"You have also seen that the Marquis values the eldest girl. The eldest girl is the enemy of the Marquis. You must not be an enemy of the eldest girl in the future. From today on, you must take the initiative to make friends with the eldest girl. One more thing,
You are too anxious to eat hot tofu, so you pretend not to have any more ideas for that young master. At least you want to let the Marquis know that you have figured it out and are no longer stubborn. When you find out the young master's identity and origin in the future, if the eldest girl really follows him
That young master, my aunt will think of a way to ask the old lady to make the decision for you, so that the young master can accept you as well." He said in a low voice.
Liu Huiyan sneered and said: "That young master is extremely handsome and noble. How could he possibly like that orphaned girl in Xiyuan whose father doesn't care for his mother?"
No matter how beautiful Gu Xiyan was, there was no way that the young master would be willing to marry her.
"Fourth girl, what you said is wrong." He shook his head and sighed.
Gu Xiyan was right, she did not teach the fourth girl well, otherwise the fourth girl would not have said such a thing.
"Auntie, tell me, why am I wrong?" Liu Huiyan disagreed.
"Recently, the people I have met with the eldest daughter are all the best good men in the capital. This is an opportunity that even the third girl, the Marquis's legitimate daughter, has not had. What's more, His Majesty has personally acted as a matchmaker for the eldest daughter. This shows that the eldest daughter is in decline.
It has been reversed and should not be underestimated. Fourth girl, you must remember that you are just a concubine. The eldest girl is now the legitimate daughter of the Hou family with the support of the Marquis. In this regard, you are far inferior to the eldest girl. You must realize this.
One point." He analyzed it carefully.
Liu Huiyan wanted to refute, but found that there was nothing wrong with what Aunt He said.
"Then I will have to be shy and try to curry favor with my eldest sister?" Liu Huiyan felt unhappy.
In the past, she took pleasure in seeing that Gu Xiyan, the legitimate daughter, had a worse life than she, the concubine.
"There is no harm in flattering the eldest girl to the fourth girl, and the fourth girl can even take advantage of the eldest girl's influence in the future. A woman's weapon is not strength, but weakness can become a sharp weapon against men." He said earnestly and sincerely.
That night, the lights in Yijingyuan were extinguished until midnight.
Early the next morning, when Gu Xiyan went to Zaohui Hall to pay her respects, she met Liu Huiyan who looked haggard.
When Liu Huiyan saw her, she bowed respectfully and apologized: "Yesterday, I was unruly and bumped into my eldest sister. I would like to solemnly apologize to my eldest sister. I hope that my eldest sister will not care about her like my younger sister and forgive her this time."
"
Gu Xiyan looked Liu Huiyan up and down and found that she seemed to be a completely different person.
She heard about He's posthumous title yesterday, and later heard that Marquis Wan Qing lost his temper, and many people heard the crying of He's mother and daughter in Yijing Garden.
"You and I are not in conflict with each other. I just hope that my sister will not disturb me in the future." After that, Gu Xiyan entered the Zaohui Hall first.
Liu Huiyan looked at Gu Xiyan's back with cold eyes and told herself to bear with her anger for a while and return it to Gu Xiyan in the future.
After greeting the old lady, Gu Xiyan came out of Zaohui Hall. Liu Huiyan followed her and wanted to talk, but Gu Xiyan rejected her coldly.
After they were far away, Qiushi asked: "It's a good thing that the fourth girl is willing to get close to the girl. Why doesn't the girl pretend to be nice?"
"You usually look down on me, but you suddenly showed your kindness to me today, are you trying to use me to get close to Mr. Zhou?" Gu Xiyan's beautiful eyes half-squinted: "If there is no accident, it was Aunt He who gave the instructions to the fourth sister, then Aunt He is the concubine.
Master."
Yesterday, she threw Liu Huiyan back to Yijingyuan and asked Aunt He to teach Liu Huiyan a lesson. Then Aunt He started to posthumous titles for herself, but she just wanted to use Marquis Wan Qing to deal with her.
But the only thing He missed was that she had Zhou Mu's backing, so He's plan failed.
She had heard before that little Gu had suffered a loss at the hands of Aunt He more than once. If it hadn't been for Aunt Zhao crawling on her bed later, which caused Aunt He and Wan Qinghou to divorce, little Gu might not have been Aunt He's opponent.
"The fourth girl and Aunt He are really insidious." Qiushi finally came back to her senses.
"I don't want to cause Mr. Zhou trouble with my fourth sister. I have to stay away from my fourth sister in the future." Gu Xiyan had her own plan.
Qiushi nodded repeatedly, feeling that her own girl should stay away from the fourth girl.
On the other side, there is the official office of the Ministry of Household Affairs.
When duty time came in the afternoon, Zhou Mu left the official office and got on the carriage. Suddenly, someone opened the curtain and came in uninvited. It was Xu Yanqing.
"I'm going to take Mr. Zhou's ride. Brother Zhou won't drive me off the carriage, right?" Xu Yanqing said in a familiar manner.
Xu Yanqing was quiet for two days, so Zhou Mu lowered his guard. Unexpectedly, Xu Yanqing suddenly came to get close to him again.
"Master Xu has no contact with me normally, so what is the purpose of approaching me suddenly?" Zhou Mu asked quietly.
Xu Yanqing showed a romantic smile and leaned lazily against the car wall: "Of course it's because Zhen'er has fallen in love with Brother Zhou. If Brother Zhou is willing to give Zhen'er a chance to get close, I can be freed."
Zhou Mu's cold eyes fell on Xu Yanqing's face: "Master Xu, you think that because I live next door to the Hou Mansion, I can get close to Miss Gu?"
Although Xu Yanqing was thoughtful, he was also shocked by Zhou Mu's words.
He thought he had a good reason. How did Zhou Mu figure out what he was thinking?
Zhou Mu knew that he had guessed Xu Yanqing's thoughts, and he opened his lips calmly: "Master Xu, why do you need to work in vain? Miss Gu has already rejected Master Xu, so she knows that Master Xu is not in line with Miss Gu's wishes. A strong-willed melon is not sweet, and the capital is still
There are many ladies from famous families, why doesn’t Sir Xu just change the target?”
Xu Yanqing unknowingly sat upright and asked curiously: "How is the relationship between Brother Zhou and Miss Gu?"
Even though he is a man, he has to admit that the person in front of him is really good-looking.
Even if Gu Xiyan is not a woman who only cares about faces, she might still be attracted by Zhou Mu's stunning face, right?
If compared with Jiang Zhou, he was very confident and thought he was better than Jiang Zhou in everything. However, compared with Zhou Mu, he was not as good as Zhou Mu at all.
Even with Zhou Mu's mysterious family background, he subconsciously felt that he was better than him.
Xu Yanqing's question stumped Zhou Mu, who couldn't answer it for a while.
He only knew that he was interested in Gu Xiyan, but he found many love rivals for himself. Gu Xiyan regarded him as a friend, but did not regard him as a lover...
"Is it so difficult for Brother Zhou to answer my question?" Xu Yanqing suddenly felt bad.
Although in the government office he only dealt with Zhou Mu on official business, and now he took the initiative to approach Zhou Mu, he somewhat understood Zhou Mu's temperament.
This person has always been a person with clear clouds and clear winds, like the white snow on the mountain, like the mist between the clouds, and it is difficult to get close to him.
The day Xu Zhener met Zhou Mu, she took the initiative to show her kindness to Zhou Mu, but Zhou Mu didn't even look at Xu Zhener.
The question he just asked was difficult for Zhou Mu to answer. What does this mean?
