Chapter 115 Postponed
Yang was driven away by the village chief, but he was so unwilling to accept it that he went back and told the old lady about it with exaggeration.
The old lady got furious when she heard this.
He has been eating and using the old family's money for years. This time, the old family's daughter wants to find a satisfactory son-in-law, but the village chief's family is still trying to stop her.
Then, as an old lady, she would have to step in and take care of this matter, and not let others mess up their family's good fortune.
He rushed to the village chief's home. As soon as the village chief arrived home, he heard a hurried knock on the door and hurried to open it.
When he opened the door, he saw that it was the old lady of the Gu family, standing at the door with a gloomy face. He knew that the situation was not good. He was also afraid of this old sister-in-law. This old sister-in-law was an old woman that everyone in the surrounding villages was afraid of.
Seeing her standing at the door, I had no choice but to welcome her in.
In fact, the village chief came back to talk to his wife about the little miracle doctor. He originally wanted his wife to talk to the little miracle doctor and marry his daughter to him. In this way, their daughter's lifelong event would be solved. But now that the old lady is here, he is afraid that things may not be going well. She must have come for her granddaughter.
As expected, the old lady questioned as soon as she entered the yard: "Brother, what has the matter between my granddaughter and the little doctor got to do with you? Why did you insist on intervening? Now the little doctor doesn't like my granddaughter. Now my granddaughter can't get married. You are so happy, right?"
The village chief was not afraid at this time for the sake of his daughter's affairs, and directly retorted: "Old sister-in-law, what you said is wrong. It is the little doctor who looks down on your granddaughter and we don't care about anything. He doesn't care if we don't care, and he doesn't care if we care."
"You also know that my eldest daughter-in-law is a matchmaker. She finally found a young man she liked, but you still wanted to get involved. You just want to find a satisfactory son-in-law for your ugly daughter. But have you ever thought that the other party doesn't like your daughter? After all, who would marry an ugly girl?"
When the village chief's wife heard this, she immediately became anxious and clenched her fists, ready to fight with the old lady.
But before the fight, he still scolded the old lady.
"You old woman, what are you saying? It's so harsh when it comes out of your mouth. What's wrong with my daughter? My daughter is hardworking, better than your granddaughter. Not only has her reputation been ruined, but now there are no people who come to propose marriage. That's why you set your sights on that young man."
"That's better than your daughter. I'm afraid your daughter can only marry someone who doesn't work for the skin care team. Although my granddaughter has a bad reputation, she has a good face. Although she can't marry into a wealthy family, at least the family she marries can't be bad."
When the village chief's wife heard this, she immediately glared at the village chief.
"You are a dead man. You are indifferent to what others say about your daughter. Let me tell you, if your daughter can't get married, I will settle the score with you."
The village chief immediately ordered them to leave.
"Sister-in-law, I celebrate that you are older than me, but you should not refuse my toast. My daughter is my own daughter no matter what. I waited for her for 10 months before giving birth to her. If you let me hear you slander my daughter like this again next time, I will not be polite to you."
The old lady of the Gu family snorted coldly and said, "Let's wait and see whose daughter the little miracle doctor will marry in the end." Then she left.
The young doctor stayed at Gu Leyou's house and was very irritable these days. Why did the girls in the village like him instead of others?
What's so good about him? Isn't he just a little bit of medical skill?
Gu Leyou saw what was on his mind.
He sat down and comforted him, "Why don't you come with us when we leave in a few days? No matter what your purpose is, as long as we are together, we can rest assured that you will be safe. It's not good for you to stay with those unmarried girls in the village, as their families are always eyeing you covetously."
"Then I'll tell them that I already have a wife, but she ran away because she couldn't get used to the hard life, and I've been waiting for her to come back. This reason is fine, and they should be able to fool her easily."
Gu Leyou shook his head and explained.
