The abandoned wife married into a wealthy family, and the scumbag father wailed every night
Chapter 67: Being Beautiful Really Useful
Jiang Debao still had a smile on his face, as if he didn't notice Yang's guilty conscience.
When Yang heard the word "our family", she covered her mouth in shock at first, then felt something was wrong and quickly put her hand down.
Then he hurriedly welcomed Jiang Debao into the yard and brought a small stool. Jiang Debao sat down immediately without any disgust.
After all, the little eunuch was young and couldn't hide his expression.
As soon as he saw the tattered stool, he was disgusted. Just as he was about to get angry, he saw Jiang Debao sitting down and immediately shut his mouth.
He gritted his teeth and sat down with a smile on his face, but he was young after all, and the smile looked forced.
Gu Dechang had already sent his son to the Gu family's fields to look for someone. Old Lady Yin and Little Mrs. Gu also came out, looking at the people in the yard in confusion.
Little Gu secretly moved in front of her own father:
"Dad, what are they doing here?"
Gu Dechang took a look at his silly daughter and felt excited. His daughter is really lucky!
The reason why he was given the money was that he wanted to find a scholar for his daughter, but his daughter fell in love with that big fool Gu Yuze!
In fact, he has always felt a little regretful in his heart. After all, all other things are inferior except reading.
I didn't expect it! The Gu family actually had such great luck. My daughter is really going to enjoy the good fortune with them!
"It's a good thing anyway, don't say anything, just stay there quietly!"
Gu Dechang whispered some instructions to his little daughter and ignored her.
Little Gu didn't get what she wanted, so she gave her father a displeased look, but she still shrank away obediently.
There are so many distinguished people in the yard today, as a woman, she should not get involved!
Gu Xiucai quickly brought his sons back home and was surprised to see Jiang Debao!
Although he had the title of scholar, he had never seen a eunuch in the palace.
But because of the eunuch's special status, he no longer doubted Jiang Debao's identity at first sight and was shocked!
Could it be that Yingxue ran into that ungrateful guy Lin Zhixue?
Could it be that he is so connected that he sent people to execute his own family in broad daylight in front of so many villagers from Gujia Village without even asking any questions?
Gu Xiucai was worried, but he didn't show it on his face. Instead, he pretended to be calm and bowed to Jiang Debao:
"I am a scholar from the third year of the Deng School. I would like to ask if you have anything to ask of me, sir?"
Even if Jiang Debao intended to promote the Gu family, he was, after all, a trusted eunuch close to the emperor. After following the emperor for such a long time, it was inevitable that he would develop an aura of authority without even getting angry.
Seeing that Gu Xiucai was speaking so cautiously, he knew that when Gu Xiucai came back, he turned around and looked at Gu Xiucai. He was frightened by his lack of control over his aura, so he quickly smiled and said:
"I don't have any instructions. The emperor just ordered me to announce the decree. Now that everyone is here, kneel down and receive the decree!"
With the previous experience of Gu Yingxue and others being frightened and not kneeling to receive the imperial edict at the Yongchang Marquis Mansion, Jiang Debao deliberately raised the volume of the word "kneel"!
If the Gu family still does not kneel down to accept the imperial edict this time, even if the emperor will not blame them, he is afraid that the civil officials will criticize the Gu family when they find out!
These civil officials are the most difficult to deal with!
Although the Gu family members were shocked at what order the emperor was going to issue to them, they did not dare to hesitate at all and quickly knelt down to receive the order.
Jiang Debao cleared his throat, carefully unfolded the bright imperial edict in his hand, and read aloud:
"Follow the sky..."
After reading the imperial edict, Jiang Debao looked at the Gu family members who were still kneeling on the ground staring at him in a daze. He coughed at Gu Xiucai, signaling him to accept the edict quickly!
He still has to go back to the palace to report!
Gu Xiucai took the imperial edict with his hands in a daze. His mind was blank and he was still staring at the edict in his hands with a dull expression.
He had not recovered from his shock until Jiang Debao and his group had left.
"Eunuch, these country folk just don't know the rules. You've worked so hard to pass on the imperial edict to them, but you haven't even shown any appreciation!"
The young eunuch got on the carriage and spoke to Jiang Debao with a look of contempt.
"You are such a brainless fool! Her daughter has become a real marquis' wife, and she will be a noble lady among nobles in the future. Why are you still fussing about her reward of a few copper coins? Besides, Lord Xie is a very particular person, he will not owe you the reward! Just go back and wait!"
Jiang De leaned against the window of the carriage, staring at the scenery of the fields outside the window in a trance. If his elder sister had had the same experience back then, she would not have died so tragically.
But who in this world, throughout history, could have the same luck as Gu's daughter?
"Dad, what is a Marquis' wife?!"
Yang was shocked. Her sister-in-law had just gone to the capital to play for a few days, so how did she become the marquis's wife?
Old Lady Yin also looked at Mr. Gu with a bewildered expression; she didn't understand what the Marquis' wife was.
But she knew that her daughter would be a noble lady in the future!
With the imperial edict personally bestowed by the emperor, my daughter will have no worries in her life!
Old Lady Yin was strong all her life and never cried in front of others.
But now she no longer cared about the villagers who rushed into the yard and were looking at them curiously, and she just kept wiping her tears.
Crying so miserably!
"Old sister-in-law, why are you crying? Your Yingxue has made a name for herself, and the marriage was bestowed upon her by the Emperor. This is a great honor, you should be smiling!"
An old woman didn't understand why Old Lady Yin was crying and looked at her with confusion.
"Oh my God, I have always felt that your daughter is a very lucky person. She must be a very blessed person!"
The women in the village were talking about how extraordinary Gu Yingxue was, and they looked as if they had expected this day to come!
Xia Chunhua looked at the boxes in the yard with jealousy, her face twisted and distorted.
She had always been complacent about how she was luckier than Gu Yingxue. Even though Gu Yingxue had her father, brothers, mother and sister-in-law to protect her, how could she not be a widow!
Now the widow whom she had always looked down upon has become the marquis’ wife!
Although she didn't know what a marquis' wife was, she knew that Gu Yingxue would no longer have to go up the mountain to dig wild vegetables like the country women, nor would she have to drink wild vegetable porridge all day long.
She felt really bad!
Whenever she saw Gu Yingxue before, she would mutter in her heart: what’s the point of being pretty? She’s still a widow!
Now she realized that being beautiful really works!
"What's there to be proud of? Maybe the old marquis is going to die soon, so he should just marry a pretty girl and enjoy her for two days before she dies!"
Looking at the Gu family being flattered by the villagers, Xia Chunhua was so angry that she couldn't help but mutter to herself.
At this time, the Gu family's courtyard was very lively. Everyone was busy asking what a noble lady and a marquis' wife were. For a while, no one heard what Xia Chunhua said.
Xia Chunhua felt so depressed staying at Gu's house that she went back dejectedly.
