Rebirth: Return to Houfu

Chapter 26

Gu Fangling received a gift.It was a very special gift, it should not have been sent by someone sent by Wei Qingmo.Unfortunately, that's how it happened.

Rubbing the jade gourd in her hand, Gu Fangling felt inexplicably ridiculous.So Gu Fangyao snatched the jade gourd from her just to show favor to His Highness the Crown Prince?
Pursing her lips, an imperceptible coldness slid across Gu Fangling's face.Since Gu Fangyao Baba brought the handle to her, she is not polite.

"I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent someone to deliver a gift box to the second girl today?" After the day of the horse race, Su's attitude towards Gu Fangling completely changed, and he became a little more vigilant and...cautious in his words and deeds.

"Yes." Gu Fangling nodded, and pointed to the jade gourd on her waist, "This is it."

"What?" Looking at Gu Fangling's jade gourd in disbelief, Su's face turned cold, "What's going on here?"

The jade gourd is a keepsake that symbolizes the eldest daughter of Gu Hou's mansion, how could it fall into the hands of His Highness the Crown Prince?Su Clan got angry, but she didn't go towards Gu Fangling.Gu Fangyao snatched the jade gourd, and the Su family was also well aware of it.

No matter how careless Gu Fangyao was, she shouldn't have lost the jade gourd and not reported it.If the reputation of Gu Hou Mansion is hurt, can Gu Fangyao afford it?
What Su Shi didn't expect was that she indulged Gu Fangyao's arrogance, and what she got in exchange was not the glorious lintel of Gu Hou's mansion, but a naked slap in the face.

If Gu Fangyao accidentally left the jade gourd, and it happened to be picked up by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince... It's not a big deal, just find the jade gourd.

However, His Royal Highness specially sent someone to send the jade gourd back, and it was delivered to Gu Fangling.In other words, in the hearts of His Highness the Crown Prince, Gu Fangling, not Gu Fangyao, is the eldest daughter of the Gu Hou Mansion.

Thinking of this, Su couldn't help being startled.

What did Gu Fangling do to make His Royal Highness treat her differently?How long will this exception last?The Su family did not dare to make a conclusion, and did not dare to manipulate Gu Fangling arbitrarily.

"Bring the eldest girl here." Su's voice was cold, suppressed anger, mixed with disappointment and heartache.

Su Momo nodded silently, turned around and followed a little girl to arrange the task.

After being summoned by the Su family, Gu Fangyao was a little baffled.Although her relationship with the Su family in the past five years is fairly peaceful, it can't be said that they are very close.With Gu Changlin present, the other descendants of the Gu family are not ranked high in Su's heart.

The number of times has increased, and Gu Fangyao no longer runs in front of Su Shi to make fun of herself, but occasionally does some stage work, and accompany Su Shi to pretend to be gracious and filial.

Full of doubts, Gu Fangyao came to Su's courtyard.Then, I saw Gu Fangling waiting inside.

The moment she saw Gu Fangling, Gu Fangyao's first reaction was: Gu Fangling plotted against her behind her back.

It's just... Gu Fangyao's eyes were full of complacency, and she didn't take Gu Fangling seriously at all.His Royal Highness received the jade gourd, which is undoubtedly the most secure thing.With His Royal Highness as the backer, does she still need to be afraid of the threat brought by Gu Fangling?
"Miss, did you take the token of the eldest daughter of Gu Hou's mansion in the hands of the second miss?" Straight to the point, Su Shi asked coldly without dealing with Gu Fangyao.

"If you go back to grandma, yes." Although Gu Fangyao was confident about the sudden question, she also raised her vigilance.How could Gu Fangling complain to Su after a few days?Could it be that she learned that the jade gourd is not on her body?
Taking a deep look at Gu Fangyao, who showed no signs of panic, Su Shi shook her head inwardly, but she didn't show anything on her face: "Since that's the case, what about the token? Why don't you see it on your body?"

Sure enough, it was for this matter.Could it be that Gu Fangling thought that this would fix her faults?Glancing at Gu Fangling ironically, Gu Fangyao put on a slight smile on her face: "Fangyao came here in a hurry, she didn't pay attention, and fell into the room."

"Really?" Su prolonged his voice, looking at Gu Fangyao with sullen eyes, "Then let someone get it."

