C39 (1/2)
The horse carriage entered from the side door and arrived in front of a falling flower gate.
Yun Xiang and Bi Meng got out of the car first, then turned around to help Gu Jinzhu.
Gu Jinzhu could only see that the side of the gate was filled with vines, and all kinds of flowers were falling down, making it look very delicate and beautiful. On both sides of the gate stood a few young servants, who had just left their hair and were neatly dressed in their clothes.
Someone came and went, but they were all curiously staring at her. There were even a few bold girls who were constantly patrolling Gu Jinzhu's body.
Even though she didn't show any contempt, she was already annoyed. How could a strict and proper house allow a servant to be so presumptuous as to look at her master in the eye? She could not help but glare at him angrily.
At the door, a woman with a group of maidservants was waiting for them. When they saw them rushing over, they smiled and greeted them, ”Yo, this is the lady, right? ”The old servant's eyes were blurry and he almost couldn't recognize her. She really is a goddess …”
That woman was in her 50s to 60s. She had a round face with sharp eyes and eyebrows. Before she opened her mouth, she was already smiling and looking at the peaceful atmosphere. Gu Jinzhu had already remembered when she left the clan. She recognized that it was her stepmother, Mrs. Yao's wet nurse, Senior Servant Ping. She was the most caring person in the clan, so she was the most dignified in the clan.
Senior Servant Ping made a gesture of respect, but Gu Jinzhu quickly stopped her with a smile, ”I don't dare to be Senior Servant's present. After so many years, this Senior Servant is still as energetic as ever.”
”It's all thanks to young lady.” Madam Ping smiled and narrowed her eyes, getting up from her seat. ”Young lady, please go in quickly. Madam has been waiting for you all day and has been waiting for you to come back.”
Everyone walked inside with Gu Jinzhu in their arms. Once they entered the Dazzling Flower Gate, they would enter a corridor with hand shafts on both sides.
He walked through the hall and down the stairs. After he turned past a shadow wall, he arrived at Yao Family's courtyard.
There were three main rooms facing south and north. There were one ear room on each side and three side rooms on both sides of the main house on both sides. Both of them had red walls and were decorated with green tiles.
At this moment, it was the evening. The yard was covered by strange flowers and trees. A breeze blew by and the fragrance of flowers wafted in the air. There were about a dozen little girls at the door of the room and under the porch. They were all wearing beautiful dresses and looked pretty. The bamboo curtain on the door had already been removed, leaving only the pearl curtain. Within the bead curtain, faint sounds of laughter could be heard.
The little girl lifted up the curtain and stopped talking and turned her gaze towards the door.
Gu Jinzhu raised her head to look. The interior was luxuriously decorated, a drop of water was carved from heavy fragrant wood furniture, and the carving technique was complex and magnificent. The woman sitting on the warm and warm bed in the middle was dressed in a lotus color satin coat, and wore a golden phoenix head step on her head.
A few women and two girls were sitting next to Lady Yao. Gu Jinzhu took a few hurried steps forward and greeted them, ”Mother.”
Even if she wasn't willing, Yao Fei still carried the title of the legitimate mother, so she had to show the proper etiquette.
After Gu Jinzhu knelt down and kowtowed, Lady Yao feebly reached out her hand to get her to stand. She pulled Gu Jinlong close to her and carefully sized her up, ”You can be considered to be back. Have you been involved in this all along?”
Gu Jinzhu half-lowered her head and said, ”It's alright, I'll have to trouble mother to keep this in mind.”
