The Legitimate Miss Returns With Honor - C63 Monthly

Su Ju grew anxious and said, “How is that possible? There are obviously more other courtyards than this one!”

“That’s none of your business. Our Gu Residence only gets this much every month!” That mama didn’t wait for her to finish before she interrupted with a sneer.

Susu was so angry that she was about to cry. Gu Jinzhu, who was in the room, heard the argument and came out with Yun Xiang to take a look. After glancing at the menu in her hands, she immediately understood.

When the mama saw her, she immediately slapped her thigh and called out, “Eldest Miss, look at this Susu Ju. Our girls only have a few hundred coins a month. Since both of these girls are by your side, why is it so rare for you to hang her?” “One shouldn’t be so greedy, right?”

Gu Jinzhu didn’t pay attention to her words. Her gaze was like a glacier descending from the night sky, completely unperturbed, “I only ask you one question, what’s the number of the big girls by Second Miss’ side?”

“The few ladies by Second Young Miss’s side are worth one tael each month, but you can’t compare. Second Young Miss’s status in the estate is different because she’s been valued by esteemed wangfei. The madame personally gave the order that Second Young Miss’s food and clothing is different from the others’.”

She spoke with a profound tone as she looked at Gu Jinzhu with a trace of ridicule on her face.

Gu Jinzhu nodded and said, “I understand. Thank you, mama.” Magpie, send mama out. ”

After sending the few of them away, Su Ju looked at the things spread out in the courtyard, and her tears rolled down her cheeks in anger.

Not only was the monthly allowance for the servants reduced by half, but even Gu Jinzhu’s dressing speed had been reduced by half. Ever since she returned to the clan, she hadn’t cut a single new set of clothes.

The materials that were delivered this time were all rather old and not new. Some were dull in colour, some were jewellery with hairpins, rouge and powder. They were all extremely crude and no one would care about them even if they were a reward.

“Miss, they are really going too far!” Su Ju said hatefully.

This madam didn’t even care about her appearance anymore. She was treating her daughter harshly and wasn’t afraid of being poked in the spine when she went out.

However, Gu Jinzhu didn’t seem to mind in the slightest as she lightly said, “Alright, let’s put this thing away first.”

She turned and entered the house, with Fragrance behind her.

The window in the room was opened, and a breeze blew through the dark green curtain, causing the bead curtain to rustle.

She stood by the window, practicing her calligraphy. Her expression was extremely calm, as if what had just happened hadn’t affected her mood in the slightest.

Yun Xiang could not help but ask, “Miss, aren’t you angry? If Madame continues to defy you by allowing her to go down, who knows what else she will do. ”

Gu Jinzhu sighed lightly, “So what if you’re angry? What’s the use of me arguing with her now? ”

When a person was under a roof, they had to lower their head. This was something she had long since understood.

How could Yun Xiang not know about this? She just couldn’t take it anymore. Ever since her young mistress came back, she had been bullied by Lady Yao every day. If she continued like this, her days would only get worse.

She looked at the little miss, who was holding a purple tube wolf brush pen and writing a few words over and over. She looked carefully and her eyes suddenly lit up.

Astonishingly, there was only one word written on each piece of paper: “Wait!”

Yun Xiang thought for a moment, then blurted out, “Could it be that Miss wants to wait for San Ye’s return?”

She understood what the young lady was thinking and agreed, “The young lady is right. We have nothing to rely on right now, so we can’t do anything. We can only wait until San Ye returns. He will definitely help the young lady.”

This girl seemed to have found a backbone all of a sudden. Her face was filled with joy.

However, he didn’t notice that when his master heard her mention the two words “Master San”, his face fell into a daze.

She held the pen until a drop of thick ink dripped from the tip and soaked the entire piece of paper. Only then did she regain her senses, and she could not help but bitterly smile in her heart.

What she meant by “waiting” was that she wanted to wait for a good time, not for him to come back.

When she thought of that person, her thoughts drifted a little further away. She didn’t know that he was over there. Are you safe?

He had already helped her a lot. So what if he came back? There was a difference inside and outside, so how could he meddle in the affairs of the inner chamber? This girl was thinking too simply.

Since they didn’t have much use for it, they naturally had to conserve their food.

Not only did Lady Yao reduce the little girl’s speed, even her monthly rate was reduced by half.

Miss Gu’s monthly allowance was four taels of silver, but she only had two taels. Her clothes were all cut in half, and her food was even worse than her daily allowance.

It didn’t matter much if it was the fragrant rosewood. In the end, she was still his girl. However, the most dissatisfied ones were the magpie and the seven concubines. Even Lady Wang didn’t do things properly.

Gu Jinzhu had gone to the Yanfu Residence to pay her respects today. As soon as she entered the courtyard, she saw Magpie and Qiqiao chatting in a corner.

Magpie looked resentful. “What’s the point of having so little money?” He couldn’t even afford rouge powder! Didn’t you see how I was made a joke by the people in the yard next to me when I first left? We are really down on our luck, why did we have to follow such a master, even losing to a third-rate girl in the yard of the second young miss! ”

“Be quiet and don’t let anyone hear you.”

Gu Jinzhu and Yun Xiang’s figures were covered by a large tree, so the two people who spoke didn’t see them. The magpie sneered, “So what if I do?” If you have the ability, then chase us out. It’s still better than hanging here and dying! ”

Yun Xiang’s expression changed. Just as she was about to go over, she saw Su Ju suddenly rush out from a nearby eardrum, arriving in front of the magpie and slapping her without a second word.

“You don’t know what’s good for you. Behind your back is Miss Chew’s tongue. The Second Miss is so good, why don’t you immediately scram!” Su Ju was so angry that her face turned ashen, and her chest rose and fell continuously.

Her scalding wound on her abdomen hadn’t completely healed yet. Usually, she would lie down on the bed to rest. Today, hearing Magpie’s words, she really couldn’t help it anymore.

The magpie was struck senseless by her slap, and when he recovered his senses, he immediately exploded into rage. He covered his face and cursed loudly, “Who the hell do you think you are, daring to hit me?” “I’ll fight you to the death.”

She suddenly lowered her head and rammed it into her stomach.

Su Ju was caught off guard and was knocked to the ground. Her wounds had not been healed in the first place, so after being hit by the impact, her face was pale from the pain.

The magpie didn’t give up. He loudly cursed and wanted to rush over, but the expressions on Yun Xiang and Gu Jinzhu’s faces both changed.

Gu Jinzhu shouted, “Stop!” Yun Xiang came out from behind the tree and quickly ran out to support Su Ju.

The moment the magpie and the girl saw Gu Jinzhu, they were immediately scared out of their wits. The girl immediately bowed and said, “Eldest Miss, you’re back.”

Seeing Qi Qiao give her a look, he suddenly reacted and kneeled down towards Gu Jinzhu with a ‘putong’. Tears streaming down his face, he said, “Eldest Miss, you’ve come back. You have to avenge your servant. Your servant offended Big Sister Su Ju somewhere, and she beat her up and scolded her.”
