The mistress of the Hou family worked herself to death, and she did not serve after her rebirth

Seeing that Pei Jiuniang rarely smiled at him, Gu Yanzhi was delighted and hurried to please her, "Sister-in-law, mother is getting old and confused. As the saying goes, an elder sister-in-law is like a mother. Sister-in-law, I respect you very much in my heart. Don't worry, if any cat or dog wants to occupy the magpie's nest, I will be the first to disagree. This mansion belongs to my elder brother, and it will belong to Brother Yu in the future. I won't fight for it. I only ask you to love me and give me a bite to eat. I also hope that you can love me. Don't forget me when you go back to your mother's house. If there is a good girl, don't forget me."

Although Gu Yanzhi was a bastard, he knew very well in his heart that his mother was just as helpless as he was. Besides, his mother was old and could only live for a few more years. He could only live a good life by pleasing his elder sister-in-law and elder brother.

If the wife he marries in the future is from the Pei family, he will naturally have a closer relationship with the eldest sister-in-law, and the eldest sister-in-law will definitely not treat him unfairly.

He also really valued the abilities of his eldest sister-in-law, Mrs. Pei. No matter how bad he was, he knew that life in the Marquis' Mansion really got better after Mrs. Pei got married.

He also heard that his eldest sister-in-law had a falling out with his eldest sister and forced her to pay back the money she had spent. He spent as much as his eldest sister and had no money to pay her back, so he had to be even more careful in currying favor with Pei.

He felt that his eldest sister-in-law was not a stingy person. It must be his eldest sister Gu Lanzhi who was taking advantage of others and saying unpleasant things. He was not a fool like Gu Lanzhi. He had relied on his sweet words to make Liu put him in her heart since he was a child.

Even his elder brother Gu Tingzhi was very nice to him.

Well, he is a flatterer.

In the past, he relied on Liu, but now Liu is old and useless, and mainly because she is confused. He has to find a more reliable supporter.

Thinking of this, he gave Pei another flattering smile.

Don't hit a smiling person. Pei didn't want to be on bad terms with Gu Yanzhi, so seeing him showing goodwill frequently, she nodded and smiled back.

Gu Yanzhi was happy, knowing that his hard work was not in vain after all. Thinking about it, he rolled his eyes and said again.

"Mother, I advise you not to be stubborn anymore. You are no longer the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion. You are old and your brain is not working well. You should just stay calm and enjoy your old age.

You always look down on your elder sister-in-law and brother Yu, and you also dislike your elder brother. You always think about picking on your elder sister-in-law and brother Yu and trying to replace your elder brother's wife. You never think about the fact that the good life of our mansion today depends on your elder brother and sister-in-law.

In the past, you always thought that if my elder brother couldn't come back alive, you would let me inherit the title. I told you that I knew my own weight, but when I didn't listen, you found two strangers. No matter how obedient the strangers were, they could be my biological children. You always say that my elder brother is cold-hearted and has no feelings for you, but I think my elder brother still respects you, so stop making trouble."

"You evil creature, you are talking nonsense, I didn't..."

Liu felt as if she was struck by lightning. Could she say these words in front of Pei Jiuniang and Gu Tingzhi?

How could she give birth to such an evil creature?

I wish I could strangle you to death?!

She didn't dare to look at Gu Tingzhi, but she still saw that Gu Tingzhi's face looked very ugly.

He looks exactly like his biological father, the Marquis.

"Why didn't you tell me? You've been telling me since we were little that my elder brother was brought up by our grandmother and wasn't as close to you as I am. You've also been conspiring with your maids to let me inherit the title. I really thought about it before, but later I realized that you weren't doing it for my own good. You were trying to hurt me."

"I, I hurt you?"

Liu looked at her most beloved youngest son in disbelief, her eyes almost popping out of her head.

"Don't you know what kind of person I am? How much do I weigh? Can I support such a large mansion?

If you are not harming me, what are you doing? "

What Gu Yanzhi said was sincere. He watched Gu Tingzhi get married for five years before returning. He also heard that Gu Tingzhi had a life-and-death experience in the frontier and suffered countless injuries. He did not dare and did not want to live that kind of life.

As for his future wife, he didn't want her to be like Pei, who went through many dangerous times to give birth to a child and was forced to take care of household chores, and no matter how careful and hard she worked, she was still not satisfied with others.

He just wants to marry a good woman and live a happy life together.

"I…"

Liu covered her chest, feeling hateful, angry and powerless.

She planned all this for him, but he exposed her past and accused her of harming him, making her lose face in public.

Do evil.

However, Gu Yanzhi seemed not to notice her sadness and turned to please Pei Jiuniang and Gu Yu. He could see that his elder brother Gu Tingzhi cared about them and their son.

"By the way, sister-in-law, I heard that the Wang family wanted to invite Brother Yu to study at the Wang family, and Gu Lanzhi wanted to get a spot to send Brother Zhou there? But she was chased away by sister-in-law? It's so satisfying? Sister-in-law, you don't know that the Wang family obviously has no power, but they are arrogant. When I was in school, they often flattered the powerful and looked down on us, and ridiculed us for being born in the mud. Bah, our marquis' title was earned by our ancestors with real swords and guns. Our brother Yu has surpassed the Wang family, so does he still need them to teach him?

