Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 1581

Shi Anxia believed that since Madam Gu said they were "confidants", then they must be "confidants".

Because if there was another private affair, Madam Gu would say "Mr. Shi and I have a mutual affection for each other", instead of emphasizing "a close friend with whom I can tell you everything".

Suddenly, Shi Anxia came to her senses, "So, my father said he wanted to marry you, but it was actually a fake marriage?"

Madam Gu went through such a long circle and finally returned to the starting point. She lowered her eyes and was silent for a moment before answering the irrelevant question, "Princess, you can understand it this way. When we were in Ganzhou, Lord Shi often mentioned your mother to me. Whenever he talked about it, especially after drinking a little, he would burst into tears. Once, he stumbled and fell to the ground and refused to get up, and kept shouting, 'Lord Chu, I was wrong, please forgive me'..."

Shi Anxia: "......"

Wei Cailing: “…”

Well, I don’t know what to say.

Madam Gu said, "Since then, Lord Shi may have felt that his most embarrassing appearance had been seen by me, so I am not only a confidant, but also a relative. In my mansion in Ganzhou, there is a yard for Lord Shi to live in." She paused and continued, "In fact, I have also reserved a yard for Lord Shi in this house. He can stay for two days if he wants."

Shi Anxia: "......"

How can I put it! How lucky does a person have to be to get such a great blessing by doing one thing right in his life?

She could see that Madam Gu treated people sincerely.

Madam Gu said softly, "A few days ago, Lord Shi was in a very bad mood. He came to stay for one night and asked me to drink with him. He said that your mother, Princess, is going to marry Mr. Chu Sheng. He must marry before your mother to save face, so he asked me to pretend to marry her."

Wei Cailing: “…”

Save face! My husband got it right again! Sure enough, the stupid dad is still the stupid dad, capable of doing such a stupid thing.

Shi Anxia felt tired, "I'm sorry, Madam Gu."

What a good-tempered girl! She just lets her stupid father do whatever he wants.

Madam Gu shook her head. "In fact, I guess that Lord Shi may not only want to save face, but his real purpose may be... to force your mother to change her mind. And he doesn't know how to win someone back, so he resorted to this last resort. I advised him not to make things worse. Alas, when Lord Shi is stubborn, he is... like a child who has not grown up."

Now that things have come to this, Madam Gu doesn't mind speaking out, "Since Lord Shi is determined to have a fake marriage, I will do as he wishes and help him this time. Of course, I also have my own plans."

She raised her head and met the princess' gentle gaze. "Everyone calls me 'Mrs. Gu'. They all think that my maiden name is Gu and I have never been married. In fact, my husband's family name is Gu..."

A woman supports a family, and a large family at that. The pressure and hardship involved can be imagined.

Madam Gu's husband died early, leaving behind an orphan and a widow.

In the past, members of the Gu family almost wanted to drive them and their son out of the house, plotting to seize the family property left by her late husband.

A trace of cruelty inadvertently flashed across Madam Gu's eyes, "I am not a good person either. I will use some tricks to intimidate the evildoers in the clan."

If she was really kind, she would have been dead long ago. How could I sit here and talk to a princess about the hardships of life?

On this point, Shi Anxia deeply felt that her mother Tang Chujun was not as good as Madam Gu.
