When Pei Zixi encountered an emergency, he would usually not care about etiquette, and directly went into the house. Seeing Xie Jingxi around, he quickly nodded his head and did not say a word.

As the Lady Zeng was getting old, she didn't pay much attention to etiquette when she heard about it, and she didn't even need to act like the young miss and the mistress. After Pei Zixi finished cutting off their veins, she went and rummaged through the Lady Zeng's eyeballs, and after looking at the tongue moss, she finally received the handkerchief and wiped her hands.

"It's still an old problem."

Pei Zixi's words were always concise and concise, yet Xie Jingxi did not know the inside information. Pei Zixi had finally given her some face, and purposely said a few more words, "Marquis' Wife's heart palpitated earlier on, because it was caused by the mansion itself. The moment the elderly worked hard, it was extremely easy to offend, and this time, it could be considered to be more dangerous.

So Lady Zeng had an old illness, and what she said was true. There were very few women who did not change their minds and had been schemed against, which one was not cautious and cautious with every step and was likely to fall sick. It was just that she had never known about Lady Zeng's illness.

"Thank you, Imperial Physician Pei."

Pei Zixi nodded at her. After last time, he had a good impression of this Third Miss, Xie Family, so his tone was rather casual. He glanced at the white wine on the table and asked: "Did you use it to cool it down?"

Xie Jingxi nodded her head, "In such a rush, I do not know how severe the disease is, so I decided to lower the temperature first, and when my wife drank the prescription at home, I saw that it was Han Xie's medicine, but it went the other way, instead it got more warm, I did not dare casually use it, so I used it."

Pei Zixi nodded his head in praise: "You did well, if you miss that by just a little more, it would be broken."

Pei Zixi sat down and began to write a prescription, "This recipe is radiating heat, it needs to be boiled immediately so don't use her normal prescription. I'll give her the next recipe and I'll come over after three months." He gave the first recipe to Fengqin, then said, "However, I have to remind you guys that with Marquis' Wife's current state, if you work hard enough, there's no need to prescribe the rest of the recipes."

Xie Jingxi's heart skipped a beat. This meant that Lady Zeng would have to focus on resting in the future. Then, the matters of the family …

It really happened one thing after another, just at this moment, Lady Zeng became sick, she and Gu Yun had nowhere to run, did they really have to take over Marquis Mansion?

"Especially Dong Ri, the season where one has to pay the most attention to. When the weather is still warm in a few days, be careful to keep it warm."

"You have troubled yourself, Ming Yu. Go and bring a cup of hot tea to the Imperial Physician Pei to moisturize his throat."

Pei Zixi blew dry the prescription to Xie Jingxi, and said, "Madam just entered the door, as usual, I should have asked for a safe meridian. Since we met today, I might as well take another look."

Xie Jingxi knew that the Imperial Physician Pei had given him face, so she passed the wrist over. Pei Zixi lightly tapped her wrist a few times, and then retracted his hand, "My wife's background is not bad, and is a little healthier than most young ladies.

Xie Jingxi did not think too much into it. Imperial Physician Pei had always had good intentions, and knew that these girls in the backyard did not have any control over their bodies, that was also a hint, but even if he knew, it probably wouldn't change anything. This was a place where one could be engulfed if one was careless.

Thank you, Imperial Physician Pei, for your advice.

Pei Zixi looked at her meaningfully, "Then I will take my leave."

Xie Jingxi personally saw Pei Zixi out before she turned around and returned. She sat in the outer room and waited for Lady Zeng to finish her medicine and go back to normal. The first two people to report that the Marquis had returned, upon hearing that the Lady Zeng was sick, they hurried over.

"Father, uncle."

Xie Jingxi stood up, the Marquis nodded his head, "It's been hard on you, is your mother alright?"

"Imperial Physician Pei came here to prescribe medicine, and the fever has subsided."

"I'll go take a look." Marquis took a few steps before turning around, "Eldest son's wife, you stay for a while. I have something to say to you."

Xie Jingxi was startled, "Yes, father."

Originally, she wanted to return to Marquis as well, but after Marquis entered her room, Gu Heng and Xie Jingxi were left outside, looking at each other speechlessly, feeling rather awkward.

Gu Heng glanced at her with his fists clenched, his throat was a little dry, "If we're not here, it would be hard on you to stay at home."

"You're too polite, Uncle." You're too courteous.

