The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 199

Chapter 199: 126 Hairpin (First Round)_3

They are praising Gu Jinyu for her exceptional intelligence!

Gu Jinyu bowed and said, “It’s all thanks to grandmother’s great teaching. Since my childhood, I’ve enjoyed my time under her tutelage, where I learned by looking and hearing. My current knowledge is all due to her efforts. She didn’t show favoritism due to my being a girl; she invited many distinguished scholars to tutor me. Without grandmother, there would be no Countess Jin Yu.”

Gu’s Dowager Lady felt thrilled by these words.

Indeed, the Dowager Lady deeply loved Jin Yu, but she could not compare this love with that for her three legitimate grandsons. The scholars were invited by Marquis Gu, and all the old lady had done was not objecting.

But Jin Yu attributed this credit to her. This showed her filial devotion.

Unlike that wild girl who was raised in the countryside; she has been in the Capital City for so long, yet she hasn’t visited to pay her respects.

What a pity she’s not her blood kin, hence the invisible barrier.

“Congratulations, old lady and Countess!” Lady Ling presented the gift she had carefully prepared.

Jin Yu didn’t really like Lady Ling, but she knew the Dowager Lady adored Lady Ling. So, she wouldn’t offend her.

She personally accepted Lady Ling’s gift: “Thank you, my lady.”

Lady Ling took out another gift: “This is prepared by your elder brother. He couldn’t leave the military camp, so he asked me to bring the gift to you first.”

Jin Yu knew that it was actually Lady Ling who prepared this, but she was not disappointed. You can’t become fat in one bite. The changes in her brother’s attitude towards her would come slowly. She could already see initial hints and believed that with time, her elder brother would accept her from the bottom of his heart!

Jin Yu’s coming of age ceremony was grand, attracting many dignitaries from Capital City. Even the official from Guozijian came!

The official was second only to the chancellor in Guozijian, with two ranks: chief and deputy. The one who came was Chief Zheng!

The young chancellor had passed away, and the old chancellor resigned and left Capital City. Everyone in the city was saying that this Chief Zheng would be the next chancellor of Guozijian!
