Chapter 111 This Little Bear Child

a little out of place. His room had been transformed into a girl's boudoir, a world apart from its former self. It gave him the uncanny feeling of having wandered into a teenage girl's bedroom by acc...Over there, Meng Jinyang and a few others arrived at the carriage.

Before Gu Jingxi could even ask her what she wanted to do, Meng Jin Yao asked, "Husband, after you are done with your duties, if there's nothing else pressing, then let's return home first"

Gu Jingxi was taken aback. Thinking of what his friend had said today, he couldn't help but think about it in a different way, and was a little surprised: "Madam, are you here to pick me up for my duty"

Meng Jiny Yao was taken aback. Where did Gu Jingxi need her to pick him up

For a moment, she shook her head hurriedly and explained, "No, it's our carriage that broke down. It just so happened to be close to the Dali Temple, and it was almost time for them to dismiss. I came over to see if my husband was also going back home, hoping for a little convenience."

Gu Jingxi replied softly, "I'm just heading back to the mansion. Why don't we go together"

Four master and servant rode in a carriage. Luckily, the carriage was big enough, or else it would have been crowded with four people.

Although Gu Jingxi was usually gentle, Qing Qiu and Ning Dong were still a little awkward sitting in the carriage with him for the first time. They sat stiffly, not daring to breathe out loud.

Two maidservants sat like wooden statues, and both Meng Jin Yao and Gu Jing Xi remained silent.

After a long silence, Gu Jingxi suddenly asked: "Where did Madam go today"

Meng Jinyao replied, "I went back to my maternal grandfather's house for a visit and took care of some things."

Her mother was an only child with no siblings. Her maternal grandparents had passed away, but the Zhou family residence was still standing, with several servants tending to the house. They were all elderly members of the Zhou family, either advanced in age, crippled, or missing a limb. They were all without other options and had nowhere else to go. Back then, her maternal grandfather had a kind heart and brought even those with disabilities back to the residence.

Upon hearing this, Gu Jingxi vaguely knew what she was planning to do, guessing it had something to do with your grandmother's son. He then asked, "Madam, is the person you found reliable"

Meng Jin Yao nodded, her voice firm: "Reliable ones, those who stayed are loyal servants. When my grandfather was seriously ill, he returned their contracts to them, and these few people didn't leave. They didn't even ask for wages and wanted to stay, so my grandfather gave them a sum of money to continue managing the house, as if it were their wages."

That's because the few remaining servants managed Zhou Mansion, regularly cleaning every room in the house. This prevented the deserted mansion from falling into disrepair and allowed her to occasionally return and enjoy a cup of hot tea and a warm meal when she visited.

Gu Jingxi nodded slightly: "It seems that Madam has a well-thought-out plan."

Meng Jin Yao smiled sweetly: "As soon as I woke up this morning, inspiration struck."

Qingqiu and Ningdong pricked up their ears, listening to their conversation. Thousands of waves surged in their hearts. It was only today that they suddenly learned that the death of the young master was suspicious, done by Sun's venomous woman. Before this, the previous mistress had never told them about it.

Not only them, but even the second young master is unaware of this.

Changxing Houfu.

Koi fish in the pond were all huddled together, vying to eat the fish food.

Meng Jin Yao stood by the pond, watching with interest. She scattered some fish food, and the koi, which had just dispersed a little, gathered again at the fastest speed.

"Ah!"

Suddenly, a scream came from not far away, attracting Meng Jinyu's attention. She followed the sound and saw Gu Xuanyi covering her forehead in pain, as did Li Wan'er. It seemed they had just turned the corner and hadn't seen anyone, colliding with each other forehead to forehead.

Gu Xiayi was pampered and spoiled since childhood. No one in the mansion dared to defy her.

She covered her forehead, her head buzzing. When she saw the other person's face, anger surged up in her, wave after wave. A lowly concubine dared to bump into her

She was so angry that she immediately raised her hand and slapped Li Wan'er across the face without any hesitation, using all her might. "Slap!" The sound echoed as she angrily shouted, "You blind bitch"

After Li Wan'er entered the household, though she wasn't favored by the elders, she had never been slapped. She was always held in Gu Xiuming's palm and pampered. This slap stunned her. Covering half her face that was numb with pain, she felt wronged and tears quickly welled up in her eyes. She choked back a sob and replied: "Miss, it was you who walked too fast and didn't look where you were going. You bumped into me."

Li Wan'er's maidservant, Jingjing, watched silently from the side. After all, this was the legitimate daughter of the main wife, and although her mistress enjoyed the favor of the prince, she was ultimately a concubine. In the entire household, apart from the prince, no one paid any attention to Li Yi.

Gu Xuyan glared at her angrily: "Are you saying I wasn't looking where I was going and hit you"

Li Wan'er hurriedly shook her head: "I dare not"

Gu Xuyan let out a cold snort: "You're still afraid After you bumped into me, what is there left to be afraid of"

She sized Li Wan'er up and down again, then covered her face with a sob. She looked pitiful, but somehow she reminded him of his father's concubines, always acting weak and helpless to gain men's pity. It was infuriating.

She sarcastically retorted, "I'm a concubine, not someone who cries all day and makes a spectacle of myself. I'm honored and respected, and you bumped into me, the one who is truly important, and haven't even cried! What are you crying about"

As soon as the words left his mouth, Li Wan'er's body trembled slightly. The tears she hadn't shed yet instantly flowed down her cheeks, and she choked back sobs, too afraid to speak.

Gu Xuanyi saw that she was still crying, feeling that it was intentional. When passersby saw this, they would think she had done something wrong to her. She was instantly angered and rebuked: "Are you addicted to crying People would think I hit you. All you concubines do all day is pretend to be pitiful and win men's pity. What else can you do"

"Third Brother is now under house arrest, you cry your eyes out and he won't even see it. I don't know what love potion you gave Third Brother to make him ignore such a dignified woman like Third Sister-in-Law and run away with you, someone so shameless."

Li Wan'er was stunned. Just a few days ago, she had been scolded by Gu Xiwen, the twin brother of Gu Xuanyi, for being shameless, and now she was scolded like this by Gu Xueling. It was hard not to suspect that Meng Jin Yao had instructed it.

She was also angry and laughed through tears: "Miss, even if I accidentally bumped into you, I would apologize to you. But there's no grudge between us, so why are you humiliating me like this If you want to get back at the mistress for the madam, then I have nothing to say. The mistress is Brother Xiu's mother, and no matter how she treats me, I should bear it.

Gu Xuanyi was taken aback and said angrily, "Who said I wanted to take revenge for Third Aunt I just can't stand you concubines crying all day. Don't think that because your brother dotes on you, you're someone special. Third Aunt would look down on a concubine so much she wouldn't even give her stepson's concubine a hard time."

As soon as Meng Jingyao stepped closer, she heard this sentence, quite surprised. She didn't expect Gu Xuanyi to speak for her, but judging by the meaning of the sentence, Li Waner probably said something that involved her. As for what she said, it definitely wasn't anything nice.

Last time I saw Gu Xuanyi bullying Gu Xuailing, her arrogant and domineering manner was so repulsive. This time, seeing her bully Li Wan'er, I inexplicably found it endearing.

It seems that whether or not it's annoying to see a child bully others depends on who is being bullied.

She opened her lips and said, "Xuan Yi, what's going on"r spine. If the person moved their hand even slightly, she would die instantly. She was so terrified that her face turned pale, and she didn't dare to move an inch. Her great revenge hadn't been enac...
