In high spirits, Gu Beiyi took Rong Sheng to find Rong Hua and his two brothers as promised.
They are currently staying at their great-aunt's house. Their great-aunt has a small house in the county town, which is only big enough for two people. If there is more than one person, it will feel crowded.
But at this moment, the three brothers sat silently in the main room, none of them speaking.
The moment Gu Beiyi brought Rong Sheng to the courtyard, he noticed that the three brothers looked strange, and he had a feeling that... something serious had happened.
Rong Sheng's heart sank immediately, and his feet felt as if they were wearing heavy shackles, unable to move an inch.
Just then, the eldest brother, Ronghua, spoke up: "Second brother, it's getting late. You've been in the county town for quite a while today. Hurry home and tell Mother and Shengbao so they won't worry! As for Father's matter... don't tell them yet, so they won't worry even more!"
Rong Zheng's cold face was full of anger: "Big brother, are we not going to get Dad back from the Qian family? The Qian family's attitude is so rude and disgusting, I really can't stand it. Let me rush into the Qian family, beat them all up, and then take Dad with me!"
“No! Using force is the worst way to resolve this. The Qian family has many members and influence, and they are connected to the county magistrate. If you rashly go to demand their release or even beat them, it will only give the Qian family something to talk about. If something really happens to the Qian family, we are just ordinary people with little influence. How do you think we can protect you and Father at the same time?” Rong Hua did not approve of reckless and thoughtless behavior.
"But can we brothers just stand by and watch Dad be detained by the Qian family?" Rong Zheng was unwilling. If they did nothing, Dad would get into trouble, and the Qian family would become even more arrogant!
Rong Hua snorted coldly: "Second brother, don't worry, your elder brother will not abandon Father! Aren't the Qian family very arrogant? I've thought about it carefully just now. The Qian family is arrogant because they have the county magistrate backing them up, but our Rong family doesn't have that advantage and has no connections."
Can't we brothers think of something? Second brother, you go back and reassure Mother and Shengbao. Third brother and I will try to build connections and network! The most famous lawyer in our county is upright and incorruptible. I'll go visit him first thing tomorrow morning! Third brother, you go and find the county magistrate!
If I remember correctly, this magistrate is Second Aunt's son-in-law! He's also a relative of our Rong family. Although our family hasn't been in contact with Second Aunt's family for many years, I believe Second Aunt would never stand idly by while our father is in trouble! If Second Aunt really doesn't want to get involved, then we'll…”
A cold glint flashed in Rong Hua's dark eyes: "Then let people spread the scandal between the Qian family and the county magistrate throughout the city!"
When I went to the Qian family to look for someone earlier, my third brother accidentally overheard a secret. With this secret, I believe the Qian family won't be able to act so arrogantly.
Even the county magistrate's backyard... is going to catch fire!
He doesn't know if his future will be ruined, but it will definitely become a topic of conversation among the people.
Rong Mu nodded solemnly: "Second Brother, I agree with Eldest Brother!"
Rong Zheng was still unwilling to accept this, feeling that the Qian family had gotten off too easy and that he should give them a good beating to quell his anger.
But since his eldest and third brothers had both said so, Rong Zheng naturally wouldn't refute them. He was self-aware enough to know that his brain wasn't as sharp as his eldest and third brothers', so he obediently listened to them.
Standing in the courtyard, Rong Zheng was completely bewildered by the conversation between the three brothers.
My father came to the county town to treat patients, but somehow he discovered something was wrong.
The Qian family? The county magistrate?
What did they do to their father? What did they want their father to do?
Thinking of this, Rong Sheng narrowed her dark eyes, gently tugged at Gu Beiyi's clothes, and asked Gu Beiyi to lead her away first.
As Rong Sheng wished, Gu Beiyi embraced her slender waist and left the small courtyard as quickly as a fleeting shadow, arriving at a quiet alley.
Rong Sheng raised her head and stared intently at Gu Beiyi: "Gu Sanniu, do you know the relationship between the Qian family and the county magistrate? Do you also know where the Qian family is? Tell me quickly, and then take me to see the Qian family!"
Gu Beiyi smiled through his dark eyes, but with his arms crossed, he calmly looked at her: "I can tell you about the relationship between the Qian family and the county magistrate, and I can take you to the Qian family, but there's a condition!"
"Conditions?" Rong Sheng was somewhat taken aback, but seeing Gu Beiyi's calm demeanor, she knew he wasn't joking and was really making demands of her: "System, is the Qian family far from here? Will it be a lot of trouble for me to go to the Qian family?"
System: "Answering the host's question requires one Medical Ethics Point!"
"Get lost!" Shameless! Trying to take advantage of my misfortune again, even though you know she has no medical ethics whatsoever!
The system was unreliable, and she wasn't familiar with Wenhong County. Going to the Qian family alone might cause trouble, so Rong Sheng looked at Gu Beiyi expectantly: "Gu Sanniu, you can't take advantage of my misfortune like this. You know I need your help right now."
Of course I know!
Because they know this, they are negotiating terms.
"If you agree to my terms, I'll do whatever you want to me tonight," Gu Beiyi said indulgently.
Rong Sheng's face lit up with surprise: "Really? You keep your word?"
A gentleman's word is as good as his bond!
"So what are your conditions?"
"You already promised to do my laundry and cook for me, but only at night! Now I want to add another condition: you have to come see me during the day too! You know I just came back from the battlefield and know very little about farming. I need you to teach me how to farm and grow vegetables..."
"This... Gu Sanniu, it's not that I don't want to agree, but my parents and brothers won't agree! Think about it, you're the jinx of our Zhonggui Village, you've killed many people, even though you tell me you're not, and those people didn't die because of you."
But my family doesn't believe me, and neither do the villagers. If I get too close to you, no one in the village will come to me for treatment! "Then I can't accumulate medical ethics points to be with you."
"You don't need to worry about this, I'll handle it!"
"Can you solve this? If you can solve this, then I'll agree!" Rong Sheng said seriously.
Gu Beiyi felt a sense of relief. His Shengsheng was so naive. She fell for his tricks with just a few simple words.
Yes, at this moment, Sheng Sheng's mind is entirely focused on practicing medicine and accumulating medical ethics points. Only in this way can she be with him.
Therefore, she didn't want her bad reputation to prevent her from accumulating medical ethics points, which would mean she would have to take many detours to be with her.
But you won't be so easily fooled anymore!
Gu Beiyi placed his large hand on Rong Sheng's waist and led her through the streets of the county town like a dark elf. Soon they arrived at the Qian family's gate. "That family is the Qian family. Your father is inside."
Rong Sheng stared intently at the Qian family's gate with his dark eyes. The vermilion gate and high walls of the compound looked impressive, but who knew how many sordid things happened inside such a wealthy family? It was just a nice-looking facade!
However~
