Chapter 246: Your Dowries

When they went through the difficult period, he was going to marry a real wife, and live an excellent life.

With that idea in mind Zhang Mingyuan became somewhat excited. He did not think that it was necessary to argue with aunt. The argument would only worsen the relationship.

So he said with a look of flattery, “Aunt, I apologize for what my mother said. Since we are all living at the Gu Mansion, we should all obey your words, Aunt, in every aspect.”

Seeing Zhang Mingyuan’s behavior, Mrs. Gu smiled. She thought that this boy learned fast. Then she turned to Mrs. Jinzhang. “Your son is much smarter than you.”

Having said these words, she left with the maid.

She had lots of time to deal with the Zhang Family and Mrs. Jinzhang. What mattered most of all was Ruxue’s dowries. She tried to have a meeting with the b**ch girl at the Qiong Pavilion in the morning, but she was gone.

Now that she was home, she was going to tell the Old Master who was going to speak with her about the dowries.

Mrs. Gu hurried off.

Mrs. Jinzhang glared at her son, but Zhang Mingyuan soon whispered to her about the plan. Mrs. Jinzhang nodded cheerfully as she heard what her son told her.

Gu Chaoyan had just arrived at the Qiong Pavilion and she was just getting ready to brew the wine when Qing came running to him. “Miss, Old Master is here.”

Gu Zhenkang? What was he doing here? As far as she could remember, Gu Zhenkang had never been to the Qiong Pavilion during the past years. He could not have brought with him any good news today.

So she put aside the brewery first and went out with Qing.

Gu Zhenkang was just seated with a straight back and threw a glance at her, instead of shouting at her like he always did. “Take a seat.”

Gu Chaoyan took a seat.

Qing habitually poured some tea to Gu Chaoyan.

Gu Chaoyan took a sip of the tea.

Neither of them spoke.

A while later Gu Zhenkang spoke. “Ruxue is now engaged with Lord Ling. You must have heard about that.”

So what?

Seeing Gu Chaoyan silent, Gu Zhenkang continued. “She is the most excellent girl in our mansion. After she marries Lord Ling, the whole Gu Mansion, including us, would need her shelter.”

“...”

“You are divorced, and you are not going to marry anyone great in the future.”

“...”

“So I decided that your dowries will all be Ruxue’s when she gets married. Well, if you are not able to find a great suitor, the Gu Mansion would support you for your life. If you are lucky enough to meet someone who would want to marry you, I will also get you another portion of dowries.”

“...”

“Ruxue will definitely thank you for your kindness. And your life in the future will be guaranteed.”

Having said this, Gu Zhenkang looked at Gu Chaoyan as he waited for her to answer him.

Well, he did not think that she would turn down this offer. That was why he was asking her just to get her answer.

Gu Chaoyan took a sip of the tea indifferently and answered briefly, “No.”

“What?!” Gu Zhenkang’s eyes widened. She was saying no to his offer? “Do you really think that you are able to marry anyone? What do you need those dowries for?”
