“That Third Lady was behaving way too over the top. You are the lineal daughter, but you have to watch out for the concubine’s children. They are always out there to get you.”
“…”
“Lord Huai is going to be a great family for you. You have to watch out!” Mada Deng said. She had once been tricked before as a beginner.
Gu Chaoyan realized what Mada Deng ant.
She did not worry about Zhou Huaijin who was already cautious enough, but she still needed to thank Mada Deng for reminding her.
She was indeed a very sensible person. She had known so much conspiracy, and she herself seed to have experienced so losses before.
Gu Chaoyan nodded. “Thank you, Mada Deng!”
She had so more chitchats with Mada Deng.
When Mrs. Gu and Gu Xiuying returned and saw Gu Chaoyan in the middle of a conversation with Mada Deng, she looked rather unhappy. She took Gu Chaoyan here because she did not want her to socialize with other ladies, but this bitch was doing the opposite.
Mada Deng realized that Mrs. Gu must be very displeased after seeing Mrs. Gu’s expression. So she got up and returned to her own seat.
Mrs. Gu, who had intended to speak with Mada Deng, had to give up. She said to Gu Chaoyan. “It is getting late, we need to go ho.”
Mada Deng could not stand that any more.
The Gu Family must be the only one who was leaving for ho at this point.
When Mrs. Gu’s daughter was not around, she did not expect anyone else to be noticed by anyone at the Min Mansion, did she?
Mada Deng was about to say sothing, when Gu Chaoyan shook her head at her.
It was alright to leave now. She ca to the Min Mansion for a purpose, which was already realized. It was fine to go ho early. She felt uncomfortable sitting here.
She got up and greeted Mada Deng. “Thank you Mada Deng for today, I am going ho now.”
“Don’t ntion it.” Mada Deng said straightforwardly.
“When you see Mada Min, please tell her about leaving.” Gu Chaoyan said as she thought for a second.
“Okay.” Mada Deng agreed – she and Mada Min did hang out every now and then.
Mrs. Gu saw the scene, and thought that Mada Deng was an easygoing person.
Mada Deng was the wife of the Office of Board of Rites and Ceremonies, and she had intended to exchange a few words with her but failed. Now was a good chance. Mrs. Gu was about to say sothing to Mada Deng… when Mada Deng turned around and started to speak with other ladies instead.
Mrs. Gu looked embarrassed, gave out a dry laugh and tried to cover what she had done as if nothing happened. She said to Gu Chaoyan and Gu Xiuying with a cold look on her face. “Let’s leave.”
Gu Xiuying was displeased, but Gu Chaoyan showed no expression.
They got into the wagon.
Inside the wagon, Gu Xiuying had to stop thinking about the Min Mansion since they were already on the way ho. She realized that what needed to happen right now was to get the biggest interest for herself.
Gu Xiuying looked at Gu Chaoyan and felt excitent rolling inside her stomach.
Well, who else could get Mada Min and Princess Yunxi for the Adulthood Ceremony! Even the lady from the Pri Minister’s Mansion might not have such a qualification. So she had to take the assistant position!
“Gu Chaoyan, I have got sothing to talk with you about.” Gu Xiuying said confidently. She believed that Gu Chaoyan was definitely going to say yes, or she could just ask her father to make the proposal for her!
