Chu Yu returned to the residence, and his close guard came to report, "Master, Mei Ying from the Shao Residence came today."
"Hmm."
Chu Yu surmised that it must have been his grandmother who had gone to see Old Madam Shao, and told her about the child and how Shao He was still alive. The Shao Family must have already known about this as well.
Mei Ying was probably here to gather information; he didn't much like anyone from the Shao Family.
Chu Yu stepped into Old Madam Chu's room and, smelling the strong scent of medicinal herbs, frowned tightly as he heard violent coughing from within the bedroom.
A maid came out holding an empty bowl and bowed upon seeing Chu Yu, "I greet the Marquis."
"How is my grandmother doing?" Chu Yu had been caught up in many matters recently and hadn't visited the Old Madam in a while.
The maid respectfully answered, "Old Madam's condition has worsened; she has already taken two bowls of medicine today and often cannot sleep at night."
