147 Hongmen Banquet

“Then I’ll come back tomorrow to thank His Royal Highness. Lil’ Han, take your medicine obediently. I’ll bring you some snacks tomorrow.” Gu Qingxue almost ran away.

It was not until she left the prince regent’s manor that Gu Qingxue calmed her heartbeat and walked toward the Gu residence.

Just as she reached the Gu residence’s gate, Gu Qingxue saw Nanny Zhou standing at the gate.

The wounds on Nanny Zhou’s face had not recovered yet, and her old face was still covered with palm prints. She looked very miserable.

Gu Qingxue did not need to guess to know that Nanny Zhou was waiting for her there.

“Nanny Zhou, why are you standing at the entrance instead of serving the Eldest Madam?” Gu Qingxue asked with a smile, pretending that she did not know the other party’s purpose.

Nanny Zhou’s eyes were filled with malice when she saw Gu Qingxue.

However, this malice was gone in a flash, she forced a smile on her old face, “I’m here to wait for the Eldest Miss. The Eldest Madam said that the Eldest Miss went to the imperial duke’s manor to treat the imperial duke’s wife today. It was really tiring, so she specially prepared a table full of good dishes and invited the Eldest Miss to bring the Young Masters and Young Miss to have dinner together.”

“Thank you for the Eldest Madam’s kind offer. I’ll be there in a moment. You can leave first,” Gu Qingxue said with a smile.

Nanny Zhou could not help but glance at Gu Qingxue when she saw how decisive Gu Qingxue was in agreeing to her request.

“What’s the matter? Do you have something else to do?” Gu Qingxue asked in return.

Nanny Zhou hurriedly shook her head. “It’s nothing. I’ll take my leave first.”

After Nanny Zhou left, Gu Qingxue caught sight of Lan Wen from the corner of her eyes.

Lan Wen walked over quickly and said, “I wanted to come and pick up the Eldest Miss, but I didn’t expect to see Nanny Zhou waiting at the door, so I stood in the dark and stared at her.”

“It seems that you heard what I said just now?” Gu Qingxue took the soup from Lan Wen and warmed her hands. “There’s no rush. Let’s go and pick up Lil’ Lin and the others first.”

“Eldest Miss, are you really going? The Eldest Madam has been trying to harm you,” Lan Wen said anxiously.

Gu Qingxue smiled faintly. “I know. I’m going to see what she can do this time.”

Lan Wen looked worried, unable to see through Gu Qingxue’s thoughts.

Gu Qingxue returned to her residence, but she did not bring her three children with her. Instead, she changed her clothes and went to the main hall with Lan Wen.

In the main hall, Madam Kou was waiting for Gu Qingxue with her children.

Gu Qingxue had just entered with Lan Wen when Gu Chengbin greeted her with a smile, “Big sister is here.”

The hair on Gu Qingxue’s back stood up.

Today, Gu Chengbin’s words were gentle and his smile was bright, which made him look disgusting.

Gu Qingxue nodded indifferently and walked to sit across from the three of them.

The smile on Madam Kou’s face was flawless, “Xue’er, why didn’t you bring Lin ‘er and the others here today?”

“They had too much fun in the morning. When I went to check on them, they were already asleep, so I didn’t have the heart to disturb them,” Gu Qingxue said indifferently.

She would not bring three cubs to the Hongmen banquet together.

“Big sister has thought it through. If the children are noisy, it will affect our conversation,” Gu Lingyue said with a faint smile.

Lan Wen stood aside and listened. She was so angry that she almost rebuked Gu Lingyue.

What did she mean by children being noisy? The Young Masters and Young Miss were the most obedient and sensible children she had ever seen. They were also kind-hearted. They were much better than the hypocritical adults in this family!

Gu Qingxue looked at Gu Lingyue with a cold look in her eyes.
