Chapter 29: Heart is dripping blood

Gu Jiu got up, ready to leave.
"Wait!"
Master Xu gritted his teeth, "I will buy the prescription."
Gu Jiu looked back at him, "I'm sorry, the price of the prescription has increased."
"you……"
Doctor Xu was so angry.
Gu Jiu asked him: "Do you still buy a prescription? Two thousand taels, no two."
"You and I……"
Gu Jiu kindly reminded, "If I don't buy it, I will leave."
"Hold on, I'll buy it!"
Doctor Xu's heart was bleeding, his eyes staring bitterly at Gu Jiu.
Gu Jiu took out the prescription, but did not hand it to Doctor Xu immediately.
She said, "Doctor Xu doesn't need to look at me like this. It is a very cost-effective business to spend two thousand taels to buy his own life.
Could it be that Dr. Xu thinks that his life is not worth two thousand taels? "
Master Xu suppressed the smell in his throat, and said, "Has anyone in the Cishi Mansion seen Miss Gu being so calculating? If Mrs. Gu knew about this, I don't know how she would feel."
Gu Jiu smiled and looked at each other with profound eyes, "I have long heard that Doctor Xu and my wife have a good relationship.
Today's love, is Doctor Xu going to tell his wife? Tell your wife, will you die? "
Doctor Xu suppressed the sudden fear in his heart, and lowered his head and said, "I want to live a few more years. Don't worry, Miss Gu, what happened today, I don't think it happened before this room."
Gu Jiu nodded and smiled: "It's so good."
After receiving two thousand taels of silver notes, Gu Jiu bid farewell to Doctor Xu.
"Doctor Xu stopped and didn't need to take me out personally."
Doctor Xu stood at the door, watching Gu Jiu's back disappear behind the curtain with complicated eyes.
They all underestimated Gu Jiu. Everyone will pay the price for a small watch.
He only paid a price of two thousand taels, which is already very cheap.
Thinking about this, Doctor Xu smiled relievedly.
No matter what, he really shouldn't be involved in the private affairs of the big family.
Out of the pharmacy and into the bullock cart.
Seeing that Gu Jiu was safe and sound, Qingmei breathed a sigh of relief.
"The servants are almost scared to death."
Gu Jiu smiled and said, "I said long ago that nothing will happen. You are just worrying."
"The girl is too daring, how can the slave and maid not worry about it. Let's go home quickly."
Gu Jiu nodded.
Li Chuan waved his whip and the ox cart slowly moved towards the governor's house.
Gu Wei and Su Zheng got into the carriage, both of them looked excited.
"Sister, you are amazing."
Gu Jiu smiled and said, "It's nothing. Doctor Xu has a guilty conscience. If he wants to settle things down, he has to spend money to buy peace."
Su Zheng glanced at Gu Jiu deeply.
He knew that Xiao Jiu's cousin was smart, clever, not panic in the face of things, and had everyone's tolerance. But she still underestimated Xiao Jiu's cousin, she didn't expect her to have such a scheming trick.
When Xiao Jiu's cousin asked him to pretend to be a small servant, he was still worried.
Worried that Xiao Jiu's cousin's plan will fail. Worried that Xiao Jiu's cousin is too young to be controlled by Doctor Xu.
Unexpectedly, during the whole process, Dr. Xu was overwhelmed by cousin Xiao Jiu, and kept running at the rhythm of cousin Xiao Jiu.
This method, so sharp and effective, is really true.
Su Zheng said with emotion: "The cousin is really amazing. I am ashamed and need to learn from cousin Xiaojiu."
"Cousin Su don't praise me, I'm almost embarrassed."
Gu Ling laughed, "She is my sister, of course she is amazing."
That tone, that appearance, don't mention it.
Gu Jiu said, "For the next thing, please ask cousin Su. This is five hundred taels, please accept it."
Su Zheng waved his hand and refused, "Too many. Twenty-two is enough."
Gu Jiu pursed his lips and smiled, with warm eyes in his eyes, "Twenty taels is enough. Cousin Su has to go to the capital to study, rent a house, eat, meet friends, apprentice teachers, everything costs money. I still feel five hundred taels I’m afraid it’s not enough."
Su Zheng said quickly: "How can I ask for money from Xiao Jiu's cousin, no, no."
Gu Jiu smiled and said, "Cousin Su don't rush to refuse. These five hundred taels, of which two hundred taels, are thanks to cousin Su for his help.
The other three hundred taels were loaned to my cousin by my brother and me. In the future, my cousin won the fame and got money, so he would even pay me the profit. "
"Helping is a matter of course, how can I be paid. No, no."
Su Zheng still refused to accept the money.
Gu Wei was annoyed, "Cousin Su, don't be nerdy. We are cousins, why are you so polite."
"Because I am a cousin, I can't accept the money."
Gu Ling was very irritable, "You..."
Gu Jiu stopped Gu Yu and said to Su Zheng: "Cousin Su is a gentleman, and my brother and I understand.
It's just that we are away from home, and my cousin has no money by his side. If we get ridiculed, how can we bear it?
Could it be that Cousin Su disliked the money coming from the wrong way, and would rather ask strangers to borrow money instead of asking us to borrow money? "
"I never meant it."
Gu Jiu said, "In this case, Cousin Su might as well accept the five hundred taels.
We are cousins ​​and should have helped each other. In the future, my brother and I will depend on Cousin Su in many places.
Unless Cousin Su doesn't want to involve us anymore, he refuses these five hundred taels again and again. "
Su Zheng smiled bitterly, "Cousin Xiao Jiu is so good, so if I don't accept these five hundred taels, it would be a very heinous crime."
Gu Jiu blinked and smiled mischievously, "Cousin Su, please accept it quickly."
Su Zheng nodded and accepted five hundred taels of silver notes, "After I go back, I will write an IOU to cousin Xiao Jiu."
Gu Jiu said, "That's not in a hurry. In the next few days, cousin Su and Xie Xian will have to work hard."
Su Zheng smiled and said: "It's okay. It happens to live next door with Xie Xian, so it's convenient to come and go."
"Cousin Su, please."
"The cousin is polite."
Gu Jiu still had 1,500 taels left in his hands. Compared with the previous embarrassment, it was a huge sum of money and could do a lot of things.
How to use these thousand five hundred taels?
Open shop for business?
However, Gu Jiu has a worry. How long can his father be Jinzhou governor?
In case it takes six months and a year, your father wants to be transferred to another place. At this time, opening a shop will be too troublesome to deal with.
Moreover, there is no useful person around her, who can help her open the shop, and has to hide from everyone in the palace.
After thinking about it, I can only temporarily give up the plan to open a shop.
The bullock cart was parked at the back door of the Provincial Government.
Gu Jiu has changed into the dress of the maid.
After bidding farewell to her brother and cousin Su, Qingmei led the way and quietly entered the mansion through the back door.
Take the remote paths and avoid everyone.
When passing by the bamboo forest, I suddenly heard someone talking.
"What did my cousin tell me to come out for? When someone saw me, I should gossiping."
"I haven't seen my cousin for a few days, and I miss it very much. I can't bear it for a while, please forgive me for my cousin."
This voice is clearly Gu Yue and Xie Xian.
Gu Jiu raised his finger, "Shhh!"
Qiao Mei hurriedly covered her mouth, looking frightened.
How could the third girl and Xie Gongzi meet in such a remote place.
Could it be doing shameful things.
