"Eighth Princess, what is a betrothal gift? It is the gift money that the man gives to the woman. How can you let Miss Chu take it home by herself? Wouldn't that make you a laughing stock?" Su Xi saw that the situation was not good, and stepped forward to help Chu Nanyue out. "So, I think you should send these 20,000 taels of silver notes back to Prince Yan's Mansion first. If Prince Yan is interested, it would be proper for him to bring them to the Chu Mansion in person another day!"

The Eighth Princess suddenly understood and nodded her head: "My Princess, what you said makes sense. How come I didn't think of it? It turns out that Sister Nanyue is very averse to this. I will go to Prince Yan's Mansion and tell Fourth Brother now."

"Sister Nanyue, please wait for good news from me. I will never let you down!"

After saying this, she left in a hurry with her followers.

Chu Nanyue didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Did these two people decide her lifelong happiness?

She shook her head helplessly, then bent over to bid farewell to Su Xi and went home.

"Miss Chu, it's still early today, why don't you come to my house and have a seat? My mother has always wanted to thank you in person!" Su Xi grabbed her and invited her warmly.

"Princess, I also received money last time, so I was just doing my job as a doctor. Please don't worry about it." Chu Nanyue replied.

"Okay, then let's not mention it. But my brother keeps talking about you, so you should give him some consideration instead of just giving him some favor." Su Xi changed the subject.

Chu Nanyue no longer refused. She decided to go and take the little boy's pulse.

Sitting in the luxurious carriage of Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion, they soon arrived at Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion.

Just as Su Xi said, the little boy was very happy to see her. He pulled her hand and called her sister several times, which made Su Xi's eyes turn red.

The wife of the Marquis of Zhenyuan also had a smile on her face and welcomed her very much, asking the servants to prepare meals.

Although she is old, she is still an elegant and beautiful woman. Like mother, like daughter. No wonder Su Xi is so beautiful.

At the dinner table, the wife of the Marquis of Zhenyuan spoke first: "Mumu has been in poor health since birth. No matter how many doctors he has seen, it is of no use. He gets sick every few days. In mild cases, he can't stop gasping for breath, and in severe cases, he passes out on the spot. That day, I heard Xixi say that Mumu had stopped breathing, and I was scared to death. Fortunately, I met Miss Chu, otherwise I would..."

As she spoke, the wife of Marquis Zhenyuan began to choke up.

Su Xi comforted her and explained, "Don't be surprised, Miss Chu. My mother was really too worried about my brother, so she lost control of her emotions."

Chu Nanyue naturally understood. She took the hand of Lady Zhenyuan and comforted her, "Madam, don't worry. The young master's heart disease is not as serious as it looks. As long as he takes good care of himself and carries heart-protecting pills with him, he will be basically the same as an ordinary person!"

"really?"

"really?"

"really?"

Facing the three people's almost unanimous questions, Chu Nanyue was slightly startled, and then nodded to the two adults decisively, which was regarded as a reassurance to them. Then he patted the little boy's forehead and replied with a smile: "As long as you listen to me, I guarantee that you will live like a normal person in the future!"

"If I listen to my sister, can I go to school and make friends?" The little boy's eyes were bright, shining like stars in the night sky.

Chu Nanyue frowned and thought for a while before she spoke slowly: "Not yet, but if you take the medicine prescribed by your sister, you will be fine in a month!"

Lady Zhenyuan was still a little worried. She said solemnly, "...Is it really possible?"

Chu Nanyue said seriously, "In fact, a person's illness is closely related to his mood. Because of the young master's illness, you overprotected him and confined him to the mansion. He has no playmates of his own age to interact with. His inner sense of belonging is not satisfied, which is not good for his health."

Su Xi thought thoughtfully: "Miss Chu is right. Mu Mu is just too eager for the outside world and the company of children of his age, so he always sneaks out of the house, which is indeed not good for his illness."

The wife of the Marquis of Zhenyuan asked, "Then let's find him some playmates of the same age first, and then make other arrangements when he gets better. Is that okay?"

"Madam, this arrangement is excellent. After our family moves here in the future, the princess can bring the young master to my house every day for acupuncture. This will be more conducive to his quick recovery." Chu Nanyue nodded in agreement.

The Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion and Hanmo Academy are both located in a wealthy area. After she buys a house, it will be much more convenient to travel between them, and she can do her best to treat the little boy.

"Are you going to move here?" Su Xi asked.

"My younger brother is studying at Hanmo College, so I want to buy a house nearby." Chu Nanyue patted the silver bills on his chest, looking proud.

Wow, five thousand taels of silver, what a huge sum of money!

"That's great. We can meet often in the future. I can also introduce you to a reliable dental clinic to prevent you from getting cheated." Su Xi looked excited.

Chu Nanyue was delighted when she heard this: "Thank you for your help, Princess. I really have no experience in this area." Suddenly she changed the subject and said, "Why don't we go now?"

She wanted to get this done as soon as possible, preferably so she could move in before November 2nd.

However, they thought too simply. Hanmo College is the highest institution of learning in Beijing, and the houses around it are in short supply.

After several days, the dental office still couldn't find a suitable house.

As a result, the carriage and horses that Chu Nanyue bought on a whim could only be temporarily placed in the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion.

Firstly, the alleys where their poor people lived were so narrow that carriages could not enter at all.

Secondly, Chu Nanyue wanted to give her family a big surprise.

That day, she was rubbing pills at home as usual, and Xiangxiang came running over happily: "Nanyue, do you want to do business?"

"Tell me about it!" Chu Nanyue suddenly became interested.

"Before I say anything, I have an important announcement to make!" Xiang Xiang coughed lightly and started to talk.

As she spoke, her eyes intentionally or unintentionally glanced at Chu Ziyu who was sitting quietly reading a book.

However, after Chu Ziyu looked up and greeted her lightly when she entered the room, his eyes never left the book again.

"Cough cough cough!" Xiangxiang started coughing again.

Xiao Tao was sincere: "Girl, please take a look at Miss Xiangxiang, make sure she doesn't get sick from coughing."

Chu Nanyue smiled maliciously: "I can't treat Sister Xiangxiang's illness. Heart disease needs heart medicine to treat it!"

Xiang Xiang glared at Chu Nanyue who was acting mean, then she straightened her back and said, "I declare that from now on, I, Huo Xiangxiang, will become a good woman!"

"That's great, Sister Xiangxiang, congratulations!" Chu Nanyue smiled instantly. She stood up and sincerely congratulated Xiangxiang, then turned to Xiaotao and said loudly, "Xiaotao, go out and buy some food for dinner tonight!"

Chu Ziyu suddenly raised his eyes and said, "Ayue, you stay at home and rest. Shitou and I will go!"

After saying this, Shitou carried the bamboo basket on his back and pushed him away.

Xiangxiang looked at Chu Ziyu's back with sparkling eyes.
