It had only been three or five days since Eldest Miss was one year old, and it was Xie Jingxi's first time making such a large feast, she was unfamiliar with it, but luckily, he was not too flustered, and the two manager lady that were just beaten up earlier did not stop her immediately, but instead put in great effort in making it seem that everything was in order.

The only thing that made Xie Jingxi upset was that her mental state was in chaos. Gu Yun busied himself for a few days from time to time, but her mental state was exceptionally bad. Even he felt that his illness was not light, so he tried his best to adjust it.

The night before Eldest Miss's birthday, news suddenly came from the second room. It was that Eldest Miss was sick, Xie Jingxi had already lied down, and hastily got dressed, and called for Imperial Physician Pei to come over, "We can only temporarily trouble you, Imperial Physician Pei. In the evening, send a clever person to invite you, this is a sudden sickness of Eldest Miss, please do not be at ease with the others."

These few days, Xie Jingxi's mental state was not good. Every day, Young Master would instruct the whole courtyard to be careful and not disturb her at night. After being shocked by the Second Room, she probably couldn't sleep again in the middle of the night. So Ming Yu did not dare to leave her side, but since Fang Dai was there, he had to trouble her to go and ask for Imperial Physician Pei.

Eldest Miss was just a little baby, it was normal for her to be sick and have fever, but because of what happened with Big Brother, everyone was a little weak, and even a little headache would cause them to be on tenterhooks. She was born with two children, who knew if she had the same problem, Big Brother only had fever.

Xie Jingxi was also afraid of the two little kids, they were all things that suddenly happened, and even if Big Brother and Xie Jingqi's men haven't found out, who knows if they would make a move against the Eldest Miss, even if it was because it was too late at night, I can't care that much, saving someone is more important.

Xie Jingxi did not go to Gu Heng's courtyard to obstruct her eyes, as she was afraid that Xie Jingqi would go crazy again. She only busied herself in the outer courtyard, Lady Zeng went in by herself, while Marquis waited for Imperial Physician Pei in the outer courtyard.

"Father, it's good that there's a wife watching over us here. It's so late at night, why don't you go rest first?"

"If it's like this, I won't be able to sleep, so I'll just wait until Eldest Miss is fine." Marquis looked at her, "It's been hard on you these few days, you did well."

"It's what a wife should do."

"How is Gu Yun recently?"

Look at this father and son, they lived in the same courtyard as strangers, and even asked Xie Jingxi to be the messenger. "He's still okay, it's just that sometimes she's been called over to eat, he came back a little late."

When he thought about how Gu Yun had not returned yet, Xie Jingxi's heart was also in turmoil. Coupled with the fact that Eldest Miss's situation was uncertain, he was a little anxious, and it was so easy to get Pei Zixi to come over. The Marquis hurriedly accompanied him to Gu Heng's courtyard.

The moment Pei Zixi entered, he was stopped by Xie Jingqi, "Imperial Physician Pei, I believe in you, quickly let us Eldest Miss see if there are any obstacles."

Last time when she had to deal with her big brother's matter, even though she knew that Xie Jingqi was unreliable, she still had to ask him to stand guard by her side. She did not want him to say that there was someone in the house who wanted to harm Eldest Miss, so she decided to see him with her own eyes.

He didn't say anything at night, and still showed it to the Eldest Miss earnestly. Not long later, he came out, "It's okay, don't be afraid, it's just a child's fever, no matter how normal it is, there's no need to prescribe it. I'll cool it outside her body and smoke some more herbs, and then the child will try her best not to drink any medicine."

This sentence caused everyone to heave a sigh of relief. Countless people broke out in cold sweat tonight, and Gu Heng personally saluted Pei Zixi: "Great kindness cannot be thanked with gratitude."

Pei Zixi waved his hands, "It's no big deal. A child is sick, as your parents, you all need not be too nervous, just send someone to tell me at any time if there's anything. Your Eldest Miss has a good Innate Ability, it won't cause any big problems."

It was already close to the sea, and when she went back to her room, Gu Yun had just returned. Seeing that she was not in a good mood, Gu Yun did not say much and could only coax her to sleep.

The next day, Xie Jingxi woke up early, just in time to be with Gu Yun. Fortunately, Gu Yun was there last night, so she was able to sleep soundly, and his spirit was much better in the morning. Gu Yun was not at ease with her, so he instructed his a few times, "You should take care of yourself.

I'm fine, don't worry about me. It might be because I've been dependent on Spirit-Sobering Medicine for a long time, so it's normal that I feel a bit uncomfortable after stopping. But you, you have to be careful, no matter how busy you are.

Gu Yun pecked her on the mouth, "I can't today, General Sheng is going to return to the capital in a few days, so we need a few people from the Ministry of War to help us prepare the ceremony for her. At that time, we will be fine since we will have to busy ourselves for a few days, and at that time, I will accompany you well."

