"Second Miss... your illness is really strange. I can't figure out what's going on!"

The doctor let go of his hand, his expression heavy.

"What do you mean you can't tell!"

Gu Miao was close to mental breakdown and questioned the doctor excitedly.

In a short time, she was scratched with countless wounds, and her whole body was itchy and painful. Her whole face was swollen, and she looked horrifying but also a little funny.

"this……"

The doctor looked embarrassed, but under the pressure from Gu Miao, he still gritted his teeth and wrote a prescription.

Gu Miao immediately ordered someone to get some medicine, but after drinking it, his condition did not improve. Instead, it became worse. His face was swollen like a pig's head, and pus continued to seep out of the scratched areas.

There was a strange stench all over his body.

Gu Miao went completely crazy and couldn't bear it anymore. His eyes rolled back and he fainted.

…

Chen Mansion.

Pei'er was completely dumbfounded when he got the news, and he was very uneasy.

She messed up the job, and with the Second Young Lady's personality, she won't have a good life in the future.

Gu Qing noticed that she was worried, and a scornful smile appeared on her red lips.

You deserve it!

Although she thought so in her heart, her expression remained as gentle as ever.

"Pei'er, what happened to you today?"

Pei'er didn't notice her coming at all and was frightened. After he came to his senses, he smiled awkwardly, trying his best to hide his panic.

"No, I might have been infected by Qiu Rong, and I'm feeling a little unwell."

"Since you're not feeling well, then take a good rest! There are other people to do these things. It won't be too late to work again when you're well again."

Gu Qing's face was gentle, his deep pupils were shimmering with faint light, and his tone was meaningful.

Pei'er didn't understand the hidden meaning of her words at all. After thanking her, he couldn't wait to escape from her.

Looking at the panicked figure, Gu Qing's eyes grew colder, and he ordered someone to summon Nanny Li.

"Young Madam, I wonder if you have any instructions for this servant!"

Nanny Li lowered her eyelids and waited calmly for Gu Qing's order.

Gu Qingze calmly poured a cup of tea, motioned her to come forward, and pretended to hand it to her.

"Madame Li, the weather is getting colder day by day. You are old, so you must take good care of yourself and don't get sick."

"Thank you, Madam, for your consideration of this servant!"

Nanny Li took the tea with a look of panic on her face.

Only then did Gu Qing lower his hands, his eyes and eyebrows full of indifference.

"Several of my maids are not good at sex and have all caught a cold. My point is that the reputation of the mansion has just improved, and we must not let word of the servants being treated harshly get out and ruin the reputation we have worked so hard to gain."

Nanny Li immediately understood.

"Don't worry, Madam. Just let them rest and there will be good replacements for them."

"Well, let's do it now!"

Gu Qing turned around and sat back on the chaise longue, closing her eyes and pretending to rest.

Now it's Pei'er's own fault, so she can't be blamed.

Nanny Li should have understood what she meant. It would take ten days or half a month for Pei'er to "completely" recover. By then, her position would have been replaced by a trustworthy maid.

She made a mistake in delivering the message this time. The Gu family will definitely blame her and put pressure on her. She will no longer be valued here. You can imagine how tormented she will be.

But she had brought this upon herself!

Thinking of his previous life, the veins on Gu Qing's forehead began to throb.

…

The next day at noon.

Gu Qing was very surprised to hear that Mr. Huang came in person. He had roughly guessed the purpose of his visit and immediately ordered the servants to invite him into the main hall.

"Tea, please!"

The maid respectfully brought hot tea and snacks.

Mr. Huang nodded, a peaceful smile always on his face.

The next second, Gu Qing came in from outside, and the moment he saw Mr. Huang, his eyebrows instantly frowned.

"Mr. Huang, it was that gust of wind that brought you here!"

She did not sit in the main seat, but chose to sit on the chair next to Mr. Huang.

Upon hearing this, Mr. Huang hesitated for a long time before speaking.

"I thought about it last night and decided to cancel the one-month agreement we agreed on!"

"ah?"

Gu Qing's eyes were filled with surprise.

Did I guess wrong?

She was about to ask why, but Mr. Huang said hurriedly, "I, I mean, it won't take a month. I'm willing to agree to it now."

After this incident, he completely saw through Gu Qing's character. He was not only kind, but also smart, bold and resolute. He was a person who could accomplish great things.

Maybe he was indeed too extreme before.

He believed that with Gu Qing's character and talent, he would be able to become a different businessman, and maybe even change the bad habits of current businessmen.

He was looking forward to seeing that day, so he was willing to help her.

"Really? Mr. Huang, you are not kidding me, right?"

Gu Qing didn't expect it to happen so quickly. He was both happy and excited. For a moment, he felt his feet were light and a little unreal.

Upon hearing this, Mr. Huang pretended to be angry and put on a stern face.

"What are you talking about? I said it, how can it be false?"

"But since you want me to help you, you will be fully responsible for my meals from now on. If you don't do it to my liking, I will go on strike!"

He deliberately spoke to Gu Qing, but unexpectedly Gu Qing patted his chest seriously and agreed.

"Don't worry! I guarantee you'll be amazed."

The two then discussed the matter of opening a shop. Gu Qing ordered people to bring the various spice recipes he had collected recently and discussed them carefully with Mr. Huang.

"I've already ordered people to prepare these ingredients, and they'll be almost ready by tomorrow. I'll make some first so you can taste it first. Then we can work together to refine the recipe and find the one that produces the best results. Once everything is finalized and tested, we can start selling it."

"Um."

Mr. Huang fully agreed with her idea.

This spice is not an ordinary thing. After buying it, you need to burn it in the house every day. You must test it carefully and make sure it is harmless before you sell it to customers.

"Then I'll come to see you tomorrow!"

Gu Qing originally wanted to invite Mr. Huang to have lunch at his house, but was unexpectedly rejected. After asking carefully, he found out that Mr. Huang saw that Gou Zi was a talented child and wanted to take him as his apprentice. He had kept him by his side for the past few days, teaching him some basic knowledge and observing his character.

"What do you think of my decision?"

Mr. Huang looked at her and asked for her opinion.

Gu Qing nodded and praised: "Gouzi is indeed a good kid. He knows how to repay kindness, has his own ideas, and is thoughtful. He is quite good."

If it weren't for his help in the last case, I really wouldn't have been able to see through it so quickly.

Listening to Gu Qing praising the dog, Mr. Huang narrowed his eyes and smiled.

"I think so too. I just hope this child can live up to our opinions!"
