Reborn as the Savior of a Short-lived Father and Son

Mingxuan was impatient. Before the melon seeds came up, she pouted at Gu Qinghe and said, "I guess you don't know since you just came back, but I'll keep an eye on it for you."

"You also know what Li Qiulian thinks of General Shao. Almost everyone in the capital knows about it. In recent years, any woman who has had the slightest relationship with General Shao has basically retreated in fear of Li Qiulian's methods."

"But you just killed it out."

Gu Qinghe held his forehead with his hand, "Just speak nicely and stop acting like a storyteller."

This woman must have been reading a lot of storybooks recently.

"I didn't read it," Mingxuan guessed what she was thinking, and her tone of rebuttal was even a little resentful, "I have been immersed in the account books in the manor every day recently, so how can I find the time to read the storybook."

When the melon seeds came, she grabbed a handful and ate them slowly, continuing, "Li Qiulian probably thought you were no threat at first, but General Shao's performance made her a little flustered. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that General Shao must have some interest in you—"

"Wait a minute," Gu Qinghe interrupted her, "How did you know that?"

She was actually a little curious. After all, whether in the previous life or this life, Shao Wei's attitude towards her was completely the same at the beginning.

The changes in this life were entirely initiated by Gu Qinghe.

If she hadn't taken the first step forward, Shao Wei would probably have continued to hide those feelings.

Mingxuan was obviously a little surprised by her question, "Isn't it obvious?"

She pointed outside and said, "Anyway, apart from you, I haven't seen any other women enter the general's mansion."

Gu Qinghe just smiled and didn't respond.

She had heard a lot of this kind of words in her previous life.

When Wei Yanzhou was pursuing her, someone kept praising him in her ears.

"I've never seen Prince Wei care so much about anyone."

"It seems that Prince Wei is really serious this time and is willing to dismiss the concubines in your mansion for you."

During the time when she first entered Prince Wei's mansion, the two of them indeed had a sweet time together, and everyone said that Wei Yanzhou had settled down.

She also had no doubt that Wei Yanzhou was indeed quite nice to her and was probably sincere in his attitude.

But that truth is still mixed with deception, just like arsenic wrapped in honey.

Sincerity does exist, but it changes rapidly. You may be madly in love with someone in one moment, but feel disgusted with them in the next.

Gu Qinghe certainly would not doubt Shao Wei's feelings for her, nor would she reject the arrival of emotions because of the deception she suffered in her previous life.

The only difference is that in this life she has more courage to face it.

If Shao Wei changes one day, she might be sad, but she would be able to quickly get over it and move on with her life.

Ming Xuan saw that she was distracted and waved her hand, "What are you thinking about? Do you still want to listen?"

"I didn't think about anything," Gu Qinghe said, "What were we talking about? You just said that Mr. Shao and Prime Minister Li planned to arrange this marriage without telling Shao Wei?"

"I guess that's the case. You don't know how often Li Qiulian has been going to the Duke's Mansion recently. The day before yesterday, I saw her shopping with Madam Shao II."

Seeing that Gu Qinghe was sipping her tea leisurely, Mingxuan frowned, "You are not in a hurry at all. If these two families come together and ask His Majesty to finalize this marriage, even General Shao will be helpless."

Gu Qinghe shrugged, "Shao Wei can't do anything, what do you want me to do?"

She couldn't just run to those people and cry and say that she and Shao Wei were true love and beg them to fulfill her wish.

"Okay," Mingxuan also drank a sip of tea, "I'm really worried about you for nothing."

Gu Qinghe knew that Mingxuan meant well and was worried that Li Qiulian would interfere between him and Shao Wei.

So she smiled and coaxed Mingxuan, "Good sister, don't worry. If the Duke's Mansion could manage Shao Wei's marriage, it probably wouldn't have been delayed until now."

Mingxuan thought about it and felt relieved, so she continued to talk to Gu Qinghe about the various strange things she had encountered since she took over the family business.

……

The next day, Gu Qinghe went to the Beijing Medical Hall. Luo Feng stuck to her very tightly and wanted to sleep with her, but Granny Wang pulled him over and talked to him about some moral principles, so he finally gave up the idea.

But he waited at Gu Qinghe's door early in the morning, fearing that Gu Qinghe would not call him.

So today when he came to Beijing Medical Hall for a consultation, Gu Qinghe brought him along.

Fortunately, he was very well behaved. He sat quietly at the small table next to him and read his book for the whole morning. From time to time, he pricked up his ears to listen to Gu Qinghe talking to the patients. When he was bored, he practiced calligraphy. Time passed quickly.

As soon as the patient left, he immediately came over to Gu Qinghe and said, "Sister Gu is so amazing."

Gu Qinghe pulled him to sit next to him, "Do you want to learn?"

"Is it okay?" Luo Feng's eyes sparkled. He thought for a moment and shook his head. "No, I still have to practice martial arts with Daddy, and I will fight with Daddy in the future."

Whether studying medicine or practicing martial arts, they are all personal ambitions, and Gu Qinghe will naturally not force him.

After finishing her morning work, she took Luo Feng to the nearby restaurant to eat something and then see a few patients in the afternoon.

She was going to meet He Shumin in the evening to find out what was going on with Lin Wan'er.

Fate is truly indescribable. I just heard Mingxuan talking about Li Qiulian yesterday, and I met her face to face as soon as I walked into the restaurant today.

And next to Li Qiulian happened to be standing the Second Mrs. Shao.

Mrs. Hu was a very scheming person, and her thoughts started to turn the moment she saw Gu Qinghe.

His face was gentle, "Yesterday I wanted to take Feng'er out for a walk, but Miss Gu took him away. Who knew we would meet here again today? What a coincidence."

She leaned slightly towards Luo Feng, "The pear cakes here taste very good, Feng'er, would you like to try some?"

Luo Feng was very disgusted with the two people in front of him. He knew that the so-called grandmother in front of him did not like his father, so even though those people told him to call this person grandmother, he never did.

He had also seen the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion many times. This person was very friendly every time she saw him, but although Luo Feng was young, he was very sensitive.

He could see that the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion did not like him, and she approached him only for the sake of her father.

So Luo Feng took Gu Qinghe's hand and stepped back, "No, Sister Gu will buy it for me."

If she hadn't been concerned about the presence of others, Gu Qinghe really wanted to hug him and kiss him.

After all, no one doesn't like the feeling of being completely relied upon by someone.

Li Qiulian's eyes moved to Gu Qinghe, and fell on the red spots on Gu Qinghe's face, with a bit of sarcasm and contempt, "You don't really think you can become the general's wife?"
