149 Would Old General Qi Let Go of Gu Qingxue?

Gu Lingyue could not wait to get rid of Madam Qi as a burden, so she gently advised, “Mother, grandmother has always liked eldest sister the most. In addition, I’ve asked Nanny Zhou before and she said that Dafu Village has beautiful mountains and rivers. It’s a blessed place. If grandmother can go there to rest for the rest of her life, wouldn’t it be a wonderful thing?”

Nanny Zhou also smiled and came up to her. “Yes, Eldest Madam. Although Dafu Village isn’t as lively as Jing City, the Old Madam likes peace and quiet. She would definitely be at home there.”

Gu Chengbin also advised, “Mother, we all know how filial you are to grandma, but I’m really touched by eldest sister’s painstaking efforts. Please fulfill her wish.”

Madam Kou revealed a satisfied smile. “Alright then. Since you’ve said so, I can only let go. But Xue’er, I’m worried that mother will not used to living in your place. I’ll ask your fifth uncle to visit you often.”

Gu Qingxue’s distant fifth uncle, was Gu Yi, the manager of the Renyao Hall in Qingyuan Town.

Gu Qingxue saw Madam Kou was full of confidence as if everything was under her control, and her mind moved slightly.

It seemed that her previous guess was wrong.

However, since she had achieved her goal of leaving with her grandmother, Gu Qingxue perfunctorily agreed to Madam Kou’s words and lowered her head to continue eating.

Gu Chengbin was so excited that he could not believe it. He kept asking Gu Qingxue about taking him on a house call tomorrow.

“Big sister, do I need to prepare anything? I’ll go with you when the time comes,” Gu Chengbin asked impatiently.

“No need. I’ll get someone to call you tomorrow. You just have to go out with me on time. Eldest Madam, I’m full. I still have to study medicine for the imperial duke’s wife. I’ll take my leave now,” Gu Qingxue stood up after she finished speaking, she turned around and left with Lan Wen without looking back.

“She has really climbed up the social ladder, to be so arrogant.” Gu Lingyue was furious when she thought of Gu Qingxue’s cold and arrogant look.

“Second sister, don’t be angry. Wait until tomorrow when I go with Gu Qingxue to treat the wife of Imperial Duke Zhan and secretly learn her bone adjustment technique. In the future, when she is in the Dafu Village, there will always be times when she can’t serve the wife of Imperial Duke Zhan. At that time, I will be able to take her place!” Gu Chengbin said with a smile.

Madam Kou saw the smiles on her children’s faces, she picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. “This Gu Qingxue has the leisure to actually think of taking the Old Madam away with her.”

Gu Lingyue smiled and held Madam Kou’s arm. “Isn’t it good that she is willing to take care of the Old Madam? Every time I see mother have to serve that old fart in front of outsiders, my heart aches for you!”

Before the Old Madam was muddle-headed, she had never liked Madam Kou, so naturally, she did not like the pair of children she gave birth to.

Therefore, the Old Madam only loved Gu Qingxue. She was indifferent to Gu Lingyue and even Gu Chengbin, the son in the family.

Madam Kou reached out and patted Gu Lingyue’s hand. “However, we have to get Gu Yi to keep an eye on Gu Qingxue and find the right opportunity. Maybe we can also get the Old Madam to… As you know, the Qi family has always been on the same side as the Old Madam. They are unhappy that I have been in power in the Gu family for a long time.”

Madam Kou did not say it explicitly, but her children understood what she meant.

“Does mother want to use Gu Qingxue to get rid of the Old Madam?” Gu Lingyue asked.

Madam Kou’s eyes flashed with a vicious light, “Gu Qingxue didn’t come back for many years, but suddenly came back to take the Old Madam away. Do you think that if the Old Madam died by her side, Old General Qi would let go of Gu Qingxue, who killed his elder sister?”
