The Grand Secretary’s Pampered Wife

He didn’t even shed a lot of tears when he was beaten terribly by Gu Jiao.

"That's not mother’s heirloom." Gu Changqing suddenly said.

“Huh?" Gu Chenglin was stupefied.

Gu Chengfeng also looked at his eldest brother curiously.

Gu Changqing let out a sigh and said, "The vase you peed on has been buried as mother’s grave goods. Who knew you would cry for this vase the next day? Hence I had people make an imitation of it."contemporary romance

Gu Chenglin：“…”

Dang it!

So all that crying was for nothing?

Gu Changqing furrowed his brows, thinking it was strange though. This vase was on top of the display shelf so how did Ling Shuxian or Gu Jinyu come across it?

He quickly entered the study.

At a glance, he noticed that something was amiss.

On the long narrow table, the urn beside his mother's memorial tablet had disappeared.

He turned around and saw his mother's urn where the vase was supposed to be.

Someone had been here.

And that person changed the position of his mother's urn and the vase.

Otherwise, what was knocked over in the afternoon was not an imitation vase, but his mother's urn that contained her ashes.

"Who has come into my study?" Gu Changqing called the servant boy and questioned.

The servant boy answered, "Just the two young masters and two young misses."

It wasn’t them.

They didn't even notice that the urn had been moved.

Did someone move the urn ahead of time knowing it would be broken?

……

Gu Jiao’s group of three headed back to Yao shi's courtyard.

Gu Jinyu's eyes reddened involuntarily when she remembered the injustice she had suffered in her eldest brother's courtyard. She said, "Mom, you have to believe me, I really didn't touch eldest brother's things. I know that I can’t just go into eldest brother's study casually. I only went in after I heard a strange noise, worried that biao younger sister had an accident. I never thought biao younger sister would frame me when she broke the vase herself... "

Yao shi’s expression didn’t look very well as she responded, "What does it matter if you broke it or not? How many times have I told you, don't go near your three older brothers, or you will have countless troubles. It’s exactly what happened now, isn’t it?"

Gu Jiao looked at Gu Jinyu, who was crying like raindrops on a pear blossom, and her expression was indifferent.

Yao shi added, "Gu Chenglin would have attacked you today if your sister hadn't stopped him! Why are you so foolish as to go near them?"

Gu Jinyu felt wronged, saying, "They are my older brothers…"

"You don't have older brothers, only a younger brother and an older sister." Yao shi replied firmly.

As cruel as it sounded, didn’t those three also think so?

Yao shi continued, "In the future, you should never associate with the Ling Family again."

The Ling Family was the parental family of the First Madame, and they harbored great prejudice and dissatisfaction towards them.

Gu Jinyu tearfully said, "It was grandmother who asked me to teach biao younger sister... today..."

She glanced at Gu Jiao and went on, "If only sister had been with us just now, biao younger sister wouldn't have had a chance to frame me!"

Yao shi said, "How can your sister stay with you? She has barely entered the estate a few times, she didn't even know Young Miss Ling."

Gu Jinyu replied, "Biao younger sister asked me to invite sister to sit in the pavilion with us. I went to invite sister but she refused..."

Gu Jiao was simply speechless. Was this the so-called, ‘Can’t get out your own shit, and blames the earth for having no gravity?’

When she asked her to pay Yao shi a visit together, why didn't she come with her?

Also, would Young Miss Ling really kindly invite her?

Gu Jiao was too lazy to argue with her. Anyways, she didn't care what other people thought of herself. She picked up her back basket and said, "I'll take my leave first."

There were still three sick people at home, so Yao shi couldn’t keep her.

After she left, Yao shi turned to Gu Jinyu with a stern look and said, "How can you blame your sister for what happened today? What exactly did your sister do wrong?"

Gu Jinyu was stunned, "I... I didn't..."

Yao shi spoke strictly, "Your sister has neither spent a cent nor taken a bite of food from the Marquis Estate, she doesn't have to recognize any of her relatives. Even if Young Miss Ling asked her, she also has the right to refuse!"

"Mom..."

Yao shi had never used such a harsh tone to talk to Gu Jinyu before. In Gu Jinyu's eyes, Yao shi had always been gentle, considerate and even weak.

Nowadays, however, Yao shi was getting tough.

Yao shi added, "Don't let me hear these words again. I forbid you to unjustly accuse your sister again in the future."

She didn’t even hear these words from her mother’s mouth when she was blamed wrongfully just now. Gu Jinyu felt extremely aggrieved.

Besides her younger brother, her mother was supposed to love her the most, wasn’t she?

But she feared that the one her mother loved the most now... was her sister.

"Say Grannie, do you think it was really her that broke the vase?" Yao shi asked Grannie Fang after Gu Jinyu left.

Grannie Fang had found out earlier that Young Miss Ling had fled the estate, which showed that she had a guilty conscience.

Grannie Fang didn't say anything though and merely sighed, "Alas, how dare this old servant speculate? Even if it's the second young miss’s fault, it should be unintentional. She is also trying to please the shizi after all."

Yao shi was suddenly a little disappointed with this daughter.

……

Little Jing Kong finally found out about his shaved head.

Wu, he instantly burst into tears!

He had grown that hair for more than half a year... Pretty soon and he would be able to tie it into a mini ponytail... But now it was all gone!

He was bald again!

Holding his little bald head, he sat on the threshold of the door while crying his heart out, "My hair is all gone—— Bad brother-in-law should compensate for my hair—— Bad brother-in-law! Bad brother-in-law! Bad brother-in-law! You compensate for my loss hair——"

Xiao Liulang said in a firm tone, "You asked me to shave it yourself."

Little Jing Kong cried more loudly and kicked about his legs, "I didn't! I didn't! You’re talking nonsense!"

That night, Little Jing Kong was muddled by the fever and had no memory of it, but he was convinced that he would never give up his beloved precious hair. It must be his bad brother-in-law who was jealous of him and shaved his hair while he had a fever!

Xiao Liulang spread his hands and said, "Ask JiaoJiao later if you don't believe me."

Shortly afterwards, Gu Jiao was back.

A big one and a small one were at the door, watching her.

Xiao Liulang helplessly leaned against the door frame while Little Jing Kong sat on the threshold with a look of injustice.

Gu Jiao faintly sensed a dark cloud looming overhead.

“This... What's the matter?" She asked.

“JiaoJiao.” Little Jing Kong looked at her with great pain and said, "Bad brother-in-law said... that I was confused that night... that it was myself who had my hair shaved... that you were there... that you agreed... that you handed him the razor..."

He was so sorrowful that his thoughts were completely written all over his face—— JiaoJiao, how can you watch others destroy my beloved precious hair and even hand them the blade? Are you still the Jiaojiao I love the most?

Gu Jiao took a deep breath, stroked his poor little bald head, turned to Xiao Liulang and said, "You’re in the wrong. Why throw the pot to the child when you’re the one who shaved his hair?"

Xiao Liulang: "...!!!”
