Military Marriage: Boss, my sister-in-law got beaten up again

Chapter 1144 Relaxing Your Vigilance

The title of county lord was obtained too easily.

Many people are polite on the surface, but they look down on her in private.

Miss Chen took the lead in losing face for her, and Gu Yao's maid even beat Miss Chen's maid.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows who to favor.

"Let's go and have a rest. I'll come out when the wife of the Marquis's Mansion meets with everyone." Gu Yao had thought about making friends with more people.

People are selfish, especially those in high positions.

All the ladies and madams act like they are the most awesome women in the world, and they just look down on her, a peasant girl from the countryside. What can she do?

Gu Yao also wanted to be a doctor, but the status of a doctor was low in ancient times.

The last time I went to the princess's clinic, his attitude towards women was not good.

Not to mention she's a female doctor.

Her current identity as the Lady of Mingyang County is already very good.

Using this identity, she made pills at home and resold them on the black market. The special pills were so effective.

From now on, her medicine will only remain on the black market.

Her merits are also increasing.

Gu Yao followed the maid to the guest house without any burden.

Gu Yao felt like she had been walking for a long time.

Qiuqiu looked around nervously but didn't find anything unusual.

Gu Yao looked at the ball and nodded.

She didn't see anything wrong either.

She was more sensitive in the quiet environment of the night. During the day, during the flower-viewing party, she could see groups of young ladies talking together from afar.

She doesn't have the clear perception of an internal martial arts master like Qiuqiu.

Gu Yao's talent is still a bit useless.

"This is really not close! The Marquis's Mansion is so big." Gu Yao said with emotion.

When the little maid heard this, she couldn't help but straighten her chest and said, "What Lady Mingyang said is really right. Our mansion is the Third Prince's in-laws, so it is naturally big. But the guest rooms will be here soon, don't worry."

"Well, it really is worthy of being a marquis' mansion. It's so big and rich." Gu Yao laughed.

"This house was a reward from the emperor, so shouldn't it be big?" The little maid thought that Lady Mingyang was really short-sighted.

I heard that the house of Lady Mingyang is very small, just a house with only one entrance, and there are not many people to serve her at home, so it is normal to be envious.

Gu Yao didn't say anything.

Qiuqiu said, "You are really honest, little maid. The Marquis's Mansion is really extraordinary because of its wealth and power. The guest rooms are so far away. It seems that there are many people coming this time."

Gu Yao pricked up her ears and listened.

"That's right. Several princes and the little princess in the palace will come, as well as the ministers' families. There will be quite a lot of people coming this time. The location of this courtyard is a bit remote. Princess Mingyang, please bear with me. The house is too big. Haha..."

The little maid said with a smile.

Gu Yao walked for about a quarter of an hour before she stopped at the gate of a small courtyard.

Gu Yao stopped. The yard looked as if it had just been cleaned up not long ago. The door knocker on the gate was already rusty, but the lock was new.

It seems that there are quite a lot of people coming this time. Compared with the prince and princess, she, the county lord, is just a scumbag.

Gu Yao smiled. They were nobles who all wanted to save face. Since they had invited her, the Marquis' Mansion should not do anything dirty.

Gu Yao arrived at the yard and saw nothing unusual. Qiuqiu nodded.

After the maid opened the door of the main room, she poured a glass of water for Gu Yao: "Mingyang County Lady, you can take a rest. There is warm water in this pot. There is a stove in the tea room that can be used to boil water. It will take about half an hour for the wives of the Marquis' Mansion to come out to receive guests. You can take a short rest. Just watch the time pass. If you need anything, you can always find the maid outside to serve you."

The little maidservant kept smiling as she spoke and then bowed and retreated.

"Reward." Gu Yao is rich and not stingy. It must be tiring for this little maid to follow him for such a long time and introduce him to everyone one by one.

Qiuqiu took out a small bag of silver coins and stuffed it into the maid's hand.

After the little maid received the purse, it felt heavy on her hand.

She was extremely happy and there was no other expression on her face.

After the little maid left, she did not notice any danger.

Gu Yao smelled the sandalwood, and it was normal sandalwood, nothing wrong with it.

"Miss, everything is normal and no danger was found." Qiuqiu felt relieved after the inspection.

Their young lady has made too many enemies and has also cut off one source of income for the Marquis's Mansion.

Giving the most profitable business of the Tan family to the emperor, how could this not arouse hatred?

"I was overthinking. It seems they don't want to start a fight here. I, your young lady, will take a rest first. I am really early. You must not come so early to attend a banquet in the future. This is a good time to catch up on some sleep. You just go out and watch over them." Gu Yao lay on the bed and soon fell asleep.

Gu Yao slept with her clothes on, just taking a short nap.

Gu Yao slept for about quarter of an hour and then woke up naturally.

Qiuqiu heard the noise of someone getting up inside, so she pushed the door open and went into the inner room: "Miss, you are awake, I will bring you some water to wash up."

"Is it time?" Gu Yao rubbed her eyes and looked at Qiuqiu.

"Miss, it's almost time. There are still fifteen minutes left. It's just right for you to go over after you wash up." Qiuqiu brought the water and put it on the rack, and helped the lady wash up.

Gu Yao washed her hands, looked at her makeup in the bronze mirror, and asked Qiuqiu to help her touch up her makeup.

She walked with a smile on her face towards the flower hall in the backyard where the wife of the Marquis was entertaining.

When he arrived, he found that many people were already surrounding the Marquis's wife and talking and laughing.

The corners of Gu Yao's mouth twitched. She was still tricked.

The little maid who led the way must have gotten the time wrong.

Some people started to speak in a sarcastic manner when they saw Gu Yao coming.

"Oh, what time is it now. Princess Mingyang came so late, someone who didn't know you would think you were the protagonist today." Miss Chen had a smile on her face, as if nothing had happened.

"Hey, this Miss Chen. Why is she so strange? It's not like her style. Although her words are a little weird, she must be a scheming person to be able to suppress her temper like this. Is she holding back something good?"

"Greetings, Madam Hou." Gu Yao bowed to Madam Hou.

"What Lady Mingyang said is nonsense. It will be the same even if you come at mealtime. No matter when you come, we welcome you to our mansion." The Marquis's wife looked at Gu Yao and said with a smile.

"Ah, you are the Lady Mingyang? I heard that the recent rush to collect manure outside was actually caused by you. It stinks." This is the face of an unfamiliar woman.

Gu Yao was sure that she had never seen it before.

When the others heard this, they were very angry. She was already a county lady, but she actually did such a dirty thing.
