"..." Nanny Xu waved her sleeves fiercely, she really couldn't stay in this ghost place for a moment.

She just turned around when she heard Gu Yanfei say slowly behind her: "By the way, grandma, remember to leave the monthly payment before leaving."

Nanny Xu's body paused, turned back, looked into Gu Yanfei's eyes, and said angrily: "Isn't the second lady unwilling to return to the Hou Mansion? I thought you wanted to sever ties with the Hou Mansion!"

A country girl is a country girl, she is obsessed with money, and she is not only thinking about the money of the Hou Mansion!

Gu Yanfei took off a gold and jade bracelet with a carved swallow pattern from his wrist, gave it to Juan Bi, and said, "Take it and pawn it."

Of course Nanny Xu knows this bracelet. All the jewelry of the second girl was prepared by the Madam, and each piece is engraved with the mark of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion.

The pair of pawned earrings have not been redeemed yet. If this bracelet is pawned again, wouldn't it confirm the rumors of the decline of the Hou Mansion?!

Aunt Xu gritted her molar teeth unwillingly: "I'll ask someone to get the monthly payment right now."

"Juan Bi, please go with Nanny Xu and get all my monthly payment for the past three months." Gu Yanfei warned Juan Bi with a smile.

Nanny Xu's face was ashen, and veins appeared on her neck.

She thought that one month's monthly payment would be enough, but she didn't expect that this country girl was so greedy that she asked for three months as soon as she asked.

All this money should have been hers!

Nanny Xu's heart was bleeding, she felt as if a piece of her heart had been cut out, and she walked away upset.

She must return to Beijing as soon as possible to report to Madam Tai, otherwise, if something goes wrong with the Gu and Fang family's marriage, she will be doomed!!

Half an hour later, Nanny Xu's carriage left Danyang City, riding fast all the way, day and night.

As soon as she returned to the Dingyuan Hou Mansion in the capital, she didn't bother to wash up. The first thing she did was rush to Cihe Hall and cried aggrievedly:

"Madam, although I dare not say that I have been working hard during this period, I have tried my best to teach the second girl. However, the second girl misunderstood me and thought that I was deliberately making things difficult for her!"

"..."

"The second girl grew up outside. She is used to the old life. She always likes to run away from home. That day, the carriage had an accident. The servant only tried to persuade her a few words, and the second girl took action on the slave..."

"This is how my slave's front tooth was knocked out."

Aunt Xu vividly described Gu Yanfei as a vulgar, ignorant and uneducated wild girl.

There is a cloisonné enamel incense burner placed in the corner of the east room, quietly blowing out curls of cigarette smoke.

A graceful old woman in her fifties was sitting on a red sandalwood Arhat bed with ten thousand characters pattern. She was wearing a purple trousers with ten kinds of brocade makeup. She was twirling a string of Buddhist beads in her hand. Her eyes swept over the bed of Madam Xu.

There are black holes on his front teeth, and his expression shows no emotion or anger.

An old lady with silver hair next to her gently advised her: "Madam, please calm down, the second girl is still young."

"You're still young? You're almost old enough." Mrs. Gu sighed softly, "What a sin."

"..." The old grandma was speechless for a moment.

This incident is a scandal in the Hou family.

The Marquis of Dingyuan has been a martial artist for generations, and the late Marquis Gu Ce is the eldest son of Mrs. Gu.

In the tenth year of Xuanren's reign, Gu Ce and his wife Xie were guarding Sishui County in Yangzhou. They did not want South Vietnam to raid, so Xie, who was eight months pregnant, was arranged by Gu Ce to leave Sishui County.

Nanyue got the news from nowhere and sent people to hunt down the Xie family, trying to use Xie family to blackmail Gu Ce into surrendering.

Xie was frightened on the road and gave birth to a premature baby. She died after giving birth to a baby girl. Su Niang, the wet nurse, fled with the baby girl in her arms. It took several months to escape back to the capital.

