"Sorry." Gu Yan looked apologetic, "They are at your disposal."
Chu Yunli also knew that asking Gu Yan to hand over the culprit was a delusion, but seeing the tears on Zhou's father's face, she felt a sharp pain in her heart, "Who is that? If we can't hand over the culprit, we should let us know who that person is.
Who is it? I don’t know how tall, short, fat or thin I am, I don’t even know if it’s a boy or a girl. Not to mention that my dad and I can’t accept it, I’m afraid my mother won’t be able to rest in peace either.”
Gu Yan was silent for a while, then took out a box from his sleeve and pushed it in front of Zhou's father, "I'm sorry, these are my compensation."
Father Zhou closed his eyes, tears streaming down the wrinkled corners of his eyes, and said nothing. Chu Yunli didn't have so many scruples. She was young anyway, so she asked, "What do you think of human life? That's my mother,
You killed her, left my father alone at a young age, made me lose my mother since I was a child, and now you use this to make up for it?"
Her mood was ups and downs, and the anger in her heart could not be suppressed. She asked again, "Can I also kill people and make up for it more than ten years later?"
She kept asking aggressively, especially after hearing her last sentence, the apologetic Gu Yan straightened his face and said, "Don't even think about finding out the facts. If you reported it to the official, the final result would still be the same. You took this box."
, accept these two people, and don’t mention this matter again in the future. Otherwise..." His tone was full of threats, he stood up solemnly, and walked out with one hand behind his back, his figure behind his back was solemn and threatening.
Chu Yunli's heart trembled. Gu Yan had been very tolerant of their father and daughter from the first time they met. This was the first time he was so serious. He really seemed to have the poise and calmness of an important official in the court.
Knowing that nothing could be asked anymore, Zhou's father held her hand and shook his head, indicating that she should stop asking. Chu Yunli's eyes fell on the two people who were tied up, wondering if she could ask anything from their mouths.
A bit of news. Upon closer inspection, her expression changed drastically.
Both of them had a piece of black cloth stuffed in their mouths. After looking carefully, they realized that the cloth was black, it was just dark black, and the color looked very abnormal. She took a few steps over, bent over and reached out to pick it up.
The strong smell of blood hit her instantly, causing her eyes to hurt. She only saw a bloody mess in the mouth of the person at hand, and the woman whimpered for mercy, but she couldn't utter a single word.
A chill ran through Chu Yunli's body. Was this... a tongue cut?
She quickly reached out and pulled out the cloth from the middle-aged man's mouth. The smell of blood was the same, and the flesh and blood were the same. Frightened in her heart, she took two steps back to steady herself.
Father Zhou's face didn't look good either.
Gu Yan, who had already reached the door, noticed Chu Yunli's movements. He paused and continued to move forward. When he was about to go out, Chu Yunli suddenly said, "Master Gu, please take them away!"
Gu Yan turned around and said, "This is the explanation you and your daughter have repeatedly requested."
Father Zhou said in a deep voice, "But they are already so miserable. We are just ordinary people. If the servants don't obey the orders, we just drive them out. We don't dare to kill people. Master Gu, you should take the people back."
Gu Yan turned around and looked at his father and daughter with deep eyes. He waved his hand for a while, and immediately his entourage came over and quickly pulled the two away.
"For the sake of your father and daughter's kindness to me, I sincerely advise you not to think about revenge. I will send someone to send you a thank you gift later." After saying that, he led the people and left the Zhou family courtyard.
The room was quiet except for Zhou's father's heavy breathing. Chu Yunli quickly stretched out her hand to feel her pulse and said comfortingly, "Dad, don't be angry."
Father Zhou sighed and patted her hand, "I will be fine, I still have to take care of you."
After this experience, Zhou's father was depressed for two days, then he cheered up and started doing business with all his strength.
Chu Yunli was relieved and studied medicine more seriously, and also deliberately studied acupuncture with Dr. Tian.
Dr. Tian is considered the best doctor in Huanxi Town. Even in the county town, his medical skills are still the best. He has been in the county town for only two months, and many people go to the medical clinic to see him.
