Chapter 203: The False Influence

Mrs. Gu’s parents belonged to the Zhang Mansion, which was owned by a governor.

The governor might not be a very powerful official title, yet they did have actual power. That was why Gu Zhenkang looked down at Mrs. Lin for being the daughter of a business family and married Mrs. Gu instead. The governor was still, after all, an official title, and Mrs. Gu was still a lady of an official family.

At The Zhang Mansion.

Mrs. Gu had been praised by the entire Zhang Mansion every time she went there in the past, but this time, she was sneered at.

Mrs. Gu used to hire her men to run those stores, but when the incidents happened to the stores, those employees ran away. Since those stores were running out of money because of her, Mrs. Gu was no longer welcomed among her family. No one was at the door greeting her.

Only the daughter-in-law Mrs. Jinzhang and Madame Zhang said hello to her, since she was her own daughter.

Mrs. Jinzhang looked down at Mrs. Gu directly. She had been flattering her in the past since The Zhang Mansion needed her help. However, now, she no longer needed to do so. She said, “Oh isn’t this my sister? What are you doing here at the mansion? Maybe you are thinking about hiring someone for the store?”

“…”

“Sister, you have been the wife of the Gu Family for so many years, but you aren’t even able to deal with the stores! Or are you trying to get us all out of your range?”

Mrs. Jinzhang was never polite. Especially because she did not like it when the Zhang Family was forced to help her out. Even Madame Zhang was not very pleased with the situation.

The Zhang Family was her parents’ home, so they were definitely supporting her. However, if she did not get her own family members to run the stores, she would not get any help from them when she needed it.

What was more. It was her parents’ family, so of course they were offering help.

Madame Zhang was not very pleased when reminded by Mrs. Jinzhang. She said with a cold face, “Cailian, honestly, if you get us to run the stores, we won’t cause you any trouble at all!”

Mrs. Gu glared at Mrs. Jinzhang.

She was not very pleased. She used to get the people from the Zhang Family to run the stores, but Madame Gu stopped her from running the stores and there was nothing she could do about it. She was already wronged, and now she was still blamed!

Especially Mrs. Jinzhang. She was so annoying! Seeing that she could not take advantage of her, that woman started to bad mouth her!

Unfortunately, Mrs. Gu was not that easy to be squeezed away.

The stores were gone, but she still had Ruxue.

Happily, she said with a small smile. “Honestly, mom, sister, don’t be so narrow-minded. Those stores are nothing!”

“…”

“Ruxue is soon marrying Lord Ling, and the whole Gu Mansion is busy helping her to get into Saint College these days. So we are not paying any attention to the stores.” Mrs. Gu said with a face of pride. She gazed at Mrs. Jinzhang’s face. Honestly, she was able to get her daughter to marry Lord Ling, whilst Mrs. Jinzhang had nothing to compete with her.

This sentence silenced Mrs. Jinzhang and Madame Zhang.

Marrying Lord Ling? Then the Gu Mansion was going to be maritaly related to Lord Ling?!

There were quite many young masters and ladies ready to get married at The Zhang Mansion, maybe…

Mrs. Jinzhang stopped her mean tone and showed a smile, asking courteously, “Sister, is that true? If that is true, Ruxue will be guaranteed complete happiness.”

“…”

“Meixiang is not a young child any more. Can’t you get Ruxue to speak with Lord Ling so that she can marry a good family too?”