"If they were easy to fool, there would be no such people in the world. They are not easy to fool. Even though they have been trapped in this village and have never been to far places, they think the farthest place is only the distance between the town and this village. But after all, they have lived to such an old age and are very smart people."
"That's not okay, so what should I do? I can't really marry your sister, what would that mean? I don't like her. Although ordinary people don't care about marrying someone of equal status, they still have to be happy."
"I know you don't like it, but you can only perfunctorily say so. After all, there are still many girls in our village who are not as good as Xu's. Who can not like a young man like you who has such good conditions?"
"Sister-in-law, I still think what I just said is easier to believe. How about I go to the village chief and explain this matter to him? I believe that as the head of the village, he will be able to do justice for me."
"Then go ahead."
In this way, with the encouragement of Gu Leyou, the little doctor went to the village chief's house.
The young doctor came to the village chief's house. As soon as he reached the door, he heard a fierce quarrel between the village chief and his wife in the house.
He hesitated for a moment, then raised his hand and knocked on the door.
The village chief opened the door with an angry look on his face, and was slightly stunned when he saw that it was the little miracle doctor. "Little miracle doctor, why are you here?" The village chief's tone was still filled with anger.
The little doctor smiled politely and said, "Village Chief, I came to tell you something."
As he said this, he looked into the room and saw the village head's wife sitting on a chair, wiping her tears angrily.
The village chief let the little doctor in. He didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "Village chief, I heard that there are some misunderstandings in the village about me and the girls. In fact, I already have a fiancée in my hometown, but she is not in good health, so I came out to find some herbs to treat her illness. I really don't have any other thoughts about the girls in the village, and I hope the village chief can help me explain it to everyone."
After hearing this, the village chief frowned even more. He was already worried about his daughter's affairs, and the little doctor's words made him feel even worse.
"Little doctor, this is not an easy thing for you to do. The girls in the village are all attracted to you. I'm afraid they won't be able to accept what you said for a while."
At this time, the village chief's wife suddenly shouted: "You have no conscience, can't you think about our daughter! Look at you, all you do all day long is being the village chief, do you care about your daughter's lifelong affairs?" As she said that, she started crying again.
The village chief was also a little upset by his wife's disturbance. He said to the little doctor, "Little doctor, you look at this matter. Why don't you go back first and let me discuss it with the villagers."
Seeing this, the young doctor didn't know what to say, so he had to get up and leave.
After he left the village chief's house, he was secretly worried, wondering when this matter would be resolved.
After returning to Gu Leyou's home, the little doctor told Gu Leyou what happened at the village chief's house.
Gu Leyou sighed and said, "It seems that this matter still needs to be considered in the long run, but don't worry, there will always be a way."
At this moment, Aunt Li ran in in a panic, "Oh no, the old lady of the Gu family and the village head's wife are fighting!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Leyou and the young doctor immediately followed Aunt Li and ran to the center of the village. I saw a group of people gathered there. The village head's wife and the old lady of the Gu family were wrestling with each other. Their hair was messy and there were scratches on their faces. People around them tried to stop the fight, but neither of them was willing to let go.
The young doctor hurried forward and pulled the two men apart using his own strength. "Stop fighting, let's talk it over nicely!" the young doctor shouted.
The village chief also rushed over at this time, and felt distressed when he saw his wife's appearance. "What are you doing! What a disgrace!" the village chief roared.
The old lady of the Gu family was not to be outdone, "She was the first to start! She even scolded me!"
The village head's wife pointed at the old lady and said, "You still say my daughter is ugly, how can I not be angry with you!"
The scene was in chaos for a moment. The young doctor and Gu Leyou stood aside, looking at the chaotic scene, and both felt a headache.
The young doctor secretly thought to himself that this matter must be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise the village would be in chaos.
Gu Leyou was thinking about how to make everyone calm down and stop arguing over their family affairs.
Just then Nan Qing ran over and shouted to the little doctor, "Brother-in-law, my sister has sent me a letter."
