Chapter 59: Fake Daughter, Really Sickly (Forty-three)
Since her “sister” was getting married, as an elder sister, Gu Qingcheng had to go back to attend the wedding ceremony.
One also has to participate in the dowry before the wedding ceremony.
Gu Qingcheng didn't really want to go.
Without having to think about it, Gu Qingcheng knew what kind of Zhou Baozhu she would face when she returned to the Zhou family.
Sure enough, on the day of adding makeup, Gu Qingcheng had to go to Zhou's house due to the rules, and happened to see Zhou Baozhu's smug and arrogant look.
"Oh, my sister is here too? Don't you need to stay at home and serve the Duke?"
"Don't blame me, sister. I care about you too..."
Yeah, Gu Qingcheng was right.
The Han family encountered troubles one after another and seemed to be on the verge of defeat.
As for Zhou Baozhu, she really took the opportunity to bully her daughter-in-law "Zhou Qingcheng" in public!
Gu Qingcheng lowered her head and said nothing, as if she was really hit by Zhou Baozhu.
When Zhou Baozhu saw that "Zhou Qingcheng" had become cowardly and no longer as complacent as before, she suddenly felt extremely happy.
She continued to say what Gu Qingcheng had guessed long ago: "My son Chen is the most ambitious. He knows that he is a bastard and has no other help, so he has been studying hard since he was young."
"Sister, you may not know this, but my Chen Lang is a student of Qingyun Academy, and his teacher is Mr. Meng Changmeng."
Unlike Han Ding, whom Zhou Qingcheng married, he was not good at studying and could not even stay in Qingyun Academy, let alone the Imperial College.
Humph, what a waste.
Gu Qingcheng continued to remain silent.
"Also, my son Chen has passed the imperial examination. He will definitely pass the imperial examination next spring."
"Chen Lang is handsome, he must be the third place winner!"
When Zhou Baozhu said this, she raised her chin proudly.
She is not bragging. In her previous life, Chen Chen was the third place in the imperial examination.
Unfortunately, when he was paraded through the streets on horseback, Zhou Baozhu was forcibly sent to a nunnery.
She didn't get to see the spectacle at all.
However, she will not miss it in this life.
She could still stand proudly on the high ground when the noble ladies in the capital threw purses and bouquets at the scholar who won the imperial examination.
That man is my husband, Zhou Baozhu! He loves me deeply and obeys me in everything.
My family is partial to me. So what if I don't have any parental kinship? I still have my aunt and Chen Lang! Gu Qingcheng: ...
After hearing so much showing off, she felt nothing at all and even felt like laughing.
Tsk, she really guessed everything right, there is nothing new at all.
Leaving behind a set of head ornaments that she had randomly chosen from her dowry, Gu Qingcheng stood up and said, "I have something else to do at home, so I'll leave first!"
Zhou Baozhu was feeling most proud, but she didn't expect "Zhou Qingcheng" to refuse to cooperate.
She opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but Gu Qingcheng brought out Zhou Baozhu's words that had just been used to bully her and retorted, "Sister cares about me the most, so I don't think she would embarrass me, right?"
Zhou Baozhu: ...
Humph, what are you so proud of? Do you really think the Han family is the same as before? In fact, what Zhou Baozhu wanted to show off the most was something she couldn't say: My husband will soon become a loyal minister of the new emperor.
He held a high position at a young age, became a cabinet minister, and enjoyed glory for decades.
What a pity, she can’t say it!
She was really suffocating.
Zhou Baozhu tried her best to suppress the urge to show off and watched Gu Qingcheng leave.
Han Ding waited outside the Jingning Marquis's Mansion on purpose.
He guessed that his wife would not stay in Zhou's house for long.
However, when he really saw his wife coming out of Zhou's house soon, a chill appeared in his gloomy eyes.
"Why? Did they treat you badly? Or did Zhou Baozhu take the opportunity to bully you?"
Han Ding knew all too well those villains who took advantage of the situation.
