After a pause, Song Rushuang continued to talk nonsense:
"It can be considered as praying for the blessing of the young master."
She just said this off the cuff.
It didn't even cross my mind.
However, the old butler didn't seem to notice at all.
I was even deeply moved by her words.
"Xiao Xi, you've really put your heart into this for the young master. I've lived to this age, and I've never seen a child as kind-hearted as you. Don't worry, I'll definitely speak well of you in front of the young master!"
Song Rushuang smiled, but the smile did not reach her eyes.
"Look at what you said. Xiaoxi just did her job. If you praise her like this, won't the young master think you've been bribed by me?"
"Haha, Xiaoxi is really thoughtful."
Of course, what Song Rushuang wanted was not something the old butler took the initiative to propose.
This will appear very deliberate.
However, the old butler was a very amiable person. The more he was told not to speak, the more he would keep talking about it. This was what Song Rushuang really wanted to happen.
After a pause, Song Rushuang deliberately sighed.
Then, pretending to be indifferent, he said casually:
"Speaking of which, we can't have only Ouyang as the doctor in our house, right? I always feel that he is too young, and he doesn't have any real skills."
After a pause, Song Rushuang sighed sadly and then said:
"Fortunately, I am the one who is injured now. If it was the young master, it would be terrible."
The old butler looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
Song Rushuang's intuition told her that what the old butler was about to say should be the news she wanted to know.
This made Song Rushuang suddenly excited.
Worried that the old butler was starting to back out again, Song Rushuang knew she should say something to add fuel to the fire.
"Uncle Han, you know me well. My greatest strength is that I keep my mouth shut. Besides, you are like an elder to me. Don't you trust me?"
What Song Rushuang said was so contagious and confusing.
The old butler nodded suddenly, as if he had made up his mind.
"Well, we're not strangers, and it's not something secret, so I'll just tell you straight away."
After a pause, he still said to Song Rushuang with some concern:
"Let me make this clear first. I'm going to keep these things to myself and not tell anyone else."
Song Rushuang nodded heavily and gave a positive response seriously:
"Don't worry, I can definitely do it."
After a long silence, the old butler finally spoke:
"Our Gao family used to have a very good resident doctor, also a foreigner. His name was, what was it? Wade or something like that. Although he was also a foreigner, his medical skills were so superb that no doctor in China could compare to him."
When he said this, Song Rushuang's heart moved.
He didn't care whether the old butler would be suspicious or not.
"Then where is this highly skilled doctor?"
Song Rushuang had been thinking about this problem before. If Dr. Wade was at the Gao family, the old man would not have been so seriously ill.
Song Rushuang believes that she is not yet old enough to be confused.
At such a young age, his memory shouldn't be too bad.
Twelve years ago, she personally performed the surgery on Mr. Gao.
Logically speaking, it is impossible for his condition to exhaust his life in just twelve years.
Because of this confidence, Song Rushuang felt that the old man was more like being controlled by someone.
But controlling an old man who has military power and is resourceful is as difficult as climbing to the sky.
Miss Gao Yunya has been staying in the Gao family all year round. If the old man is under control, wouldn’t she know?
Song Rushuang didn't think that Gao Yunya's two brothers could defeat Gao Yunya, the eldest daughter of the Gao family.
Moreover, before they left Kyoto, they clearly visited Gao Yunya.
She also made it clear that the old man was indeed seriously ill.
Song Rushuang felt that there was basically no fake information.
"About two years ago, the old man was unwell and took the medicine prescribed by Dr. Wade. That night, he almost died."
Song Rushuang raised an eyebrow.
Dr. Wade is such a capable doctor, and he has been with Mr. Gao for so long. How could there be any problem with the medicine he prescribed?
Song Rushuang had some doubts in her mind, but she did not alarm the enemy because of a momentary impulse.
"And what happened next?"
"After that, the Second Master really lost his temper and immediately fired Dr. Wade."
The problem indeed lies with Gao Yunyan.
However, Song Rushuang still found it hard to believe.
What on earth is the reason why Gao Yunyan would set his sights on his own father?
In the past, Song Rushuang probably thought that no matter how vicious a person was, they would always have a soft side in their heart.
He couldn't possibly have malicious thoughts towards his own father, right?
However, it is undeniable that he was the one who fired Dr. Wade.
If he really wanted to do this for the old man's good, he should know how important Dr. Wade is to the old man. Would he go to such lengths?
Unless, he had evil intentions from the beginning.
Song Rushuang's mind was full of thoughts, but she didn't show it on the surface.
"Could it be that the old man agreed to this?"
"Speaking of this, the strange thing is really strange. The old man just stared with his eyes wide open and couldn't say a word."
Song Rushuang frowned slightly.
Although I didn't say anything, I had already remembered this early symptom of the old man.
As for what caused it, Song Rushuang couldn't easily draw a conclusion.
Song Rushuang lowered her voice and continued to ask:
"So, what about the young lady? Didn't she get involved?"
This is not like Miss Gao's style.
"Speaking of which, the eldest lady seems to be ill, and it's quite serious. So Uncle Qiu came forward and took the eldest lady away."
Even though Song Rushuang was mentally prepared and had many ideas, she did not expect that the final result would be like this.
Song Rushuang really didn't expect this development.
"Qiu... uncle? Isn't the eldest lady... single?"
The old housekeeper was a little surprised that Song Rushuang would have such an idea, and suddenly felt a little amused:
"If I were single, where would Young Master Qiu come from?"
The corners of Song Rushuang's mouth twitched slightly.
It wasn't that she was deliberately looking at people through the crack of the door.
But Gao Yunya's husband was not there at the critical moment, but showed up when he was not needed. This made it easy for others to think that he and Gao Yunyan were in cahoots.
Of course, no matter how exaggerated it is, this is just Song Rushuang's guess.
So, it seems that it’s okay to exaggerate a little.
Song Rushuang finally figured out why Mr. Gao fell ill and why his treatment was delayed.
