"Okay." She nodded softly.

Today is the birthday banquet of the eldest lady of the Huo family, because the Huo family is the top in Huaiping, so there are many businessmen and ladies and young masters in the political circles who come to celebrate their birthdays. Although this kind of banquet is open to celebrate his birthday, he is actually looking at the young master and young lady.

Of course, Gu Zhiyu wouldn't join in the excitement, he just wanted to find a quiet corner to sit in, so he said to Huo Chen: "Sanshao, you go and get busy!" Leave me alone. ”

"Oh well! There are a lot of guests today, I went to receive guests, if you have anything, remember to come to me immediately. "Although Huo Yan was born to the late second lady of the Huo family, this birthday banquet was organized by him, and he couldn't lose his sense of proportion inside and out.

Separated from Huo Chen, Gu Zhiyu avoided the crowd, found a corner in the back garden, and sat down to rest.

Huo Mansion decoration of the combination of Chinese and Western, magnificent, from the door in, all the way fluorescent lamp, although it is night, but the light is not inferior to the day.

Although it cannot be compared with the majestic Overseer's Mansion, the layout of the Huo Mansion is atmospheric, which also reflects the profound heritage of the wealthy family.

Gu Xiuyun found Gu Zhiyu in an inconspicuous corner, and saw that she was wearing an elegant cheongsam with a light makeup, she was very satisfied, and reached over to pull her: "Zhiyu, why are you sitting here alone, my aunt will take you to the front hall, I want everyone to know that our eldest lady of the Gu family is fine!" ”

Gu Zhiyu is not afraid of people's words, but she really doesn't like this kind of hypocritical gathering, but she also understands that as the eldest lady of the Gu family, it is impossible to avoid vulgarity, so she was silent for a moment and nodded.

Gu Xiuyun was very happy to see that she was well-behaved and obedient, took her hand and walked to the main hall.

The decoration in the main hall is more luxurious, with huge crystal chandeliers and leather sofas, which are worth a lot of money at a glance. Those brightly dressed ladies or sons shuttled among them, talking eagerly and staggering.

"Mrs. Huo, today's birthday banquet is really more and more radiant!"

"Where, Second Mrs. Fu is modest, in terms of appearance and temperament, who can compare to you."

After a while, Mrs. Huo's eyes locked on Gu Zhiyu: "This is the eldest lady of the Gu family!" ”

"Exactly, my niece has just returned from Paris, and the old man has focused on cultivating my niece during his lifetime, and even the old governor said that Zhiyu's temperament is extraordinary. I have no children or daughters under my knees, and this niece is not like a daughter! Gu Xiuyun said while looking at Gu Zhiyu kindly.

Doesn't this imply that Second Lady Fu treats Gu Zhiyu as her own daughter, and Second Lady Fu is a mother-like existence in the Overseer's Mansion, and she is deeply favored by the old Governor, since she is her niece who treats her as a daughter, she will judge the situation and judge the situation, so she naturally does not dare to chew the root of her tongue three years ago.

Gu Zhiyu stepped forward and smiled politely: "Mrs. Huo, happy birthday to you, forever young and beautiful." ”

Mrs. Huo is especially shrewd, Gu Xiuyun's words, she listened thoroughly, and looked at Gu Zhiyu with a smile on her face: "Miss Gu is even more beautiful than three years ago, I remember that you and Huo Xian once studied together in St. John!" When you were a kid, you guys played pretty well. ”

Gu Zhiyu's smile remained unchanged, Huo Yan used to live in her house, so she naturally had a good time, but Mrs. Huo specially said it on this occasion, which meant something else.

"Mother, what are you talking about?" Huo Yan walked over with a smile and relieved the siege in time.

Mrs. Huo seemed to smile: "I was saying that you had a good relationship with Miss Gu before." ”
