Episode 51: Visiting as a Guest

  Do you believe in Gu Chenzhi?

  Gu Yanzheng was afraid he wouldn't believe her, so she secretly went to invite Qin Taishi.

  When his nephew first arrived at Yanling Fu, he couldn't let him feel that San Shu's family was messing with his life, so he asked a little girl to take a look at his illness.

  Please call a doctor, this is basic courtesy.

  Who would have thought, Gu Chen actually said he believed!

  What's the point of Gu Yan Zhen going to such great lengths? As long as Gu Chen believes, shouldn't Gu Jin be able to cure him? Last time that Chen Gongzi...

  It can't be explained why, but Gu Jin really has some skills, and Gu Yanjin already believes it.

  Qin Sheng still came.

  He had a good relationship with Gu's family and was also friends with Gu Yanwen, so he accepted the invitation and sneaked in through the side door without thinking much of it.

  Why did Gu Yanwen secretly invite him? It must be that he couldn't help it, because Gu Yanwen wasn't the kind of arrogant and contemptuous old master.

  Qin Sheng had also heard that Gu Yan's wife, Song Shi, was a domineering and overbearing woman...

  As soon as it involved family matters, Qin Shen didn't ask for a reason.

  Gu Yanwen was deeply moved and bowed to him.

  Gu Zhen saw that the doctor had been invited, and it was the imperial physician from the princess's mansion. He naturally wouldn't let Qin Shen Si and Third Uncle lose face, so he swallowed his previous words and obediently let Qin Taai examine him.

  Qin Taizhen took the pulse of Gu Zhenzhi and heard that he had just arrived from the capital, so she casually asked him a few questions about the capital.

  "...Have you ever opened a prescription before?" Qin Shen suddenly asked.

  Gu Yanwen nodded and said, "My sister has a prescription..." He handed the prescription to Qin Shenshi to take a look, then explained in a low voice, "My nephew came from Beijing and fell ill as soon as he arrived. I was afraid of treating him lightly, so I specially troubled Mei Qing brother to run this errand."

  Just arrived from the capital city, definitely haven't heard of Gu Zhi's great achievements.

  The adults at home used a doll to deal with Gu Zhenzhi, which was indeed impolite.

  Qin Sheng nodded and said, "Indeed, brother, with our relationship, there's no need to say more empty words."

  His eyes fell on Fangzi.

  It's just a prescription for relieving summer heat, which is very suitable for Gu Zhen's illness.

  "I won't write another prescription then," said Qin Shenshi. "Miss Qi's prescription is quite suitable."

  Gu Chen's face broke into a faint smile.

  Qin Taizhong also said so, and Gu Chenzi was even more free from worries.

  Everyone is delighted.

  After taking the medicine, by the next morning, the fever had dropped by half.

  Song Pan'er urged him not to get up and have a good rest for half a day.

  Gu Zhenzi followed his words and lay in bed for a whole day.

  By the third day, his fever had gone and he was feeling hungry. He got up early and ate a plate of crystal dumplings and drank a bowl of rice porridge.

  Gu Jingzhi said, "The heat has dissipated, big brother should stop lying down all the time. Good people will become lazy if they lie down too much. Get up and move around, follow my father out for a stroll."

  Gu Chen made a bow and thanked her: "Thank you, Seventh Sister!" Then he remembered Gu Jin's mention of his right leg having a low-grade fever, "Seventh Sister, my right leg seems to have started burning again last night..."

  "Brother, don't worry about this matter, I have it in mind. Your right leg is not a sudden illness, but a chronic one, and you mustn't be too anxious. You've just recovered from the heat, rest for a few days, and I'll slowly nurse you back to health, and your pain will naturally subside." said Gu Jin.

  Gu Chenzhi thanked him again and then asked Gu Jinzhi: "Seventh sister, what caused the burn on me?"

  "Last time, big brother had a fever and retained hot phlegm in his body. The doctor used medicine, but only drove away the summer heat without resolving the hot phlegm. The phlegm stagnation remained in the body, causing his right leg to burn." Gu Jin said, "Medicine should be used to clear and transform the phlegm stagnation, using many medicines and taking a long time..."

  Gu Chen nodded slightly, his heart beating slightly faster.

  He didn't ask more questions and was very cooperative.

  Heatstroke isn't a big deal, after recovering, there's no harm to the body, so Gu Yanjin took Gu Chenzi and strolled around the Yanling Mansion.

  Today I strolled around Tianning Temple, tomorrow I'll go to Longxi River to listen to songs on a painted barge.

  A painted barge is the place most loved by elegant scholars.

