Chapter 84 Caught Red-Handed



"Chengyuan, that's Third Uncle, what should we do?"

He walked this way.

They must have seen me.

Yu Pingan spoke anxiously to his younger brother in a very low voice.

His eyes were filled with panic, and fine beads of sweat even appeared on his forehead.

Yu Chengyuan also saw his third uncle, Yu Sanzhu, but there was no sign of panic on his face. He calmly said, "Brother, don't be nervous. It's okay that Yu Sanzhu is here."

I'll handle him later, don't worry.

If he asks you, just tell him that your leg was cured by an old traditional Chinese medicine doctor recommended by my mother-in-law using acupuncture.

"Will Uncle believe me if I say this?"

He's such a shrewd person.

Yu Ping'an looked incredulous, his brows furrowed tightly. "How can someone heal their leg in just two days? This is too outrageous. Uncle San will definitely not believe it."

Or let's find another reason!

"Whether he believes it or not is not important, you just need to say it like this."

Yu Chengyuan calmly gave his instructions.

"Okay, I understand."

Yu Pingan nodded helplessly, thinking that listening to his younger brother was definitely the right thing to do.

"Brother, let's keep going and act like nothing happened."

After Yu Chengyuan finished speaking, he strode forward and continued walking. Yu Pingan quickly followed behind, looking like a chick following closely behind its mother hen.

Yu Sanzhu rubbed his eyes. "Am I seeing things?"

Aren't those the two sons of the eldest son in front of us?

Yu Chengyuan even raised his voice to say, "Brother, the weather is nice today, and we have a good harvest. We'll have fish for lunch today."

I'll show you my skills again today and make you a spicy and sour fish fillet dish.

Yu Pingan quickly chimed in, "Great! Great!"

Upon hearing the two voices, Yu Sanzhu's doubts deepened. He quickly took a few steps and finally saw the two of them clearly.

He immediately blocked their path, widened his eyes, and said, "Oh ho, it really is you two!"

Ping An, what's wrong with your leg?

Yu Chengyuan spoke first: "Yu Sanzhu, what a coincidence!"

Isn't it strange that my older brother's leg healed so quickly?

Back then, you disliked my eldest brother because his leg was crippled, so you desperately wanted to separate the family, fearing that my eldest brother would be a burden to you.

You probably didn't expect my brother's leg to heal so quickly, did you?

What's this called?

This is called "evil begets evil, and good begets good."

My older brother is a good person, so God was just playing a joke on him.

Now my older brother's leg is healed, and he's a normal, healthy person again.

"Yu Chengyuan, you little rascal, who are you trying to fool?"

Your brother's leg was injured so badly back then, how could it have healed in just two days?

Even if Hua Tuo were alive today, he wouldn't have this medical skill, would he?

Are you lying to us?

Yu Sanzhu's mind raced, feeling that something was amiss, and he couldn't help but think that they had been tricked.

Unexpectedly, the eldest son's family members, who seemed honest, were actually ruthless and cunning.

I'll have to go back and tell my mother about this later.

"Yu Sanzhu, don't talk nonsense. Even if what you say is true, so what?"

Now that we've separated, there's no point in saying anything more.

Besides, my brother's leg was cured thanks to the old traditional Chinese medicine doctor introduced by my mother-in-law.

That medical skill was absolutely amazing! After just a few needles, my brother's leg was completely healed!

Yu Chengyuan said without blushing or panting.

Yu Sanzhu looked on with suspicion: "Is it really that miraculous?"

He didn't actually believe it.

Yu Chengyuan patted his chest and assured him, "Yu Sanzhu, would I lie to you?"

If you don't believe me, ask my older brother.

Besides, why would I need to lie to you?

Don't you realize that my mother-in-law is the head of surgery at the county hospital?

He knows a lot of doctors.

Yu Pingan nodded quickly: "Third Uncle, it's true, that old Chinese medicine doctor is really amazing."

Yu Sanzhu scratched his head, suppressing his doubts: "Alright, then you guys are lucky."

However, Yu Sanzhu always felt there was something strange about this matter.

After saying that, he shook his head and left.

He didn't dare ask too many questions, afraid that this little brat would reveal his secrets, and then he would be in trouble.

If his wife finds out, she'll probably fight him to the death.

And then there's his second brother, who usually seems like a good-for-nothing, only knowing how to listen to his mother.

But it is precisely these kinds of people who can be truly frightening when they lose their temper.

So he chose to turn around.

Watching Yu Sanzhu's departing figure, Yu Pingan breathed a sigh of relief: "Brother, thank goodness for you, otherwise I really wouldn't know how to deal with Uncle San."

Yu Chengyuan smiled smugly: "Brother, what's the big deal? It doesn't really matter if he knows the truth."

Anyway, there's nothing he can do to us. Can he possibly get the money back?

That's impossible. I won't let him do it.

"Chengyuan, do you think Third Uncle really believes us?"

Yu Pingan suddenly felt that his third uncle was acting differently this time, and he seemed a little afraid of his younger brother.

"Brother, it doesn't matter whether he believes it or not?"

Didn't I just say that?

The important thing is that he doesn't cause trouble; who cares what he's thinking?

Your leg is healed. This secret can't be kept forever; they'll find out sooner or later.

You can't stay in your room all day long, that would suffocate you.

Since he's already seen it, we might as well let him spread the news.

"But I'm a little worried about Grandma..."

What if things escalate into a commotion?

"What's there to be afraid of? We'll deal with whatever comes our way. We've already separated, so there's nothing to be afraid of."

She's not our grandmother anymore. Such a biased and wicked grandmother doesn't deserve to be my grandmother at all.

Brother, don't worry too much. It's getting late, let's hurry back and make lunch!

"My eldest uncle and second uncle will definitely have to rush back after lunch."

Yu Chengyuan patted his elder brother on the shoulder and said with a smile.

"Okay, let's go back quickly!"

Yu Pingan nodded; he could tell that his younger brother probably hated their grandmother.

The two brothers continued walking forward, chatting and laughing. Little did they know that after walking for a while, Yu Sanzhu turned back, looked at their backs, and muttered to himself, "This matter is not so simple. I need to go back and discuss it with my wife."
