
She also couldn't figure out that she was the second young lady's biological mother, and how could someone harm her own daughter like this.
"Xiaochun, if you have anything to do, just say it directly. Look at your face, it's almost wrinkled into mochi." Gu Jinyan said amusedly.
In her last life, she didn't know that Xiaochun was thinking about her.
I have even been very dissatisfied with Xiaochun many times. I always feel that Xiaochun is the same as Zheng said, always guilty of the following, and feels that she, the second young lady, is easy to bully.
