Chapter 190 Unwilling
190 Unwilling
Gu Yanfei stared at Gu Yunzhen for a long time and noticed the subtle change in her expression.
Gu Yunzhen retracted her gaze from the cat and met Gu Yanfei’s clear pupils. There was a gentle smile on her beautiful face.
She picked up her teacup and took another sip before saying calmly, “My father is a concubine’s son in the Marquis Mansion. Apart from my mother, he has a concubine and two concubines by his side.”
“That’s it.” Her red lips curled up slightly as she smiled at Gu Yanfei with a serious expression on her pearl-like face. “Everyone says that my father has peace and quiet around him. They all praise my mother for her good fortune.”
“Also, do you know how many concubines Second Uncle has?”
The Second Uncle Gu Yunzhen was talking about was naturally the Marquis of Dingyuan, Gu Jian.
“…” Gu Yanfei shook her head silently.
How could she know? She only knew two aunts with children from the second branch.
Gu Yunzhen raised four fingers at her.
He also had concubines.
Gu Yanfei had yet to reach marriageable age. Gu Yunzhen actually did not want to dirty her sister’s ears by saying these things, but Gu Yanfei was already at the age to talk about marriage. However, her mother was no longer around, and her grandmother would definitely not tell her these things from the bottom of her heart.
She was the eldest sister, and the eldest sister was like a mother who should take care of her sister.
Just as her mother had said, a girl had to get married eventually. Before she got married, she was a precious daughter at home. When she got married in the future, she would have to face the scheming of her husband’s family. She would have to be filial to her in-laws and take care of the house…
Gu Yunzhen clenched the handkerchief in her hand tightly. Her slender fingers straightened as she continued rationally, “In this huge capital, almost every family has concubines.”
“It’s the way of the world.”
She wasn’t complaining about anything. She was just rationally stating the current situation as a fact, without any criticism.
The golden morning light shone from the window on the side of Gu Yunzhen’s face. The sunlight and tree shadows gently brushed her slightly furrowed eyebrows.
“Big Sister, are you willing?” Gu Yanfei reached out and hooked Gu Yunzhen’s ring finger.
Gu Yunzhen did not answer. Her eyes lowered again, and she slowly raised her hand to take the teacup.
Ever since her father pa.s.sed away, the third branch no longer had a man who could support the family. They were also marginalized at the Marquis Mansion. Moreover, the third branch was a concubine’s branch.
It was Madam’s intention to let her bring joy by getting married.
If she did not marry, Mother’s life in the Marquis Mansion would probably not be easy in the future…
“Meow, meow, meow—”
Outside the window, the kitten meowed happily again. The cat was enjoying itself, free and easy. Suddenly, it flew onto a plum tree, but its claws did not tighten. Its body slid down again, its sharp claws leaving long scratches on the trunk.
Gu Yunzhen could not help but smile. Her beautiful eyes curved, and her eyebrows relaxed.
Scenes of her father carrying her to build a snowman and break plum blossoms appeared in her mind.
Gu Yanfei held Gu Yunzhen’s hand and said gently, “As long as Big Sister is unwilling, don’t marry him.”
She smiled with a moon-white indifference. There was a faint freedom between her eyebrows, an arrogance that ignored rules and etiquette.
Gu Yunzhen looked at Gu Yanfei’s exquisite and beautiful face and was in a daze for a moment. Then, she smiled.
She raised her hand and gently stroked the top of Gu Yanfei’s head. Her smile was gentle as she said solemnly, “In the future, let Big Brother choose your marriage for you. Don’t let Grandma interfere…”
Gu Yunzhen was as clear as a mirror. She had long understood and thought it through.
Their grandmother only cared about the future of the Marquis Mansion and only wanted to pave the way for the Marquis Mansion and Gu Yunrong. The marriage of their grandchildren would only become a bargaining chip in their grandmother’s hands.
Gu Yunzhen’s expression was calm as she said in a low voice, “Even if the other party’s family background isn’t that high, it’s fine as long as they’re good.”
Get married. Gu Yanfei sighed silently in her heart. Her expression was neither expectant nor disgusted.
In her previous life, she was just cannon fodder. For no reason, she was involved in the jealousy between Gu Yunrong, Fang Mingfeng, and Chu You. For some reason, she became known as someone who had broken off the engagement.
Later, she pa.s.sed away early and never discussed marriage again before she died.
It had only been more than two months since she returned to this small world. She had never realized that she needed to “get married” too.
