In Beijing, Gu Wanqing returned to the Gu Family with her son as soon as she received a phone call from her daughter.
After handing her son over to Old Madam Gu, she arranged for Aunt Zhang to be brought over as well, under the guise of having Aunt Zhang keep her mother company for some chatting and easing her boredom.
Afraid that her mother might become suspicious, she also claimed she wanted to redecorate her own small courtyard.
Old Madam Gu didn't think much of it and let it go, as her attention was focused on Little Chaoyun, leaving no room for other concerns.
Regarding her husband's and granddaughter's trip to Sichuan, the deep, silent nights were the most torturous, but during the day, she didn't show her worry, not wanting her daughter to worry.
