Hearing what Auntie Song said, Gu Chaoyan felt like crying.
Madame w.a.n.g must be the only person who treated her nicely apart from Qing! (Lord Huai might find this unfair).
Knowing that she did not have Qing with her, she asked Auntie Song to follow her so that no rumors about her could be raised. That was something Madam Gu would never do. She just expected that something might happen between them two, so the whole family could suck up to Lord Huai.
They had taken a long walk for their conversation. So it took them even longer to come back together with Auntie Song.
Back to the garden.
When Gu Chaoyan showed up again, no one dared to say anything more as they all stared at her. They were all silent and did not dare to say a thing.
That was Lord Huai who asked her to check him.
If this hideous woman did have skills to make Lord Huai thank her, maybe she could kill anyone she did not like! Look at the daughter of the minister! She lost a hand because of one order from Lord Huai, who would never pay attention to the daughters of those small officers.
Due to their fear towards Lord Huai, Gu Chaoyan found the situation a lot of fun.
No one was disturbing her or nagging about her. How wonderful it felt! So she went straight to Madame w.a.n.g.
Madame w.a.n.g took her to somewhere unknown and asked worriedly, "Are you able to solve the problem Lord Huai raised? Ah, it is our fault to have promoted
Madame w.a.n.g looked serious, but Gu Chaoyan let out a small smile. Madame w.a.n.g would pa.s.s out, if she knew that they had just been talking about marriage instead of any potential disease. However, now was not the time to tell the truth. So Gu Chaoyan said with a smile, "It is okay, Lord Huai was just asking first. I have other methods to figure it out."
Madame w.a.n.g let out a sigh of relief.
"That's good. Lord Huai is a very dangerous man." Madame w.a.n.g glanced about after she said the words, making sure that no one around was listening. Then her heart was a.s.sured.
When Madame w.a.n.g was not worried, Gu Chaoyan felt somehow relaxed.
However, thinking of what Auntie Song said, Gu Chaoyan asked, "Auntie Song said you were asking for me?"
Madame w.a.n.g shook her head and nodded.
That had been an excuse for Auntie Song to bring her here, but now she did think of something. "It is about the girls' school."
"Your engagement broke off, but you are young. So I am thinking that you can spend two years at Saint College with your medical skills. When you turn 15, our family can help you find a good family if the Gu Family wants to do nothing. With studying experience in Saint College, you might sound better even if you used to be engaged."
Girls' school? She did not have to attend that just because she needed to find a good family to marry, but since Madame w.a.n.g mentioned the school, then it meant that the school did play an important role in the land.
Seeing her staying silent, Madame w.a.n.g reminded her. "The medical apartment in Saint College recruit students for the imperial court. That would be a great honor!"
Gu Chaoyan nodded, she had been hesitating, but now she did not.
If Lord Huai was cooperating with her, she would bring bad rumors to Lord Huai because of her appearance and rumor. So she needed to do something to make the cooperation worth the while and the school might be a good choice to prove herself.
But, she needed to work on the claiming of her dowry.