Xie Jingqi was not one to bother others, but Gu Heng felt extremely apologetic in his heart. On one hand, he knew that his father had always wanted her to be his housekeeper, and on the other hand, he felt a little selfish. This was because he had been taking care of the matters at the Marquis Mansion Outer Academy for the past few years.

After a while, the Marquis came out, and said to Gu Heng: "Go take a look at your mother." Then, he said to Xie Jingxi, "Come out with me for a while."

Xie Jingxi obediently followed behind Marquis. She didn't go to any other places but simply stood outside and hugged Xia Nanyi. The sky had already begun to turn cold as soon as she saw the color of the sky, and Xie Jingxi shivered for a bit.

"Are you used to living at home?"

"Father is worried. My wife eats well and lives well at home. All of them are pretty good."

The Marquis nodded his head, "That's good, if there is anything that's lacking, just say it, since that Gu Yun child wants to marry you into his clan, he will not treat you unfairly, you have a good personality, if there is anything you need, advise him."

Marquis had hinted that he wanted to coordinate with Gu Yun and his family. There was nothing she could say, so she could only agree. "I have already heard about your mother's matter from Feng Jing, you have done very well, being able to handle matters easily is a good job, now that your mother needs to rest and recuperate, I can only trust you to take care of things at home, so don't push things any further, now that Gu Yun has also entered the Ministry of War, I am afraid that I cannot leave for a while, with you taking care of things for him, I am relieved."

In the end, Marquis was a person who had seen much of the world. He looked at the courteous and courteous tone, but in reality, she did not have the slightest leeway to reject. First, he used Lady Zeng's illness as a reason for her to have no choice but to accept it. As long as Gu Yun remained in the field, they would not be able to leave the protection of the Marquis Mansion. After all, with Gu Yun being in the starting point, without any face from the Marquis Mansion, it would be hard for him to escape.

Xie Jingxi knew that she wouldn't be able to run away from this day, but she didn't think that things would happen so quickly either. In truth, what Marquis said wasn't wrong, whether it was Gu Yun or her, they couldn't leave the Marquis Mansion right now, so she simply didn't have any leeway to avoid it.

"Father is praising me, but my wife is still afraid. Can you allow my wife to go back and discuss it with my husband?"

Marquis did not reject, "Mn, it's good for you to discuss this with him."

"Then my wife will take her leave first."

On one hand, he didn't know if Gu Yun was back yet, and on the other hand, he didn't know if he was in any hurry. Since she hadn't rested for a day, he couldn't help but pinch her forehead as he hurried back into the courtyard.

"Has the Eldest Young Master returned?"

Ming Yu replied: "I haven't asked for it just now."

The sky had already darkened, but Gu Yun still hadn't returned. The unease in Xie Jingxi's heart increased as her steps quickened, and she hurriedly turned into the courtyard entrance.

"Is he in a hurry to pick up the silver?" Gu Yun almost knocked her down, but luckily he recovered his steps in time, "I was just about to go find you, why did I have to go for such a long time?"

Gu Yun came up to pull her hand, but he was forced away by Xie Jingxi, "Don't touch me yet, I've just returned from the patient's room, it's better to change my clothes first."

Gu Yun frowned, but did not say anything, it was a common occurrence, as most doctors would have this problem, after getting into contact with patients they would first have to bathe and change clothes. The reason why Xie Jingxi did not dare to approach him was because she was afraid that Gu Yun's weak body might be infected even more easily than others.

Just now, she didn't know what she was anxious about, but for some reason, she seemed to have started to become impatient. It was unknown if it was because of her plans to be disrupted by the Lady Zeng, or because she was worried about Gu Yun, or because her body was just a little tired. In short, she was a little too close to Gu Yun.

She kept reminding herself that Gu Yun had his own plans, and that he might not be sacrificing himself for his. Wasn't he fine with her, what did he have to worry about? But no matter how he warned his, the matter of Gu Yun agreeing Xie Cen to take the job had become a knot in her heart.

Xie Jingxi thought for a long time before she decided to bury her in the water. It would help her relax a little if she held her breath.

There was no sign of happiness or anger on Gu Yun's face as he asked Ming Yu who was beside him, "What did the Madam do today?"

