One day in April, He Yuhan finished teaching the children and returned home from school. When she entered the door, she saw that her older brother had arrived.
She put down the stack of books she was carrying and asked, "Big brother, what brings you here?"
He Zhenhua said, "Qi Shen is in trouble. I've come to Yi Xian to see what can be done."
Upon hearing this, He Yuhan asked in shock, "What happened to Brother Gu?"
At this moment, Han Yixian, whom Gu Huayang had run to the field to find, also hurriedly returned.
He Yuhan was about to speak when she saw Han Yixian return, but stopped herself when she saw Gu Huayang following behind him. She didn't want Gu Huayang to know that his father had an accident and worry about him.
Gu Huayang is already eight years old and knows a lot of things, so it's best if they don't talk about Gu Qishen in front of him.
She pulled her eldest brother, who was about to speak, and said, "Brother Yi, let's go to the study with our eldest brother to talk."
Wen Jinyu saw Gu Huayang and said, "Yes, you two go to Yuhan's study to talk. I'll make lunch right away."
Finally, Han Xiao, Han Yixian, He Zhenhua, and He Yuhan went into the study where He Yuhan usually drew pictures.
He Yuhan spoke first: "Brother Yi, my eldest brother said that Brother Gu is in trouble."
He Zhenhua continued, "Qi Shen has been placed under quarantine for investigation."
Han Yixian frowned upon hearing this and said, "Why so suddenly? There wasn't a single sign."
He Zhenhua said, "Something happened to the Gu family in Kyoto, and Qi Shen was implicated. Fortunately, Qi Shen's rank is not high and he is far away, so the situation is probably not too serious. At present, he is just under quarantine and investigation."
I was thinking of ways to get Qi Shen out of there, or perhaps have him come to the countryside. His health isn't good; he vomited blood a few days ago, and the hospital diagnosed him with a stomach hemorrhage. It would be good for him to come here and recuperate.”
He Yuhan frowned and said, "His stomach problem is getting worse and worse. Is he taking the medicine I prescribed on time?"
He Zhenhua shook his head and said, "He's often not home, and it's inconvenient for him to take his medicine on time when he's out."
Han Yixian immediately said, "I'll take a shower and change my clothes before I go with you. My suggestion is that Qi Shen go to the countryside and tell everyone he's seriously ill. He should also try to avoid showing his face in public and wait until things calm down. He should also take this opportunity to recuperate."
Han Xiao said, "It seems the situation is getting more and more serious. Qi Shen should come to Beili Village. Zhenhua should also be careful in the future. I think he shouldn't stay where he is now. Yi Xian, go and find Zheng Ye and ask him to send Zhenhua to the machinery factory. It should be better for him to go to a factory."
Han Yi thought for a moment and said, "Although going to the factory is not necessarily safe, Zheng Ye is in the machinery factory, so we can look out for each other."
Wen Jinyu quickly prepared lunch, and Han Yixian and He Zhenhua ate and then left in a hurry.
He Yuhan was on tenterhooks at home, but she still prepared a room for Gu Qishen in the courtyard where her in-laws lived, so that Gu Qishen would have a place to stay if he came.
Three days later, Han Yixian and He Zhenhua returned with Gu Qishen. They drove Gu Qishen back. When Han Yixian carried Gu Qishen out of the car, the people waiting at the gate didn't recognize him.
Gu Qishen was emaciated, his eyes sunken, his face sallow and pale, and his lips bloodless. His clothes hung loosely on him.
Gu Qishen seemed to be unconscious at this moment and did not greet anyone.
As soon as Gu Huayang saw his father like this, he burst into tears and rushed to his father's side, asking what was wrong.
Han Yi first reassured Gu Huayang and then asked, "Yuhan, is the room prepared for Qi Shen ready?"
He Yuhan quickly replied, "It's all packed up now, in the yard where my parents live."
Han Yixian carried Gu Qishen on his back and said, "Then you lead the way."
He Yuhan then led Han Yi to the room that had been prepared for Gu Qishen. He Zhenhua unloaded everything from the car.
Wen Jinyu followed him into the house and asked worriedly, "Yixian, what happened to Qi Shen?"
Han Yixian said, "Qi Shen has been locked in a room for the past few days, and at first no one was allowed to visit him. His only food each day was a dry and hard cornbread. Not only was he not full, but Qi Shen's stomach problems were also very serious, so he couldn't eat that. He has vomited blood several times in the past few days. Now he is somewhat unconscious."
"Yuhan, we need to get Qi Shen treated quickly, otherwise I'm afraid something terrible might happen to him."
He Yuhan quickly checked Gu Qishen's pulse; his condition was serious. Fortunately, Han Yixian had brought Gu Qishen back, otherwise it would have been a real problem.
He Yuhan said, "I'll go and make some nutritious liquid food for Brother Gu first, and then give him his medicine. Let him lie down and rest first."
Gu Huayang, crying, grabbed He Yuhan's hand and asked, "Auntie, can Dad's illness be cured?"
He Yuhan comforted Gu Huayang, who was terrified, "Of course it can be cured. Auntie will go and brew some medicine for your father right away. Huayang, be good and don't cry. Let your father rest well."
Gu Huayang nodded obediently, wiped away his tears and stopped crying, and just stood by the bed holding his father's hand.
At this moment, Gu Qishen regained some consciousness and barely opened his eyes. He saw his son standing in front of him and knew that Han Yixian had taken him back to Beili Village. He was safe.
Gu Qishen looked at his son's tear-streaked face and said weakly, "Huayang, be good. Dad is fine. With Auntie here, Dad will get better soon."
Han Yixian said, "Qi Shen, you should rest for a while. Yu Han went to make you something to eat. Eat something before taking your medicine."
Han Xiao said, "Qi Shen, from now on, just stay here and take good care of your health. Health is the foundation of everything; as the saying goes, 'Where there's life, there's hope.' You should know this principle. You need to take good care of your health."
Once I recover, I'll stay in Beili Village. Here, as long as I work, I'll have food to eat. I need to secure my own survival and raise my child first.
Gu Qishen said weakly, "I'll listen to Uncle Han."
Han Xiao said, "Alright, we won't bother you anymore. You should get some rest."
Everyone except Gu Huayang left the room so that Gu Qishen could rest.
He Yuhan quickly prepared some porridge, adding some of the good ingredients she had secretly taken from her space. This porridge could quickly replenish the nutrients Gu Qishen needed and was also very beneficial for his stomach problems.
Gu Qishen felt much better after drinking the porridge made by He Yuhan. It was as if a warm current flowed into his stomach, relieving the pain considerably.
Not long after Gu Qishen finished his porridge, He Yuhan brought him a bowl of herbal soup.
Gu Qishen knew his body couldn't hold on any longer, so he readily drank the medicine.
His stomach felt much better, and he felt warm all over. Soon, sleepiness overcame him, and Gu Qishen fell asleep. This time, he fell asleep, not unconscious.
Seeing that Gu Qishen was asleep, He Yuhan quietly pulled Gu Huayang away from the room. The child was relieved to see that his father had taken the medicine his aunt had prepared.
