Chapter 551 553. Hu Dong Arrives
With the joint treatment of Doctor Liu from the neighboring village and Doctor Huang from the county town, Gu Dashi's leg was finally cured.
“He had broken his leg before, but luckily he recovered well and didn’t suffer any disability.
But this time it’s different. The bones that had been connected before were broken again. It might not be easy to recover.
If the recovery is good, you can still stand up, but you may have difficulty moving."
Huang Zhongan washed his hands before speaking to everyone.
That was the cripple, and everyone present understood.
Gu Yuanjin, "What if it doesn't recover?"
Huang Zhongan, "After all, he is already quite old, and this is what I am worried about.
If I can’t recover, I’ll probably have to stay with this bed forever.”
When Li Cuicui heard this, her tense nerves finally relaxed. "Then doctor, can you help him take a look at his body to see if he has any other problems?"
Huang Zhongan just thought that this was just a concern for his family's health, so he naturally told them everything he knew, "At this age, you will have some problems, but it's not impossible to adjust. In the future, just eat light food, don't eat too much meat and fish, and don't be too happy or too sad. There won't be much of a problem.
You don’t have to worry too much. Even if you can’t stand up in the future, you still have a long time to live.”
Doctor Liu standing by couldn't stand it anymore and quietly pulled at the corner of Huang Zhongan's clothes.
Doctor Huang's medical skills are impeccable, but his interpersonal skills are a little lacking.
It is said that there will be no filial son by the bed of a long-term patient. Even if the old man of the Gu family does not need his children to take care of him personally, it is not a good thing to have such a person lying on the kang.
"We understand this, but we can't eat too well, right?" Li Cuicui nodded in understanding.
Huang Zhongan, "That's true. He can't move now. If he eats too well, it will be a burden on his body.
Now that the bone has been fixed, who among you wants to go with me to the shop to get some medicine?"
Gu Yuanjin called the waiter who was waiting on the side and asked him to send the two doctors back and get the medicine back.
When everyone left, there was no outsider in the room.
Li Cuicui covered her face and cried, "Why is my life so miserable?"
At this moment, Gu Sanbu didn't dare to blame his niece-in-law for being too harsh. He felt that if he had been there at the time, he might have chopped off Gu Dashi's legs directly.
"Uncle San, why don't you just write me the divorce letter."
Gu Sanbu, "You are talking nonsense again. Dashi was wrong in the first place. Don't worry, we will take care of it for you.
Besides, it is normal for couples to quarrel and be impulsive when they are angry.
What's more, it didn't take his life, he just tripped and broke his leg.
This is a recurrence of his old injury, it's not your fault."
All of those old guys had their own thoughts. Even if they were angry at Li for being so harsh, it was understandable.
They have a son who is very capable, and the sons around him are also very capable and bring jobs to the village, so they naturally know what to choose.
What's more, it's a good thing that the troublemaker Gu Dashi lies on the kang like this, otherwise who knows how much trouble he would have brought to the clan.
The unconscious Gu Dashi had no idea that he had been abandoned by his elders.
Hu Dong also entered the village when the doctor left. Seeing so many elders and members of the Gu family, his eyes flashed, and then he followed the others in greeting.
"How's the investigation going?" Gu Yuanjin had been waiting for a whole day, wanting to know what the other party was planning.
Hu Dong, "I lived up to your trust and sent out all my men. I finally found out something."
Gu Datian, "Is this really someone plotting this?"
Gu Sanbu said, "If you didn't scheme against others, why would you give Dashi real money? Listen to what Manager Hu says."
Hu Dong, "It seems that Mr. Duan has some connection with the Shangbu Shangshu Mansion in Beijing, but I haven't found out what he is planning yet.
I just heard that this person gave the old master several thousand taels of silver notes intermittently, and even Chen was given to the old master by him."
"Shangshu Mansion?" Gu Sanbu was shocked. He didn't think this was for no reason. It must be aimed at Gu Wenheng.
Obviously, the others had thought of this as well, and they all broke out in cold sweats almost at the same time.
Gu Wenheng had only been in office for a short time, but someone was already targeting him.
Li Cuicui stared fiercely at Gu Dashi on the kang, especially his legs, looking back and forth several times.
"Do you know the purpose of this arrangement?"
Hu Dong shook his head and said, "These have not been found yet. He probably didn't expect that the old man would be discovered by us so soon. It is estimated that the plan has not been implemented yet.
But to be on the safe side, I think it’s better to ask the old man for details, so that we can be prepared.”
"That's what we should do." After Gu Sanbu calmed down from his panic, he said, "Tell the tribe members not to leave the village unless necessary these days. We can discuss countermeasures after we have sorted out these things.
Shopkeeper Hu, thank you for keeping an eye on Fu County. I suspect these people are coming for your master.
If there is a way, send him a letter as soon as possible so that he can be prepared. "
Hu Dong, "Thank you for your reminder. I will send someone to take a letter when I get back. If you have any news, please let me know as soon as possible so that I can make the next arrangements."
Gu Sanbu asked Gu Yuanjin to send the person out. After a moment of silence, he looked at the people present with a stern face.
"Dashi's legs have been injured recently and he has been sick for a long time. He is now completely paralyzed on the kang. You brothers have always been filial to him. From now on, the burden of taking care of him will fall on you."
Gu Datian opened his mouth, but in the end all that came out was a sigh.
He knew that his third uncle's choice was right. Instead of letting him go out and cause trouble, it would make everyone feel at ease if he stayed at home.
Gu Yuanjin: "…" How should I respond to this? You have already made a conclusion about my father directly. Whether we agree or not, it will be bad for both sides.
At the critical moment, my mother spoke up, "The eldest brother and his brothers are all busy. We have been husband and wife for a lifetime, and his affairs should be my affairs.
Uncle San and all the elders, rest assured, Dashi's leg injury was caused by me. I will take care of his life from now on."
Gu Sanbu said, "...That's fine, but you're old now, and your family doesn't need a servant, so you can just keep an eye on him."
Li Cuicui didn't care about Gu Sanbu's defense. To be honest, she was probably the only one at the scene who hoped that Gu Dashi could live a few more years.
If he leaves now, not only will it affect Old Seven, but it would also be too easy for him.
Gu Yuanshui: "But my father is like this now, and the Chen family in Fu County..."
This is a problem. Gu Dashi has been in and out of there before, so many people should have recognized him.
If this matter is not handled properly, it will become an excuse to attack Gu Wenheng in the future, so we have to be on guard.
