One had to know before the engagement between Lin family and Gu family, Gu family was nothing but a long forgotten era, at the end of it's rope. Even the silvers used on Gu Tianshui and Gu Tianhao for their education was given by Lin family as gifts when both families had signed the marriage agreement even though Madam Lin entered Gu Residence a whole decade later.
While Shen family got involved with Gu family only after Gu Tianshui passed the scholar's exam and he had proved his potential.
Madam Shen entered Gu Residence four years before Madam Lin and had already made her impression in the heart of old Madam Gu and Gu Residence both and had been enjoying the status of the eldest Madam of Gu family since then.
Because Madam Shen's Mother and father both came from scholarly family, she hadn't brought much in her dowry stating the fact that Shen family was upright and didn't like to involve with lowly businessmen.
Gu family also appreciated Shen family's motto and praised Madam Shen for coming from such a clean and virtuous family.
While on the other hand Old Madam Gu and even Gu Tianhao had always disdained Madam Lin; first, Madam Lin came from military family where rules were a lot easier than the scholarly family and Madam Lin's horse riding was famous in the whole capital before she entered Gu Residence.
Gu Tianhao alway felt that it was a stain in his image having a wife who had rode a horse in front of other men and old Madam Gu also didn't appreciated this men like character in her daughter-in-law but the benefits Madam Lin brought with her made Gu Tianhao and old Madam Gu both force a smile on their faces and welcome Madam Lin in the Gu family.
The second reason for Gu family members not liking Madam Lin was Madam Lin's background.
Even though Madam Lin was born in a military household, her mother came from Xie family in Quzhou. Xie family was a family of businessmen.
Old Madam Gu had always disdained Madam Lin for having a mother from lowly businessmen's background and had always felt that Madam Lin was also greedy and scheming like her maternal grandfather's family neglecting her own character as a most greedy and scheming one.
Madam Lin always had it hard while Madam Shen was bathing in the glory of Gu family's rising reputation and wealth.
So, leaving the Gu family's reputation for the time being, Gu Yanyan had taken all the wealth given by Gu family from Madam Shen.
Looking at the pile of treasures in her space Gu Yanyan sighed.
When she first found out about a barren space in her right palm, Gu Yanyan thought she had found a way to become rich and famous overnight by conjuring unique things in her space.
It was only after searching inside out, Gu Yanyan found that this space wouldn't conjure anything at all as it was only a barren land.
Gu Yanyan didn't know the true use of her personal space as their was no manual inside to tell her about her own personal space.
But since the system had given her this space it means it had to be some of her use.
Gu Yanyan didn't feel defeated and continued to find a way to make her personal useful.
But she truly couldn't find any use of a barren land, in a moment of desperation she waved her right hand over her toys, thinking if she could put them inside her space and booooom.
They really disappeared..
Entering her space, she saw her toys were laid at one side of her space neatly and the other side of space was unchanged but still somehow it felt strangely changed. But how? Gu Yanyan couldn't point it out.
She was already happy after finding some use of her space; it could store things away.
After discovering this uniqueness of her personal space, Gu Yanyan was so happy that in her happiness she put away almost everything inside her room.
When Yang Xumei returned from kitchen with her bowl of porridge, she was stunned finding only Gu Yanyan on her bed looking towards her with her big doe like eyes who had been startled and the whole room was empty.
"How did this robbery happened in such a broad daylight. I was only away for a while and the whole room is cleaned?" Seven year old Yang Xumei who had just entered the room was stunned after seeing the scene in front of her.
After seeing that it was her good Xumei, Gu Yanyan let out a sigh of relief and walked towards her good Xumei with her short wobbly legs while giving her toothy grin.
"It was not robbery Xumei. It was me." Two years Gu Yanyan giggled as she told Yang Xumei the whole story of her toys disappearing and then appearing in her personal space and then how she had stored away all furnitures and other things from her room to her space.
Hearing this miraculous story from Gu Yanyan, Yang Xumei was not only surprised but equally delighted.
"It means, we can store away all the precious things in the Gu Residence and then sneak away from the capital city for some unknown place where we can start our luxurious life?" Yang Xumei asked with excitement laced in her voice.
Yang Xumei had already known about the Gu Yanyan's personal space. In fact she was the only one who knew about this space other than Gu Yanyan.
And she and Gu Yanyan had been trying to find a use of this space but lack of information, they could only tried methods to open this space but not that they had found a way, she was sure, she wouldn't let this golden chance slip out her hands.
She had long been tired being treated like a dog in the Gu Residence and had long wanted to escape from this God damn hell if not for her cute little miss.
