Chapter 316: Chapter 316: Suffering Wife vs. Homewrecker (2) Chapter 316: Chapter 316: Suffering Wife vs. Homewrecker (2) Gu Shengyin finished reading the plot and asked the system about the current time before taking a deep breath.
Fortunately, it wasn’t time yet for the female lead, Liang Chenyu, to get married. It was the 4th year of Xiande, and Liang Chenyu had just reached the age of marriage. There was still a year before she would marry into the Prince of Zhenbei’s Mansion.
After reading the original plot, Gu Shengyin had already figured out how to deal with that pair of scum man and cheap woman.
Qin Yuanzheng? Aren’t you fond of your cousin? I will fulfill your wish, but I wonder if you’ll still be as happy when I’m willing to fulfill it?
Zhang Mingshu? Aren’t you throwing yourself headlong into the arms of your dear cousin? I want to see what makes you think that you, an orphan girl without parents, could stand your ground in a dirty place like the Prince of Zhenbei’s Mansion?
She slowly stood up, and the maid waiting outside hurried to help her with the curtains when she heard movement.
“Miss, have you woken up?”
“Mm,” Gu Shengyin answered languidly.
The gauze curtain embroidered with light-colored orchid grass was meticulously rolled up and fixed to both sides. The maid, Jian Jia, held her breath as she looked at Gu Shengyin’s face gradually being revealed.
Even though she had grown up with the young miss, she couldn’t help but blush every time she saw the young miss’s lazy appearance upon waking up.
Not overlooking the maid’s astonished gaze, Gu Shengyin thought that this Liang Chenyu must also possess an extraordinary appearance.
Indeed, the girl who appeared in the mirror was still young, yet her delicate and beautiful face was beginning to bloom, showing signs of unparalleled beauty in the future.
Was Qin Yuanzheng blind? How could he leave such a beauty alone in her room?
After washing and dressing with the maid’s assistance, Gu Shengyin, as usual, went to pay her respects to her elders.
The Elderly Lady of the Grand Tutor’s Mansion, also known as Liang Chenyu’s grandmother, the Grand Princess Ronghua, was directly related to the current Emperor and had been very close friends with the Old Prince Consort of Zhenbei back in the days.
“My dear Yuer, you finally came,” said Grand Princess Ronghua, who was nearly sixty years old but maintained herself very well, not a single white hair in her meticulously coiffed hair. She wore a set of hair adornments featuring ruby gems the size of pigeon eggs, exuding supreme dignity.
The Grand Princess Ronghua had many grandchildren, with three legitimate granddaughters alone, but only Liang Chenyu was her favorite.
Gu Shengyin blinked and snuggled into her grandmother’s embrace to act spoiled: “When has Yuer not been the first to come and greet Grandmother?”
The Grand Princess laughed, “Exactly, exactly, my Yuer is the most filial.”
The Second Miss, Liang Jinyu, had just entered and heard this, covering her mouth to laugh: “Grandmother, you have so many Yuer, but who is the most filial?”
Now the Grand Princess was genuinely amused: “You and your quick tongue. All my Yuer are the most filial.”
Everyone knew, however, that when the Grand Princess spoke of Yuer, she only meant Liang Chenyu.
As the eldest granddaughter in the Grand Tutor’s Mansion, Liang Chenyu was named Yuer at birth, and the family got used to calling her by that nickname. It was not until the second granddaughter Jinyu was born that everyone remembered that this generation of granddaughters were supposed to be named after jade. Were they all going to be called Yuer?
After some discussion, Yuer became the exclusive nickname for Liang Chenyu, and the other granddaughters were called by the second character of their names, with the Second Miss being called Jinjin, and the Fourth Miss Liang Linyu being called Linlin.
The other concubine-born daughters were not arranged according to this generational order.
This also showed the degree of favoritism Liang Chenyu enjoyed in the family.