The Zhou family, from the very beginning, formed an alliance with the Han family with the intention of currying favor with them.
The Han family showed signs of decline, so the Zhou family would naturally -
"No! I just don't feel like I can get close to Zhou Baozhu."
Gu Qingcheng smiled softly and timidly, she had no intention of gossiping at all.
Han Ding pursed his lips and said nothing. He didn't believe what Gu Qingcheng said at all.
He knew that his wife had always been well-behaved and revered him as a god.
She would not tolerate anyone else's blasphemy, and she would never take the rumors spread by outsiders seriously!
The less Gu Qingcheng took the initiative to express her grievances, the more distressed Han Ding felt.
He secretly made a note of the Zhou family in his little notebook.
There was also Chen Chen, Zhou Baozhu's husband, who was also justifiedly angered by Han Ding.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
After sending Gu Qingcheng home, Han Ding left the house.
He first ordered the servant, "Quickly close the net! Within three days, I will hear that someone has gone to Jingzhao Prefecture to sue the Jingning Marquis' Mansion!"
The servant quickly responded, "Yes! As you command!"
After giving the order, Han Ding went straight to Yang's Restaurant.
He is different from Chen Chen.
Chen Chen was only the seventh prince's disciple, and was considered half a slave.
And Han Ding is the partner of the seventh prince.
His Han family army and Queen Han in the palace play a vital role in whether the Seventh Prince can surpass the previous princes and ascend to the throne! Seventh Prince: ...Headache, crazy Han Ding is the most troublesome.
However, Chen Chen, oh no, Zhou Baozhu is still useful and cannot be punished for the time being.
Han Ding was his partner, so the Seventh Prince did not hide anything and simply mentioned Zhou Baozhu's usefulness.
"To predict the future?"
A strange light flashed in Han Ding's eyes, "It's quite interesting!"
What he said was interesting. He not only thought Zhou Baozhu was interesting, but also Chen Chen, who was so ruthless as to marry someone home for the sake of a secret, was very interesting! This world is not so boring after all.
Han Ding returned to Qingsongyuan.
Gu Qingcheng was sitting leisurely by the window reading a book, and maids such as Peilan and Zelan were serving her diligently and attentively.
Han Ding never saw a maid like Peilan. He just felt that his wife, who read books, was comfortable, quiet, and beautiful like a painting.
"My Lord, you are back?"
Han Ding didn't say anything, but Gu Qingcheng felt the dangerous aura.
She pretended to raise her head casually and met Han Ding's admiring eyes.
She immediately sat up, her beautiful face filled with surprise and joy, and her beautiful eyes were as bright as stars.
It was obvious that she was very happy with Han Ding's return. Her love for the gods and her lover seemed to come from the bottom of her heart.
Han Ding became happier.
"Are you so glad I'm back?"
"Yeah! Of course I'm happy!"
"…Let me tell you an interesting story. It has something to do with your 'real' sister."
Gu Qingcheng: ...
My scalp was a little numb, and I felt that the story would subvert my cognition! As expected——
Han Ding told the truth about why Chen Chen fell in love with Zhou Baozhu at first sight and actively proposed to her.
Gu Qingcheng widened her eyes.
This time, she wasn't acting, she was genuinely surprised:
It turns out that the husband who doted on the reborn Zhou Baozhu in the story copy actually discovered her "predicted" secret, which is why -
Not only her, but even Huoshui couldn't help but say "Oh shit" in the depths of his consciousness for a while.
The online article appears to be a sweet pet story, but in fact, it hides such a cruel truth!
Think about it, how can a person who follows a low-key prince to counterattack and reach the pinnacle of life really be a love-brained person who only knows about love?
PS: After all the precautions, my husband and his family were caught, and I became the chosen cook. I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but I always feel uncomfortable everywhere. Let’s see the situation today and I won’t add more updates. Dear friends, everyone should take precautions, protect yourself and your family, come on! ヾ(°°)
