The in-laws can't control you, the husband won't control you, your career won't be restricted, there are no concubines in the courtyard that Xianjin doesn't want to face... She doesn't even have to take care of the children, she just has to be responsible for giving birth - look at Qu Qiushi, she is beautiful, if she goes to the talent show, she can at least get a debut position, and she also has the skills to support her family. Being a doctor is a profession that comes with its own glory...

Xian Jin lowered his eyes and pondered.

Qu Qiushi seemed to see the door of hope slowly opening to him, so he took advantage of the victory and raised the stakes. "Regarding childbirth, I am a doctor, and I know that childbirth is not easy for women. It is like walking through the gates of hell. I have witnessed many deaths and I have seen the cycle of life. If sister is unwilling and does not want to give birth, I... I can do it too. At most, I can adopt a boy that sister likes from the brothers in the clan."

The "penalty for breach of contract" of three thousand taels was probably Qu Qiushi's lifetime salary.

There is also an agreement not to have children.

Xianjin still folded his arms and pondered, making no comment.

Qu Qiushi had played all his cards, but his opponent hadn't even revealed which suit he was missing.

Qu Qiushi clenched his back teeth tightly - he was determined to get this wife.

After a while, Xianjin's voice rang out clearly in the silent moonlit night.

"It is indeed a very tempting marriage." Xianjin raised his head and smiled. The glutinous rice dumplings and hawthorn nine-ingredient digestion soup in his hands had already cooled down. "I really want to agree."

but...?

Will there be a word "but" after it?

Qu Qiushi looked at Xianjin with burning eyes.

Xianjin casually touched his hair with a calm expression, "But, from my shallow and weak understanding, no matter what kind of cooperation it is, it seems that it should be based on fairness and directness. Cooperation that starts with lies and deception usually ends in destruction."

Qu Qiushi's expression turned grim.

Xianjin also took out an oil-paper bag from his sleeve pocket and handed it to Qu Qiushi, "If you don't understand what I mean, open it and take a look."

No need to open.

With such strong flavors of peppermint and white peony, there is no need to open it to see it.

In the oil paper cloth bag were the leftover medicine residue that the dog drank on Tuesday.

Qu Qiushi raised his head slightly.

Xianjin's eyes were calm. "Master Gou suddenly changed his doctor. After drinking five doses of medicine, the leg injury that was almost completely healed suddenly recurred, and the wound was ulcerated and had a high fever. Doctor Qu asked me to dispose of the medicine residue as soon as possible, so I asked Doctor Wang who lived in seclusion in Jing County to examine it. He said that there were several medicines left in the medicine residue that were too heavy and conflicted with each other, which happened to cause the wound to not heal for a long time, and even aroused damp heat in the body, causing pus to appear in the wound."

Qu Qiushi didn't take the oil paper wrapped cloth from Xianjin's hand for a long time. Xianjin didn't get angry. He slowly took it back and said, "Later I checked and found that the old doctor was the uncle of the accountant of the mulberry paper workshop. He was also the doctor our old lady had hired for pulse diagnosis all year round and had a close relationship with the Chen family."

Qu Qiushi opened his mouth to explain.

Xianjin waved his hands repeatedly, "Don't say anything. If the old lady is setting a trap for us all to fall into, then I'd like to trouble Doctor Qu to answer me one question. When you were investigating the medicine residue that day, did you find any abnormality in the medicine prescribed by Doctor Nian?"

Qu Qiushi opened his mouth and suddenly felt that even if he had eight hundred tongues he would not be able to refute it!

If he finds nothing abnormal, it means that his skills are not good enough. If a doctor does not have good skills, he is really taking human life lightly!

If he found something unusual, why didn't he say anything at the time? He also asked Xianjin to clean up the drug residue as soon as possible...

A hint of sweetness rose in Qu Qiushi's throat.

All this one or two months of investment has been wasted!

He worked diligently and conscientiously to get to know He Xianjin, and took advantage of every opportunity to get closer to He Xianjin with every setback, and he retreated again and again until he had no room to retreat to lure He Xianjin away - but in the end, people told him that he had already been checked when he made the first move!

Qu Qiushi's face turned red, then white, then white and then red again. He didn't know where to start!

Xianjin calmly put the oilcloth bag into his arms, walked towards the inner city, and said in a clear and frank voice, "Doctor Qu, do you understand what I mean?"

"Mr. Gou is a very loyal and useful clerk in our store. He has been my right-hand man for more than a year, and he is also my best friend. You used him as bait, used his life as bait, and wove this beautiful marriage on lies and deception."

Xianjin chuckled, lowered his eyebrows and shook his head, "I'm timid. To be honest, I really don't dare to take the shots from you guys."

"Finally, wasn't the dog fine on Tuesday?"

Qu Qiushi spoke in a low voice, his voice not like a freshly picked melon, but a bit like a multi-seeded wax gourd, sticky and bland, "In business, isn't it important to judge a person by his success or failure?"
