The fate was changed, the mistress of the Hou family was slapped in the face and made money to win

Jiang Zhitong and Zheng fell in love at first sight and have had a very good relationship for many years. When he saw Zheng waiting at the door, he smiled and walked quickly forward.

"Madam, I'm back!"

Seeing Zheng staring at Gu Suining, Jiang Zhitong hurriedly introduced him.

"Madam, this is Suining." Then he lowered his voice and added, "She is Brother Gu's eldest daughter."

Then he turned to Gu Suining and said, "Suining, come and see mother."

Gu Suining took two steps forward and bowed to Zheng politely, "My daughter greets my mother."

"Hurry up, hurry up." Zheng came back to her senses, stepped forward with a smile on her face and helped Gu Suining up, "My dear child, I didn't expect you to be so beautiful. I remember your father was so handsome..."

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Zhitong coughed quickly. Zheng then realized that she had said something wrong. She looked at Gu Suining apologetically and whispered.

"Sui Ning, I'm sorry, sometimes I don't think before I speak."

The Gu family had just encountered an accident not long ago, and the child must still be very sad. I am really bringing up things that are out of context.

Gu Suining looked at the genuine apology in Zheng's eyes and smiled knowingly.

"It's all right, Mother."

After that, he added in a low voice, "When my father was alive, he always said that I looked more like my mother."

Although her mother died during childbirth, she never got to see her.

Hearing this relaxed tone, Zheng's embarrassment and helplessness were relieved a lot. She took Gu Suining's hand and said, "Although I have no chance to meet her, your mother must be a great beauty."

Of course, Zheng said this not because Gu Suining's father, Gu Qingyan, was so ugly. In fact, he had thick eyebrows and phoenix eyes, and his appearance was also excellent.

It's just a pity that his facial features look overly resolute, with an air of determination that could be stuck to a door to ward off evil spirits.

If a man had this kind of look on his face, he could barely be described as being righteous, but if a woman had this kind of look on her face, it would be a bit too rigid.

All the way into the mansion, Zheng kept looking at Gu Suining, and the more she looked, the more satisfied she became.

She has willow-shaped eyebrows, almond-shaped eyes, and skin as white as snow, but she is not the delicate and pretty type of a girl next door. Her eyebrows and eyes are relaxed, her posture is calm, and her excellent appearance reveals a bit of nobility that is not easily surprised by fame or disgrace.

Zheng was born into a merchant family and was not very good at writing. Later, she married into the Jiang family. Because of the Jiang family's wealth, she was able to meet some officials and noble ladies. However, regardless of their age, those people had a sense of superiority in front of her, which made her very unhappy.

Looking at Gu Suining again, although he exuded nobility, she did not feel uncomfortable at all. This temperament seemed to have been immersed in it for many years and came from the bones, soft and appropriate. She liked him at first sight.

It's just... a little too thin.

"You must have suffered a lot during this period." Zheng frowned with a bit of pity, and then said, "But it's okay now. Since you are here, no, since you are back home, I will definitely give you more nourishment."

Hearing Zheng's simple but sincere words, Gu Suining felt a warm current in his heart and said thank you obediently, "Thank you, mother."

Jiang Zhitong added, "Madam, there are also clothes and jewelry. I don't know much about these. You can take Sui Ning with you to pick them out. This child is thinking about you waiting at home, and she is afraid of being delayed on the way. I asked her to take her to buy clothes, but she refused to go. She just wanted me to come back to see you as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Zheng, who already had a good impression of Gu Suining, became even more satisfied with her.

"Good child, our Jiang family is not short of money. From now on, you can buy whatever jewelry and clothes you like! I have also prepared some in advance. They seem to be suitable for your size, but I don't know if the styles are to your liking. Go and have a look later. After you have rested well, mother will take you to the street to choose carefully."

Gu Suining did not hesitate to refuse, and replied with a smile, "Okay, thank you mother for your concern."

As they were talking, several people walked into the hall. The food was already prepared on the table. Jiang Zhitong looked around and realized that his son was not there.

