The next day, in the morning, Ye Xinran reluctantly saw Ye Liang and his wife off.
He also gave Gu Yanxin 100,000 taels of silver so that she could buy what she needed in the mansion.
Gu Yan was very happy and became the real housekeeper of the palace. Because of her experience of exile, she learned to be thrifty.
She found a few children from the side branches of the palace to help manage the palace. If she didn't understand something, she wouldn't bother Ye Xinran, but would go and discuss countermeasures with the old princess. She did it in a very good manner.
When Ye Xinran was free, she remembered that the eldest princess was still waiting for her to see a doctor. After thinking about it, they were all women, and in this world, there were no doctors who specialized in treating women. So she came up with the idea of training a group of female doctors. By the way, she could open a few clinics that only cater to women.
After coming up with an idea, Ye Xinran took note of it. Then he asked Jianshu to invite the princess.
In the afternoon, the eldest princess and the old nanny came.
Ye Xinran invited them to an unoccupied room.
"How is the princess doing lately?" Ye Xinran asked the eldest princess who looked unhappy.
The princess smiled bitterly, "It's getting more and more painful. I've consulted many doctors and got many medicines, but it's not getting better."
Ye Xinran nodded, "Princess, please unbutton your clothes. Let me show you!"
The eldest princess is a little embarrassed!
Ye Xinran didn't rush them and waited slowly. There were only three of them in this room. The eldest princess would figure it out.
Finally, the eldest princess gritted her teeth and unbuttoned her clothes.
Ye Xinran smiled, "Don't be afraid, Princess. Let me take a look. There's something growing here. It won't heal with medicine!"
The eldest princess nodded and was determined to do it. She was really suffering from the illness and really hoped to get better soon.
Ye Xinran carefully examined the eldest princess and finally confirmed that it was indeed a breast nodule, which was already very large and had to be removed.
She pointed out all the problems and let the princess decide for herself.
The princess had to go back and think about it. After all, she was still a little afraid of surgery.
Not long after the eldest princess left, Zhu Qian came unexpectedly.
Ye Xinran welcomed her into the front hall.
"Zhu Qian, why are you here at this time?" Ye Xinran asked curiously.
Zhu Qian smiled, "I'm here to offer a betrothal gift!"
Ye Xinran froze, "Give a betrothal gift?"
Zhu Qian nodded shyly, "I've already told my parents, and they both agree that I want Daoqin to marry into my family!"
He handed over a list and said, "This is the betrothal gift list. Daoqin has no elders. You are his master, so you have the final say!"
"Okay, but is it necessary to be so anxious?" Ye Xinran was a little confused. Curiously, she took the list and took a look.
One hundred thousand taels of silver, a pair of antique vases, a box of South China Sea pearls, a pair of red coral trees, a set of mahogany furniture...
Wow, what a big deal! Ye Xinran still admires Zhu Qian's family background!
Zhu Qian glared at Ye Xinran, "How dare you say that to me! You are younger than me, how long have you been married? Besides, if you hadn't messed things up, I would have been married, okay? A full man doesn't know the hunger of a hungry man!"
Ye Xinran felt embarrassed, thinking that it was she who had disrupted the martial arts competition for marriage.
"Also, I'm the only daughter in my family. There are so many people who are eyeing my family's property and want to plot against me, so I have to get married quickly, and it would be best if I could have my own children sooner. This way I can avoid a lot of trouble." Zhu Qian frowned.
Ye Xinran nodded, coughed lightly and said, "So when do you plan to get married?"
"There will be a good day in a few days!" said Zhu Qian.
"I also need to ask Daoqin what he thinks! If he has no objection, I want to get married as soon as possible! By the way, my parents are also here, waiting for us to get married. They plan to go sightseeing after I get married."
This is really urgent, Ye Xinran thought to herself, but was too embarrassed to ask again.
"By the way, where is the prince?" Zhu Qian frowned and said, "I heard that you were assassinated and the prince is in a coma! At this time, I am still talking about our marriage. Isn't it inappropriate?"
Ye Xinran shook her head and soothed him, "The prince is fine, it doesn't matter, just wait for Master and the others to come, and the prince will recover. You get married, just think of it as a blessing for the prince!"
"Oh, that's good!" Zhu Qian breathed a sigh of relief. She was indeed very anxious. After all, she was the head of the Zhu family and had many responsibilities. Getting married and having children was the most important thing.
The two talked about some things that happened after they separated.
"Dong Yishu is dead!" Zhu Qian said, "He died right in the bed of several men! He deserved it!"
Ye Xinran also sighed. "Lan Xuan should be able to let it go!"
Zhu Qian nodded. "Lan Xuan has indeed let it go. She is so busy every day that even as her boss, I rarely see her! She also changed the name of the Water Pavilion to Ting Xin Yuan. It has just started and there are not many customers, but the reputation is still good."
"Yeah, we have to take our time with this!" Ye Xinran said, "I still want to discuss this with you. I want to form a partnership with you and do business together!"
"What business is it? Tell me about it!" Zhu Qian was curious!
Ye Xinran told him that she was going to grow chili peppers and make seasonings in the future.
Zhu Qian nodded, "Then I have to taste it first!"
Ye Xinran smiled and nodded, "That's great, let's have dinner together tonight! Let's have hot pot tonight!"
"Okay, it's a deal!"
After a while, Daoqin walked in with a red face.
Ye Xinran was too embarrassed to look at that awkward look. She felt redundant, so she stood up, left the space for the two of them, and walked out.
As soon as he went out, he saw Jian Shu and several other secret guards dressed as officers and soldiers, secretly peeking inside.
Ye Xinran took a look and left without saying anything.
She was helpless and amused, as she saw envy, jealousy and hatred in their eyes.
Even if you walk far away, you can still hear their sour words.
"Although Miss Zhu is not good-looking, she is really rich!"
"What should I do? I don't want to work hard anymore!"
"I'm so jealous, I want to hit someone!"
"I can borrow money from Brother Dao from now on, because he has so much!"
"Can I be a dowry..."
“I want to, too!”
"I'm going too!"
…
Ye Xinran went to prepare the hot pot seasoning for dinner. After thinking about it, since we were going to eat, why not just have hot pot for everyone tonight? After all, we were all family now.
Ye Xinran went directly to the big kitchen and called Jianshu and Gu Yanxin. He found a big pot and mixed the hot pot seasoning according to the proportions. He asked Gu Yanxin to put in peppercorns, chili peppers, various spices, butter, etc. Jianshu used a shovel to cook. Soon, the whole kitchen was filled with a strong aroma that made people drool.
