Yu Jinxi didn't let Zhang's mother and Qingti speak out about Bicao's poisoning, but Qingti couldn't swallow it and asked Bicao to behave herself sooner or later.
Every day before dawn, he would wait at the door of Yu Jinxi's courtyard. He was not allowed to speak loudly, let alone sit, waiting for Yu Jinxi to get up and go in to say hello.
She stood by to wait on Yu Jinxi while he was washing up, and even served breakfast, but Qingti wouldn't let her get close to Yu Jinxi's food, so she could only take the bowl that Yu Jinxi had used and clean up the debris.
After dinner, Yu Jinxi wanted to drink tea, and she had to fan herself aside. She also had to wait on him at noon. In the evening, Yu Jinxi had to wash up before she could go back to her room.
At the end of the day, Bi Cao was so tired that her legs hurt when she stood. When she went back, she was limping when she walked.
Even though she was tortured like this, Qingti still felt upset and asked her to wait on her in the middle of the night. When Bi Cao walked over, Qingti said no and asked her to go back.
After all the tossing, the bed was cold, and Bi Cao's heart was also half cold.
Over the past few days, Bicai's originally plump body had lost weight, and her complexion was sallow and no longer as round as before.
Bi Cao was unwilling to give up, so she took a bowl of soup while Gu Qiheng stayed at Yu Jinxi's place to eat. When she handed it to Gu Qiheng, she deliberately staggered, but before she could fall on Gu Qiheng, her body suddenly felt a force , falling straight in the other direction.
With a bang, Bi Cao fell to the ground hard, the bowl was broken, and the hot soup was spilled on her hands. She screamed in pain and almost jumped up from the ground.
Seeing her like this, Gu Qiheng frowned instantly, his eyes full of disgust.
Yu Jinxi pretended not to notice. Qingti suppressed her laughter and walked to Bi Cao with a straight face. She dragged her out and said, "You are clumsy, so hurry up and get down."
Bi Cao turned her face and wanted to plead with Gu Qiheng, but Gu Qiheng didn't even look at her.
Qingti kicked her out and wouldn't let her in again. Although Bi Cao was unwilling to do so, her hand hurt so much that she had to deal with it first.
Qingti turned around and went in, and heard Yu Jinxi talking to Gu Qiheng, "Can I still invite the doctor you invited me that day?"
Gu Qiheng's heart skipped a beat and he asked subconsciously, "What's wrong? Do you think his medical skills are not good?"
Yu Jinxi shook his head, "I think his medical skills are pretty good. After taking his medicine, my headache has gotten better these days, but I still feel groggy and want to sleep all the time."
"Ask him to come back and show me what medicine he can prescribe to cure my constant sleepiness."
Gu Qiheng lowered his head to eat the food, hummed twice, and said, "I'll do it right now, don't worry."
Seeing him looking guilty, Yu Jinxi sneered in his heart.
You still dare to eat with her, are you really not afraid of poisoning him to death?
Gu Qiheng was as perfunctory as he could be in other matters, but he was extremely active in hiring a doctor for Yu Jinxi. After finishing his talk at noon, the doctor had already entered the house in the afternoon.
Yu Jinxi listened quietly to the doctor who said that her body was fine and she just needed to take some soothing prescriptions and take good care of her.
Turning around, the doctor told Gu Qiheng that she was not in good health and might not be able to wait until the end of the year.
Gu Qiheng pretended to be sad, and then gave the doctor a large amount of money and told him to hide the news.
Qingti told Yu Jinxi everything that Gu Qiheng had done, but Yu Jinxi only had a sneer on his face and no interest at all.
The next day, Yu Jinxi complained of a headache and did not get out of bed.
When Bicao came to serve, he could only stand outside and couldn't get involved in anything inside.
Gu Qiheng also came to see him, and his words of pretense of concern made people feel sick.
He invited the doctor over again and prescribed a new medicine. After Yu Jinxi drank it, he fell asleep soon.
Qingti believed in this doctor especially in front of Gu Qiheng, and gave him money to come every day.
Gu Qiheng secretly winked at the doctor, who quickly responded.
All this was seen by Bi Cao.
Within two days, Qingti hurriedly invited someone from outside and brought him to the yard mysteriously. Even Bicao was kicked out.
But Bicao didn't give up and lay at the door to secretly observe. Only then did she realize that the people inside were doing something.
Bi Cao was afraid that Yu Jinxi was really in trouble, so she quickly went to the old lady to ask for advice.
"Did you really see that Yu Jinxi is really dying?" The old lady asked Fenxiang to beat her legs and asked with a stern expression.
Ever since Bicao was asked by Qingti to behave, Fenxiang was asked by the old lady to serve the old lady during the day and take care of Bicao at night.
Fortunately, Bicao was too tired during the day and fell asleep at night, so she had nothing to serve.
Bi Cao glanced at Fenxiang, and the old lady said, "She is just a girl. If she dares to spread nonsense, I will cut her tongue."
As soon as he finished speaking, Fenxiang's head lowered.
"I really saw it. She has been saying that she feels unwell in the past two days, and she has been more diligent in calling doctors. Today is even more extraordinary. She even invited an immortal to perform the procedure in the yard."
Bi Cao said, "She must have known that she was in critical condition now, so she rushed to the doctor in a hurry."
The old lady snorted, "She's the prodigal. She should die early and get away early to save herself from trouble. Those two old immortals from the Yu family have not given birth to a son. How can they do business with their old bones? I, Brother Heng, are the ones they hope."
The old lady's eyes gleamed at the thought that all the Yu family's property would belong to Gu Qiheng.
Her days of happiness are still to come.
Not only the old lady is thinking about it, but Bi Cao is also thinking about it, "But Yu Jinxi said before that after she died, she wanted to help me fill the house. Aunt, how should I raise this matter now?"
The old lady glanced at Bi Cao and raised her voice, "Since she said so, she will definitely fulfill her promise. You have to behave better these days. Just do whatever she asks you to do. Don't talk back."
Bi Cao opened her mouth to complain, but the old lady said, "She has only been together for a few days. You are just enduring it and thinking about the future. What are you afraid of with this little difficulty in front of you?"
The old lady's words made Bi Cao's expression become excited.
My aunt is right, a lot of good times are yet to come, so what does this little hardship mean?
Anyway, Yu Jinxi is going to die, and her hard life is only a few days away. As long as she survives it, she will be the head wife of the Gu family, a serious official wife. Those who looked down on her in the past will have to be trampled under her feet. .
What's wrong with her being a widow?
A widow can still marry a top scholar and still live a prosperous life.
Bi Cao had been so dazzled by the imagined good days that she didn't even notice that the old lady's eyes were different from before.
Everyone thought that Yu Jinxi was going to die, and even Gu Qiheng was preparing to make a move. He just waited for her to die, then sent a letter to the Yu family's parents, and then took advantage of the chaos to arrange everything.
But the next day, the Immortal brought to the house a little girl who looked as if she was carved from jade. She had snow-white skin, a small oval face that was extremely delicate, and her round eyes were like the moon in the sky, bright. Amazing.
The immortal said that this was a girl raised in the temple, and now she was adopted as the adopted daughter of Yu Jinxi to celebrate her happiness.
Before Gu Qiheng could agree, Qingti knelt on the ground and thanked the immortal with tears. Gu Qiheng had to agree even if he didn't agree.
