Poor Lady

When she got home, Qi Surong only knew that Gu's father came to visit. It seemed that it was to discuss the marriage of Gu Qi's family. Although it was a month or two later than she remembered, it was time to come.

Seeing the embarrassed appearance of her own pair of children, Qi's mother was very shocked, and asked what happened? Qi Surong just said that Su Bao accidentally fell into the lake and had to be rescued by Gu Jinyun. She didn't say that someone did it on purpose, lest her mother worry. Fortunately, Su Bao was not in serious trouble, and Qi mother gave up after a few reprimands.

Although Qi Surong didn't know who the villain was, but when she saw Liu Muhan later, she had some guesses in her heart. Liu Muhan appeared, and his sister Liu Qianer should also be nearby. In the last life, Liu Qianer did not have a head-on conflict with Qi Surong, but she and Luo Yanyi were very close. With Luo Yanyi's stupid personality, she would not make Qi and Gu's family into a mess. There must be something behind her. The "superior" instructed, and this "superior" is likely to be Liu Qian'er.

Qi Surong soaked herself in hot water and exhaled gently. She used to have an unpleasant personality and offended people without knowing it, but now she can only suffer the consequences. But she couldn't figure it out, what kind of hatred did she have with Liu Qian'er? Liu Qian'er was the daughter of the Taiwei, and her position of power was even higher than that of the Qi family. No matter how arrogant she was, she would not despise the daughter of the Taiwei. Did she guess wrong? The person behind Luo Yanyi is not Liu Qianer?

Shaking her head, Qi Surong temporarily put aside these distracting thoughts, finished bathing, dressed neatly, and went to the living room to visit the father and son of the Gu family.

Gu's father is very satisfied with Qi Surong, who is beautiful and graceful and has good manners. After seeing the ceremony, Qi Surong returned to the room and did not eat at the same table with them.

Mother Qi came to the room to accompany her, and asked tentatively, "Rong'er, what do you think of that Mr. Gu?"

"Very good." Qi Surong replied flatly while eating.

Seeing her lukewarm appearance, Mother Qi said cautiously, "Although that Mr. Gu looks a little scary, but he has a dignified appearance and a strong body, so he can be considered a good candidate for a good son-in-law."

Qi Surong didn't answer and continued to eat.

Qi's mother said again: "Mother knows that you may feel wronged, and as you are, it is not too much to marry a royal family member, but today is different from the past, your father and General Gu have an appointment first, there is no reason for our family. Reject this marriage."

"Mother, I won't marry him." Qi Surong replied firmly.

"Why?" Mother Qi thought for a while and asked, "Is it because of his businessman status?"

Qi Surong was silent.

Qi's mother sighed: "Mother knows that you have always looked down on businessmen, but this young master Gu is a scholar, and he is quite learned, different from ordinary vulgar people."

"Mother, we are doing business as a businessman now, how can my daughter look down on him?" Qi Surong put down the tableware and looked a little sad.

"Why is that?"

The mother and daughter have been married to him for ten years, and in the end, there is no benefit except for the implicated family, making him wandering and suffering for half his life.

How could she marry him with all her debts?

Besides, after leaving home, I wonder if my parents and younger brother will die in the same depression as in the previous life? If history repeats itself, what face does she have to live alone in the world? Even if you want to get married, at least you have to wait for the Qi family to erase the stain and gain a firm foothold in the capital again.

"Mother, I won't marry him." Qi Surong repeated it again.

Qi's mother sighed: "The decision on this matter rests with your father. If he agrees, you may have to marry."

"Don't worry, mother, I will discuss with my father." She is confident to persuade her father to temporarily abandon the idea of ​​marrying her off.

The father and son of the Gu family did not leave until they were determined.

After the guests left, Qi Surong found his father and mentioned the matter.

Qi's father pondered: "Then Gu Jinyun is very satisfied as a father in all aspects, but unfortunately he is a businessman."

"So, Dad doesn't plan to agree to this marriage?" Qi Surong looked at his father.

"If it was in the past, Dad would be unwilling, but now..." Father Qi hesitated.

Qi Surong said hurriedly: "Father, my daughter is still young, this matter can actually be delayed for a year or two."

Father Qi was silent.

Qi Surong switched to the underdog strategy and prayed, "Father, my daughter, please, don't marry your daughter so quickly."

"Okay, okay, don't shake it, my head is about to be dizzy by your shaking." Father Qi looked helpless. He was also quite hesitant about marrying his daughter into the Gu family, but now her daughter complied when she asked.

"Dad agreed?"

"Well, you're only sixteen years old, so it's not too late to remarry when you're eighteen." The daughter of an ordinary family is most suitable to marry at the age of sixteen, but wealthy families tend to stay for another year or two.

"However," Qi's father said again, "I wonder if the Gu family is willing to wait? His eldest son is twenty and three this year, right?"

"If he doesn't want to wait," Qi Surong lowered her head and whispered, "then it's a matter of right not to have this marriage. In the future, men and women will be irrelevant, so it's not a bad idea."