"Madam, where is Mu Shi?"

"Don't mention it. During the time you were away, that brat was left unattended and had a blast. I told him you would be home today, but he ended up playing outside and hasn't come back yet. I don't know where he went." Zheng felt a headache when she mentioned her son.

"That brat!" Jiang Zhitong couldn't help but curse, and then looked at Gu Suining, "Suining, let's not wait for him, let's go eat first, and when he comes back, your father will introduce you to each other."

"I don't want any sister. Even if you introduce me to someone else, I won't acknowledge you!"

A voice with a hint of humming came from behind them, and Jiang Mushi, dressed in a purple brocade robe, strode in.

Gu Suining turned his head and looked. Jiang Mushi was ten years old this year. Although he was still a bit childish, he had a handsome face and one could already tell that he would have a good appearance in the future.

Jiang Mushi also raised his head slightly and looked at her. When he saw Gu Suining's appearance clearly, he was stunned for a moment, but soon he continued to speak with a stern face.

"You are the daughter of the Gu family. I tell you, I don't want any sister!" After a pause, he added, "Even if she is a pretty sister, I don't want her!"

"What are you talking about, you little brat!" Jiang Zhitong immediately frowned and scolded, then turned to Gu Suining and said, "Suining, don't mind it, ignore this little brat."

Gu Suining shook his head, "Father, it's okay. After all, it's the first time we meet, so it's normal for brother Mu Shi to find it hard to accept."

"Who is your brother?" Jiang Mushi snorted again.

Jiang Zhitong's expression, which had just softened a little because of Gu Suining's words, suddenly darkened again.

"You little brat, it seems that you haven't been disciplined enough in your daily life. You have become more and more unruly. The meal tonight is prepared for your father and your sister. If you refuse to call me sister, then don't eat."

"If you don't want to eat, then don't eat. I won't eat with her!" Jiang Mushi glared at Gu Suining, turned around and ran out.

"Mu Shi!" Zheng frowned and wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by Jiang Zhitong.

"Madam, let's eat. It doesn't matter if that brat doesn't want to eat. He won't starve to death anyway." Jiang Zhitong gestured to Zheng to sit down, and then gestured to Gu Suining to sit down and eat as well.

Although Zheng was somewhat reluctant, she thought about her son's attitude just now and finally did not care about it anymore.

Zheng and Jiang Zhitong were afraid that Gu Suining would feel restrained, so they prepared chopsticks for her to pick up food. During the meal, the two did not stop until Gu Suining smiled bitterly and said that she really couldn't eat anymore.

After the meal, Zheng personally accompanied Gu Suining to the prepared room.

But soon after walking out of the hall, Gu Suining stopped and said, "Mother, let the servants lead the way. You can go and see brother Mu Shi."

"Don't worry about that brat. I'll go with you. If there's anything inappropriate, just get someone to replace him."

Even so, Zheng still showed some worry in her eyes. That brat ran away in the morning, and I don’t know if he had lunch or not. Now he’s hungry again at night…

"Mother, if there is anything inappropriate, I will let someone tell you. Brother Mu Shi is young, don't starve yourself."

Zheng looked at Gu Suining and saw that her smile was sincere and did not seem to be just being polite, so she did not insist.

"Good boy, let Biyun go with you. She will stay with you from now on. If there is anything missing or inappropriate, you don't have to wait until tomorrow to send someone to tell me immediately."

A maid behind Zheng who looked about fourteen or fifteen years old immediately bowed to Gu Suining and said, "Biyun greets the young lady."

After Zheng left, Biyun led Gu Suining through the back garden to the west courtyard.

But it didn't take long before Gu Suining discovered a figure squatting next to a rock not far away.

Looking again, it turned out to be Jiang Mushi.

Gu Suining stopped, and Biyun, who was following behind her, also noticed Jiang Mushi.

"Master, why are you here?"

When he turned around and saw Gu Suining, Jiang Mushi stood up instantly as if his tail had been stepped on.
