After being married off, she was favored by the powerful official

Gu Jin and Xie Ran had lunch in Su's courtyard. Su was so happy to see the young couple getting along so well.

It is said outside that Gu Jin is uneducated, arrogant and domineering, and that he is so infatuated with Xie Qing that he even neglects himself. Therefore, Gu Jin does not have a good reputation.

But Su felt that Gu Jin was not only beautiful and intelligent, but also a very kind and protective girl, otherwise she would not have helped her vent her anger in Songhe Hall.

"Jin'er, from now on, just live a good life with Ran'er and ignore the gossip outside.

We two are your family. If you have been wronged outside, just tell us and we will definitely help you get justice." Su was straightforward. She would treat Gu Jin wholeheartedly since she had chosen her.

Gu Jin's eyes flickered slightly. After two lifetimes, the title of "family" still felt strange to her.

In her previous life, she grew up in an orphanage, and in this life, both her parents had passed away. Su's words slightly touched her cold heart.

As soon as she returned to Jinxiu Courtyard, Gu Jin walked to the table and wrote a prescription. She blew the ink dry and said to Xie Ran, "Find a reliable person to get these herbs."

Xie Ran took it. The handwriting on the letter was powerful. His eyelashes fluttered slightly but he only asked in a gentle voice: "Is this the prescription for me?"

Seeing Gu Jin nod, Xie Ran was silent for a moment and then said, "Are there too many herbs?"

Other doctors prescribe medicine by the dollar, but she prescribes by the pound. Even if he takes the medicine three times a day, he will probably have to take it for a year or two.

"It's not for drinking, it's for soaking!"

"Bubble?"

Gu Jin nodded and explained, "I have already removed most of the toxins from you last night, but there are still some toxins in your body. If you don't remove them, you will be weak and prone to illness in the future.

Besides, you are still weak now, so it is not suitable for you to take medicine. You can take a medicinal bath to remove the remaining toxins in your body. It is not only safe but also can strengthen your body."

Yesterday, Gu Jin not only gave Xie Ran an injection of antibiotics, but also gave him an injection of antidote she made herself. However, the poison has already spread to Xie Ran's internal organs, so it will take some time to completely cure it.

Xie Ran had never heard of this kind of treatment, and Gu Jin was a person full of suspicion.

"Why is Madam treating me so well?"

Gu Jin thought for a moment and said, "Because mother said we are a family."

Xie Ran narrowed his eyes and said, "Madam, I really feel ashamed for thinking so much about me."

Gu Jin blinked, raised his head and looked at Xie Ran seriously, "Do you really feel guilty?"

Seeing Xie Ran nod, Gu Jin curved his lips and smiled, and immediately spread out his palm, "Then give me the consultation fee!"

Xie Ran: “…” Where are the family members you promised me?

Gu Jin said very considerately: "I have thought about it seriously. After all, our marriage is fake. It is normal for you to feel bad after I saved your life many times.

How about I treat your illness and you give me money, this way no one will feel indebted to anyone else, how about that? "

Gu Jin's eyes were bright and dazzling without a trace of impurities, full of desire for money, so pure that Xie Ran was speechless for a moment.

Did she marry him just to make money?

"Okay." Xie Ran came back to his senses and nodded in agreement, "Then how much does Madam want?"

Gu Jin frowned and thought seriously, then looked up at Xie Ran's eyes and asked, "Do you want to pay per session or pay monthly for treatment?"

Xie Ran: “…”

Finally, Xie Ran paid five thousand taels of silver for a month's conditioning treatment, and Gu Jin happily accepted the banknote.

But Xie Ran paid so readily that she couldn't help but wonder if she had asked for too low a price. It seemed that she had to go to the street to check out the prices another day.

"Young Madam." Ruyi knocked on the door and walked in, saying respectfully, "Third Madam, Miss Mei'er is here."

Gu Jin raised her eyebrows, then she remembered that Mei'er was her head maid. She and Gu Rou got on the wrong bridal sedan, and the maid naturally followed the wrong person.

However, Mei'er is in Cao's camp but her heart is with Han. She was involved in all the embarrassing things the original owner did. Gu Rou might have ulterior motives in sending Mei'er here.

Xie Ran saw that she had some personal matters to attend to, so he stood up and said softly, "I'll go to the study first and come back to accompany you later."

"Okay." Gu Jin nodded with a smile.

The two looked like a real young couple.

Mei'er stood at the door waiting for Gu Jin's call. When she heard the noise, she looked up and saw Xie Ran coming out of the house. Her originally frowned brows suddenly relaxed and her eyes were full of surprise.

Oh my god, Third Young Master Xie is so handsome, even more handsome than the eldest young master.

"Third Young Master." Mei'er bowed hastily, her voice so gentle that it seemed like it could squeeze water out of it.

Xie Ran just glanced at her indifferently, and until his figure disappeared, Mei'er was still staring in his direction in a trance.

"Sister Mei'er, the young lady is calling you in!" Ruyi knew that Mei'er was Gu Jin's maid, so she was very polite to her.

Mei'er glanced at her arrogantly and walked into the house.

Gu Jin was leaning on the couch, flipping through a book. His slender fingers looked even whiter against the yellowed pages.

"Miss, I finally see you again!" Mei'er took out a handkerchief and wiped away her non-existent tears, choking with sadness.

She thought Gu Jin could still fool her like before, but Gu Jin didn't even look at her. He just said calmly, "I thought you didn't want to come back because you couldn't bear to leave your second sister!"

Mei'er paused in her sobs and quietly looked up at Gu Jin, but the book covered most of Gu Jin's face, so she couldn't see Gu Jin's expression at the moment.

She didn't want to come back at first. After all, the Second Madam and the Second Miss had promised her that after the matter was done, they would take her in as the eldest master's concubine, which would be much more promising than staying with Gu Jin.

But when she saw Xie Ran just now, her heart was shaken. The Third Young Master was gentle and handsome, so it might be nice to be with him.

"Miss, you are wronging me by saying that. I grew up with you, young lady, and I only have you in my heart. It was really the Second Miss who deliberately made things difficult for me, which is why I came back late." After Mei'er finished speaking, she felt a little unsure, as she always felt that Gu Jin was a little different from before.

Gu Jin put down the book and looked up at her. Mei'er felt guilty when she saw those black and white eyes. Suddenly, she saw Gu Jin smiled with curved lips, "I see. I misunderstood you."

Mei heaved a sigh of relief when she saw this. It seemed that she was wrong and the eldest lady was still as stupid as before.

With a smile on her face, she walked forward intimately and reached out to take Gu Jin's book, "What book are you reading, Miss? Is it the new storybook?"

Gu Jin said nothing, casually handed the book to Ruyi, and said coldly: "You are my eldest maid, you must be more obedient when you come to the Marquis's Mansion, so as not to be laughed at by others."

Mei'er paused and pulled her hand back, "I know I was wrong, I won't do it again."

Mei'er was not convinced in her heart that this silly young lady had actually learned to put on airs!

"And." Gu Jin opened his lips and looked at Mei'er indifferently, "Your name is not good. Mei'er Mei'er is cursing my husband and I to have no children."

Ruyi shuddered, she was familiar with this part!

Mei'er's shoulders slumped, and she forced a smile. "Plum blossoms grow in the bitter cold. Didn't Miss say before that my name is nice?"

"Plum blossoms are too bitter, I don't like them." Gu Jin held up his small and delicate chin and thought seriously, then suddenly smiled and said, "Let's call him Duobao, it sounds auspicious!"
