Chapter 276: 156 Big Disaster Ahead (Gu Jinyu) _3
The Prime Minister's Darling
In the end, Gu Jinyu chose Ling Shuixian over the Yao family.
Her mother doted on her regardless but her brothers needed her continued effort.
âIâm sorry, sister. I just promised Cousin Shuixian that Iâd help her with her homework. When I finish helping her, Iâll go see you and mother.â she said sincerely.
Gu Jiao didnât say anything and turned away.
Gu Jinyu returned to the pavilion.
Ling Shuixian asked, âWhat took you so long talking with her?â
Gu Jinyu softly replied, âShe asked me to go to motherâs side. I thought Iâd help you with your studies first.â
Ling Shuixian was delighted that Gu Jinyu chose her.
Just then, the favorite maid of the old lady Gu came carrying a food box, she curtsied to the two, saying, âYoung Miss, this is the medicine that you ordered someone to prepare for his lordship. Should I deliver it for you, or do you want to send it yourself?â
Gu Changqing fell ill.
His health was always top-notch but three days ago, for unknown reasons, he fell ill.
The old Lady Gu promptly informed Shuixianâs parents and had Ling Shuixian move in under the guise of filial piety. It was actually an opportunity for Ling Shuixian to express her affections in front of Gu Changqing
The medicine, in fact, was not prepared under Ling Shuixianâs order but by the Old Lady Gu. The insinuation was made clear by the trusted maidâs words to Ling Shuixian, to take the medicine and take care of Young Master quickly!
Ling Shuixian very much liked her cousin. Could she not understand the old ladyâs plan?
âGive it to me, Iâll deliver it myself!â
She accepted the food box.
After mulling over it, she asked Gu Jinyu, âDo you want to go see big brother with me?â
Gu Jinyuâs eyes lit up.
Big brother had been sick for several days, sheâd been wanting to visit. But she wasnât allowed to enter his courtyard.
As expected, she was right to reject Gu Jiao, the opportunity to please big brother came so quickly!
The two went to Gu Changqingâs courtyard.
Unfortunately, Gu Changqing had gone to the Back Mountain for sword practice.
When the old Marquis still lived in the Marquis Residence, he never let his sickness get in the way of his practice
He was the unlucky child who had to practice martial arts and sword fighting even while ill with a fever.
Ling Shuixian decided to wait for him in the courtyard.
After a long wait with no sign of Gu Changqing, Ling Shuixian couldnât sit still and began to wander around the courtyard.
As the daughter of the Marquis Residence, both the Old Lady and the three young masters lavished her with affection, the servants didnât dare to say anything aside from warning her to stay away from the young masterâs study.
But it was counterproductive.
Ling Shuixian perversely entered it.
As she stepped in, a loud âbangâ came from the study.
Gu Jinyuâs expression changed, she quickly went to the study, âCousin! Are you okay?â
â¦
In the courtyard, the Yao family saw their daughter.
She took her daughterâs hand and sat down on the warmed brick bed of the warm pavilion.
âYouâve lost weight.â she said agonisingly.
Caring for three sick patients without adequate sleep or food, Gu Jiao had indeed slimmed down.
âAre they okay now?â the Yao family asked.
âTheyâre fine now.â Gu Jiao replied.
The three young sick patients are all bouncing around again, but are still contagious, so Gu Jiao kept them at home.
The Yao family eased their worries, â Thanks heaven it was you, otherwise Yanyan wouldnât have endured this illness.â
Gu Yan couldnât even take a minor cold, let alone chickenpox.
The Yao family understood, only with countless efforts from their daughter, did her sons get ten times healthier bodies than before.
Itâs also certain that their daughter took meticulous care, only then their son recovered quickly from this illness.
Gu Jiao was caught in hesitation.
As mother and daughter were talking, a servant girl rushed in hurriedly, âMadam, Miss, bad news! Second Miss has had an accident!â
