The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 276

Chapter 276: 156 Big Disaster Ahead (Gu Jinyu) _3

In the end, Gu Jinyu chose Ling Shuixian over the Yao family.

Her mother doted on her regardless but her brothers needed her continued effort.

“I’m sorry, sister. I just promised Cousin Shuixian that I’d help her with her homework. When I finish helping her, I’ll go see you and mother.” she said sincerely.

Gu Jiao didn’t say anything and turned away.

Gu Jinyu returned to the pavilion.

Ling Shuixian asked, “What took you so long talking with her?”

Gu Jinyu softly replied, “She asked me to go to mother’s side. I thought I’d help you with your studies first.”

Ling Shuixian was delighted that Gu Jinyu chose her.

Just then, the favorite maid of the old lady Gu came carrying a food box, she curtsied to the two, saying, “Young Miss, this is the medicine that you ordered someone to prepare for his lordship. Should I deliver it for you, or do you want to send it yourself?”

Gu Changqing fell ill.

His health was always top-notch but three days ago, for unknown reasons, he fell ill.

The old Lady Gu promptly informed Shuixian’s parents and had Ling Shuixian move in under the guise of filial piety. It was actually an opportunity for Ling Shuixian to express her affections in front of Gu Changqing

The medicine, in fact, was not prepared under Ling Shuixian’s order but by the Old Lady Gu. The insinuation was made clear by the trusted maid’s words to Ling Shuixian, to take the medicine and take care of Young Master quickly!

Ling Shuixian very much liked her cousin. Could she not understand the old lady’s plan?

“Give it to me, I’ll deliver it myself!”

She accepted the food box.

After mulling over it, she asked Gu Jinyu, “Do you want to go see big brother with me?”

Gu Jinyu’s eyes lit up.

Big brother had been sick for several days, she’d been wanting to visit. But she wasn’t allowed to enter his courtyard.

As expected, she was right to reject Gu Jiao, the opportunity to please big brother came so quickly!

The two went to Gu Changqing’s courtyard.

Unfortunately, Gu Changqing had gone to the Back Mountain for sword practice.
