“There isn’t much medicine in one bottle, but it works well. I used many precious medical herbs to make it, so 2000 liang isn’t that much.” Gu Chaoyan answered seriously, refusing to say anything more.

Old Master’s face twisted.

What he meant was that the payment might be too little whilst she worried that 2000 liang was too much. For the Min Mansion, this amount of money was nothing.

It would make everything easier, if what she wanted was the payment only. She cured Madame Min, and the Min Mansion paid her accordingly. That was all.

The Old Master was in a good mood. He smiled and asked the housekeeper to fetch the money.

!!

They gave her the payment today and the next day, they could offer her an extra present. Then the whole deal would be settled.

For one moment, the Min Family felt really happy.

Zhou Huailing was in a good mood too.

Mrs. Min showed no expression. Elderly Liao threw a pitiful look at the Min Family.

Elderly Liao and Mrs. Min were good friends, despite their age gap. He only came to carry out the treatment because he respected Mrs. Min.

In the past, he did not understand why Mrs. Min would move out, when her husband pa.s.sed away rather than move into the Min Family. Mrs. Min’s husband left ages ago and they had no offspring. Therefore, she was living alone in a mansion outside the family. Elderly Liao felt concerned about her, so he asked her to move into the Min Family instead, after all, the Min Family was a century-old n.o.ble family with a firm ground in the capital, and the Min Family respected her as well. Therefore, if she could stay in the mansion, she would be sheltered. However, Mrs. Min refused to answer him every time the question was raised. She did not want to move back to the mansion.

That had always confused him, but today he suddenly realized why.

The Min Family was indeed a n.o.ble family with a long history, but the Min Mansion had become different from before. Those who were inside the mansion were not like those in the past, and the Min Family had lost their essences.

That was what he concluded just now.

The Min Family was even trying to stay cautious and defensive against a young lady who just saved Madame Min, whilst the young lady herself never had such an idea.

The Min Family was no longer as wise as before.

Mrs. Min was not an ordinary woman, and she did not like to get involved with those kinds of people.

Now he understood everything.

Mrs. Min could just live by herself. She should not return to the Min Family. She just could not accept the way the Min Family treated people.

The only person who was a match for Mrs. Min must have been the young, handsome man who pa.s.sed away earlier. Mrs. Min was still young back then, otherwise they were a wonderful couple!

Elderly Liao felt gratified inside his heart, got up and said farewell. “Since Madame Min is okay, I am leaving now. My grandchild loves to stay with me, and he would be very sad if I am away for too long.”

Hearing this, the Min Family did not force Elderly Liao to stay. They expressed some words of thanks before Mrs. Min saw him off at the door. Elderly Liao thus received the full respect.

The housekeeper of the Min Family got the money, gave it to Gu Chaoyan, who nodded and was about to leave with Zhou Huaijin, without saying anything more.

As she pa.s.sed by Junyi, she threw a calm look at him. “So… Do you think I am useful, or are you?”
