Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

Chapter 211: Drive Guo Cuiyan away

Guo Cuiyan couldn't help but tremble in her heart when she saw Jingshu coming.

Although Xu Wanning was rude to her sarcastic remarks, Xu Wanning was not scheming, and Guo Cuiyan was not afraid of her. What Guo Cuiyan was worried about was that Shen Jingshu, who usually looked kind, was actually very mean and mean.

The maid opened the curtain and Jingshu slowly entered. After entering the room and greeting Mrs. Guo slightly, she sat down on the chair. Before Mrs. Guo could speak to her, Jingshu looked at Guo Cuiyan and said, "My cousin is really frightened today."

Jingshu’s tone was kind and comforting.

Guo Cuiyan didn't know what kind of medicine Jingshu was selling in the gourd. She rolled her eyes and replied perfunctorily: "Thanks to my sister-in-law for rushing to save me in time, otherwise I wouldn't have the dignity to live."

As he said that, Guo Cuiyan lay in Guo's arms again and began to cry pitifully.

Seeing that her niece was in such trouble, Ms. Guo cursed heartbrokenly, "I never thought that Shunxi would be so cruel and so ambitious that she wanted to pursue my niece's plans."

Jingshu picked up the teacup, took a sip, and comforted Mr. Guo: "People's hearts are unpredictable, but fortunately my cousin has auspicious stars."

Ms. Guo didn’t know the truth, and she really thought that it was Jing Shu and Xu Wanning who saved her niece. She said gratefully to Jing Shu: “I really have to thank my mistress today.”

Jingshu said politely: "Second aunt is polite. We are all members of the same family. We can't thank you for anything. Seeing my cousin suffer, is it possible that I, the sister-in-law, can still stand by and watch."

Hearing Jingshu's polite words, Mrs. Guo remembered that she often did things to embarrass Jingshu based on her status, and she felt a little embarrassed on her face.

Guo Cuiyan didn't know what kind of medicine Jing Shu was selling in the gourd. She didn't know what it was, so she just sat aside dully and glanced at Jing Shu quietly from the corner of her eyes.

When Xu Wanning heard Jing Shu's words, she didn't understand why. She kept winking at Jing Shu as if she was killing a chicken and wiping her neck.

Jing Shu quietly held Xu Wanning down, with a gentle smile still on her face, and said to Mrs. Guo: "Although we can't let go of our cousin, it's just that after something like this happened, I, the mistress, don't dare to keep her in the house anymore. ”

Hearing this, Guo Cuiyan understood Jing Shu’s intention.

 This is an excuse to drive her away!

Without waiting for Guo's words, Guo Cuiyan cried and said: "What do you mean, cousin? I came to seek refuge with my aunt. My stepmother is very difficult to deal with, and I have no choice. If my cousin insists on driving me away, she can't." Not pushing me into a pit of fire.”

After saying that, she pulled Guo and begged: "Aunt, you know that my stepmother has been treating me harshly. I have only lived a happy life with you for a few days. I don't want to go back. At worst, I won't get married. I will stay with you for the rest of my life." Just leave it to you."

Xu Wanning couldn't help but said: "Cousin, what's the point? We and you are not close relatives. Do you regard this place as a place of refuge? Are you still going to stay?"

After hearing what her daughter-in-law said, Mrs. Guo's face darkened. She rolled her eyes at Xu Wanning and said displeasedly: "How can you be such a sister-in-law? My niece has only lived here for a few days and she has no use for you." Yours, there is no place for you to chase people away."

Seeing that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were about to quarrel again, Jingshu quickly grabbed Xu Wanning and winked at her to calm her down.

Xu Wanning then closed her mouth angrily.

Jing Shu smiled at Mrs. Guo and said, "It's not that we want to drive my cousin away, but something like this happened, which alerted the governor. It means that my cousin accidentally killed Na Shunxi out of self-defense. She doesn't have to bear the crime, but this matter It must be spread, and it will definitely affect my cousin’s reputation.” Mr. Guo is a selfish person, and if this happened to his niece, if it spread, it will definitely affect himself.

She was thinking about the pros and cons, and her mind became active.

Jing Shu took the opportunity to say: "As the head of the family, I don't dare to keep my cousin in the house. In the past few days, Jiangdong has just received a distinguished guest, and my grandmother is busy getting close to her mother's family. This matter has not yet reached her ears." , I sent someone to send my cousin back. Otherwise, if grandma finds out about this, she is the most important person in terms of face and honor, and she will definitely blame us. "

Mrs. Guo is most afraid of the old lady. If something like this happens to her niece, if the old lady knows about it, she will be the first to question her.

Mrs. Guo looked at her niece sarcastically: "Your sister-in-law is right. It's really hard for my aunt to keep you here."

Guo Cuiyan didn't want to leave, it was just that she didn't become the master of the palace after all her efforts. Her parents' family was indeed a wolf's den. Her father only knew how to eat, drink, whore, and gamble, but didn't care about her. Her stepmother tried every means to exploit her.

When she was at home, her stepmother was thinking about how to use her to climb the branches. People from good families would naturally look down on people like hers, so her stepmother didn't care about her life and death, and looked for her as a stepmother from a wealthy family. Like her, those men are all half-old men, and some of them could be her grandfathers.

Guo Cuiyan saw Mrs. Guo being persuaded by Jingshu both softly and hardly and vomited. She quickly knelt down in front of Mrs. Guo and cried: "Aunt, that's all for others. Don't you care about your niece's life? Just let me go home. It's pushing me into a pit of fire. I won't go back, and I won't get married. I will just stay with you, old man, and serve you."

When her niece cried and made trouble like this, Mrs. Guo couldn't help but feel soft again. She looked at Jingshu and hesitated: "Little mistress, do you think there is no other way? My niece has a weak temperament and is a filial child. After this, It's all Shunxi's fault, Yan'er is innocent."

Jingshu smiled slightly and said calmly: "Second aunt, that Shunxi is indeed a bastard, but he came into the house because of your relationship."

Ms. Guo was speechless and replied with a downcast face: "I didn't know he was such a beast. If I knew, how could I let him enter the house?"

Jingshu smiled and replied: "Of course we believe that you are unjust, but if the old lady finds out that you have such a relative, I'm afraid she will have a problem with you."

Mr. Guo said: "Who is a relative of a beast dressed like a beast?"

Jingshu didn't want to talk to her about this matter and continued to talk about Guo Cuiyan.

"This is indeed Shunxi's fault. My cousin is indeed innocent. But in this world, there are so many people who add insult to injury and tell jokes. Who has the bodhisattva heart to defend my cousin? It's good if you don't pour dirty water on your cousin." Well, now that my cousin is in Beijing, she won’t be able to find a good family, so she might as well go home, don’t you think that’s right?”

Ms. Guo lowered her eyes and started to worry about it again.

Jingshu continued: "Besides, if something like this happens to my cousin, it will inevitably damage the reputation of my eldest brother, who still needs to be an official."

Mr. Guo valued her son's career most. After hearing this, she finally made up her mind: "Then just as the mistress said, let's send Yan'er back."

This time, before Guo Cuiyan could speak, Xu Wanning immediately jumped out and said cheerfully: "Okay! Mother-in-law, my daughter-in-law will order someone to prepare it now, and she will send her cousin off on her way tomorrow."
