Wang especially remembered that Gu Jinchu always came to pay his respects with Mother Cheng.

Mother Cheng was the old lady's companion. After she got married, the old lady sent her to Yuanyuan Hall.

Gu Jinchu noticed Wang's gaze and asked her with a smile, "Sister-in-law, you can say whatever you want."

Wang couldn't help but twitch her lips, then revealed her dimples, and a gentle smile welled up in her almond-shaped eyes, "The maid behind my sister-in-law looks a little unfamiliar, why is Madam Cheng not here today?"

Gu Jinchu's eyes fell on the maid behind her and replied with a smile: "Last time, after Madam Zhang helped me scold the servants in Yuanyuan Hall, I thought about taking them out to see the world more often."

Amid the different looks of the master and servant of the Wang family, he continued with a smile, "This will prevent them from getting in the way of someone at some point in the future, hearing some inexplicable words, and having to trouble a servant to come here and take over my duties."

When Wang heard what Gu Jinchu said, she couldn't help but look at Old Madam Jiang.

The old lady was feeding Chen Ge'er fruit with her mouth turned sideways. She seemed not to hear their conversation, or maybe she heard it but didn't want to care.

None of this matters. What matters is why Gu Jinchu would bring up such a thing directly in front of the old lady and say that.

It lacks the bearing and grace that a lady from a noble family should have, and is also too petty.

Instead, it seems a bit petty, which is really hard to accept.

You know, Madam Jiang was born into the Chang family, a great scholar. She had been well-read since childhood and could be regarded as a model of a lady from a noble family.

Master Jiang Wu became famous at a young age and was hailed as a young genius. He won the top spot in the imperial examination at the age of eighteen.

As the youngest son of Duke Dingguo, Jiang Nansheng's marriage was carefully chosen and was delayed until he was twenty-three.

With the Emperor's imperial decree granting marriage, Mr. Jiang Wu actually married the Princess of Anping, who looked gorgeous on the outside but was actually rotten on the inside.

Thinking about the future, when the old lady and Mr. Jiang Wu would have a headache because of Gu Jinchu's rude words, Wang's dissatisfaction with Gu Jinchu actually disappeared little by little.

As if she could foresee the old lady and Mr. Jiang Wu's regret, Wang became more and more cheerful, and acted magnanimous and did not care about Gu Jinchu.

Turning his head, he said to Madam Zhang behind him, "You have upset Madam Wu, why don't you apologize to her?"

At this time, Mother Zhang was secretly complaining in her heart. Her face was as pale as paper, her fat body was covered in cold sweats, and she was shaking slightly as she stood there.

Unexpectedly, the Fifth Madam, who had lost her temper that day, would bring the matter to the old lady of Minghui Hall, which made her even more embarrassed than when she was at Yuanyuan Hall.

She walked out from behind Wang and bowed respectfully to Gu Jinchu, "Fifth Madam, please be generous and don't mind my impoliteness."

Gu Jinchu put the peeled walnut kernels into a small dish, patted the crumbs in his hands, and lowered his eyes to look at Mother Zhang, who had shortened her body by half a head.

The housekeeper of the first house went to Yuanyuan Hall and acted arrogantly. The Crown Prince's wife wanted to pretend that nothing had happened. How is that possible!

She had given Wang this opportunity for a long time, and the Crown Prince's wife helped her recall without mentioning it. It was also Gu Jinchu's intention not to bring Mother Cheng to pay respects to the old lady today.

At the moment, the sisters-in-law from the other two rooms are not in the main room, so she has been kind enough.

For the first time, he did not hide his edge and said with a smile: "It means that my sister-in-law is kind and merciful."

"If such a lack-of-honor servant were placed in my Yuanyuan Hall, I would definitely whip her until she realizes her mistakes."

After hearing these words, Wang tightly clenched the handkerchief in her hand. It was the first time someone spoke to her like this since she married into the Duke Dingguo's Mansion.

I couldn't help but think of Gu Jinchu's brutal and brutal behavior of whipping the Fuso people in the street.

At this time, a servant's voice came from outside the door, saying that the second wife Liu came with her two daughters to pay her respects.

The eldest daughter Jiang Miaohan is dignified, gentle and calm. Her face perfectly combines the advantages of her parents. The necklace with eight-treasure gold pattern makes her look even whiter.

The fourth young lady, Jiang Miaozhu, is lively, cheerful and enthusiastic, with narrow and long eyes resembling her mother's, and a naive innocence.

The two legitimate daughters have completely different personalities.

After respectfully greeting their elders, the two sisters sat behind their mother.

Jiang Miaozhu's eyes rolled around as she looked around curiously.

In fact, her mother had brought her and her sister here for a while, so they could hear everything that was said in the room clearly from the hall.

Therefore, at this moment she was very interested in the whip that her fifth aunt mentioned, until her sister Jiang Miaohan stuffed the winter dates into her hands, which made her look away.

When Madam Jiang saw them coming, she smiled and said to the Second Madam, "Xiao Yan, the Madam Yuan I mentioned to you last time has been invited back by me."

Xiaoyan is the second wife's maiden name, and Gu Jinchu was surprised by the old lady's mention of Nanny Yuan.

In her previous life, after she was granted marriage by the Emperor, her mother hired a governess from the palace to prevent her from breaking the rules and being looked down upon by the Jiang family.

At that time, in order to learn the rules, Nanny Yuan made her suffer a lot, but now it seems that she has benefited a lot.

Now that I hear this name again, I wonder if it is the same person my mother-in-law mentioned.

The second wife stood up upon hearing this and said to the eldest daughter beside her, "Why don't you get up and thank grandma."

It is very difficult to invite Nanny Yuan. Many noble families are lining up to invite her.

If I can get her teachings, I will be looked up to in my husband's family in the future.

Jiang Miaohan bowed and said, "Sister Han will definitely not let Grandmother down."

Madam Jiang smiled lovingly, "Madam Yuan is an old lady from the palace. Although she is strict and harsh in her work, she is very cultured and knows the rules.

If you suffer at her hands, please don't blame me for being nosy in your heart."

The Second Madam smiled and said, "Mother, you are worrying too much. If Sister Han does anything wrong, just let Madam Yuan beat her with a stick."

Judging from what the old lady said, Nanny Yuan came here not only to teach Han Jie'er.

The two girls in the mansion who are not yet of marriageable age and are a little older are the second young lady of the third house, and the third young lady of the first house.

They are both about the same age, but it is not known which one is going to be married.

Just when I thought of this, Mr. Jiang San and his wife came over with the second young lady.

When they heard that the old lady had invited an old man from the palace to teach their daughter, Mr. Jiang and his wife were extremely happy.

It also allowed Gu Jinchu to see that the Nanny Yuan mentioned by the old lady was indeed an old friend from the previous life.
