Chapter 1433 Hu Jiarong's Jealousy
Because the children raised are not as good as their own, there are many stepmothers and stepfathers who treat other people's children badly.
"Very good, actually..." Gu Man responded, and she realized that Hu Jiarong might have misunderstood that her current husband was Gu Ning's stepfather. She wanted to explain something, but before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by an external voice.
"Mrs. Tang"
The lady named Gu Man was a noblewoman, and she had two friends with her. They had just arrived and were looking for a seat when they saw Gu Man and her friends, so they came over to say hello.
The two friends of "Mrs. Tang" also greeted Gu Man politely.
"Mrs. Qu, Mrs. Yu, Mrs. Zhuang." Gu Ning stood up and responded politely as a courtesy when seeing her.
"Mrs. Tang, please sit down quickly! You are pregnant!" Mrs. Qu saw Gu Man standing up and hurriedly stopped her. So Gu Man stood halfway, then sat down again and said, "Then I won't be polite."
Mrs. Qu knew that Gu Man was pregnant because she had some contacts with Gu Man and would contact her occasionally. A few days ago, Mrs. Qu asked Gu Man to come out for a gathering, and Gu Man told her, so Mrs. Qu knew about it.
Hu Jiarong didn't know Madam Qu, but she knew Madam Zhuang who was with Madam Qu. She was a real wealthy lady! Although Hu Jiarong knew the lady, she didn't know her, so she couldn't say hello.
Hu Jiarong's family is a bit rich, with assets worth hundreds of millions. Although to ordinary people, their family is a wealthy family, but to the real wealthy families, their family is just an ordinary family.
Hu Jiarong is still self-aware of this.
However, this Madam Zhuang actually knew Gu Man, and she was so polite when she greeted Gu Man. Could it be that Gu Man was also a wealthy lady like them? Hu Jiarong couldn't believe it, and couldn't accept it, because if that was the case, Gu Man would be higher than her, and she was not convinced.
"Ms. Gu is here too!" Mrs. Qu shifted her gaze to Gu Ning and greeted her politely.
"Mrs. Qu," Gu Ning stood up and responded politely. As a junior, it would be rude if she acted naturally, even though the other person's status was quite different from hers, Miss Tang. However, her status was not high, so she didn't need to care about etiquette.
"I heard that Miss Gu got a perfect score and became the top scorer in the exam. That's really cause for celebration! Miss Gu is simply the youngest and most promising person I have ever met." Mrs. Qu praised. There was no insincerity or flattery in her praise. Gu Ning was indeed the youngest and most promising person she had ever met, so she admired her from the bottom of her heart.
When Mrs. Hu Jiarong heard this, she was stunned.
What? A perfect score and the top scorer? Gu Ning was the top scorer in the college entrance examination? Didn't she just say that she was just okay? Could she get into a top university? Did she lie to herself?
However, what Gu Ning said was not wrong! Even though she was the top scorer with full marks, she was admitted to a first-class university, wasn't she?
Besides, can't people be modest? Is modesty a lie? "Yes! Gu Ning is also the youngest and most promising person I have ever seen. Now I am getting more and more annoyed with my boy. If my boy has one-third of Miss Gu's ability, I will be satisfied." Mrs. Zhuang said. Although she wanted to flatter Gu Man, she admired her from the bottom of her heart for this matter.
"Mrs. Zhuang, you are too polite." Gu Man felt a little embarrassed. Although she was very happy that her daughter was praised, she also felt a little embarrassed at the same time.
"Okay, let's not disturb Mrs. Tang. Let's get together again when she has time!" Mrs. Yu reminded them that it would be inappropriate for them to start talking to them as soon as they arrived when they were having a party with their friends.
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Qu and Mrs. Zhuang immediately realized that something was wrong.
"Yes, yes, yes. Mrs. Tang, you guys take your time chatting. We'll be leaving first. We'll get together again next time when we have time." Mrs. Qu said.
"Okay, let's get together again next time when we have time." Gu Man responded, and then Mrs. Qu and the others said goodbye and left.
Mrs. Qu and others had left, but Hu Jiarong still didn't react.
Hu Jiarong's daughter was quiet. She just stared at Gu Ning with inquiring eyes but without any hostility. Then she asked, "Are you the top scorer in the college entrance examination?"
"Yes!" Gu Ning replied. Because Hu Jiarong's daughter had never had any ill intentions from the beginning to the end, Gu Ning did not hesitate to be nice to her.
Even though Hu Jiarong had bad intentions towards Gu Man, she would not take her anger out on her daughter.
"You are amazing! Even better than my cousin, who scored over 500 points." Hu Jiarong's daughter said, then pouted angrily: "But I don't like studying."
The little girl is quite outspoken.
Gu Ning just smiled and said nothing. There are indeed many people who don't like studying. But it doesn't mean that if you study well, you will have a bright future, nor does it mean that if you don't study well, you will have no future.
Learning is indeed something that can be commanded by others, and learning is indeed the stepping stone to work.
But as long as you have outstanding abilities in one area, you can still create a good future.
At this time, Hu Jiarong reacted and asked Gu Man in a somewhat sarcastic tone: "Gu Man, you know Madam Zhuang and the others, so the one you married must be a wealthy family!"
This time, Gu Man heard it, and her heart sank.
It seems that the other party is not as kind as he imagined! However, Gu Man still remained polite and replied, "Yes"
"You're really lucky to have met a man who doesn't mind your past and the fact that he has a child." Hu Jiarong said, her envy and jealousy no longer concealed, and at the same time, she was sarcastic, mocking Gu Man's past.
Seeing Hu Jiarong's attitude, Gu Man's face also obviously turned unhappy. Although she didn't have as sharp a sense as Gu Ning, she was not a fool. She could still tell what was good and what was bad.
Hu Jiarong continued, "By the way, is your husband married for the first time or the second time? Are there other children in the family? Will your daughter get the family property in the future?"
This asked again whether it was the first marriage or the second marriage, and whether there were any children at home? In Hu Jiarong's mind, she had determined that the man Gu Man married was a second marriage, otherwise, how could a rich man want a woman with a burden? In fact, the man Hu Jiarong married was a second marriage, but because he was rich, Hu Jiarong didn't care, and he didn't have any children, so there would be no disagreement in terms of property, and all the children would be hers in the future.
But despite this, Gu Man still married better than herself with a burden, which made her feel extremely unbalanced.