No one expected that Su Niang would secretly pass her biological daughter off as the legitimate daughter of the Gu family, exchanging the fake for the real. She kept this secret for fourteen years.

It wasn't until Su Niang's husband, a gambler, came to her door half a year ago and secretly blackmailed Su Niang, but was discovered by Mrs. Gu, and the truth about the real and fake daughter was revealed.

"Madam," Nanny Xu pretended to wipe the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, while glancing at Mrs. Gu above her with the corner of her eye, and murmured uneasily, "there is one more thing about Prince Fang.

…”

"Mingfeng?" Mrs. Gu stopped twirling the beads and frowned slightly.

"It is the British Crown Prince." Nanny Xu swallowed her saliva, and then released the heavy hammer at the right time, "The second girl met Prince Fang by chance in Danyang City, and she...she actually ran to Prince Fang privately to tell him that the two of them

Forget the family marriage!"

"The second girl also said that she will not return to Beijing unless...unless you go to Danyang City to pick her up in person."

Nanny Xu evaded all the faults and put all the faults on Gu Yanfei. She lowered her head and clutched the handkerchief tightly.

"Snapped!"

Mrs. Gu slapped her palm heavily on the coffee table, pursed her lips tightly, and her whole body was shrouded in a thick cloud.

Mrs. Gu couldn't say she liked or disliked this second granddaughter she had never met.

To her, Gu Yunkuang was the granddaughter she had raised by herself, a granddaughter she was proud of.

Gu Yunkuang was good in everything, from appearance, temperament to talent and learning, he was top-notch in everything. He was praised by everyone in the capital and even got the favor of King Kang.

Prince Kang is the biological son of the current Queen Mother. After he ascends the throne, he will be granted the title of prince. If Gu Yunchun can become Princess Kang, it will naturally be the icing on the cake for their Dingyuan Marquis Mansion.

However, the Gu family and the Fang family had a marriage contract for a long time. When the old Marquis was still alive, he betrothed his eldest daughter to the British prince Fang Mingfeng.

Once they break up, the Gu family will inevitably be accused of being treacherous and clinging to the powerful.

Mrs. Gu thought about it a lot before she decided to find the "real" eldest daughter.

In this way, not only can the marriage between the Gu and Fang families be fulfilled, but the reputations of the Gu family and Gu Yunchun will not be damaged.

Mrs. Gu had already considered the pros and cons over and over again and was mentally prepared. This second granddaughter had grown up in the countryside and had not been carefully trained for half a year. She was afraid that she would not be able to see anyone, but she did not expect that she would be so vulgar!

It's okay to be vulgar and stupid, but the problem is that this girl doesn't know herself yet, and she dares to go to Fang Mingfeng and make nonsense, which has completely embarrassed the Gu family!

Mrs. Gu raised her eyelids and said slowly: "I asked you to take good care of the second girl, and this is how you do it?!"

Her voice was as cold as ice shards falling out of her.

Aunt Xu cursed Gu Yanfei a thousand times in her heart, and quickly knelt down, admitting her mistake and saying, "I am so ashamed, I really can't do anything to the second girl."

After the words fell, there was an oppressive silence in Dongji's room, and the air was stagnant.

The maids serving beside him all lowered their heads in silence.

At this moment, the clear voice of the little maid came from outside the door curtain, breaking the silence: "Two...three girls!"

The air in the room suddenly relaxed.

The next moment, the door curtain was opened from the outside, and a beautiful, slender girl walked in from the main room outside with a cup of tea.

The soft lines outline a sharp oval face, with a complexion as fair as jade, willow eyebrows and pink lips, and eyes like stars. When she smiles, a pair of cute dimples are exposed on both sides of her cheeks. She has a smart and amiable temperament that makes people fall in love with her at first sight.

Have a good impression.

The girl wears a flat bun, a pair of ruby ​​gold silk butterfly beads on her head, and a bright red skirt embroidered with begonia flowers. When walking, her figure is slim and graceful, and her steps are light and elegant.
