Chapter 428: 217 Jealousy (First Update)
The Consort of Prince Rui had quite a few young sisters before she got married. However, after her marriage, they all drifted apart. Once she became the consort of the prince, they no longer treated her like the ordinary sister she had been before.
Miss Gu was really nice.
She never treated her differently or distantly because of her status as the prince’s consort.
In fact, she didn’t understand how Gu Jiao managed to do it. It seemed like she was always calm and composed, with not much affecting her greatly.
Being with someone like this was quite comfortable.
The Consort of Prince Rui sent her back to the Medical Hall, paid her consultation fee, and then left.
In the afternoon, the Medical Hall received a call for another home visit. The patient, who had once received treatment there, had his stitches removed.
Doctor Song and his team were busy, so Gu Jiao asked for the address and got on the horse-drawn carriage of the Medical Hall to go over.
The patient had a waist injury caused by fragments of a broken stove. He had over twenty stitches. While the initial healing was good, he had accidentally fallen while going to the restroom and the wound had partially reopened.
This time, the healing was good.
Gu Jiao removed his stitches.
“Do I have to take any medicine or apply any ointment?” the patient asked.
Gu Jiao shook her head: “No, this is good. Just keep to a light diet.”
The patient expressed his gratitude enthusiastically: “Thank you, Miss Gu!”
This patient was a regular craftsman invited by The Ministry of Works. He was a local resident of the Capital City, and would be able to return to the Ministry after his wounds were healed.
Gu Jiao thought of Jiang Shi and Little Jiang Li at the Medical Hall who had no home to return to.
However, she didn’t dwell on this for too long.
Gu Jiao got on the carriage.
The carriage driver, Little Sanzi, suddenly said, “Miss Gu, it seems very lively over there!”
Gu Jiao was inherently a cold person, but she liked lively places. This was indeed a contradictory characteristic.
She pulled back the curtain to take a glance and understood why it was so bustling: “It’s the Qingfeng Building.”
“Ah, is it that Qingfeng Building?” Though Little Sanzi had heard of it many times, he had never been and seemed quite eager.
The Qingfeng Building was one of the most elegant restaurants in the Capital City, providing food, drinks, entertainment, and even unusual gambling games from time to time.
“Let’s go take a look.” Gu Jiao suggested.
