Favoring Concubines and Destroying Wife: Reborn, I Married to a Rich Man and Destroyed His Whole Fam

Gu Zhu was delighted to hear what Minister Gu said.

"I thank my husband."

If she hadn't been injured at the moment, she would have already stuck to Minister Gu to serve him.

Soon, Gu Zhao got the news.

I know that Minister Gu gave Gu Zhushi 12,000 taels of silver to buy scar cream for her.

She had long expected that Minister Gu would give the money.

This money was her mother's dowry. After being in the Gu Mansion for so many years, Minister Gu and Mrs. Gu had long considered this dowry their own.

Gu Zhu had a lot of private money, but she still felt bad when she had to take out 10,000 taels of silver at a time. Now that her husband had given her 10,000 taels, she would show off to Gu Zhao and the people in the Gu Mansion. Let everyone know that even though she was injured like this, she was still her husband's favorite person, the one he loved the most.

Soon, the ten thousand taels of silver fell into Gu Zhao's hands.

Because that bottle of medicine was made by Gu Zhao.

Looking at the ten thousand taels of silver note, Gu Zhao immediately sent someone to deliver the ten thousand taels of silver note to the charcoal shop and asked the shop to buy another ten thousand taels of silver worth of charcoal.

With this ten thousand taels of silver, one can earn an extra five thousand taels of silver.

In the past ten days or so, because the weather is hotter than in previous years, the price of many charcoal is half cheaper than before. Some merchants are even reducing the price in order to sell the charcoal earlier.

These days, the Xie family and the people secretly arranged by the Xie family, the charcoal shop newly opened by Gu Zhaoxin, and the charcoal shop of Qin Hou Mansion, all bought two or three hundred thousand taels of charcoal.

They have already hoarded more than half of the charcoal in the capital. Some other merchants are also contacting them, hoping to ask them to take away the remaining ones.

Gu Zhao naturally would not collect the remaining ones. If he collected them all, everyone's attention would be shifted to them.

Gu Zhao took Cuihua and Honger to the East Courtyard.

As soon as I entered the hall, I saw that Gu Zhu's face was less covered than before, and her eyes and forehead were exposed.

It was obvious that she had applied the ointment on her face. Gu Rong's face also looked much better than a few days ago.

"Meet Grandmother, Madam, and Second Aunt."

Hearing Gu Zhao's words, Old Madam Gu laughed and called out.

"Zhao Er, get up."

Gu Zhu looked at Gu Zhao and said with a smile.

"Zhao'er, your father took great pains to get scar cream for me. I applied it yesterday and it's much better today. Look..."

Hearing Gu Zhu's boasting, Gu Zhao laughed.

"Congratulations, ma'am."

There will indeed be no scars, but black marks will be left on the areas burned by blisters, and other ointments will be needed to lighten the marks.

Gu Zhu and Gu Rong had to pay her tens of thousands of taels of silver.

She would take back all of her mother's dowry.

Hearing Gu Zhao's words, Gu Zhu smiled triumphantly.

"Reporting to the master and the lady, the Ningyuan Marquis's residence has sent the betrothal gifts."

Gu Zhu's mouth curled up. The betrothal gift came so soon.

When she saw the betrothal ceremony, Gu Zhu looked at Nanny Duan.

"Master Gu, Madam Gu, I am here to deliver the betrothal gifts on Madam's orders. The gifts have been delivered, and I am leaving now."

Nanny Zhu walked over and stuffed a red envelope into Nanny Duan's arms with a smile.

Gu Zhu specially called the masters in the mansion to come and check it out.

As a result, we saw a weak wild goose, and some other things were no match for the Qinhou Mansion.