  These romantic affairs, Song Pan'er didn't mind at all, instead she opened the trunk and took out silver to give him, so that he could reward those girls and not lose face.

  He had been wandering around for five or six days, and Gu Chen's good several nights were still awakened by the fire, remembering his illness, not very enjoyable.

  Gu Jin took his pulse instead, and he didn't have an attack at all.

  He is psychologically affected, thinking he is being burned.

  Seeing him always worried and depressed, Gu Jinzi started to help him prepare medicine.

  All medicines are taken from Qin's Hundred Herbs Hall, and all of them were personally selected by Qin Shenshi with top-grade materials.

  A total of eight doses of medicine need to be taken.

  The first deputy should drink fifteen doses, three times a day.

  Just after drinking for two days, Gu Chen immediately exclaimed with surprise that he was much better, which made Gu Jin cry and laugh.

  It's all psychological.

  His phlegmatic symptoms, early onset is only occasional, careless people will not notice. After two or three months, about ten days to eight days an attack, burning is not intense; half a year later, just three to five days an attack, at night burning can't sleep.

  If it's delayed for two or three years, it will be unbearable, and further treatment will be troublesome.

  Most people are afraid of illness and dread doctors, she thought that Gu Ze wouldn't believe her... She was just casually mentioning it. If he didn't believe her, when he got sick in the future, he would naturally remember her warning from back then.

  Who would have thought, Gu Chen actually believed it.

  Gu Jin was slightly surprised and felt a warmth in his heart.

  It was already early August.

  August 15th is not only Mid-Autumn Festival, but also Gu Jingzhou's birthday.

  Song Pan'er started getting busy, thinking that on the 15th of this month at noon, she would invite relatives and friends to gather together to celebrate Gu Jin's birthday.

  As only close relatives were invited, no theatrical performance was prepared. Instead, two female storytellers were invited to tell stories and two young singing girls were asked to sing songs.

  Then, he ordered the servants to send crabs and fresh fruits from the farm.

  There were also rent and trivial matters at home sent by her husband, and she was busy with her feet off the ground, but she was happy and in a good mood.

  Gu Zhenzi took his medicine without delaying his play and still followed Gu Yanzhen everywhere every day.

  They also went to visit Song Xi, Gu Jinzhi's second uncle.

  Song Xi is a renowned talent in Jiangnan, with exceptional skills in calligraphy and painting, worth thousands of gold.

  Gu Zhenzhi admired him very much.

  Song Xi also felt relieved and gave a fan to Gu Chen as a gift.

  Gu Zhen treats it as a treasure, hiding it at the bottom of a box and refusing to take it out for use.

  "...It seems that Second Madam's maternal family has arrived with several nephews, all of whom have come to give her Mid-Autumn Festival gifts. Shall we invite them in for a seat?" Gu Yanwen said to Song Pan'er after returning from the Song residence.

  Song Pan'er recalled that last time her second sister-in-law wanted to introduce Gu Jinzhi to her own nephew, and she wasn't too happy about it. She said, "In just a few days' time, it'll be Mid-Autumn Festival, I'm afraid they'll have to rush back home, where will they find the time? Besides, didn't second sister-in-law also not invite Brother Chen to sit at home?"

  In Yanling Prefecture there is a custom: when distant relatives from afar come to visit, the local relatives of that family, who are closer in relationship, all have to entertain them.

  Gu Zhenzhi is the nephew of Song Pan'er's family. If his maternal relatives have a kind heart, they should invite Gu Zhenzhi to their home for a simple meal.

  Gu Yanzhong didn't say anything else.

  The next day, Mrs. Song sent her eldest son, Song Yanwu, to invite Gu Zhenzhi to visit, accompanied by the Gu family.

  "My mother said that if Aunt is busy, let Uncle and cousins go, it will be lively." Song Yanmo said.

  Mrs. Song knew that Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, so Song Pan'er must be especially busy.

  As expected, Song Pan'er couldn't spare a moment.

  Only then did Gu Yanzhen take the children with him.

  Because they invited Gu Chenzhi, there was no need for a girl to accompany him, so Gu Wanru went and Gu Jinzhi didn't go.

  As a result, when it was almost time for dinner, Mrs. Song asked her third cousin, Song Yanfan, to run an errand and insisted that she go herself.

  Song Pan'er also said on the side: "...... Grandfather is not at home, studying all day, do you still want to take the imperial examination? Your father often sneaks away to take a nap. Follow your cousin to play, which girl's family is as boring as yours?"

  Song Yanfan nodded along: "Cousin, go! You haven't been to my house for a long time, and my mother always misses you."

  Gu Jin had no choice but to smile and change into a new set of clothes before heading to the Song residence.
