After Princess Pingyang left, Madam Mu took Gu Yunran's hand and comforted her: "Princess Pingyang has been spoiled by the late emperor. She speaks without restraint. Don't take it to heart."
Gu Yunran's expression was calm: "Grandma, I'm fine."
If she cared so much about what others thought of her, she would not have married Mu Qianchen. She would have become a nun and followed the Buddha's teachings long ago.
Mrs. Mu breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Gu Yunran really didn't take it to heart.
Gu Yunran chatted with Madam Mu for a few more words and then went out. As soon as she left, Qin followed her.
Qin quickened her pace and soon caught up with Gu Yunran. She stopped beside her and snorted, "How shameless! If I were you, I would have no face to live in this world."
Gu Yunran looked up at Qin. "Is this the upbringing of the eldest lady? Grandmother hasn't said anything yet, and you're already talking nonsense in front of me! You deserve it. You've been in the Mu family for so long, and Grandmother is unwilling to hand over the reins of the family to you."
After Gu Yunran finished speaking, she smiled lightly and walked away without paying any attention to the ugly expressions on her roommates' faces.
Qin was stunned for a long while, and she didn't react at all. When she finally reacted, she was shaking with anger, pointing at Gu Yunran's back and stomping her feet: "She, she, she, is she laughing at me?"
"How dare a divorced woman laugh at me?!"
Qin was so angry that she started to cry. Her mother stroked her back and comforted her: "Madam, calm down. It's not worth it to get yourself hurt because of such an unreasonable young man."
"Hmph!" Qin swung her sleeves in anger.
Many people came today, most of them came for Mu Qianxue. Mu Qianxue was surrounded by a group of people and asked all kinds of questions.
There are both men and women.
Gu Yunran was too lazy to join in the fun, so she went to the garden and found a pavilion to sit down.
She looked up at the lotus pond and found that there was a pavilion on the small island in the middle of the lake. Princess Pingyang Mu Qianjiao and a little girl she didn't recognize were sitting inside.
A few people were talking and laughing in the pavilion. No one knew what they were talking about, but Gu Yunran felt that they would cast a few glances at him from time to time, as if they were looking at him.
She found it really boring, so she got up and left.
Over at the pavilion, Princess Pingyang held a little maid's hand and pointed at Gu Yunran, saying, "Rainbow, did you see that? That's Gu Yunran, a divorced woman. Although she's pretty, you're younger than her. I don't know what kind of drug she gave Brother Chen to make him so bewildered."
Mu Qianjiao snorted, "She's quite resourceful. Before they even got married, she already got together with my second brother, and she even got pregnant. My second brother had no choice but to marry her."
Having said that, Mu Qianjiao took Qin Caihong's hand and sighed, "Alas, if it weren't for her tricks, you would be my second sister-in-law now, and there would be no place for her, Gu Yunran."
Qin Caihong stared fiercely at Gu Yunran's receding figure and shook off Mu Qianjiao's hand: "I want to go meet her and see how powerful she is."
"Hey...don't..."
Mu Qianjiao wanted to stop her, but Qin Caihong had already run after Gu Yunran.
Gu Yunran was pregnant and walked slowly. Qin Caihong ran madly to catch up with her. She opened her arms to stop Gu Yunran: "Stop!"
Gu Yunran looked at the plump, arrogant woman in front of him and frowned slightly: "Who are you? I don't know you, why are you blocking my way?"
Qin Caihong put her hands on her waist, and with her almond-shaped eyes, she looked Gu Yunran up and down, snorting and mocking her: "She has some looks, but she uses this face to seduce men, isn't that mean!"
Bang!
Gu Yunran slapped Qin Caihong in the face, "Whose young lady is so unruly!"
"Your mother couldn't teach you a lesson, so I'll teach you a lesson for her!"
Qin Caihong was spoiled at home. She had seven older brothers and was her father's youngest daughter. She was so spoiled that she was domineering. How could she have suffered such humiliation?
She reached out and pushed Gu Yunran, who wasn't paying attention and stumbled and almost fell down. Fortunately, Ruizhu supported her in time: "Second Madam, be careful!"
After helping Gu Yunran, Ruizhu was ready to teach Qin Caihong another lesson. However, before she could do anything, Qin Caihong fell into the lake with a splash.
"Ah! Help, I can't swim!"
It was freezing cold now, and the water was very cold, icy. Qin Caihong felt her whole body was numb from the cold, and she was slowly sinking.
When Mu Qianjiao saw Qin Caihong fall into the water, she was stunned and stood on the shore, holding her head and crying.
"Cousin, you have to hold it in! I, I'll go call for help."
Princess Pingyang stood aside with her arms folded across her chest, watching the fun.
Mu Qianjiao ran while crying: "Someone come, someone come, murder! Murder!"
Many noble ladies from aristocratic families were chatting happily in the front hall. When they heard Mu Qianjiao's cry, they all asked worriedly, "What's going on?"
Mu Qianxue's pretty eyebrows frowned: "Jiaojiao, what happened? Tell me properly."
Mu Qianjiao was crying so hard that she was out of breath. She pointed at the lake on the other side of the garden and said incoherently, "He fell into the water and is going to die."
"Who fell into the water?"
"Gu, Gu Yunran pushed Caihong into the water. She can't swim. She's about to die."
"Hurry up and save them!" Mu Qianxue was not panicked. He called the maid who knew how to swim to go to the lake, and then told Su Xin: "Hurry up and report to Grandmother."
After all, she was a guest, and she didn't know how to deal with something like this.
"yes."
Su Xin hurried to find the old lady, and Mu Qianxue took some girls from noble families and maids to rescue people.
Princess Pingyang heard footsteps and quickly put away her gloating expression. She ordered the maid beside her: "Go and save them!"
"yes."
Her personal maid could swim very well. At Princess Pingyang's command, she jumped into the lake to save people.
By the time Mu Qianxue and her group arrived, Qin Caihong had already been rescued by Princess Pingyang's personal maid.
But Chen Caihong had already fainted, her face was pale and her lips were purple.
“Get out of the way!”
Mu Qianxue shouted harshly. She half-knelt on the ground and pressed Qin Caihong's chest to squeeze out the water in her stomach.
"puff!"
After spitting out several mouthfuls of water, Qin Caihong slowly woke up, but her lips were trembling violently, and she seemed to have not recovered for a while.
Mu Qianxue took off her fox fur cloak and wrapped it around Qin Caihong.
"Rainbow, it's okay."
However, Mu Qianxue's face was blue and purple from the cold, but she seemed not to feel it. All her thoughts were on Qin Caihong, and she picked her up and held her in her arms.
Madam Mu hurried over, followed by Qin. Seeing her niece almost drowned, she was furious and pointed at Gu Yunran and cursed, "Gu Yunran, how can you be so vicious? How did Caihong provoke you that you would kill her?"
Su Xin had already told the old lady everything. Qin was listening beside her. She wished she could skin Gu Yunran alive.
