Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In order to show off, the Eldest Madam spent a lot of money on the banquet today. She invited the head chef of the best restaurant in Jing City to cook. Early in the morning, the whole house was decorated with lanterns. It was close to noon, and the guests were in an endless stream, they were all gathered in the picturesque garden.

The atmosphere in the garden was harmonious. A group of noblewomen surrounded a mother and daughter, chatting happily.

“Miss Lingyue is so lucky. I heard that Miss Lingyue wrote a poem at the poetry meet and was chosen by the crown prince. After seeing the poem, the crown prince especially went to beg the Royal Highness to agree to this marriage. It can be seen that Miss Lingyue is very important in the crown prince’s heart.” As the daughter of a minister spoke, she looked at the lady who was being sought after by everyone, and her eyes were filled with jealousy.

“Miss, you’ve overestimated Yue’er. Yue’er was just lucky enough to be chosen by the crown prince. In the future, she will become a concubine, which will also bring honor to our Gu family. It’s not a waste of her father’s teachings,” the Eldest Madam Kou, said, she gently held Gu Lingyue’s hand.

“Lord Gu left early. It’s all thanks to the Eldest Madam’s careful teaching that he managed to support such a large family business. Now that the second and third young masters have a bright future ahead of them, the Eldest Madam can rest assured,” said one of the women.

As soon as the woman opened her mouth, everyone was full of praise for the Kou family.

“The Old Madam has arrived!” At this moment, the Old Madam of the Gu family slowly walked into the garden with the help of the old woman.

Although the Old Madam was well-dressed, she was extremely haggard. Not only was she thin and weak, but her eyes were also cloudy, making her look like a fool.

Seeing this, the Kou family quickly stepped forward and held the Old Madam’s arm under everyone’s gaze. “Mother, I’ve found a place for you to sit down and rest.”

Seeing Madam Kou’s gentleness, everyone could not help but sigh.

Ever since Master Gu’s accident, the Old Madam had been silly. Only a kind person like the Eldest Madam was willing to treat her mother-in-law as her own mother.

The Old Madam raised her head and looked around in confusion as if she was looking for something. “Xue’er, why isn’t my Xue’er here?”

A cold light flashed in Madam Kou’s eyes, and they returned to their gentle appearance. They said loudly, “I know mother misses Xue’er, so I’ve sent people to ask her. Unfortunately, Xue’er is already married and doesn’t want to come back.”

Hearing this, the Old Madam lowered her head dejectedly and looked listless, which caused the people around her to talk among themselves.

The Old Madam had always been concerned about the eldest daughter of the Gu family. Unfortunately, she did not come back after she got married. She had long been regarded as an ingrate by everyone in Jing City, and people felt how difficult it was for Madam Jou.

“Madam, the medicine for the Old Madam is ready.” At this time, Nanny Zhou, who was standing next to Madam Kou, came forward and winked at her.

“I have always served mother’s medicine. Please entertain yourself. I will excuse myself.” The Eldest Madam left under the admiring gazes of the others and followed Nanny Zhou to the empty corridor.

Nanny Zhou turned around and handed the note to the Kou family. “Madam, this is a letter sent by a pigeon from the great fortune village.”

“The Old Madam just mentioned it, and the news came.” Madam Kou smiled slightly, took the note, and opened it.

The smile on Madam Kou’s face faded when she read the content of the note.

Nanny Zhou had read the content of the note in advance. She asked uneasily, “Madam Kou, the young miss has always been well-behaved. Is there something wrong now there’s such sudden commotion?”
