Gu Changyuan recovered quickly, and Yutan could see him in the school two days later.
Out of politeness, Yutan would greet him sweetly when they met, and when facing Yutan, Gu Changyuan's eyes would unknowingly soften a little.
After Mr. Gu Wu fell down with a fever, Duke Jingguo's mansion had been quiet for a few days, but then became lively again. Mrs. Qian wanted to hold a flower-viewing banquet in the mansion to entertain the noble ladies of Xiangcheng City.
It's called the Flower Appreciation Banquet, but it's actually the Qian family choosing the girl they like for Mr. Gu. Although Mr. Gu is not yet old, wealthy families like to make arrangements several years in advance. After they fall in love with a girl, they have to secretly observe her.
Character, make sure you are suitable before getting engaged.
Although the Yu family is not an aristocratic family, it is a well-off family and one of the richest in Xiangcheng. Naturally, the Guo family also received the post.
Mrs. Guo received the post in the morning, and the old lady sent someone to invite her over in the afternoon. It happened that Yutan was also in Meixiangyuan at that time, so she went to Yixintang with Mrs. Guo.
Yutan knew her grandmother very well. She would never take the initiative to call her grandma when something good happened. If she did, she must be asking for something from her.
Moreover, Yu Tan also guessed what the old lady was asking for when she invited Guo over.
Sure enough, not only the old lady was present in Yixintang, but also the second wife, Mrs. Xu, and Mrs. Xu's daughter, Yuying.
"My dear daughter-in-law, I heard that Mrs. Jingguo Gong sent you an invitation?" The old lady got straight to the point.
"Yes." Guo took a sip of tea and said nothing further.
The main reason is that Mrs. Guo herself is not sure whether she should go or not. She knows what the Duke's wife's flower viewing party is about. Seeing her daughter becoming more and more prosperous, she is unwilling to let her daughter fall into the eyes of other ladies so early.
Seeing that Mrs. Guo didn't speak, Mrs. Xu deliberately lowered her posture and said humbly, "Sister-in-law, Sister Ying is almost at the age of proposing marriage. During this flower viewing party, Mrs. Jing Guogong left a message for my sister-in-law and asked her not to dislike Ying.
Sister, take her to see the world."
"Yuying has caused trouble for Auntie Auntie and Sister Yutan..."
Yuying couldn't be affectionate towards this sister. She was polite on the surface, but she looked down on her in her heart. But because she had more money, if she were her uncle's daughter, she would definitely be much more outstanding than Yutan.
After hearing what Xu's mother and daughter said, Guo just smiled and did not answer.
When the old lady saw that Mr. Guo ignored the second bedroom, she was unhappy, "The second bedroom is not as powerful as your first bedroom, and his face is not as good as yours. All the decent posts in Xiangcheng are sent to the first bedroom, but never to the second bedroom. As the eldest sister-in-law, you
, shouldn’t we take more care of them? Now you are asked to take Sister Ying to a flower viewing party, but you are not willing?”
"I'm not dead yet, and you just don't take me seriously. If I'm no longer here, I'm afraid there won't be room for a second wife in this Jade Mansion!"
When Mrs. Guo heard what the old lady said, she felt angry, but she couldn't help it.
But Yutan couldn't bear to let Guo family suffer.
"Second aunt and elder sister really don't have to be so humble. In the past, when did my mother-in-law not bring her eldest sister to a banquet? When you say this, it sounds like my mother-in-law has never brought her eldest sister."
"Grandma, you are old and see things clearly. Can you tell me, have you ever treated my aunt and the others poorly?"
As she said that, Yutan made a naughty look, "Grandma, second aunt, eldest sister, Yutan takes advantage of her young age and speaks freely. If she says something wrong, you won't take it seriously, right?"