When Chu Yunli became a disciple, he didn't just call his master as a joke like before. Instead, Zhou's father prepared generous gifts and brought them to his door. After three kneels and nine kowtows, he formally became his master.
After she became a disciple, Dr. Tian took out two ancient medical books and taught her the art of acupuncture.
After October, the weather became colder and colder. They were still used to the life in the county town. With Father Zhou and Dr. Tian here, Chu Yunli didn't think about home at all.
Gradually it came to the end of October. Although it didn't snow outside, the branches in the morning were covered with frost. If the water in the basin was left outside overnight, it would be covered with a thin layer of ice.
Over the past few days, there have been secret rumors in the city that Gu Yan has deep feelings for the woman he married, and he did not hesitate to return all the beauties to him.
To make people criticize. You know, it is said that Mr. Gu has a wife at home. So, he simply threw the beauty's sedan at the door of the post house at night... thinking that this should be accepted, but Gu Yan didn't expect
He directly sent the beauty back without any courtesy or courtesy.
As time went by, no one sent beauties to him anymore. On the contrary, it was reported that Gu Yan was obsessed with the woman who came to him with his daughter. Many people lamented that they did not expect that Mr. Gu from the capital was a
Deeply affectionate.
The weather turned cold, and the news of Gu Yan's departure from Eucalyptus City never came. However, I heard that someone found the inn, and she was also a woman. However, the woman who came back this time looked to be in her fifties, so no one was involved in those romantic days.
thing.
Some people also secretly rumored that the woman was Gu Yan's mother.
When Chu Yunli got the news, she planned to get up and go to the medical clinic. After hearing Chunyu's words, she frowned.
In fact, it is not difficult to guess that the person who originally sent the woman to attack her mother was Gu Yan's elder. Most men would not disdain to use such back-office methods. They should be the female elders in his family. This person...mostly him.
Mother.
The Shen family is just an ordinary merchant, and it is naturally not enough to support the Hou Mansion. Gu Yan and Shen Yun are in love with each other, and they are committed to each other. In the eyes of Mrs. Hou, Shen Yun is probably the goblin who bewitched him and wants to drag him down.
Naturally, he cannot keep a lowly merchant girl who has no future to help him.
You know, Eucalyptus is more than a thousand miles away from the capital, and it takes more than half a month to travel day and night. People who don't really love and worry about him won't bother like this.
Chu Yunli got up and went out as usual, secretly thinking that she had to find a way to find out Gu Yan's mother's attitude towards the two sisters Shen Qiuyan, and maybe she could find out something about what happened back then.
She always takes a carriage to go to the medical clinic. It has been cold in the morning recently, but the weather is still good in the afternoon. The sun is shining and warms people, so there are especially many people in the medical clinic after noon.
Originally, this medical clinic was considered one of the best in Eucalyptus City. It was very busy on weekdays, and even more so in the afternoon. After Chu Yunli was so busy, he just felt hungry. He got up and took Chunyu out, intending to find something to eat and give to others there. Doctor Tian, who was waiting in line, brought back some food.
As soon as he went out, a little girl hurried over and greeted him, "Miss Zhou, my master has invited me."
Chu Yunli raised his eyebrows and looked at the green shed carriage in the alley next to the avenue. He didn't know how long he had been waiting here. Chun Yu had already taken a step forward, stood in front of Chu Yunli, and asked, "Who is your master?" If you are so secretive, what will you do if you are a bad person? Who would dare to see him?"
The curtain of the carriage in the green shed over there opened, revealing Shen Qiuyan's face.
Chu Yunli was a little surprised. Ever since Shen Qiuyan begged and cried to Gu Yan at Zhou's house, the two of them had not seen each other again. With Shen Qiuyan's face-saving temperament, she didn't expect that she would come to see her. .
However, Shen Qiuyan was looking for her, so she had to go and see her? She immediately walked away and said casually, "I'm hungry and I'm in a hurry to eat." No time!
