If she, who knows nothing at all, claims to be a miracle doctor, she will be exposed in a minute. Gulan will certainly not do such a thing.
"Old doctor make this medicine?" Gulan's expression was so sincere, and his eyes were clear and not evasive, that Wen Ai began to believe it.
"Yes, after the old doctor left, he took a liking to me and gave me some medicine. It was also a coincidence that I met the young lady's guards looking for the doctor. After asking about the situation, I learned about the young lady's emergency symptoms. One of the medicines I have can just control it, so I bravely followed him." Gulan said seriously, without taking all the credit for himself.
Gulan's response made Wen Ai even more fond of this slightly thin doctor.
"No matter what, it is a fact that the doctor saved me, and I am very grateful." Wen Ai nodded and thanked him.
"Miss, you are blessed with good fortune." Gulan said with a faint smile.
"Doctor, I wonder if you can sell me this bottle of medicine." Wen Ai's eyes hardly left the medicine in Gulan's hand. This medicine works really well for her. She just needs to spray it into her mouth. It is much better than those pills which are more bitter than Coptis chinensis.
"Of course." Gulan quickly handed over the medicine with the label removed, which was exactly what she wanted.
The maid beside her took the medicine, and at the lady's signal, another maid took out a wooden box from the carriage and handed it to the lady. Wen Ai took it and opened the wooden box directly in front of Gulan.
As expected of a wealthy people, this box is filled with silver and money. So I'm not afraid that she might be blinded by money and have evil intentions. Thinking of the guards forming a circle in front of the carriage, Gulan knew that she was overthinking it. They must have had some support for letting her in. Gulan couldn't help but complain in her heart, but her face remained calm, not at all flustered by seeing so much money.
Such calmness made Wen Ai like him even more, and she picked out a silver note from the box.
"Five hundred taels?" Gulan was surprised when she took the banknote. She didn't expect it to be so much. She originally planned to earn some money.
"Miss, this is a bit too much!" Gulan said in surprise.
"Not much. If I didn't have the medicine, I would be in danger today. It saved my life and the effect is very good. It's worth it." The pills she usually uses to save her life are also very expensive. If the pill hadn't disappeared accidentally, this wouldn't have happened. Thinking of the pills, a chill flashed across Wen Ai's eyes. Before leaving, whenever her little cousin came to the inner room, her pills would unexpectedly disappear, and there was a high probability that it was related to her.
So Gulan didn't refuse anymore. She took the silver note and put it in her arms, then took out another bottle from the package.
"Since it is useful, I will give this bottle to you, young lady. Although I don't know the formula, an experienced doctor should be able to analyze the ingredients and perhaps make the same medicine. You may as well find an experienced doctor to try." This medicine is made from traditional Chinese medicine. Gulan felt that an experienced and famous doctor should be able to make a similar one after analysis and research, so she couldn't help but mention it.
"Anything else?" Wen Ai was a little surprised, and quickly signaled to the maid to accept it. When she was about to take out another silver note from the box, Gulan quickly refused.
"Thank you, Miss, but this bottle is a gift." Gulan half stood up and nodded slightly, then retreated to the edge of the carriage, put on a bamboo hat, put on a straw raincoat, and turned to leave. After all, she is a foreign man now. Although she is a doctor, she cannot stay in the carriage for too long. The reputation of a girl is still very important. After taking the money, Gulan decisively got out of the carriage.
The man who came back with him saw Gulan get off the carriage and hurried forward, his anxious expression obvious at a glance.
"It's okay." Gulan uttered these three words calmly, and the man's expression finally relaxed. If anything happened to the young lady, he really wouldn't be able to explain to the parents. Fortunately, fortunately, fortunately he had no other choice and brought this man back.
At this moment, the maid who originally brought Gulan to the carriage came down holding an umbrella and carrying a food box.
"My young lady said thank you for the medicine and that she would seriously consider your suggestion. These snacks are not a big deal, but they are not available outside. You can take them back to sweeten your mouth." The maid opened one layer of the double-layer food box in her hand and handed it forward.
They were all cute snacks that looked delicious. Thinking of this, AnAn Gulan couldn't refuse them, so she took them.
"Please ask this girl to thank the young lady for me." Gulan said politely.
The maid smiled gratefully at Gulan, nodded, and got into the carriage
"Thank you, doctor." The man clasped his fists and was about to bow, but Gulan stopped him with his hand.
"No need, your young lady has already thanked me and given me the thank you gift, so I will leave now."
"Doctor, please." Guo Yi took the horse from his men.
Gulan nodded, jumped on the horse, holding the food box in one hand and controlling the horse with the other, and disappeared on the road in an instant.
"Miss, although these medicines are precious, you are giving too much," Hongshao couldn't help but say. The young lady put another five hundred taels of silver in the food box. Although she was not short of money, she felt really distressed when she saw it.
"That's right, Miss is too kind-hearted, otherwise your cousin wouldn't dare to act so unrestrained in front of you."
"Hongyao" Wen Ai glanced at her indifferently, and the aura she exuded unintentionally made Hongyao lower her head immediately.
"Hongyao knows his mistake."
"I know you are doing this for my own good, but Ying'er is my grandmother's beloved granddaughter after all. I will not break off relations with her unless it is absolutely necessary."
Before my mother got married, she was my grandmother's favorite daughter. She looked very much like my mother, so my grandmother was particularly partial to her. Even Xu Ying, who grew up with her grandmother, could not compare to her. Every year, because her grandmother missed her, her mother would send someone to send her back to live with her grandmother for a while until after her grandmother's birthday.
That was why her little cousin was so jealous. She was not only jealous of her grandmother's love, but also jealous that she had a father who was a high-ranking official. Wen Ai was aware of all this, but she just didn't want to argue with her. After all, she lost her mother when she was young, and her stepmother was unkind, so she was indeed pitiful.
Originally, she was going to wait until after her grandmother's birthday before returning, but because a big incident happened in Chicheng, she followed the guards sent by her father back to Yunzhou. I didn't expect my little cousin to be so bold. It would be fine if she just did some small things normally, but this time she actually tampered with her medicine.
This time it was too much, she almost lost her life because of it. The little cousin should learn a good lesson. After returning, she will write a letter to her grandmother truthfully. How to judge depends entirely on the grandmother's attitude, which will also determine her attitude in the future. If my grandmother felt sorry for my little cousin and treated her with care, then even if my grandmother loved her, Wen Ai would decide to distance herself from her.
"But the maidservant clearly put the medicine in the young lady's medicine box, and checked it again and again. During this period, only the cousin came here. Young lady..." Hongyao couldn't help but mutter.
This incident frightened her, and she immediately decided that she would always carry the young lady's medicine box with her and never let it out of her sight easily. This kind of thing was enough to happen once.
"I know, so I have made up my mind. I will tell mother the truth when I go back, and I will also write a letter to grandmother." Wen Ai glanced at Hongyao. If it weren't for this girl's loyalty, she would have demoted her to a third-class maid just for her bad habit of nagging.
"Really?" Hongyao said in surprise when she heard her young lady say this. Her voice unconsciously became a little loud, and then she reacted and covered her mouth.
Hongshao glared at his little sister, who was still so jumpy and alert. It was only because of her good nature that she could tolerate it.
