There is a plum garden in the back garden of the Gu family. The plum blossoms usually bloom from February to March, usually in late winter and early spring, and they will bloom after the temperature has risen.

But it is only December now, and the plum blossoms in the Gu family have already bloomed early.

A cool breeze blew by, and the plum blossoms on the branches were blown down. They floated in the air with the wind, and fell to the ground in twos and threes, covering the ground with a thin carpet of plum blossoms. Some fell into the nearby pond, and the air was faintly filled with the faint fragrance of plum blossoms.

Not far from the pond there is a large rectangular pavilion with white frames on the four sides and a layer of transparent glass on top.

The shelves are decorated with vines, and under the pavilion is an extra-long classical sofa with a white piano next to it.

Three ladies, dressed gorgeously and with exquisite makeup, sat on the sofa and chatted, their jewelry shining particularly brightly.

"Madam, Miss Ji." Hearing the maid's respectful voice, the three ladies raised their heads at the same time, and saw Madam Gu bringing Ji Zhinan over, followed by four or five maids.

"Maureen." Madam Gui smiled brightly at Madam Gu. "You are finally here. We have been waiting for you for a long time."

In front of outsiders, Maureen was still the elegant and noble aristocratic lady. She adjusted the hairpin behind her ear and smiled gracefully: "I'm sorry for the delay due to some trivial matters."

The ladies smiled and said, "It's okay, as long as the person is here."

After she finished speaking, a noble lady noticed Ji Zhinan behind Mo Lin and asked in confusion: "Mo Lin, who is this?"

Ji Zhinan wore a beautiful classical long dress, with her long hair curled into small curls draped over one side of her shoulder. Behind her ear was a classical-style hairpin similar to Maureen's. Although her makeup was light, her beautiful oriental face added a lot of points to her, showing an oriental charm and beauty.

It has to be admitted that the moment they saw Ji Zhinan, the three noble ladies present were stunned.

Apart from the gentle and noble Mrs. Gu Maureen, this should be the most beautiful oriental girl they have ever seen.

She and Maureen had a different kind of beauty.

When Ji Zhinan was mentioned, Maureen's beautiful eyes softened unconsciously. She turned around, held Ji Zhinan's hand, and introduced him to the three ladies.

"This is my future daughter-in-law, Ji Zhinan."

“…”

Upon hearing this introduction, the three ladies were all stunned.

Isn't Mo Lin's future daughter-in-law Gu Yibei's...

Thinking of the rumors they had heard outside, the three ladies looked at each other, and finally one of them showed an extremely hypocritical smile and asked.

"Ji? Why don't I remember there being a noble with this surname in our Country Y? Besides... this Miss Ji looks very unfamiliar."

Maureen pulled Ji Zhinan to sit on the chair next to her and introduced him very calmly.

"Our Nannan is not from Country Y. She is from the capital of China."

"Huaguo..." The three of them looked at each other meaningfully, then sat back on the sofa. Their three pairs of ghost-like eyes stared straight at Ji Zhinan, as if they wanted to look her up and down, inside and out.

The maid brought snacks and black tea.

Among them, a noble lady picked up the red teacup in front of her, took a sip, raised her eyes generously, and glanced at Ji Zhinan.

"I heard that China is different from our country Y. There are no aristocratic families. In other words... Miss Ji is not a descendant of the nobility?"
