Chapter 58 Concubine of the Marquis's Mansion
He said she was ill-mannered, and she made him regret saying that.
Sure enough, upon hearing Gu Shuyan's words, Uncle Gu's face turned pale with anger.
"You, you..."
Uncle Gu, you've been talking for ages and still haven't come up with a conclusion.
After all, what Gu Shuyan said was true. He did not greet his mother when he entered the room. Not only that, he also angered his mother to the point of fainting.
"What do you mean, 'what do you mean, 'what do you mean, 'what do you mean'? Did I say something wrong? This mistress keeps calling me Yingxue without even asking what happened. My grandmother just told her to stop calling me Yingxue all the time, and she started wailing and crying. She's only just entered the house and she's already bringing bad luck to my grandmother. If word gets out, people will think that my second uncle is cursing my grandmother!"
Gu Shuyan subtly recounted what had happened, while also giving her second uncle a sharp slap in the face.
Upon hearing this, Uncle Gu looked at his wife with suspicion.
Aunt Gu, not understanding what had happened, pointed at Gu Shuyan and said, "How dare you say that? I greeted you as soon as you came in, but what was your attitude?"
"Greet me? Are we very familiar, Madam? Also, I haven't had a chance to tell you, Madam, that my name is not Gu Yingxue, but Gu Shuyan, and I am the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Yi'an's family."
After Gu Shuyan finished speaking, her sharp gaze swept over everyone in front of her. Seeing Gu Shuyan's icy expression, everyone felt a chill run down their spines and couldn't help but feel a little scared.
In everyone's impression, the young lady had always been gentle and easy to talk to, but today she suddenly seemed like a different person, especially her cold gaze, which was truly terrifying.
The servants of the Marquis's mansion were startled, not to mention the second branch of the Gu family, who had never experienced such a scene before.
The youngest, Gu Jiezong, was so frightened that he wet his pants but dared not cry out loud, which looked both pitiful and funny.
“Father, now that Second Uncle’s family has returned, let them stay! As for this mistress, now that she’s in the manor, she can no longer be called ‘Madam.’ From now on, she’ll be called Aunt Qiao. As for her food, clothing, and daily necessities, they should be provided according to the standards for a concubine. We must not break the rules of our Marquis’s manor.”
Gu Shuyan gave the order in an unquestionable tone, but no one present noticed anything amiss. Gu Jin even nodded and replied, "Okay, I'll go talk to your mother."
After saying this, Gu Jin realized that he, a dignified marquis, was actually overshadowed by his daughter.
Looking at her strong-willed daughter, Gu Jin felt a pang of heartache. What had she gone through to make her personality so unpredictable?
Under Gu Shuyan's forceful pressure, the matter was settled.
On the bed in Yunxiang Courtyard, the old lady drank the medicine fed to her by Zhao Mama and asked, "Did Shuyan really say that?"
"That's right, when the young lady stood there, everyone present was stunned. The second wife was still in a daze even after she was dragged away, and I heard she went back and threw a huge tantrum!"
Zhao's mother spoke with great emotion, as if she had been there at the time.
Hearing this, the old lady nodded with relief, "At least this child isn't easy to handle."
"Of course, with our young lady's aura, I would say she's no less impressive than any of the noble ladies in the palace."
In her excitement, Zhao's mother spoke without restraint.
Upon hearing this, the old lady quickly stopped her, saying, "You can't talk nonsense. What do you mean by 'noble person'? Our daughter won't be sent into that kind of fire pit."
Everyone thinks the palace is good, but what's so good about the palace? If you accidentally offend someone, you might be lucky enough to be sent to the cold palace, or unlucky enough to lose your life.
