Chapter 554 From Doubt to Shock
Precisely because he had watched her grow up, Mr. Tang was familiar with Qin Shuhua's character. He glanced at the latter's cheek as she tried to get close to him. From the force and the marks, it seemed that she had indeed suffered a lot of grievances.
"Mr. Tang! Grandpa Tang~" Qin Shuhua saw that Mr. Tang didn't say a word and couldn't help but act coquettishly again.
She seldom called him "Grandpa Tang" after she turned 20. It's not that she didn't want to, but her father wouldn't let her. He insisted that Mr. Tang was the president of the medical college and not a relative of the family, so calling him that inevitably made people feel like he was trying to curry favor with him.
"Okay Shuhua! Mr. Tang still has important things to do." Qin Liguo glanced at the boxes in the guards' hands. He knew in his heart that these must be the medicinal materials used on his father. With such a large quantity, he was afraid that they would really run out of supplies.
Qin Liguo felt heavy-hearted, not only because of the pain of his father's impending death, but also because the Qin faction was about to fall.
The Jiang and Qin factions appear to have a harmonious relationship, but in reality they are incompatible. From now on, he should be demoted as mayor. If he wants to move up a level, he may have to depend on the attitudes of the Jiang faction.
Thinking of this, Qin Liguo showed a self-deprecating smile on his face. How could he care about Qin Shuhua's grievances?
He took a deep breath and bowed respectfully to Mr. Tang: "Mr. Tang, I haven't been here for a while. How is my father's health? Thank you for your concern."
Mr. Tang still didn't say anything. His eyes swept through the crowd and landed on Gu Yuehuai.
He walked up to Gu Yuehuai, looked him up and down, and asked gently, "Is Doctor Gu okay?"
Qin Liguo and Qin Shuhua were both stunned by this reversal.
"Mr. Tang?" Qin Shuhua's expression changed again and again, and she looked at Gu Yuehuai with eyes as if she was looking at a ghost. If it weren't for Qin Liguo's sharp eyes, the words "Are you getting senile and confused too?" that were stuck in her throat would almost come out of her throat.
Compared to Qin Shuhua, who was missing a brain or cerebellum, Qin Liguo obviously had a brain. He frowned slightly, then put on a respectful expression and walked to Elder Tang: "Elder Tang? Does this military doctor Gu really have a way to save my dad?"
Although he asked this, he couldn't hide the doubt in his eyes. She was really too young.
Elder Tang snorted coldly: "If Doctor Gu can't do anything, then you should pack up and prepare for your father's funeral."
His words were very blunt. Qin Liguo's pupils shrank and he couldn't help but bend his back towards Gu Yuehuai.
Elder Tang ignored him and said, "Doctor Gu, the girl from the Qin family has a bad temper. You can help teach her a lesson and let her know that there are people out there. If she has offended you in any way, Elder Feng will personally vent his anger for you."
Mr. Tang laughed as he spoke, not taking this farce seriously at all.
Qin Shuhua, who was standing by, turned completely pale and clutched her bag tightly in her hand.
Gu Yuehuai narrowed his eyes slightly: "It's okay, but I am very suspicious, why would the authorities raise such a daughter?"
Mr. Tang, Qin Liguo and Gu Wei's expressions changed. This was questioning Qin Yougong's character!
However, no one dared to blame Gu Yuehuai at this time. Elder Tang sighed and said, "Doctor Gu, to be honest, the authorities made many enemies back then. Our once prosperous family is now dwindling, with only one son and one daughter left."
"Shuhua is the youngest and is considered the oldest daughter of the authorities. She is a little overused, but don't worry, she is just a little arrogant. She has never done anything to let down the country or the people. She is still very clear-headed when it comes to right and wrong."
Gu Yuehuai's brows relaxed and he said calmly, "I hope Comrade Qin Shuhua can apologize to Shao Yu for what she just said and did."
