Favoring Concubines and Destroying Wife: Reborn, I Married to a Rich Man and Destroyed His Whole Fam

Gu Zhao quickly talked about the fire in the changing yard.

"My granddaughter heard about the fire, so she went there with Miss Zhao to see what was happening. We saw many ladies gathered in front of the dressing room..."

Seeing that Gu Zhao stopped talking here and didn't say anything else, Aunt Gu opened her eyes wide.

"What happened?"

Gu Zhao lowered his head, holding the handkerchief in his hand.

"It seems that the Prince of Ningyuan and Miss Duan are having a secret meeting in there. There are also strange noises, and many ladies and girls bumped into them in the house, causing their clothes to become disheveled."

Madam Gu was just listening to gossip, but when she heard this, her expression suddenly changed.

"What did you say?"

How could Prince Ningyuan do such a thing in the house with Miss Duan?

Seeing Gu Zhao's expression, Old Madam Gu felt that Gu Zhao was young and might not understand how serious the consequences of this matter were.

"Madame Gu, please send someone to the main gate. If the Madam comes back, ask her to come to the East Courtyard immediately."

"Yes."

Old Madam Gu didn't care that Gu Zhao was a little girl and asked her again carefully.

"Grandma, when Madam Qin Hou sent me back just now, she also asked me. She said that it was a good thing that I didn't change my clothes before going back. Otherwise, I might have been the one to get sick today..."

Hearing this, Old Madam Gu narrowed her eyes slightly. At this moment, she also began to suspect Gu Zhu and Lady Ningyuan.

In such a large mansion like Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion, such a thing could happen in a dressing room. There must be something fishy going on. And with so many people, how come only the eldest granddaughter and Miss Duan had desserts splashed on them by the maid?

If this was really done by Gu Zhu, then Gu Zhu was extremely stupid.

It turns out that the one raised by my aunt is not a good person, with a narrow vision and poor means.

Gu Zhu's mother was made the legal wife by her concubine, because Mr. Zhu's wife passed away early and had no legitimate son, and Gu Zhu's mother was the concubine's daughter of a minor official.

Back then, when the old man wanted to arrange the engagement between his eldest son and Mrs. Xie, she naturally supported it. She looked down on people like Mrs. Zhu.

However, after Zhu got married, she did live a well-behaved life for several years.

In recent years, she has grown old and has not taken care of the affairs of the mansion.

This time, the two granddaughters had arranged a marriage, but the eldest daughter-in-law and the second granddaughter, for some reason, insisted on changing the marriage and made all kinds of noise. She had warned them, but it didn't seem to have any effect.

Why do they do this?

Old Madam Gu was spinning the Buddhist beads in her hand.

"Zhao'er, go back to your courtyard."

"Yes."

After Gu Zhao bowed and left, Second Aunt Gu saw Old Madam Gu. She saw that her mother-in-law had a stern face and knew that she was very angry at the moment.

"Mother."

"Send someone to ask in detail later, and then send someone to inquire outside. I want to know what happened in the Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion today."

"Yes."

Not long after, Gu Zhu and Gu Rong came back and heard that the old lady had summoned them.

"The eldest lady went to the East Courtyard?"

Hearing the lady's words, the servants in the mansion immediately nodded.

"The eldest lady came back earlier than you and went to the old lady's courtyard."

Gu Rong said anxiously after hearing what his mother said.

“Mother, will Gu Zhao talk nonsense in front of grandma?”

Gu Zhu snorted coldly and said.

"What happened today has nothing to do with us, mother and daughter. Mother hasn't settled the score with her yet. If she dares to frame us, mother will not forgive her."

Gu Rong hummed.

When they were almost at the entrance to the East Courtyard, Gu Zhu immediately spoke.

"Cry for me now."
