"Don't be afraid, people in this world are scarier than ghosts." Qingguan whispered.

Qian Fu's face instantly turned pale. Thinking about what he had experienced these days, he said after a long while: "That's what the lady said."

Qingguan rolled her eyes and thought: "Although I know a little bit, I'm far less proficient than my aunt. Alas, it's a pity that my aunt didn't leave anything behind."

Qian Fu said bitterly: "This Gu family is really a den of wolves and tigers. They stripped away all the valuable things of the second lady and didn't even leave a needle for the lady. They are a bunch of evil spirits."

Yueniang was stunned, suddenly pushed open the door, rushed out, and shouted to the two maids outside the door: "Miss, you are not full. Go to the kitchen and have a look. You are not allowed to eat anything, as long as it is hot." , quickly brought it up.”

Although the maid was unwilling, she did not dare to let Miss Six go hungry.

When Yueniang saw them leaving the door, she closed the door, turned and walked into the lady's boudoir, opened the box and took out a stiff embroidered pillow.

"Yue Niang, what are you doing?"

"Miss, this is what the Second Grandma left for me. The Second Grandma asked the slave to take it with her to survive."

Qingguan was puzzled, "What does aunt mean by this?"

Yueniang didn't care to speak, picked up the scissors, and just bent her head. She became more and more anxious to tear it apart, so she simply threw away the scissors and tore it apart with both hands.

There was a "wow" sound.

Among the cotton wool, countless pieces of paper were scattered all over the sky.

Gu Qingguan reached out and grabbed it, with surprise in his eyes.

On a cold night, the third watch has passed.

Deep in the bamboo forest, a thin figure stood tall and blended into the night.

The catastrophe was approaching, and my grandfather realized that everything was over. He handed over the Qian family's century-old wealth and all the family medicines to Qian Fu, and brought them to his aunt. Just to leave a glimmer of hope for the Qian family.

Before her death, her aunt sewed the money and prescriptions she had accumulated over the years into her pillow. She was forced by the Gu family to take poison and died. She was already despairing and had no hope.

Thunder, rain, and dew are all due to the king's kindness. This time, the prince has touched the emperor's wrath, and the Qian family has been involved, and no one can survive...

For a time, my aunt had no one to entrust her with the huge amount of money, so she simply handed the pillow to Yueniang to ensure that this loyal slave who had been with her since childhood would be rich and noble for the rest of her life.

Not only did Yueniang not leave, but she wholeheartedly protected Qingwan. At this time, the prescription and huge sum of money were handed over to her.

What should she, Gu Qingguan, do to live up to their loved ones who left everything behind with their lives

Qian Fu and Yueniang accompanied the young lady.

Under the moonlight, boundless pain flashed in both of their eyes.

From afternoon to now, Miss Six has been standing here for five or six hours without moving.

With a faint sigh, Gu Qingwan slowly turned around, his eyes as clear as stars in the thick ink-like night.

"Uncle Fu, what do you think of the Qian Mansion's case?"

Qian Fu lamented: "The six gates reported it to the governor of the capital and the six gate admirals the next day. They said... they said..."

"say what?"

"In the Qian Mansion case, no one set the fire on fire. It is really a natural disaster."

"Where are the thirty-six drugstores of the Qian family?"

Qian Fu choked up and said, "Miss, all thirty-six pharmacies of the Qian family have been granted permission."

This result has been expected.

Qingguan's eyes flashed with pain, but his expression remained calm.

"Uncle Fu, Yueniang, the Qian family is not dead."

Her voice was very soft, but filled with incomparable determination.

"I want every city and every state capital in the Nine Provinces to have a Qian family's medicine shop. I want everyone in the Nine Provinces to be proud of taking the Qian family's medicine."

Qian Fu, Yueniang was shocked and looked at their young lady with dumbfounded eyes.

The young lady in front of her had no trace of childishness on her face, her thin figure exuded a cold demeanor, her gestures were as cold as ever, and her thin and impassive lips were slightly raised.

Qian Fu and Yueniang had strange feelings in their hearts. It seemed that in the world, only the girl in front of them could make their dead hearts bloom.

Winter morning.

The weather is cold and gloomy.

Yueniang got up in the middle of the night and lit the pond fire again, but it had already died down.

The two maids saw that no one in the Gu family paid attention to Miss Six, and they didn't even bother to do the night watch. Only Yueniang worked hard and served inside and outside.

Qian Fu was old and lame, and was sent by the steward of the Gu family to clean the toilets, doing the hardest and most tiring job. Fortunately, it is very convenient to move around the house and get information.

At the sound of the clappers at the end of the clock, Yueniang stood up in a timid manner, threw on a cotton robe haphazardly, and turned on the lamp. Yueniang stood on tiptoes and came to the inner room, wanting to tuck the young lady into bed.

"ah!"

Yueniang was startled and saw the young lady looking at her with wide eyes.

"Miss, have you been up all night again?"

Qingguan put down the medical book, yawned and said, "What day is it today?"

Yueniang turned around and brightened the lanterns, stepped forward and held her in her arms, saying, "As soon as the young lady read the medical book, she even forgot the date. It's New Year's Eve today."

The days flew by so fast, it was already New Year's Eve, and in the blink of an eye it had been almost a month since she came to Gu Mansion, Qingguan sighed in her heart.

"After today, I will be nine years old." Qing Wan rubbed his head in her arms, sticking close to Yue Niang.

