Sheng Mingyu did not suppress his thoughts. He held Gu Yunni in his arms and kept comforting her.
He knew that if Gu's mother could not be found, Gu Yunni would never be willing to marry him.
This is not only a thorn in Gu Yunni's heart, but also a thorn in his heart.
The other side.
"Hey, look at that carriage. Whose is it? It looks so magnificent, yet I've never seen one before."
"Has any young lady from a prominent family appeared recently? Or has a young lady or young master from a certain family returned?"
These people were talking all the time, either chatting about family matters or some recent interesting stories.
Kou Mingxue was the last one to arrive at the scene and attracted everyone's attention.
It was really because she was not low-key enough today, and the carriage she rode in had a luxurious feel.
The ladies and gentlemen present here would not dress like this even if their families were rich. It's too embarrassing!
"I don't know, but I saw the wooden sign next to it, it seems to be from the Marquis of Changping's Mansion? Is it the daughter of his family who recently returned?"
Everyone shook their heads, wondering who was sitting in the carriage.
But some people are knowledgeable. Every family will put a wooden sign next to their carriage to indicate where the carriage came from.
Kou Mingxue shouldn't have taken the wooden sign out of the house, but she was unwilling to accept it, so she brought it out with her.
"Yes, besides this young lady, who else is there in the Marquis of Changping's Mansion? It should be almost certain."
"It's just that this outfit is too tasteless."
"I heard that this young lady came back from a farmer's family, which is normal."
…
Everyone was curious at first, but after knowing who was in the carriage, they couldn't help but feel disgusted.
They were unwilling to be with Kou Mingxue in the first place because her identity was not presentable.
On the other hand, looking at Kou Mingxue's current performance, I feel speechless. Only someone who came out of the mountains would be so high-profile.
"Hurry, hurry, let's stay away from her. Don't talk to this lady. She doesn't look like a good person to me."
"Yes, my mother told me to stay away from the young lady of the Marquis of Changping Mansion, so that I wouldn't learn the airs of a petty family."
Kou Mingxue's return to the Changping Marquis Mansion caused a lot of alarm and heated discussion.
Whether it is ladies or young ladies, or masters or young masters, they will all discuss it and naturally make their own opinions.
The final conclusion is that Kou Mingxue's identity is not welcomed by anyone.
Since you grew up in the mountains, you might as well stay there for the rest of your life. Why bother coming out to attract attention?
Since she has a family behind her, she should consider the family. Her sudden appearance has brought great shame to Marquis Changping.
Kou Mingxue did not hear the discussions of these people, but walked out of the carriage with a little elegance, holding the hand of the servant next to her.
She could already imagine how stunning she would be when she came out.
She spent countless efforts to find this outfit.
"Hello, everyone!" Kou Mingxue was delicate and artificial. After getting off the carriage, she held the handkerchief in her hand and bowed to the ladies and young masters present.
Then his eyes seemed to be directed upwards, not even paying attention to the expressions of the people around him.
The ladies rolled their eyes. They'd seen this kind of behavior so many times, wouldn't there be a few every year? It never ended well anyway.
If you are not in her circle, don't force yourself to fit in.
Kou Mingxue waited for a long time for the return gift but never received it. She looked at the people around her in confusion and realized that there was something strange on their faces.
"What do you mean? Didn't you see that I was greeting you?" Kou Mingxue frowned and asked dissatisfiedly.
When the noble ladies around saw Kou Mingxue like this, they kept their distance from her and felt cheap standing next to her.
"Miss, if the Marquis heard what happened today, he would definitely be furious. Besides, Madam told you not to wear the Marquis' Mansion sign when you come out. You..."
The little maid next to her also felt embarrassed. This kind of situation had never happened before in the mansion, so she hurriedly stopped Kou Mingxue, worried that she would go crazy again.
Kou Mingxue is the daughter of the Marquis's family. If she really caused any trouble, at most she would be scolded or put in solitary confinement for a few days.
But it’s different for those servants. At the very least, they will be beaten, and at the worst, they may lose their lives. After all, a maid’s life is the least valuable.
"Get out! All of you, get out! You're just like them. You all look down on me, right? What's so good about Gu Yunni that makes you miss her so much?"
No matter how the maid tried to persuade her, Kou Mingxue couldn't suppress her anger.
Why was she always inferior to Gu Yunni in every aspect? She was obviously a hundred times better than Gu Yunni!
But she didn't dare to make too much trouble, so she had to beat and scold the maid beside her, and then walked to the lake.
Kou Mingxue also felt guilty. She originally thought that she could regain some face for the Marquis' Mansion, but who could have thought it would be so embarrassing?
"Kou Mingxue is here too. Is she a follower? She goes wherever we go." Gu Yunni was very dissatisfied.
"Yun Ni, let's go away quickly and not go back to the place we just came from. This prince will have someone drive the carriage over." Sheng Mingyu also received the news at this time and frowned fiercely.
What he hated most was Kou Mingxue following him.
Why is she right next to me? Didn't this woman like the prince before?
Gu Yunni felt helpless and shook her head with a smile. Looking at Sheng Mingyu's appearance of avoiding the plague god, she felt a little sad for Kou Mingxue.
However, she was very happy with Sheng Mingyu's behavior, at least it showed that Sheng Mingyu didn't have that person in his heart.
"Okay, then I'll listen to you. If you can avoid it, that would be great. If not, I'll probably still be bothered."
"Don't worry, no one usually comes here." Sheng Mingyu has always been cautious in doing things.
On the other side, Du Changming's men reported the news about Gu Yunni.
"Outing? Is it that interesting? This year's outing is different from previous years. Prepare the carriage, I want to go and take a look too."
"yes."
He had always sent people to keep an eye on Sheng Mingyu and Gu Yunni, so he naturally knew that the two were out for an outing.
Du Changming also got news about Kou Mingxue, and suddenly became interested.
As long as he could cause trouble for Sheng Mingyu, he would never get tired of it.
Moreover, he refused to respond even when summoned. I'm afraid Sheng Mingyu really has rebellious intentions, so I have to keep an eye on him all the time.
Not long.
"Look, His Royal Highness's carriage has arrived. Doesn't His Royal Highness always dislike such lively occasions? Why is he here to play with us today?"
Du Changming usually doesn't hang out with these noble ladies from aristocratic families, as he's worried about gossip spreading.
Today, it was because of Sheng Mingyu and Gu Yunni that he couldn't wait to rush here and gave these people a surprise.
Who wouldn't want to be closer to the Crown Prince? Whether it was for the sake of their family or the position of Crown Princess, they all wanted to compete for it.
