Chapter 211 - 211: Contribution



“Madam, what can we do now?” Nanny Lin, who stood by Wang Shi’s side, was on the verge of tears.

Over the years, Madam had meticulously selected countless treasures, adding them to the dowry intended for the young lady’s future marriage.

Nanny Lin had served by Madam’s side, helping with the preparations, and she understood Madam’s intentions quite well.

Is Qingluan really going to take away all the treasures?

What would they do about the second lady’s future marriage then?

With the Gu family currently in dire straits, where would they find enough dowry?

When the second lady returned and discovered this, wouldn’t she explode in anger?

“Who do you think I should ask? Useless and ignorant servant, think of a solution for your madam at once!”

Wang Shi slapped her across the face.

Nanny Lin covered her face, refraining from getting angry.

Even the formidable figures within the Gu family were helpless against the

First Lady. She was merely a lowly servant.

How could she… possibly come up with a solution?

The people brought by Gu Qingluan were all tall and strong, quick on their feet.

Each box was carried out one by one.

Wang Shi sought help from Gu Zhicheng, but he remained silent and walked away.

Gu Zhixin shook his head in helplessness and left as well.

The other members of the Gu family understood that the situation was irreversible. Staying behind would only add to their troubles, so they all walked away, one by one.

Only Wang Shi remained, her heart aching.

She watched as the carefully prepared dowry for her daughter was carried away, box by box. She did not want to leave but also found it uncomfortable to stay on.

She wished to retract her decision, but within the entire Gu family, no one could control Gu Qingluan. If she tried to back out, she’d only end up being beaten up for nothing.

After obtaining the Moonlight Jade Dew Vase, Gu Qingluan returned to the surface.

She wasn’t worried about Wang Shi secretly sabotaging her plans.

Her divine sense enveloped the entire courtyard; not even a fly could escape.

The people who remained watched as the number of boxes stacked in the courtyard grew, their jaws dropping in amazement.

“My Lady, all the boxes have been moved. There are a total of ninety-nine.” Su Lie counted the boxes and reported to Gu Qingluan, approaching her.

Gu Qingluan gently stroked the snow-white fur on Xiao Bai’s back, glanced at Wang Shi being assisted out by servants, and smiled slightly as she walked toward her.

Wang Shi glared at her with a stern expression.

“Madam, thank you very much.”

Wang Shi snorted coldly.

Gu Qingluan’s tone held a deeper meaning as she said, “If it weren’t for you accumulating these treasures, they might have all been squandered. Therefore, I can retrieve these items today, and you… have played an indispensable role.”

“You—”

Upon hearing these words, Wang Shi was so furious that she felt like she might burst with anger.

To think that after all her painstaking efforts, she had ended up preparing bridal gifts for someone else!

“Take them all away!”

Gu Qingluan’s clear voice rang out, and she turned away gracefully.

“All, Madam! Madam, what’s wrong with you?”

Wang Shi finally couldn’t bear it and fainted.

It required several trips by dozens of guards to relocate all the boxes from the Gu residence.

In the end, with over a dozen carts loaded with belongings, the procession made its way from the Gu residence to the Jun Mansion, passing through the streets.

Neighbors and passersby followed the caravan.

Drawing the attention of numerous onlookers.

Curious individuals approached and inquired about the situation.

Those who had just watched the scene eagerly described it to the passersby, and soon, the pedestrians were informed about First Lady Gu’s endeavor to reclaim her dowry from the Gu family.

The shamelessness of the Gu family became common knowledge.

The bustling scene on the street transmitted into a mansion.

Feng Tianlan had just arrived and vaguely caught snippets of “First Lady Gu” and “Gu family” in conversations. He raised an eyebrow.

Was it related to Gu Qingluan?

But he quickly brushed off the matter from his mind as he thought about the woman he was about to meet. Stepping inside, he headed forward with determined strides..
