The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 203

Chapter 203: 128 Show Off (First Update)

Yao Family’s matriarch lifted the cloth from the birdcage and found a chick hawk inside.

She asked Xiao Jingkong how he knew the elder brother, and Xiao Jingkong recounted his rescue experience, “I went to save Xiaoqi and almost got hit by a carriage, but the elder brother saved me! He’s so powerful!”

As he spoke, his eyes were filled with admiration for Gu Changqing.

Yao Family’s matriarch and Gu Changqing had not lived together for ten years. Her impression of Gu Changqing remained from before he was eleven years old. At that time, Gu Changqing had believed someone’s false accusations, convinced that Yao Family’s matriarch had caused the death of his own mother.

Gu Changqing was vehemently opposed to Yao Family’s matriarch, having nothing but resentment in his eyes for her.

He wasn’t kind to Gu Yan either.

At first Gu Yan didn’t understand and would often go to his three elder brothers, only to return home bruised and battered.

Whenever Marquis Gu found out, he would severely beat his sons. However, after the beatings, someone would inform the old lady and the ones who ended up suffering were Yao Family’s matriarch and Gu Yan.

Yao Family’s matriarch knew that Gu Changqing never laid his hands on Gu Yan himself but he never saved Gu Yan from his other brothers the way he saved Xiao Jingkong.

She felt sour in her heart. Why was he able to show kindness to strangers but not to Gu Yan?

Nevertheless, ten years had passed and she had long since let it go.

Gu Yan had Jiaojiao. He lived happily with Jiaojiao, without the need to face anyone at the Marquis residence or suffer any unnecessary harm. _{ƒreewebɳovel.com}

“Elder brother is a good person!” Xiao Jingkong clutched the birdcage and exclaimed.

Yao Family’s matriarch gave a bitter smile without a word.

Gu Changqing was a military officer of Zhan Country. He had the duty to protect the citizens of Zhan Country. He was a good person to everyone. However, he wished to devour her and Yan’er.

Through Xiao Jingkong, Yao Family’s matriarch found out that Gu Jiao had also met Gu Changqing, though they didn’t know each other’s identities.

Gu Changqing did not meet Gu Yan. If he had, he probably would not have guessed Gu Yan’s identity either.

“Did elder brother only come once?” Yao Family’s matriarch asked.

“Mmm… counting today, twice!” Xiao Jingkong said.

The first time was when he saved Xiao Jingkong and brought him home. This time, he probably just happened to pass by and gave him a bird because he thought Xiao Jingkong was cute.

Otherwise?

Did he come specifically to celebrate Jiaojiao’s birthday?
