“Mother, were those people invited by Madam Yu to bully you? Why don’t we leave this place? I don’t want to see them bully you,” Gu Lin said earnestly as he held Gu Qingxue’s hand after some thought.
“Lil’ Lin, don’t be afraid and don’t run. Mother won’t let anyone bully us.” Gu Qingxue pulled the three children and sat down in the courtyard. She pinched their little faces and comforted them.
“Mother, will they really not bully us?” Dumby asked carefully as he held Gu Qingxue’s hand.
It was not easy for them to not be bullied again. He did not want to live the same life as before.
“Don’t worry, they won’t. Mother will take care of this in a while. You don’t have to worry.” Gu Qingxue did not panic at all. She sat down calmly and waited.
She had already guessed that this day would come long after she had chased Madam Yu and Chen Laifu out of the courtyard house.
Moreover, if she was not wrong, the other party’s purpose for coming this time was not just to suppress her.
While Gu Qingxue was calmly waiting at home, the news that the Gu family of the capital had sent people to Dafu Village had already spread to every corner of Dafu Village.
To the people of the poor and remote villages, the Jing City was the most magnificent place in the world. Only the truly noble people could live there.
Although the people of Dafu Village knew that Gu Qingxue’s maiden family was in Jing City, for so many years, the Gu family had only sent the Yu couple to bully Gu Qingxue every day. Other than that, they did not care about her at all, no one in Dafu Village had regarded her as the eldest daughter from Jing City for a long time. Today, people suddenly came from the capital. They were sitting in the most magnificent carriage, and a group of attendants followed closely behind, could it be that they were here to take Gu Qingxue and the three children back to Jing City?
However, why did they not pick them up earlier? They had to wait until this moment to send someone over.
All the villagers in Dafu Village were extremely curious. They stretched their necks and watched the carriage stop steadily outside the courtyard house where Gu Qingxue lived.
Madam Yu and Chen Laifu entered the village with this carriage. Along the way, they had received countless envious gazes from the villagers. At this moment, a lackey came forward and lifted the curtain of the door, saying, “Nanny Zhuang, this way please.”
“Okay.” Under the curious gazes of the crowd, a well-dressed old woman got off the carriage with the help of a servant girl.
The door of the courtyard house was wide open. Gu Qingxue sat in the courtyard and could clearly see what was happening outside the door.
Seeing that the old woman was accompanied by six attendants and two servant girls, Gu Qingxue could not help but want to laugh.
What a grand manner. It was hard to tell who was the servant and who was the master.
“Young Miss, this is Nanny Zhuang from Jing City. She came here under the orders of the Eldest Madam to see you.” Chen Laifu turned his head and hurried Gu Qingxue when he saw that she was still sitting in the courtyard.
“The people under the Eldest Madam are merely servants. Naturally, she is the only one who came to greet me. There is no reason for me to go out and see her.” Gu Qingxue laughed lightly and her sharp gaze fell on Nanny Zhuang.
When the originally arrogant Nanny Zhuang heard these words, her expression changed, and the way she looked at Gu Qingxue instantly changed.
She raised her head and looked into the courtyard. The moment Nanny Zhuang saw Gu Qingxue, she could not believe what she had seen.
Nanny Zhuang had long heard many rumors about Gu Qingxue. Back in the Gu family, this Eldest Miss had a delicate temperament. Ever since she was married to Dafu Village, she had suffered even more.
