Chapter 1376: The Apology Isn’t Pure

However, the girls on the other side saw them. The people who were playing looked at each other.

Not long after, two ladies of the same age as Anning ran over and stood in front of Qin Anning, inviting her, “Anning, are you coming with us to play?”

Qin Anning did not. She did not like these people.

They liked to compare at such a young age. It was either that their parents doted on them or that they had learned the zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting. They were praised and rewarded. They even asked her if she was very knowledgeable. After all, her father was a young genius and had caused a sensation back then.

Later on, when they found out that Anning was not as good as them, they all looked at her in a strange way.

It was as if she had embarrassed her father just because she was not a talented girl.

Therefore, the last time they met, they parted on bad terms.

Qin Anning did not expect them to come looking for her again. Frowning, she shook her head and said, “I’m not going. I want to accompany my Sister Gu.”

The two girls looked up at Gu Yundong curiously.

Then, they turned around to look at the other little girls and quickly said, “Anning, come with us. It was our fault last time. When we went back, we were scolded by our parents. We know our mistake and won’t do it again.”

Startled, Qin Anning’s heart softened at the sight of how guilty they looked.

The young lady was not a calculative person to begin with. Since they had already apologized, it would be rude of her to continue harping on it.

She immediately pursed her lips and said softly, “Then, then I’ll forgive you.”

Then, she looked up at Gu Yundong.

Gu Yundong laughed. “You can go if you want. I’ll be here admiring the flowers myself. Just call me if you need anything.”

Gu Yundong and Qin Anning had different thoughts. She knew that these people would ‘condescend’ to come over and invite Anning because of her father. They said that they had been scolded by their parents last time. She guessed that their parents had asked them to build a good relationship with the young lady of the Qin family.

The apology was not pure, and they did not really realize that they were wrong.

But what did it matter? Anning was young. Deep down, she longed to play with other children.

If she was restrained, Anning would never know the true thoughts of these young ladies in the capital. As Qin Wenzheng’s daughter, the people she would come into contact with in the future were these people. She could not avoid them.

Gu Yundong just watched from the side.

Qin Anning quickly followed the two young ladies to their small circle. Gu Yundong had sharp eyes and noticed that there seemed to be a young lady in the center of them, who looked even younger than Anning.

Thinking about it, this young lady was also a person of noble status.

When Gu Yundong saw that they were speaking quickly, she separated her attention and sized up the people around her.

Most of the people in this area were the maidservants of those girls. They basically stood far away. Some were alone, and some were gathered together to talk.

The rest were the old maids in the Marquis Mansion.

Gu Yundong’s target was these people.

She saw an old woman picking up the plum blossom branches that had been torn off the ground. She was probably afraid that the young masters here would accidentally step on them and fall.

Gu Yundong narrowed her eyes and quietly reached into her sleeve. She took out the silver bracelet from her space and put it on her wrist.

This silver bracelet was specially made after she heard the news from Liangzi in the Wanqing Prefecture.

If the Marquis Mansion was really Shao Qingyuan’s house, then the elders of the Marquis Mansion should have seen this bracelet.
