Chapter 75 My Leg is Broken
Gu Xiaoxi supported the old patriarch and waited outside for a while. Only after Uncle Yuntian changed Uncle Yunhai's clothes did Gu Xiaoxi go in.
After entering, she found an excuse to ask everyone else to leave the room, then clicked on Uncle Yunhai's sleep space, took out the instrument in the space to scan Uncle Yunhai's legs, and quickly found out where the problem was?
After putting away the instruments, she woke up Uncle Yuntian and hit his leg with a small hammer.
"Uncle Yunhai, does it hurt?" she asked.
Gu Yunhai said with a look of despair: "Girl, don't waste your time. My leg is already broken."
Gu Xiaoxi listened to Uncle Yunhai's desperate tone and consoled him with a smile on her face, "Uncle Yunhai, you have no feeling in your leg because the person who set your bones didn't do a good job. If you remove them and reattach them, there's still hope. But the process will be very painful, and I'm worried you won't be able to handle it."
"Really, is there really hope?" Gu Yunhai looked at Gu Xiaoxi expectantly.
Gu Xiaoxi didn't dare to guarantee it 100%, so she could only say, "But, I have to tell you the truth, this is only a 50% chance, but it's a gamble, and there's a chance of losing."
Gu Yunhai originally thought that there was only a 10% to 20% chance, but he didn't expect Xiaoxi to say that there was a 50% chance.
He seemed to see hope all of a sudden, and there was light in his eyes.
Seeing Uncle Yunhai's gaze, Gu Xiaoxi said with satisfaction, "Uncle Yunhai, no matter what the disease is, you must first have confidence in yourself. If you don't have confidence in yourself, nothing will be accomplished."
After hearing Xiaoxi's words, Gu Yunhai nodded heavily.
Then he asked, "Well, what should I prepare in advance?"
"It's such nice weather today. You have to go out and bask in the sun and get yourself in better shape before I can help you." Gu Xiaoxi felt that Uncle Yunhai was a little weak and needed some conditioning.
Then she continued, "Also, I'll bring you some medicine. Take it for half a month to recuperate your body. After you finish taking this medicine, I'll see when you can do the surgery."
"Okay, I'll listen to you. No matter if it succeeds or not, I'm going to try." Gu Yunhai clenched his fists tightly.
Seeing that Uncle Yunhai had listened to what she said, Gu Xiaoxi went over and opened the door.
Outside the door, the old patriarch and Gu Yuntian were waiting anxiously.
Seeing the door open, the three of them went to greet it.
Gu Xiaoxi knew that they were anxious, so she told them the general situation after coming out.
"Fifty percent chance!" The old patriarch couldn't even imagine that Yun Hai's leg still had a fifty percent chance of survival. He looked at Xiao Xi and asked in a trembling voice, "Is this true?"
"Really!" Gu Xiaoxi nodded affirmatively.
Seeing the smiles on the three people's faces, she gave them some more instructions and then went up the mountain with the backpack on her back.
She needed to go to the mountains to dig some herbs and sell them for silver. Although there was a payment window, she still needed money to pay.
Thinking of this, she quickened her pace up the mountain.
Although there are no chestnut trees in the forests I visited before, there are still many medicinal herbs. There are many places that I haven't looked at carefully.
She went up the mountain and came to this forest, looking for medicinal herbs and hunting along the way.
She was so busy that she came down the mountain when it was dark. After coming down the mountain, she did not go home immediately. Instead, she went to the mountain where there were bamboo shoots and dug a basket of bamboo shoots before returning.
The thorn balls in the space have piled up into small hills in the front and back yards. At the current rate, it will be no problem to sell them in a month.
She has one month to come up with other ways to make money.
Gu Feng had been waiting in the yard for a long time. When he heard the knock on the door, he followed his third uncle's instructions and looked through the crack to see if it was his mother who could open the door.
When he saw that it was his mother who had returned, he opened the gate of the yard and waited for her to come in and put down the backpack. He handed the prepared backpack to her and then closed the gate of the yard.
Gu Xiaoxi was very happy to see Afeng taking over his sister-in-law's job.
He ran back and forth several times to carry the thorn ball back, then went back to the kitchen in front to eat.
While eating, Xue talked about what happened when she went to set up the stall today.
"Mom, that Mrs. Mo is so shameless. It really makes me angry." There were some things she couldn't say in front of the child.
Mrs. Chai understood what her eldest daughter-in-law meant and frowned, saying, "I never thought this ungrateful person would become more and more capable."
"Mom, we don't care what they do. We just need to sell our chestnuts every day." Gu Xiaoxi felt that there was no need to pay attention to that kind of person. As long as she didn't provoke him, they could live in peace for the time being.
After listening to this, Mrs. Xue said nothing more. She waited until the children had eaten and asked Afeng to take them to the yard to play. Then she lowered her voice and told them what happened today in detail.
"That shameless person, just to do that little bit of business, actually seduced those wealthy bosses in public."
"Hey, this, isn't the second brother there? Why doesn't he say anything?" Chai became even angrier after hearing this.
"The second brother is a coward. He's almost cuckolded, but he's still sitting there with his head down and not saying a word." Gu Dongming was also very angry. If the family had not been divided, he really wanted to go up and give his second brother two big slaps.
After hearing this, Gu Xiaoxi said calmly, "She probably despises my second brother for not having money, so she's just looking for another one.
However, this is also good. Second Brother has never given up. If she reveals her true colors as soon as possible, it won't be a bad thing to dump Second Brother. It's better than her growing wings and treating Second Brother like an animal. "
She had anticipated this a long time ago, so she wasn't surprised at all.
Hearing this, everyone looked at Gu Xiaoxi and found that Gu Xiaoxi's brain was really getting better and better.
Gu He nodded and said, "Xiaoxi is right. The sooner that woman reveals her true colors, the sooner the second brother will give up. It's better than having to take the blame for her in the future."
After talking it out, the anger of Gu Dongming and his wife and Gu Nanming finally subsided a lot.
"I looked at the chestnut trees on the mountain. We can only do this business for a month at most. It's not cost-effective to buy chestnuts.
I won't be setting up a stall with you guys these days. I'm going to go wander around the mountains and look for some valuable medicinal herbs. Besides, I'm going to think about other businesses." Gu Xiaoxi told her family about her plans, hoping they would understand.
After hearing this, Xue was the first to express her opinion: "Sister, just go and do your thing, and leave the housework to us."
"Yes, go and do your thing. I can fry chestnuts anyway." Gu Nanming echoed.
Gu Xiaoxi didn't expect that her sister-in-law would be the first to agree. It seems that as long as she can get money, her sister-in-law is still smart.
Chai and Gu He nodded in agreement, both very much supporting their daughter.
Gu He asked with concern, "By the way, you showed your uncle Yunhai your legs today. How was it?"
