Thinking back to five years ago, Chu Qingwan's eyes turned cold.
After being driven away, she was penniless, and her injuries were not treated in time. The infection caused pus and caused high fever. She fainted on the way to the mountains to find herbal medicine.
She thought she would definitely die, but unexpectedly, the old man of the Chu family sent someone to find her. After secretly curing her, he sent her out of Dayan and gave her a large sum of money to settle down.
With this money, she gave birth to her three children safely.
Chu Qingwan had no nostalgia for Beijing and had no plans to come back, but half a month ago she received news that Mr. Chu was not well.
The old man had shown kindness to her, and even if she no longer wanted to mess around with the Chu family, she still had to come back and have a look.
More importantly, her engagement with Ye Chenxuan is still there.
According to the custom of Dayan, in order to terminate the marriage contract in which a woman is designated as the head wife, both parties must sign a termination agreement at the same time before the marriage contract can be destroyed. From then on, the marriage between a man and a woman has nothing to do with each other.
Therefore, Chu Huaian ordered her to come back.
Chu Qingwan suppressed his emotions and was just about to tell the three little ones not to run around when they arrived in Kyoto, when two birdsong came from outside.
Dabao Tuantuan's eyes lit up and he opened the car window. A peregrine falcon with smooth feathers landed on the window and rubbed his face affectionately with its head.
"Be good, Zai Zai."
Tuantuan touched its wings, untied the bamboo tube from its feet, and patted it twice. The peregrine falcon flapped its wings and flew away.
There was a note in the bamboo tube. After reading it, he said: "Mother, King Qi of Dayan has offered me ten thousand taels of gold and wants you to treat his leg. What do you think?"
Chu Qingwan refused without thinking: "No time."
Because of her relationship with the Chu family, she had no favorable impression of the powerful. One of her medical principles was "not to treat the powerful", and she had other things to deal with when she came back this time, so she really didn't have time to waste.
Tuantuan showed an expected expression and turned to wink at her younger siblings.
The two girls agreed, and Yuanyuan said: "Mother, we are going to live in Kyoto for a long time, right? Do we need to buy a house? Hire some servants? But we have no money, what should we do?"
Chu Qingwan was surprised: "Didn't you just make a fortune some time ago?"
Yuanyuanmian didn't change his expression: "I lost money in other businesses and lost my capital. If you don't make money, our family won't be able to open the door."
Chu Qingwan was shocked.
Her three children each had their own abilities, and she had always been assured that the money would be at their disposal. She was thinking that she could enjoy her old age early, but she never expected that she would have no money.
Tiantian came over and said: "Mom, please help him treat it, otherwise we will all be hungry, and Zaizai, he needs to eat meat every meal..."
Chu Qingwan pinched her eyebrows and said, "Let's talk about it later."
Tuantuan and Yuanyuan looked at each other, slightly anxious.
They didn't really covet the 10,000 taels of gold. The reason why they wanted Chu Qingwan to go was because they suspected that King Qi might be their irresponsible father!

At the same time, a black carriage was driving slowly on the same official road.
In the car, a man dressed in black closed his eyes and meditated, his long eyelashes casting a small shadow under his eyelids.
His face was slightly tilted, the lines from his eyebrows to the bridge of his nose and then to his mandible were perfectly undulating, and his bones were in excellent shape. Even if he didn't open his eyes, the condensed coldness around him was intimidating.
Lin Yu, the personal guard, reported outside the carriage: "Your Majesty, the miracle doctor we are looking for has not yet responded. I guess no one can break that rule."
The man opened his eyes, his narrow eyes filled with coldness: "Increase the medical fee tenfold and increase our efforts to find someone. I don't believe that I can't hire her!"
