Rebirth of the Prime Minister's Wife

Chapter 21 Missing the official position

In the exquisite side room, a beautiful woman in a brocade skirt was holding an eyebrow pencil and tracing her eyebrows in the mirror.

The eyes reflected in the mirror were covered with mist, but Yingying felt smart and affectionate just at a glance.

The figure is slim and slim, and the thin belt around the waist outlines the slender waist. Just a glance at the back can make people daydream, as if they are catching a glimpse of the beauty of the flying flowers at midnight, which makes people fascinated.

The woman had picked out her makeup and was worrying about what kind of hairpin to choose from a box of jewelry. The beautiful woman behind her came up. With her well-maintained fingers, she chose an ivory white jade hairpin and inserted it into the mirror. On a good bun.

Gu Yiyi looked around, her lips slightly raised with a hint of a smile, which made her pretty face even more feminine, "My mother has good taste."

Yu Wanyun glanced at her up and down. She put her arm on Gu Yiyi's shoulder and leaned closer. She looked at the face that was somewhat similar to her own in the mirror and reminded, "The Qin family's children will probably arrive in the afternoon. There are countless people in the capital." Keep your eyes on the door of our Gu family."

"How to be a 'caring' and 'well-dressed' sister, I don't think I need to teach you this anymore?"

Gu Yiyi covered her lips and smiled, her smile was lively, she winked playfully, "Don't worry, mom, it's Yiyi's fault."

"Mom, what does my eldest sister look like? Is her personality still as arrogant and fiery as before?"

Although she is only half a year younger than Qin Zhaozhao, she has forgotten her appearance. She vaguely remembers that this eldest sister has a very bad temper, and her words and deeds really don't look like a young lady.

"No matter what you look like or what your personality is, I can never compare to you." Yu Wanyun gently pinched her delicate nose, "You are deeply loved by the master, and you know how to take advantage of the old lady. That pair of siblings I can’t always compare to you and Fu’er.”

Gu Yiyi shook her head, "It's a pity that my brother went to school today, otherwise he could have watched the fun."

"There will always be a chance." Yu Wanyun said.

While the two were talking, they did not take Qin Zhaozhao and Qin Changqing seriously at all, as if these two people were just clowns to set them off.

A maid walked in and saluted them, "Second Miss, Madam, the eldest lady and the young master are at the door."

Yu Wanyun said calmly, "I know."

She turned to look at Gu Yiyi, "Let's go and meet your long-lost eldest sister and younger brother."

……

Qin Changqing and Qinglian left Xinxiang after a long absence. They were very excited along the way. They glanced at every place they passed, as if they wanted to imprint everything they saw in their hearts.

When you step into the grand scene, you will see a prosperity unmatched by other places. Even the manners and manners of the people walking on the street are different from those in Xinxiang, and their accents do not contain a trace of local accent.

It's as if Shengjing's unique characteristics have been integrated into their bones. If they are compared with the people of Chaisang, the obvious gap can be seen at a glance.

Qinglian became more and more restrained. She looked at the cotton skirt on her body with a look of confusion, "Miss, will we be laughed at if we go out in this outfit?"

Qin Changqing leaned on his elbows and looked at the bustling and bustling eyes with boredom. He only felt that all this was not as interesting as the scenery he saw along the way.

When she turned around, she happened to hear Qinglian's words and sneered, "Even if you are wearing gold and silver, standing at the door will make people laugh."

"A monkey that acts as a sideshow, no matter how nice it is, can still make people laugh, right?"

Qinglian was stunned and didn't seem to react.

Qin Zhaozhao originally closed his eyes and took a deep breath. After hearing this, he slowly opened his eyes and said to Qinglian——

"When we return to the Gu Mansion, Mrs. Yu will definitely give us a slap in the face. No matter how we behave, she will definitely find fault with us in front of everyone and make us look bad."

"Even if it's to show off her virtuous virtues or her thoughtfulness and care, it's all just to show the world, but in reality it's just to tease us and let us know that we are just a little bit different from them."

She said calmly, "Mr. Yu must be dissatisfied with our return, not to mention because we were involved in a book about Gu Xuezheng who was punished."

"When we look back on this trip, we must have encountered countless difficulties and glares. Even so, you must not be too agitated or angry."

Qin Zhaozhao didn't take his father seriously at all. He just wanted to cover it up in front of others, but he was extremely reluctant to call him dad in the future.

"The back house of a high-ranking family is full of ulterior motives. Ah Qing, Qing Lian, you two can no longer exercise freedom like in Xinxiang after you return to the house. Remember to read more, listen more, and think more."

