Dowry
Biên tập viên: Dragon Boat Translation
Gu Zhixin initially had no concern for whether Wang Shi lived or died, but his elder brother had given him explicit instructions before going into seclusion to find a way to save Wang Shi.
He didn't have the confidence to confront his elder brother now.
Moreover, Wang Shi was Gu Lingxue's birth mother. If anything happened to her, Gu Lingxue would surely blame him when she returned.
He didn't want to offend his niece, Gu Lingxue.
He paced back and forth in the hall when suddenly a thought struck him.
"The dowry! Big sister-in-law must have prepared a dowry for that girl, Gu Lingxue, right?"
"Well... the dowry was already entrusted to the Second Miss, and only she has the key. I can't open it," the steward replied cautiously.
Gu Zhixin furrowed his brow. "What about Gu Qin'er and Gu Si'er's dowries?"
"They had very little dowry remaining, as the master had borrowed most of it to purchase the Universe Stabilizer."
