Chapter 17

When he woke up in the morning, Gu Jiu felt refreshed.

The bedding and other objects on the soft collapse had already been removed. Last night, everything was like a dream, as if the man had not stayed overnight.

Gu Jiu took a look and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that her sleep has always been very shallow, and she would be awakened by any wind and grass. But she actually slept so well last night, and she didn't even know when he left.

But the feeling of a good sleep a night brought her was really comfortable. Gu Jiu yawned, reached out and pulled the bell beside the bed, and called the maid in.

"Please to the lady."

Bai Shao and the others came in with basins and other items, and waited for her to get up and wash. Because Madam Zhao was older, she got up early, Gu Jiu asked her to rest in the room and wait for breakfast before coming over.

Bai Zhu has been with her for a long time and speaks boldly. When she combs her hair, she chuckled and said, "I used to think that the prince was fierce, but I didn't know that she was considerate to you. When the prince left this morning, I told me not to disturb you to rest."

She knew Gu Jiu’s thoughts, so her biggest wish was to be harmonious with Qin Zheng. Now that Qin Zheng is considerate to Gu Jiu, she is very happy for her lady.

However, after hearing what she said, Gu Jiu was not very happy and just nodded and said, "Is that so, when did he leave?"

"The prince got up before dawn, and he didn't need the servants to serve him. He went out after washing himself." Bai Zhu saw the expression of his lady and knew that she was going to listen to it, so he continued: "To be honest, the prince is really not like the children of aristocratic families. Those arrogant tempers are not even a little bit. Although his temperament is a little cold, he looks like he is not such a fat and playboy."

Gu Jiu thought to himself that he was not cold in nature, it was clearly just cold to himself.

But she didn't say this, glanced at Bai Shu from the bronze mirror, and smiled and said, "You're talking too much?"

However, there was no anger in this sentence, so Bai Zhu just stuck out her tongue and smiled and said, "Miss is not willing to listen, so I won't say it."

But Gu Jiu couldn't help but think that Bai Shu said just now that he was not a playboy like a child from aristocratic families. Instead, he was very self-cultivated. Apart from not loving her, he really had nothing to blame.

But... As a man, if he really wants to divorce his wife and marry again for the sake of his sweetheart, why would he have to kill her?

Gu Jiu felt a slight pain in his heart, which was unwilling to do so.

Her fingers curled up and bit her lip to discard all her thoughts.

Forget it, now that things have come to this point, I still want to do what I do. Today, I still have some serious things, so it is important to pick up Gu Nianlan earlier.

...

The Sanqi Hutong was still the same as yesterday. Because the carriage could not pass, they walked forward on foot when they arrived at Zhuque Street.

The nanny hugged Gu Nianlan and the group knocked on Sun Boyin's door.

"Come in."

Today, Sun Boyin changed into a long gown, but unlike yesterday, his eyes were blue and black, and his eyes were a little distracted.

When the door opened, he yawned a big yawn.

Gu Jiu took Gu Nianlan to gift Sun Boyin, while asking the nurse to put down the gift box and other items he brought, and said, "I'm sorry to bother you early in the morning. I'm really sorry. I'll apologize to you first."

The gift boxes were carefully selected by the Gu family. Thinking that Sun Boyin did not like money, he gave them all essential things for doctors.

Sun Boyin took a casual look, then frowned and said, "Didn't you say that, I don't want anything, what do you mean?"

Gu Jiu quickly smiled and said, "I know that sir is a paradise. Those yellow and white things naturally defile you. Don't worry, this is a little intention chosen by the mansion. If you can use some of our hearts, it will be considered to be our heart."

Upon hearing this, Sun Boyin was unwilling to say: "This is only once, I won't be the case."

As he said that, he pointed at Gu Nianlan again and said, "This little girl is not angry and has a weak face. The sick person you are talking about is her?"

Seeing Gu Jiu nodding and responding, he twisted his beard and stood up and said, "Come in with me."

After saying this, he got up and went to the inner room. Looking back, he saw Gu Jiu coming in, and immediately glared: "I'm going to see a doctor, I'm never allowed to watch, don't follow me!"

