Chapter 27: Seeking for an explanation
The father and son stared at each other stubbornly, neither of them giving in.
The old man suddenly changed color, and started coughing violently, staggering and fainting.
"Dad!"
"Grandpa!" The middle-aged man and the young man rushed forward anxiously.
After helping the old man to bed, the young man hurried to call a doctor. After
the doctor finished the examination, he looked at the two people who were anxious and worried, "The old man is angry, you should pay more attention in the future, and never make him angry, otherwise it is very likely that his life will be in danger."
"Okay."
He sent the doctor away.
Not long after, the old man woke up. He looked at the middle-aged man weakly, trembling as he stretched out his hand, "I know you want to find them, but don't you know your own physical condition? Your legs can't stand the torture. Dad is also worried about you... and they..."
The old man sighed, "Put it down." The
middle-aged man slowly stretched out his hand and held the old man's bruised hand. A bitter look flashed in his eyes. After a long time, he shook his head gently and said in a low voice: "Dad, I won't go." But he will not give up, unless one day he is really sure that they are no longer in the world.
The old man nodded slightly, his eyes full of relief.
When Zhou Yu returned home, he told Gu's mother and Gu Lili about Gu Qing'an being beaten.
"It's all my fault. If it weren't for me, Brother Gu wouldn't have let Ling Yao go, and she wouldn't have been beaten." Zhou Yu wiped her tears with guilt.
"What? Ling Yao beat my brother, doesn't she like my brother?" Gu Lili looked unbelievable. Ling Yao knew how much she liked her brother. In order to win her brother's favor, Ling Yao would often bring things to please her, do housework for their family, and give money to her mother, just hoping that they would say a few more good words about her in front of her brother.
Gu's mother also looked unbelieving, "Qing'an, did Ling Yao really beat you?" She still liked Ling Yao very much. Although she was not good-looking, she knew medical skills and could make money. Qing'an would not need to support her in the future.
Gu Qing'an frowned slightly and did not answer.
"Brother Gu." Zhou Yu looked at Gu Qing'an with red eyes.
Gu Qing'an looked at Zhou Yu and saw the redness on her face, and felt heartbroken. "What Xiaoyu said is true." "
It's really outrageous. Let's go and settle the score with her." Gu's mother pulled Gu Lili and walked towards the infirmary angrily.
"Mom, don't go. Let's forget about this matter." Gu Qing'an hurriedly chased after her.
Zhou Yu smiled triumphantly and stepped up to catch up. She just wanted to destroy Ling Yao's reputation and make her too ashamed to stay in the village in the future. And she also arranged a big show.
Ling Yao was carrying a lot of bags and walking towards home. Before she reached the door, she saw people gathered at the door. Her face changed and she hurriedly quickened her pace.
"Ling Xuemei, how did you teach your daughter? She actually dared to hit our Qing'an. You must give me an explanation today, otherwise this matter will not end." Mother Gu put her hands on her waist, and the fat on her face was shaking with anger.
Ling Xuemei's face was also very gloomy, "My Yaoyao will not hit someone for no reason, unless that person deserves to be hit."
"What do you mean?" Mother Gu pointed at Ling Xuemei angrily and wanted to rush forward.
She was stopped by Gu Qing'an.
Ling Xuemei sneered and glanced at Zhou Yu beside Gu Qing'an, "Doesn't Gu Qing'an have any changes of opinion? What's the difference between his behavior and Chen Shimei? Shouldn't he be beaten?"
"That's right, Ling Yao is such a good girl, but he broke off the engagement as soon as he came back and brought a woman back."
"It's just that there are no men in Dr. Ling's family, otherwise he would never let go of Gu Qing'an, a treacherous man."
"People like this deserve to be beaten."
The villagers blamed Gu Qing'an one after another. Whenever they were sick, they were treated by Doctor Ling and Ling Yao. They knew what kind of people Doctor Ling and Ling Yao were. Everyone has some minor illness. If they offended Doctor Ling, what would they do if they got sick in the future?
"You...you..." Mother Gu was so angry that she was shaking all over.
Gu Qing'an was ashamed. This matter was indeed his fault, so he didn't blame Ling Yao for beating him.
Zhou Yu's eyes flashed with a trace of unwillingness. She didn't expect that the villagers would stand on the side of Ling Xuemei and Ling Yao. Fortunately, she still had a backup plan.
Ling Yao squeezed into the crowd and came to Ling Xuemei's side, "Mom, what happened?"
Ling Xuemei glared at the Gu family, "They said you beat Gu Qingan, and you came to ask for an explanation."
Ling Yao put down the things in her hands, turned to look at the Gu family, and said in a light tone: "Since you are here to ask for an explanation, let's talk things out in front of everyone today. Aunt Gu, you have relied on your status as my future mother-in-law over the years to get a lot of benefits from me, right? I won't charge you much, just five yuan a month. . And Gu Lili, the hair tie on your head, the shoes on your feet, and the clothes you are wearing, were they all bought by me? And Uncle Gu’s cigarettes were also paid for by me. I don’t ask for much today, just forget about the 500 yuan, otherwise..."
Ling Yao’s cold eyes fell on Gu Qingan, "I will write a letter of denunciation to Gu Qingan’s troops." In her previous life, she was so stupid that she paid so much for Gu Qingan, a scumbag, but in the end, she was rejected and insulted by Gu’s family.
Everyone gasped when they heard Ling Yao’s words. The Gu family is too shameless.
Gu Qingan was also shocked. He didn’t know about these things. His family never told him.
"You dare!" Mother Gu pointed at Ling Yao angrily, staring at her with her eyes, wishing she could eat her.
"Then see if I dare." Ling Yao sneered.
"I'll beat you to death! You shameless thing, no wonder my son looks down on you." Mother Gu pushed Gu Qing'an who was pulling her, and wanted to rush forward to hit Ling Yao.
Gu Lili had already rushed out, waving her fist, "You gave those things voluntarily, you are a scumbag, you like to give yourself away, why do you want to go back?"
Ling Yao was not polite, she grabbed Gu Lili's waving hand and slapped her face several times. In her previous life, when she had just given birth, Gu Lili forced her to wash clothes by the river, which made her sick. Now that she came to him, how could he be polite? He only slapped her a few times, which was already a bargain for her.
Gu Lili was beaten so hard that she saw stars and felt a sharp pain in her cheeks.
"That's enough!" Gu Qing'an growled, "I'll give you 500 yuan."
Ling Yao stopped with satisfaction, pushed Gu Lili away, and held out her hand to Gu Qingan, "Take it over now, and we can end this matter in front of the whole village."
