Zhou Gu also felt a great sense of accomplishment. He didn't expect that the poison, antidote, and life-saving medicine that he couldn't even buy was hand-made by Su Rong and him according to the prescription.
He felt that if he had no money to spend in the future, he could collect medicines and sell medicines in exchange for money, and he would not starve to death.
He said to Su Rong sincerely: "You are really amazing."
If he was asked to just look at the prescription, he would have to study it for ten days and a half, and experiment countless times before he could make a bottle. But Su Rong was very smart, she didn't need to experiment, it was ready once it was made.
Su Rong stood up and beat her shoulders, "I didn't have any silver flowers before. My mother didn't give me any money, so I collected and sold medicines myself. I spent most of the day in Huichun Hall. I always dealt with these herbal medicines when I was a child. Of course not.
It would be too useless."
Zhou Gu suddenly felt distressed when he heard Su Rong mentioning her childhood. He thought it would be better if he had known her earlier. At least she would not have to worry about money.
Su Rong yawned and said to him: "Next door is Fengling's room. Go and find him to sleep for a while. I will also go to sleep for a while. Then I will go to the palace to visit His Majesty."
Zhou Gu was not sleepy, "I don't need to sleep."
Su Rong waved his hand to chase him away, "Go to sleep for an hour, wake up, have breakfast and then start working again."
Zhou Gu could only nod.
So, when Fengling got up early, opened the door, and prepared to practice martial arts as usual, he saw Zhou Gu walking to his door. He was surprised, "Fourth Young Master, you haven't left all night?"
Don't blame him for being too surprised, he really didn't expect Zhou Gu to stay in Su Rong's house all night.
Zhou Gu nodded slowly and explained to him, "I stayed with her all night to prepare the medicine. She drove me to your room to rest for an hour."
Fengling suddenly understood and quickly opened the door, "Then please come quickly."
Zhou Gu thanked him and entered Fengling's room.
Fengling closed the door for him. Seeing movement in Su Rong's room, she poked her head and called out, "Sister?"
Su Rong was packing up the sealed medicine bottles when he saw Fengling waking up and ordered him, "You wake up just in time. Seal these. I'll go sleep for a while. Call me after an hour and follow me into the palace."
Fengling scratched her head and said, "Okay."
Su Rong entered the back room, took off her coat, and fell asleep on the bed.
Zhou Gu, however, couldn't sleep well. He was lying on the bed next door, touching the medicine book written by Su Rong in wild cursive handwriting and thinking about what he had said since that day when Su Rong went to his yard.
After some heartfelt remarks, it seemed a little different when facing him now.
He couldn't tell what exactly was different. In short, he seemed to be very relaxed. He no longer deliberately distanced himself from her, was no longer silent mostly, and seemed to no longer treat him carefully and consider his emotions, but treated him as he pleased.
some.
Is this a good thing?
Zhou Gu thought this was a good thing. At least for him, she could give him a chance to get closer. He closed his eyes and felt a little at ease in his heart. Even if he couldn't fall asleep, he forced himself to fall asleep. After all, Su Rong was going to sleep today.
Enter the palace, and he has to do the unfinished work.
No, he seems to have forgotten something.
He quickly sat up and shouted, "Midnight."
No one outside should be.
He immediately got out of bed and opened the door. Fengling next door heard the movement and stuck her head out and asked him, "Fourth Young Master, what are your orders?"
Zhou Gudao: "I'd like to trouble Mr. Feng to send someone to the Duke Protector's Mansion to deliver a message to my mother, saying that I will start my journey again tomorrow."
Fengling agreed happily, "It's easy to say, just sleep. I will send someone to help the Fourth Young Master to send a message to the Duke's wife."
Zhou Gu said "Thank you" and went back to the room to lie down.
Fengling called a guard and sent him to the Protector's Mansion.
The Duke's wife went to Zhou Gu's yard early in the morning. After arriving, she learned that Zhou Gu had left the house last night and had not returned all night. She was a little anxious and asked Ziye, "Why did you not return all night? Did something happen?
matter?"
Ziye shook his head, "Madam, don't worry, nothing happened to the young master. The young master went to Xie's Mansion in Dongsi Hutong. I stayed outside the mansion for half the night. No one came out, and I didn't want to disturb him, so I came back first."
After hearing this, the Duke's wife felt relieved and said, "It turns out that we are going to Xie's Mansion."
She sat down and asked, "Brother Gu went to see Su Rong to say goodbye before leaving?"
Ziye was not sure, "Maybe?"
But it didn't take him a whole night to say goodbye, and he didn't dare to think deeply about what the young master was doing in his house all day.
The Duke's wife waited in Zhou Gu's room for a while, and then the guard sent by Fengling came to send a message, saying that Mr. Zhou was staying in Xie's Mansion to make medicine today and would set off tomorrow. He informed his wife that there was no need to wait for him.
The Duke's wife felt relieved and asked the visitor: "May I ask what kind of medicine you can make?"
The guard shook his head, "I don't know, but everything is fine with Mr. Zhou on Thursday, and the Duke and Madam can rest assured."
The Duke's wife nodded and could only let them go. She went to Princess Sheng'an's house to inform Princess Sheng'an.
Everyone in the Duke Protector's Mansion got up early and waited to see Zhou Gu off. Unexpectedly, the plan had changed, and everyone looked at each other in shock.
The eldest princess of Sheng'an actually smiled, "It's okay to leave tomorrow. I just said that the date set by the old man yesterday was too urgent. If the day is good tomorrow, everything will go smoothly if we go at a good time."
She waved to the three brothers, "You all go back to the military camp. My brother had a drink yesterday, so there is no need for you to wait to see him off tomorrow. Anyway, everything that needs to be said has been said."
The three brothers looked at each other and could only nod. After all, the military camp cannot be separated from people. Although they finally returned to the city, they could not stay long.
After the three brothers left, everyone dispersed.
The old Protector scolded him, "You stinky boy, you are so unreliable."
The eldest princess of Sheng'an glared at the old protector. She felt that he was very reliable. Zhou Gu went to say goodbye to Su Rong and could stay in the Xie Mansion without coming back. This shows that her grandson is useful. Otherwise, if Su Rong gets bored,
, can’t even get through the door of Xie’s Mansion.
After the old Lord Protector left with his hands behind his back, the Duke's wife came to Princess Sheng'an and lowered her voice and said: "Brother Gu went out at Xu's time last night and did not return all night. He has been staying in the Xie Mansion. According to the guards of the Xie Mansion,
It’s medicine.”
The eldest princess of Sheng'an had already thought wrong after hearing the first half of the Duke's wife's words. When she heard the second half of his words, she immediately stopped thinking and asked: "Pharmaceuticals?"
The Duke's wife nodded, "That's what the guard said. But the guard doesn't know what kind of medicine it is."
The eldest princess of Sheng'an was shrewd and guessed: "Su Rong is good at medicine and medicinal materials. Could it be that he is personally helping Brother Gu prepare the medicine that he carries with him?"
The Duke of Guo said: "My daughter-in-law has the same idea." She paused and said, "If this is the case, Su Rong is still very caring about Brother Gu."
Princess Sheng'an nodded, "Su Rong naturally cares about Brother Gu, otherwise he wouldn't have saved her once or twice." She thought thoughtfully, "Could it be that Su Rong's mind has changed? Otherwise, what could happen?
Maybe I can keep Brother Gu at Xie Mansion all night?"
The Duke's wife thought, "What mother means is..."
