Sitting on the couch in the middle of the hall was an old man with a ruddy complexion, wearing a dark purple embroidered gold tunic patterned long coat, and a small purple gold sandalwood bracelet on his wrist, which made him look noble.
Those loving eyes were full of excitement. He put the tea cup in his hand on the low table on the couch, got up and walked over quickly.
"Girl Jin, it's really Girl Jin who's here."
The warmth from his hands made Gu Jinzhao's eyes feel warm, guilt surged in his heart, and his voice couldn't help but choke.
"Grandma, I'm sorry. Zhao Zhao was so ignorant in the past, but Zhao Zhao will come to see you often in the future."
The old lady looked at Gu Jinzhao with red eyes, patted her hand, and pulled her to sit down on the couch.
"Grandma has never blamed you. I heard that you fell into the water and are you feeling better?"
Gu Jinzhao looked at the kind old man, feeling even more guilty, and at the same time he despised his former self even more. She gently leaned her head on her grandmother's shoulder and spoke in a soft voice.
"Grandma, don't worry. Zhao Zhao has practiced martial arts since he was a child and is strong."
Seeing her grandfather and grandson making love, Mrs. Song's eyes were filled with joy and she spoke at the right time.
"Zhaozhao, please stay for lunch."
Gu Jinzhao came here to ask his grandmother for help. Her task was time-limited.
He pursed his lips and thought for a moment, looking hesitant. Her grandmother treated her so well that she didn't know how to say the words that came to her lips.
"Girl Jin, what trouble did you encounter?"
Who is the old lady? You can tell at a glance that there is something on Gu Jinzhao's mind. In addition, she suddenly came to the door and her attitude was very different from before, which made her a little more guessing.
When Gu Jinzhao heard this, he raised his head and met those loving eyes, which seemed to be able to see through the heart of people.
"Grandma, Zhaozhao really wants to ask your help for something."
After telling the story again, she felt a little uneasy.
She was afraid that grandma would think that everything she did today was to ask her for help and that she was scheming.
"This is nothing."
The old lady smiled lovingly and looked at Aunt Jin next to her: "I remember that Dr. Jiang should take a day off today. Please take my post and ask Dr. Jiang to come to the house."
The old lady and Doctor Jiang have a very good relationship, and the two families are very close.
Gu Jinzhao felt relieved when he saw that his grandmother was not angry.
"Mom, please accompany Zhao Zhao to the Lin Mansion later."
The eldest lady looked down on Marquis Jing'an. When their younger sister passed away, they wanted to take Zhao Zhao over, but Marquis Jing'an declined. He turned around and made his concubine his wife, and gave Zhaozhao to his stepmother to raise.
The stepsister seemed to be very nice to Zhao Zhao, but she couldn't hide it from them. This was a perfect compliment. If something happened this time, the step-sibling would not stand up for Zhaozhao, otherwise Zhaozhao would not come to beg his mother.
"You've always been on the safe side. I'll thank you for going on a run with Zhao Zhao later."
The eldest daughter of the Lin family has the support of the prince, and the Lin family has gradually established a foothold in Shangjing in the past few years, but her character is not very good. She was afraid that they would embarrass Zhao Zhao, so she could feel more at ease with the eldest daughter-in-law following her.
Seeing the two people who thought so well of her, Gu Jinzhao was moved in his heart. This is the true family and affection.
After Doctor Jiang arrived, he agreed to this matter and followed the two of them to the Lin Mansion.
When the others left, the old lady's expression darkened and she was no longer as loving as before.
"Let someone check what happened to Jin Yatou during this time."
A person will not suddenly change his temper!
In the back house of Lin Mansion, Lin Qingyue leaned lazily on the imperial concubine's chair, her face rosy but not at all pale and weak.
She reached out and took the grapes that the maid had peeled, put it into her mouth, and asked quietly.
"What's going on at the Duke's Mansion and Marquis Jing'an's Mansion?"
"I heard that the maid in the Duke's Mansion has died, and the Duke's wife has not sent anyone over yet. As for the Marquis of Jing'an's Mansion, Miss Gu was punished to kneel in the ancestral hall and was released this morning after she fainted."
The eldest maid Qingmei handed over the peeled grapes with a flattering smile on her face: "Marquis Jing'an is indeed a smart man, then Miss Gu will definitely come to apologize to you in person."
When Lin Qingyue heard this, the corners of her mouth raised slightly. It felt so wonderful to have the former heroine kneel at his feet.
There was a knock on the door, and the voice of maid Qinglan came in from outside.
"Girl, the eldest lady of the Tutor's Mansion is here with Miss Gu."
