The Grand Secretary's Pampered Wife

Chapter 91.2

Little Jing Kong wasn’t a delicate child. Compared with the pain from his daily martial arts training, this minor injury didn’t hurt at all. He just wanted JiaoJiao to blow on his wound!

After successfully getting a blow to his wound, Little Jing Kong went out very happily!

Gu Jiao threw the used cotton swabs into a customized basket, and put the unused iodophor back into the small medicine chest.

Just now, all in her mind was to clean up Little Jing Kong’s wound, so she didn't look closely. Now that her eyes scan the medicine chest again, Gu Jiao realized that something was wrong.

"Why are there so many medicines all of a sudden?"

The medicine in her medicine chest was generally divided into two kinds: one was emergency medicine, which she herself put into the chest when she was a doctor in the research institute. She faced countless dangers while in the organization, and these drugs could save lives. Another kind of medicine appeared after coming here, such as Gu Yan's anti-heart failure drugs, Yao shi's anti-depression medicine, anesthetic used for Xiao Liulang's operation, and so on.

Either kind was necessary for her to cure diseases and illnesses.

At the moment, the medicines——

Six Flavor Rehmannia Pills?

Seven-stages Aphrodisiac Tea?

Yin nourishing and kidney-tonifying pills?

The strange tonics were all right. What was the most striking was the one lying right in the middle —— a bright box of birth, control, products!

Gu Jiao: Who touched her medicine chest? Why did it suddenly become so indecent?!

……

Yao shi decided to confess the truth to Gu Yan and Gu Jinyu after returning to the Hot Spring Villa.

But Marquis Gu was hesitant. He said, "Isn’t this... too hasty?"

Gu Yan was nothing to worry about since he liked Gu Jiao so much anyway. If you tell him that Gu Jiao was his own sister, he would only feel happy after knowing the truth.

But Jinyu was a different story.

She had always been the only daughter in the family. She was used to being held in the palm of people’s hands. Suddenly learning that she wasn’t her parents' own flesh and blood would surely be a hard blow to her.

"Jinyu will be sad." Marquis Gu said softly.

Yao shi frowned and said, "She’ll be sad, but isn’t JiaoJiao sad as well? JiaoJiao has just learned that she wasn’t born to the couple of Gu Family’s third branch."

Marquis Gu said sternly, "How can that be the same? What is the Gu Family and what is the Marquis Estate? That girl... Cough, JiaoJiao might be feeling happy after learning about her background, but Jinyu will be hit hard."

"Happy?" Yao shi shook her head and said, "I couldn’t see it."

Gu Jiao's reaction was so serene it was almost cold. When she still didn't know her origin, she wasn't that cold to Yao shi. All of a sudden, Yao shi became her mother, and Gu Jiao seemed to have erected a wall in her heart.

Yao shi thought Gu Jiao was unable to accept her because of her deep feelings with Gu Sanlang and his wife, nothing more. She did not suspect it was anything else.

Marquis Gu softened his tone when he saw that his wife's expression wasn’t well, and said, "JiaoJiao is our child, so is Jinyu. JiaoJiao needs to know the truth because she has to go back to the Marquis Estate, but Jinyu doesn't have to go back to that Gu Family, so why must we tell her?"

Yao shi had seriously considered the issue of not sending Jinyu back. To be fair, after raising Jinyu for so many years, she naturally couldn’t bear to send Jinyu away. Besides, Gu Sanlang and his wife had already passed away. Jinyu would just become an orphan if she went back to her real family.

Still, it shouldn’t be them to make the final decision. It should be Jinyu and the Gu Family.

After all, Jinyu was a Gu Family member. Even if her parents had passed, her grandparents, uncles and aunties were still there. They had the right to get Jinyu back if they wanted so.

Then there was Jinyu herself. If she insisted on going back, they shouldn’t force her to stay.

The same went for Gu Jiao. Yao shi would fully respect Gu Jiao's decision on this matter.

In dealing with the issue of mutual recognition, she was actually impartial to her two children.

But in Marquis Gu's view, Gu Jiao going back to the Marquis Estate would benefit her while Jinyu leaving the Marquis Estate was a loss to her, which was a bit unfair to Jinyu.

"I don't agree." Marquis Gu said.

Yao shi said, "How much you want to recognize JiaoJiao is how much the Gu Family wants to recognize Jinyu."

Marquis Gu said inwardly: Who wants to recognize that girl! Why should he get her back? To let himself be beaten up?

Marquis Gu talked about half of what happened in the Gu Family, leaving the other half unsaid. He only told her that Gu Jiao didn’t have an easy time growing up, and didn't dare to say that the Gu Family treated her miserably, because he was afraid that Yao shi would suffer so much grief.

However, if he didn’t mention it now, he feared that Yao shi would fall into the trap of that family one day.

Marquis Gu considered it for a moment and said, "I’m just thinking, that family is a bit dishonest, so let's not associate with them."

"What's the matter?" Yao shi asked.

Marquis Gu told her about how the Gu Family people tried to replace Gu Jiao with Gu Yue'e.

"Such a thing happened?" Yao shi frowned and asked, "Didn't that mean JiaoJiao suffered a lot in their home?"

Marquis Gu said hurriedly, "I have already taught them a lesson!"

Yao shi couldn’t wait to recognize her daughter now even more. Considering the hardships she had suffered over the years, Yao shi could hardly wait to give her the best treatment for the rest of her life.

Marquis Gu gently coughed and said, "Looking at the Gu Family's situation, we can't let Jinyu go back to them just to suffer."

Yao shi replied, "Of course I won't let her suffer. She is also my child."

She had bad times with Jinyu, and in those times, she didn't understand why she couldn't be a competent mother. Now that she knew the truth of her background, she was relieved.

Jinyu wasn’t her own, so she couldn’t love Jinyu as dearly as Gu Yan.

But from now on, she would continue to love Jinyu as an adoptive mother, in the same way as the couple of the Gu Family’s third branch loved their child.

Yao shi said, "Whether Jinyu returns to the Gu Family or not, she will always be my child."

Marquis Gu was relieved to hear this from Yao shi. As long as Yao shi didn't insist on sending Jinyu away, Jinyu herself wouldn't have to leave them.

That night, the couple called Gu Yan and Gu Jinyu into the room and confessed the truth about the mix-up to them.

Marquis Gu said seriously, "...both of you also know that child, she is the medicine girl of the Rejuvenation Hall."

Sure enough, Gu Yan's eyes lit up upon hearing his words!

Originally, he didn't have any reaction when he heard that Gu Jinyu wasn't his real sister at all, but when he learned that his sister was Gu Jiao, he almost floated in happiness on the spot.

Gu Yan barely managed to sit back down, but Marquis Gu already had a picture in his mind: Gu Yan holding up his hand in the air and then hopping around the house with an invisible stick in hand!

"Hah!" Marquis Gu held his forehead.

Get out of his head!

Meanwhile, compared with Gu Yan's excitement, Gu Jinyu seemed to have been struck with a bolt of lightning!

She didn't expect that her parents' own flesh and blood wasn't her, but the girl whom she looked down upon was!
