Because of Gu Shaoyong's ruthlessness and Gu Chonghu's favoritism, Yun Duo's ancestral recognition, while not exactly ending in discord, was certainly not a pleasant affair either.
Of course, the main reason was that Gu Shaozong was unhappy.
By using his father's power to suppress his elder brother and prevent him from easily harming his daughter, Gu Shaoyong had achieved his main goal. As for whether others were happy or not, it didn't matter at all.
Anyway, he's only refraining from harming his "good older brother" for the sake of their father. If his "good older brother" does anything else, he can't be blamed for disregarding brotherly affection.
Gu Shaozong was unhappy, and naturally his wife and children were also unhappy.
Especially Gu Pingting. After being hugged and cried by her mother, her disgust for Yun Duo reached the pinnacle of a child's disgust for a person.
Gu Pingting was about the same age as Yun Duo, not yet old enough to control her emotions. Taking advantage of Yun Duo being alone, she ran up to Yun Duo, spat on her, and said to Yun Duo in a 'disdainful' tone, "Pah! You wild child from the countryside."
Yun Duo gave Gu Pingting a half-smile, but said nothing.
She wouldn't stoop to arguing with a little girl.
Of course... if she goes too far, she doesn't mind 'teaching her a lesson'.
Yun Duo's glance was rather strange. In Gu Pingting's eyes, it was as if Yun Duo looked down on her, and a sense of humiliation inexplicably rose in her heart, as if she had been insulted.
"What are you looking at? You're a wild child, raised in the countryside, all dark and dirty, you're so embarrassing!" Gu Pingting said in a low voice to Yun Duo, her tone fierce but her voice weak.
Yun Duo suddenly smiled and looked at Gu Pingting, saying, "Gu Pingting, your name is Gu Pingting, right? It's a very nice name."
Hearing Yun Duo 'praise' her, Gu Pingting subconsciously assumed that Yun Duo was trying to curry favor with her. She immediately turned her head arrogantly, let out a cold snort from her nose, and raised her neck high, fully demonstrating her 'disdain' for Yun Duo.
Country folk are just like country folk. She still tries to please me even though I look down on her. She's shameless.
Gu Pingting thought to herself, feeling a little proud.
Yun Duo completely ignored Gu Pingting's expression and continued, "You're from the city, so you must have gone to school and know quite a lot, right?"
“I am Miss Gu, a member of the upper class!” Gu Pingting raised her neck and proudly corrected Yun Duo’s statement before saying, “I have been in school for several years and have learned a lot of knowledge, so of course I know a lot.”
Yun Duo then asked, "Do you know what kind of person would be called a wild child?"
Gu Pingting replied without hesitation, "Of course, it's someone like you. Growing up in the countryside, you don't know anything, you're dark and unclean, and you have no manners—you're just a wild child!"
That brat!
Yun Duo was a little displeased and glared at Gu Pingting, asking, "Which eye of yours saw that I'm unclean?"
The clouds were spotless, not even their fingernails were left, everything was neatly trimmed and rounded, and their clothes were without a single wrinkle.
Gu Pingting couldn't find anything unclean about Yun Duo's body, and somewhat annoyed, she said rudely, "You're all black, so you're not clean!"
