Chapter 539: Dark Childhood Stories Are Not Lack of Cinderella (4)
The dual personality within the original owner's body, although they often quarreled, both believed in their hearts that the other was their closest sister.
Even her biological mother, Catherine, thought she had two lovely daughters.
Anna and Sophie had a good agreement that each of them would have the right to use the body for one day.
Today it's Anna's turn.
Sophie huddled in, confused; she had heard everything that had just been said, but had not understood it.
"Anna, who is he? Ella, the prince, the witch queen? Tell me quickly, or I'll tell Mom everything!" Sophie kept chattering like a noisy crow.
Anna Zhen automatically ignored it and smiled. From today on, Sophie could only exist in her mind and she would never be able to control this body again.
"Dear Sophie, if you are bored in the future, you can chat with our third sister." She found that Sophie could hear the voice of the system, so it was a good opportunity to let these two useless guys communicate among themselves.
system:【......】
Sophie was really interested and kept talking to the system in her mind. She enjoyed it even though she got no response.
Gu Zhen walked to the closet, and among the sea of bright red and bright green, she couldn't pick out a dress suitable for the occasion.
This room was originally Ella's room. The original owner immediately occupied it after the Duke's stepfather went out. She threw all of Ella's dresses into the box and refused to let Ella wear these beautiful dresses. She only let her dress like a maid.
Gu Zhen rummaged through Ella's clothes and found a light blue dress without a crinoline. She put it on with the most suitable looseness, removed her makeup and hair accessories, and dressed up simply and elegantly before slowly walking out.
As soon as she appeared on the spiral staircase, everyone standing in the living room looked over. It was the first time that Gu Zhen saw so many medieval foreigners, and she suddenly became a little face-blind.
However, they soon locked onto the original owner's mother, Catherine.
She is so beautiful, just like the stepmothers in all fairy tales. Although she looks a little mean and dull, there is no doubt that her aura and looks make her a complete queen.
Gu Zhen nodded slightly at her and walked down the stairs. Since everyone was a villain, then let's put morality aside.
Catherine loved her daughter very much. She went over and took her hand lovingly, and asked in a low voice: "Why aren't you wearing your favorite dress?"
Gu Zhen was so upset, this unconditional indulgence and pampering was really shameful. Is it possible to wear bright red and green without restraint in an occasion like a funeral?
But she was dressed very appropriately, in a dark blue velvet puffy skirt, which was low-key yet elegant. Her matching aesthetic was still on point, but I don't know why the "two" daughters went so far astray.
"Mom, I don't like green anymore. I look good in this, right?" Gu Zhen raised her chin slightly insolently. "There are so many beautiful dresses. I will try them all in the future!"
Catherine supported her daughter unconditionally, calling her her darling non-stop, and only when Gu Zhen could no longer bear it did she pull her into the living room.
In the living room, Ella was busy carrying a tray, her plain skirt fluttering in the wind. The guests who came to pay their respects liked the young lady of the Duke's family very much.
Compared with the beautiful but stupid mother and daughter, Miss Ella is indeed too kind and simple.
Ella enjoyed the admiring and pitying looks of the guests. On the one hand, she felt it was ridiculous but on the other hand, she enjoyed it. She put down the last glass of wine, held the tray in front of her, but when she turned around, she was suddenly stunned.
She almost didn't recognize who it was, dear Anna Sophie, had she changed her gender?
Still wearing her skirt.
There was interest in Ella's eyes. Gu Zhen looked at her. There was no longer the sarcasm, stupidity and arrogance that Ella was familiar with in her eyes. She was very calm, so calm that Ella felt that things seemed to be out of control.
How did her toys change?
Ella stood there with her head lowered and the tray in her arms. Her father's funeral was about to begin, and she still needed to hold back her tears.
Funerals in medieval Europe were full of religious meanings.
Reconcile with God, pray, bury, and memorialize to redeem the soul of the deceased and ensure that His Excellency the Duke can enter heaven.
Gu Zhen pursed her eyes with a handkerchief, and heard sobbing in her ears. Catherine was crying, but no one knew how happy she was in her heart.
Her first husband was a manor owner, and the family fortune he left behind was squandered by Catherine and her daughter. After meeting the Duke by chance, she immediately conquered him with her beauty.
Now that she is widowed again, Catherine is faced with wealth that is several times greater than the inheritance left by her first husband. Her mood can only be described as overflowing with joy.
Although widows were not well regarded in medieval Europe, Catherine did not care about her reputation at all.
She cried louder and put on a full-blown act, almost fainting at the funeral.
Gu Zhen supported her and saw from the corner of her eye that Ella was also crying. She stood there silently, all alone, her tears dripping like pearls, her brown hair shining in the sun. As expected of a princess in a fairy tale, Ella was so beautiful even when she cried.
The funeral ended peacefully. Ella was a little disappointed that she didn't hear people mocking her stepmother and stepsister.
She followed Catherine in seeing off the guests.
As soon as the guests left, Catherine's face changed immediately and she glared at Ella fiercely. This damn girl, she was busy running around and won the guests' praise, making her precious daughter seem so insignificant.
It's an eyesore.
Catherine sat on the gorgeous sofa and coldly asked Ella to serve tea and water.
"Rilla is moving to the attic tonight. Mom and sister have too many clothes, so they want to borrow your room. Dear Rilla will definitely understand mom, right?"
No matter how kindly Catherine smiled, she couldn't hide the viciousness in her eyes. Ella thought that the attic might be full of mice, and she could catch a few and throw them into their closet.
Those beautiful clothes are just sitting there anyway.
Catherine felt happy when she saw Ella's aggrieved and forbearing look. She picked up the teacup and took a sip gracefully, then spoke to Gu Zhen in a gentle tone again.
"My dear daughter, His Royal Highness the Prince will hold a ball in a few days, and your mother will make you the most beautiful girl in the world." By then, if she can win the heart of His Royal Highness the Prince, the mother and daughter will enjoy endless wealth and glory.
Gu Zhen knew that there was no way she could persuade Catherine to leave the city with her. Taking such a brainless mother with her, who knew what new troubles she would get into.
It would be better to just stay here, solve all the troubles, and then you can naturally survive smoothly.
Catherine was looking forward to the day when she would become the prince's mother. If she had not heard that the king had been seriously ill and unable to get up from bed, she would not mind competing for the position of queen.
Ella watched the mother and daughter dreaming coldly, but she was thinking in her heart how to avoid this dance.
After all, the prince's guards would patrol the area personally, and anyone who concealed information or made excuses for not coming would be hanged.
Ella touched her neck. She hadn't had enough fun yet and didn't want to die.
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard my stepsister's voice.
Gu Zhen smiled and glanced at the distracted Ella: "Dear Ella, go too. The dance will definitely be more interesting with you here."