There is a restaurant not far from the hospital. The food is good and of course the price is good. Chu Yunli was very hungry and did not go upstairs. He just found a remote place to sit in the lobby and waited for the waiter to serve the food. .
Not long after he sat down, a woman in plain clothes sat down across from him. Chu Yunli frowned slightly and told Chunyu next to him, "Send the guy over."
The woman opposite her, Shen Qiuyan, suddenly looked ugly. The meaning of Chu Yunli's words was obvious. She was asking the waiter to come over and drive her away. He stopped Chun Yu and said urgently, "I have something important to discuss with you. "
Chu Yunli rubbed the cup and didn't answer for a while. Shen Qiuyan stood up and sat on the chair next to her, getting closer to her. More than that, she leaned forward slightly and leaned into her ear, "My grandmother is here. Eucalyptus City, do you know?"
"What does it have to do with me?" Chu Yunli was indifferent. From the corner of her eye, she saw that the waiter had already brought the tray to serve the food, but he didn't say anything about driving her away.
Not to mention whether the clerk dared to drive Gu Yan's daughter away, she herself wanted to get some words from her.
Unexpectedly, she didn't need to be a trap at all. Shen Qiuyan immediately said, "The woman who killed my mother was sent by my grandmother."
Chu Yunli sneered and asked, "How did you know? If your grandmother killed someone, would it be spread all over the world or even tell you?"
Shen Qiuyan was not angry either. She gritted her teeth and said bitterly, "Yesterday I went to pay her respects. The woman who was guarding the courtyard happened to be away and no one stopped me. It was getting late, so I didn't want to delay, so I walked in directly. Unexpectedly, I just happened to hear my father arguing with my grandmother, saying that even if Shen's daughter is not worthy of him, she can still discuss with him how to take her as a concubine and how to kill her. Fortunately, the ending is good, otherwise she would be a drag on the Hou family."
Shen Qiuyan looked ugly, "Grandma said that my father had a deep relationship with that woman and would not be willing to make her his concubine. Only by letting her disappear from this world can my father forget her... I was so angry when I heard this. , and couldn't go in to question, so I had to go out of the yard again, pretending not to know. I was going to come to see you yesterday, but it was too late, and I didn't sleep all night last night."
Hearing Shen Qiuyan's words, Chu Yunli was filled with anger, but she suppressed it, picked up her chopsticks and started eating, "It's useless to look for me, what can I do?"
Shen Qiuyan asked, "Don't you want to avenge your mother?"
Chu Yunli disagreed, "Compared with avenging my mother, I believe she would rather me and my father be happy." Even if she wants revenge, she won't tell you. With a family like the Hou Mansion, how can people know that she has a desire for revenge? Isn’t it too long-lived? People don’t need to do it themselves, as long as they talk about it, there are many people who will make things difficult for their father and daughter.
Shen Qiuyan didn't believe it, "If you don't take revenge, what about your father? He has a deep affection for his aunt. Now that he knows that she was harmed, how can he still hold it back?"
Chu Yunli picked up a bowl of soup and asked Chunyu to ask the waiter to pack food for Doctor Tian. He said casually, "No matter how deeply my father loves my mother, she is no longer here. He will not be able to distinguish priorities. Compared with It's like knocking an egg against a stone, he definitely wants me to do well."
"Why are you like this?" Shen Qiuyan was a little angry, "When I first knew that my mother was killed, I wanted to avenge her. I didn't expect that my aunt worked hard to give birth to you, and my uncle also loved you with all his heart. You actually So selfish!"
The expression on Chu Yunli's face remained unchanged. Shen Qiuyan saw it and was filled with hatred. After a while, she gritted her teeth and said, "Grandma likes my soup recently. If you don't take revenge, I will take revenge for you!"
"But don't!" Chu Yunli quickly raised his hand to stop her, "Don't take me with you when you do things."
Shen Qiuyan hated that iron could not become steel, "Why are you so timid?"
Seeing Chu Yunli continue to drink the soup unhurriedly, Shen Qiuyan hesitated for a while, then approached her and said, "I need your help!"
