The head mistress of the household manages all the affairs of the family, which are indeed trivial and bothersome.
Qin Yuan managing to do this is already not an easy feat.
Old Madam Gu became increasingly regretful about her harsh tone earlier and repeatedly said, "Good child, these days have been tiring for you, and Mother knows it all."
Gu Jinghui quickly changed the topic, saying, "Mother, the Xu family is fickle and motivated by profit. With such family values, I'm afraid there will be many incidents in the future. As for this marriage alliance, I'm afraid after the passing of the Sixth Sister-in-law, there will be no more connections."
Sixth Master Gu, who had long been deeply resentful of the Xu family's conduct, said, "That's for sure; it's best not to associate with them. I'm worried they might corrupt the children."
Old Madam Gu said nothing.
Qin Yuan said softly, "The knot between the Xu family and our Marquis Mansion can only be untied by finding Xu Zhen."
