Chapter 114 I Can’t Leave Again
Lu Yan told them to be prepared and ready for a fight to the death.
No one knows who is outside the door.
When Lu Yan opened the door, he finally felt relieved. It turned out to be the little miracle doctor.
He came to deliver medicine so late at night.
Seeing that they were extremely nervous, the young doctor became a little suspicious.
They had already packed their luggage and planned to leave tomorrow, but now the child has a high fever and they definitely can't leave.
After treating the child, the young doctor explained to them the purpose of his visit and the intentions he knew about.
"I know your identities, and I also know the identity of this child. In fact, I should also explain my identity. In fact, big brother thinks why I came to this village. I came to protect you. It's true that I know medical skills, and I was sent by the prince."
Now everyone in the group understood.
Lu Yan said: "No wonder you showed up in the village not long after my father and I arrived here. But usually you treat those poor people and sometimes you don't even charge them. It seems you are trying to hide your identity."
"Then what is your identity?" Gu Leyou asked.
"I am still a doctor, but I am the doctor assigned to the Third Prince by the Immortal Emperor. I believe the general has long heard that the Third Prince has been weak and sickly since childhood. A royal physician once asserted that the Third Prince would not live past the age of 20. Therefore, in order to prevent those ministers from making random guesses, the Immortal Emperor secretly sent someone to find a doctor, and that person is me."
"But I didn't see you when I went to the Third Prince's mansion. You didn't live there, and I didn't hear the prince mention you."
This question was asked by Nan Qing.
"This is the agreement between the late emperor and I. I prefer freedom and don't like being constrained. So after I cure the prince, I will leave secretly without being discovered. So it's normal that you haven't seen me before."
"Don't lie. I don't believe you. If you were really sent by the prince, he would have tried every means to tell me. But the prince never mentioned your identity or who sent you."
Lu Yan directly put a knife on the young doctor's neck.
"I've already said that I was sent by the prince. If I were sent by someone else, I would have had so many opportunities to kill you, so why didn't I kill you? And that child, I've already seen through the child's identity. Besides, the poison he's in may only be cured by me. If you kill me, there will be no one to cure the child."
The knife in Lu Yan's hand trembled slightly, and his eyes were full of vigilance and suspicion. He stared at the eyes of the young doctor, trying to find any trace of lying in them. However, the young doctor had a calm expression and a determined gaze, and he did not flinch under Lu Yan's scrutiny.
"Although what you said makes some sense, it's hard for me to be completely convinced by words alone." Lu Yan said through gritted teeth, with a hint of unquestionable determination in his voice.
"What Xiaoshen said makes sense. The child's illness still depends on him. We can't kill him. Besides, don't we still have to deal with that matter? The child is sick and can't leave for a while. We can't just hide away. I'm sure that group of people will come again tomorrow."
Lu Yan had no choice but to let the young doctor stay for the time being.
Several people in the family couldn't sleep tonight. In the second half of the night, Gu Leyou wanted to talk to him about Gu Mingyue.
But before she opened her mouth, the other party said, "I don't have that intention towards your sister. Please tell them not to waste their time on me."
"How did you know this, little doctor? I haven't told you yet because I really don't know how to tell you this."
This is how the little doctor explained it to her.
"When I came back this evening, Aunt Li came to my house and told me that their grandson was sick and wanted me to go see him, so I went."
"What happened next?" Gu Leyou asked.
"After I finished treating their grandson, I was about to tell them to take good care of the child, but I heard them cursing your aunt, saying that she was a toad wanting to eat swan flesh, and she didn't even look in the mirror to see what kind of character her daughter had, and she still wanted to marry a little miracle doctor."
"I went up to ask what was going on, and I learned that it was your aunt who wanted me to be your cousin's husband. I have been in this village for so long, so I naturally know what kind of person your cousin is. How could I agree to be their son-in-law?"
