“Sure, Third Aunt.” The patriarch responded.

He lowered his head and opened the first letter. It happened to be the one written by Gu Chengrui about the good news that Manager Liu had told them. However, Gu Chengrui reminded them to keep a low profile.

“This, is…

“Is this telling us not to return to the capital?” Mrs. Liu asked discontentedly.

“If you want to go, no one will stop you. But if you lose your life, don’t blame Chengrui for not reminding you.” Madam Qiao answered unhappily.

“Haven’t we already been exonerated? Why are we still staying in the village?” “So what if we’re exonerated? It’s not like you don’t know how complicated the relationship in the capital is.

“Even a vegetable seller might be related to the Prime Minister.

“What about you? If something happens, who will be protecting you? We should stay here obediently.”

“Isn’t there Chengrui?”

“Chengrui is counting on the Third Prince himself. He would not have told us to keep a low profile if he had the confidence. Since he highlighted this, it means the capital is not peaceful now.” Madam Qiao explained.

“Indeed. Although the princes have been crowned kings, the Emperor still hasn’t appointed a crown prince. I’m sure there will be a fight for power, so we should just stay here.” Mrs. Yao said.

When Mrs. Liu heard their words, she immediately shut her mouth. She had already been cannon fodder once and did not want to be in the same position again.

The patriarch opened the second letter but didn’t say a single word until he finished reading it. Quickly, he looked at the old madam with a worried expression.

“Brother, what’s wrong? Did something happen?” Mrs. Yao asked as she took a glance.

Seeing this, the patriarch handed the letter to her.

Mrs. Yao took the letter, and after reading it, she also became silent.

Madam Qiao noticed their silence and suddenly had a bad premonition. She asked with a dark face, “What’s wrong? If you have something to say, say it.” Mrs. Yao hesitated momentarily and answered, “Little sister passed away, and the two children are not doing well in the Yang family.

“Chengrui asked us if we had a list of her dowry. He asked us to send it over through Manager Liu if we had it.

“If not, he told us to make a fake copy quickly.

“Here is a…”

Before she could finish her words, Madam Qiao gasped for air and fainted.

“Grandma (Third Aunt)!” Gu Chengxi and the patriarch immediately rushed over and shouted.

“Chengxi, hurry up and take a look at your grandmother!” Mrs. Yao walked over and urged.

When Gu Chengxi heard that, he immediately took Madam Qiao’s pulse. A moment later, he told Gu Ziqiu, “Ziqiu, bring a needle and an oil lamp over.” He and the patriarch then quickly carried Madam Qiao into her bedroom.

Gu Ziqiu ran out and brought over the necessities when she heard this.

Gu Chengxi immediately lit the oil lamp and used it to disinfect the needle. He then stabbed Madam Qiao’s fingers and toes one after another. After letting out some blood, Madam Qiao finally woke up slowly.

However, her spirit seemed to have dissipated, and she became listless and weak.

“What else did the letter say?”

“Well, there’s also a list of dowries they copied somehow.” Mrs. Yao replied.

Madam Qiao knew then that the Yang family had swallowed her daughter’s dowry and couldn’t help but sneer. “Yang Shicheng, what a good son-in-law you are.

“The Gu family had treated him well, but this bastard returned kindness with ingratitude. How could he not even treat his own children well?”

When the patriarch heard this, he was reminded of his daughter’s encounter and did not know what to say.

“The rough-and-ready, lowly peasants are more likely to do the right thing; it’s the scholars who always let you down.” Gu Chengxi shook his head and said.

“You’re good, kid. You don’t read much, but you can recite your idioms.” The patriarch mentioned in surprise..
