Quick Wear: The Enchanting Concubine, Rules of Survival and Plunder
Chapter 1074 The Unfaithful Lover 2
"Shut up," Jiang Chunxi scolded. "Knowing our situation in the Gu family, you still speak so carelessly outside. That girl is clearly my cousin's honored guest. How could a maid like you make up such things?"
Changli quickly looked around, then patted her chest and said in a wronged voice, "This servant is just feeling indignant on behalf of Miss. It's one thing for the eldest young master to bring other women back, but how can he let other women humiliate you like that?"
"Miss, I feel like the young master has changed." Changli asked with a worried expression. "I see that the young master is acting strangely towards that girl! Do you think he might have fallen out of love? If he has, what should you do?"
As the original owner's personal maid, Changli naturally knew about the original owner and Gu Yanjin's affair, which is why Changli was so worried.
In the original owner's previous life, the original owner had just been so angry with Yan Jialuo that she cried. Not only did she get a scolding from Gu Yanjin, but Gu Yanjin also forced her to apologize to Yan Jialuo.
"Just do what needs to be done!" Jiang Chunxi sneered. "Men have always been fickle. If Gu Yanjin wants to change his mind, what can I do? Fortunately, we kept our relationship a secret very well. The entire Gu family doesn't know about us."
"It was Gu Yanjin who wronged me first, so I suppose he doesn't want to publicize what happened between us. Therefore, I don't need to worry about my reputation being damaged."
"Let's go!" Jiang Chunxi stopped the topic. "Let's hurry and pay our respects to our aunt."
Jiang Chunxi had just transmigrated, and the original owner was on her way to pay her respects to her aunt. The courtyard where Madam Gu lived was close to the Gu family garden, and the original owner met Gu Yanjin and Yan Jialuo when she passed by the garden.
Oh! Right, the current time is just two days after Gu Yanjin and Yan Jialuo returned to the capital.
Ever since Gu Yanjin returned, the original owner had been eagerly anticipating seeing him, anxiously waiting for him to secretly visit her. However, two days passed without Gu Yanjin coming to see her, and even more unexpectedly, the situation she encountered when she finally met him was quite different.
Therefore, in the original owner's previous life, today was a huge blow to the original owner. Gu Yanjin's behavior was so obvious, how could the original owner not see that he had changed his mind?
Meanwhile, in Madam Gu's courtyard...
"Madam, drink your medicine!" Granny Bai said with a stern face, showing no respect for her mistress whatsoever, and ordered Madam Gu to drink her medicine in a cold and disdainful tone.
As soon as Granny Bai finished speaking, the maid behind her immediately brought up the medicine.
Madam Gu said nothing, picked up the bowl, and drank the medicine in one gulp.
"Aunt, are you sick?" Jiang Chunxi walked in at this moment, looking at Madam Gu who was drinking medicine with a face full of doubt and worry. "Weren't you fine yesterday? How come you're sick today?"
“Miss, Madam is drinking a contraceptive.” Granny Bai said with a disdainful look, and left with the maid who brought the medicine under the embarrassed and pale gaze of Madam Gu.
Jiang Chunxi's eyes immediately reddened. She sat down next to Madam Gu, took Madam Gu's hand, and asked with teary eyes, "Aunt, why is this happening? Why are you taking contraceptive medicine? Does the Gu family forbid you from having a child?"
"No wonder, no wonder your aunt has been unable to conceive all these years. It turns out that the Gu family simply does not allow you to have a child."
In the original owner's previous life, at this time, the original owner did not come to pay respects to Madam Gu, but ran back to her own courtyard crying, so she did not know about Madam Gu taking the contraceptive medicine.
As for why the original owner never discovered that Madam Gu was taking contraceptives, it was naturally due to Madam Gu's good intentions. She deliberately kept it from her niece. Whenever her father stayed at her place, she would send someone to inform her niece the next day, asking her to come over later. That's why the original owner never discovered that her aunt was taking contraceptives.
The fact that Jiang Chunxi happened to run into this today was purely coincidental. Because Granny Bai was delayed by other matters in the morning, the medicine was delivered a little late, and Jiang Chunxi just happened to run into her.
"Good child, stop crying," Gu's mother wiped away her niece's tears and forced a gentle smile to comfort her. "Not having children is also a good thing. After all, childbirth is like walking through the gates of hell for a woman, so not having to go through the pain of childbirth is actually a good thing for your aunt."
"Besides, given Aunt's situation in the Gu family, even if she were allowed to give birth, it might not be a good thing. It's one thing for Aunt to be looked down upon in the Gu family, but she doesn't want her child to suffer the same contempt and disdain."
Madam Gu married her father with high hopes, but on their wedding night, her father, drunk, held her and called out another woman's name. Madam Gu was struck dumb, and the blow she suffered was unimaginable.
What she didn't expect was that on her first day of marriage, after paying her respects to the elders of the Gu family and returning to her own courtyard, Granny Bai, just like before, brought her a contraceptive medicine with a maid and waited for her to drink it.
Granny Bai said that this was the intention of Old Madam Gu and her father, in order to prevent her from becoming too ambitious after having a child and developing the idea of harming the two children left behind by the legitimate wife. That's why they didn't allow her to give birth to the child.
In short, after marrying into the Gu family, Madam Gu seemed to have fallen into a dark abyss, making every day of her life a painful ordeal. However, for the sake of the family, she had no choice but to endure this torment, and even suicide was a luxury.
But what Madam Gu didn't expect was that the Jiang family still had the delusion that their daughters could marry into higher social classes, and they even sent their seven-year-old niece to the capital.
Madam Gu naturally replied and refused. She was already trapped in the abyss of the Gu family mansion, so how could she bear to let her niece come to this cage and suffer all kinds of contempt?
To Madam Gu's surprise, even after she had written a letter of refusal, the Jiang family still sent their niece to the capital.
It is worth mentioning that although the original owner was the legitimate daughter of the Jiang family, she was not very favored at home. Her biological mother gave all her maternal love to her son and did not pay any attention to her daughter.
That's why she treated her aunt, who doted on her, like her own mother, placing her in the most important place in her heart, even more so than Gu Yanjin.
That's why it's said that even without Yan Jialuo's torment, the original owner wouldn't have lived long. After all, the death of the most important family member in her heart was a fatal blow to the original owner.
“Aunt,” Jiang Chunxi hugged Madam Gu, “I know you have suffered a lot in the Gu family, but I never thought that what I saw was only the tip of the iceberg. Your life in the Gu family was not just suffering, it would not be an exaggeration to say that you lived in hell.”