No matter how foolish Ming Yu was, she would still look at their faces, and retracted her resentment towards Gu Yun, and honestly said: "This lady had breakfast before meeting the two masters in the morning, and did not have enough time to rest before going to my wife's room. My lady was hot and did not withdraw, the lady personally warmed my wife's body, and then Imperial Physician Pei came to check on my lady's pulse and prescribe some medicine, oh, and even looked at my lady, saying that I did not need to worry too much about his, I have been here all this time until Marquis came back, and I have even asked you about it before."

Ming Yu told Gu Yun everything that she should not have said, and at the end, she felt that she was being too honest, but seeing that Gu Yun did not say anything, she felt that there was nothing wrong, she turned and went to prepare dinner.

Xie Jingxi had thoroughly washed herself, her hair still letting off a damp air, and upon entering the room, the fragrance and the cool air outside immediately rushed in. Gu Yun used the handkerchief to wipe her head, "Wash your hair in the house on such a cold day, it's easy to feel the cold when your hair is wet while you are running around the courtyard."

Xie Jingxi smiled at him, "You are being nagging, there's a total of a few steps in between, that's not necessary."

Gu Yun helped her wipe off the water stains on her head and pulled it over for a whiff, then said: "Today's a day of work, it's unavoidable that colleagues will be passionate about it. They want to eat together tonight, since I can't refuse, so I decided to have some fun." He turned his around and scratched her nose. "Are you worried about me?"

Xie Jingxi patted his hands, "Who's worrying about you, I'm just afraid that no one will come to pick me up later. I'm just bored from eating."

Gu Yun laughed softly and hugged his tightly, "Have I ever praised you to be so cute?"

"You keep nagging me."

"Alright, I'll try my best to come back and eat with you every day." Gu Yun pulled her to the dining table and sat his down, "If I am unable to leave, I will send someone to tell you in advance. It was my negligence today, so how about you punish me to eat less tonight?"

"Fuck you, you've already eaten."

Even though Xie Jingxi scolded her on the surface, she was still thinking about how Gu Yun would think of her. She thought to herself that their day had just started, and she still had a long time to get used to him, so she would recover slowly.

Gu Yun did not eat much, but he did his best to accompany her and ate as much as he could. After eating, Xie Jingxi finally got to business with Gu Yun, "Mother's body needs to be rested.

Gu Yun was not surprised, "You accepted?"

Xie Jingxi nodded his head, "I only want to discuss it with you."

It's fine if you agree. If you don't want it, I'll go and tell him, we can also move out. No matter how useless your Second Miss is, it's not like you can't manage it completely.

Xie Jingxi sighed in her heart. Gu Yun had never put any pressure on her, and the first thing she did was to consider her difficulties, but the more it was like this, the more she couldn't be selfish.

Since Gu Yun had entered into the trap, unless he only wanted to be a post without a care for other things, or else, he must have wanted to camp and climb up the ranks. No matter what intentions Gu Yun had, Xie Jingxi thought that it must have been with great intentions, and as the person behind him, if she had lived her little life under his protection, then she really wouldn't be worthy of his care.

Since Gu Yun was in the public square, it was essential for them to befriend each other. Right now, they could only live in the Marquis Mansion, so if they wanted to stay in the Marquis Mansion, sooner or later, they would have to push the matter of the butler onto her. Since Gu Yun had to camp outside, then, he had to start managing the Marquis Mansion as well.

I know that you are thinking for me, but to see you running back and forth everyday, while I was alone at home like a bug, how could I not be happy? In any case, you still need to manage your business, and you don't lack a Marquis Mansion.

Gu Yun smiled and pulled her closer, "So Xi had actually hidden this kind of intention to spy on me, I actually just wanted to make you a rice bug, and raise you into a round and comfortable hug. But since Xi wanted to look at me a few more times, I couldn't bear to keep up appearances, but I can't watch it for nothing."

After the serious matters were finished, this person began to get serious every day, and the one who did this was indeed a beauty who didn't care about food. Xie Jingxi pushed him away, "You've been busy all day, I'm tired, don't cause trouble …"

In the end, Xie Jingxi was unable to resist, and was still eaten by him. Gu Yun hugged his exhausted daughter in law and leaned on the bed, and started to ponder over his own plan. Actually, he did not care about the Marquis Mansion at all, but now that he had thought about it, he could not be as carefree as before.

He was happy in his heart, but at the same time, he was also slightly worried that she was hiding something he didn't know in her heart. In the event that one day he wasn't able to protect her, then he, her lovable, little daughter-in-law, would definitely not do anything foolish.
