Gong Qingwan held the wine glass, took a sip, and said coldly, "That little bitch, did she really say that!"
So things, without needing to be hidden, naturally reach the ears of those who want to know.
The child from the Gong Family responsible for passing ssages, Gong Xinxin, looked a bit embarrassed. He awkwardly said, "That’s exactly what she said, and she even publicly referred to Aunt as ’the second wife...’"
As the words fell, Gong Qingwan nearly shattered the wine glass, wishing she could treat it as if it were Gu Tong!
The reason Gong Qingwan hurried to co first was because she thought that this inexperienced girl might make mistakes and embarrass herself when out in the world, unaware of the big family rules in Shoucheng. Unexpectedly, she was so arrogant. She was even more overbearing compared to herself!
She even dared to call her the second wife, such audacity.
Gong Xinxin pursed his lips and said, "Now, people outside are speculating whether Aunt is mistreating the Eldest Young Master Li, and the rumors are quite unpleasant. Aunt, what should we do..."
Gong Qingwan placed the wine glass on the table with a face as purple as an eggplant and said, "What else can we do!"
This damn girl forced her to this point.
Now, apart from playing a loving mother and filial son, there is no other way.
It just so happens that they can take advantage of the Zhao Family banquet to clear her na, making all the little bitch’s words break on their own accord.
Gong Qingwan gritted her teeth and said, "Later, bring Li Yan here. I’ll introduce him to other family mbers, let him get acquainted!"
Reluctant to give up a child for a catch; in fact, Gong Qingwan never intended to let Li Yan get acquainted with the renowned families in Shoucheng.
However, driven by reputation, she had no choice but to do so.
Gong Xinxin was startled and said, "Letting that bastard recognize family mbers, isn’t it giving him too much credit..."
Gong Qingwan frowned and said, "He holds the position of the Eldest Young Master of the Li Family, sooner or later he has to get acquainted, now let’s see if recognition will be of any use."
Family mbers recognizing each other is a matter of ti, whether at the birthdays of elders or important festivals, families gather together, and recognizing the Eldest Young Master of the Li Family is inevitable.
Now that Li Yan has entered the family, even if he doesn’t know these things now, he will know them eventually in the future.
Since he will have to know these things sooner or later, it’s better for Gong Qingwan to go with the flow and gain the reputation of a virtuous stepmother.
Gong Xinxin suddenly understood the reasoning behind it and said, "I’ll go right away."
With that, he sprinted over, afraid of delaying his aunt’s important matters.
It has to be said, Gong Qingwan indeed has her controlling hand stretching far, the Li Family, the Gong Family, the Chu Family, all are in her grasp.
...
Gong Xinxin’s arrival.
Gu Tong was not surprised by it; she and Li Yan had anticipated this matter early on.
They just didn’t expect Gong Qingwan to be so urgent, clearly, she was hit where it hurts.
Of course, it might also be that her reputation has always been good, and suddenly getting a blemish was sothing she couldn’t accept.
Li Yan mingling with family mbers was already part of the plan, so Gong Qingwan’s supposedly clever strategy fit right into their plan, why not take advantage of it.
Gu Tong wandered leisurely in the banquet hall, and after a roundabout, suddenly felt soone tap her.
Bai Yingqing smiled brightly and said, "I’ve been looking for you everywhere."
Seeing an acquaintance, Gu Tong smiled and said, "I thought you drank too much yesterday, and couldn’t get up today."
At this, Bai Yingqing pouted and said, "You said it, yesterday, the butler nagged all night, almost couldn’t attend Mrs. Zhao’s banquet, bowl after bowl of sobering soup stuffed into , my stomach was bloated."
