Looking at the gleaming dagger, Old Li Tou was so frightened that he took several steps back. His feet gave way and he fell to the ground.

Gu Yanfei put the dagger back into the scabbard without changing her expression, her movements were crisp and neat, and she thought to herself: It is indeed a good sword!

Juan Bi stood there, dumbfounded.

"Juan Bi, let's go." Gu Yanfei smiled faintly, a charming smile.

She carried her skirt and crossed the high threshold, her posture always elegant and upright.

Juan Bi was slow for a moment before catching up.

As soon as the master and servant entered the door, they heard a stiff and stern female voice in front of them yell aggressively:

"Second young lady, look at you like this, you don't look like a noble lady from the Marquis Mansion!"

Not far away, a nanny wearing a rust-colored dark-striped gown and three or four women walked toward this side menacingly.

The leader was a nanny in her early fifties, with droopy eyes, a few deep grooves at the corners of her eyes, and a hint of arrogance between her eyebrows.

Juan Bi said softly: "Mother Xu."

Three months ago, it was this Nanny Xu who went to Huaibei on the orders of Mrs. Hou Fu and brought Gu Yanfei here.

Aunt Xu walked straight up to Gu Yanfei without any intention of saluting. She scanned her from head to toe with her critical eyes. When she glanced at her slightly messy hair and the mud on her skirt, she frowned and felt like this.

The second girl is really indecent, not even as good as the first and second class maids in their prince's mansion.

If it weren't for the marriage between the Hou Mansion and the Fang family...

Aunt Xu calmed down and said sternly: "Second Miss, the Madam asked you to stay here temporarily so that you can learn the rules. Is this how you learn the rules?!"

"You are about to get hairpins. A girl in a boudoir should read more "Nv's Ring" and "Nv's Training" at home and become a female celebrity. Look at how you look now. You are disheveled and you are out of bed early.

I came home late, and I just returned...hey!"

"If this spreads out, it will only make people laugh at the Gu family's goddaughter."

"You have really let down Mrs. Tai's hard work. Fortunately, Mrs. Tai sent a letter to ask you how you learned the rules. She wanted to take you back to Beijing as soon as possible."

Nanny Xu shook her head with disdain. Her condescending attitude and tone made it seem as if she was the master and Gu Yanfei was the servant.

"Mother Xu, you misunderstood." Juan Bi hurriedly told the story about the carriage accidentally falling off the cliff. When he talked about the dead coachman and the caretaker's mother-in-law, her eyes turned red.

Nanny Xu's brows furrowed more and more tightly, her expression became colder and harder, and she scolded Gu Yanfei again: "Second Miss, if you didn't insist on going out, why would you do this!"

This sentence is equivalent to blaming Gu Yanfei for the death of the coachman and the rough lady.

Gu Yanfei raised her eyebrows and her eyes stayed on Nanny Xu's face.

In her previous life, she woke up from a coma the next morning. She had a high fever and was weak. She had no luck in surviving the disaster, only deep fear.

At that time, Aunt Xu also reprimanded her in the same way, saying that she had killed Juan Bi, the coachman and others.

She believed it, and just as Grandma Xu wished, she put all the blame on herself... For many years after that, she spent the next many years feeling guilty and self-blame, becoming increasingly inferior and always looking forward and backward.

But now she won't be so stupid anymore.

She knows who is really wrong and who should pay the price, and she will not condemn herself because of other people's mistakes.

"Nanny Xu, how could you..."

Juan Bi anxiously wanted to help Gu Yanfei argue, but Gu Yanfei stopped her: "Juan Bi, that's enough."

Gu Yanfei and Nanny Xu looked at each other with eyes as deep as abyss.

Aunt Xu thought she had the upper hand, and raised her lower lip proudly, with a bit of ridicule on her brows.

Couldn't she still make a movie about a girl from the countryside?!

Nanny Xu dusted off her sleeves casually, then turned to Juan Bi and said, "Juan Bi, the Madam asked you to wait by the girl's side to persuade her. It would be better for you to encourage the girl to stay away from home!"

"I'll slap you thirty times."

Aunt Xu slowly sneered, intending to scare the monkeys.

"Juan Bi, let's go." Gu Yanfei said calmly, not wanting to talk nonsense with Nanny Xu at all, so she walked away.

It’s really outrageous!! Aunt Xu’s face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot and shouted: “Don’t leave!”

"I wonder what grandma thinks of your body compared to the door?" Gu Yanfei walked forward, glanced at half of the door on the ground, and smiled brightly, with a demonstration that was clear to his face.

There was silence all around, and Old Li Tou and the ladies were stunned.

"..." Nanny Xu felt as if she had been slapped in the face by someone in public, and the anger in her heart slowly rose.

She had been in the Hou Mansion for decades, and even the young men and girls in the manor would give her some respect, but she was so humiliated by such a country girl who couldn't stand up to the public.

"Second Miss!" Nanny Xu's voice was cold, her eyes were like knives piercing her, "If you keep messing around, don't even think about returning to the Marquis Mansion!"

Aunt Xu did not hide the threat in her words, and was sure that the other party would give in.

In no mood--

Gu Yanfei didn't show any emotion at all, and shrugged nonchalantly: "Then I won't go back."

The evening breeze blew up a few strands of black hair on her cheeks, and the tail of her hair caressed the girl's beautiful face, giving people a feeling of alienation and indifference.

Juan Bi obeyed his orders and followed immediately.

Nanny Xu's Sanbai eyes were full of surprise and uncertainty.

In the past three months, she has guided step by step, suppressed step by step, step by step, and has obviously completely grasped this dull and cowardly country girl. How come this girl has just stepped out of the house, and she has become a completely different person in just one day?

Similar!

When passing by Nanny Xu, Gu Yanfei said lightly:

"You're so bad with bad luck, you're going to suffer a bloody disaster."

"How dare you curse me?!" Nanny Xu subconsciously raised her voice and raised her eyebrows.

Gu Yanfei had nothing more to say, tossed his sleeves and left.

"Stop!" Nanny Xu's face was stern, her chest was heaving violently, and she was about to chase him.

However, she forgot about the broken door leaf lying beside her feet, tripped on her right foot, and her bloated body suddenly lost its balance and fell forward screaming.

All this happened so fast that other people around her didn't even have time to help her, and just watched helplessly as Nanny Xu fell to the ground.

Her chin hit the door panel so hard that her mouth was full of blood, and she screamed and spit out one of her front teeth. The hairpin on her head was crooked, and her gray and sparse hair was half scattered. She looked like a mad woman and was in a miserable state.

One woman was stunned and pulled the other woman next to her, almost to the point of kneeling.

Just now, the second girl said that Nanny Xu was in danger of a bloody disaster, but it came true so quickly!

This, this, this... is so amazing!

"Nanny Xu, are you okay?"

After a moment of silence, there was a commotion.

Some people hurried to help Nanny Xu who fell to the ground, some hurried to call the doctor, and some shouted to the concierge to fix the door...

Gu Yanfei didn't care about this.

After returning home, she stayed alone in the room.

This boudoir is simple and elegant. Against the wall is a medium-sized lacquered bed with a sky-blue curtain hanging above it.

Against the wall on the east side is a dressing table and a black lacquered gold doubao grid. Next to the east window is a large dark red bookcase, facing the small pond outside the window.
