Eat the whole family? I emptied the storehouse of the Marquis' Mansion and married the crippled

"Sister Jintang, you are so beautiful that even the sons of princes would marry you."

"But I can't. If I don't marry cousin Ziqiu, my grandmother will probably make me marry someone else as a concubine for the sake of the family."

As she spoke, Gu Wan'er fell to her knees with a thud.

Ye Jintang was dumbfounded. What was going on?

"What are you doing, cousin? Get up quickly."

"As long as you promise not to marry cousin Ziqiu, I will get up."

Good guy, this is a threat.

"If you don't want to get up, then just kneel down."

Ye Jintang ignored Gu Waner and turned away.

Now it was Gu Wan'er's turn to be stunned. She thought Ye Jintang was young and thin-skinned, and would agree to everything she said if she knelt like that.

As a result, Ye Jintang didn't buy it at all.

"Cousin, please don't leave."

When Gu Wan'er saw Ye Jintang leaving, she stopped kneeling and immediately stood up and followed him.

She didn't care whether Ye Jintang listened or not, and kept crying beside her.

"My father is a useless man. He is not good at studying or doing business. Everything in the family is decided by my grandmother."

"My grandmother said that I am smart and the Gu family will have to rely on me in the future."

"But I know that my grandmother loves my brother the most. She wants me to marry into a wealthy family so that she can support my brother in the future."

"Our Gu family is not a famous family. There is no good marriage opportunity for us if we want to marry into a wealthy family. Now I hope that cousin Ziqiu can marry me. He is my only way out."

Ye Jintang didn't respond to Gu Wan'er's words, but after listening to her chattering for a long time, she came to her senses.

Gu Wan'er had been testing her from the very beginning of the relationship.

She gave her a warning as soon as they met. If she was a weak person, she would definitely be scared.

Since her plan failed, she started pretending to be pitiful.

She is a person who doesn't like to cause trouble. Gu Wan'er and Wen Ziqiu can just solve their own problems. She doesn't want to get involved in this mess.

Ye Jintang suddenly stopped and turned to look at Gu Waner.

"Don't follow me. I have never thought of marrying cousin Zi Qiu. I just said that on purpose to piss you off. I will be going to the capital in a few days."

"what?"

Looking at Gu Wan'er's surprised expression, Ye Jintang suddenly felt a little pitiful for her. She had to worry so much about her marriage at such a young age.

Inexplicably, Ye Jintang thought of King Qin. She was very satisfied with this marriage. If she could outlast King Qin, she would be a free person in the future.

Ye Jintang didn't wait for Gu Wan'er to react and strode forward, not wanting to be entangled by her anymore.

Unfortunately, she seemed unaware that Ye Jintang wanted to get rid of her, and soon she chased him to Ye Jintang's courtyard.

"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, cousin. Please don't be angry."

As she spoke, Gu Wan'er stepped forward and bowed to Ye Jintang.

Gu Wan'er, who was crying just now, now turned into a lady from a noble family and bowed to Ye Jintang very gently to apologize.

The daughter of a scholar has so many thoughts. Ye Jintang has some expectations for the people in Danyang Marquis' Mansion.

The ladies didn’t know whether each of the girls living in the inner courtyard of the back house had eight hundred thoughts in their minds.

"Cousin, please don't be angry with me. I have no choice but to resort to this desperate measure."

"I'm a little curious, does cousin Ziqiu like you?"

Ye Jintang picked up the osmanthus tea on the table and took a sip. She had been with Wen Ziqiu for such a long time, but she had never heard him mention that he had a woman he liked.

"The marriages of both families were arranged by the parents and matchmakers. It doesn't matter whether cousin Ziqiu likes me or not. I just want the position of Madam Wen."

Knowing that Ye Jintang would not marry Wen Ziqiu, Gu Wan'er was obviously not that hostile towards Ye Jintang.

She sat opposite Ye Jintang and asked with a little confusion, "Sister, why don't you want to marry cousin Ziqiu? If you return to the Danyang Marquis' Mansion, you may end up becoming a pawn for the Danyang Marquis' Mansion to win over other people."

"My cousin sees things clearly."

"It's understandable that a noble lady from a wealthy family who doesn't have parents who love her has a harder time than a girl from a humble family like us."

"I have my own plans, but you can rest assured that I won't compete with you for cousin Zi Qiu."

"Thank you."

Gu Wan'er sat here with Ye Jintang for a while, and then the nanny from the front yard came over to invite her.

Ye Jintang thought she was going to leave, but she didn't expect that she would stay and even live in the courtyard next to hers.

"Let your cousin stay here with you, so you have company."

Old Master Wen specifically called Ye Jintang to his study to discuss this matter.

We can no longer let a little girl like Ye Jintang stay alone in the backyard all day.

"Grandfather makes all the decisions."

"Wan'er is also a pitiful girl. You should get closer to her."

Old Master Wen knew that Ye Jintang had little experience in the affairs of the royal family, so he took this opportunity to ask Gu Wan'er to talk to her more about how the girls in the royal family get along with each other.

"it is good."

Ye Jintang agreed verbally, but he didn't like her very much in his heart.

It's too tiring to get along with a little girl with so many schemes. She still prefers silly girls like Luzhu and Lianqiao.

As the weather gets colder, getting up early every day becomes the most painful thing for Ye Jintang.

"Miss, we agreed yesterday that we would get up early today to practice Ba Duan Jin together. I have already had breakfast, why haven't you gotten up yet?"

Ye Jintang pulled the warm quilt and turned over, saying in a muffled voice, "I haven't woken up yet, let me sleep a little longer."

"A day's plan begins in the morning. Young lady, you must not waste the good time in the morning. Let's practice a section of Ba Duan Jin together. I guarantee that you will feel refreshed."

Ye Jintang wanted to stay in bed, but Liuli kept nagging and didn't give her the chance.

In the end, the confused Ye Jintang could only practice Ba Duan Jin with her.

When Wen Ziqiu heard that Ye Jintang was exercising so hard, he specially sent her a set of training clothes.

After hearing about it, Gu Wan'er, who lived next door, also came to practice Ba Duan Jin with Ye Jintang.

She also grew up in the backyard, and her health was not much better than Ye Jintang's.

After two days of doing this, she was exhausted.

What’s more, Wen Ziqiu didn’t send her any training clothes, which was quite depressing.

"Miss Gu is working too hard. She exhausted herself just to get Master Wen's attention."

Liuli brought two medical books to find Ye Jintang and couldn't help gossiping about Gu Waner.

"You can see what your cousin is thinking. How could a smart man like cousin Ziqiu not know? Why didn't your cousin react at all?"

Taking the medical book from Liuli's hand, Ye Jintang slowly flipped through it.

After seeing how skilled Liuli was at face-changing surgery, Ye Jintang began to think about studying medicine with her.

At this moment, Liuli brought the medical book because she wanted to teach Ye Jintang how to recognize medicinal herbs.

"No way. If Master Wen doesn't like Miss Gu, then forcing the two of them together is not a marriage, but an enmity."

"Stop gossiping and help me figure out how to read and memorize these two medical books."

Ye Jintang was also a medical student back then, but he studied Western medicine, which had nothing to do with Chinese medicine.

Now looking at the names of various medicinal herbs in the medical books, she was confused and didn't know where to start.
