Chapter 127 True and False
"When I came down from the mountain, I heard people say it was very lively here. What are you doing?" asked the little doctor.
Gu Leyou explained the whole cause and effect to the young doctor.
As a result, people were furious when they heard it.
"I wanted to talk to you about your brother's problem today, but you guys said he was possessed by evil spirits."
"It's true that each person has his own reasons. What is the reason? Is it not possessed by evil spirits?" Gu Leyou asked.
"If he was possessed by an evil spirit, that would be fine. He's just sick. If you do this, his condition will get worse."
But wasn't her brother awake?
Could it be that the Taoist priest is a liar?
If he is a liar, then his skills are really superb and he does it very well.
As a result, some people were not happy about it. They refuted the little doctor's words for the first time. They originally wanted to have a child with superb medical skills who would be respected by them in the village. But this time they saw the Taoist's superb medical skills with their own eyes, so how could it be a lie?
The little doctor said to them: "If he really had such superb skills, he would have become an immortal long ago. Why would he stay in that Taoist temple?"
Gu Laoer also had a face full of confusion.
"Little miracle doctor, we all celebrate you, but please don't talk nonsense. Is what you said true or false? I think that Taoist priest is really capable. He cured my son. Look."
The young doctor stepped forward and took Gu Leshu's pulse. Fortunately, there was no danger and the boy's illness was indeed cured.
But there was a problem. They didn't rewrite it at all, and the Taoist priest said that he was possessed by an evil spirit, so he planned to break the scheme, otherwise more people would be deceived.
Everyone was waiting for the little doctor to give a satisfactory answer.
Since they all wanted to know the truth, he would tell them.
"Then let me tell you a story. Maybe after listening to it you will understand what is going on."
Everyone nodded.
"I still remember a few months ago, when I went up the mountain to collect herbs, I passed by this Taoist temple. Because I was extremely thirsty, I went in to ask for a drink of water, and then I learned of a conspiracy."
"Master, do you think it's really okay for us to lie to people like this? Why don't you tell them the truth? You don't know how to do magic. A large number of people who come to you for treatment are not possessed by evil spirits. Besides, you always succeed by accident. If you weren't so careful, you wouldn't have succeeded that time at all."
"What do you know? If I don't do this, you will starve to death if you follow me. I learned a little bit from a Taoist priest before, so every time I can make money, it's by accident. Otherwise, I will have no money at all."
After the little doctor finished drinking the water, he heard these words.
However, the Taoist priest and his apprentice did not take it seriously at the time. After all, they did not know the young doctor and did not know where he was from. Even if he heard it, they would not think it was a big deal.
The young doctor told the villagers what they said honestly.
After hearing this, some villagers still felt that the young doctor was just jealous of the Taoist priest because his magical powers were greater than his and he could heal more people, so he spread rumors about him.
Although Gu Laoer's family was somewhat grateful to the Taoist priest, they had a close relationship with the young miracle doctor, so they didn't know who to believe this time.
So Gu Laoer's family was in a very difficult situation being caught between these people.
Gu Leyou and his wife were also in a difficult situation. After their brother's incident was over, they planned to go back and take the children away.
After the child returned home, the couple planned to tell the truth to the child.
After all, children know that they are not their children.
Then as long as it is confirmed that the child’s biological father is not in danger, the child should be sent there.
So Gu Leyou asked the child, "Xiaoyao, do you miss your father?"
"Mother, I know what you are going to say. To be honest, I miss him a lot. He is my biological father after all. For my safety, he sent me to such a far place and asked me to follow you. So I can't leave until he confirms with me that you two are okay. If I leave and encounter danger again, who can protect me? After all, I am just a child."
"So you want to live with me for a while, but if you are completely accustomed to living with us, then what should you do if you are not used to it when you go back to your biological father? We have to consider your future. After all, you are a person of noble status, and we can't let you be delayed by us." Gu Leyou said patiently.
In fact, the couple decided to return the child, and they were reluctant to let his biological father go.
But after all, they are other people's children. No matter how well you raise them, you will have to return them to their parents one day. There is a saying that goes, "A short pain is worse than a long one." So, other people's children must be returned to them sooner or later.
"Let's not talk about the child for now, let's talk about your brother first. I think the person who tied the bell should be the one who can untie it. You have to go and have a good talk with him about your brother's problem. You can't go on like this. Although he was cured by accident, your good friend A Yue is a source of worry for your brother. Only when the two of them have resolved this issue can your brother completely return to his life."
"Do you mean that you want me to go find A Yue?" Gu Leyou asked.
"Yes, this matter was caused by you. You have to step up and solve this matter in the most perfect way, so that your brother's worry will be relieved. But you also have to talk to your good friend about this matter. It's best not to tell his parents, otherwise things will get worse."
Gu Leyou understood very well what her husband said. It was indeed like this. If she didn't sort out this matter, her brother might live in a daze all his life. Even if he was really possessed by evil spirits or got sick and someone cured him, there was still a possibility of a relapse.
But she wanted to go see her good friend in two days. If she went tomorrow, after all, the relationship between their two families had just eased. If they found out, the situation would be even worse. Instead of that, it would be better to wait for two days until things were a little calmer, and then it would be better for her to go.
Two days later.
Tang packed a simple bag and prepared to stay at his good friend's in-laws' house for a day or two to talk to her about his brother's affairs.
His son and husband said goodbye to him reluctantly at the door. After all, he didn't know what would happen on the road. Although the two houses were only a few miles apart, he was still a little worried. After all, it would take at least a day and a half to walk from here to his friend's house.
If I don't leave early, I won't be able to get to her house before dark.
When he left the village and came to the entrance, there were a few aunties chatting under a tree and asked her about her.