Lu Yan said awkwardly at this time, "You and I are sworn brothers, and I was planning to consider your lifelong affairs. If you don't agree to be their son-in-law, then we will be the ones in trouble."
"As a man, I can handle my own lifelong affairs. You don't need to worry about it. I don't understand why people would choose me when I treat their illnesses. Actually, Aunt Li has a daughter, and Uncle Li told me yesterday that he wanted me to be their son-in-law."
"Brother and sister-in-law, please stop talking. Don't scare people. They won't dare to stay in the village. If the child's illness recurs, who will we go to?"
But Gu Leyou began to worry about tomorrow.
The original plan was to leave tonight, as they would definitely not be able to find anyone early tomorrow morning. However, they did not expect that the child would have a high fever tonight, and they would not be able to leave tomorrow and would have to wait until the child recovered.
Sure enough, at dawn, the aunt appeared at the door of the couple's home with Gu Mingyue.
But this time they were lucky because the little miracle doctor did not leave.
Except for the sick child who has not yet recovered, everyone else in the room is doubting the identity of the little miracle doctor.
After all, what was said last night made people feel half-believing and half-doubtful, and there was a certain degree of unreliability.
So they had to wait until the child recovered and then ask the child whether he had seen this person when he lived in the palace. If not, then it meant he was lying.
So this little miracle doctor must either be kept and put to use, or he must be killed.
Perhaps this is the only way to ensure the safety of these people, otherwise there will be more and more troubles.
When the aunt saw the little miracle doctor, the joy on her face was beyond words.
This is their family's future son-in-law and they cannot afford to offend him. If they offend him, their daughter will probably not be able to find such a good man to marry in the future.
So, when the aunt saw the little doctor, she immediately gave her daughter a look.
Gu Mingyue understood what he meant and immediately walked forward to greet the young doctor.
The young doctor had never had a good impression of their family in the first place, so of course he was unwilling when they were eager to develop a relationship with him.
So I immediately declined politely.
"Miss Gu, please don't do this. I can't bear it."
"Look, mother, this little miracle doctor really likes my daughter."
As soon as these words were spoken, the nanny immediately understood.
It seems that this couple didn't handle his affairs clearly.
So she raised her voice and asked, "Did you tell him about what happened yesterday? Did you? Otherwise, why would he be like this? It must be because you didn't tell him. You two black-hearted couple, you changed your mind after you agreed to something. You are simply a black-hearted family that doesn't keep its word."
“…”
"Aunt, we promised to help but we didn't say that we would definitely do it. If they don't agree, that's their business. We can't force them to agree with a knife. Wouldn't that make us criminals?"
"You are such a sharp-tongued girl, I know I can't win over you. Anyway, I don't care. You must get this done for me, and then I will look up to you. Otherwise, I will come here every day to make trouble, and it will never stop."
"Aunt, you said your family is not a royal family, why do you have to fall in love with this little genius doctor? He has no plans to get married at all."
"Then if I marry my daughter to him, won't he have someone to marry?"
Of course Gu Leyou knew what his aunt was planning.
This old woman was simply attracted by the young doctor's medical skills, hoping that he would be able to earn more money in the future, which would be more convenient for their family.
So they were not considering their daughter's lifelong happiness at all, they just wanted to have more money, even the old lady thought so.
Therefore, Gu Leyou and his wife felt that they could not push the young doctor into the fire pit. Besides, the young doctor himself did not want to do so.
Seeing that the two did not respond, the aunt thought that they must not have the energy to help her anymore, so she threatened: "If you don't help, I will go to your parents to settle the score."
Gu Leyou snorted coldly and said directly: "If you dare to go to my parents, I believe Mingyue will never get married and will have to stay at home forever."
Gu Mingyue became anxious when she heard this, and almost tore Gu Leyou apart. Fortunately, Lu Yan stood in front of her.
"Aunt, please don't be so shameless. We have tried our best to persuade them, but they don't agree. We can't force them to agree with a knife. Besides, what kind of person is your best friend? You know her best. Her reputation has been ruined for a long time."
