Zhu never expected that Minister Gu would be so cruel to her that he actually put her under house arrest and forbade her to see her son.

"Whoever of you can tell me to pass a message to the young master will get this ingot of silver."

Seeing the ten taels of silver that the lady took out, the gatekeepers couldn't help but feel moved.

This is ten taels of silver, and it will take them more than a year to earn that much.

The master said that the lady was not allowed to go out or see the eldest young master, but he did not say that the lady was not allowed to send messages to the eldest young master.

"Ma'am, I'll go."

A woman took the silver and said happily.

Gu Zhao soon found out about what happened in Minister Gu's mansion.

It would not be easy to get Nanny Zhu to change sides. Although Nanny Zhu was loyal, the lives of Nanny Zhu's entire family, as well as the lives of her daughter and son-in-law, would definitely be more important than Gu Zhushi.

Now she just had to wait patiently.

As for Nanny Zhu's desire to see Gu Qing, she certainly wouldn't stop her.

Nanny Zhu always thought that Gu Qing was still the kind-hearted young master, but she didn't know that Gu Qing was only kind on the surface. Once anything endangered him, he would turn his back on his relatives. He was as cold and selfish as Minister Gu.

She would agree to anyone that Nanny Zhu wanted to contact.

After all, only Nanny Zhu had given up, knowing that the Zhus and others would not protect her and her family. Only then would Nanny Zhu understand who was the one who could save her family.

"Master, the people are here."

Hearing that someone had arrived, Gu Zhao looked towards the door.

I saw an old woman with white hair, dressed in rags, leaning on a wooden stick, walking into the house with the support of a maid.

There was also a man with most of his hair white, wearing clothes full of patches, and his eyes were full of excitement.

A few women in their thirties or forties followed in.

"My Lord, these are Madam He, Madam Zhang, Jiang'er, Nan'er, and the others who took care of Madam when she was alive..."

Hearing Cuihua's words, the two old women were extremely excited. The old woman with the crutch had tears in her eyes and her body was trembling. The other old woman with patches all over her clothes opened her mouth and wanted to make a sound, but she only made "ah ah ah" sounds and no words came out.

Gu Zhao saw that their fingers had also become deformed.

Gu Zhu was really cruel. Not only did she blind the man, she also made him mute.

Several people fell to their knees on the ground with a thud.

"This slave has met the eldest lady."

"Ah ah ah..."

"what..."

Gu Zhao stood up and helped them up.

"Everyone, please stand up."

Seeing their excitement, Gu Zhao felt very sad. These people were all his mother's confidants and old people who served his mother. After his mother passed away, these people were targeted and persecuted by Zhu.

"Miss..."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

These people knelt on the ground and cried loudly.

"You have suffered."

Gu Zhao helped them up again.

"I will treat you well in the future..."

"Thank you, miss."

It took a while for these people to calm down.

Gu Zhao began to ask about what happened before her mother gave birth to her.

"When my mother was pregnant with me, how was the baby?"

"To answer Miss, when Madam was pregnant with you, the fetus was in good condition until the fifth month..."

Jiang'er talked about what happened to the Xie family.

"On the way to pay respects to the old lady, oil was spilled on the ground... The lady had a miscarriage..."

"When she was seven months pregnant, my wife suddenly felt unwell... so I asked a doctor from Yaowang Shop to come..."