"Isn't this the daughter of the second son of the Gu family? Where is she going? She is so busy all the time."
He didn't care about the big things hitting him. After all, he couldn't stop walking. He had to rush to A Yue's house without saying much to them, lest they take the things out and go to A Yue's parents to gossip about him.
However, her speed was fast enough that she could reach A Yue's house by the evening of this afternoon if she walked.
I knocked on A Yue's door and it was definitely her who opened the door.
At this time, A Yue was already pregnant.
Gu Leyou was very surprised when he saw her.
"Congratulations, Yue, you're going to be a mother. Can you invite me in to sit down? I have something to discuss with you."
Originally, he wanted to talk to A Yue about his brother, but when the words came to his lips, she had to swallow them and could only talk about other things. A Yue already had a child, so she couldn't get excited. If she knew that her brother was going crazy because of him, he would definitely not be able to bear it. If he had a miscarriage and lost the child, then she would be guilty.
A Yue thought that this good friend came to play with her and didn't think much about it.
Gu Leyou entered A Yue's house, and they sat on the stone bench in the yard. A Yue poured her a cup of tea.
He smiled and said, "Leyou, you haven't been here for a long time. I missed you so much. How come you have time to come here today?"
Gu Leyou forced a smile and said, "I just missed you so much that I came to see you. You are pregnant now, how is your health? Are you feeling unwell?"
Ah Yue stroked her slightly bulging belly with a happy smile on her face, "Everything is fine, except that I feel sleepy sometimes and eat more than before.
My mother-in-law is so nice to me. She prepares delicious food for me in different ways every day. ”
Gu Leyou felt mixed emotions as he listened to A Yue's words. She knew that A Yue was living a happy and stable life now, but she felt very distressed when she thought of her brother's distraught look.
She wanted to talk about her brother several times, but she swallowed the words back when they came to her lips.
The two chatted about family matters, from trivial matters in the village to guessing the gender of the baby in A Yue's belly.
Before I knew it, the sky gradually darkened. A Yue invited Gu Leyou to have dinner at her home, and Gu Leyou did not refuse.
At the dinner table, A Yue's mother-in-law greeted Gu Leyou warmly and picked up a lot of dishes for her. Looking at this warm and harmonious family, Gu Leyou found it increasingly difficult to speak about his brother.
After dinner, A Yue took Gu Leyou to her room, and the two sat on the bed and continued chatting.
"Leyou, you seem to be worried today. Did something happen at home?" A Yue keenly noticed that something was wrong with Gu Leyou and asked with concern.
Gu Leyou hesitated for a moment, but decided to test A Yue's attitude first.
"Ayue, do you still remember my brother Leshu?"
Ah Yue was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Of course I remember, how is he doing recently?"
"He's a good person and studies hard every day. I believe he will achieve great things in the future." Gu Leyou couldn't bear to tell his good friend the truth, so he had to lie.
"That's good. If you have nothing else to do, you can stay here for two more days to keep me company."
How could Gu Leyou stay here for so many days? After all, he came here with a mission, and it seemed that this mission could not be completed. It was estimated that his brother's heart disease could not be cured for a while.
I have to go back early tomorrow morning. If I stay here, my good friend will sooner or later notice my absent-mindedness and I will have to find another lie to her. Telling too many lies is not good after all.
The next day, after breakfast, Gu Leyou walked back with his bag.
She was not stupid either. She had noticed that something was wrong with her good friend a long time ago, so she discussed with her mother-in-law about going back to see what had happened, otherwise she would not have suddenly come to her house.
So she asked her mother-in-law, "Mom, I want to go back to my parents' home. Can you go with me? I am too heavy now and it is not convenient for me."
He and Da Nian had already been married some time ago, so she was already the daughter-in-law of this family.
Originally, the aunt said that if her biological parents were not here, the villagers would gossip about her in the future, but she also knew her parents' personalities and that they had already run away to someone else's home to avoid debt during that time.
So A Yue and Da Nian’s wedding was also held in a very hasty manner.
But it’s good to have help from neighbors.
"You think your best friend is a little strange, right? I noticed it too. He seemed distracted during dinner and seemed to be in a hurry to go home after dinner. Something must have happened at home. If you are worried, I will go back with you to check it out."
"Thank you, mother. Let's go back with Da Nian. Otherwise, if the two of us leave, when Da Nian comes back from work, he will be worried when he sees that we are not at home."
So the three of them, including the baby in her belly, set out on the journey back to A Yue's mother's home.
When the three of them returned to A Yue's parents' home, it was already dark.
But when they arrived at the door, they didn't dare to knock. After hesitating for more than a minute, they still walked towards Gu Leyou's house.
After all, the grudge between him and his parents has not been completely resolved. His parents probably don't want to see him talk anymore. His parents have already told him that they have severed ties with this daughter. As a daughter, A Yue married the fool Da Nian for her own happiness. His parents have severed ties with him, so he can't go back to his parents' home and bring shame to his parents.
At Gu Leyou's home, the three of them were preparing to rest when they suddenly heard a knock on the door. Gu Leyou got up to open the door.
When he saw that it was his good friends and their family of three showing up at his doorstep, he was surprised and delighted.
She had already guessed it in her heart. She thought it must be her good friend who had guessed it. She was absent-minded when she went to his house, so the three of them must have come to find out what was going on.
So Gu Leyou quickly invited the family of three in.
"Ah Yue, Danian and Auntie, please come in. Why are you here so late? Is there anything you want to talk to us about?"
"I haven't been back to Gujia Village for a long time, so I wanted to come and see you, and by the way, I thought you must have something to do when you came to my house to find me, but you left without saying anything, and you seemed absent-minded, which was not right." A Yue explained.
