The Duke's wife moved her lips, as if she wanted to say something, but Yu Wanyun cut her off.

Her face seemed a little worried.

"The kid said he wanted to get ready again, but he still hasn't started after urging him a few times."

"My Yi'er was afraid that we would be late, so she proposed to go ahead."

As she spoke, she looked outside the room frequently, her tone seemed worried, "I really don't know if the child will arrive in time."

The prefect's wife sneered.

"Where can I go to a banquet and pick someone up? I'm not a relative of the emperor, so why are you putting on such a big show?"

Yu Wanyun shook her head.

"Madam, you are serious. Zhao Zhao is not that kind of child. It's just that he has been in Zhuangzi for a few years and he still doesn't understand some of the rules."

She smiled, like a mother who tolerates her wayward child.

"Just teach the rules slowly, and you will learn them one day."

The prefect's wife snorted.

"Mrs. Gu, you are just too indulgent. She has been back in Beijing for more than a month. During this time, she has learned some rules. Even the stupidest person can understand them."

"I think it's not that I can't learn it, but that I don't want to learn it. With such no manners and manners, how can I be worthy of becoming a lady among all the ladies?"

She has always been an outspoken person, and as soon as these words came out, several ladies around her already had a bad impression of Qin Zhaozhao, whom they had never met.

Yu Wanyun sighed.

"I'm afraid that if the control is too strict, the child will easily develop a rebellious attitude. After all, I am not her biological mother, and this child..."

She hesitated to speak, as if she felt that she had said too much, so she couldn't help but smile awkwardly.

"Sorry, I said too much."

The lady around her understood, and couldn't help but sympathize with Mrs. Gu.

Qin Zhaozhao is the daughter of the late Qin family and the eldest daughter of the Gu family.

Coupled with those special past experiences, Yu, as a step-in-law, naturally has many things that are inconvenient to manage.

As for rebellion...

I'm afraid it was the rumored Miss Gu who acted recklessly and vulgarly and had a bad temper that gave her such a headache.

Yu Wanyun lowered her eyes, but a smile slowly appeared on her lips.

While the ladies were talking about Qin Zhaozhao, whom they had never met before, the Duke's wife in the crowd slowly frowned.

The gaze he looked at Yu Wanyun gradually became uneasy.

The prefect's wife saw it with shrewd eyes, and she asked puzzledly.

"Madam, what's wrong with you?"

The Duke's wife calmly looked away and responded.

"I have already met the eldest lady of the Gu family you are talking about."

Everyone was stunned.

"You think she's vulgar and rude, but I don't think so."

The Duke's wife glanced at Yu Wanyun meaningfully.

"From what I can see, the child Zhao Zhao's manners and manners can be regarded as a role model for other women."

Everyone looked at each other, confused by the Duke's wife's words.

And the next second, they knew why the Duke's wife had such a high opinion of a woman.

I saw a woman who looked like a goddess walking out of the warm inner room.

Wearing a pale pink brocade skirt, embroidered with vivid rose patterns, her slender white fingers were wrapped around the stove, and her neck was wrapped in pink rabbit velvet, which made her cheeks look like white jade.

His steps were calm and dignified, and his gestures were even more pleasing to the eye.

Looking at the entire capital in terms of appearance and demeanor, no one can compare to the woman in front of him.

Everyone suddenly thought that one of the imperial concubines from the palace was coming, but they heard the woman walking towards them and bowing.

"Zhao Zhao has met all the ladies."

She raised her head to face the duchess with admiration on her face, and the smile floating in her beautiful eyes was as clear and light as clear water.

"Zhaozhao came a little early, but he disturbed the Duke's wife."

After finishing speaking, he apologized and explained to the ladies.

"When I came here, the snow suddenly became heavy and the ends of my hair were wet. I borrowed the opportunity to wring my hair in the backyard of the Duke's wife, so I didn't have time to say hello to all the ladies."

"Zhaozhao is rude."

A faint smile finally appeared on the face of the Duke's wife.

"You kid is knowledgeable and polite, but you're only half a quarter of an hour ahead of schedule. It's not a nuisance."

Her words invisibly explained to everyone the fact that Qin Zhaozhao had already arrived.

Gu Zhizhi, who was behind the crowd, saw someone who shouldn't be here, her eyes widened, and she made a sound in surprise.

"Qin Zhaozhao? Why are you here?"

Qin Zhaozhao glanced at her with a smile on his lips.

"What Third Sister said is strange. Since we are attending a banquet, why can't I appear here?"

Gu Zhizhi glared, "But when we came out, mother clearly said you were still in the house..."

Yu Wanyun was also a little surprised, and forced a smile upon hearing this.

"You kid, why didn't you tell your mother that you were here?"

She said intentionally, "It's because I'm afraid mother won't let you come."

Qin Zhaozhao looked at Yu Wanyun, seemingly surprised and puzzled, "Is it possible that mother arrived just now?"

She raised her hand to cover her half-open lips.

"When I went out, I saw only a carriage. I thought that my mother and sisters had set off early. I was afraid that I might have misunderstood the time and delay the party, so I set off in a hurry."

"I didn't expect that I came early."

One sentence overturned everything Yu Wanyun said before.

With the help of the Duke's wife just now, the suspicious eyes of all the ladies fell on Yu Wanyun.

Rude and rude?Qin Zhaozhao's demeanor was comparable to that of coming out of the palace, and even the ladies present did not dare to compare.

Also receiving etiquette instruction, some people seem to be born as nobles.

Even this is not true at all. I'm afraid that what Yu Wanyun said just now is probably adulterated.

These ladies all came from the back house. They didn't know that they were being used as gunmen, so they couldn't help but feel irritated and stayed away from Yu Wanyun.

The prefect's wife realized it later and glared at Yu Wanyun, feeling strangely angry.

"Mrs. Gu, is it possible that there is another eldest lady in your Gu family?"

"Why do I, Madam, see that this eldest lady is not the same person as Mrs. Gu said."

Yu Wanyun's whole face turned stiff.

Qin Zhaozhao said with a smile, "Madam, could you be joking? There is only one Zhaozhao in the house."

After saying that, she took a deep look at Yu Wanyun, who no longer knew how to deal with herself.

"Yes, ma'am?"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Gu Yiyi quickly changed the topic.

"Sister, this dress is really nice. It is indeed the craftsmanship of Linglong Pavilion. It makes me happy just to look at it."

she laughs.

"It's not in vain that my mother gave you ten taels of silver that day. I begged for a long time that day, but my mother only gave me three taels of silver."

"Seeing how partial she treats her sister, my sister is envious of her sister."

A lady was surprised: "This dress is so expensive? It costs ten taels of silver?"

Gu Yiyi nodded, her face looking pure.

"Yes, it is said that Linglong Pavilion only sells one hundred pieces of this rose pattern fabric, and my sister just happened to buy the last piece."

"It's true that these clothes are really a man's clothes. These ten taels of silver are not wasted at all on my sister."

She emphasized the last two words, saying overtly and secretly that Qin Zhaozhao spent money like water and did not know how to be thrifty just for a piece of clothing.
