"This matter has my own opinion. It is not your wife's turn to make the decision on these matters..."

Nanny Zhu didn't expect that the wife of the Ningyuan Earl would scold her and have her kicked out of the house.

As the lady's wet nurse, she had never suffered such injustice.

"aunt."

Duan Zhen looked at Lady Ningyuan with tears in her eyes as she was moved.

"If you hadn't been plotted against, would the Ning Wanbo Mansion and the Duan family have suffered such a huge loss? Now you are Ye'er's concubine, serve Ye'er well, and if there is a chance in the future, your aunt will help you..."

Lady Ningyuan did not say explicitly that she would make Duan Zhen her co-wife or principal wife, but she had already painted the pie for Duan Zhen.

These days, her mother-in-law also had a lot of complaints about her. Because of Duan Zhen's matter, her mother-in-law scolded her many times. If it weren't for her son's outstanding performance, maybe her mother-in-law would have set rules for her again.

Thinking back to the days when her mother-in-law set rules for her, Lady Ningyuan felt a little uncomfortable.

Not long after, Lady Ningyuan sent someone to call Qin Ye.

"Yer, we still have to prepare for the betrothal gift... I heard that the Qin Marquis's Mansion sent wild geese and some other things. Our mansion will not compete with them, but we still have to send a wild goose. Otherwise, if outsiders know about it, they will think that our mansion cannot compare with the Qin Marquis's Mansion..."

"Sons listen to their mothers."

Qin Ye said immediately.

When Nanny Zhu returned to the Gu residence, she did not dare to tell the truth to Gu Zhu, and only said that the wife of the Ningyuan Earl heard what she said, but did not give a reply.

After hearing this, Gu Zhu felt that the Ningyuan Marquis would come to visit in the next two days.

As for dealing with Gu Zhao, she decided not to tell Lady Ningyuan, and wait until that day, she would tell them. She would never let anything ruin this matter.

Minister Gu also returned to the mansion at this time.

"Master, I heard that General Yun and General Yun are all dead. What happened?"

Hearing what Gu Zhu said and looking at her strange appearance, Minister Gu frowned.

"This is an important matter of the court, you women shouldn't ask about it."

In the past two days, the emperor got angry several times, demoted several people, and beat many people with sticks. Fortunately, he did not hold a high position, otherwise he would have not escaped dozens of sticks this time.

Gu Zhu coaxed Minister Gu for a while, but when she saw that Minister Gu ignored her, she became anxious.

"It hurts."

Hearing Gu Zhushi crying out in pain and tears welling up in her eyes, Minister Gu asked.

"Is Gu Zhao's scar cream coming back?"

Hearing this, Gu Zhu's voice choked up a little.

"No, she said that the Xie family's pharmacy doesn't have this medicine, so I have to find a way myself."

Minister Gu's expression became even uglier.

"You are her mother, and she is unwilling to agree to such a small matter."

Minister Gu knew how much the Xie family loved Gu Zhao. Over the past decade or so, the Xie family had sent annual gifts to the Gu residence. Each time, the gifts were several carts long.

Moreover, the things given to Gu Zhao alone were enough to fill a carriage.

However, with his tacit consent, all these things were put into the warehouse. He also asked his wife to send some of the things to the farm.

"Master, I don't know what to do to make Neng Zhaoer recognize me..."

Hearing Gu Zhu's crying, Minister Gu became even angrier.

"Don't cry. Take out 10,000 taels of silver from your account and have someone buy the scar cream back."

Minister Gu also understood that if Gu Zhu's face didn't recover quickly, if something happened to her and she was disfigured, it would be his loss of face.
