"I seem to have heard something." Gu Baili lowered his head thoughtfully.

He knew that a miracle doctor had appeared in Huichun Hall in the city, who could cure all difficult and complicated diseases, but he didn't expect Gu Baizhou to go there. What did he want to do?

Thinking of this, Gu Baizhou stood up and said, "Since my sister-in-law is back, I will leave first and come back tomorrow to help my sister-in-law build a small kitchen."

"Okay." Yu Wangfei responded with a smile.

Looking at Gu Baili's leaving back, Yu Wangfei and Yun Hua smiled at each other. How could they not know what Gu Baili was thinking?

Although Gu Baili is not a bad person, what he wants is the position of the next head of the Gu family. If Gu Baizhou cures his hidden illness, he will definitely not have the chance to become the head of the family.

I guess he has already run back to discuss a solution with the second branch of the Gu family.

"He's gone, and you're still watching."

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind Yu Wangfei. Yu Wangfei turned around in surprise and found that Chu Yuheng was standing behind her.

"When did you come in?" Yu Wangfei was surprised.

Was he always in the room, or did he just come in? Why was there no sound at all?

Seeing Chu Yuheng coming, Yunhua tactfully left the room.

"I've been here for a long time." Chu Yuheng walked to Yu Wangfei's side, looked at the cup of tea on the table, threw the cup directly to the ground, then picked up another cup and added a cup of hot tea for Yu Wangfei.

Looking at his expression, Yu Wangfei knew that he was jealous again.

"He likes Yunhua, why are you jealous?" Yu Wangfei smiled helplessly.

"Who said I was jealous?" Chu Yuheng said coldly, "Where have you been? You came back so late."

He arrived half an hour ago, but did not find any trace of Yu Wangfei in Fangfei Garden, so he went back to his room and lay on the bed for a while.

Then he saw Yu Wangfei and Gu Baili coming in together. He quickly hid on the beam and only came down after Gu Baili left.

"I went to Huichuntang." Yu Wangfei picked up the cup of tea and took a sip. "Doctor Fu said that Gu Baizhou wanted to find me to treat his hidden illness, so I went to see him."

"You want to cure his hidden illness?" Chu Yuheng's face suddenly became dissatisfied.

"A doctor has a kind heart." Yu Wangfei smiled brightly, then lowered her head guiltily and drank the cup of tea.

Chu Yuheng didn't say anything after hearing that, but the air pressure around him became low. Yu Wangfei felt a little cold instantly. She looked at Chu Yuheng cautiously.

"I'm not really trying to save you. I just want the money from Cheng'en Marquis' Mansion." Yu Wangfei said, "I'll give it to you once I get the money from Cheng'en Marquis' Mansion. Really. I promise."

"That's more like it." Chu Yuheng suppressed his anger and looked at Yu Wangfei with pride.

The reason why he was angry that Yu Wangfei was treating Gu Baizhou was that he was worried that Gu Baizhou would still be thinking about Yu Wangfei after he recovered from the treatment, and he could not accept letting his woman show that kind of place to a man.

Early the next morning, Gu Baizhou came to Huichuntang to cause trouble again. Doctor Fu hurriedly pulled him to the backyard and repeated Yu Wangfei's words verbatim.

"What! Ten thousand taels of gold!" Gu Baizhou opened his mouth in disbelief.

"Yes, that's what the miracle doctor asked. If the prince thinks it's too much, he can stop treating him." Doctor Fu didn't waste any more words with him and just let him handle it himself.

"Can we discuss it with the miracle doctor again? This 12,000 taels of gold is too much." Gu Baizhou looked worried.

Although he really wanted to show off his prowess, the entire Cheng'en Marquis Mansion did not have that much money, but he did not want to give up this opportunity.

"Your Highness, you should go back and think about it carefully. But don't think about it for too long. I can't guarantee that the miracle doctor will not change his mind." Doctor Fu threw down these words and went back to the front hall.

Gu Baizhou hurried back to the Marquis' Mansion and invited Old Madam Gu, the Marquis, and Madam Gu to the lobby. He decided to tell them about the matter and ask them to pay for his medical treatment.

After receiving the news, Yu Qiaoqiao hurried out of the house while the Gu family was away and came to Huichuntang, wanting to see the miracle doctor.

When Doctor Fu saw her coming, he still asked for 12,000 taels of gold. After hearing the price, Yu Qiaoqiao fainted. Even if she was sold, she couldn't get that much money.

When the second branch of the Gu family heard that all the Gu family members had gone to the lobby, they hurried over as well.

Last night they knew that Gu Baizhou wanted to cure his hidden illness, so today must be related to his hidden illness. They can't let Gu Baizhou succeed.

"Grandmother, father, mother." Gu Baizhou bowed to them very respectfully, "I have found a miracle doctor. He said he can cure my hidden disease, but it will cost 10,000 taels of gold."

"How much, ten thousand taels?" The second aunt took a step forward in surprise, "Even if you sell the Cheng'en Marquis's Mansion, you can't come up with ten thousand taels of gold."

This number also shocked Lord Gu.

Although the Gu family had some money due to corruption and bribery in previous years, they had been using bribes to gain a foothold in the court in recent years, and the Marquis' Mansion simply could not afford such money at the moment.

The old lady was also in a dilemma. Although she hoped that her eldest grandson could recover and inherit the title and become the head of the family in the future, ten thousand taels of gold were indeed too much.

Mrs. Gu just collapsed on the chair. Even if she took out all her dowry, she would not have enough gold.

At this moment Lord Gu suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly ordered his servants to go and invite Yu Wangfei.

"Father, what do you want Yu to do here?" Gu Baizhou was puzzled.

If it weren't for Yu Wangfei and the maid beside her, how could he have become like this.

"Now only Yu has money. With her dowry and her relationship with the Ninth Prince, how can you cure the disease if you don't let her come?" Marquis Gu scolded.

He was now ready to suck Yu Wangfei's blood, and Gu Baizhou understood what he meant instantly.

Soon, Yu Wangfei brought Yunhua to the lobby, and Lord Gu saw her and quickly asked her to sit down.

"Yu, I have no other intention in calling you here today." Lord Gu looked at Yunhua, "After all, it was the little girl next to you who did something wrong, so I hope she can take responsibility."

"What's the matter?" Yu Wangfei pretended to be confused.

"You should know about Bai Zhou's hidden disease. Now there is a miracle doctor who can cure it, but it only costs 10,000 taels of gold." Lord Gu sighed, "How can the Marquisate afford so much money?"

It turns out that he wants her to pay for it.

"What do you mean, Lord Marquis?" Yu Wangfei sneered.

"Since it was Yunhua who did the wrong thing, you should be held responsible." Lord Gu looked at Yu Wangfei with a fake smile, "After all, Bai Zhou is nominally your husband."

"My Lord, you also know that I am your husband in name only." Yu Wangfei looked at him speechlessly, "I don't have any money."
