Chapter 652: Notice the Abnormality

Seeing that there was really nothing wrong with Gu Tingyu, Gu Yankai breathed a sigh of relief and left the yard where Gu Tingyu lived.

Although Xiao Qin still wanted to check on Gu Tingyu's condition, it was not very convenient now, so she could only helplessly follow Gu Yankai and leave.

Gu Tingyu looked at Xiao Qin's back as she left, and felt something was wrong.

After thinking about his previous memories in his mind, he really found something wrong.

When he was about ten years old, Gu Tingyu's health improved for a while, but it didn't last long and he immediately became unwell again.

If it were before, Gu Tingyu would definitely not be able to find the problem, but now someone has changed. Although the Level 6 Chinese Medicine Proficiency Test is not particularly high, he still feels that there is a problem.

"Ms. sir, are you okay?"

"Hmm? I'm fine. It's hot. Ask someone to get some ice."

"Yeah, okay, I'll go right away."

When Shao Xueyan saw that Gu Tingyu had come back to his senses, she didn't ask any more questions. She got up and went to find the maid to make some ice.

In ancient times, there was no mature ice-making technology. The storage of ice cubes depended entirely on ice cellars. Basically, ice was stored in the winter and taken out for use in the summer, which was very costly.

However, the Gu family can still afford it. Apart from anything else, Gu Yankai, as the Marquis of Ningyuan, can be considered an important figure in the military and his family background is very wealthy. In addition, Gu Tingye's mother, Bai, brought family background with her after she got married, so there is no problem using ice in summer.

As the ice cubes were placed in the room, the room quickly became cooler. In order to maintain his frail and sickly personality, Gu Tingyu did not want to go out or anything.

He just lay down on the couch to rest, and asked Shao Xueyan to get him a book to read.

Shao Xueyan also sat aside and started embroidering, occasionally looking up at Gu Tingyu when she had nothing to do.

The room soon became quiet, and the maidservant stood aside quietly waiting for something to happen.

The quiet and peaceful atmosphere was destroyed by the sudden noise.

"Brother, brother, I'm here to see you."

The voice came before the person arrived. Gu Tingyu put the book down helplessly and turned to look at the door.

A tall figure walked in from outside. He looked somewhat similar to the actor and had a very good appearance.

There is no way. In a marquisate like this, it is impossible for there to be anything ugly after being passed down for generations. After all, both parents are handsome men and beautiful women, so how could the child be ugly?

"Okay, I heard you. What's wrong with making so much noise?"

"Hey, brother, I'm really worried. Brother, how are you? Are you okay?"

"Well, it's okay, don't worry, I'm just overworked, it's nothing serious. Now that you're here, why don't you meet your sister-in-law?"

"Oh, sister-in-law, Gu Tingye has seen it."

Gu Tingye looked at Gu Tingyu and saw that nothing seemed to be wrong, so he felt relieved.

After hearing Gu Tingyu's words, he immediately turned around and saluted Shao Xueyan.

Although the reputation is not very good, the etiquette is still very good.

Shao Xueyan nervously put down the work in her hands, stood up and returned the greeting.

"Uncle, you are so polite. Please take a seat."

Gu Tingye didn't hesitate and sat down on a chair beside him.

"Tingye, I heard that you went out to drink wine again a few days ago?"

"Haha, big brother, I didn't mean it. My friends came to see me, and I didn't know where they took me."

"Okay, I don't know you yet. You are almost an adult. My brother is not in good health. Our Lord family still needs you to be on horseback."

"Well, okay, big brother, I haven't fallen behind in martial arts. I've already practiced it this morning. After I'm done, I'll come to see you this time."

Gu Tingye nodded and said excitedly.

Although Gu Tingyu was fooled by Xiao Qin in the past and believed that the death of his mother Da Qin was all caused by Bai, fortunately he was more thoughtful before and did not act rashly towards Gu Tingye.

So Gu Tingye is still quite close to him. Now that Gu Tingyu is here, of course he won’t do anything to him.

Gu Tingye had a simple mind to begin with, otherwise he would not have been fooled by Xiao Qinshi and thought that Xiao Qinshi was very good to him.

Little did he know that all the things that had happened before were just a way for the loving mother to spoil her son and make him useless.

Now feeling Gu Tingyu's care, Gu Tingye is also very happy.

The two chatted in the room for a long time. It was not until the maid came over with the medicine that Gu Tingye realized that he had disturbed Gu Tingyu for too long.

"Ah, brother, I've been here for a long time. I'm sorry to bother you. Take your medicine and rest. I'll come to see you tomorrow."

"Well, fine, I won't keep you then."

After Gu Tingye bowed to Gu Tingyu and Shao Xueyan, he turned and left.

"Master, the medicine is ready. It's time for you to take it."

"Well, put it on the table first. I'll drink it later."

The maid didn't dare to say anything. She obediently put the medicine on the table and then stepped outside to stand guard.

Gu Tingyu had no intention of hiding his plan from Shao Xueyan, so he simply took the medicine and put it under his nose to smell it.

"Ginseng, deer antler..."

Gu Tingyu smelled a lot of precious medicinal herbs, all of which were for nourishing the body. There was nothing wrong with these, but he smelled some strange smells in the middle.

Shao Xueyan originally saw Gu Tingyu holding up the medicine bowl and thought he was going to drink it, so she quickly brought over the candied fruit on the side.

But it turned out that Gu Tingyu didn't drink it at all, instead, an expression of "I see" appeared on his face.

"Ms. sir, what's wrong?"

"Shh, keep your voice down."

When Gu Tingyu saw Shao Xueyan speaking, he quickly raised his finger to warn her.

Shao Xueyan immediately felt uneasy. Although she came from an ordinary official family, she also understood the twists and turns involved. Seeing Gu Tingyu's expression, she also became nervous.

"Pour out the medicine."

Shao Xueyan took the bowl of medicine from Gu Tingyu's hand, and her hands began to tremble a little.

Seeing Shao Xueyan pour the medicine into the flowerpot, he felt relieved. Gu Tingyu really didn't expect that Xiao Qinshi was so cruel.

When I was watching the TV series, I thought Gu Tingyu was really frail and sickly, but I didn’t expect that there were really problems in the middle.

There was obviously an extra medicinal ingredient in it just now, called withered blood grass. It is not a medicinal ingredient, it can even be said to be a poison, which specifically damages qi and blood.

However, Xiao Qin was really cautious and didn't add much. If someone really took it all the time, it would only make people weak and sickly.

This also explains why Gu Tingyu showed signs of recovery when he was ten years old, but suddenly failed again.

"My husband, this is..."

"It's okay, we'll talk about it tonight. You'll know then. For now, just pretend you don't know."

When Gu Tingyu heard Shao Xueyan's words, he shook his head at her and decided not to talk about this for now.

Shao Xueyan was not a fool. She knew that there must be something wrong. She took two deep breaths and finally recovered. After seeing this, Gu Tingyu nodded silently in his heart.

Shao Xueyan asked the maid to come in and take the medicine bowl away, and the room returned to peace.