Nan Qing’s words didn’t matter, but when everyone reacted, they were all shocked.
They all looked at the two men.
The village chief asked directly, "You all have problems. Isn't this girl Gu Yatou, a relative of your husband's family? Why does she call you brother-in-law? What's going on?"
The villagers watching the excitement around them also said, "Strange, it's really strange, there are problems with the identities of all of you."
Gu Leyou felt a little panicked.
If the village chief noticed something and forced them to stay and not let them leave, they would definitely not be able to return to the capital.
At this time, Nan Qing explained, "We are distant relatives, so we don't usually visit each other. Today, I received a letter from my cousin and learned that the little doctor is my brother-in-law and my cousin is his fiancée. She is just in poor health, so I, the brother-in-law, came out to find medicine for her. I hope my sister gets better soon so that they can be together."
Although this statement is exactly the same as what the young doctor said, there are still some problems.
If they are all relatives, why do they all appear in this village, and what a coincidence.
Just when he said he wanted to introduce a girl to the young doctor, his fiancée wrote a letter to him. This is definitely a problem, and a big one.
It seems that one of them is lying.
The village chief was just about to find out what happened when a kind-hearted aunt from their family came running over.
"Why are you two still meddling in other people's business? Go home and see your daughter. She's sick. I think she has epilepsy. The little doctor is here. Go quickly, or she might die."
So a large group of people went to the village chief's house.
The village chief's daughter was lying on the ground twitching.
A kind-hearted auntie quickly ran into the kitchen and took a pair of chopsticks for the child to bite. Otherwise, if the child bit his tongue, he might be cured. The village chief’s wife was shocked when she saw this scene. This girl was usually in good health, so how could she suddenly fall ill?
The young doctor hurried forward to take the patient's pulse. The patient was weak and could faint if he was not careful.
This time it's over.
What is going on? Xiaoshengzi thought that the girl looked strong and healthy, so this reason was impossible.
Could it be related to me?
It seems that all the unmarried girls in this village are related to him.
It seems that I will have to stay in my thatched hut in the mountains from now on and stop wandering around in this village.
If he continued to wander around, he would surely get into bigger troubles, because all the unmarried girls in the village were eyeing him eagerly, hoping to become his wife.
If I am not careful, I will offend this group of people. Otherwise, my purpose of being here is not simple and I can't stay here any longer.
They treated her for a long time and finally pulled the girl back from the brink of death. However, the girl was still very weak and any carelessness would cost her life.
…
Three days later, they packed their luggage. The child's illness was almost cured, and they also planned to set off for the capital. They could not delay any longer. However, something unexpected happened that day. After returning home, the village chief thought carefully and realized that except for Gu girl's identity, the identities of the other people were very suspicious.
When I arrived at their door, the family had just opened the door and walked out, everyone was carrying a bag. I immediately understood what was going on.
He immediately frowned and questioned several people.
"You little idiots, are you trying to run away? I haven't even asked you guys all the questions yet, how can you leave? Go back and I'll have a good talk with you."
Everyone thought.
It’s over, it’s completely over this time. The village chief is angry and they can’t leave. They will probably be delayed for a few more days.
After everyone entered the house, the village chief looked at them and immediately asked, "You are carrying your bags. Do you want to leave the village and never come back? Do you think we suspect you and want to run away because you can't stay any longer?"
Gu Leyou quickly explained to the village chief, "Village chief, we are sending this girl back. She has stayed with us for a few days. We want to go back and see if she has any other relatives. After all, we are distant relatives and it is inconvenient for her to live with us. We want to go back and help her find out if any of her closest relatives are still alive. If we hand it over to her closest relatives, we will feel at ease."
Gu Leyou's words were very convincing and he spoke in a very serious and earnest manner.
The village chief still had some doubts and immediately asked a few people.
"If you really are going back to visit relatives, there must be something else going on. You must tell the truth."
Several people nodded together.
