Chapter 138 Imperial Merchant Rebate 1
Guo Yuqi was driven back to the Guo Mansion by Ji Dongming, and her bruised and swollen face, upon her return, shocked the old couple greatly.
Later, when Guo Yuqi revealed the reasons, the old couple fell silent.
The Old Master of the Guo Family made it clear right away that he would not get involved and left it to Guo Yuqi and Guo Lide to resolve on their own.
Old Lady Guo felt likewise indifferent, for the only reason being that Guo Yuqi was an illegitimate daughter. A daughter married off is like water poured out, and had it not been for Ji Dongming's rise from a minor Imperial Physician to the current Imperial Medical Judge, they would not have let this illegitimate daughter return to the mansion at all.
Late that very night, Guo Lide had the servants summon her back to the mansion.
As soon as Guo Lide entered, he saw Guo Yuqi, "Yuqi? How come you're here? Instead of staying at the fine Ji Mansion, have you been discarded back to the Guo Mansion?"