Qin Zhaozhao tapped his forehead with his finger, and his light yellow sleeves brushed against the wooden seat, "Do you still remember what I told you before setting off?"

Qin Changyuan and Qinglian straightened up and nodded solemnly.

"This return to Beijing is not as good as you imagined, whether it is people or things." Qin Zhaozhao smiled slightly when he saw the two of them acting like this, intending to lighten the atmosphere, "Although Xinxiang is a small place, apart from a few local snakes , most people’s hearts are simple and kind.”

"But it's different here. This is a place where power and desire breed together, and where money and malice intertwine and multiply."

Qin Zhaozhao lowered his eyes and looked at his slightly swaying skirt, "I'm not saying it's completely bad, but everyone here has their own thoughts and calculations."

"Here, you have to think twice before taking a step. Do you understand this sentence?"

She took the trouble to instill dark things into the two of them before setting off, not because she was afraid that they would hold them back, but because she was afraid that once they stepped into this dispute-ridden place, they would be wronged and plotted, but would have no power to protect themselves.

Qin Zhaozhao was alone and had no mother or family to rely on. She was not sure what would happen to her, so how could she protect these two people by speaking frankly?

It is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish. She can only try her best to let the two of them learn to grow and learn to protect themselves in this place.

Qin Changqing waved his hand, "Sister, don't worry, I am no longer the stupid boy I used to be." He moved his eyes out the window and watched the carriage turn into a quiet lane among the crowds of people, "I have grown up, and I can To protect you and Qinglian."

When Qin Zhaozhao heard this, his pupils shone slightly, like rippling water waves gently rippling.

The coachman's voice came through the car door, "Miss, young master, here we are."

The door curtain was opened, and Qin Zhaozhao glanced at it. The grand door was greeted by women in beautiful makeup, and many people gathered around it.

Perhaps after hearing about Qin Zhaozhao's deeds, they all came over to watch the fun.

Qin Zhaozhao glanced with his bright eyes and soon saw the two people at the door of Gu's house, surrounded by people like stars and stars——

A beautiful woman with a bun, and a young woman standing next to her with a graceful figure and a beautiful face.

Qin Zhaozhao's mind turned quickly and he immediately knew who these two people were.

One is the current mistress of the Gu family, Yu Wanyun, and the other is the original second sister, Gu Yiyi, the apple of Gu Xuezheng's eye.

Qin Changqing sneered lightly, "With such a big posture, those who know are welcoming people, and those who don't know think they are driving people out." He jumped out of the carriage without anyone's help.

Everyone looked around, wanting to see what the eldest lady and young master, whom they had not seen for nearly ten years, looked like.

I saw the young man with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes jump down. He was tall and handsome. Except for his slightly shabby clothes, his demeanor showed nothing humble and cowardly. His flamboyant expression was eye-catching.

Qin Changqing raised his dark eyebrows and looked at these colorful women as nothing, standing on one side with his arms folded.

Everyone whispered, sighing at the young master's appearance and demeanor.

In the next moment, all the sounds disappeared into the air as the next person appeared.

Qinglian quickly calmed down her previous nervousness. She calmly followed Qin Changqing out of the carriage, opened the curtain, and reached out to help the people in the car.

A pair of slender jade fingers stretched out, and the bright yellow skirt swayed gently with the woman's movements.

Immediately afterwards, a face that shocked everyone was revealed.

The woman in the car was sitting upright, her movements were casual but elegant. The bright yellow skirt swayed with her movements, and the lines of water were flowing gracefully, like a begonia quietly blooming.

She leaned out of the car curtain, and her face was like a glow from the sky, which made everyone suffocate.

The woman's eyebrows are like a crescent moon, and her eyes are dark under the moon, like the deep and far sea beyond the line of water and sky. At first glance, she just feels cold, but when she looks at it again, she feels deep and quiet, which makes people unconsciously sink into her. in.

Maybe there was a lot of fire in the car on the road, and the bright red on her cheeks fell on her jade skin like gelatin, like the red leaves and green peach that grew in a day on the snow line, making her beautiful face even more shocking.

Even a suit of humble clothes cannot hide the splendor.

All the people present who were gorgeously dressed and well-groomed all lost their color and were dull in front of this dazzling pearl.

From the moment Qin Zhaozhao got out of the car and showed up, even if there were several glances mixed with strange thoughts around her, she didn't panic at all. She always walked steadily and unhurriedly, which fell into the eyes of some people. Some ladies do it with great grace.