Seeing Su's anger, Gu Fangyao still walked forward calmly, "Grandmother, the token is not in Fangyao's hands right now."

Gu Fangyao's face is full of righteousness, as if everything is sure to win.This kind of self-confidence is what the Su family valued the most in the past.Compared to Gu Fangling, Gu Fangyao has the grand demeanor of the eldest daughter of Gu Houfu.

But today, Gu Fangyao's self-confidence has become arrogant, blind and ridiculous
"It's not in your hands?" Su smirked back in anger, "Dare to ask, where is the token of the eldest daughter of the Marquis Gu's Mansion if it's not in your hands? Has it returned to the original owner, has it returned to the second girl's hands?"

I have to admit that the words "return to the original owner" deeply hurt Gu Fangyao's self-esteem.However, due to the fact that it was the Su family who was sitting in the upper position, Gu Fangyao forcibly endured the unwillingness in her heart.Immediately, he moved a few steps in front of Su Shi, bowed his head and whispered, "His Royal Highness."

Gu Fangyao's voice was not loud, but it also ensured that the Su family and Gu Fangling who was close could hear clearly.The reason why she made such an unspeakable gesture of a great secret was just to arouse the fright of Su Shi and Gu Fangling.

However, the result was destined to disappoint Gu Fangyao.Su Clan was not frightened, and Gu Fangling did not change his face.The two just looked at Gu Fangyao as if they were looking at a lunatic, with surprise on their faces: "Are you sure?"

Even though Su's and Gu Fangling's reactions were not as shocking as Gu Fangyao expected, the unanimous voice of the two managed to appease Gu Fangyao's unhappiness.

"That's right." Gu Fangyao straightened up, her eyes full of satisfaction.That person is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, even the Su family would not dare to do anything to her, let alone Gu Fangling.

Looking at Gu Fangyao's pride and publicity, Gu Fangling smiled.

Gu Fangyao's complexion changed, but she just snorted coldly, ignoring Gu Fangling's provocation.She knew the Su family, and when the situation was settled, the Su family would definitely make the most sensible choice.

Su Shi sat without moving, and the eyes that were originally staring at Gu Fangyao turned to Gu Fangling.Then, in Gu Fangyao's confident eyes, she directed to Gu Fangling: "Second girl, take it out quickly! Let our invincible eldest girl open her eyes and realize what reality is."

Su's words obviously had a lot of meaning, Gu Fangyao was stunned.Before she could think about the strangeness, Gu Fangling really took out the jade gourd that once made her jealous and even resentful.

impossible!The jade gourd has been handed over to His Royal Highness by her own hands, and it is at His Highness's place right now!Gu Fangyao shook her head violently in disbelief, grabbed the jade gourd and examined it carefully, vowing to find out the abnormality.

However, no matter how Gu Fangyao checked it, there was nothing wrong with it.The only thing she can be sure of is that this must be Gu Fangling's trick.Either what Gu Fangling gave her before was a fake token, or what Gu Fangling took out at this moment was a defective one.

She said how could Gu Fangling give up the token of the eldest daughter of Gu Houfu so easily!I thought that Gu Fangling had become aware of current affairs through Li Cheng and his party.But it turned out that Gu Fangling had only learned dark calculations.

However, no matter how vicious Gu Fangling resorted to, Gu Fangyao was not afraid.Even if the jade gourd she presented to His Royal Highness was fake, she was not afraid of being blamed by His Royal Highness.What His Highness the Crown Prince valued was not the meaning of the jade gourd itself, but the encounter in the 25th year of Xuanyuan.

Thinking of this, Gu Fangyao raised the corners of her mouth and calmed down: "The jade gourd in my sister's hand is probably fake!"

"How did you see that?" Gu Fangling raised her brows with interest as she played with the jade gourd in her hand.

"Because it's really in the hands of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" While speaking, Gu Fangyao looked at Su Shi who suddenly couldn't see any emotion at this moment.She believed that the Su family would understand how to determine the truth.

"Then if I tell my sister that this jade gourd was sent back to my sister by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..." Gu Fangling did not speak fast, but said slowly and firmly.

"Impossible!" Without warning, Gu Fangyao screamed.Even if His Royal Highness wanted to return it, he would return it to her. How could it be Gu Fangling?False, must be false!
