Chapter 666 - 677: The Gossip Brought by Xie Qinyun
She had thought that she and Lin Qianqing were already unlike any of Beijing’s young ladies, yet she didn’t know that there was someone as peculiar as Gu Youyou in the world.
Gu Youyou said with a light smile, "Miss Xie, don’t mind me, I just feel that since I saved its life and raised it, and it once saved my life, Abao is like family to me. This dog has one characteristic, that is its absolute loyalty to its owner, which is incomparable to humans."
Gu Youyou’s words struck her, and Xie Qinyun murmured softly, "More loyal than humans, and less fickle. Yes, indeed, this dog is better than some people."
Thinking of her second brother standing at the door, she suddenly laughed. "Let me tell you about the Du Family’s concubine, it will amuse everyone."
She knew she was going to talk about these things.
"Hmm, go on!"
Gu Youyou arranged the tea and fruit as the three women gathered around to discuss other people’s gossip.
"After Miss Du left, there was no peace at home. The issue of the concubine pushing Miss Du into the lotus pond wasn’t resolved yet, and shamelessly, she actually asked my second brother to make her the first wife. When my second brother ignored her and persisted in bringing up the incident with Miss Du, she got so angry that she took it out on the people around her.
Her maid Dongmei, who said something unpleasant while advising her, was beaten by her until she lost two front teeth and was left deaf in one ear.
This maid came with her from the Du Family and was wholeheartedly devoted to her. Such a beating was truly heartbreaking.
She even squawked about selling the maid, specifically sending her off to that despicable Flower Pavilion. Just look at what kind of person she is."
