He didn't like getting involved in Guo You's mess anyway, and if it weren't for the county magistrate's sake, he would have liked to beat Guo You up.
So he waved his hand and said, "In that case, you can go back now."
Just make sure the appearances are maintained. Anyway, judging from Guo You's condition, he won't get better anytime soon. Once he recovers, the county magistrate probably won't have time to deal with these things anymore.
Guo You was extremely anxious when he saw that Yu Deshui was about to let the three go.
He can't speak yet, he can only make muffled noises, but no one around him pays any attention to him.
Guo Youzhi stomped his feet in anger and glared at Yu Deshui resentfully.
That damned lackey, how could he be so muddle-headed?
He's given such obvious hints, how can he not understand his own feelings?
Cui Yulu and Han Chunying glared triumphantly at Guo You before leaving with Han Yu'an, looking quite pleased with themselves.
Just then, the county magistrate, who was shopping with Guo Mudan, witnessed this scene. Guo Mudan was furious to see her younger brother being bullied.
"What happened? How did my brother get bullied like this? What are you doing here?"
Guo Mudan angrily put her hands on her hips and berated the servants: "How dare you protect your master? You just watched him being bullied. What use are you? Bring the murderer here right now!"
Looking at her brother's pitiful state, she touched his face with heartache: "Such a good child has been bullied like this. Master, you must stand up for my brother."
Unable to bear it any longer, Yu Deshui gently reminded him, "Master, the thing is this: this young master Guo may have had a relapse of his illness; it has nothing to do with anyone else."
Guo You glared at Yu Deshui and said, "You're the one who's having a fit of madness, your whole family is having a fit of madness."
"You're talking nonsense. My brother doesn't have any convulsion problems. He must have been beaten up."
Guo Mudan was no pushover either; she quickly fixed her gaze on the three people walking briskly.
"You three, stop right there! I have something to ask you."
Cui Yulu thought to herself that today was really unlucky; nothing good ever came of meeting Guo Youzhun.
I didn't check the almanac before going out today; it must have said that today is not auspicious for going out.
"Waaaaah, waaaah..."
Guo You pointed at the three people and mumbled something to his sister, as if to say, "Sister, you guessed right."
Guo Mudan felt a pang of heartache seeing her younger brother's aggrieved expression.
"Master, interrogate those three women quickly, they must have done it."
“I have already interrogated Aunt Guo and the other two. This young master is a scholar and certainly wouldn’t do anything bad, so I let them go.”
"Hmph, you're a fool too. Didn't you see my brother shouting the whole time? He kept pointing at those three people. You still can't understand? You're really stupid. Master, why don't you replace Yu Deshui tomorrow?"
Guo Mudan glanced at Yu Deshui with disdain; she had long disliked him.
When Cui Yulu saw Guo Mudan, she felt that something was wrong. This person must be sick, seriously sick.
Guo Mudan noticed that Cui Yulu was staring at her, and a hint of impatience appeared on her face.
"Why are you staring at me like that? Is there something wrong with my face?"
"No, we just discovered a problem with you that could be life-threatening if left untreated."
Even if she used a lot of perfume to cover up her body odor, others might not be able to smell it, but it couldn't fool Cui Yulu's nose.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Did you do this to my brother?"
Guo Mudan felt uncomfortable under her gaze and shouted at her sharply.
"You must not get angry again, it will make your condition worse."
After circling around her, Cui Yulu continued, "Have you noticed that your periods are becoming increasingly irregular, and your stomach is always feeling dull and painful?"
She looked closely at Guo Mudan's face and said, "Tsk tsk, even with such thick makeup, you can't hide your beard. It seems your condition is quite serious."
"You, you're talking nonsense! I don't have a beard! Someone, slap him in the face!"
Han Yu'an quickly shielded Cui Yulu behind him: "Don't touch her, come at me if you have any problems."
Cui Yulu was deeply moved as she watched Han Yu'an's retreating figure, knowing that he cared about her.
“I’m telling you the truth, and I believe you can feel it yourself. However, your treatment is going in the wrong direction, so let me treat you instead.”
Guo Mudan's expression changed repeatedly; Cui Yulu had accurately described all her symptoms.
However, she did not want the magistrate to know about this. She had not yet given birth to any children for the magistrate, and her position was not yet secure. She must not let the magistrate know that her illness was affecting her ability to have children.
Li Rushui is now over forty years old and has three concubines in her household. Guo Mudan is the youngest and has not yet given birth, while the other concubines have all given birth to children, but none of them have given birth to a son.
Therefore, the heavy responsibility of giving birth to a son fell on Guo Mudan's shoulders.
This is why she was afraid that Cui Yulu would tell the truth.
"Don't talk nonsense, you little brat. Did you hit my brother? Guards, arrest this girl!"
“Your brother’s karma is his own doing and has nothing to do with us. I warned him before, but he didn’t listen and this is what happened. You can’t blame us for this.”
As Magistrate Li Rushui looked at the three people in front of him, he suddenly felt a sense of familiarity, as if he had seen them somewhere before.
I can't remember where I've seen it before.
"Stop talking nonsense, what exactly is going on?"
Li Rushui looked at the people in front of him with impatience; he didn't have the patience to deal with these trivial matters.
"What's wrong with you? You're not even willing to handle my affairs. Don't you care about me anymore?"