The next day, Qi's father sent a letter to inform him that the marriage would be scheduled in two years. It took two days for the Gu family to reply, and Gu Jinyun personally delivered the letter to Qi Surong's room.

At that time, Qi Surong was drawing, and suddenly saw a man appear in front of the desk, almost piercing the paper.

"You..." She stared at Gu Jinyun for a while, then asked, "How did you get in?"

"The girl is not here, and there is no guard." Gu Jinyun answered very frankly.

So you broke into your daughter's boudoir in a grand manner? Your Excellency is also a person who has read poetry and books. Is such Meng Lang's move really good?

"Why two years?" he asked.

"I'm young." Qi Surong replied.

Gu Jinyun looked at her without a trace, she was beautiful, well-proportioned, and uneven...

"What are you looking at?" Qi Surong felt a layer of goose bumps on her back, the man's eyes were as real, too presumptuous.

The woman in front of him was his fiancee, so he wanted to look at her and get close to her.

Gu Jinyun looked back calmly and said, "I don't accept this reason."

"Whatever." Qi Surong lowered his head and continued to draw, deciding to ignore him.

"Why two years?" he asked again.

Qi Surong didn't lift her head and continued to be silent.

"Why two years?" he insisted.

Qi Surong frowned slightly, then remained silent.

"Why two years?" he asked persistently.

The fingers holding the pen tightened.

"Why..."

"Master Gu!" Qi Surong finally couldn't help raising his head and glared at him, "Can't you change the question?"

"Okay." Gu Jinyun paused and asked again, "Why two years?"

Qi Surong finally broke through and threw the pen at him fiercely.

Gu Jinyun caught it quickly, but his clothes were dripping with ink.

He didn't change his face, opened his mouth: "..."

"Shut up! This matter is not negotiable, two years, it must be two years!" Qi Surong patted the table and shouted aggressively.

Gu Jinyun looked at her pretty face that was blushing because of anger, and her heart was slightly warm.

Qi Surong took a deep breath, tried her best to regain her demeanor, and said with a smile, "Young Master Gu, can I trouble you to leave the little girl's boudoir? It might be wrong for the maid to come back to see you later."

"Then I'll come back another day." Gu Jinyun put a letter on the table, "This is a reply letter from my father to General Qi, please hand it over."

"Well." Seeing that Gu Jinyun was about to leave, Qi Surong suddenly stopped him as if thinking of something, "Wait."

Gu Jinyun stopped and turned to look at her.

Qi Surong took out an object wrapped in silk from the cabinet and handed it to him: "Thank you for the wound medicine and lotus seed soup."

Gu Jinyun took the object and opened the silk cloth to see that it was a clean porcelain cup.

"You know." He affirmed.

Qi Surong looked away and said, "What's in the cup is a thank you gift."

Seeing that Gu Jinyun stretched out her hand and was about to open the lid, she hurriedly said, "Go back and look at it."

Gu Jinyun then withdrew his hand, wrapped the porcelain cup again, nodded to her, turned around and stepped on the window sill and jumped out.

If they didn't know him well, most women would probably be frightened by his unscrupulous behavior...

When Gu Jinyun returned home, he immediately opened the lid of the porcelain cup and took out the contents. It was a neatly folded piece of rice paper on which the names of dozens of medicinal herbs were listed. .

A bit of surprise flashed in his eyes, how could she know that she was often insomnia? Even if he fell asleep, a small sound would wake him up. Therefore, his expression always seemed a little stiff, all due to lack of sleep and nervousness. He had seen many doctors and used several kinds of prescriptions, but unfortunately all of them were useless, and in the end, it was all over.

How did Miss Qi know about this? Could it be just a coincidence?

Gu Jinyun stared at the prescription for a long time, and didn't come back to his senses until the six sons called.

He handed the recipe to Liu Zi and instructed: "Fry a set before going to bed."

That night, Gu Jinyun drank the decoction, and his stomach was warm. I don't know if it was a psychological effect, and he slept very comfortably.

In the last life, Qi Surong was fortunate to meet her mentor, who rescued her from the brink of death and extended her life for two years. The so-called long illness becomes a good doctor, Qi Surong also learned some ways of keeping health from his master.

In this life, when she is free, she will cook a few cups of medicinal soup for her parents to help them recuperate. The mother was timid and easily sullen; the father was addicted to alcohol and fought for several years, causing many diseases. Qi Surong wished them good health and a safe life.

However, she paid attention to other people's affairs, but ignored herself. When she came back from the temple that day, Su Bao was not in any serious condition. Instead, she contracted the cold and didn't feel sick until two days later. He was hot all over, short of breath, and lay on the bed weakly.

In fact, since his rebirth, Qi Surong has been making plans for his family, without a moment's slack. She has more than ten years of life experience, but her current body is still only a pampered girl who is no more than sixteen years old. The result of overdraft is that she is sick like a mountain.
