Chapter 631: The Palace Rules for Seeking Death

The Jie Residence's Second Young Master proved to be a man of his word. The very next morning, he personally brought the consultation fee for Gu Youyou's visit to the Jie Residence.

For the medical examination of his former wife and concubine, he paid a basket full of silver, amounting to a thousand taels.

Gu Youyou, who usually dealt with large sums in silver notes, saw such a vast amount of actual silver for the first time. She reached out to lift it, but it was so heavy that her slender arms and legs could hardly bear the weight.

It became an embarrassing scene.

In fact, it wasn't Gu Youyou's fault; a thousand taels of silver at that time weighed over sixty jin. How could an ordinary young girl carry that, let alone Gu Youyou with her slight frame?

Seeing this, the Second Young Master suggested, "How about I help Doctor Gu carry it inside?"

Gu Youyou forced a laugh and hurriedly said, "No, I'll call my maids to carry it."