A faint sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of Chu Yunli's lips. After talking for a long time, she finally got to the point. She didn't ask any further questions, and didn't even look at her.
She didn't answer, but Shen Qiuyan still couldn't hold back her anger, "You can prepare some medicine for me that is difficult for others to detect. I will take it and add it to her soup. The effect of the medicine can be slower, but the main thing is not to be noticed by others. As long as you prepare the medicine, you won't need to do anything else. That medicine... do you understand?"
Chu Yunli's heart skipped a beat. He never expected her to be so bold and so simple and direct.
Hearing what she meant, she seemed to feel reassured about herself. Do you think she should be dispensing the medicine? It's right when you think about it. Compared to other doctors, it seems that she is more reassuring. At least Mrs. Hou is also her enemy. .
This is indeed a shortcut.
However, Chu Yunli didn't want her to have her way. As long as she dispensed the medicine, there was no guarantee that she wouldn't be implicated if things failed. Besides, poisoning Mrs. Hou would be more beneficial to Shen Qiuyan. She was like this I am eager to take action against Madam Hou, especially if Madam Hou refuses to take her back!
The father and daughter have always kept a low profile and have never expressed any hostility towards the Hou Mansion. Although Gu Yan spoke seriously that day, he was always in debt to their father and daughter. As long as the father and daughter are safe, I believe that the Hou Mansion will not Their father and daughter saw it in their eyes.
If he had given the medicine... Gu Yan would never leave two people alone. This would be tantamount to courting death. Besides, Doctor Tian had countless people in his life, and Chu Yunli was already his disciple, so he could no longer do things that would harm his reputation!
Chu Yunli looked curious and asked, "The county examination has passed. When will Mr. Gu leave to return to Beijing?"
Seeing her answer, Shen Qiuyan felt that she was willing to prepare the medicine, and relaxed slightly, "It won't take long, if grandma hadn't come here, we would have already set off."
Chu Yunli thought of something and said, "By the way, I haven't asked you why Madam Hou came all the way to Eucalyptus City. Do you know?"
After asking, Chu Yunli looked at her expression carefully from the corner of his eye, but couldn't see anything. When he looked away, he caught sight of her clenched fingers in her sleeves, and her fingertips turned white.
"I don't know." Shen Qiuyan's tone was quite calm.
It's not like she doesn't know. Don't let her guess it. Madam Hou doesn't want to take them back, right?
Shen Qiuyan was full of urgency and lowered her voice and asked, "When will you give me the medicine? It's best to hide it secretly and let the servants find a way to deliver it. It's best for us not to meet." She raised her head and looked at the lobby. , "How about I ask someone to come here tomorrow to pick up the food box, and you think of a way to put it in..."
"Wait!" Chu Yunli raised her hand to interrupt her, "When did I say I was going to give you medicine? Although the method of delivering medicine you mentioned is feasible, you have to pay money to buy medicine. Besides, you haven't yet Tell me what kind of medicinal materials need to be prepared, and you can tell me about the disease."
Shen Qiuyan was stunned at first, then became angry after understanding what she said, "You..."
Chu Yunli looked innocent.
"Are you pretending to be stupid?" Shen Qiuyan thought she was taking Qiao, and lowered her voice bitterly, "I want poison that can kill people slowly!"
Chu Yunli put down her chopsticks and said sternly, "I'm sorry, I'm still young in my medical studies and I'm not qualified for this kind of thing. My master can't do it, and I probably won't be qualified for it in my life. If you want to buy this kind of thing, you'd better find someone else." "
Shen Qiuyan couldn't help it any longer and sneered, "Don't pretend to be stupid!" She didn't want to hold it back. Since she recognized her relatives, she felt that her identity was different from that of the cousin she had grown up with. In the past, she was everywhere Holding her cousin in high esteem, it was the other way around now. Even though Zhou Mingxuan was still as willful as before, she felt that there was no need to suppress herself anymore, so her tone naturally contained a threat, "I am now the daughter of the Hou family. If you lie to me like this, how can I let you go?"
Chu Yunli waved her hand, "If you want people to know that you repay kindness with hatred... it's up to you."