What else could Xie Jingxi say? She could even think of her when she was busy, and could no longer complain. On the other hand, as for the Marquis Mansion, it was inevitable that she had to help him cover it up.

Xie Family people were the first to arrive, as they ate breakfast, they came, but they did not come in one wave, rather, they came in first as Lady Xu entered Xie Jingqi's room to look at him, not even glancing at him. The other old lady led Sixth Miss to talk to Xie Jingxi from head to toe.

"Grandmother, Big Sis, did you two bump into each other?"

Sixth Miss ran over and grabbed Xie Jingxi's arm, "That's right, Big Sister Third Sister. Grandmother and I met Big Sister on the way, so we came over together."

After not seeing her for a few months, Sixth Miss had grown quite a bit. She already looked like a pavilion girl, and her personality was a lot more lively.

"Sixth Miss is so beautiful now that I don't dare to recognize her. Come quickly and let me see."

Sixth Miss came over and took Xie Jingxi's arm. She was already an adult girl like her, so Xie Jingyi laughed: "They're all people Grandmother brought out, they're naturally different. Not to mention you, even I don't dare to recognize them."

However, the old lady looked at Xie Jingxi first, "Why do I see that you've lost weight again?

"How could I? I eat quite a lot three meals a day because I missed you."

The old lady glanced at her with a smile and scolded, "You little rascal, there's no one you can't coax."

When they heard that the Old Granny Xie Family had arrived and that the Lady Zeng had personally come to welcome them, as well as the Xing Family Lady Zou from the second branch had come as well, the entire family was in an uproar.

"Eh? How come I haven't seen the young master's man? He didn't even show himself on such an important day, what a great face. "

When Xie Jingxi heard this weird voice, she felt a headache. It was such a coincidence, but Xie Jingqi, who was carrying Eldest Miss, came over with him, just in time for the Second Branch Fourth Miss to say this.

Fourth Miss was also someone who had been at a disadvantage for a long time, he did not dare fight against Xie Jingqi after being beaten up by him. He knew that Gu Heng was the patriarch of the Marquis Mansion, so he started to fawn on him, and turned his attention back to Xie Jingxi.

When the time came, the Marquis Mansion family would split apart and the Eldest Young Master's branch would be no different from the Gu household's second house. Gu Yun had never talked about this with his, so it was natural that he would not be afraid of her, even if he were to try to bully her. Furthermore, he did not want to be afraid of him, even if he wanted to.

It just so happened that Gu Wan was not here this morning, otherwise, he would have gone up to piss her off with her big mouth.

As the second branch head's wife, Lady Zou had to come out and smooth things out, "The Eldest Young Master must be busy at the yamen. The whole family does not care about this, their hearts are the same."

Fourth Miss continued, "Who can see such a thing? He is just a mere fifth rank official, how much work can he do? Even the Crown Prince has sent people over to send gifts, where is the gift from the eldest young master?"

Xie Jingxi was about to retort, but Gu Heng interrupted her: "Fourth Miss doesn't need to worry about my big brother, he does have matters to attend to today, he has already informed me earlier and sent over the wedding gift a long time ago, is Fourth Miss still not satisfied?"

Fourth Miss was choked quite heavily by his words, his hot face did not stick to his hot butt, and she did not dare to speak anymore. Luckily, Gu Heng knew how to use Gu Yun to talk, and did not embarrass him.

Xie Jingxi could not stay in the house, there were still a lot of things that needed her to do, including welcoming the wives and grandmothers of the families, these were all her work. When the Lady Zou saw that she was helping, she took the initiative to come out to help her, without anyone to help him play with, she followed by her side to help.

"Sister-in-law Zou, you're a guest today, so I'll have to trouble you to come and help."

"What are you saying? We're all family. If there's any trouble, it's not troublesome at all. Since I can't interject, it's better for me to come out." There was an apologetic tone in Lady Zou's words, "Just now, Fourth Sister was insensible, she was unlikeable with her mouth, don't take it to heart."

"How could I go against her? Sister-in-law Zou, you're too courteous."

The Lady Zou laughed, "That's good, I knew you were a reasonable person. Sigh, is this really the Sixth Miss of your family?

"I've never said it before. She's only fourteen after the new year, and she's still young. Now, there's only such a young lady left at home, and her treasure is very precious."

When she reached the age of a discussion, Sixth Miss no longer hoped that Lady Xu could bring her out. When the wife of the family didn't care anymore, it would be difficult for them to get married in the future. When people talked about a wife, they would have to ask the lady who brought her up first, as this was a test to see if a girl could be on the stage or if she was virtuous or not.

Lady Zeng looked at Sixth Miss a few times, "She's a proper child, and there's even a three or four of her with you. I wonder what the girls in the ate and grew up with, they are all very pretty."

Sixth Miss bashfully said: "I am the ugliest girl in my family. I am far inferior to Sister Third Sister."
