411 Did They Really Think She’s a Pushover?
Seeing this, Gu Qingxue felt very pleased. She smiled and asked the three little cubs, “Do you three like grandfather and grandmother?”
“I like them.” The three little ones said in unison.
“If you like it, you can stay here. Xue’er, you should have heard about what happened to the Gu family. I don’t think there’s a need for you to go back to a family like that. As long as you agree, I’ll immediately tell everyone that you’re my adopted daughter. I guarantee that the Gu family won’t dare to provoke you again.” When Imperial Duke Zhan mentioned the Gu family, his face showed disdain.
Seeing Imperial Duke Zhan so irascible, Madam Qiao quickly said, “Look at you, why are you always so impatient? Xue’er has just cured the plague, so many eyes are still on her, do you think it’s not enough and want to make things more difficult for her?”
Once Gu Qingxue’s identity as the adopted daughter of Imperial Duke Zhang and Madam Qiao got out, there would definitely be more people who would have their eyes on her.
This was not a good thing for Gu Qingxue.
“I understand what you mean. But the Gu family has really gone too far.” Imperial Duke Zhan’s face was cold, and he looked dissatisfied.
It was obvious that the Gu family’s actions had crossed Imperial Duke Zhan’s line.
“Father, you don’t have to be angry with those people. They’ve been unkind to me, so I naturally won’t return good for evil. At most, I won’t go back. What’s the big deal?” Gu Qingxue said disapprovingly.
She had never cared about the Gu family, nor did she care to argue with them.
“You don’t want to argue, but the Gu family may not let it go. Xue ‘er, I’ve just received news today that the Gu family has found a marriage for you. Do you know about this?” Imperial Duke Zhan looked at Gu Qingxue in confusion.
Gu Qingxue was surprised and immediately shook her head. “I didn’t know.”
Madam Qiao also looked at Imperial Duke Zhan curiously. “I didn’t know about this either, why didn’t you tell me?”
Imperial Duke Zhan felt wronged and said pitifully, ” “It’s not that I didn’t want to tell you, but you didn’t give me a chance to mention it at all. After you came back from the Gu family, you have been busy with trivial matters at home and didn’t pay attention to me at all…”
Gu Qingxue could not help but laugh and teased, “Mother, quickly coax him. Otherwise, father will lose his temper.”
Madam Qiao was helpless. She looked at Imperial Duke Zhan and smiled, “To let our daughter open her mouth to laugh at you, do you still want your old face?”
Imperial Duke Zhan did not care about his old face at all.
His wife was about to ignore him, so how could he care about his face?
“Grandfather, what do you mean? Is someone going to marry our mother?” Gu Lin immediately became alert and looked at the Duke of war with a worried expression.
Only then did Imperial Duke Zhan realize that he had forgotten to avoid telling the children. He felt that there was no way to end this. it’s the Gu family’s plan. “But don’t worry, I’ll protect your mother.”
The little ones were relieved after hearing this and continued to eat the snacks obediently, not disturbing the adults’ conversation.
Gu Qingxue laughed coldly, her tone disdainful to the extreme. “It seems that the Gu family is planning to use the same trick again.”
Previously, when Gu Qingxue was married to Dafu Village, she told the public that she was willing and had nothing to do with anyone else. In reality, her marriage had been arranged by Madam Kou.
In the end, after her husband died, Madam Kou still fantasized about using the same method to deal with her. Did they really think she was a pushover?
