Rong Dong'an narrowed his eyes. "Shengbao, you know that Gu Sanniu has a bad reputation as a jinx, right? You also know that several people have died in the village, and they all have something to do with Gu Sanniu, right? Also, the Gu family is very troublesome, especially Du Shi. That woman is very vicious. If we keep Gu Sanniu, we will not only face trouble from Du Shi, but we will also be looked down upon by the villagers!"
Even if you and I have medical skills and won't be ostracized by the villagers, they will still be very unhappy! Also, your four older brothers are already of marriageable age. If we take in Gu Sanniu, I'm afraid your four older brothers will be all alone!
And you, you're already fifteen, at the age where you can talk about marriage, so are you sure you want to keep Gu Sanniu here?"
Rong Dong'an's words came from the bottom of his heart. He knew that Rong Sheng wanted to keep Gu San Niu, perhaps just because he felt sorry for Gu San Niu. In addition, Gu San Niu was poisoned, and it's normal for people to have compassion!
If it were anyone else, Rong Dong'an wouldn't have stopped him!
But Gu Sanniu... has too many troubles on his mind.
He didn't want to attract a whole host of trouble because of this.
Rong Sheng was disappointed that Rong Dong'an would say that.
In short, it's because my future husband has a bad reputation as a jinx. If he didn't have this reputation, my father and brothers wouldn't have this attitude!
“Father, I understand! Keeping Gu Sanniu in our house will indeed cause endless trouble! But Gu Sanniu’s house was destroyed by the Du family. You know that Gu Sanniu’s house is the thatched hut I used to live in. Now he has no home, and he has been poisoned and is unconscious. If we don’t take care of him, he will die!”
Rong Sheng didn't want to give up easily and wanted to try again. If she really couldn't persuade Rong Dong'an and the others, then so be it!
She'll think of another way!
"Father, how about this? Let's keep Gu Sanniu here for now and detoxify him first. Once he's detoxified, we'll let him go! Heaven cherishes life. Regardless of whether Gu Sanniu is a jinx or not, he's still a human life! We are both doctors with medical ethics, how can we just stand by and watch someone die? If word gets out, it will damage our reputation and cause problems for our future medical practice!"
Rong Sheng used her silver tongue to persuade Rong Dong'an, which made Rong Dong'an want to laugh, but seeing how serious Rong Sheng was, he forced back his laughter.
“Your method… isn’t impossible…” Rong Dong’an said, feigning thought.
Rong Sheng's eyes lit up, and she grabbed Rong Dong'an's arm and started shaking it, until Rong Dong'an had no temper left.
Anyway, this trick works very well with her four older brothers. Her father loves her just as much as her brothers. As long as she acts cute, her father will agree to her request soon enough.
Sure enough, Rong Dong'an tapped her head with a helpless yet affectionate smile: "You! Since Sheng Bao wants Gu San Niu to stay, then let him stay! As for the villagers, your father is here!"
"Thank you, Dad!" Rong Sheng jumped three feet high with joy, hugged Rong Dong'an's shoulder, buried her head in it, and rubbed against him vigorously, just like a kitten snuggling into its owner's arms. Rong Dong'an felt refreshed and happy.
Even Xu Shi, who was standing to the side, had a loving and gentle smile on her face.
As Rong Sheng stepped out of Rong Dong'an's arms, she saw Xu Shi looking at her with a beaming smile. She let go of Rong Dong'an and rushed towards Xu Shi, cuddling with her for a while before leaving the west wing.
When the Rong brothers saw Rong Sheng come out smiling, they knew that their parents had agreed. They were helpless, so they asked the old gambler to put that bastard 'Gu San Niu' down.
The old gambler gently placed 'Gu San Niu' on the ground. Judging from the way Rong Hua and his brothers acted, he guessed that they didn't want Rong Dong An to enter their house, so they had no choice but to put it on the ground.
Rong Sheng stepped forward to take Gu San Niu's pulse, then looked at Rong Zheng and said, "Second Brother, please help me... take Gu San Niu to your room, okay?" The poison hadn't yet invaded his heart meridian, after all, he had been cleansed of the poison last time, but it hadn't been completely removed!
Rong Zheng disliked 'Gu San Niu' because of 'Gu San Niu', he was beaten up by his older and younger brothers. If it weren't for his thick skin and the medicine he had, he probably wouldn't be so swollen by now.
Rong Hua looked at Rong Zheng with displeasure: "Second brother, didn't you hear what Sheng Bao said? Quickly take Gu San Niu to your room!" Otherwise, should Sheng Bao take him there herself?
Rong Zheng made a face at Rong Sheng, then pulled Gu San Niu up from the ground, hoisted him onto his back, and carried him back into the house in a long stride.
Rong Sheng did not follow them into the house, but her gaze remained fixed on Rong Zheng and her future husband.
As a result, she saw through the window that after Rong Zheng entered the house, he threw her future husband onto the kang (a heated brick bed) like he was throwing away cargo.
Rong Sheng: "..."
Gu Beiyi, treated like merchandise: "..." Is Rong Zheng itching for a beating?
It's okay, there will be plenty of opportunities to deal with him later!
Just you wait!!
The old gambler knelt down in front of Rong Sheng and kowtowed to apologize, "Little girl, I'm sorry! I've never treated you well since I took you in. I often beat and scolded you, made sure you weren't fed or dressed warmly, and often threw you out of the house to sleep in the yard. You almost died of illness several times!"
It was all my fault! I've realized my mistake now! I'm ashamed of all the wrong things I did before, so I'm kowtowing to you to apologize! I've spent my whole life gambling, and I gambled away my wife and children. I didn't take good care of you after I took you in; instead, you learned to steal and do bad things.
"I'm guilty! My sins are too great! So I don't ask you to forgive me, little girl, but I beg you to give me a chance to start anew!" He told the men in black that he truly knew he was wrong and regretted it. So he asked them to stop hitting him.
I'll do whatever Gu Sanniu asks me to do. If he asks me to be good to you, I'll definitely be good to you with all my heart!
I don't want to die! I especially don't want to suffer a agonizing death!
Rong Sheng took a step back and fell to the side. She refused to accept the old gambler's kowtow and apology!
She is not the original owner of this body and cannot forgive the old gambler on behalf of the original owner!
A life for a life! The original owner of this body is dead, a life! It can't be forgiven with just an apology.
So Rong Sheng sneered dismissively, "You old gambler, listen to me! You think you can get my forgiveness? Dream on! I, Rong Sheng, will never forgive you, even if I die! You'd better give up that idea! Big brother, third brother, I'm going inside. You two, kick this old gambler out! So he doesn't make a mess of our yard!"
Rong Hua and Rong Mu were overjoyed that Rong Sheng hadn't forgiven the old gambler. "Sheng Bao, go back inside and rest. Your eldest brother and third brother will clean the yard so your shoes won't get dirty!"
Rong Sheng strode into the house. Her future husband was waiting for her there, and she didn't want to waste time with that old gambler!
The old gambler felt a surge of fear and dread as he watched Rong Sheng rush into the house without even glancing at him. If he had known he would be treated like this, he wouldn't have beaten the little girl so badly, and he wouldn't have… taken her in!
