Marrying for someone else and being a widow? Stepmothers open classes to raise children

Gu Zhiyi patted Wu Jingying's hand gently, a complex emotion flashed in her eyes, and she said slowly: "Jingying, it's not important to pursue these things now. You are pregnant now, the most important thing is to take care of yourself."

Wu Jingying bit her lip tightly, a trace of unwillingness flashed in her eyes, but she also knew that her mother was telling the truth. She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

Gu Zhiyi looked at the scenery outside the window, but her mind was thinking of her past life. At that time, Wu Jingying was divorced because of Aunt Li's frame-up, and she regretted it deeply. She recalled that stormy night, when Wu Jingying looked at her helplessly, with despair in her eyes.

"Mother, I really can't accept this!" Wu Jingying's voice broke Gu Zhiyi's memories.

Gu Zhiyi came back to her senses and said softly, "I know, Jingying, you have to believe me, I will protect you."

Wu Jingying looked at her mother's determined eyes, and a warm feeling surged in her heart. She nodded and said, "Mother, I know you will protect me. But Aunt Li's methods are too cunning, and I am really worried."

Gu Zhiyi smiled slightly and said, "Jingying, don't worry, I already have a plan to deal with it. But now is not the right time. You just need to take care of the baby and leave the rest to me."

Wu Jingying looked at her mother worriedly and said, "Mother, can you tell me your plan? I want to know how you will deal with Aunt Li."

Gu Zhiyi patted Wu Jingying's hand gently and said, "Jingying, this plan involves many things in the mansion. I can't tell you now. But you have to believe that I will make Aunt Li pay the price."

Wu Jingying felt a little relieved after hearing this. She knew her mother was a very smart person, and since she had a plan, Aunt Li's life would definitely not be easy.

In the following days, Wu Jingying rested and took care of her pregnancy under the care of her mother. Gu Zhiyi was secretly planning everything. She wanted to let Aunt Li know that she could no longer act recklessly in this life.

"You have to be careful about the baby in your belly." Gu Zhiyi said to the pregnant Wu Jingying, frowning slightly, showing concern.

Wu Jingying sat on the stone bench in the pavilion, gently stroking her belly with both hands, a blush on her face. She looked up at Gu Zhiyi and smiled, "Mother, I know. I will take good care of myself."

Gu Zhiyi sighed softly and said, "I was just joking. If you hurt the child because of your anger, I will never forgive you. In fact, I don't want to scare you, I just hope you can control your temper."

When Wu Jingying heard this, the smile on her face gradually disappeared. She lowered her head and remained silent for a while, then raised her head and said sincerely: "Mom, I know that I am sometimes too direct in my words and actions, and even hurt other people's feelings. I will try my best to correct it."

Gu Zhiyi looked at Wu Jingying's expression and couldn't help but feel deeply moved. She gently patted Wu Jingying's hand and said, "Jingying, do you know? A kind word can warm you through the winter, but an evil word can hurt you through the summer. I hope you can understand other people's feelings and stop hurting them."

The atmosphere in the pavilion of the Ningguo Mansion was a little heavy at the moment. Gu Zhiyi looked at Wu Jingying with mixed feelings. She knew that Wu Jingying was a smart woman, but sometimes her overly straightforward personality would offend people.

Gu Zhiyi sat back on the stone bench and said slowly: "Jingying, you know what? When I was young, I was also like you, outspoken. But as time passed, I gradually realized that the weight of words is much heavier than we think. Especially for the harmony of a family, it is even more important."

Wu Jingying nodded gently, with a flash of respect in her eyes: “Mother, I understand. I will remember your words and pay more attention in the future.”

Gu Zhiyi looked at Wu Jingying with expectation in her eyes. She hoped that Wu Jingying could truly understand what she said.

"Mom, you are right. I will try my best to control my emotions in the future and never let my words hurt others." Wu Jingying said sincerely.

Gu Zhiyi smiled slightly, her eyes full of relief: "Okay, I believe you. But you have to remember that changing your personality is not something that can be done overnight. It requires a long period of practice. In this process, if you have any confusion or difficulties, you can come to me."

A trace of gratitude flashed in Wu Jingying's eyes. She knew that Gu Zhiyi really cared about her and hoped that she could become a better person.

Gu Zhiyi poured hot tea and pushed it in front of Wu Jingying, her eyes full of concern and expectation: "Tell me what you think of Aunt Li."

Wu Jingying's eyes suddenly became sharp. She held the teacup tightly, as if trying to control her emotions. She took a deep breath and said, "Madam, Aunt Li...she deliberately framed me. She wanted to kill me and my child."

Gu Zhiyi's expression changed slightly, she frowned, but soon regained her composure. She listened quietly to Wu Jingying's story, her eyes full of sympathy and understanding.

Wu Jingying looked at Gu Zhiyi, with a hint of expectation in her eyes, as if she was seeking Gu Zhiyi's understanding and support. She continued, "Madam, you know, I have always regarded Aunt Li as my sister, but she...she treated me like this. I am really...really heartbroken."

Gu Zhiyi gently patted Wu Jingying's hand and said softly: "I know that you have always been a kind woman and you are very good to the people in the mansion. However, some people have deep scheming and we cannot predict it."

Wu Jingying's eyes flashed with determination, and she said, "Madam, I think Aunt Li should be punished. What she did is not only a disservice to me, the eldest young master, but also to the entire Ningguo Mansion."

Gu Zhiyi nodded slightly, and she looked at Wu Jingying with admiration in her eyes. She knew that Wu Jingying was a woman of integrity, and she would not bow her head because of Aunt Li's frame-up.

Gu Zhiyi said softly: "You are right. Aunt Li's behavior should indeed be punished. I will find a chance to talk to the young master and let him understand the truth."

When Wu Jingying heard this, a trace of gratitude flashed in her eyes. She knew that Gu Zhiyi was sincerely helping her.

However, when it comes to Xie Yunchen, Wu Jingying's eyes become complicated again. She said: "Madam, the eldest young master... he favors his concubine and ignores his wife without knowing the truth, and he should also be severely punished."

Gu Zhiyi smiled slightly. She knew the pain in Wu Jingying's heart. She said softly, "Jingying, I know you feel very bitter, but the eldest young master is the eldest son of the Ningguo Mansion. We can't be too harsh on him. We can only guide him slowly and let him understand his mistakes."

Wu Jingying looked at Gu Zhiyi with a hint of doubt in her eyes. She knew that Gu Zhiyi was doing this for her own good, but she really didn't know how to face Xie Yunchen.