If Shen Shenyan and her daughter had not been found yet, she might still have some concerns, but since she discovered that the daughter Gu Yan really wanted to find was not her, she was no longer afraid.
Shen Qiuyan should be more afraid of falling out of favor with Gu Yan than she is.
Chu Yunli took the food box and walked out. Shen Qiuyan's furious voice came from behind, "Don't regret it."
She didn't look back. She would regret it if she agreed to give her poison today.
After that day, Chu Yunli was still a little defensive. Every day when she went out, no matter how far or near, she would let Feng Shaoan accompany her.
Feng Shao'an has been learning to read the account books recently, so he doesn't accompany her all the time. Now that he knows that she may be in danger, he takes the account book with him. She checks people's pulses and dispenses medicine in the hospital, and he is holding the account book on the stool at the door. You can see him as soon as you raise your eyes, and then if he looks over, the two of them will look at each other and smile. In the noisy medical center, there is always a kind of silence between the two that no one else can interrupt.
Compared with their calmness, the largest courtyard in the post house was not so quiet. In the courtyard belonging to Madam Hou, Gu Yan looked impatient, "Jingzhong has sent a letter to remind me, I have to go back quickly!"
Madam Hou was there and was not in any hurry, "You can go back, and I won't stop you, but you can't take them with you."
Gu Yan was helpless, "Mom, don't do this, they are my wife and daughter."
Madam Hou sneered, "Your wife and daughter are in the capital. Your wife is the princess of Tian'an County, and your daughter is the princess of Jade County. They are both nobles with royal genealogy. Not just any cat or dog can enter the door of our Hou Mansion."
Mother and daughter Shen Yun, the cats and dogs mentioned by Mrs. Hou, were standing in the corner without saying a word, their eyes were red with their heads lowered. Gu Yan looked at the two of them worriedly and solemnly said, "Mother, the emperor has sent me a message to return to the capital. You Don't be so willful and think about your son's future, okay?"
Mrs. Hou sneered and pointed at the mother and daughter in the corner over there, "I didn't think about you! I just thought too much about you, so I didn't let them return to the capital. You took them back and offended Tian'an County. Lord, after offending the eldest princess, what future do you think you have?"
Gu Yan was speechless.
Mrs. Hou pointed out something, "If they think about you, they should ask to stay. It's not that I don't recognize the blood of the Hou family. As long as they behave well and don't think about going to the capital to cause trouble for the princess, I will naturally not treat them badly." At the very least... they will enjoy endless glory and wealth."
At the end of the sentence, her eyes were already looking at the mother and daughter in the corner, "More than that, in this city, the Hou Mansion can make decisions for you, and no one will dare to bully you. As long as you don't act recklessly in the name of the Hou Mansion Don't worry, in this city, I can guarantee that you will go as you wish. How about it?"
"No!" The mother and daughter over there didn't talk to each other, and Gu Yan had flatly refused, "I have missed Yun Niang for so many years, and I want to be with her in the future. I will explain to the princess."
Mrs. Hou sneered, "Explain what? Explain to her that you already had a lover before marriage and gave birth to two daughters? Or explain to her that you went out and brought back your so-called "wife and daughter"?" "
"The majesty of the royal family cannot be tarnished. When you do things, you must think of the Marquis Mansion!"
Gu Yan frowned, "Mom, there are some things you don't know. Princess, she will definitely not blame me."
"You are just arrogant." Mrs. Hou was furious and slapped the table. The mother and daughter in the corner trembled. "You and the princess have been deeply in love for many years. Everyone in the capital knows this. , are you taking them back now to slap the princess in public?"
After saying that, he looked at the mother and daughter in the corner, "The glory and wealth you want can only be found in Eucalyptus City. If you want to go to Beijing, it will be impossible with me here!"
The words were extremely sure and pointed, "Maybe you can guess the cause of your sister's death sixteen years ago."
