Gu Pingting wanted to say more, but a classmate patted her wrist gently. As she opened the curtain of the sedan chair, she also noticed the carriage parked in front of the marquis's mansion.

Seeing that the other party was silent, Pei Jiuniang had no intention of staying in the carriage, so she gently opened the door and stepped off the carriage.

Everyone looked at the person getting out of the carriage in astonishment.

The first thing you see is a light green figure, wearing a dress that is exquisitely embroidered with peony patterns. She is dressed neatly and her sleeves are fluttering.

And her overall demeanor when she got off the car also earned praise.

She had her hair in a bun, with a dragon and phoenix hairpin inserted diagonally, which made her look simple yet elegant.

Looking at this, several female students couldn't help but look at themselves.

All ashamed.

Gu Pingting also gritted her teeth secretly, but she had not yet linked the other party to someone she knew.

I just thought she was a lady from some family, maybe she came to visit my mother, no, maybe she came to buy those things from my cousin Wen Rong.

After all, those things are extremely scarce goods, so it is normal for someone to use backdoor connections to get them.

Thinking of this, the corner of her mouth raised, and she was about to take the opportunity to praise cousin Wen Rong a few more words, but she was suddenly startled.

she? !

"Pei Jiuniang, why is it you?!"

Gu Pingting couldn't control herself and just blurted out what she said.

At the same time, Pei Jiuniang also turned around slowly and was not surprised at all when she saw it was Gu Pingting.

After all, she had just heard the most sincere evaluation of her by her sister-in-law.

Since her rebirth, her mind has always been on Brother Yu. Although she had quarreled with Liu and Gu Lanzhi several times, she did not think of Gu Pingting for a while.

She remembered that in her previous life, Gu Pingting came back two years later.

At that time, she was already working with Wen Rong.

She was extremely busy, so Wen Rong had plenty of time to spend with Gu Pingting.

Wen Rong is very good at pleasing people, and she bribed Gu Pingting into saying only good things about her.

But in Gu Pingting's eyes, she was just a shrew who was unworthy of Gu Tingzhi and couldn't even teach her own children because of Wen Rong's influence.

Gu Pingting even openly made fun of her at a banquet and said that it would be great if Wen Rong could be her sister-in-law.

By the way, Gu Pingting also thought about cooperating with Wen Rong on her behalf. After all, in her eyes, those things were all Wen Rong’s ideas. She paid almost nothing and just got dividends every month. This money was like picking it up for free.

But Wen Rong politely refused.

Le Gu Pingting felt that it was Pei Jiuniang who was interfering.

He hated Pei Jiuniang so much that he gnashed his teeth and every time he saw her, he would not be satisfied unless he complained or said a few sarcastic words to her.

She was not nice to Brother Yu either, and would belittle him as soon as they met.

Brother Yu suffered a lot of injustice at her hands.

In her previous life, she only thought that Gu Pingting was a child. After all, when she married Gu Tingzhi, Gu Pingting was still young, and she almost watched her grow up.

But now think about it, how is it small?

What's more, she spent a lot of money to support her studies.

At that time, Gu Pingting was full of praise for her sister-in-law.

It was agreed that she would borrow it, but she didn't mention it, and she didn't ask for it. Thinking of this, Pei Jiuniang raised her eyebrows slightly, looking displeased, and said to Gu Pingting who had already walked down from the carriage and stood in front of her.

"You are Pingting? I haven't seen you for a few years. How come you haven't made any progress? Where did you study? You are shouting and yelling? Where is the demeanor of a lady from a noble family?

Even if you don't call me sister-in-law, you shouldn't call me by my first name, right? "

As she spoke, Pei Jiuniang shook her sleeves.

Hearing this, the female students with Gu Pingting were secretly surprised.

Whispering, whispering.

Ask Gu Pingting by the way.

"She, she is Mrs. Pei... Marquis?"

"I just saw where the carriage stopped. Could she have heard everything?"

As he said this, he secretly glanced at Pei Jiuniang's pretty yet angry face.

Gu Pingting was also slightly surprised.

She suddenly realized that after not seeing her for five years, Pei Jiuniang had become younger and her demeanor had become more graceful and elegant.

