Chapter 149

A Ying continued to smile and said, "A Ying, don't be shy. This is something every woman has to go through. At first it might be quite painful, so bear with it and don't dampen the Eldest Prince's excitement. Men want dignity in the bedroom. If you don't give him face, he won't be able to get it up.

Qin agreed with this point. "The Eldest Prince doesn't look like someone who would hurt you. If you obey him, you'll suffer less."

Gu Ying really didn't know what to say. She knew what the Eldest Prince was like in that area.

Her cheeks were still flaming red. Seeing the two still wanted to continue advising her, she was afraid their topic would become even more intimate, which would only embarrass her alone. "Alright, alright. I understand... Tonight I will definitely remember Auntie's and Auntie Qin's teaching and serve the Eldest Prince well."

Hearing this, the two were finally satisfied and smiled. "That's good. You're sensible."

"We'll take our leave first. Stay here by yourself for a while. Remember to read the books we gave you and learn."

"Okay, don't worry. I will definitely study hard." Gu Ying nodded eagerly and waved her hand, signaling them to leave quickly.

If they didn't leave soon, she didn't know what else they would say to embarrass her.

After Qin and Mrs. Zhao left, everyone tactfully gave her some personal time and didn't dare enter Twilight Snow Studio without their mistress' order.

The room finally quieted down. Looking into the bronze mirror, Gu Ying saw her thick powdered face was still red, showing just how powerful Auntie's and Auntie Qin's words were.

She let out a small sigh. It was the dead of winter, with fine snow drifting down outside and cold winds howling, yet she felt hot all over and restless at heart.

She had the two books every woman about to marry had to study placed on her lap.

She didn't need to read them again, but her hands seemed to have a mind of their own and flipped open the books anyway...

The content described two intertwined people... At first it was acceptable within her understanding, but as she read on, those postures, environments...those strangely shaped clothes...made her blush deep red.

She couldn't continue and hurriedly closed the book, the heat on her face steaming.

She also feared others finding these things, especially Yanzhi. That would be teaching a child badly.

She wanted to casually stuff the books into some box, but thought better of it after some thought. She could only hide them in the dowry chest containing the house deeds her mother left her.

After hiding the little books, she finally felt a little relaxed.

She knew things had probably gone as planned.

Yanzhi ran back to Twilight Snow Studio out of breath and pushed the door open, breathing out a cloud of white mist. Gasping, she said, "Miss, guess what! The embroidered phoenix golden silk bridal dress Eldest Miss stole from our Lady's dowry was ripped off by the officers who barged into the Gu manor! The official said he received a report from the embroiderers that Eldest Miss wearing the embroidered phoenix golden silk broke the rules and was disrespectful! Now they even want to take her back to prison for questioning!"

The corners of Gu Ying's lips slightly rose. She had expected this result early on.

That embroidered phoenix golden silk was specially bestowed by the previous emperor to the Ye family. Only Ye family daughters could wear it. Anyone else who dared to use it would be disrespecting the imperial family.

How stupid was Gu Jia and Mrs. Liu to not only steal Mother's belongings, but also go find the embroiderers!

Those skilled embroiderers went between the manors of high ranking nobles and were worldly people.

Something like this was impossible to conceal from them, yet they had foolishly wanted to show off with this bridal dress. They were simply asking for death.

It was a pity Mrs. Liu wouldn't get to see Gu Jia imprisoned.

The massive weight pressing down on Gu Ying's heart finally lifted. Gu Jia had ruined her life and made her end up in the dilapidated temple. Now Gu Jia wanted to leave prison? Wishful thinking.

She calmly pulled up the corners of her mouth. On her journey of revenge after rebirth, she had also completed over half.

Jiang Yin was left. There was still much time.

...

The front yard clamored loudly for a while before quieting down again.

Gu Jia was taken away. This time even Old Madam Gu couldn't protect her. Luckily Gu Jia and Jiang Yin's wedding today was held quietly, just going through the motions, and not many people were invited, mostly Jiang's relatives.

This farce did not make any waves.

Jiang Yin had just finished half the worship ceremony. With the sparse guests, Madam Jiang and Jiang Ling'er immediately burst into tears right there.

Old Madam Gu and Gu Boyan just coldly laughed and abandoned Jiang Yin at the wedding hall, turning all their attention to Twilight Snow Studio.

Jiang Yin's handsome face was gloomy as he tightly gripped the wedding ribbon in his hand. No matter how he thought about it, he couldn't understand why Gu Jia's reputation had fallen so low yet Gu Ying was completely unaffected!
