Chapter 338 Tie Him Back to Me
Childhood sweethearts?
Gu Xiaoxi suddenly thought of Ye Lixuan. Although they were not childhood sweethearts, they had known each other for many years.
In their previous life, they had fought in the battlefield together and experienced life and death escapes.
They meet again in this life, perhaps God gives them the opportunity to rekindle their previous relationship.
"Sister Xiaoxi? What's wrong with you?" Ma Weiwei asked when she saw no further response.
Gu Xiaoxi came back to her senses and said, "I don't have a childhood sweetheart, but I have a friend who will live and die with me."
"Is it possible for it to develop to that point?" Ma Weiwei asked.
Gu Xiaoxi smiled but didn't answer, then changed the subject and said, "You don't have to worry about my affairs, just prepare for the marriage proposal, right?"
After she finished speaking, she gave Ma Weiwei some more instructions, then borrowed a carriage and went out.
The space was short of some medicinal herbs, so she needed to go to the city to find a place to replenish them.
Ma Weiwei was worried that Sister Xiaoxi didn’t know the way, so she asked Min’er to go along.
Gu Xiaoxi asked Min'er to go to the pharmacy first. She wrote down the required medicinal materials and handed it to the waiter.
This is the Chen family's pharmacy. Min'er is very familiar with the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper also knows that his young master is engaged to the young lady of the Ma family. Although he did not go to propose, the relationship between the two families has always been unusual.
Whether it was Ma Weiwei or Min'er who came, the shopkeeper was very polite.
The shopkeeper took the list from Min'er and saw the herbs on it. He said with some embarrassment, "Miss Min'er, we don't have these two herbs here. I'm afraid you'll have to look somewhere else."
"It's okay, Manager Wang, just catch what you can for me." Min'er said with a smile.
Seeing that the girl had no intention of making things difficult for him, Shopkeeper Wang ordered the waiter to get the medicine quickly.
Gu Xiaoxi took the opportunity to inquire about the prices of medicinal herbs in the imperial capital, and planned to let Zhuangzi continue to grow herbs for a living in the future.
Shopkeeper Wang asked curiously, "Who is this girl?"
Min Er introduced: "This is Miss Xiaoxi. She is not only a distinguished guest of our Ma family, but also a distinguished guest of your Chen family."
"Miss Xiaoxi!" When Shopkeeper Wang heard the name, his eyes were filled with admiration.
The shop owners of these drug stores had long heard Lao Yu mention this amazing girl, who was not only an excellent doctor, but also understood the mysterious techniques.
He excitedly bowed deeply to Gu Xiaoxi and said, "I've long heard of Miss Xiaoxi's name. I never thought I'd see her in my lifetime."
"Manager Wang, please don't be like this. I'm just a junior and I can't accept it." Gu Xiaoxi was shocked by the gift. After all, they had never met before.
"Old Yu has told us about your abilities. We are really surprised and impressed! If it weren't for your superb medical skills, our boss would probably... Thank you, thank you!" After saying this, Shopkeeper Wang bowed again and again to express his gratitude.
Gu Xiaoxi felt a little embarrassed. Before the two of them could say a few more words, they saw the waiter running over in a hurry.
"Oh no, Shopkeeper Wang, the old man of the Ye family has died from suffocation. Doctor Zhang, Doctor Zhang is helpless." The waiter told Shopkeeper Wang what had happened in a panic.
When Shopkeeper Wang heard that it was Mr. Ye, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"Don't panic, I'll go and take a look." Seeing that Shopkeeper Wang had such an ugly face, Gu Xiaoxi knew that he was not someone who could be easily appeased.
"Thank you, Miss Xiaoxi." Shopkeeper Wang bowed and asked the waiter to lead the way.
The waiter led Gu Xiaoxi to the hall, where the Ye family members were already arguing loudly.
"If you kill our old man with your medical treatment, he will definitely not let you go."
"Yes, smash your shabby shop!"
"Don't think that your eldest young master is so great just because he is the Minister of War!"
Only then did Gu Xiaoxi realize that Chen Qinian’s elder brother was so capable that he became the Minister of War at such a young age.
"Let's go!" She didn't stay any longer and followed the waiter into the house.
There was a woman crying loudly in the room. Gu Xiaoxi was annoyed and asked Min'er to throw the woman out.
"Everyone wait outside!" Gu Xiaoxi said, and pushed everyone else in.
She went forward to check on Mr. Ye's condition and quickly understood the problem.
She took out a silver needle and gave him a few injections, then slapped Old Man Ye on the back.
Phew!
Old Master Ye spat out a mouthful of blood, finally caught his breath, and opened his eyes.
Seeing that the person had woken up, Gu Xiaoxi asked Old Man Ye to sit with his back against the pillow.
Bang bang bang!
There was a knock on the door, and it was soon broken open by the servants of the Ye family.
The woman at the door, who was not sure whether she was Mr. Ye's concubine from which room, came in and pointed at Gu Xiaoxi arrogantly and cursed, "You little bitch! My master is already in such a state, and you still dare to seduce him?"
Bang!
Gu Xiaoxi would never tolerate it and slapped the concubine in the face.
The originally noisy house suddenly became quiet.
Everyone in the Ye family knew that Aunt Dai was deeply loved by Old Master Ye. In the Ye family, except for the eldest young master, everyone else was very polite to Aunt Dai.
"Go back and tell the person in charge of your family that if your old man doesn't give up sex, he won't live for more than a year." Gu Xiaoxi said word by word.
She really wasn't exaggerating, but this old man Ye was in very poor health. Who knew how many banned drugs he had taken for sex?
Hearing that he was going to die soon, Mr. Ye suddenly came to his senses: "Young lady, please don't scare me!"
Aunt Dai was furious when she heard this. If the old man wasn't lustful, what would she have to do with him? She immediately rushed over crying, "Master, this little bitch is deliberately blackmailing you. Don't listen to her nonsense!"
"Our Miss Xiaoxi would never talk nonsense. I think you are afraid that the old man will not be lustful, so you will lose his favor!" Min'er bluntly exposed Aunt Dai's thoughts.
"You, you are talking nonsense!" Aunt Dai retorted guiltily.
"I never scare people when I treat patients. Let your people pay the two thousand taels for the consultation." Gu Xiaoxi said seriously.
"Two thousand taels, who do you think you are? Why don't you just go and rob it?" When Aunt Dai heard that the medical fee was so expensive, she started complaining again.
"You don't have to give it to me, but don't regret it!" Gu Xiaoxi stood up and turned to look at Min'er and said, "Bring the medicine we want. I'll have someone collect the bill later."
"Wait!" Old Master Ye suddenly called out to Gu Xiaoxi.
Gu Xiaoxi stopped and looked at Grandpa Ye. She originally thought that the old man would repent, but she didn't expect that what he said next almost sent her away.
"Young lady, your medical skills are so great, why don't you marry into our Ye family? No matter how much silver you want, we can give it to you as long as we have it." Old Master Ye was so blind that he set his sights on Gu Xiaoxi.
Gu Xiaoxi was so angry that she laughed, pointing at Old Man Ye and scolding him, "Why don't you go look in the mirror and see your own virtue? You are obviously only in your fifties, but you look older than an eighty-year-old man.
"If you think about old cows eating tender grass every day, they won't be afraid of being choked to death by the tender grass!"
"What if I must do this?" Old Master Ye thought how nice it would be to have a concubine with excellent medical skills.
"You try it!" Gu Xiaoxi glared at Grandpa Ye coldly.
Old Master Ye looked at his men and said, "Tie them back here!"
