The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 227

Chapter 227: 137 Blushing (Second Update)_2

The words from housekeeper Fong were both sarcastic towards Gu Jinyu and put down Gu Chenglin, making the marquis of Gu, even if he sees Gu Chenglin weeping, think that he is being fussy.

The Marquis of Gu frowned, “Has Yanyan met Chenglin?”

Housekeeper Fong sneered, “Interestingly, all three young masters happened to attend the same academy. On the first day of school, the third young master recognized the young master, but the young master did not recognize him. He was then kidnapped and tied up in the firewood room for a whole day, barely surviving a life-threatening illness.”

The Marquis of Gu was furious, “Rebellious son! Let him kneel in the ancestral hall for me!” _{freёwebnoѵel.com}

After speaking coldly, the Marquis of Gu did not even check on Gu Chenglin’s injuries and left to see Gu Yan in Bishui Alley.

Only housekeeper Fong and Gu Jinyu were left on the lawn.

Gu Jinyu opened her mouth.

Housekeeper Fong bowed, “Young Mistress, it’s getting late. You should go rest. I have to go attend to Madam.”

“Housekeeper!” Gu Jinyu stopped her, “I… what I intended to say earlier…”

Housekeeper Fong nodded, “I understand. Although Young Mistress is not the Marquis Residence’s own blood, Madam still brought you up with care. How could Young Mistress not support Madam and instead support others? Wouldn’t that be heartless and ungrateful?”

Gu Jinyu turned pale.

Housekeeper Fong lightly smiled, “I am a servant and not an eloquent speaker. Please bear with me, Young Mistress.”

Gu Jinyu wasn’t sure what to say, feeling as though she’d been scolded even if housekeeper Fong didn’t directly confront her.

After all, housekeeper Fong is loyal to Madam Yao, so only Gu Yan could defy her – not amiable Gu Jinyu.

“Housekeeper’s words are too harsh.” Gu Jinyu replied, “Housekeeper, go take care of my mother.”

Housekeeper Fong said solemnly, “Young mistress may want to remember Madam’s words: don’t associate too much with the sons of the previous wife. They won’t accept you and won’t be your support in the future. Excuse my frankness, the only ones you can truly rely on are Madam and the young mistress.”

Gu Jinyu gives a little smile, “I’ll keep it in mind, Housekeeper.”

An ignorant country girl, who only knows how to scavenge for food, how can she be her backbone?

Because her lame husband who knows some knowledge there?

Old Housekeeper is indeed old indeed.

When the Marquis of Gu went to see Gu Yan, Gu Yan had already recovered quite well, but was still pretending to be on the brink of death.
