Since Meng Zhao had read the novel, she must like the protagonist. If it were just the words, it would be fine, but when she actually saw how difficult the protagonist's childhood was, Meng Zhao couldn't just ignore it. She would help if she could.
Holding the things Meng Zhao handed her, Madam Gu's eyes reddened, and she said with tears in her eyes, "Good, good, Zhao Zhao, I really don't know how to thank you."
