Chapter 238 Argument
Gu Shuyan had a plan in mind, but pretended not to know it.
"Miss Yan also knows that I haven't been back to the Gu family for very long, so I really don't know much about my eldest brother's preferences."
After Gu Shuyan finished speaking, Yan Meier couldn't help but let out a disappointed "oh".
Before he could say anything more, Gu Shuyan said, "It looks like Madam Yan over there!"
Following the gaze, they indeed saw Madam Yan talking with several other ladies.
"Now that Miss Yan has met Madam, I shall take my leave."
Gu Shuyan didn't want to stay with Yan Meier any longer. After saying this, she didn't even get a reply or a thank you from Yan Meier before turning the corner.
Watching Gu Shuyan's departing figure, Yan Meier was unwilling, but in the end she could only turn back to look for Madam Yan.
"Young Miss, I'm afraid Miss Yan won't let this go so easily."
Mingyu whispered a reminder from the side, and Gu Shuyan nodded in response, "The Yan family's character is not worthy of entering my Gu family. Father and Mother will not agree."
"The Marquis's wife will not agree, but what if the eldest son insists on doing so?"
Pearl grew up by Ji's side and understands Ji's personality quite well. If the eldest son speaks up about this matter, I'm afraid the Marquis's wife won't object too much in the end.
"Big brother wouldn't have such poor judgment."
Gu Shuyan didn't think her older brother would be interested in Yan Meier, but Pearl was worried! Yan Meier was so charming; didn't you see how many people were staring at her just now? Weren't they attracted by her face?
The three of them quickly arrived at the hall and heard a commotion from afar.
Gu Shuyan approached and saw that Princess Ruyue and Xu Shan'er were arguing again. Thinking of how Xu Shan'er had beaten Princess Ruyue last time and made her serve them tea and water for a long time, Gu Shuyan felt a headache coming on.
I wonder what these two ancestors did this time.
"Yuxin, Yuhe, what happened?"
Gu Shuyan stepped forward and faced the two people who were standing to the side, at a loss.
"Big sister." The two women felt like they had grasped a lifeline as soon as they saw Gu Shuyan, and quickly came over.
“We don’t know why, Princess Ruyue was fine just now, but as soon as she saw Miss Xu come in, she stopped Miss Xu and asked her to bow. Miss Xu refused and the two of them started arguing. We couldn’t understand what they were saying, so we don’t know how to persuade them.”
Looking at Gu Yuxin's furrowed brows, she must be in a very difficult situation.
"Alright, leave this to my older sister!"
After Gu Shuyan finished speaking, she patted the two of them on the shoulder and took a few steps forward.
"This humble woman greets the Princess."
Gu Shuyan first bowed to Princess Ruyue before asking, "May I ask what caused the conflict between the two of you?"
Princess Ruyue didn't like Gu Shuyan either, but Gu Shuyan was the mistress of the house after all, and most importantly, her family had specifically instructed her not to offend Gu Shuyan today.
So after thinking for a moment, Princess Ruyue still gave her the face.
"Miss Xu doesn't take me seriously, so I'm just teaching her some manners."
"Who needs you to teach me manners? With your half-baked manners from the Ministry of Rites, you're not even worthy to carry the shoes of the Marquis of Jinning."
What annoyed Xu Shan'er the most was that Princess Ruyue, despite her low status and weak family, acted arrogantly and domineeringly in front of her, constantly using her status to suppress her.
"Sister Shuyan, this is between the two of us, you don't need to worry about it."
Xu Shan'er knew that Gu Shuyan was the hostess today, so in order not to make things difficult for her, she quickly distanced herself from her.
