At this time, Gu Zhiyi was counting the silver in the treasury, thinking about how to use it. Having money can indeed bring happiness, but for her, enjoying it while accumulating more merits is the real happiness.

Suddenly, she had an idea and quickly calculated with her fingers. Then her face became heavy: "Luluo, put away the account book and leave early."

Luoluo was stunned. Although she didn't understand, she didn't ask any more questions and obediently put away the account book. Gu Zhiyi had changed her clothes as quickly as possible and walked towards the door.

At the gate of the Ningguo Mansion, Gu Zhiping had already praised Madam Xie a lot, and it would be rude to continue like this. She estimated the time and thought that Xie Xun should also return disappointed.

Old Madam Xie felt that this girl was a little strange. She could sense that Gu Zhiping had come with bad intentions, but she kept saying nice things to him. This contrast made her feel extremely torn.

When Gu Zhiyi arrived, what she saw was Gu Zhiping's smug face and Old Madam Xie's confused expression.

"Mother." Gu Zhiyi stepped forward, supported Madam Xie's arm, and secretly injected a trace of spiritual power to help Madam Xie calm down.

Gu Zhiyi's eyes revealed deep concern, and she gently placed her hand on Mrs. Xie's pulse, sensing the subtle changes in her body. Mrs. Xie's old face was a little tired, but her eyes revealed tenacity and wisdom.

"Mother, how are you feeling lately?" Gu Zhiyi asked softly, her tone full of tenderness and concern.

Madam Xie smiled slightly and shook her head. She gently held Gu Zhiyi's hand with her fingers, and her eyes revealed a trace of relief: "Zhiyi, you are a filial daughter-in-law. I am still in good health, but time is not forgiving, and I am a little overwhelmed."

A warm feeling surged in Gu Zhiyi's heart. Although she had been married into the Xie family for several years, the old lady had never been picky at all.

"Mother, don't worry, I will take good care of you and let you enjoy your old age." Gu Zhiyi's eyes were firm and her tone was full of determination.

The two walked into the inner room and sat down on the exquisite rosewood chairs. Old Madam Xie looked at Gu Zhiyi, a trace of consideration flashed in her eyes, and she slowly said: "Zhiyi, I heard that you have been studying some ancient books recently, I wonder how the progress is?"

Gu Zhiyi smiled slightly. Old Madam Xie had always been supportive of her academic research. "Mother, I am studying an ancient book on spiritual power cultivation. It records many cultivation methods. I hope it can help you."

Mrs. Xie's eyes flashed with admiration, and she gently patted Gu Zhiyi's hand: "Zhiyi, you are a smart child, I believe you can research something useful."

Gu Zhiyi lowered her head slightly and secretly made up her mind to find a way for Madam Xie to keep fit.

At this time, a maid came in with a pot of hot tea in her hand.

"Madam, Madam, the tea is here." The maid said softly.

Gu Zhiyi took the teapot, poured a cup of tea for Mrs. Xie herself, and handed it to her. Mrs. Xie smiled slightly, her eyes full of gratitude.

"Zhi Yi, you are getting better and better at taking care of me." Old Madam Xie said softly, her tone full of relief.

Gu Zhiyi smiled slightly, but felt a little uneasy.

Mrs. Xie's health was getting worse, and she was powerless to do anything. She secretly made up her mind to find a way to restore Mrs. Xie's health.

One day, Gu Zhiyi was reading an ancient book in her study, when suddenly her eyes lit up and she found a record about healing with spiritual power. She immediately copied down the record and rushed to find Old Madam Xie.

"Mother, I found a method that might be useful to you!" Gu Zhiyi said excitedly, the paper in her hand trembling slightly.

Mrs. Xie took the paper and read it carefully. A glimmer of hope gradually flashed in her eyes. She raised her head and said to Gu Zhiyi: "Zhiyi, you are such a smart child. Although this method is a little difficult, I believe that as long as we work together, we will succeed."

……

Gu Zhiyi gently stroked Madam Xie's back: "Mother, don't get angry over someone who is not worth it. She doesn't understand human nature. You can't let her anger ruin your health, right?"

Gu Zhiyi gently stroked Mrs. Xie's back, her tone full of concern and comfort. Mrs. Xie slowly opened her eyes, her eyes revealing deep helplessness and sorrow. She sighed softly, held Gu Zhiyi's hand, and whispered: "Zhiyi, you are right, I am an old person, I should not worry about these trivial matters anymore. But I can't let it go in my heart."

Gu Zhiyi smiled slightly, her eyes full of determination, she said: "Mother, don't worry, I'm here for you. I will take care of everything and let you rest assured."

Old Madam Xie looked at Gu Zhiyi, with a hint of relief in her eyes. She knew that this woman was her lifelong support. She gently patted Gu Zhiyi's hand, and then said, "Zhiyi, I want to talk to you about the marriage of the old family."

Gu Zhiyi was slightly stunned, and then understood. The eldest son was the eldest son of the Xie family and the grandson that Old Lady Xie loved the most. However, his marriage had never been satisfactory, which was also a pain in Old Lady Xie's heart.

"Mother, don't worry, I will take care of this matter personally." Gu Zhiyi said in a firm tone, with a determined light flashing in her eyes.

For a moment, the room was quiet, with only the slight sound of massage and the breathing of the two people. Gu Zhiyi's strength was moderate and her technique was skillful, making Mrs. Xie feel extremely comfortable. She opened her eyes slightly and looked at Gu Zhiyi, her eyes full of gratitude.

"Zhiyi, you are so kind to me." Old Madam Xie said softly.

Gu Zhiyi smiled slightly and said, "Mother, this is what I should do. As long as you are healthy, that is my greatest wish."

The two chatted about some family matters. Mrs. Xie gradually felt tired. She gently closed her eyes and soon began to breathe evenly. Gu Zhiyi looked at Mrs. Xie, smiled slightly, then gently covered her with a blanket and got up to leave.

When she reached the door, she looked back at Madam Xie, who was peacefully lying on the bed, and said to herself, "Mother, don't worry. I will do my best to let you live a happy life."

Gu Zhiyi walked out of the room and came to the front hall. The housekeeper of Xie Mansion was waiting for her. When he saw her coming out, he hurried over and whispered, "Madam, there are guests outside."

Gu Zhiyi was slightly stunned and asked, "Who is it?"

The housekeeper hesitated for a moment and said, "It's the young master of the Zhao family."

Gu Zhiyi smiled slightly and said, "I understand. You can go down first."

The housekeeper responded and retreated. Gu Zhiyi stood there, thinking to herself, "What is the young master of the Zhao family doing here?"

Gu Zhiyi walked into the living room and saw the young master of the Zhao family already sitting there. When he saw her come in, he stood up and said with a smile, "Hello, Madam Gu."

Gu Zhiyi smiled and said, "Hello, Mr. Zhao. What do you want to see me for?"
