Chapter 492: Something to Talk About

“That Third Lady was behaving way too over the top. You are the lineal daughter, but you have to watch out for the concubine’s children. They are always out there to get you.”
“…”
“Lord Huai is going to be a great family for you. You have to watch out!” Madame Deng said. She had once been tricked before as a beginner.
Gu Chaoyan realized what Madame Deng meant.
She did not worry about Zhou Huaijin who was already cautious enough, but she still needed to thank Madame Deng for reminding her.
She was indeed a very sensible person. She had known so much conspiracy, and she herself seemed to have experienced some losses before.
Gu Chaoyan nodded. “Thank you, Madame Deng!”
She had some more chitchats with Madame Deng.
When Mrs. Gu and Gu Xiuying returned and saw Gu Chaoyan in the middle of a conversation with Madame Deng, she looked rather unhappy. She took Gu Chaoyan here because she did not want her to socialize with other ladies, but this bitch was doing the opposite.
Madame Deng realized that Mrs. Gu must be very displeased after seeing Mrs. Gu’s expression. So she got up and returned to her own seat.
Mrs. Gu, who had intended to speak with Madame Deng, had to give up. She said to Gu Chaoyan. “It is getting late, we need to go home.”
Madame Deng could not stand that any more.
The Gu Family must be the only one who was leaving for home at this point.
When Mrs. Gu’s daughter was not around, she did not expect anyone else to be noticed by anyone at the Min Mansion, did she?
Madame Deng was about to say something, when Gu Chaoyan shook her head at her.
It was alright to leave now. She came to the Min Mansion for a purpose, which was already realized. It was fine to go home early. She felt uncomfortable sitting here.
She got up and greeted Madame Deng. “Thank you Madame Deng for today, I am going home now.”
“Don’t mention it.” Madame Deng said straightforwardly.
“When you see Madame Min, please tell her about me leaving.” Gu Chaoyan said as she thought for a second.
“Okay.” Madame Deng agreed – she and Madame Min did hang out every now and then.
Mrs. Gu saw the scene, and thought that Madame Deng was an easygoing person.
Madame Deng was the wife of the Office of Board of Rites and Ceremonies, and she had intended to exchange a few words with her but failed. Now was a good chance. Mrs. Gu was about to say something to Madame Deng… when Madame Deng turned around and started to speak with other ladies instead.
Mrs. Gu looked embarrassed, gave out a dry laugh and tried to cover what she had done as if nothing happened. She said to Gu Chaoyan and Gu Xiuying with a cold look on her face. “Let’s leave.”
Gu Xiuying was displeased, but Gu Chaoyan showed no expression.
They got into the wagon.
Inside the wagon, Gu Xiuying had to stop thinking about the Min Mansion since they were already on the way home. She realized that what needed to happen right now was to get the biggest interest for herself.
Gu Xiuying looked at Gu Chaoyan and felt excitement rolling inside her stomach.
Well, who else could get Madame Min and Princess Yunxi for the Adulthood Ceremony! Even the lady from the Prime Minister’s Mansion might not have such a qualification. So she had to take the assistant position!
“Gu Chaoyan, I have got something to talk with you about.” Gu Xiuying said confidently. She believed that Gu Chaoyan was definitely going to say yes, or she could just ask her father to make the proposal for her!
