Transmigrated into a Prosperous Farm Wife, Pampered, Beautiful, Strong, and Tragic Prime Minister

Guo family.

Guo Zhong and his servant were very satisfied with the arrangement of the garden.

Everything is ready; we're just waiting for the right opportunity.

Once Jiang Changtian arrives, it's a one-way trip.

"Damn it! Why are there so many stray cats in the house lately?" Guo Chong looked up and saw several more stray cats circling on the wall.

Lately, I keep seeing stray cats whenever I look up at home. If you didn't know better, you'd think I'd disturbed a cat's nest.

The servant smiled obsequiously, "Young master, it's probably because we're having a big feast with lots of meat that there are so many stray cats around. I'll have someone chase them away right away."

"Never mind them, they're just a few beasts. I'll save my energy for important things." Guo Chongyi thought they were just a few beasts and not worth wasting time on, so he ignored them.

"The results will be released this afternoon, young master, would you like to..."

The servant was afraid that Jiang Changtian would pass the exam, so he wanted to make his move in advance.

After all, they had a blood feud with Jiang Changtian, so naturally they didn't want him to pass the exam.

The servant was also thinking that if Jiang Changtian rose to prominence, Guo Zhong would be fine, but he, a mere lackey, might be the first to lose his life.

"So what if he's on the list? He's just a minor scholar. Does he think he can get first place and be accepted as Dean Bai's apprentice?" Guo Zhong sneered.

"Don't do anything yet, we'll talk about it later. Let's go to the jewelry store."

Hearing that Meng Yingying had gone to the jewelry store, Guo Zhong naturally wanted to go and see the beauty.

Meng Yingying was in a bad mood and went out for a stroll, only to be blocked by Guo Zhong.

"Yingying, where are you going?" Guo Zhong asked Meng Yingying with a grin.

Meng Yingying immediately felt nauseous when she saw his mouth full of yellow teeth, but she didn't want to directly break off the relationship, so she leaned forward slightly and said, "Young Master Guo."

"Yingying, why are you being so polite? Just call me Brother Guo. You're here to buy jewelry, right? Which piece do you like? I'll give it to you."

Guo Zhong looked Meng Yingying up and down, his eyes filled with lewd light.

Meng Yingying is growing more and more beautiful. This county magistrate's daughter is different from a courtesan. I wonder what she tastes like.

Meng Yingying felt disgusted by such gazes, but she couldn't retaliate.

"No need, I'm just browsing."

Meng Yingying wanted to leave, but Guo Zhong blocked her way from both sides, refusing to let her pass.

"Use them? Of course we'll use them, shopkeeper! Quickly bring out all the nice jewelry. Don't you have any taste?" Guo Zhong scolded.

The shopkeeper laid out several hairpins and earrings. "Miss Meng, these are the latest pieces from our jewelry store. They're all brand new. Take a look."

"What are you looking at? Wrap everything up for Yingying. Yingying is pretty, and she'll look good in these. How about we let Brother Guo see them?" Guo Zhong said, reaching out to take Meng Yingying's hand.

"Young Master Guo, please have some self-respect!" Meng Yingying fearfully backed away, while Xiao He braced herself and blocked her young mistress's path.

“Young Master Guo, men and women should not be too close. My young lady cannot accept this. Otherwise, it would be against etiquette. Besides, my young lady does not lack these things.”

Guo Zhong would always try to touch Xiao He inappropriately whenever he saw her, but she was also afraid.

Wuyun County wasn't too poor, and the Meng family wasn't exactly poor either. They weren't rich, but Meng Yingying could afford to wear and accessorize ordinary clothes and jewelry.

Although Guo Chong gave her a lot, Meng Yingying wasn't tempted at all; she only felt extremely disgusted.

"Get out! Or I'll kill you!"

Guo Chong's face fell when he saw that the maid was in the way.

Although Xiaohe was terrified and trembling all over, she dared not run away, showing a fearless attitude.

The servant boy chuckled and pulled Xiaohe aside, "You little rascal, how can you be so inflexible? Here, would Young Master Guo possibly harm Miss Meng?"

A gold hairpin was slipped into Xiaohe's hand.

Xiaohe, still holding the hairpin, stood protectively in front of Meng Yingying.

The servant pulled Guo Chong aside and whispered, "Young master, if you want to win Miss Meng's heart, you can't force her with so many people watching. She is, after all, the daughter of a county magistrate. It won't look good if things get out of hand. We should wait until we're in a secluded place and then use a combination of gentle persuasion and firmness."

"You're quite clever, kid," Guo Zhong thought to himself.

The servant chuckled, "Without even this much sense, how can you serve the young master?"

"Yingying, I was rash just now. I apologize to you. These clothes look really good on you. I'll give them all to you. Let's go to the teahouse and sit down. I'll make amends to you properly."

Guo Chong leered at Meng Yingying, as if he hadn't been the one speaking harshly just moments before.

Meng Yingying said coldly, "No need, I have other things to do."

As he spoke, he led Xiaohe out of the jewelry store.

Guo Zhong followed her out. "Yingying, don't be angry. I was just joking with you. You won't even give me this much face?"

"I……"

"I know, I know everything. You like me too, don't you? You're just too shy to say it because you're a girl." Guo Chong blocked their way, preventing them from leaving.

"Let's go, if you don't go, you're disrespecting me!"

Guo Zhong kept saying that Meng Yingying liked him, or he would deliberately try to do something intimate, which disgusted Meng Yingying, but she couldn't say anything.

"Young Master Guo, you..."

Meng Yingying saw Jiang Changtian when she was in a dilemma.

He was talking to Lin Shuyun, and the two seemed very close.

"Jiang Changtian, are you just going to stand by and watch me get entangled with Guo Zhong?"

Meng Yingying's eyes immediately turned red.

Lin Shuyun and Jiang Changtian, who were passing by, were confused.

Jiang Changtian said that books could be borrowed from the academy, so Lin Shuyun thought of borrowing two books for Lin Hongwen to read, and happened to pass by the Jewelry Pavilion.

Lin Shuyun's eyes lit up as soon as she saw Meng Yingying. Was there some juicy gossip to be had?

Jiang Changtian frowned.

Guo Zhong saw Jiang Changtian's ugly expression and said, "It's you again, kid. This is between Yingying and me. I advise you not to meddle in other people's business!"

He almost succeeded before, but this kid ruined his plans and made Meng Yingying avoid him like the plague.

Seeing Lin Shuyun with Jiang Changtian, Meng Yingying felt extremely uncomfortable and aggrieved. "Jiang Changtian, he's trying to drag me to the teahouse. Are you going to keep pretending not to hear?"

Guo Zhong also stared at Jiang Changtian, "Get lost, or you won't even know how you died!"

Jiang Changtian's brows were so furrowed they could trap a fly. "I didn't intend to meddle. I was just passing by. What's with the barking? You guys continue!"

Lin Shuyun: Oh wow, that sounds a bit immoral, but why does she love hearing it so much?

"Brother Changtian, why do you say that? I know now, it's because she doesn't want you to take care of me, isn't it?"

Meng Yingying burst into tears, glaring angrily at Lin Shuyun, "How can you be so narrow-minded and jealous? Changtian and I are just friends..."

"It's not my sister, what does it have to do with me? Why are you making such a fuss?" Lin Shuyun didn't expect that she would be forced to take the blame for something she was just eating.

Smiling at Meng Yingying, she said, "Oh... I see. You like my man, but you're jealous that I'm prettier than you. You know you can't compare, so you feel inferior and deliberately try to shift the blame?"