Before Mr. Tang could say anything, Qin Liguo nodded and said, "Of course! Shuhua was the first to speak rudely, so she should apologize!"
After saying that, Qin Liguo turned around and looked at Qin Shuhua, who was trembling with tears in her eyes, and asked, "Why don't you apologize?"
If Gu Yuehuai was the only one who could save his father, let alone an apology, he would not hesitate even if Qin Shuhua and he knelt down. If the Qin family's crisis and survival could be solved with just an apology, what else could he say?
Qin Shuhua bit her lip and was unwilling to speak. With so many people watching, when had she ever been so embarrassed?
Qin Liguo frowned and said sternly: "I said, apologize!"
Qin Shuhua was so frightened that her whole body trembled, and she couldn't stop crying. She whispered, "I'm sorry, Doctor Gu, I'm sorry to this comrade, I was outspoken, it's my fault, please don't hold it against me."
After saying this, she felt weak all over and a little ashamed and angry, but she didn't dare to turn around and leave in anger, for fear of offending others again.
Gu Yuehuai glanced sideways at Yan Shaoyu, his eyebrows and eyes were still cold and sharp.
However, since Qin Shuhua has already apologized, there is no need to keep holding on to it. The goal of their trip is to resolve the Qin faction's serious illness and to deal with the sorcerer behind the Jiang faction. They should not create unnecessary complications.
Yan Shaoyu pursed his lips and tightened his hand slightly with Gu Yuehuai.
Gu Yuehuai nodded, no longer looking at Qin Shuhua, but said to Elder Tang: "Elder Tang, are the herbs ready?"
Mr. Tang breathed a sigh of relief and pointed at a few boxes with a smile: "Everything is ready, see?"
Gu Yuehuai nodded and said, "Please bring these herbs into the room, Mr. Tang. I need to pick some and boil them into medicine." After that, she raised her hand and looked at her watch: "The authorities should wake up half an hour after taking the medicine."
One stone can cause a thousand ripples.
Be it Qin Liguo, Mr. Tang, Gu Wei, or Qin Shuhua who was unable to hide her shame and anger, they all looked up at Gu Yuehuai, with excitement, excitement, and disbelief intertwined on their faces, but none of them questioned him at this time.
What the final result will be depends on whether Qin Yougong can wake up after taking the medicine.
Once he wakes up, this military doctor Gu will be the miracle doctor and lifesaver that the entire Qin faction needs to worship!
On the contrary, if Qin Yougong did not wake up, it would be difficult for her to get rid of the suspicion of being a liar, and she might even be involved in a lawsuit. So, whether she has real ability or is just bragging will be revealed later.
Mr. Tang did not dare to delay and immediately asked someone to carry several boxes of medicinal herbs into the house.
Gu Yuehuai gave Yan Shaoyu a look, then went into the room with Old Tang. A moment later, Old Tang came out with a plate of medicinal herbs. Without even having time to say hello, he hurried to boil the medicine.
After Mr. Tang left, Gu Yuehuai slammed the door and stayed in the room alone.
Qin Liguo looked at the closed door, narrowed his eyes slightly, turned to look at Gu Wei who was spinning around, and asked in a low voice: "Lieutenant General Gu, how much do you know about this military doctor Gu?"
Gu Wei glanced at him. After all, he was Qin Yougong's only son. He didn't want to offend him, so he said, "Mayor Qin, you are joking. Since he was hired to treat the government, I have naturally investigated Doctor Gu's background thoroughly. Don't worry."
Qin Liguo's mouth twitched, and he cursed inwardly, "Old fox, what's the difference between saying it and not saying it?"
He took a deep breath. Although he still had doubts about Gu Yuehuai, what if there was a 0.01 chance that his father was really rescued? Then the dilemma faced by the Qin family could be solved immediately.
Thinking of this, Qin Liguo stared at the direction of the door, not daring to move his eyes away at all.
