Huang Zifu smiled with her lips and said, “Of course I’m annoyed. After all, if I hadn’t been blocking it in front of me today, the person who fell from the lotus pond now would be you, cousin.”
Gu Lixi was stunned, and knew that she was a little injustice. It was just out of self-esteem that she turned her head proudly and did not intend to answer.
Huang Zifu bent her eyebrows, but she didn’t intend to argue with her. Gu Lixi was arrogant and never took people seriously. It was precisely because of this that after an accident in the water in his previous life, Huang Zifu did not stay in the Weiyuan Marquis’ Mansion and returned to the palace. Since then, his relationship with the Weiyuan Marquis’ Mansion has gradually faded.
But she will never do this in this life. Although Gu Lixi is cold and difficult to get along with, in the near future, she will marry the Grand Marshal who is in charge of the troops of Nan Chu and become one of the most powerful women in Nan Chu.
A strong army leads to a strong country. For Huang Zifu, Gu Lixi’s future husband is definitely a right-hand man worthy of winning over. What’s more, this general’s beloved wife is a famous fear. As long as you can establish a good relationship with Gu Lixi, will it still be a difficult task to win over the marshals of the world?
He raised his hand to cover the corner of his lips, and Huang Zifu chuckled softly, “My cousin turned his head and ignored me. Are you still blaming me for saying that your jade hairpin is not good-looking?”
When talking about the jade hairpin, Gu Lixi frowned slightly with a light eyebrows, glanced at Huang Zifu coldly, and did not answer.
Huang Zifu seemed to not see her disgust, reached out to hold her clothes, and whispered: “I just envy my sister’s jade hairpin. If you can’t eat the grapes, you’ll say that the grapes are sour. For my pitiful part now, cousin, please spare me!”
Her posture was so low that Gu Lixi was surprised. He couldn’t help but look Huang Zifu up and down, and Gu Lixi said strangely, “Did you fall into the water and get water in your head? Will you still give in to me?”
“I think you’ve just got water in your head! Yun Yi is generous and doesn’t care about you. You are still sarcastic here. Let’s see how your father punishes you when he comes back!” A gentle voice mixed with obvious anger, and a dignified and bright beautiful woman lifted the curtain and walked in.
“Auntie.” Huang Zifu subconsciously called out and was about to get up to salute.
Zhao Zhaoran hurriedly held her down and said softly, “You child, why are you polite to your aunt? You were shocked just now, just lie down.”
After saying that, he turned to Gu Lixi beside him, and Zhao Zhaoran’s gentle face showed a little anger: “How did I teach you before? You are the elder sister, and you should take good care of your younger brothers and sisters, but look at the things you do, how can you look like a sister? This is how I usually teach you how to act?”
Gu Lixi could not bear it when she was scolded by her mother in front of so many people. She immediately turned pale and her eyes were slightly red.
Huang Zifu knew when she saw this
I don’t know well, according to Gu Lixi’s temperament, if Zhao Zhaoran continued to talk, she would probably hate herself to death. This is not what she wanted to see.
Huang Zifu hurriedly held the corner of Zhao Zhaoran’s clothes and said warmly: “Auntie, don’t blame me anymore. This matter was not my cousin’s fault.”
“Good boy, I know you can’t bear to have your cousin punished, but since she did something wrong, she should bear the consequences. My Weiyuan Marquis’ Mansion will never tolerate such evil deeds!” Zhao Zhaoran patted Huang Zifu’s back of his hand.
“I naturally know that my aunt is very strict in managing the family, but I really don’t blame my cousin for this matter.” Huang Zifu roughly said the whole story, repeatedly showing that there was someone else who caused her to fall into the water, and that my cousin was just a victim.
Zhao Zhaoran felt relieved after hearing this. Just now, when the maid said that Princess Xiaocheng fell into the water, she was so scared that she was about to jump out of her heart. She just thought about how to comfort Huang Zifu, but she didn’t seriously check the whole story. If there was someone else who pushed the princess into the water, that would be great. After all, Shui Yao is her eldest daughter, so how could she really bear to bear the punishment?
Thinking of this, the smile on Zhao Zhaoran’s face became a little more sincere: “Since that’s the case, Yunyi, you have a good rest, and your aunt must give you an explanation.”
He then gave a few words from the girl who was serving around him, and Zhao Zhaoran left the greenhouse
