Chapter 1375: Gu Yundong Is Inconspicuous

Editor: Henyee Translations

The heir’s wife smiled and stood up. She looked at Gu Yundong with a puzzled expression. "This is..."

"This is my niece. Her husband’s surname is Shao. She heard that the plum blossoms in the Marquis Mansion are a scene in our capital and insisted on coming over to take a look. I brought her here to meet her. I hope you won’t take offense."

Although Madam Ge was only a few years older than Gu Yundong, Qin Anning addressed Gu Yundong as Elder Sister, and Gu Yunshu was Qin Wenzheng’s disciple, so the seniority could only be calculated like this.

"Of course I welcome you. I like people. My husband’s surname is Shao. Who knows, we might have been a family 500 years ago."

Gu Yundong pursed her lips and smiled meaningfully. Wasn’t that so? She had come exactly because they might be a family.

She followed suit and bowed. Then, the heir’s wife led them inside.

Before they got close, Gu Yundong saw a rose-red scenery in the distance. It was really beautiful, like a paradise.

It was indeed a scene in the capital. The plum blossom forest in the Marquis Huaiyin’s Mansion was indeed beautiful. Gu Yundong could not help but hold her breath.

Even Madam Ge was a little surprised.

Seeing them like this, the heiress couldn’t help but purse her lips and smile. "Let’s go. Standing far away now is the best. Being in the plum forest is another feeling."

"That’s right."

The few of them continued walking. Soon, they heard low voices and laughter.

It seemed that there were already many madams and young ladies in the plum forest.

When they saw Madam Ge coming over, a few people immediately stood up to welcome her.

After all, he was a popular person in front of the emperor. Even though there were many aristocratic families with statuses higher than Qin Wenzheng, they still smiled at Madam Ge and did not dare to underestimate her.

Gu Yundong held Qin Anning’s hand and stood quietly at the side. She listened to Madam Ge introduce her and then nodded slightly in greeting.

However, there were too many people. Not long after, the smile on Gu Yundong’s face could not hold on any longer.

She was not the only one. Anning, who was beside her, could not help but shake Gu Yundong’s hand a few times.

After finally walking to the pavilion and sitting down, the heir’s wife finally said, "Anning, do you want to go over there to play? The little girls are all over there. Do you want to join in the fun?"

Actually, Qin Anning did not want to go. She felt that they were not on the same side.

However, she was even more unwilling to stay here. Her mother and these madams and young ladies would definitely talk for a long time. She was too bored.

In any case, it was fine as long as she left this place. She did not have to play with those people.

Therefore, she nodded and looked at Madam Ge.

Madam Ge glanced at Gu Yundong. She knew that she had a motive for entering the Marquis Mansion. She could not sit here with her all the time.

Hence, she said to Gu Yundong, "Yundong, help me keep an eye on her. She’ll listen to you. Don’t let her go wild."

"Alright." Gu Yundong nodded obediently and bade farewell to the other madams and ladies. She then held Qin Anning’s hand and left.

In the eyes of many madams, Gu Yundong was not eye-catching. This married woman was probably just using Qin Wenzheng to see the world. Without her around, these people felt more at ease.

The maidservant quickly led Gu Yundong and Qin Anning to the other side of the forest.

When they were almost there, Gu Yundong saw seven or eight young girls laughing and playing. They were probably all under the age of ten.

Qin Anning was not willing to go over. She stood where she was and spoke to Gu Yundong.
