NovelEnglishChapter 496: Mother’s Request
Madame Min was worried, because Young Duke was once seriously injured and barely breathed. And he was not cured by an imperial doctor, but by someone else. Now that he could get on his feet, he looked rather skinny and he was not doing as well as before.
If he collapsed at the Min Mansion, then their Min Mansion could not possibly afford that.
Mrs. Duke North was not an easygoing person. If she pushed the blame to the Min Mansion, then the Min Mansion would not have a peaceful day for decades.
Madame Min thought for a while and was about to ask her maid to get a doctor…
When Zheng Chenyi shook his head and said, “I am fine, I have to go now.”
Then he started to head outwards.
Many ladies were very disappointed by this.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMadame Min, however, let out a sigh of relief.
Madame Min went to see Young Duke off at the door, and let out a sigh of relief seeing Young Duke walking out of the mansion safe and sound.
She wiped the cold sweat on her forehead.
Officer Min thought something terrible had happened. “What is going on? What happened.”
Madame Min wiped away the sweat and became totally relaxed.
She slightly shook her head. “Nothing, Young Duke was here and asked about ladies from the Gu Family. I noticed that he was wearing a terrible expression on his face, and I believed that he was not completely cured. So I was worried that he would collapse at the Min Mansion and Mrs. Duke North would come and keep pestering us. Ah, it was lucky for Min Liang not to have gotten engaged with Young Duke, otherwise things would get complicated at this point.”
Officer Min sighed. He was aware that his wife was telling the truth, so he said nothing more.
They could have established an engagement ages ago, but his wife believed that Mrs. Duke North was too possessive, so she became quite hesitant about the proposal, which somehow saved their daughter.
“Alright, since he is gone, just drop the concern.” Officer Min consoled her.
Madame Min nodded and continued to receive the guests.
She was the only person working for the whole mansion, and she was always very busy.
Mrs. Min was someone she could not bother, because she did not care about what happened at the Min Mansion.
She sighed, then she left.
The banquet was going well, and the disappointed Young Duke returned to the mansion with The Saint Divine Anecdotes in his arms.
And the day just passed by.

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen Gu Zhenkang learned that Princess Yunxi and Madame Min were going to be Gu Chaoyan’s witness and host, one day had already passed. He hurried directly to the Qiong Pavilion.
He had barely visited this shabby place throughout his life.
He kept complaining as he arrived here. “Chaoyan, you should change where you live, what about moving to the front yard? This Qiong Pavilion is so distant and shabby, it takes us a long time to find you.”
Gu Chaoyan had not expected that Gu Zhenkang would come to her in this way.
However, hearing what he complained about, she frowned. “If the Qiong Pavilion is as terrible as you have claimed. Why did you allow my mother to stay here?”
Gu Zhenkang showed a flattering smile to her. He did not like Gu Chaoyan. She was the only daughter who kept talking about those undesirable things.
Ms. Lin had been gone for so many years and she still kept mentioning her.
“Your mother requested to stay here,” Gu Zhenkang said guiltily.
“What do you want?” Gu Chaoyan asked calmly.
