Chapter 248: I feel more comfortable when I go crazy
Chen Shaozheng left angrily, and Gu Changqing in the room still felt that Chen Shaozheng was being pretentious.
He is just a third-rank Dali Temple Minister, yet he dares to act so presumptuously in the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion. Besides, his brother Lu has won the top three places in the imperial examinations. If he wins the top three places in the imperial examinations and achieves the top six places in the future, you people can forget about being arrogant anymore. Just cry, and you will cry without making a sound!
Gu Changqing rolled his eyes lazily.
Outsiders all thought that once the gate of Yong'an Marquis Mansion was closed, the years would be peaceful. In fact, after Su Jin left, Yong'an Marquis Mansion had been declining at an accelerated pace.
Things in the backyard were a mess. After Gu Suiyu quit, he handed all the affairs in the mansion over to Lin Wanhui. Lin Wanhui, relying on her power, started to show off again.
In addition, the old lady was ill, so Lin Wanhui took the opportunity to replace everyone in the courtyard, and even handed over the management of procurement directly to her younger brother and sister-in-law.
Yes, you heard it right. Lin Wanhui’s sister-in-law was not a slave, but she forced her sister-in-law Qiu to come in to manage purchasing. This was definitely a lucrative job. Qiu was very happy every day. Not only could she make money, but she could also take some of the things purchased by the Marquis’ Mansion home. As a result, the Lin family ate better than the Marquis’ Mansion. It was really great.
The Lin family became wealthy, but Lin Wanhui's life was not very good.
Especially the matter of Gu Ruyu. It was bad enough that her marriage with the Duke's Mansion was unhappy, but the Duke's Mansion's eldest lady, Liu, also spread rumors about Gu Ruyu. Now, all the famous families in the capital knew that Gu Ruyu, the third lady of the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion, seduced the young master of the Duke's Mansion, and even spread rumors that she had written a lot of love letters. Liu was indignant and furious about this.
All the young ladies wanted to verify it after hearing the excitement, but they couldn't. Firstly, Zou was bedridden and could not be seen at all. Secondly, Su Jin left the Yong'an Marquis Mansion. This huge Yong'an Marquis Mansion now didn't even have a mistress in charge. Who could they ask?
So, the result that no one had to ask was that the matter became a hot topic, and everyone gradually felt that it must be true.
Gu Ruyu also tried every possible way to find Xu Shaozhen later, but if someone deliberately refused to see you, you couldn't see him, especially since Liu had specifically instructed the servants not to let the two meet.
Gu Ruyu was on the verge of collapse.
She finally found a good husband, the heir of the Duke's Mansion, whose status and position were much higher than Gu Suiyu's Yin Zhengnan, and he would be able to inherit the title in the future. Then she would be the Duke's wife in the future, so what would Gu Suiyu mean by marrying him? Without the eldest princess, Yin Zhengnan could only be an official of a certain rank, and she would be the wife of an official of a certain rank, which was far inferior to her.
However, just as the dream was about to come true, everything was ruined by Lin Wanhui.
Now, as soon as Gu Ruyu saw Lin Wanhui, he would definitely go crazy, make a lot of noise, and even curse loudly.
"Get lost! Don't let me see you! It's all because of you! You've ruined everything for me! I could have married into a wealthy family and become the wife of a duke, but you ruined everything for me!"
Lin Wanhui was also angry. She was already in her thirties, yet she was still being cursed and criticized by her daughter. However, she couldn't say a word. She went to the Duke's Mansion and argued for her daughter, but it was useless.
Didn’t Gu Ruyu envy Su Jin for going to the Grand Princess for Gu Sui Yu? She also went to the Duke’s Mansion, but what was the result?
The result was Gu Ruyu's cursing and crying, which made me angry when I thought about it.
"This, this can't be blamed on me!"
Lin Wanhui was also unhappy: "The eldest lady of the Duke's Mansion, Liu, is a shrew. She tore up all the letters..."
"Do you have any brains at all? Why did you give her all the letters? Wouldn't that just be giving them to someone to tear up?"
Lin Wanhui hurriedly explained: "I just wanted to show her the evidence..."
"In the end, they tore it up without even looking at it. Why is it you who is my biological mother? If I could help it, I really don't want to be your daughter! I was born to be a concubine, and I am naturally inferior to Gu Suiyu. Now I have finally got the chance to marry into a wealthy family, but it's all ruined by you. Why is it you who is my biological mother, not Su Jin?"
Gu Ruyu continued to go crazy. She broke down and cried out of anger. She couldn't contact Xu Shaozhen for such a long time. She vented all her grievances and anger on Lin Wanhui. After smashing all the porcelain in the room again, Gu Ruyu covered her face and ran out crying, still saying, "Why is Su Jin not my mother? Why, wuwuwu..."
Lin Wanhui was devastated.
She covered her chest in pain, and she was about to collapse.
She hated being compared to Su Jin the most, but in the end, it was her daughter who hurt her the most!
Why isn’t Su Jin your mother?
Oh, she wanted to ask too!
Why wasn’t she, Lin Wanhui, born in the Hexi Su family?
Why was she born in the Lin family? Why was the Lin family a small family? Why couldn't she compare to Su Jin no matter how hard she tried? And now she was even despised by her daughter!
Su Jin went to find the Grand Princess, but didn't she go to find the Duke's Mansion? Why, her efforts were not considered efforts?
The eldest princess must be easy to talk to. What is Liu from the Duke's Mansion? She is just a shrew!
Lin Wanhui was extremely devastated, and the more devastated she was, the more she hated Su Jin.
However, things are different now. Su Jin has left Yong'an Marquis Mansion, and now, the person who manages the entire mansion is her, Lin Wanhui!
Who said that he is not as good as Su Jin? Who said that he can't compare to Su Jin?
It’s fake, all fake!
Su Jin had fought for the housekeeper's rights all her life but failed to get them. Now she had them. She was not only in charge of Gu Changqing's courtyard, but the entire mansion! !
Lin Wanhui took a deep breath and tried hard to suppress the tightness and depression in her chest. She kept telling herself, yes, she was better than Su Jin. At least she got something that Su Jin couldn't get.
"My dear..."
Mother Chen called out worriedly, and Lin Wanhui finally managed a smile: "I'm fine."
"Third Miss..."
"Don't worry about her..."
Lin Wanhui took a deep breath and said, "Without the Duke's Mansion, there will be no more men in the world?"
"But, it's really hard to find a mistress of such a distinguished family."
Mother Chen looked worried, but Lin Wanhui suddenly thought of someone.
"Isn't Prince Rui still married? Moreover, he is much more noble than the Duke's Mansion. Besides, he is already an old man at such an old age. I believe the Emperor is more anxious. As long as we think of a way, we can make it a done deal..."
Lin Wanhui felt relieved instantly. Even if she couldn't become a princess, she could be a concubine. The status of a concubine is definitely higher than that of a duke's wife, right?
ha!
Lin Wanhui felt much more comfortable.
