"I am her biological mother, how can I not do it for her?" Ms. Zheng had nothing to say and kept saying these words repeatedly.
Anyway, Ms. Zheng thought that as long as she bit this matter to death, the old lady wouldn't be able to do anything about her.
"No matter what your purpose is, you are not a competent mother here in Jinyan. You don't have to worry about Jinyan's affairs in the future. This is also what I said before. Everything about her, from daily life to her marriage, is determined by
I, the grandmother, take care of it." The old lady said solemnly: "From today on, you are banned in your own yard, and you are not allowed to come out again without my permission."
"As for Jin Yu, you have to understand that Jin Yan is my direct granddaughter. Her status is noble and she is the same as you in Gu Mansion. In the past, when you were still young, it was Zheng who brought you bad things.
Because of the influence, I won’t talk to you about the past things anymore, but starting from today, you have to change your understanding. Today, you come here to say that there is trouble here, copy the Buddhist scriptures fifty times, and I will review it myself." The old lady said.
"She slapped me twice, why don't you talk about her?" Gu Jinyu pointed at Gu Jinyan and said unconvinced.
"The eldest lady rushed up first and slapped the young lady." Xiaochun defended Gu Jinyan and argued unconvinced.
"Is that so? Jin Yu?" the old lady asked.
"She was the one who provoked me first." Gu Jinyu said confidently.
"Then tell me the truth. Why did she offend you? What did she offend you for?" The old lady said as calmly as possible.
Gu Jinyu couldn't explain it, she just felt unhappy, so she thought it was Gu Jinyan's fault.
"In that case, if you hit her and she fought back, what's the problem?" The old lady said, "Zheng is going to be grounded, and Jin Yu is going to copy Buddhist scriptures. If something like this happens again, don't blame me for being rude.
"
The courtyard of Zhangzhu Pavilion became colder.
Gu Jinyan and her four maids, especially the four maids, whose hair was all messed up, looked very embarrassed.
Gu Jinyan first saluted the old lady and Madam Hou: "Thank you, grandma and Madam Hou, for upholding justice."
"Jin Yan, you have been wronged, and grandma will compensate you in the future." The old lady said.
Gu Jinyan nodded, feeling a little downcast and not as lively as before. He just said, "Grandma, I'm fine. You go back first."
The old lady took Aunt Ying back first.
Mrs. Hou looked at Gu Jinyan's look and felt heartbroken: "Jinyan, are you okay? Are you hurt?"
Gu Jinyan shook his head, his eyes were a little red, but he still managed a smile and said: "It's okay, Madam Hou, I'm a little tired, you can go back first."
Madam Hou didn't know whether she should stay or not.
Finally he nodded.
"Okay, Xiaochun, you guys go and clean up yourselves first." Gu Jinyan arranged.
"Miss, we're fine, let's clean it up for you first." Xiaochun looked at Gu Jinyan and couldn't hold back her tears, so she wiped her tears with her sleeves.
The young lady has longed for the love of the madam since she was a child, but today the madam is clamoring to beat her, how can she not feel uncomfortable.
In fact, the most seriously injured person was the young lady.
"You go ahead." Gu Jinyan said firmly.
The four of them couldn't resist, so they could only hurriedly sort themselves out.
Gu Jinyan is indeed a little tired today, not because of Zheng, but because his whole body has been tense for such a long time, he is indeed a little tired.
Mrs. Zheng is not her biological mother, so she no longer has the slightest emotion for Mrs. Zheng.
It's just that many things are progressing very slowly nowadays. She wants to prove her identity, but she can't find a witness.
"Miss, we are ready." Xiaochun came over and said.
Gu Jinyan nodded: "You four did a great job today. You followed me and suffered a lot in the past."
"Here, this is a reward for you." Gu Jinyan took out the things he had just prepared.
"Miss." Xiaochun and the others don't want rewards, they just want the young lady to live a better life.
"I know your sincerity, but if you accept it, I will feel better." Gu Jinyan said.
All four people collected their things.
Gu Jinyan motioned for them to go out first and sat here quietly thinking about the problem.
Regent's Palace.
Xiao Yuheng listened to the news just reported by the secret guard.
Gu Jinyan's place has been calm during this period, but today something big happened, and the secret guards dare not not report it.
The more Xiao Yuheng heard what happened, the uglier his face became.
Eunuch Jing couldn't help but said: "Isn't it true that Miss Gu Er is not the biological child of the Zheng family? Even the wives of those aristocratic families in Kyoto, no matter how unkind they are to their own daughters, are not like this."
"Miss Gu Er's life was really miserable when she was a child. At that time, she was so young and could only be bullied. Could it be that it was because of this that Miss Gu Er learned so many things? Now that she has grown up, she can compete with her.
?”
"Miss Gu Er is really miserable. Her life is worse than that of a servant like me."
Xiao Yuheng slammed the table hard, startling Eunuch Jing. Fortunately, the secret guard was well-informed and was not frightened.
This actually reminded the secret guard of something: "It is possible."
"Ah?" Eunuch Jing was shocked. He just said casually, is there really a problem with Miss Gu's identity?
"The Marquis of Zhenbei and the old lady seem to be checking the circumstances of the child's birth, but there has been no progress. The daughter of Marquis Zhenbei and the daughter of Shangshu were born on the same day, but at different times. Mrs. Zhenbei Marquis,
So the daughter of the Marquis of Zhenbei is Miss Gu." The secret guard said: "In such a situation, it is easy to change the civet cat for the prince."
After hearing this, Eunuch Jing opened his mouth in surprise.
There is such a thing.
"I didn't expect that the Gu family, which has always had a good family tradition, would encounter something like this." Eunuch Jing said, "If this is true, this is unheard of."
"But if it's true, it's quite reasonable. Otherwise, how can we explain Zheng's behavior? Just how much hatred does Zheng have between Zhenbeihou and Mrs. Zhenbeihou? Zhenbeihou is the queen of the general family, so Zheng is a small businessman, and she also has a good relationship.
If you don’t have a grudge, then you are not from the same family. If Mrs. Zheng hadn’t married Lord Shangshu, she wouldn’t have been able to get in touch with someone of Madam Zhenbei’s status.”
Eunuch Jing analyzed it nonchalantly: "Could it be jealousy? Jealousy can make people's hearts ugly. It just hurts Miss Gu Er. I really don't know what kind of life Miss Gu Er lived when she was a child."
"Master, let's..."
Before Jinggong finished speaking, Xiao Yuheng stood up and walked out. At the same time, he ordered the secret guard: "Arrange someone to help Zhenbei Hou find evidence together."
Then the person disappeared directly.
Eunuch Jing looked confused: "What are you doing at this late hour?"
