The Epic Revenge

Chapter 30 - Stepmother\\\'s Concealment



Mu Sanniang has two daughters and three sons, and they all like Gu Qingzhou, especially Mu Sanniang’s eldest daughter He Wei, her elder sister is long and her sister is short, which makes Gu Qingzhou feel the warmth of the family.

He Wei was thirteen years old, with a kind of precocious restraint on her young face. She said to Gu Qingzhou, “I was the eldest sister since I was a child, and I always love my younger brothers and sisters. Now I have a sister who loves me.”

She relies on Gu Qingzhou.

Gu Qingzhou felt at ease.

Every time I go to the He family, I am in a very good mood, but unfortunately I can’t celebrate the New Year with the He family.

When leaving from the He’s house, Gu Qingzhou stopped when he saw the newly recruited guy from the He’s family repairing the table in the lobby.

He Wei whispered to Gu Qingzhou: “Amu is so good-looking, tall, with broad shoulders, he can eat anything and everything, but he is actually a guy, tired and bitter.”

After thinking about it, he shook his head regretfully, and said in the tone of a little adult, “It’s a pity he’s a mute…”

Amu, it was the name that the He family gave to this guy. I couldn’t find out what the guy’s real name was.

Amu is very diligent and works hard without complaining about hard work. The shopkeeper He likes him very much. Mu Sanniang and the children think he is good, but it is a pity that he is dumb.

“He’s not born dumb.” Gu Qingzhou smiled, “Maybe he’s sick?”

Amu could hear it, but as if he hadn’t heard it, he continued to knock on the legs of his table with an indifferent attitude.

“My dad said that he has aphonia, but Amu doesn’t want to let my dad take the pulse. I don’t know what his illness is.” He Wei said.

Gu Qingzhou nodded, looked back at Amu again, and knew it.

Then until New Year’s Eve, Gu Qingzhou didn’t go out.

The atmosphere at home is weird.

Gu Guizhang was very annoyed with Qin Zhengzheng and his daughters before, but he later met the commander and had a good talk with the commander, vaguely really wanting to be in-law, and he became proud again.

As soon as he was proud, he forgot all the troubles Qin Zhengzheng and Gu Xiang caused him.

After all, they are a family, Gu Guizhang still loves Gu Zhang very much, and also has feelings for Qin Zhengzheng.

Qin Zhengzheng overwhelmed the west wind again, and Gu Guizhang moved back from the third concubine’s room to Qin Zhengzheng’s room.

Gu Zhang, Gu Wei, and Gu Ying made cheongsams, and Qin Zhengzheng also made two sets of quilted cheongsam for Gu Qingzhou, bought a medium mink coat and two waistcoats to wear during the Spring Festival in the old calendar year.

“My wife is really stingy.” The third aunt sneered, “They have all the boxes and cabinets full, so I just bought these clothes to send you.”

“I don’t care, I brought clothes from the countryside.” Gu Qingzhou smiled.

The third concubine was not angry.

So the third concubine blew the pillow wind to Gu Guizhang and asked Gu Guizhang to take out a sum of money to add clothes to Gu Qingzhou.

“Qingzhou is the fiancée of Young Marshal Si. She is dressed in shabby clothes. I’m afraid the commander-in-chief will be unhappy when she hears it. During the Chinese New Year, when you visit relatives and friends, how many eyes do you watch.” The third wife sat in Gu Guizhang’s arms and said.

Gu Guizhang squeezed the soft flesh on the chest of the third concubine, and said, “It’s still you who are sensible. I’ll give you one hundred yuan, and you can buy some for Qingzhou.”

The third concubine said yes, she whispered softly under Gu Guizhang, which made Gu Guizhang’s heart skip a beat, and immediately pushed her down on the desk, making a violent **.

On New Year’s Eve, after everyone had a reunion dinner, Gu Guizhang found Gu Qingzhou alone and asked Gu Qingzhou to go to the study.

“I talked to the Overseer. The young marshal is still abroad and plans to return to China in the next year. It would be boring to stay in the past two years. Why don’t you go to school.” Gu Guizhang said.

Gu Qingzhou lowered his eyes.

She also plans to wait until the new year to speak – she naturally wants to go to school, preferably a noble girls’ school, so that she can get to know her classmates and network connections.