Nan Qing really couldn't stand it anymore, it was so noisy, and the neighbors would come soon.
She asked the little doctor, "Why are you still standing here? Hurry up and think of a solution. This matter is related to you. Hurry up and find a way to solve it. Even if you just agree to it first and then run away, they won't be able to find you even if they want to."
"But I never lie. I'm afraid that if I lie, I'll get nervous and people will see through me right away."
"Then let's find whoever they are most afraid of, otherwise this matter will never end. We have to set off again after the child recovers from his illness, and we can't delay it because of your matter."
The little doctor snorted coldly and immediately said, "What nonsense are you talking about? What do you mean my business? They are obviously looking for trouble with me. I don't even look down on other people's best friends, okay? As a girl, can you please stop talking like that? It's too harsh."
Just then, Aunt Li passed by their house and guessed what was going on, so she hurried towards the village chief's house.
Obviously he still has to go find the village chief and seek justice. He can't let such a good young man like Xiaoshen be taken away by Boss Gu's family. If that happens, what will happen to their daughter?
Just as several people were arguing, the village chief came in a hurry.
In fact, to be honest, even the village chief had his eyes on the little miracle doctor and wanted to leave him to his daughter, so how could he let someone else get there first?
"Just shut up, you guys. You're the most troubled family in this village. You're a matchmaker, why don't you just find a marriage for your daughter? Why do you have to occupy someone else's house? He's a good young man."
As a result, Yang felt particularly aggrieved.
She said: "This little miracle doctor has frequent contacts with their family. He must have been taught by their family and learned from their younger brother. He said he doesn't plan to get married now. So when does the little miracle doctor plan to get married? Does he have to wait until he is 70 or 80 years old? By that time, some people will have gone underground. Will he still need to get married?"
The young doctor quickly stepped forward, bowed, and then explained to the village chief.
"Village chief, that's not what I meant. I meant that since I don't have a girl I like right now, I might as well plan to get married. When I have a girl I like, I will get married."
When my aunt heard this, she immediately became unhappy.
"Don't be so high-sounding. You just want to learn from Gu Leyou's brother Gu Leshu. Didn't he say the same thing to that girl from the Shi family before?"
"He is him and I am me. We are not twins, nor are we exactly the same. We have different ideas. Besides, he wants to pass the imperial examination, so he doesn't want to get married. I don't have any girl I like, so I have no plans to get married." The little doctor explained.
After listening to the little doctor's explanation, the village chief nodded slightly and his expression eased a little.
However, he still looked at Yang with a bit of reproach in his eyes: "Yang, don't be so unreasonable. The little genius doctor knows his lifelong affairs well, how can he let you arrange it like this."
Yang was still adamant, with her hands on her hips and her face flushed red. "Village chief, you are being biased. What's wrong with my Mingyue that she is not worthy of this little genius doctor? The couple are deliberately making trouble and don't want my daughter to have an easy life."
Gu Leyou was so angry that she was shaking all over. Just as she was about to open her mouth to refute, Lu Zhan stopped her with his hand, stepped forward and said to the village chief: "Village chief, you also know that we are just friends with the little doctor. We really can't make the decision about his affairs. Yang insisted on blaming us for this matter. It's really unfair."
Seeing that the family was arguing over such a small matter, the village chief stepped in to ease the situation.
"Ms. Yang, as a matchmaker, you should arrange your own child's marriage yourself. Don't make things difficult for him. Don't be unreasonable. The little doctor is a doctor. He has saved so many lives and solved so many problems for so many people. You know better than I do that he deserves a better girl. It's up to him to decide which girl he is with. We shouldn't get involved."
"But my Mingyue..."
Before Yang could finish her words, she was interrupted by the village chief.
"Stop talking, go back quickly, and don't make me angry."
In this way, Yang was driven away by the village chief.
