40 Beautiful Neighbor
Gu Youting was stunned.
One thousand taels?
All the money they have on them combined doesn’t even amount to a thousand taels?
Besides, how long can the medicine last with one thousand taels of money?
This old lady has to eat all the time.
Even if we sell this house, it won't be enough to feed us for two months.
He suddenly fell silent.
Let Liu take this money?
Neither did she.
"Doctor, can I buy on credit?"
"Sir, I'm a small business owner, and you have too much money. I can't buy it on credit."
Gu Youting was also a little embarrassed.
"Then can you prescribe some cheap medicine for me to drink first?"
The doctor was silent for a moment, "Yes, but it won't work. I'd better change the expensive medicine as soon as possible."
Gu Youting nodded and said he would raise the money as soon as possible.
Liu had been listening to this in the corner with a frown on her face.
She felt very distressed about the one or two taels of silver in medical fees.
Now this old lady has to spend one thousand and two taels of silver to buy medicine?
What if Gu Youting really wants to save the old lady?
She had to make plans for herself and Gu Haoxuan as soon as possible.
After Gu Haoxuan sent the doctor away, he stayed with the old lady.
The old lady was in a coma for a day and a night before she finally woke up.
She couldn't help crying as soon as she saw Gu Youting.
"Youting, this mansion has been taken away from us. How will the children face their ancestors in the future?"
Gu Youting comforted her, "Mother, we will definitely have a chance to make a comeback. You should take good care of your health first."
The old lady cried, "I heard what the doctor said just now. Now the Marquis' Mansion is gone, how can you afford to pay for my medical treatment? Besides, when the Marquis' Mansion was still there, we didn't have money to buy medicine. It was all taken by Shen. Why don't you go and beg Shen? She is infatuated with you. If you bow your head, she will definitely compromise. I don't want to die yet!"
When a person is about to die, he will be afraid of death. The Shen family, whom he looked down upon before, is his life-saving straw.
But Gu Youting didn't want to ask Shen for help.
He never liked Shen and only had Liu in his heart.
If his mother had not dissuaded him, he would never have married Shen.
Now that they have finally divorced, he still needs to go to Shen to beg for help?
Doesn't he have any face?
After all, he was once a marquis and had a noble status, but he didn't want to ask the orphan girl Shen for help.
"Mother, don't worry. Your son will definitely save you. Don't worry about other things."
Shen Jingxiang had been ordering the servants to take care of the newly bought yard.
Ever since she decided to divorce, she bought a large courtyard and planned to bring all the servants in the Marquis' Mansion over to provide them with a place to live.
The yard has been cleaned up now and people can move in and live there.
Shen Jingxiang took a good bath and put on a purple tulle long dress. The tulle revealed her graceful figure. She looked like a flower fairy, sexy, charming and beautiful.
There were only two maids serving in Shen's yard, and the guards were not allowed to enter the yard, so Shen could wear whatever clothes she liked.
On such a hot night, wearing gauze is so comfortable and not stuffy at all.
Normally she has to fan herself with a fan all the time, otherwise it would be too hot.
Shen was sitting on the swing, swinging, holding a glass of grape juice in her hand.
Now that she has gotten rid of the Gu family, she has finally regained her freedom.
The only regret is that I haven't been reunited with my daughter yet.
But this day will come soon.
She was swinging on the swing when a figure climbed over the wall and came in.
Shen Jingxiang immediately became alert, and then saw Nangong Jingchuan in black clothes appear in front of her.
She looked at Nangong Jingchuan in surprise.
"Why is it you?"
There was a hint of panic in Shen Jingxiang's eyes, and with her purple gauze dress, she looked like an elf that had fallen into the mortal world.
Beautiful, so beautiful.
Nangong Jingchuan was distracted for a moment, but soon recovered and smiled at Shen Jingxiang.
"I heard that this house was bought by a beautiful woman. I came here to investigate and the rumor turned out to be true."
Shen Jingxiang really wanted to beat Nangong Jingchuan to death, but she was no match for him, and her identity and background were not as strong as his.
Shen Jingxiang tried hard to calm herself down.
I heard that Prince Jing could find where she lived. It was obvious that Prince Jing had been investigating me, otherwise he would not have sneaked in here so quickly.
He was basically coming for me.
Shen Jingxiang smiled at Prince Jing, "Your Highness Prince Jing came here late at night, is it just to see if the women in this courtyard are beautiful?"
Nangong Jingchuan smiled. He had to say that Shen Jingxiang was really a lovely girl. Not only was she beautiful, but she was also very smart. She would not just stick to him when she saw him.
This is a woman with a strong opinion.
He appreciated it very much.
"Miss Shen, you are too heartless. I have helped you so much, but you don't want to repay me, and you even want to deny your debt?"
It turns out that it is not so easy to owe a favor to Prince Jing. He came to ask for payment before the day even ended.
However, she was able to get rid of the Gu family, naturally thanks to Prince Jing's help. This favor must be repaid sooner or later. In this case, she would like to repay it today. From now on, they owe each other nothing.
"I wonder what His Royal Highness Prince Jing wants?"
Prince Jing pointed at her and said, "You..."
Shen Jingxiang was shocked. What did Prince Jing just say?
She? What do you want from her?
She is already old, and her appearance... is totally incomparable to that of a teenage girl. Is it possible that Prince Jing is blind to like her?
She felt that this was definitely not the case, and that Prince Jing must have meant something else.
Ana Shen asked shamelessly, “I wonder if Prince Jing could make his words more clear?”
Prince Jing saw Shen Jingxiang’s cautious look, and it seemed that she was frightened by what she just said, so she didn’t plan to tease her anymore.
"I have not eaten tonight, and I want you to have dinner with me."
Have a meal?
It’s so late, the restaurants outside must have closed long ago, where can they go to eat?
"Then I will go and call the servants to prepare meals for the prince."
But Prince Jing stopped Shen Jingxiang, “This prince wants to eat what you cook!”
She did it?
Prince Jing was really picky. He must have known that she was an excellent cook, so he deliberately asked her to cook.
Half of the restaurants in the capital are owned by her. After her guidance, business is booming every day.
Prince Jing is lucky tonight.
However, she could repay Prince Jing's favor with just one meal, so she was actually getting the better deal.
"This is what Prince Jing said, don't regret it."
He had done a lot of research on Shen Jingxiang's affairs, so he naturally knew that she was an excellent cook and that she owned several restaurants.
Those restaurants are the best in Beijing, so how amazing must the cooking skills of the owners behind the scenes be?
Now I have one more thing to brag about.
