Upon hearing that Gu Zhao was ill, Old Madam Gu immediately rushed over with Nanny Gu and others.

"What's going on, Miss?"

"Reporting to the old lady, the young lady is indeed suffering from a fever. I have already prescribed medicine for her and have asked someone to get and boil the medicine. The young lady is weak and seems to have been cold before... She needs to be taken good care of now..."

Upon hearing that her eldest granddaughter, Gu Zhao, was in poor health, had poor food on the farm, and was often cold, Mrs. Gu became even angrier.

She thought that Gu Zhu was just being mean to her granddaughter because she was holding a grudge against what happened in the past. Unexpectedly, Zhu didn't even give Zhao'er good food and even dressed her so poorly.

Zhao'er is the eldest daughter of the Gu family.

"Madam, the eldest lady has been eating cold meals recently. Her stomach hurts after eating every day. But the eldest lady doesn't want you to know, for fear that you will worry..." Xiaofang knelt on the ground and talked about Gu Zhao's situation.

what?

The food that was delivered was cold?

How dare the kitchen manager treat Zhao'er so badly?

"Tell me in detail what you have eaten and used in the past few months."

Madam Gu looked at Xiaofang with a stern tone.

Xiaofang was so frightened that she was shaking, and immediately told Gu Zhao what happened after he returned.

I heard that the three dishes and one soup that Gu Zhao ate every day were even worse than those of the servants, and the charcoal he used was the kind that produced a lot of smoke.

"Madam, we have left a large bucket of charcoal. If you don't believe me, I will bring it to you to see."

When Mrs. Gu heard Xiaofang say this and thought about what the court doctor said, she naturally believed it.

"Madam, why don't you have someone come over here and build a stove and a small kitchen. The eldest lady is going to get married soon, so she has to get herself back into good health..." Madam Gu said, thinking of the silver that Madam Yang had quietly handed to her before.

After hearing what Nanny Gu said, Old Madam Gu looked at Gu Zhao. Seeing Gu Zhao lying there with a pale and weak face, she nodded.

"Go call the steward and ask him to send someone to finish the small kitchen within an hour. Go tell the Second Madam to send someone to deliver the things needed for the small kitchen. The expenses for the small kitchen in the eldest lady's courtyard will be paid from the East Courtyard..."

"Thank you grandma."

Gu Zhao’s face turned pale, and he wanted to stand up and salute Old Madam Gu.

Seeing Gu Zhao’s weak appearance, Old Madam Gu felt even more distressed.

"Good boy, lie down quickly."

After saying a few words, Old Madam Gu instructed Nanny Yang to take people to take good care of Gu Zhao, and then left the yard.

Cuihua and Xiaofang looked at Gu Zhao with admiration.

"Miss, you are so amazing."

Naturally, Gu Zhao did not drink the medicine prescribed by the court physician, and he fell into the ditch outside the window.

When the court physician came, she sent someone to warn him in advance.

The court doctor had never expected that the eldest lady would even know such a thing. He had no choice but to follow Gu Zhao's words. The eldest lady wanted to be told the truth, and he did not lie to the old lady.

After Gu Zhushi and Gu Rong came back, Gu Zhushi was about to call Gu Zhao over to give him a beating, but unexpectedly, Gu Zhao was actually ill. Moreover, the old lady not only visited Gu Zhao, but also built a small kitchen for him, and not only that, she also sent him a supply of high-quality charcoal that could not be used up for the entire winter.

How did Gu Zhao do it?

Before, the old lady didn't care about Gu Zhao as much as she does now. Could it be that because Gu Zhao and the son of Qin Hou were engaged, the old lady was so kind to Gu Zhao?
