Gu Jin followed the address Huo Sichen gave her and found his home. Ruyi thought for a moment and whispered, "Madam, isn't it a bit bad for us to come here empty-handed for the first time?"

If Gu Jin came as the owner of the restaurant, then there would be nothing wrong with that. However, Ruyi could see that Gu Jin treated Huo Sichen as his younger brother. In that case, it would be rude to come as a guest empty-handed.

Gu Jin suddenly realized, "If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten it."

As she spoke, she bent down and picked a handful of wild flowers from the roadside to make a simple bouquet, and said with a smile, "That's good."

Ruyi: “…” This is undoubtedly the style of a young lady.

Ruyi went forward and knocked on the door, and Huo Sichen's brisk voice came from inside, "Coming!"

"Sister, Ruyi, you are here, please come in."

Gu Jin smiled and stuffed the bouquet in her hand into Huo Sichen's arms, "For my aunt."

"These flowers are so beautiful, thank you, sister!" Huo Sichen smiled brightly while holding the bouquet, revealing two cute little canine teeth.

Why does this flower look familiar?

Huo Sichen led the two of them into the yard. It was called a yard, but in reality it was only an inch in size. The yard was kept so clean and tidy that there was not even a single weed.

The house was simple without too much furniture, but it was bright and clean, and there was no dust even in the corners.

"Mother, my sister is here!"

As he was talking, Huo Sichen helped a middle-aged woman in cloth clothes to walk out from the inner room. The woman looked to be about the same age as Su. She had no pearls or jade on her head, but her long hair was tied up with a wooden hairpin. Her hair was neatly bunned and her clothes were clean.

Although there were traces of time in the corners of her eyes, she had a warm and resolute temperament that made Gu Jin feel close to her when he saw her.

"Hello, aunt."

"Young Madam, you are too polite. I am just a humble woman. My surname is Zhao and my name is Su'e. You can just call me Zhao." Zhao Su'e seemed a little uneasy.

Gu Jin smiled and said casually: "Then I will call you Aunt Zhao!"

Zhao Su'e was a little surprised. Even if the powerful and wealthy were not arrogant, they would not be so kind to poor people like them. Gu Jin's attitude was beyond her expectations.

Gu Jin didn't waste any words and got straight to the point: "Aunt Zhao, I heard from Xiao Chenchen that your eyesight isn't very good."

Zhao Su'e smiled, her expression calm and open-minded without a trace of resentment, and said: "The world is so miserable, God took away my eyes, but it also saved me from a lot of sadness.

Good fortune and misfortune are actually nothing, except that I won’t be able to see Si Chen grow up in the future.”

Huo Sichen's eyes were red. He didn't want Gu Jin to see his vulnerable look, so he gritted his teeth and lowered his head.

Gu Jin pretended not to notice and just said, "I know a little bit about medicine. Aunt Zhao, can you please extend your hand so I can feel your pulse?"

"The young lady is truly knowledgeable and well-informed." In the eyes of the powerful and wealthy, the art of medicine is just something of the lowest class. Zhao Su'e did not expect that a noble lady like Gu Jin would be interested in medicine.

She slowly stretched out her arms and smiled gently, "Then I'll trouble you, Madam."

Gu Jin checked Zhao Su'e's pulse and carefully examined her eyes, then asked, "Do you usually have headaches and eye swelling?

Did you feel at first as if there was a layer of mist in front of your eyes, and your vision was often blurry, and then your vision gradually weakened? "

Zhao Su'e was really shocked. She thought Gu Jin was just acting on a whim and she was just playing with the child. However, she didn't expect Gu Jin to describe her symptoms exactly.

Gu Jin had an idea in his mind. Zhao Su'e was suffering from typical glaucoma, with high intraocular pressure causing headaches.

The good news is that glaucoma can be treated, but Zhao Su'e's eyes have been injured for so long that it may take a year or two to see results.

Gu Jin took out the eye drops from the laboratory and the medicine to reduce the intraocular pressure. "This eye drop should be used three times a day. You should close your eyes and rest for at least half an hour after using it.

You don’t have to take this medicine all the time, just take a pill when you have a headache.”

Huo Sichen originally thought that Gu Jin was just here to see his mother, but he didn't expect that she actually knew how to heal illnesses. "Sister, can my mother recover? Can she really see again?"

Gu Jin glanced at him and said, "Doctors never guarantee anything."

