Chapter 1330: First Encounter

use Ripples was video-calling Annie, she sent text messages to all the members of Class A, letting them know the current situation. Everyone made eye contact silently and got ready for battle. Ninetee...After receiving the silver, Zhuang Sisi couldn't stop crying. Her eldest daughter was gone, which made her heart ache. Liu Dashan also felt downcast, while Liu Shangeng tugged at his mother's sleeve. He knew that he wouldn't be able to see his elder sister whenever he wanted from now on.

Some are happy, some are sad. As the protagonist of the event, Lian'er is in a good mood at this time because Gu Die'er is the destined person for Xin Yuan in this life, to put it simply, she is Xin Yuan's predestined lover.

When she first saw him, the red string on her wrist flashed, as if reminding her that her destined person had arrived.

To ensure that Xinyuan Tianzun can smoothly meet his destined lover, Lianyi decided to stay by Gu Die'er's side so that when the two met, she could help push things along.

Time flies like an arrow, eight years have passed in the blink of an eye. Lian'Yi had a wonderful time at Gu Mansion, mainly because her arrival made Gu Die'er, the precious little jewel, healthier and more cheerful. Thus, Madam Gu became even more kind to her.

At Ripples' request, she also learned medicine on her own, claiming it was to protect Gu Die'er. In case someone tried to poison the young lady, she could detect it in time.

Madam Gu felt that Lian Yi's words were reasonable. Protecting her daughter wasn't just about having strength; it was also about allowing Lian Yi to learn some medical and toxicological knowledge alongside the physician. Lian Yi also demonstrated her astonishing learning aptitude, mastering the skills in five years and leaving the physician amazed by her talent.

Then, with her learned skills, Lian Ri diagnosed Gu Fu's auspicious pulse and actively helped her nourish her body. As a result, Gu Fu successfully gave birth to her legitimate son, Gu Minglang.

This made Lian Ri even more face-saving in front of Madam Gu. Then, Lian Ri secretly gave Madam Gu an idea to let Zhao An resign as the son-in-law who came to visit, completely becoming a decoration, and could only live a life with his tail tucked between his legs, making Madam Gu's life easier and more comfortable.

And Gu Die'er, this young girl, under Lian Yi's care and deliberate cultivation, developed towards the direction of black sesame paste glutinous rice balls. She is intelligent and discerning, and she won't be deceived by men with small favors and kindnesses.

In order to help Gu Die'er become immune to the concept of love, Lian Ri specifically collected some romance novels and told her stories about heartless men in various ways. She also shared tricks men used to deceive women, determined to establish a correct view of love for Gu Die'er.

She would occasionally take Gu Die to watch the live-action version of the war between men and women, making her realize that love is only one aspect of life, not everything. A woman must guard her own heart.

So when Gu Die'er encountered Xin Yuan because her horse was startled, she initially thought that he had deliberately frightened her horse and staged this heroic rescue to make a good impression on her.

The story begins before Gu Die'er's coming-of-age ceremony.

Because Gu Die'er was going to have her coming-of-age ceremony, she was confined in the mansion by Madam Gu to learn the ceremony procedures, which made Gu Die'er miserable. While Lian Yi was only responsible for cheering her on, they prepared a medicinal bath at night for Gu Die'er to soak in. The next day, she would be as energetic as ever.

"Ripples (Mrs. Gu disliked the name Big Girl and later changed it), I'm not soaking in medicinal baths anymore."

Gu Die'er began to act like a spoiled child.

Lian Yi wasn't fooled by this. She raised an eyebrow and said:

Then when you're aching all over tomorrow, don't whine to me.

"Hao Lianyi, you know, I don't want to learn the rules, it's too boring."

Gu Die'er started acting coquettishly, clinging to Lian Yi's arm. The two had grown up together since they were young. Although their relationship was that of master and servant, they were as close as sisters.

Moreover, because Liushan Gen was ambitious and had just passed the Tongsheng examination this year, the Liushan Da family took the first step towards changing their fortunes, becoming a scholarly household.

Upon receiving this news, Madam Gu immediately instructed her servants to prepare gifts to congratulate the Liu family. She also revoked the contract she had with Liu Dayao, treating it as if she had simply asked Lianyi to stay at the Gu residence for a while to accompany their eldest daughter.

The ripples naturally climbed up the pole, regaining their freedom and living in the Gu Mansion as Mrs. Gu's adopted daughter. Therefore, after that, she spoke to Gu Die'er more freely.

"If you don't want to be bothered, learn quickly. Once you've learned, grandma won't bother you anymore. If you can't learn, when the coming-of-age ceremony arrives, it will be you and your family who are disgraced. Think about it carefully."

Besides, after your coming-of-age ceremony, you'll be getting married. You can't make a mistake, this concerns your entire future life.

Ripple's communication is always to the point.

"What's the big deal I can learn from Mother and find a son-in-law myself."

When you think like that, why don't you go and see your trashy father

Ripples raised an eyebrow and asked.

As soon as anyone mentioned her father, Gu Die'er would clam up. To be honest, her father was now just living off his wife's money, and she had no idea how her mother could have ever fallen for him.

"Gu Die'er, remember this: you have a younger brother who can inherit the Gu family. You don't need to find a husband to carry on the family line."

The ripples added another sentence.

"Okay, I'll study hard tomorrow and try to pass Grandma's assessment. Then we can go out and play."

"Alright, I'll tell my wife to come with us then."

Having made this promise, Gu Die'er spent all her effort studying the next day. In the afternoon, she barely passed the test and then took Lianyi to find Mrs. Gu, telling her that they were going out of town to play.

Lady Gu also knew that she had been too strict with her daughter these past two days, so she nodded in agreement. However, she asked the two of them to bring more guards and not go too far, just a stroll around the suburbs would be fine. Gu Die'er immediately agreed.

After breakfast the next day, the two set off in a horse-drawn carriage.

I heard there's a peach blossom forest on the outskirts of town, with beautiful scenery. All the ladies from the city love to go there, so we should go too and join in the fun.

Gu Die'er started chattering non-stop as soon as she got in the car.

Even the dandy young men of the city, who are fond of airs and graces, also like to go there to chance upon the young ladies from various families. You must be careful.

Ripple reminded him bluntly.

Gu Die'er immediately said:

Don't worry, I can still tell the difference between genuine feelings and feigned ones.

As the carriage left the city gate, there were fewer people on the road. The driver whipped his horses, urging them to run faster.

The result was halfway there, the horse got spooked somehow and ran faster and faster. The driver couldn't hold the reins.

When Ripples sensed something amiss, she prepared to forcefully halt the carriage. However, a shadowy figure suddenly leaped onto the horse's back, seizing the reins and beginning to restrain the steeds.

The ripples only saw a back view and knew that it was Xin Yuan Tianson. He thought to himself, "Damn," but he still retreated back to the carriage and said to Gu Die'er:

"Someone's already subdued the frightened horse, heroically rescuing the damsel. Just sit still now."

"Are you a man"

"Or else"

"He couldn't have meant to do it, could he Maybe he spooked my horse on purpose and is now trying to look good in front of us"

Liàn Yī felt that her guidance was still very successful. Before, she had tried to prevent Gù Diē'er from being too naive and being deceived by someone before meeting Xīn Yuán. Now it seems that because the guidance was too successful, it actually increased Xīn Yuán's difficulty in pursuing his wife.

Gu Die'er saw Lian Yi's expression strange and immediately asked,

"Did I get it right"u can squeeze past all those young people That you'll definitely get a seat""You can stand on your own two feet, but your grandson couldn't stand for even two hours! This is my little car, I guarantee...