It's not something done deliberately, it seems to be an instinct engraved in one's bones.

No one came up to talk to him, as if he just wanted to stand there and watch Qin Zhaozhao bewildered and make a fool of himself.

Qin Zhaozhao had already noticed this little plot, and without hesitation, walked straight through the crowd to Yu Wanyun, and bowed politely.

"I have seen Mrs."

This sound brought Yu Wanyun back from the shock. She hesitated, as if she didn't believe it, "Are you Zhaozhao?"

Qin Zhaozhao smiled, his eyes as clear as the white snow on the Tianshan Mountains without dust, "Of course it's me. We haven't seen her for nine years. It's normal for my wife not to recognize her."

Yu Wanyun suddenly took a breath of cold air and pinched her palms tightly with the fingers hidden in her sleeves——

Not only is this unrecognizable, it doesn't look even remotely similar to the Qin family!

If Qin Changqing's facial features can still recognize the shadows of Qin and Gu Xuezheng, Qin Zhaozhao seems to have changed. How can he still be the same as before?

Originally, everyone was asked to dress up a little in order to outdo Qin Zhaozhao. However, the more she felt ashamed of herself, the more it made her appear humble, cowardly, and unworthy of the stage.

In the end, she only showed up, and all the limelight was taken away by her!

Yu Wanyun suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis, but she didn't show it on her face. She held Qin Zhaozhao's hand eagerly with both hands, her eyes a little moist, "Good boy, thank you for your hard work along the way."

"Isn't it hard work after traveling all the way? I have already taken care of everything in the house. When you and Changqing come back, you will be the master of the Gu family. If you are short of clothing expenses in the future, just tell me."

As soon as she opened her mouth, she played the role of the perfect matron.

Qin Zhaozhao lowered his eyes and seemed to be a little worried, "Excuse me, Madam, for my thoughts. This carriage is extremely comfortable. Neither Ah Qing nor I have ever been in such a good carriage."

She held Yu Wanyun's hand back gratefully, "My wife specially sent such a carriage to transport the two of us. Zhaozhao is very grateful."

Everyone glanced at the 'extremely comfortable' carriage with extremely weird looks on their faces.

This carriage is very common in the capital city. After sitting for a long time, the back hurts, and the carriage is stumbling and rickety when walking on the rugged road. It is definitely not comfortable. This is the kind of carriage used by ordinary post station coachmen to solicit passengers.

It was such a carriage that could actually make the eldest daughter of the Gu family say such ridiculous things. How bitter and unbearable were her days in the past?

Furthermore, with a wealthy family like the Gu family, it would be easy to get a better one, but now they are just using a carriage that ordinary people would look down on to bring these two people back...

The mistress of the Gu family is really narrow-minded. She looks very happy on the surface, but she is afraid that she still doesn't want her original wife's children to come back.

Everyone shook their heads and looked at Qin Zhaozhao and Qin Changqing with increasingly pitiful eyes.

Sensing that the sight around her became strange, Yu Wanyun gritted her teeth secretly and became wary——

Did this bitch say this intentionally or unintentionally?

Ignoring Yu Wanyun's somewhat stiff expression, Qin Zhaozhao turned his head and scolded softly, "Aqing, what are you still doing? Come here and see Madam."

Qin Changqing seemed a little reluctant, but he still walked over and saluted, "Changqing has met Madam."

Yu Wanyun looked Qin Changqing up and down, and suddenly sighed, "Why are you two so unfamiliar? Now that you've returned to the Gu family, just call me mother."

"Or are you still blaming me for not stopping the nonsense your father said in anger?"

What a nonsense.Qin Zhaozhao sneered. In just two words, he wanted to write off the fact that Gu Xuezheng drove his siblings to the countryside hundreds of miles away and ignored them for several years?

Yu Wanyun's words did not mean anything good.

First, he couldn't wait to establish her authority as the mistress of the house.

If Qin Zhaozhao and Qin Changqing call mother obediently, it will remind everyone once again that she, Yu Wanyun, is the head matron of the Gu family now, not the Qin family whose grass on the grave has long been as tall as hers.

The second is to deliberately mislead the public and downplay everything that Qin Zhaozhao and his brother have suffered in the past nine years.

"Zhao Zhao and Ah Qing don't dare. Since it's not the Gu family name, according to the rules, they don't dare to call it nonsense." Qin Zhaozhao easily blocked the conversation, "Father specially sent someone to escort us back to the house. It's too late for us to be happy, so how dare we blame you? "

She raised her eyes, her eyes clear and sharp as if with thorns, and returned to her gentle look the next moment before others could see clearly.