Li Ma repeatedly said that connections are the most valuable asset.

Unexpectedly, the commander-in-chief thought about it for her.

Gu Qingzhou felt a little sad in his heart: the commander-in-chief didn’t know the truth, and he really hurt her like a daughter. Gu Qingzhou grew up so big, and the first time he felt his father’s love, it was actually from the commander-in-chief.

Her gloomy eyes were restrained, her emotions were not revealed, she quietly listened to Gu Guizhang, and then replied: “Okay.”

“St. Mary’s Church Middle School is very good. Your sister graduated there. Your two younger sisters are studying there now. The nuns there taught us that we are familiar with each other and can transfer you to the upper grades.” Gu Guizhang said.

St. Mary’s is the best aristocratic girls’ school in Yuecheng. It is run by a Christian church. Gu Qingzhou has already inquired about it. The subjects include English, Chinese, the Bible, arithmetic, home economics, piano and dance.

Some subjects, when Gu Qingzhou was in the countryside, Zhang Chuchu taught her, and Zhang Chuchu also graduated from a similar church for women’s aristocratic schools.

Gu Qingzhou is a bit basic, and he will not be stage fright when he is transferred to the senior grade.

The Gu family didn’t have the capital to transfer to the senior year, and what Gu Guizhang showed off was nothing more than the favor of the commander-in-chief.

“…Yes.” Gu Qingzhou responded again.

She was obedient and well-behaved, and Gu Guizhang was very satisfied.

“St. Mary’s School doesn’t start until the second day of the second month of February. There is still a month left for your sister to make up for you.” Gu Guizhang said.

Gu Qingzhou smiled: “There are many social events in the first month. My sister has graduated now, and I can only look forward to the lively first month of the year. How can I disturb her? Why don’t you hire a tutor.”

Gu Guizhang hesitated for the price of the tutor.

Then, he thought that this daughter would help him achieve success in the future, and these investments were essential.

Gu Xiang and Gu Qingzhou had a holiday, and asked Gu Xiang to teach Gu Qingzhou, Gu Zhang must not be attentive, it is best to ask a tutor.

Gu Guizhang nodded: “We’ll talk about it after the new year.”

Immediately, Gu Guizhang told Qin Zhengzheng about this.

“…Don’t add new clothes during the Spring Festival. We can only hold two banquets. The tuition fees for studying in the boat and asking for tutoring are a lot of money. We need to be more frugal.” Gu Guizhang informed Qin Zhengzheng. .

Qin Zhengzheng was stunned.

In the soft and cold light of the crystal lamp, Qin Zhengzheng’s expression was solemn and gloomy.

“Yes, sir.” She replied, but her heart was full of anger.

During the Spring Festival, all major department stores are going to be refurbished. Ladies of relatives and friends, inviting brand friends to go shopping is bound to be a comparison. Buying furs and making cheongsams is indispensable.

If she doesn’t add new clothes, what face will Qin Zhengzheng have to stand in her noble circle in the future? Others don’t think she is poor, they just think she has no status at home.

As for the banquets in the first month, Qin Zhengzheng has already set five banquets, which can not be saved any more. Now that she has to cut three games, how do her ladies and poker friends talk about her?

Qin Zhengzheng learned the lesson not long ago, and did not dare to contradict Gu Guizhang, but he hated it very much.

The source of hatred is Gu Qingzhou, who needs money to study and ask for a tutor.

“Missing books? I think you’d better save your money. The family doesn’t have any spare money to support you!” Qin Zhengzheng thought coldly.

Their mother and daughter ask for money to hold a banquet and buy new clothes, which is the pomp of their ladies and gentlemen.

These pomp and circumstance are dignity.

Without money, there is no dignity, and Gu Qingzhou’s misappropriation of this money to go to school is trampling on the dignity of Qin Zhengzheng’s mother and daughter.

Qin Zhengzheng couldn’t agree, she already had an idea to make Gu Qingzhou unable to read this book.

However, Qin Zhengzheng didn’t reveal a single point, and happily announced Gu Guizhang’s decision.

No new clothes, only two banquets, this news was like a bolt from the blue, and all three sisters Gu Zhang were stunned.
