Daily life of a co-wife

The next morning, Su Qingmo thought about the princes coming to visit her home, and she didn't want to get along with them. This time she learned her lesson.

Others may have nowhere to go, but can she do the same?

She didn't even need a reason to return to the Marquis of Anguo's Mansion.

After she got up in the morning, she asked the people around her to tell Old Madam Gu. After washing up, she went straight back to the Anguo Marquis Mansion.

"Young Madam, would it be inappropriate for us to do this?" Bai Zhi was a little worried.

There were guests at home, members of the royal family, but they left.

"What's wrong with that? Our Gu family is in mourning and it's not appropriate to open the door to welcome guests.

The princes must also know the situation of the Gu family.

I am a female relative, it doesn't matter whether I meet them or not." Su Qingmo said.

This time at the Marquis of Anguo's Mansion, those people were too embarrassed to come.

There is Gu Zigui in the Ningguo Marquis's Mansion, but there are no male heirs in the Anguo Marquis's Mansion.

"But..." Bai Zhi wanted to say something, but as a servant, how could she dare to make decisions for her master?

He is the prince, and ordinary people like them dare not offend him.

If the princes mind, the people in the mansion will probably blame their master.

"What's there to worry about? I don't even know them. I'd be embarrassed if I met them." Su Qingmo said with a smile.

Even her servants did not understand her status and position.

If you put yourself in her shoes, you will realize that they are also thinking for her own good.

Now it is the royal family who have to curry favor with her, not her. It is her freedom to meet them or not.

The Gu family is currently in mourning, and they will not be invited to any banquets, big or small, in the capital, which saves her a lot of trouble.

She could hide for three years under the pretext of mourning.

Su Qingmo managed to avoid several princes, but when she returned to the Anguo Marquis's Mansion, she was called to the main courtyard by the Anguo Marquis's wife.

Someone must have come to her for help regarding the elixir.

"Su, as a relative, please invite your master over so I can meet him someday." said the wife of Marquis Anguo.

There's nothing wrong with calling people in the name of relatives.

“My master is not in the capital, he has gone to travel.

As for when he came back and where he went, I don’t know.

Normally he is the only one who contacts me, but I can’t contact him anymore.”

Even her mother-in-law wanted to meet her master.

Should she find someone to pretend to be her master?

This person is not easy to find. Her master must be a hermit and an expert. Besides that, he must also have a lot of elixirs.

She didn't know any hermit master, and even if she really found one, it would be just fake and could never become true.

or?

She puts on some makeup and pretends to be her master?

"You said you couldn't contact him, so where did the pills in your hand come from?" asked the wife of Marquis Anguo.

She thought she knew everything about Su's dowry.

But now, she found that she didn't understand Su at all.

Su's successor bought some more land, and now her property is more than theirs.

The tax-free quota at the Marquis of Anguo's mansion has been filled, and she was originally envious of the quota at the Marquis of Ningguo's mansion.

As a result, within a few days, I heard that Ningguo Marquis also bought several thousand acres of land.

All these lands are registered under the name of the fourth young master Gu's wife.

This money was paid by the teacher of the wife of the fourth young master Gu. I heard that it was used to buy dowry for Su.

"My master sent it to me."

"You can't contact him, so how did he get here? Also, your master has already been here, why don't you invite him to your home?" Lady Anguohou expressed her doubt.

How could there be such a coincidence!

I really don’t know how many of Su’s words are true.

“He delivered it and left, and I didn’t have time to say a few more words to him.

As for coming to our house, my master said that the Gu family is in mourning and it is inconvenient for him to come."

Is this reason perfect?

The wife of Marquis Anguo could not continue the conversation.

"Sister-in-law, do you still have any pills in your hand?" Gu Changan asked from the side.

"Of course there is. How could I not prepare some of this kind of life-saving stuff myself?"

"Then sister-in-law, when we get married, can you... give me one as a dowry?" Gu Changan asked.

As they said this, the eyes of the four young ladies of the Gu family also lit up.

This can be done.

Even if they don't use the pills themselves, they can make a lot of money by selling them.

"Well..."

Su Qingmo was not hesitating, but was considering whether giving this thing away would be good for these girls.

They did not have the ability to protect these pills.

Having things beyond your ability is not a good thing.

"I'll give you an extra 10,000 taels of silver as dowry every day, and forget about the elixir." Su Qingmo decided.

Ten thousand taels of silver is already a lot for the girl from the Gu family.

but……

Compared to the elixir, this silver is not worth mentioning.

"Didn't sister-in-law say that you still have a lot of pills? We are your sisters, aren't we worth a pill?" Gu Changan did not give up.

Money is nothing. Pills are something that money cannot buy.

“Sister-in-law also wants us to marry well.

If we have elixirs as a dowry, my husband’s family will definitely not dare to look down on us.” Gu Changxi said.

The other two girls from the Gu family also nodded.

"Su, this elixir is not a valuable thing to you, so just give it to them." said the wife of Marquis Anguo.

She also wanted Su to present this thing as a gift.

But she was not thick-skinned enough and did not dare to speak.

“Who told you that this medicine is not valuable?

Do you think that these pills appeared out of thin air?

The more expensive the medicine is, the more expensive the medicinal materials used are. I heard from my master that this elixir doesn't make any money at all. If it is auctioned off, the only profit is the labor cost.

I really can’t give them this medicine.” Su Qingmo said.

As for the cost of the elixir...it's not very expensive.

It's just that she is unable to produce now. Now that she is living off her savings, how could she dare to give it away?

At her current training speed, it would take at least three to five years before she could make pills again.

For this pill, every time you use one, there will be one less.

"Ten thousand taels of silver is not bad." Gu Changyun said with a smile.

As a concubine's daughter of the Gu family, her father and brother are no longer around, so she is definitely not liked by her stepmother.

Before, their dowry was only one thousand and two taels of silver.

It's ridiculous that as a girl from the Marquis of Anguo's mansion, she only had a dowry of one thousand and two taels of silver.

But what can be done about this?

She is just a concubine's daughter. If she dares to make trouble, her stepmother might not give her a penny.

No one was there to help her, so it was useless for her to make a fuss.

Now that she had an extra 12,000 taels of silver, she was extremely happy.

"Thank you, sister-in-law." Gu Changan could only accept this result.

However, she blamed Gu Changyun in her heart.

If she succeeds in getting something, she won't be the only one to benefit from it.

She, Gu Changyun, is really greedy for money!