"My mother passed away unexpectedly that year, and my brother and I couldn't even see each other for the last time. This has become a thorn in the hearts of our siblings." Qin Zhaozhao seemed to be mentioned in a sad place, covering his face and wiping away the tears that filled the corners of his eyes, "I hope Madam will understand."

Yu Wanyun twitched her fingers, and the smile on her face was almost gone.

What a Qin Zhaozhao, so eloquent, she really underestimated him!

In a few words, she defused the hidden danger in her words, and even used the Qin family who had been dead for nine years as a shield to refuse to call her mother, which was tantamount to denying her position as mistress.

Yu Wanyun was thinking a lot at that moment, but little did she know that this conversation had another meaning if someone else saw it——

The siblings were sent away without even seeing their biological mother for the last time. They must have missed their deceased mother terribly.Now that you have finally returned to Beijing, the two of you haven't even visited the grave yet, so you can't wait for them to recognize you as their mother right away?

I heard that the Gu family's back house is restless. Today, I saw that there is such a powerful mistress in the back yard. How can it be peaceful?

Gu Yiyi noticed something was wrong in the atmosphere around her and thought something bad in her heart. She turned sideways to block Yu Wanyun's suddenly uncomfortable expression and smiled softly, attracting everyone's attention.

She tilted her head slightly, and the jade hairpin on her head swayed slightly with the movement, reflecting the shining light. The corners of her slightly hooked mouth showed a bit of innocence and playfulness, "Eldest sister, do you still remember me?"

Qin Zhaozhao glanced at her and nodded, "The second sister was born in a beautiful country, so naturally my sister will remember it."

"When I saw my wife for the first time when I was young, I felt that she was so beautiful that she must be loved by my father. It was true." She seemed to realize that she had said something wrong, and she accidentally left a half sentence to seduce the curiosity of others and then abruptly changed it. The conversation started, "When we met today, the second sister is indeed better than her predecessor."

When Yu Wanyun heard this from the sidelines, her heart was filled with unknown anger.

What does it mean?Are you saying that she was just an Israeli servant who climbed to her current position?

Gu Yiyi also felt something wrong.

They were clearly words of praise, but they came out of Qin Zhaozhao's mouth. No matter what, they didn't feel that way.

National beauty?

With Qin Zhaozhao standing here, who dares to say that the country is beautiful and fragrant?

the student surpasses the master?

If Yu Wanyun treats people with sex, could it mean that she, Gu Yiyi, is not a good person either?

In one sentence, he cursed two people in a roundabout way.

The soft smile on Gu Yiyi's face froze, because Qin Zhaozhao's words were not wrong in front of outsiders, so she could only grit her teeth and accept it, "Thank you for the compliment, sister. Of course it's not as good as my sister."

She emphasized her tone at the end, but Qin Zhaozhao just smiled lightly and replied lightly, "You're welcome, sister."

Gu Yiyi punched the cotton.

Yu Wanyun took a deep breath, knowing that today's situation was completely contrary to what she expected. She didn't want to stay any longer. She quickly said, "It's cold outside, let's go inside."

"You two will go to the house to wash up and rest first, and then go to the main hall to have dinner in the evening. You will just go to visit your father and the old lady."

After that, she stepped into the house first and disappeared from everyone's sight.

The invisible smoke between the three of them in front of the Gu family's gate ended with Qin Zhaozhao gaining the upper hand.

Gu Zhizhi, the third daughter of the Gu family, and Aunt Zheng stood side by side in the corner and watched the whole process without saying a word.

Gu Zhizhi originally just wanted to watch a good show, but she never thought that Qin Zhaozhao was so beautiful and gorgeous. She was afraid that after today, there would be an uproar in the capital.

Her eyes flashed with deep reluctance and jealousy, and her tone was sour, "Auntie, don't they say that these two people are raised in the country, and their behavior must be vulgar, rude, and uncultured? Why do I look at it? Losing the magnanimity of those ladies from aristocratic families in Beijing?"

"Who knows." Aunt Zheng glanced at the blue-faced Yu Wanyun and gloated, "A Phoenix is ​​still a Phoenix even if it is reduced to a lump of earth. A chicken that occupies a golden nest is just a beast with its feathers inserted in it after all. .”

After that, she twisted her waist slightly and walked away in a charming manner, "Go back, you really showed me a lot of fun today."

"Yu Wanyun has a temperament that means spending every penny. I'm sure she won't give up. Let's just wait for the evening to watch a good show, so we can see what else this young lady can do."