Now His Majesty is suspicious that the Wang family is forming a clique for personal gain. They are anxious and want to ease the relationship with our Marquis' Mansion. We will not use them as a pawn."

Although Gu Yanzhi was a second-generation rich kid, he usually made friends with children from prominent families. He learned a lot from them and knew a lot about things.

However, it was the first time that Pei Jiuniang heard his analysis, and she was really surprised.

"Sister-in-law, I remember that you were well educated. You were taught by your grandfather himself. Your grandfather was the Imperial Tutor, the Prince's Tutor, and the mentor of the current emperor. So, you and the emperor are from the same school. I think it would be better for you to teach Brother Yu by yourself, and there is no need for them to bother with the Wang family.

Sister-in-law, why don’t you open a school and I will be your teacher then?

I heard that some people outside have advocated accepting female students. Sister-in-law, you should also accept female students. It would be best if boys and girls can study together... That would be perfect."

Gu Yanzhi said this, his tone full of yearning.

He heard about this from his good friend, the young master of Ningyang Marquis's mansion. These days, whenever he closed his eyes, he would think, wouldn't life be wonderful if he could see female students in front of him every day?

But the old stubborn people in the Wang family have always advocated that women’s virtue lies in their lack of talent, and they think that if women also study and take exams, the world will be in chaos.

Who is in charge of the inner house?

Pooh.

Some old fashioned.

Liu, who was originally angry at Gu Yanzhi for not fighting back and being stupid, was shocked again when she heard that Gu Yanzhi was so bold as to discuss current affairs, and hurriedly stepped forward to cover Gu Yanzhi's mouth.

"Rebellious son, you really think I have a long life and want to piss me off to death. These are the words you can say. Have you forgotten why the princess was impeached and left the capital..."

"Mother, this is all old news. I tell you, now..."

"Snapped!"

Seeing that he was still trying to obey, Liu was frightened. Seeing that she couldn't cover his mouth, she slapped him directly.

Gu Yanzhi was also stunned. Although he was annoyed, he also knew that he had indeed taken advantage of the alcohol and said things he shouldn't have said. He shut his mouth in dismay.

Seeing this, Liu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But when she carefully thought about what Gu Yanzhi had just said, she was shocked again, and then became furious.

He pointed at Pei Jiuniang with a trembling finger, "You refused to enter the Wang Family School? Pei Jiuniang? Why are you so ungrateful? That's the Wang Family School?"

As he spoke, he suddenly thought of something and his eyes widened, seeming to be even angrier. "I was wondering why I encountered obstacles everywhere when I arranged for Xijue to enroll. It turns out that you offended someone. Pei Jiuniang, you are so good. You are so ungrateful and you have implicated the entire Gu family.

Go and get your place back. Your brother Yu won't go, and you look down on him, so give it to Xijue. I tell you, Xijue has a promising future, and will honor you in the future."

The more Liu thought about it, the angrier she became. Recently, in order to help Gu Xijue get into school, she had been begging people a lot. As an old lady in the Marquis's Mansion, she couldn't remember how long it had been since she had begged people like this. But people always said that her Marquis's Mansion was too big and they couldn't accommodate everyone. She had never figured out the meaning behind these words. It turned out that it was Pei who had done something wrong and angered others, which made her suffer in vain.

That’s all.

The Wang family's school of thought has been passed down for hundreds of years. Those who join the school will all become great scholars.

Pei Jiuniang actually hid such a good opportunity from her and didn't let her know.

And refused.

When will it be her turn to be in charge of this mansion?

Thinking about it, she said in a serious tone, raising her voice, "Pei, you have three days to get the quota back for Xijue. I can still forgive you and not care about it..."

"What are you not fussing about?" Pei Jiuniang chuckled, blocking her words. Facing her angry eyes, she smiled, "Mother, my second brother said you were confused. I thought he was wrong, but now I see you are really confused."

"You, you dare..."

"Why not? Didn't mother threaten us with kicking us out of the house, or waiting for the Marquis to come back and punish us? But the Marquis is here, mother can just say whatever she wants..."

"I…"

Liu was a little confused. She had indeed used these things to threaten Pei in the past five years. But she was clearly afraid before. Why?

Oh, she remembered, because Gu Tingzhi was now fascinated by her and didn't listen to her as a mother at all.

Not only Gu Tingzhi, but even his beloved youngest son Gu Yanzhi was bewitched by Pei Jiuniang and actually went against his mother.

Thinking of this, Liu slid to the ground, spread her hands, and cried, "My Lord, open your eyes. My unfilial descendants are going to piss me off to death. I have devoted myself to the Marquis's Mansion, but now I am neither a human nor a human being...

I think I'll go find you..."

As she spoke, Liu glanced at the pillar next to Gu Tingzhi, thought for a moment, and was about to rush over.