This was a threat. Shen Yun immediately turned pale and returned obediently, "Madam, I grew up in Eucalyptus City. I don't dare to ask for anything else. I just want to have three meals a day to fill my stomach and have a roof over my head." Covering your body is enough. It’s just that Siyan has suffered with me since she was a child. I just hope that she can see more of the world in the future, even if she is... the adopted daughter of the Marquis!"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Hou raised her eyebrows in surprise, "You do have some ideas."
Gu Yan never expected that Shen Yun would be the first to let go.
The two of them had already guessed that Mrs. Hou would embarrass their mother and daughter, and they had already secretly discussed that if Mrs. Hou was in embarrassment, the mother and daughter should stop talking and just act obediently and submissively.
He couldn't hide the surprise on his face, "Yun Niang, I..."
Shen Yun looked satisfied, "Knowing that you come back to me, my life will be complete. I shouldn't strive for high things, so that's it, it's good."
The pain in Gu Yan's eyes was unspeakable, and Mrs. Hou's mocking voice came from the other side, "I told you, I won't take anyone with me."
Shen Yun could barely conceal her surprise. She didn't expect that this old lady was not even willing to take the blood of the Hou family. She originally thought that Shen Shenyan had a good appearance, and the biggest difference from Shen Qiuyan was that she hadn't made a marriage decision yet. After bringing her back, her marriage was at least a help. The old lady would not refuse. As for getting married, she felt relieved with Gu Yan watching over her.
Gu Yan originally wanted to bring their mother and daughter to Beijing, but after hearing this, he began to refute. When Mrs. Hou saw this, her face became even more ugly. He had repeatedly disobeyed her for the sake of a wild woman who didn't know where she came from. Could it be that as a mother, she had to raise How could he be no match for a woman from outside?
No one knows what goes on in the post house except the people who serve on it.
Shen Qiuyan never came to see her again, but a few days later news came out that Mrs. Hou was exhausted after traveling and traveling, and was unwilling to go out.
When Chu Yunli heard that Mrs. Hou was seriously ill, the first thing Chu Yunli suspected was Shen Qiuyan. She must have done something wrong.
Because of Doctor Tian's recent reputation, someone from the post house came to invite him in person. Chu Yunli followed him this time. Speaking of which, she had never met Mrs. Hou. She didn't know how she looked so indifferent. He sent people to kill two people without mercy.
When she actually saw the person, Chu Yunli was a little disappointed. Mrs. Hou's eyes were closed tightly, her face was pale and her lips were pale, she was just a sickly, wealthy woman. Her eyebrows were sharp and a little mean, and she could tell that she was a difficult person to get along with.
There was a circle of people around Mrs. Hou's bed, all with worried faces, Shen Qiuyan was among them. When she saw Doctor Tian taking her in, her expression changed and she suddenly said, "Dad, Doctor Tian and Xuan'er are helping grandma treat her." Is there anything wrong with my illness?"
Doctor Tian looked unhappy. He had already stretched out his hand to feel for his pulse, but he took it back when he heard the words, "What do you mean by this? Are you questioning my medical ethics?"
Gu Yan glared at Shen Qiuyan, then looked at Doctor Tian again, and said comfortingly, "That's not what she meant. Doctor, just treat her."
Doctor Tian took a lot longer to check his pulse than before. He seemed to be puzzled. He took back his hand for a long time and said to Gu Yan, who was worried at the side, "I'm overworked and my internal organs are restless. There are also acclimatizations. It seems that I still eat I ordered some food that was incompatible with each other.”
"Not sure." Doctor Tian frowned, "You have to be more careful about what you eat in the future. Don't eat new things. Let's take good care of ourselves."
After saying that, he walked aside and wrote a prescription. After writing it, he considered it for a long time and handed the prescription to Gu Yan, "Mr. Gu, find someone to get the medicine. Make three bowls into one bowl, four times a day, and let the patient drink more water. If If something goes wrong, have someone come to me immediately."
Gu Yan took the prescription and ordered the butler to send the master and apprentice back to the hospital.
When he returned to the medical clinic, there were many people waiting in line. Chu Yunli had some questions that he wanted to ask, so he had to wait for Doctor Tian to finish his work and sit aside to help write the prescription. It was getting late and the city gate was about to close. By then, the hospital was empty.