Yueniang felt warm in her heart, no matter what kind of god or strange reincarnated possession the young lady was, she was still a child.

"I'm not nine years old. It's still early. Miss, please sleep a little longer." Yueniang held the young lady's soft hair lovingly.

"On such a festive day, why don't people in the south move at all?" If it were in Beijing, there would have been the sound of firecrackers to wake people up early.

"The lady didn't know something. It turns out that she did. The princess was afraid of the noise, so the second master asked the steward to stuff money from door to door and ask them to release it later."

Qingguan sneered.

But when you see new people smiling, you never hear old people cry.

A widower had just married his wife after her death three months ago. He did not say anything about the marriage and did not even care about the life or death of his own daughter, but he had a deep love for the princess.

Yueniang knew what the young lady was thinking and whispered: "Second Master has been married for more than half a month and only rests in the princess's room. They go in pairs every day and even go to the toilet together."

Qingguan lowered his head and said nothing.

"What's even more irritating is that the second master treats the oil bottle brought by the princess as if it's already gone. The food and clothing are of the best quality. He is closer than his own son. It's so shameless."

Yueniang was angry, but Qingguan smiled indifferently.

Most men in the world are unlucky. Her nominal father is just more explicit.

"Pah, pah, pah," three knocks on the door.

"You rich old man, why are you not letting anyone sleep so early today..."

"Girl, please do me a favor. I have something to do with Yueniang. I will use this little money to buy flowers for the girls..."

"Hey, I've got a lot of money today, go ahead, go ahead and avoid the ladies."

"This old man is very loyal to Yueniang. He comes to our courtyard every day."

"Whatever, as long as you have money to make, no one is coming to this courtyard anyway."

Qingguan's heart skipped a beat when she heard this. Qian Fu had never come into the hospital so early before.

"Yue Niang, go and see what's going on?"

Yueniang opened the curtain and hurried out.

Qingguan listened attentively for a long time, but when he saw that there was no sound outside, he couldn't help but feel suspicious.

"Yue Niang!"

"Hey, my slave will be here soon."

Qingguan's voice was choked with sobs, and Qingguan had a bad feeling, so she hurriedly lifted the quilt and walked out.

When Qian Fu and Yueniang saw the young lady suddenly rushing out, they hurriedly turned their backs and wiped away their tears.

"What's up?"

"Miss… "

Qingguan's face darkened, and she asked in a more serious tone: "What's the matter?"

Qian Fu suddenly fell to his knees and cried, "Miss, something happened to the Sheng family."

Qingguan swayed and hurriedly held the wall with his hands, saying in a trembling voice: "What happened to the Sheng family?"

"Miss, there is news from Beijing that ten days ago... the entire Sheng family was executed."

Like a thunderclap in his ears, Qingguan let out a cry and softened.

"Miss, miss!"

After a few needle pricks, Qingguan faintly woke up.

She turned her head and looked at the two people kneeling on the ground, tears streaming down her face. Her father's surname is Sheng, and she married into a Qian family. The Sheng family can be regarded as her maternal ancestors.

"Get up, I have something for you to do."

Qing Guan endured the pain and said word by word: "Qian Fu, you must redeem yourself today and go to the capital tonight to collect the bodies of the Sheng family."

Qian Fu's tears fell even more as soon as the word "grab the corpse" came out, "Miss, the old slave is gone, what should I do, Miss?"

"Don't worry, Yueniang will take care of me. Find a place with beautiful scenery and bury everyone. You should be careful."

"I'll be there soon, miss. Take care of yourself."

Qingguan nodded, letting her tears fall on her clothes, "Yue Niang, you send Qian Fu out of the house, and buy some paper money outside to give them a ride for me."

"It's Miss."

"Tell them something for me. Sooner or later, I will avenge this for them."

"Miss, you should take care of your own health first." Yueniang cried.

Qingguan smiled sadly: "Let's all go, I didn't sleep well at night, and I want to take a nap now."

The sound of firecrackers and the celebration party started.

In the flower hall of Gu's Mansion, there were lanterns and colorful decorations, and about ten tables were set up. The maids and women were busy at the table, laughing all the time.

Qingguan lay on the bed, listening to the excitement outside, and slowly closed his eyes. When she first heard about the Sheng Mansion, she was furious and started to have a high fever in the afternoon. Seeing that the fever was getting higher and higher, Yueniang was so anxious that she begged the second master.

There were footsteps, the curtain was lifted, and someone walked to the bed.

After a moment, a rough hand touched her forehead.

"On a good day, I still want to stand here without dying, so that I can't even drink Ansheng."

Grandma Tan looked down at the person on the bed and said coldly: "Yue Niang, this is medicine to treat typhoid fever. Take three pills a day. Cook it and feed it to your lady."

Having said that, not wanting to stay any longer, Grandma Tan covered her handkerchief and left as if running away.

Yueniang held the medicine and was about to take it out to cook when Qingguan said hoarsely: "Come here."

"Miss..." Yueniang stepped forward hesitantly.

Qingguan opened her eyes with force and saw Yueniang's fair forehead was red and stained with blood.

A tear fell on the pillow and disappeared. The dignified daughter of Gu Mansion asked her maid to kowtow her head when asking for medicine.

It’s really good!

Qingguan was not angry but smiled, and put a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Repay debts for debts, life for life for debts, Yue Niang, I will get back the hardships we have endured sooner or later."

The moonlight shines brightly, but the night remains dark.

Gu Qingguan knew clearly that her heart was as hard as iron!
