"Your method is indeed a good one. Mother will go back to the Zhu family in a couple of days to discuss this matter with your uncle and the others."

Zhu felt that this was indeed the best way. If Qin Chen died, everything in the Qin Marquis Mansion would belong to her son-in-law and Gu Rong.

The mother and daughter were very happy.

Gu Zhu asked again.

"Tell me what happened to Gu Zhao these days."

Gu Rong told all these things.

When Zhu heard that Gu Zhao had obtained the power of housekeeper and made great changes to the Qinhou Mansion, she was so angry that she trembled all over.

"Madam, the maid from Marquis Qin's mansion has sent some more stuff. She sent it directly to the old lady's courtyard."

This was the third time that Gu Zhao had sent Nanny Qin to come. Since the day of her return, Gu Zhao had sent people to deliver things to Minister Gu's residence three times.

Moreover, these things were bought by Gu Zhao who sent Hong'er and the others to the Food Building, Medicine King Shop and several other shops.

As soon as Hong'er and the others arrived at those shops, they said they were sent by the wife of the Duke of Qin. The wife was filial and came to buy some food and medicinal herbs for her grandmother, Madam Gu...

Gu Rong and Zhu Shi didn't know about these things. But some people outside knew about them. And what Gu Zhao bought was not cheap. There were several-decade-old ginseng and good bird's nests, which cost hundreds of taels of silver.

Not only that, Gu Zhao also took Qin Chen's invitation and sent someone to invite the imperial physician today.

Minister Gu rarely invites the imperial physician a few times a year, and now the imperial physician has come to Minister Gu's mansion again.

When Mrs. Gu saw Nanny Qin and Hong'er, a smile appeared on her face.

Although she was heartbroken after giving away tens of thousands of taels of silver, she felt much better after Gu Zhao sent her three gifts and invited the imperial physician to come.

"Madam, you are much better..." This was the second time the imperial physician came, and he was the director of the Imperial Hospital. These were the people who treated the Empress Dowager and the Emperor. It was not easy to invite them normally.

"It's all thanks to my eldest granddaughter Zhao'er. If she hadn't invited Dean Liu and you here, my health wouldn't have recovered so quickly."

Dean Liu was willing to come because Lord Qin had helped him when he was down and out. So what was wrong with him coming to help Old Madam Gu with her illness?

Soon, the imperial doctors prescribed a few more prescriptions and said that the Qinhou Mansion would pay for the medicines. Then the imperial doctors left.

Nanny Qin said with a smile.

"Old Madam, you are alright. I can go back and report to the Marquis's wife and the Crown Prince's wife."

When Zhu arrived, she saw Nanny Qin and Hong'er leaving.

"Mother."

Upon hearing what Zhu said, Madam Gu's face turned serious.

"Why are they here again?" Zhu had just finished talking to Gu Rong, and Gu Rong also said that he came to visit his grandmother.

"Grandma, I heard that you got sick because of my elder sister. Are you feeling better now?"

Gu Rong acted coquettishly towards Old Madam Gu.

"Who said grandma that I got sick because of your elder sister? I'm in good health, that's not the case."

Gu Rong was stunned when he heard his grandmother say this.

I heard that grandma paid tens of thousands of taels of silver to Gu Zhao. Wouldn’t grandma be angry?

Or was it that my grandmother was coaxed into submission by the gifts Gu Zhao sent her several times?

"Madam, you should take your medicine."

Aunt Shi came in with her maid.

In the past few days, Aunt Shi has been taking care of Aunt Shi at Old Madam Gu's place. As for Gu Zhushi, she was not willing to take care of Old Madam Gu. She just came to say a few nice words and left.