Chu Yunli's wrists were sore and weak. She rubbed her wrists and couldn't help but leaned over and asked in a low voice, "Master, what about Mrs. Hou's illness..."
Doctor Tian glanced at her and said, "It's just that I ate some food that was incompatible with each other. It's not serious."
"Did someone poison him intentionally?" Chu Yunli asked again.
Doctor Tian waved his hand, "This is not considered poisonous. As for whether it was intentional... I don't know." He then said casually, "People don't believe me anyway, so there's no need to think about it that hard."
This is true. Generally, wealthy people would invite a doctor to their home. Some of them would explain the symptoms, and the doctor would bring some medicine and prepare it on the spot. However, this kind of vomiting and diarrhea is not easy to prepare. Doctor Tian handed over the prescription at that time.
, Gu Yan should immediately find a maid to accompany Dr. Tian back to get the medicine. However, Gu Yan didn't mention it and took the prescription. Needless to say, he would definitely find another doctor to read the prescription before buying the medicine.
.
Furthermore, doctors usually pay a return visit for this kind of patient and consider the prescription based on the condition. Doctor Tian didn’t say he would come back when he left, and Gu Yan didn’t mention it either... All this shows that Gu Yan no longer trusts Doctor Tian.
of.
However, Dr. Tian said that after thinking about it, it can be seen that Mrs. Hou's illness is still somewhat suspicious.
In the next few days, the post office did not come to ask for Dr. Tian again, but instead went to another medical center to ask for an old doctor.
The weather was getting colder and colder. When Chu Yunli got home, after saying goodbye to Feng Shaoan in the front yard, it was getting late. She went back to wash up, but did not go to bed immediately. She sat in front of the window and looked out at the dark night.
The pot resembles a potted plant like a bamboo, but the difference is that the leaves of the bamboo are rough, while the bamboo leaves in this pot are delicate, just like ordinary small leaves. She pinched the slender leaves, thoughtfully.
Then, she got up carrying the potted plant and went to Zhou's father's yard, and said directly, "Dad, can you send this pot of bamboo to Mrs. Hou's house?"
Zhou's father had already rested, and now put on his cloak and went out. He was startled when he heard this, looked at her deeply, stepped forward to take it, "Don't worry! I will take care of it."
After another two days, Mrs. Hou's condition in the post office improved a little, but her body became more and more tired and inactive, and she did not want to eat. Her mouth felt bitter after taking medicine every day. Her illness was not serious, but she needed to be nursed back to health slowly.
The medicine won't stop for a while. The nanny beside her went out to a restaurant to help her pick out some delicious dried fruits for sweet snacks. On the way back, she met a porter selling small potted plants. She thought that the weather has been cold recently, Mrs. Hou wouldn't
I love to go out, but the inn is simple and there are no potted plants among the furnishings in the house, so I bought a pot of bamboo and took it home.
Chu Yunli went out early and came back late every day. She studied medicine very seriously and could already identify all the acupuncture points. Dr. Tian was pleased and gave her a few rouge prescriptions. She took them back to Zhou's father and asked him to
After trying it, put it in the shop and sell it.
Another month later, Mrs. Hou's condition in the post house was not getting better, and news came from Beijing again, asking Gu Yan to return to Beijing immediately.
Gu Yan saw that the old lady had been in low spirits all day long, but she didn't seem to have any serious symptoms. The doctor couldn't explain the reason, but only said that she needed to rest. There was already a gap between the mother and the son, and Mrs. Hou had a crush on Shen Qiuyan.
They were resolute and refused to let go and take them back to Beijing. They felt that she was pretending to be sick to get Qiao, and wanted him to compromise and not take Shen Yun and her daughter with her. In anger, they took Shen Yun, her daughter and Shen Qiuyan and set off back to Beijing.
This was a terrible move. Before he even left the gate, the old lady over there vomited a mouthful of blood and fainted. When he ran back to the yard, his face was blue and purple, and he was about to die.
