Chapter 137: Mess

“I am going to check up the dowry left by my mother.” Gu Chaoyan said calmly.

Everyone in the hall became shocked.

The dowry, the stores? What was she still thinking about the stores for?

“No!” Mrs. Gu stepped forward and turned down the proposal. She had been running the stores these days, and she was never going to agree with her suggestion of getting the things from her.

Mrs. Gu turned to Madame Gu, hoping that she could turn down the proposal with her.

Madame Gu was pretty aware of the seriousness behind this matter. She opened her mouth, but she failed to utter a word.

Gu Chaoyan said, “Madame Gu promised me right? You said that if I give up my position as a lineal daughter and spare it to Gu Ruxue, then you are giving me my mother’s dowries.”

The words had just been spoken when Gu Chaoyan threw a very fixed gaze at Madame Gu and asked, “You are not breaking the promise, are you?”

As the words fell, Madame Gu was speechless. She had no idea how to answer. She did make the promise before.

That was only because Ruxue was supposed to marry Prince of Duke Changning! She needed the status as the lineal daughter so she could be honored. Also, she had not planned to give the dowries to Gu Chaoyan either.

Now… she deeply regretted it.

Chaoyan was marrying the second son of the officer of the Ministry of Revenue, who was not worse than Prince. The officer had real power and it would still work if Chaoyan kept the status as the lineal daughter.

As for the dowries… they were not going to give the dowries to Chaoyan. Those were the life support of the Gu Mansion!

At this moment, Madame Gu had no idea how to deal with the current situation. She had no idea what to say.

Seeing the scene, Gu Zhenkang found this daughter annoying. Ruxue would never have given them so much trouble. Gu Zhenkang got quite irritated. He pointed at Gu Chaoyan and bellowed. “Are you done?! Can’t you be a little bit understanding as the lineal daughter?!”

“Me? Understanding?” Gu Chaoyan threw a cold look at Gu Zhenkang. Gu Chaoyan had lost all hope with this father of hers. She had no affection left within her towards him as she was confronted with the brainless complaint. “It was you who asked me to give up the position as the lineal daughter, and I agreed with that too. But my exchange deal is to get back the doweries of my mother, which should belong to me. I have learned how to manage these stores, Dad, why am I not an understanding girl?”

Madame Gu noticed that the atmosphere was getting worse. So she said straightforwardly, “Chaoyan, that is not what your father meant.”

“…”

“What your father meant was that you are turning 15, and I have found a great suitor for you too. So you should spend the time upon learning the zither, chess, calligraphy and paintings, so you are able to find a position of your own in the society.”

“…”

“As for the stores, you have no idea how to run the business, and it has been the Gu Mansion who helped with the management too. They are doing very well, so you don’t have to worry about this. When you get married in the future, the Gu Mansion can still help you with the management. The money earned from these stories would be given back to you directly.” Madame Gu said.

Chaoyan threw a look at Madame Gu.

Madame Gu nodded seriously, making her a promise.

With this promise, Madame Gu believed that Gu Chaoyan would not mention a thing any more. The money earned from the stores would still end up being in their pockets, since the girl was marrying one of Princess Gu’s men.

Madame Gu was sure that her plan would work out.

Gu Chaoyan laughed coldly. “You are right, Madame Gu, but…”
