Because Gu Wanyu was trying hard to show off and was also quite beautiful, and because of the flattery from people with ulterior motives, and because she also received a lot of gifts, Gu Wanyu was extremely happy that day.

She felt that today was the happiest day of her life.

In the evening, when the mother and daughter closed the door and opened the gifts, Jiang's face was wrinkled with smile, "Yu'er, did you see that? The wives of Dingyuan Marquis and Changning Marquis looked at you with shining eyes and praised you non-stop."

"The princes of both their families are still unmarried, so they must have set their eyes on you to be their prince's consort." Jiang became more and more excited as she spoke.

She thought seriously and said, "Comparing these two families, mother is more optimistic about the Changning Marquis's Mansion. The Changning Marquis's son is now 19 years old and has already passed the imperial examination. He will definitely pass the imperial examination in the future."

"Although fame is just icing on the cake for these noble sons, with fame, they can achieve some results in the court and then have real power. If they are more powerful, they can enter the cabinet, which is glorious."

"Mom, there's nothing decided yet." Gu Wanyu saw that her mother looked happy as if someone had already proposed a marriage and they were just waiting for them to choose, but her expression was indifferent.

She was actually happy too, because being chosen by the Marquis's wife showed that she had the qualities.

But she had no interest in being the wife of a prince in a marquis's mansion.

So what if she's the wife of the Crown Prince? At most she'll be the wife of the Marquis in the future?

How to compare with Ji Nanzheng?

She doesn't want to be a marquis's wife, she wants Ji Nanzheng, she wants to be a duke's wife.

As I said, for men, 10 Gu Wanzhous are not as good as one Gu Wanyu.

Today, not only did the two marquis' wives and the young ladies praise her in various ways, but the young masters also kept stealing glances at her, and some even took the initiative to strike up a conversation with her.

What does this mean?

This is enough to show that Gu Wanyu is very charming.

Although she was determined to win over Ji Nanzheng before, her confidence was not very full. But her popularity today filled the previous gap in confidence.

Gu Wanyu was confident that as long as she was given the opportunity, Ji Nanzheng would definitely fall at her feet.

What a pity that Ji Nanzheng didn’t come today.

Gu Wanyu sighed slightly.

He thought that he could meet Ji Nanzheng today and have close contact with Ji Nanzheng. She was dressed so beautifully that Ji Nanzheng would definitely be amazed by her.

However, Ji Nanzheng did not come. The Duke Dingguo's Mansion just sent someone to deliver a birthday gift, saying that Ji Nanzheng had official business and could not get away.

But Gu Wanyu only felt regret for a moment: as long as Ji Nanzheng married Gu Wanzhou and became her brother-in-law, she would have plenty of opportunities.

Although Wan Zhou did not go out, he knew a lot about what was happening outside because of Qiu Ge, the bird that brought good news.

"Miss, you don't know, there are quite a few young masters from aristocratic families here today. I have never seen so many young masters."

Qiu Ge spoke eloquently: "Don't say that, the young masters of the noble families are different. Miss. Let me give you an example. Young Master Jiang is considered good-looking, right? But when he stands next to those young masters of the noble families, even though he looks better than them, it seems that the light around him cannot shine on him."

"That's called eclipsed." Wan Zhou said with a smile.

"Yes, yes. So, I guess Mr. Jiang must be unhappy because of this, so he left in a hurry after lunch."

Wan Zhou was reading a storybook. After hearing Qiu Ge's words, he smiled slightly.

It is certain that Jiang Xuan is humble.

But the one who made him feel so inferior that he couldn't stay there was definitely not those noblemen, but Gu Wanyu.

Yes, Jiang Xuan was so pissed off by Gu Wanyu that he went home and locked himself in the study room drinking alone.

"Brother, I told you long ago that Cousin Yu has eyes for our family and she doesn't like our family at all, but you didn't believe it. Now that you've seen it with your own eyes today, you can finally give up, right?" Jiang Yi looked at the lonely Jiang Xuan with deep sorrow.

She also went to the birthday party today. Gu Wanyu was dressed like a butterfly, looking around at those young masters. The only thing she lacked was to seduce them openly.

And her good aunt Jiang, who fawned over those ladies from high-ranking families, was doing it just to find a good marriage for Gu Wanyu, wasn't she?

And her good brother wanted to talk to Gu Wanyu, but Gu Wanyu looked impatient and didn't even want to give her silly brother any more glances.

It would be strange if his silly brother wasn't hurt.

Jiang Xuan seemed not to hear what Jiang Yi said and just kept drinking.

Jiang Yi was so disappointed that she said harshly, "Brother, can you wake up a little? Gu Wanyu is a vain person. She agreed to marry you because of Gu Wanzhou's dowry. Now the gap between our two families is even greater. Even if you drink yourself to death, she won't even look at you."

"Get out of here." Jiang Xuan finally raised his head and yelled at Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi was horrified to see his red eyes. She stomped her feet and walked out of the door angrily.

"Crackling", as soon as Jiang Yiren left, Jiang Xuan overturned the table, and the wine glasses and wine jugs were broken all over the floor.

Jiang Xuan picked up a porcelain shard, and without a moment's hesitation, he pointed the sharp corner of the shard at the back of his hand and stabbed it hard. It didn't feel like he was stabbing himself, but more like he was stabbing a piece of pork.

The sharp corner of the porcelain shard pierced deeply into the flesh, and a string of blood immediately appeared.

His heart was in so much pain that he wanted to balance the pain in his heart with the pain in his body.

Over the past year, Gu Wanyu has been exceptionally cold towards him. He once told himself that he did not give up on Gu Wanyu because of Gu Wanzhou's threats, and he no longer had much admiration for Gu Wanyu.

But today, after seeing Gu Wanyu smiling and talking to other men with his own eyes and witnessing the fact that Gu Wanyu might really be getting married with someone else, he realized that he had not let it go at all.

It turned out that he had already immersed himself in it and could not bear to see Gu Wanyu belong to someone else.

Just as Jiang Yi said, Gu Wanyu smiled and talked to others, but was so cold to him that she didn't even bother to look at him, as if he were some kind of monster.

How could Gu Wanyu treat him like this?

He loves her.

Jiang Xuan looked at the mess on the ground and slowly clenched his fists: Gu Wanyu, for you, I lost my conscience and deceived Gu Wanzhou for so many years. How could you become someone else's? !
