"It's hard to say. But no matter what she does, it can't hurt you and the Zhao family. You still have to be more careful about her..."

Gu Zhao instructed Zhao Nian.

"Cousin, I've taken note of what you said."

After Zhao Nian wiped her tears, she looked at Gu Zhao with a smile. She might not listen to other people's words, but she would listen to her cousin's wife.

Everything my cousin's wife said and did was for her own good.

"Cousin, you must take me with you next time you go hunting." Zhao Nian pulled Gu Zhao's sleeve, with a pleading tone in his voice.

"Okay, okay, I'll definitely take you."

Because they were going to the farm that day, and they were also going to harvest crops that day, so they couldn't let Zhao Nian and her maids know. So she didn't call Zhao Nian.

Next time they go hunting or go to other farms, there will be no problem bringing Zhao Nian with them.

"Thank you, cousin, you are the best."

After having lunch at General Zhao’s mansion, Gu Zhao and Marquis Qin’s wife returned to Marquis Qin’s mansion.

"Madam, Madam, there is a merchant outside the door who wants to see you. They are also carrying a carriage and boxes."

As soon as he returned to the main courtyard, Gu Zhao heard the doorman coming to report.

"Merchant? A cart of boxes?"

Hearing this, Gu Zhao frowned.

"No, let them leave."

Madam Qinhou spoke.

Over the years, many businessmen wanted to establish a relationship with the Qinhou Mansion, and some came to give gifts, but they did not accept any of them.

"You must not accept anything from anyone without my and the Crown Prince's wife's permission."

"Little understands."

The concierge immediately saluted.

Butler Qin also followed him to the gate.

"Qin Shiyi, go and have a look yourself. If they drop the box, stop them and let them take the things away."

Gu Zhao had heard before that some people who gave gifts would simply leave the carriage and things at the gate of the mansion, and by the time the doormen found out, the people had already run away.

Some of the gifts were very valuable. If you accepted them and spread the news, you would definitely be impeached by the censor.

"Yes."

The merchant at the door did not expect that he wanted to see the wife of Marquis Qin and the wife of the prince's son, but they were unwilling to see them.

He asked people to drop off the things and wanted to leave, but was stopped by the guards who suddenly appeared and asked them to take the things away.

After a stalemate, he had no choice but to take his men and drive the carriage away from the gate of Qin Hou Mansion.

Not long after he left, he heard his men say that someone was watching them.

"Someone is watching us."

"Never mind, let's go back to the house."

After half an hour, they returned to the house, which was a two-story house.

"The people who were watching us got rid of them."

Hearing this, the man breathed a sigh of relief.

"Stand guard at the door and don't let anyone in."

After entering the study, the man knelt down immediately.

"Sir, we haven't delivered our gifts yet, and we haven't seen the wife of Marquis Qin and the wife of the son of Marquis Qin."

"You can't even handle such a small thing. You're such an idiot."

When he heard the adults scolding him, the man didn't dare to say anything.

After kneeling for a while, the person sitting on the chair said.

"Just back off."

"Yes."

As the man just walked out of the door, suddenly a dagger was slashed towards his neck. Before he could react, he was killed.

The men he brought with him were also lying in the yard.

Several men in black carried the boxes to the back door, loaded them onto a carriage, and quickly drove away.

A big fire broke out in the yard.