Gu Nianlan was timid and saw that he was so fierce, he was a little scared for a moment. Gu Jiu knew that these doctors had their own rules, so he softened his voice and comforted him: "Don't be afraid of Lan'er, let this grandpa show you, our Lan'er will be able to get better in the future, okay? My aunt is waiting for you at the door."

After being persuaded by Gu Jiu for half a day, Gu Nianlan refused to let go.

Gu Jiu was a little embarrassed for a moment and wanted to say something, but when he saw Sun Boyin, he said impatiently: "Okay, okay, then you can come in together - that old woman is not allowed to come in!"

But what I'm talking about is Gu Nianlan's nanny.

Sun Boyin seemed to be in a bad mood today, and even his tone was rushing. Gu Jiu didn't care. Seeing that he agreed to follow him, he immediately thanked him happily and walked into the inner room with Gu Nianlan.

Unlike the outdoor room, there are no windows in this room, and it is blue and sunny, and there is a light lit. Because the sunlight is not visible all year round, there is a faint smell of mold.

Sun Boyin extinguished the flint, and in the incense niche in front of him, some incense was ignited, and a wisp of blue smoke rose up.

Gu Nianlan was already timid, and when he saw the darkness in the room, he even grabbed Gu Jiu's clothes tightly.

Gu Jiu also frowned slightly, obviously not expecting that a doctor's inner room would look like this.

Fortunately, the smell of the incense is not pungent, which can dissipate a lot of the faint musty smell.

Seeing that Sun Boyin came over with the medicine box, he patted her comfortably and asked respectfully: "I'm sorry, sir."

Sun Boyin nodded as a response, put the medicine box on the table, and after opening it, he said lightly: "Little girl, stretch out your hand."

Gu Nianlan timidly stretched out his arm, while Gu Jiu held her other hand to comfort her.

I just didn't know if the mold smell in this room was too strong. After just a while, Gu Jiu felt a little dizzy.

Even Sun Boyin's voice was a little blurred: "This little girl is a little sick. Please carry her to the bed and wait for me to give her an injection."

Gu Jiu stood up when he heard this, but felt his feet soft. Fortunately, Sun Boyin quickly helped her with his eyes and hands, so he did not fall: "Thank you, doctor."

Sun Boyin glanced at her meaningfully and said, "It's okay, just wait, it's not easy to leave in my room."

But before he finished speaking, his eyes suddenly froze Gu Jiu’s waist, and he immediately let go of Gu Jiu, and his voice was trembling: “Are you a member of the official family?”

Gu Jiu felt a little bit of a headache and asked slowly: "What official family?"

Sun Boyin didn't know what he thought of, so he took a few steps back, but accidentally touched the incense niche. The incense ash inside scattered all over the ground, and the incense was extinguished.

He seemed to have no idea, just pointed at Gu Jiu and gritted his teeth and said, "It's not the Guan family, why do you wear silk clothes? I hate the Guan family the most in my life. Why didn't you say it earlier!"

Gu Nianlan had been scared by his appearance and wanted to cry, but his face was purple and swelling, but he couldn't make any sound. He just turned around and hugged Gu Jiu, and his body trembled slightly.

Gu Jiu hurriedly hugged Gu Nianlan and coaxed her. She subconsciously wanted to get angry. When she heard the other party's words, she could only suppress her anger and explained: "Sir, my mother's family is indeed not a member of the official family, but her husband's family is in politics, and it is not intentionally concealed. Besides, the official family and the people are all my people in Western Chu? Why should she stick to this?"

Upon hearing this, Sun Boyin snorted coldly and said, "That's different. I have long had rules and don't see the officials' family. You officials are all ill-hearted!"

He said this, and then looked at Gu Jiu for a while, then asked, "I'll ask you, which family is your husband's family? Little girl, this time you have to say honestly, don't miss me!"

Gu Jiuyuan knew his rules, but now he is a little worried when he sees him like this. What if he really doesn’t give Gu Nianlan a medical treatment?

Therefore, after hearing this, I no longer hide it and said sincerely: "I am not sure about it. My husband is the prince of the Duke of Ming Dynasty and Qin Zheng, who was the minister of Dali Temple at that time. I have never explained it to you clearly before, it is indeed my fault. But sir, my family is innocent and has no fault at all. Besides, why are you innocent?"
