MTL - On the Day the Scumbag Got Married, I Lay Flat and Became His Sister-in-law-Chapter 245 confrontation
Chapter 245 Confrontation
The first time they saw Gu Xiyan today, everyone had to admit that no matter her appearance or temperament, Gu Xiyan was unique in this capital.
Even if the number one beauty in the capital returns to the capital, she may not be able to gain an advantage in front of Gu Xiyan.
Who said that Gu Xiyan is a down and out lady? Seeing that people's gestures are noble and elegant, they are no less than the nobles in the palace.
Gu Xiyan attracted the attention of everyone present, so no one paid attention to Liu Chaoyan and Liu Junyan.
The sisters of the Liu family knew that it was not good when they saw Gu Xiyan's outfit in the Hou Mansion. Seeing Gu Xiyan's stunning looks at this moment made everyone feel even colder.
How else can I say that Gu Xiyan is a scheming person? Knowing that this was the first tea party held by Princess Duanqing in five years, she deliberately chose this attractive outfit to show up, obviously coming prepared.
The sisters of the Liu family indeed guessed right.
Gu Xiyan knew that this was the first time she had shown her face in the high-class circle of ladies after she and Zhou Mu got engaged. She was Zhou Mu's future wife, so naturally she couldn't embarrass Zhou Mu.
She wants to attract the attention of noble ladies, and moreover, she wants to make her mark in this circle.
So far, it is considered a success.
Not long after, someone came over and asked her where the cloak was made.
At this time, Xu Zhener also came to his senses, and came up to ask the same question.
Gu Xiyan said generously: "It's a new style made by the Su family clothing store."
Su He is in charge of the Su Family Silk and Satin Shop, and Su Mei is in charge of the Su Family Clothing Shop. Of course, she introduces Su Mei if there is any business.
As for this cloak, it was a style she had seen in her previous life. On an occasion like today, she wanted everyone to remember her, so she naturally had to work **** her clothes, so she asked Su Mei to help her make this cloak temporarily.
"Sister Xiyan's cloak is so beautiful, the details are amazing, I want to make one too." Xu Zhen'er made no secret of her liking for this cloak.
Xu Zhen'er is very popular in the circle of noble women. Seeing that she was talking and laughing with Gu Xiyan, everyone gathered around her.
Gu Xiyan speaks generously and is friendly. Although she is very beautiful, she is not aggressive, and soon attracts the favor of some noble women.
Of course, there are some noble ladies who are close to Liu Chaoyan who can't bear Gu Xiyan's way of calling friends.
Chi Zao spent 50,000 taels because of going against Gu Xiyan last time, and it still hurts so far. Seeing Gu Xiyan right now, he can't breathe very well.
Another person who got close to Liu Chaoyan happened to be Mai Zi, the third girl from the Hubu Shangshu's residence. Seeing this scene, she felt very unhappy.
She also heard about the engagement between Gu Xiyan and Zhou Mu, the right servant of the household department, and she didn't know what face Gu Xiyan had to show off. Could it be that she couldn't wait to come out to show off just because someone wanted her again?
Looking at Liu Chao's haggard look, it is nothing more than the fact that His Royal Highness King Qin was grounded.
She heard from Liu Chaoyan that the reason His Royal Highness King Qin was grounded was also related to Gu Xiyan.
"Chao Yan, you wait, I will vent your anger!"
As Mai Zi spoke, she wanted to show off Gu Xiyan, but Liu Chaoyan stopped her and said, "Ah Zi, don't get angry with my elder sister for me. My eldest sister is proud of her spring and can speak well. I'm afraid you will suffer in her hands."
Chi Zao also echoed: "Yes, I have seen how powerful she is. I am not her opponent, you will only be ridiculed by her..."
"That's not necessarily the case. My father is the Minister of the Household Department, and is the top leader of Mr. Zhou. Gu Xiyan dares to offend me casually?" Mai Zi sneered.
Chi Zao and Liu Chaoyan glanced at each other, only to remember that there was still this problem.
"But it's not worth it for my big sister and me." Liu Chaoyan was chuckling inwardly, but she still pretended to dissuade her.
"Don't worry, no one in this world who can make me suffer has not yet been born, and I will see you later." Mai Zi said, and then went to Gu Xiyan's encirclement.
Gu Xiyan and a group of noble ladies were chatting about how to dress, and at the moment when it was lively, Mai Zi came.
Gu Xiyan seldom attended gatherings before, she couldn't recognize everyone, and she didn't know Mai Zi either.
Seeing her like this, Xu Zhen'er knew that she didn't know Mai Zi's origin, so she whispered in her ear: "Her name is Mai Zi, and she is the youngest daughter of the Minister of Household Affairs. They had several sons, but no daughters until Mai Zi was born. Mrs. Mai has a daughter when she is old, so she loves her dearly."
Gu Xiyan instantly understood why Mai Zi came to her with such arrogance, it was because her father was Zhou Mu's superior.
Mai Zi's sudden arrival made the lively scene suddenly quiet.
There is a small circle around Liu Chaoyan, and Liu Chaoyan plays well with them, they are all rich and powerful families. Whether it's Chi Zao, Mai Zi, or Wang Yuying from Cao Guogong's mansion, they all come from prominent backgrounds.
As for those who were not so distinguished, Liu Chaoyan looked down on them, and naturally they were excluded from the small circle.
And these people have some friendship with Xu Zhener, and Xu Zhener likes Gu Xiyan, so everyone unconsciously stands in Gu Xiyan's camp.
Now they also want to see how Gu Xiyan will react to Mai Zi's difficulties.
This group of people have been bitter about these noble girls for a long time, but no one dares to offend them easily, so I don't know how Gu Xiyan will respond.
Because there is a good show to watch, everyone is inexplicably excited.
Gu Xiyan didn't know that everyone was waiting to see a good show, at this time Xu Zhen'er whispered in her ear again: "This girl is hot!"
Gu Xiyan realized that the noble girls around her seemed a little excited, so that she was a little distracted and didn't hear what Mai Zi said in the first sentence.
"Do you have a mouth disease?!" Seeing that Gu Xiyan was silent, Mai Zi's voice suddenly increased.
Gu Xiyan looked directly at Mai Zi indifferently, but still did not speak.
Under Gu Xiyan's gaze, Mai Zi had the illusion that she was making trouble for no reason.
She suddenly became angry from embarrassment, "What are you looking at, do you still have eye problems?!"
Gu Xiyan glanced at Mai Zi lightly, ignored Mai Zi directly, and turned to Xu Zhen'er and said: "Someone is very noisy, let's talk over there."
Mai Zi has never been so blinded by anyone before, she rushed forward to block Gu Xiyan's way: "Gu Xiyan, who are you talking about making noise?"
Gu Xiyan was really speechless.
The so-called bird of a feather flocks together is really not empty talk. Like Liu Chaoyan, Mai Zi is very self-righteous.
"I don't know you before, but you keep chattering in front of me. It's a fact that I think you're noisy. Why, there are regulations in the Jin Dynasty that people should not tell the truth?!" Gu Xiyan asked.
Mai Zi was always eloquent, but this time she was blocked by Gu Xiyan's words.
"Today you met me for the first time, and you opened your mouth and said that I have mouth and ear problems. How dare you ask this is your Mai family's tutor?!" Gu Xiyan asked again.
Mai Zi felt like she was slapped hard by Gu Xiyan in public, her face was in hot pain.
