Chapter 320
Gu Zezhi didn’t care about the hustle and bustle outside, at this moment he was busy helping Madam Xiao pack her luggage in the main courtyard of the Xiao mansion.
The luggage was already packed, but Madam Xiao was still a little hesitant.
“Zezhi, why don’t I… later,” Madam Xiao said hesitantly.
She had always wanted to go to her mother’s house in Jiangnan, but when she was really about to leave, she became hesitant again.
“Xiao Jiu is about to reach marriageable age, it’s not good for me to be away, and, I have to prepare a dowry for you…” Madam Xiao couldn’t help but find various reasons.
Gu Zezhi calmly patted his mother on the back and coaxed saying, “Mom, if you don’t go to Jiangnan now, there will only be more things in the future, then there will be no chance to go.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe looked at Madam Xiao with a gentle smile, and his tone sounded meaningful.
Madam Xiao: “…”
Hearing this, Madam Xiao thought so too, yes, she would have to help take care of her grandchildren in the future, and if that happens she was afraid she won’t be able to leave for several years.
She hesitated again and said, “Zezhi, then… why don’t I go?”
“Go!” Gu Zezhi said gently but firmly, “Mom, you have already informed uncles. They are waiting for you.”
“When you go to Jiangnan, pick out a dowry gift for me. The materials and jewelry from Jiangnan should be beautiful, don’t you think?”
Madam Xiao’s eyes lit up as soon as she heard this and nodded her head repeatedly, “Zezhi, it’s still you who are more thoughtful.”
She became immediately enthusiastic as she listed the famous cloth and jewelry shops in Jiangnan, and talked about where her mother ordered her dowry back then saying that most of those shops were century-old shops, and they were still in Jiangnan today thriving and prosperous…
Madam Xiao continued talking while Gu Zezhi continues to listen and occasionally asked a few words along with her, and the more Madam Xiao spoke, the more excited she became and completely forgot about her previous hesitation.
They were close and attended to Madam Xiao so they also knew that Madam Xiao wanted to go back to Jiangnan, to put it more accurately her feeling of entanglement was just because of her timidity of being homesick.
In their view, Madam Xiao was better off without a heartless husband like Duan Wangye, as long as the third master was filial to his mother, that was the most important thing.
On the seventh day of April, Gu Zezhi and Qin Jiu personally sent Madam Xiao out of the capital, the latter’s convoy was grandiose, and Gu Zezhi also sent a team of guards to escort Madam Xiao.
They sent Madam Xiao all the way to Wuliting Pavillion, and bid farewell, it was only more than half an hour later did the two of them went back to the capital.
The two rode out on horseback, so they went back on a horse ride as well.
Anyway, they were not in a hurry, so they let the horses run leisurely on their own. Qin Jiu was now quite skilled in riding, she was more relaxed now and even occasionally raised her gaze to check the weather.
The two rode and laughed all the way.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter entering the south city gate, Gu Zezhi took the initiative to mention the county mansion, which was rewarded by the emperor.
Qin Jiu’s eyes instantly lit up and asked, “Where is it?”
Gu Zezhi: “Huashang Street.”
Qin Jiu blinked her eyes and smiled: “Huashang Street is good!”
Huashang Street was only one street away from Hulu Alley where their Qin Mansion was located. It was very close!
“I think so, too.” Gu Zezhi also smiled, “but it’s a little old. It needs to be repaired.”
The county mansion bestowed by the emperor was the original marquis mansion.
“Will you accompany me to have a look?”
As soon as the words fell, a familiar male voice came from behind, “Zezhi.”
