1509 The Min Family’s Flattery 1
As long as she could still talk to the Min Family, the marital arrangement between Ling and Young Master Gu would add to that. So the Min Family would be considered to be hanging out with the Phoenix Girl. And they could continue to develop the relationship little by little.
The Min Family was a noble family for hundreds of years, and the Phoenix Girl would need to respect them too.
That was what Madame Min had been thinking during this period, so she looked slightly more relaxed. She showed her special smile and looked up to the door.
Gu Chaoyan was the same as they remembered. She was dressed in plain and simple white. She had a few maids behind her, which was more than the maids she had when she first came to the Min Mansion a while ago, when she looked very poor.
“Hello, Elder Miss,” Madame Min said in a friendly tone.
“Greetings, Madame Min,” Gu Chaoyan said, with a slight nod, as she went to the empty seat.
Well…
She was the Phoenix Girl, who was more noble than the Min Family. And the Min Family had no official rank, so she did not need to bow to them. She was just greeting Madame Min as someone younger and polite.
Madame Min’s gratified feelings and hope were gone when they saw how Gu Chaoyan greeted them.
She was very cold and did not even look at the others from the Min Family. She had completely showcased that right in front of them.
It seemed that… they would need to make some efforts to repair the relationship.
Madame Min sighed, but she still wore a very affable smile.
Gu Chaoyan had just sat down and asked. “Housekeeper Chen informed me that you were here to ask for me. I wonder what you want?”
She sounded very distant. She was taking it as a business deal.
She did not speak in a soft voice as she did when she was at the Min Mansion. Madame Min felt very regretful.
The Min Mansion should not have treated her like that before. No one had expected that she would be the Phoenix Girl, but she was a very skillful doctor, so she was worth hanging out with. Madame Min had been thinking about treating her nicely so that they could continue to hang out later, but everything turned out to be the opposite.
When she offered to treat her medically, she still had some gentleness.
If she had gripped that opportunity… everything would have been so different.
Madame Min was very jealous of Madame Bai, who had always been hanging out with Gu Chaoyan. She believed that the Bai Family must be receiving a lot of guests these days.
Nevertheless… it was too late for her to regret.
Madame Min was experienced and elderly enough not to show any turmoil on her face.
She smiled kindly. “The King has bestowed the martial arrangement between our Ling and Young Master Gu, but the wedding has not yet been held due to the chaotic past few days. Now the Saint Divine Land has settled down, and the Phoenix Girl is here. That is a good omen. The Min Family have a good relationship with the Gu Family so we would like to get some happiness from you, the Phoenix Girl, so that we can get the wedding date settled.”
“…”
“Actually, we are destined to have a good relationship. Apart from the martial arrangement, you even saved my life before.
You are a savior to our family, so…”
