Chapter 230 Mature
Aunt Qiao was clearly trying to trick Zhao Mama into revealing information, and Zhao Mama did not disappoint her.
"The two young ladies said they were reluctant to part with their aunt, but it's just moving to the old lady's courtyard, not moving out of the mansion. The young ladies can come over in just a few steps, so it's not troublesome at all."
As Zhao's mother was about to walk into the house, Aunt Qiao quickly stepped forward to stop her.
"Mom, don't you think this is a bit too hasty? Why don't we wait until we find a date, or until the second and third young ladies come back, before we do it?"
Aunt Qiao showed little emotion on her face, but she was very anxious inside.
I don't know what those two brats said to the old lady, but the old lady not only didn't give up the idea, but was even in such a hurry to move things.
"No need for such trouble. It's all in the Marquis's mansion. It's just a change of place to sleep. Why bother with choosing a special day?"
Zhao's mother showed no respect to Aunt Qiao and ordered her people to move the things out.
“Mother Zhao, that’s true, but moving the house is no small matter. Shouldn’t the old lady make some preparations first?”
"Auntie, the old lady's affairs are none of your business. Why are you obstructing this old servant like this? Do you not want the two young ladies to move into Yunxiang Courtyard?"
Zhao's mother directly exposed Aunt Qiao's idea.
"How could that be? I'm overjoyed that the old lady has taken a liking to the two young ladies!"
Aunt Qiao naturally couldn't admit that she was unwilling. The old woman had finally stopped causing her trouble these past few days, and she didn't want to get involved with her again.
Hearing her say that, Zhao Mama glanced at her sideways and quickly left with the maids and servants who had finished tidying up.
After watching everyone leave, Aunt Qiao stood there and slapped the maid behind her across the face.
"Are they all dead? Why didn't you stop them just now?"
Unable to stop the person, Aunt Qiao vented her anger on the maid.
The thought of Gu Yuxin and Gu Yuhe ignoring her words filled her eyes with even more malice.
Back in the north courtyard, Gu Shuyan led the two sisters into the room, placed some trinkets on the table, and then dismissed the maids.
"Big sister, where did you get all these things? They look so interesting!"
Gu Yuhe picked up a seashell wind chime and shook it while giggling foolishly.
On the other hand, Gu Yuxin, even though she found these things novel, still had her brows tightly furrowed, making her look rather mature for her age.
"Third sister, you can choose for yourself. Second sister, come here, your eldest sister has something to ask you."
Hearing Gu Shuyan's words, the two nodded in unison.
"Big sister, what do you want to say?" Gu Yuxin asked curiously as she walked over to a plate.
Gu Shuyan didn't say anything, but instead grabbed her wrist.
"hiss……"
With just a little force, Gu Yuxin gasped in pain.
Seeing that her guess was correct, Gu Shuyan rolled up her sleeves, revealing half of her fair and tender arm.
"Did your aunt do all of these?" Gu Shuyan asked with certainty.
Gu Yuxin originally wanted to keep it a secret, but looking into Gu Shuyan's all-seeing eyes, she finally nodded.
"Actually, I'm fine because I rarely make her angry, and I don't hit her too hard."
As Gu Yuxin spoke, she turned her gaze to Gu Yuhe, who had a smile on her face. "Yuhe doesn't know how to read people's expressions, and she always likes to make her aunt angry, so she always gets beaten the worst."
