Chapter 734: 734 consultation fee
Hearing her personally deny that she was willing to have any connection with Master Chang, he finally felt a little relieved in his heart.
With mixed emotions, he quickly regained his gentle demeanor.
Su Qingyue caught a glimpse of the fleeting pain in her third brother’s eyes and knew what he was thinking, but she didn’t want to explain.
Tao Meijiao had heard from Qingyue that she had not consummated her marriage with the Xiao Family’s men. Now that the owner of the world’s number one estate wanted to marry her, the Xiao Family… couldn’t hold her back.
Su Qingyue saw the maid Du Juan who had followed her in.
Looking at Du Juan’s facial expression, it was obvious that she also knew she was unnamed.
Tao Meijiao immediately said, “Du Juan has been with me for many years and is trustworthy. I will keep her mouth shut.”
“That’s good.” Qingyue nodded.
The three of them walked silently to the living room.
A servant brought pen and ink. Su Qingyue sat at the table and wrote a prescription. She handed it to Tao Meijiao, “Follow the prescription to prepare the medicine, boil two bowls of water into half a bowl, take it with every meal for one month, and your father will be as strong as a dragon.”
“Thank you.” Tao Meijiao examined the prescription and was immediately attracted by the handwriting, “Xiao Yue, your writing is neat and beautiful, with spiritual vigor and grandeur. Just by looking at your wonderful handwriting, I can tell that you are extraordinary.”
Su Qingyue smiled indifferently, not caring too much.
Maid Du Juan brought in a tray covered with a red cloth.
Tao Meijiao lifted the red cloth, revealing big silver ingots,”I heard that the consultation fee for the ‘Unnamed’ divine doctor is one thousand taels. It’s said that it’s a rule set by Master Chang. Here’s the medical fee.”
Su Qingyue sat in the chair drinking tea, looking at the shining silver ingots without any reaction. Hearing about the high consultation fee set by her uncle, she raised her eyebrows.
“One thousand taels is indeed not cheap.” Tao Meijiao said, “However, your medical skill is unparalleled in the world, Xiao Yue. It is said that many people are now desperately trying to get treatment at Pear Blossom Villa, but it’s a pity that Master Chang said his fiancée has gone missing. You are in my mansion, how honored I am!”
Xiao Yuchuan glanced at the silver and felt not only unhappy but suffocated by the pressure. Mr. Chang, that bastard, not only set the consultation fee for his wife but also claimed his wife to be his fiancée. It was infuriating!
Tao Meijiao was curious, “Xiao Yue, you said that when you saved Master Chang, you had a mask on. He really hasn’t seen your face?”
She shook her head, “No.”
“He wants to marry you without seeing your face. He’s really…” Tao Meijiao didn’t know what to say about Master Chang.
Su Qingyue playfully winked at her, “Why not, you could impersonate ‘Unnamed’, and pretend to be Master Chang’s fiancée.”
“No, no!” Tao Meijiao hurriedly waved her hands, “Not to mention I can’t get married; I can only take a husband to look after the Tao family’s business. Even if I could, I would want to marry someone young… Master Chang… He’s almost forty, no, no!”
Xiao Yuchuan heard his wife joking casually, even letting another woman impersonate the unnamed, and his heart lightened a lot. Even if Master Chang had a one-sided interest in his wife, her heart was completely with the Xiao Family.
Su Qingyue saw that Tao Meijiao was unwilling and didn’t say anything. She glanced at the silver on the tray. She wasn’t being polite about the deserved reward, “It’s inconvenient to carry so much silver; let’s change it to silver notes.”
“No problem.” Tao Meijiao took out two silver notes from her sleeve pocket and gave them to her, “Five hundred taels each, these are two one-thousand-tael silver notes.”