After all, based on his understanding of her mother Liu, and her mischievous elder sister Gu Lanzhi, how could they possibly let Pei Jiuniang have an easy time?

Besides, my brother hasn’t been back for five years.

Shouldn't Pei Jiuniang be filled with resentment and feel aggrieved, and be tortured beyond recognition?

She remembered that her mother wrote to her saying that she had given her the account book and the housekeeper's key before she was out of confinement.

She knew very well what the Marquis' Mansion looked like.

When she wanted to go to school, she had no money, so her mother discussed with her and asked her to go to Pei Jiuniang to cry to her mother.

Before insisting on my brother marrying her, my mother had already found out that Pei Jiuniang had the dowry left by her grandfather. Although Pei Jiuniang came from a scholarly family, she was good at managing household affairs. She revived several shops that were about to go bankrupt in just a few months.

Her mother told her that if she married Pei Jiuniang, she would be able to earn some money in the mansion and have enough dowry when she got married.

But neither her mother nor her elder sister Gu Lanzhi liked her.

Now Sister Wen Rong earns more money than her, and she no longer wants her to be her sister-in-law.

Anyway, she always felt that as long as Pei Jiuniang continued to stay in the Marquis' Mansion, someone would always look down on her.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but reply, "I heard it, and I didn't say anything wrong. She dared to do it, but she doesn't dare to let me say it?!"

As she spoke, she tried to raise her chin, looking like she was not afraid, and stared at Pei Jiuniang.

Several of my classmates originally thought that it was not good to talk about others behind their backs and have others hear them in person.

Seeing that Gu Pingting didn't show any fear at all, he felt relieved.

Yes, she dared to do it, so there was nothing they couldn't say.

Pei Jiuniang saw Gu Pingting and several of her female classmates staring at her with contempt, so she calmly tucked the loose hair from her temples behind her ears.

Such a natural action, but in Gu Pingting's eyes, she gnashed her teeth and cursed, "Fox charmer."

Pei Jiuniang couldn't help but sneer, looking up at Gu Pingting, "Fox charmer? You're flattering me? I become a fox charmer just by tucking my hair? Then Pingting, what's the point of you secretly writing love letters to others?"

"You, what nonsense are you talking about?!"

Gu Pingting was immediately furious. Seeing several classmates looking at her with suspicion, she became even more furious. She pointed at Pei Jiuniang and said angrily, "You are just furious because I exposed you. Why, you did it, and I can't say anything?"

"Oh, then we have to have a good talk. What did I do to make you, Pingting, gossip about me and ruin my reputation in front of the Marquis's mansion?"

Pei Jiuniang said this, her eyes lightly sweeping over the other people present.

The person who was swept suddenly felt a little unhappy and subconsciously took a few steps back.

But in Gu Pingting's eyes, they didn't believe it.

She suddenly became more anxious.

"Okay, you are shameless, then let's talk it out. Pei Jiuniang, don't think that because I'm not in the capital, I don't know how you pissed off mother. Mother was pissed off by you and she became sick. You disrespected your mother-in-law and made her sick. What? Do you admit it?"

Gu Pingting is full of confidence.

After all, she knew her mother very well.

My mother must have announced it to others a long time ago.

She never doubted her mother's methods.

Moreover, her mother had written to her less frequently recently, and she began to wonder if her mother was really ill.

No matter what, it was her fault that her mother died.

"My mother-in-law is ill? Did she write to you and tell you about it? She said that I made her ill?"

Pei Jiuniang showed no sign of fear.

Gu Pingting was a little confused. Logically, shouldn't she be nervous and try to please her and not let her continue speaking?

But she would not show her weakness at this time.

"What do you think? What did you do? Don't you know it? Do you think that just because I'm not in the capital, you can bully my mother?"

Gu Pingting was full of righteousness and seemed to really want to stand up for her mother.

"That's really strange. As far as I know, mother hasn't written to you in the past six months. I told her to send you money every month. Could it be that it was written on the banknote I gave you?"

After these words were spoken, Gu Pingting's face became a little embarrassed.

Especially when her classmates looked at her curiously, she became even more angry and said, "You, what nonsense are you talking about?!"