Gu Yan was anxious. He wanted to fight with his mother about the whereabouts of Shen Yun and the others, but he never thought about letting his mother die. At that time, he ordered the housekeeper to find a doctor quickly.
The old doctor who had been treating the old lady was invited. After taking her pulse, she shook her head and said, "I'm so angry that I'm hurting my heart and lungs and destroying my foundation. It just depends on whether Mrs. Hou can wake up. She will be lucky enough to wake up later.
It's very possible that... it won't be good in the end." He also said that his medical skills were not good and asked Gu Yan to hire another expert.
Gu Yan was completely worried this time. This old doctor was the best doctor in the city before Doctor Tian came. He had accumulated a lot of reputation over the past decades and his medical skills must be good. He even said no... Anxiously, he ordered the housekeeper to invite all the doctors in Eucalyptus City to have a try.
The housekeeper was also anxious, because Gu Yan had to take Shen Yun and the others away to make the old lady angry. If word spread, it would not be a good reputation for Gu Yan, Shen Qiuyan, the others, or the Hou family. So soon, Someone was sent to invite all the doctors in the medical clinics in Eucalyptus City, big or small, to the post house.
Doctor Tian was naturally among them, and Chu Yunli followed voluntarily, carrying the medicine box and looking as usual.
In Mrs. Hou's yard, many people were crowded and whispering. They were usually middle-aged or older men with a steady face, with a young medicine boy behind them. There was also a woman in her forties. , a young girl like Chu Yunli is really the only one.
She is so young, so many people secretly look at her.
Aware of the sights from all directions, Chu Yunli followed Doctor Tian honestly without looking at anyone.
The housekeeper arranged for a maximum of two people to enter these doctors. Although there was no queue, it was obvious that they were admitted from high to low in terms of reputation and qualifications. Although Doctor Tian had not been in Yucheng for a short time, he had a good reputation, so he quickly joined the housekeeper. So I came over to invite them.
When he saw Doctor Tian, the butler's attitude was as enthusiastic as ever, and it seemed that nothing happened last time.
The room was almost the same as last time. Shen Yun, her daughter, and Shen Qiuyan were standing in the corner with worried faces. Gu Yan had his hands behind his back and looked cautious.
Doctor Tian took longer to check his pulse than last time. After a long while, he took back his hand, shook his head and said, "I can't do anything."
Hearing this, Gu Yan's already ugly face turned even darker, "Doctor, please wait outside. After checking your pulse for a while, you can discuss and see if there is any way."
Doctor Tian did not refuse.
Soon most of the doctors had gone in, and the housekeeper had already set up tables and chairs in the courtyard for everyone to sit. In fact, this kind of disease is very common when people get older. Even if the patient wakes up by luck, the symptoms range from poor speech and speech to severe symptoms. Hemiplegia occurs. But the prerequisite is that the patient must wake up, or he may just sleep to death.
After everyone discussed it, they still felt that medication should be the main method. After all, Mrs. Hou was of high status, and this was not the last time she had to deal with the situation. This time Mrs. Hou might just go like this, and there was no guarantee that Gu Yan would not be angry.
Gu Yan was disappointed, but everyone agreed that he was helpless.
After the doctors discussed and prescribed the medicines, the housekeeper stood at the door with a red envelope and gave them to each of them one by one.
Doctor Tian also followed the crowd and was about to leave. Gu Yan never thought of something, so he pulled him aside and asked in a low voice, "I heard that doctor's acupuncture skills are excellent. Can it be beneficial to my mother's illness?"
Doctor Tian was silent for a while, and then said, "It can indeed make the old lady wake up temporarily, but it will be extremely harmful to the body. If it is not the end of the force, I would not want to do this."
Gu Yan fell silent. Before leaving, Doctor Tian said, "If Mr. Gu insists, I will do my best."
After leaving the inn, Doctor Tian frowned in thought. From time to time he glanced at Chu Yunli, who had his head lowered. Seeing that he was about to arrive at the hospital, he couldn't help but ask, "Does it have anything to do with you?"
