Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge

"Really? Is it true?" After hearing what Gu Qiongsi said, Xie Cheng'an's anger immediately subsided and he couldn't wait to confirm with her.

"But when did you get the money to buy the spices?"

Gu Qiongsi could only shake her head helplessly. "This time I used the money from selling my jewelry last time, and I only bought the most basic spices in the smallest amount."

"There is no other way. The money my mother collected has not been sent to me yet. I can't wait any longer."

Gu Qiongsi's words were full of helplessness, and he looked not in good spirits and listless.

When she spoke, she even forgot to call herself "a concubine" and just called herself "I".

But Xie Chengan didn't care about that. He slapped his thigh and said as if he had thought of something, "I came in to look for you just now because someone from Liuzhou sent you a letter."

"Where is it? Where is the letter?" Gu Qiongsi suddenly became more alert.

Xie Cheng'an let Shuangrui in and handed a letter to Gu Qiongsi.

Before he even opened it, Gu Qiongsi knew that this was a letter written to him by his father. He also knew that there was no banknote in the letter.

When the letter was opened, Gu Qiongsi's brows were tightly furrowed. Xie Cheng'an was very anxious, but he didn't dare to take it and read it directly.

I could only ask softly, "How is it? Did aunt say anything?"

Gu Qiongsi held his forehead with his hand, put the letter on the table, shook his head and did not answer his question.

Xie Chengan then picked up the letter, looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but exclaimed,

"What? A thief broke into my house in the middle of the night? And stole all the banknotes?"

How could such a thing happen? Although the public security in Liuzhou is not as good as that in Beijing, such things rarely happen.

Although the case has been reported to the authorities, the possibility of recovering the banknotes is very small.

"What should I do? Without money, what can I do even if I have a shop?" Xie Cheng'an was instantly at a loss. Why did he always feel that nothing went smoothly?

Gu Qiongsi also held his forehead in discomfort, feeling very depressed. Before he could say anything, he heard outside the courtyard that the housekeeper had already invited the doctor to the main house.

Qian said nervously, "Doctor, doctor, please take a look at the child. What's wrong with the child?"

Xie Cheng'an's attention was also attracted by the noise outside. He turned to look outside the door and soon heard the doctor's complaining voice.

"Oh, why did you call the doctor just now? The child is..."

"Doctor, is there any problem?" Qian asked anxiously.

"Your young master has a high fever and the heat has damaged his brain. His mental development may be hindered in the future." The doctor's words were very obscure, but they all understood his meaning.

The high fever has damaged his brain and he may become a fool in the future.

"How could this happen?" Gu Qiongsi looked up in horror and ran to the main house with Xie Chengan. Qian was holding Xie Rui in her arms, at a loss.

Seeing them coming, Qian immediately reacted, "God damn bitch, give me back my grandson, ah, I won't live anymore..."

Seeing her throwing a tantrum without caring about anything, Xie Chengan ignored her and walked directly to the doctor, "Doctor, can it still be salvaged? Rui'er is still young after all, look at this..."

The doctor shook his head helplessly, "It's too late. All I can do now is to use medicine to reduce the fever. As for what will happen in the future, it all depends on his luck."

"Oh my God, my Rui'er is still so young, how could he have a woman like this as his mother..." After hearing what the doctor said, Qian cried even louder.

Gu Qiongsi also felt a little timid in her heart. After all, Xie Rui was also her son. Even if she hated him in her heart, she knew that Xie Rui was the foundation of her life in the Xie family. Now that things had turned out like this, her situation in the future might become even more difficult.

"Sanlang, I, I..." Before Gu Qiongsi could finish her words, her vision went dark and she fell to the ground. Xie Chengan was immediately panicked and carried her to the couch again.

The doctor was busy for a while, and finally left two prescriptions, then shook his head and left.

This family, eh...

Qian was still hugging Xie Rui and crying. If her first grandson really became a fool as the doctor said, how could she accept it?

When Mr. Xie heard their words in bed, he sighed helplessly.

Only Dingxiang was still thinking at this time, if Xie Rui was so stupid, wouldn't the children she would give birth to in the future be more valued?

"Mother, you should take care of Rui'er in the future. After all, Gu Qiongsi has never been a mother and doesn't know how to take care of a child. Besides, the incense shop has already started preparations. I will run it together with her, so I won't have much energy to take care of Rui'er."

Xie Chengan lowered his head, his eyes fixed on an unknown place, but there was a hint of determination in his tone.

"Incense shop? The silver from Liuzhou has been delivered?" Qian asked in surprise. She also knew that someone had sent a letter to Gu Qiongsi today.

"No, I haven't. But this time, I will go to Gu Xunwei to borrow money. We can't let money tie our hands and feet at this time. If the incense shop can't be opened, our future will be even more difficult than it is now."

Xie Cheng'an's words were well thought out. He considered a lot and finally felt that everything else could be put aside for now, but he must find a way to open the incense shop.

Even if they start out with a small business, it is possible to grow big. As long as their Gu's incense recipe works, they will have a chance to turn things around.

As a scholar, he used to be a person who valued his reputation the most, but now, he had to go back to the merchant woman, hoping that she would support them a little because of their marriage.

So, after Gu Xunwei had lunch, just when she was about to take a nap, she heard Chenxiang coming over and saying that Xie Chengan wanted to see her.

He was stopped by Zhu Da in the front yard.

Gu Xunwei raised her eyebrows, not expecting that they would give up so soon.

When he arrived at the hanging flower gate, he saw Xie Cheng'an standing in the front yard looking around. He didn't know what the backyard was like after he moved out, but the front yard had undergone earth-shaking changes.

Not only were the furnishings and furniture replaced, but even the glazed tiles on the roof and the floor tiles were all replaced with new ones. You didn't have to go into the study and the back room to tell from outside the door that everything must have been rearranged.

How could Gu Xunwei look like she was short of money? Then what did she want to do by pretending to be broke?
