It seemed that the person wanted the Old Madam’s life, but did not dare to kill her.

While Gu Qingxue was thinking about this, she heard a mocking voice from afar.

“Why didn’t Gu Qingxue come? Why do you think she didn’t come? Of course, it was because she was shameless. She was just a poor widow with no power and influence. If she came, she would only embarra.s.s the Gu family. If I were her, I would also hide and not dare to see anyone,” Gu Xin’er said sharply, every word she said revealed her disdain for Gu Qingxue.

Gu Qingxue raised her eyes and looked in the direction of Gu Xin’er.

She saw Gu Xin’er and Gu Lingyue entertaining a few young men and women, and the topic of their discussion was her.

Gu Qingxue’s expression was indifferent, and she did not take Gu Xin’er’s words to heart.

She had long guessed that there would definitely be someone targeting her at today’s birthday banquet, so she had arranged for the three children to go out in advance to attend tonight’s lantern festival. She could attend the birthday banquet alone.

The three children were still young. In Dafu Village, they would all be ridiculed by those evil people as b*stards without a father, not to mention today’s occasion.

She did not want them to suffer so much at such a young age.

Moreover, there were too many conspiracies at this kind of banquet. She did not want to see her children being corrupted by these people’s dirty thoughts at such a young age.

However, she could not just sit still and wait for death. She had to teach these people a lesson and let them know how powerful she was.

With this thought, Gu Qingxue walked around the long corridor and headed towards the main entrance of the garden.

Gu Xin’er had just finished speaking when Gu Lingyue immediately smiled and said, “Everyone, please don’t mind. My fourth sister is always frank and outspoken. Some of her words may be a little inappropriate.”

When Gu Lingyue said this, not only did she not help Gu Qingxue out of her predicament, but everyone felt that Gu Xin’er was speaking the truth. It was just that her words were a little unpleasant.

“I’ve also heard that back then, the Eldest Miss had to marry a country b.u.mpkin. In the end, she harmed herself and killed her husband.” When a young lady said this, she seemed to have realized something, suddenly, she covered her mouth with a handkerchief. “Oh, look at what I said. Second Miss, I didn’t mean it. Don’t mind me.”

“Miss Zhang, just say this to my face. Don’t say it in front of my eldest sister. My eldest sister’s life was not easy. My brother-in-law pa.s.sed away early. Her three children were also at an age where they were stubborn and insensible. My eldest sister became more and more tired, and her temper also became more irritable. It makes my heart ache,” Gu Lingyue sighed faintly.

“Yue’er, you are still so kind,” the most handsome man among the group of young men and women said with a sigh.

Gu Lingyue looked at this man and could not help but blush, “Crown prince, you are flattering me. My elder sister and I are family, so we should care about her feelings.”

“Yes, since you and I are already engaged, then your family is also my family. Don’t worry, I will help you take care of your eldest sister,” Ling Tianqi said gently to Gu Lingyue.

“Lord Crown Prince…” Gu Lingyue blushed shyly. Just as she was about to speak again, she suddenly heard a voice.

“The eldest daughter of the Gu family is here!”

For a moment, everyone’s gaze turned towards the entrance of the garden.

Gu Xin’er and Gu Lingyue’s words earlier had already reminded everyone of the Gu Qingxue of the past.

The Gu Qingxue of the past was a timid and incompetent person. Every time she attended a banquet, she did not even dare to look at others. When she bowed, she was even timider. She did not show any good demeanor. In ten banquets, there would be nine times where she would make a fool of herself.
