"Alright, then, I'll have Yue Rujing pick it up another day,"
"Yes, that would be good." Madam Lin sighed in relief and then asked, "What is the matter with your cousin returning from the palace?"
Gu Youyou said, "My cousin missed her maternal grandmother, so she asked me to pass on a message to her. After that, the grandmother fell ill. The Empress learned of this and allowed my cousin to return to visit her, but she also said that my cousin should return to the palace in a few days."
She reassured Madam Lin with a definitive statement, saying that she would go back in a few days, to prevent any endless concerns.
Hearing Gu Youyou say this, Madam Lin did not ask any further questions.
However, Madam Lin whispered into Lin Xingyi's ear at night, mentioning that Gu Youyou was not young anymore, and it was time to find a suitable family to marry her into.
Of course, Gu Youyou did not know this yet.
