Li Decai hadn't heard clearly what He Dachun called Gu Yunxi before, but this time, he finally heard it clearly.

His mouth opened wide, his eyes almost popped out, and he pointed at Gu Yunxi in disbelief and asked, "You, you, which family's young lady are you from?"

"What young lady from which family? Our young lady is naturally from the Lu family!" He Dachun answered without thinking.

When these words came out, Li Decai was so scared that his legs went limp.

It’s over, it’s over. Gu Yunxi is prettier and more charming than Gu Yunyan. He also thought that Gu Yunxi was just the niece of Gu Laoer!

No, Gu Yunxi, Mrs. Lu, is the niece of Gu Laoer?

Damn it, why didn’t anyone tell him before that Gu Lao Er’s niece is Lord Lu’s wife, Madam Lu! ! !

Li Decai's legs were shaking, his face was pale, and he hurriedly said to Gu Yunxi: "Oh, it turned out to be Madam Lu. I was so blind and offended Madam Lu! Damn it!"

Then, Li Decai gritted his teeth and slapped himself in the face cruelly.

Everyone in the Gu family's yard was stunned. Li Decai's servants, Li San, Li Si, and Li Wu, also realized the seriousness of the matter. They knelt down and begged for mercy.

"Master, it's all our fault. We didn't ask clearly and didn't know that Miss Gu's cousin was Madam Lu."

"Mrs. Lu, if we knew you were Miss Gu's cousin, we wouldn't dare to do this even if we had ten times the courage!"

Li Decai had a sad face as he looked at the servants who were kowtowing to Gu Yunxi and begging for mercy, and suddenly a surge of anger burned in his heart.

He kicked Li San, Li Si and Li Wu hard.

"It's all your fault. You offended the Gu family without investigating anything. You are a bunch of incompetent slaves. I will sell you all out later!"

Then, he turned around and said to Gu Yunxi with a smile: "Madam Lu, they are blind and I was deceived by them. Don't worry, I will sell these slaves when I get back!"

Gu Yunxi looked at Li Decai and the Li family servants begging for mercy in a panic, sneered, and said, "Didn't you say just now that if my cousin Yunyan can't do it, I can do it too?"

Li Decai shook his head like a rattle and said hurriedly: "No, no, no, what I said was nonsense, Madam Lu, I know I was wrong, in fact, I dare not..."

There is nothing he is afraid of. Now, he just hits a wall and is willing to lower his face and beg for mercy.

Gu Yunxi knew what was going on, but Li Decai had indeed offended her just now. If it weren't for her status, she might have been bullied by Li Decai today.

"I seemed to have heard you talking about something about a jade pendant just now?" Gu Yunxi said lightly.

Gu Yunyan was standing aside. As soon as Gu Yunxi's identity was revealed, the attitude of Li Decai and the Li family's servants changed drastically. She felt envious and jealous.

Hearing Gu Yunxi asking about the jade pendant, Gu Yunyan hurriedly asked Gu Laoer to take out the jade pendant.

"Sister Yunxi, this is the jade pendant. It was given to me by Young Master Li as an apology for almost bumping into me."

"But this matchmaker came to my house and talked nonsense, insisting that this jade pendant was a token of love given to me by Young Master Li. Young Master Li also wanted to force me to be his concubine, oh, the sixteenth concubine!"

Although Gu Yunyan was jealous, at the critical moment, she also wanted to use Gu Yunxi's identity to resolve the issue of the jade pendant.

And this jade pendant is said to be worth a lot of silver. If I can keep the jade pendant and pawn it, I can get a lot of silver in return. Then I will have money for my brother's studies, and the family won't have to rely on my uncle for support.

When the matchmaker heard that Gu Yunxi was Lord Lu's wife, she was so scared that she hid aside, lowered her head and dared not say a word.

When Gu Yunyan pointed it out, he was so scared that he fell to his knees and kowtowed on the ground, begging for mercy.

"It's not me, it's not me, it's unfair, Madam Lu, it was Young Master Li who asked me to do this, it was Young Master Li who said so!" The matchmaker cried out in injustice.

At this time, she didn't dare to take on everything for Li Decai.

Li Decai was so angry that his eyes turned red. He spat and cursed at the matchmaker: "You old hag, how dare you slander me? I just told you that this jade pendant is an heirloom of my family. When did I say it was a token of love?"

"Mrs. Lu, there must be some misunderstanding here. I do like Miss Yunyan, but I wouldn't have anything to do with her privately!"

Hearing Li Decai making excuses for himself, Gu Yunyan was stunned and even a little suspicious. Could it be that the matchmaker was wrong?

And Gu Laoer was also very surprised that this Young Master Li actually confused right and wrong in front of their entire Gu family!

Gu Yunxi smiled and said, "It turned out to be a misunderstanding caused by the matchmaker hired by Young Master Li. Then Young Master Li should communicate clearly with the matchmaker to avoid causing too much trouble in front of my mother and affecting my father's rest."

Boss Gu has not recovered yet, and the new house over there has not yet been built. For a while, he still has to live in the same yard with Boss Gu's family. The noise in the yard will indeed affect him.

Li Decai quickly bowed his head and nodded: "Yes, yes, Madam Lu, this is all a misunderstanding. I will ask the matchmaker to apologize to you right now!"

After saying that, Li Decai glared at the matchmaker and said sternly, "Why don't you quickly apologize to Madam Lu, Mr. Gu, Mr. Gu, Miss Yunyan and the others?"

The matchmaker had a sad face. She didn't expect that she would have to suffer such injustice just for being a matchmaker?

However, the matchmaker knew very well what kind of person Young Master Li was and what methods he had. If she did not apologize today and satisfy Young Master Li, she would not be able to stay in Jihu Town in the future.

The matchmaker thought it through, took a deep breath, and said, "Mrs. Lu..."

He had barely started to speak when he was interrupted harshly by Gu Yunyan.

"Hey, shut up. Our family doesn't dare to ask anyone to apologize anymore. Master Li, since you said it was a misunderstanding, take your people and leave my house!"

"And the jade pendant. It was the apology you gave me back then. There is absolutely no reason for me to return it."

Gu Yunyan still wanted to take the jade pendant for herself, but there was no way because the quality of the jade was too good.

The matchmaker was stunned and looked at Li Decai, not knowing whether she should continue.

Li Decai didn't expect Gu Yunyan to be so unreasonable. Mrs. Lu didn't even say a word!

After thinking for a while, Li Decai forced a smile and said, "Since I gave the jade pendant to Miss Yunyan, it is naturally yours."

Then, he bowed to Gu Yunxi again and said, "Mrs. Lu, I will take my people away now."

Gu Yunxi glanced at the jade pendant in Gu Yunyan's hand and said, "Yunyan, if it's not yours, just give it back."

Gu Yunyan bit her lip, unwilling.