"But." Gu Jin smiled with her lips curved, her eyes seemed to be filled with bright and dazzling starlight, "As your sister, I can promise to let your mother see you again."

Seeing Huo Sichen happily throwing himself into Zhao Su'e's arms, Gu Jin also curled up the corners of his lips.

She was born without parents or relatives, but she will always be moved by the love of others.

Huo Sichen was filled with joy, and was as happy as a deer in the forest when he saw Gu Jin and Ruyi off.

Sister Gu Jin is really his benefactor. Not only did she give him a place to stay, but she also helped him take his mother's medical treatment. He will definitely repay his sister when he grows up.

As Huo Sichen was thinking this, he turned around to close the door and suddenly found that there was an empty space at the door.

"Oh my! Who pulled out the flowers I planted? How can you be so uncultured!"

Huo Sichen closed the door angrily and ran to Zhao Su'e, "Mother, that's great, you can finally see the light again.

My sister never lies. If she says it's possible, it's definitely possible!"

Zhao Su'e smiled, her unfocused eyes were full of calmness and indifference. She had already seen life and death, and there was nothing in this world that she could not bear.

She stretched out her hand and groped for Huo Sichen's little head, but it was also great to see Chen'er again.

"Do you like this sister very much?"

Huo Sichen nodded generously, "I like it!

Mother, my sister is so beautiful. I think she must be the most beautiful woman in the world!"

Zhao Su'e laughed helplessly, "You speak as if you have met many people."

Huo Sichen was a little unconvinced, "What I said is true! It's not an exaggeration to describe my sister as stunningly beautiful. You'll know when your eyes get better!"

Zhao Su'e just thought he was just a child and didn't say anything more.

She didn't know what she was thinking about, and looked ahead with empty eyes.

It is a blessing for a woman to be beautiful, but it may not be the case if she is extremely beautiful.

Just like her princess, who was extremely beautiful but died in the end. I hope such a tragedy will never happen again...

……

Huo Sichen's home was in a small alley, and the carriage couldn't get in, so he had to stay at the entrance of the alley and wait for Gu Jin.

Before reaching the alley, Gu Jin saw a man lying in front of him. Ruyi was so scared that her face turned pale, and Gu Jin made a gesture to keep quiet.

Ruyi quickly covered her mouth, nodded obediently, and followed Gu Jin past the man.

The man who thought he would meet a kind person: "..."

Don't you even ask a single question?

The world is really in decline!

"Please stay..." The man raised his hand and called weakly.

Gu Jin stopped, pointed at himself and asked, "Are you calling me?"

The man nodded. His lips were a little chapped and his face was covered in dust. He looked very embarrassed. "Two fairies, please be kind and give me some food. If I don't have food, I can pay for it."

Gu Jin chuckled, "You're not picky."

"Madam, this man looks so pitiful. Why don't we give him a few coppers?" Ruyi was kind-hearted and couldn't bear to see the man feeling sorry for herself.

"How is he pitiful? He has hands and feet, he's not a child, he can do anything to make a living?" Everyone wants to get something for nothing, she has to rack her brains for money every day, why can this guy just lie down and do nothing.

Jealousy transformed her beyond recognition.

The man struggled to sit up. He was thin and frail, and his face was pale, but he looked good. "You wronged me. I am willing to do anything and I am not afraid of hardship..."

It was just that when he was a waiter at a restaurant, he accidentally spilled hot tea on a customer. When he was moving goods at the dock, he lost his balance because the sacks were too heavy and ended up knocking the steward into the lake...

He set up a stall on the street to tell fortunes, but because his predictions were inaccurate, he was chased and beaten for two blocks.

He used to be a pickpocket, but was caught and beaten because he ran too slowly. He also snatched food from a beggar, but was beaten again because he couldn't win.

Now I am really hungry.

Ruyi felt even more sympathetic towards him after hearing this, "He is so unlucky, so pitiful."

Gu Jin was speechless. Is this bad luck? Is this just pure stupidity?

Gu Jin looked at him coldly and said in a bad tone, "You are good-looking. You can find a family to marry into or a rich sister to support you."

The man actually became a little embarrassed after hearing this, and lowered his head in embarrassment, "Actually...actually, I used to date a kind sister."

Gu Jin raised his eyebrows and asked casually, "She dumped you?"

The man shook his head. "My sister loves me, but her husband won't accept me."

Gu Jin: “…” Who the hell can accept you!

I have seen people with no bottom line, but I have never seen people without bottom line. He even does not let go of married women. He is truly a "talent".
