Chapter 52: Not Clear
Chapter 52 Unknown
Seeing that Gu Yanfei did not speak, the maid Qingshuang was a little nervous, for fear that she would not go, she called again: “Second girl?”
“Let’s lead the way.” Gu Yanfei gently stroked his sleeve and said lightly.
She will go meet the British duchess, and see what the Fang family is planning.
Qingshuang breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to make a petition: “Second girl, please come with the servant.”
Gu Yanfei followed with a stroll, the two passed through the Waiyi Gate, then walked through a courtyard paved with bluestone bricks, and came to the hall of the outer courtyard of the Hou Mansion.
The five doors of the hall were wide open, and several lanterns were lit inside, and the bright lights illuminated the entire hall.
Mrs. Gu Tai sat at the top as the host, and two guests, a man and a woman, sat on the two red sandalwood chairs on the left.
The female guest at the bottom is about thirty-five or six years old, wearing a ginger-yellow golden pine and crane pattern engraved silk robe. Smile, look indifferent.
is the British Duchess.
Sitting next to her is a blue-clothed young man of about seventeen years old, with a tall and straight body, and half of his face is handsome.
Gu Yanfei didn’t expect Fang Mingfeng to be there, so he raised his eyebrows.
The little maid who was guarding under the corridor saluted respectfully: “Second girl.”
The three words made the three people in the hall realize that Gu Yan was coming, and they all looked at her with different expressions.
Fang Mingfeng turned his head, and the other half of his face was exposed.
The wounds on the left half of the face that were stabbed by the flower thorns have healed and scabbed off, but the new skin is different from the surrounding skin color, showing flesh red, densely packed, and somewhat terrifying.
is a handsome face, in this case it is not good-looking.
As soon as he saw Gu Yanfei, Fang Mingfeng couldn’t help but think of what happened in Jingwang’s mansion, and the murderous intention that had been suppressed for several days resurfaced: If it wasn’t for Gu Yanfei, he and Gu Yuncong would have been together long ago! !
His dark eyes showed a strong wickedness and murderous intent, flying towards Gu Yan like lightning.
Gu Yanfei’s footsteps did not stop, he calmly carried his skirt and crossed the high threshold of the hall.
As soon as she entered the room, she felt that there was something wrong with the atmosphere in the hall. Mrs. Gu and the British lady-in-law all looked indifferent, while the little maids serving by the side lowered their heads, looking like a chill.
The British lady-in-law gave Gu Yanfei a contemptuous glance, then lowered her head and drank tea, apparently not taking Gu Yanfei in her eyes, just like in her previous life.
Gu Yanfei ignored the strange atmosphere, walked to Mrs. Gu Tai calmly, and blessed her casually: “Mrs. Tai.”
Mrs. Gu Tai, who was at the top, did not speak with a cold face, and Gu Yanfei didn’t care. After seeing the ceremony, she sat down on her own.
Ever since Gu Yanfei returned to Hou’s mansion, Mrs. Gu Tai never let her come to save her in the morning and evening. She was deliberately cold to her. This was an attitude of Mrs. Gu Tai, so that everyone in Hou’s mansion knew that she didn’t like Gu Yanfei.
However, these days Gu Yanfei has remained motionless.
Mrs. Gu Tai did not let her please, so Gu Yanfei naturally refused to go.
Just like now, Gu Yanfei didn’t care about Madam Gu Tai’s indifference and ignorance at all.
Whether it is Mrs. Gu Tai’s indifference, the contempt of the British lady-in-law, or Fang Mingfeng’s resentment, it seems that it has nothing to do with her.
After pretending to drink two sips of tea, the British lady put down the pastel tea cup for Ma Gu’s birthday, and took the lead in breaking the silence: “Does Mrs. Tai really want to regret the marriage?”
The British lady’s tone was restrained, but it was difficult to conceal the aggressiveness in it.
“…” Mrs. Gu Tai pursed her lips.
Naturally, she doesn’t want to regret her marriage. Repenting her marriage means that the Gu family has completely offended the Fang family. Not only will the decades of friendship between the two families cease to exist, but they will also become enemies. However, she is even more reluctant to marry Gu Yunchang to Fang Mingfeng.
Fang Mingfeng is excellent, but it can’t be compared with King Kang, not to mention that offending King Kang is obviously more serious than offending the Fang family.
Originally, Mrs. Gu Tai could use Gu Yanfei to prevaricate the Fang family, but, with Queen Mother Yuan’s golden words in front, even if Mrs. Gu Tai insisted on using Gu Yanfei to replace her, it would not work.
In her thoughts, Mrs. Gu Tai glanced at Gu Yanfei from the corner of her eyes again, her forehead throbbing suddenly.
Gu Yanfei, this girl is a death star!
First, she killed her biological mother as soon as she was born. Fourteen years later, when she returned to the Hou Mansion, she took care of the family, and everything went wrong in the family.
Mrs. Gu Tai’s eyes were dark and deep, and she suddenly tightened the hand holding the string of Buddha beads. The thoughts that had been lingering these days came to a conclusion at this moment——
If the two girls had not been secretly exchanged back then, maybe the Marquis Mansion had been deprived of a family by Gu Yanfei over the past 14 years.
Mrs. Gu Tai suppressed the irritability in her heart, put down her body, and sighed at the British lady-in-law: “Hey, my granddaughter is not lucky…” She wanted to belittle Gu Yanfei, but after looking at Gu Yanfei, she felt that she was mentioned. The name is not good, so I bit the tip of my tongue and let the salty smell spread to my mouth, “This marriage should be done here.”
The last sentence was extremely difficult to say, and Mrs. Gu Tai’s heart was bleeding.
Generally speaking, unless it is to deliberately disgust the other party, even if one of the two parties to the marriage quits in the middle of the relationship, for the sake of the woman’s reputation, the man will not make a big fuss. The attention of other families, like this, is good for both parties.
Now Mrs. Gu Tai’s attitude has been made clear, that is, she agrees with the man to put all the faults on the woman’s body, the woman has no luck, and it can be regarded as venting the man’s anger.
“…” The British lady’s expression was like a cloud of clouds, a pair of delicate red hands clenched in her sleeves, and her eyes flashed with mixed emotions of resentment, shame and hesitation.
This is simply a shame for the Fang family! The British duchess could not wait to leave, but she held back.
Gu Yanfei could of course also hear what Mrs. Gu Tai meant, and even captured the indignation and hesitation in the eyes of the British duchess, and a little thought rose in her heart.
Gu Yunchang is now “unknown”. With her status as a British public government, the British lady-in-law would not be reluctant to part with her daughter-in-law. As for herself, from the experience of the previous life, the British lady-in-law looked down on herself at all.
So, things have come to this point, and it stands to reason that the British lady-in-law should break off the marriage logically.
So, what is she hesitating about? !
In my last life, I was really blind and blind. I turned a blind eye to these unreasonable places and closed myself in a small world…
