Chapter 549 Weakness
In addition, he was not a stupid person, and soon after joining the army, he was promoted to the position of chief of staff.
"So it's my nephew from in-laws's side. Weren't you at the border? What brings you back?"
Although Gu Jin was unaware of Ouyang Bin's poisoning and paralysis, he was, after all, his daughter-in-law's brother, and he had heard about his trip to the border.
Where is my sister?
It is said that one cannot hit a smiling face. Ouyang Bin was, after all, someone who had received favors from the Gu family. Even if he had a lot of anger in his heart before entering, he could not vent it immediately.
Looking at Ouyang Bin, everyone sensed that something was wrong with him, especially his words before he entered: "Give me back my sister's life." Those words contained a great deal of meaning.
"My second sister-in-law is giving birth right now, why did Brother Ouyang suddenly come back?"
Gu Shuyan glanced at Caifeng and saw that she had her head down. Gu Shuyan guessed that this matter was probably related to her again.
At least, it's related to the people behind her.
"Give birth? Jing'er has already..."
Ouyang Bin wasn't really stupid. He glanced up at the tightly closed doors and windows, and with Ouyang Jing's intermittent voice coming from inside, he immediately understood that someone had deliberately tricked him into coming back.
"I was rude just now, please forgive me, elders."
Realizing his mistake, Ouyang Bin immediately apologized to everyone.
Gu Jin naturally wouldn't hold a grudge against a junior like him. As the saying goes, concern leads to confusion; if he knew his daughter was in trouble, he would definitely do the same.
Inside the room, Ouyang Jing's voice gradually became louder and stronger, completely different from when she was weak before.
As everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Cai Feng's heart sank.
Things shouldn't have turned out this way! How could Ouyang Jing possibly still have the strength to give birth? That's simply impossible.
No, she can't stay any longer. She has to leave; she has to leave the Gu family immediately.
As soon as the thought crossed her mind, Cai Feng quietly retreated, but her every move was being watched, and no one would let her escape so easily.
"Stop right there, trying to run away?"
As soon as she rushed to the courtyard gate, Pearl and Jade Fist pinned her down on either side, and no matter how hard she struggled, she couldn't break free.
Gu Shuyan slowly walked towards her, a beautiful smile on her lips, but Cai Feng felt a chill in her heart.
"What? Trying to run away? Weren't you curious why your second sister-in-law had the strength again? Don't you even know who cured Young Master Ouyang's poison!"
"Who is it?" Cai Feng stopped pretending this time. Being caught while trying to escape was no different from admitting to harming Ouyang Jing.
"It's me!"
As Yun Yichen emerged from the delivery room, he immediately spotted Gu Shuyan standing in the distance. He smiled and walked towards her step by step.
Dressed in fiery red, he always wore such an eye-catching outfit, yet every move he made was as perfect as that of a celestial being, striking a deep chord in Gu Shuyan's heart.
Gu Shuyan smiled too. Dressed in white, her clothes fluttered in the wind, making her look like a fairy in a painting.
"Shushu, your second sister-in-law is alright!"
Yun Yichen approached and stood beside Gu Shuyan. His extremely gentle words made Gu Shuyan momentarily lost in thought.
When she came to her senses, Yun Yichen was already looking at Caifeng, who was being held captive.
“You are indeed ruthless, to give the young mistress such a vicious poison, causing her meridians to flow backward and preventing her from accumulating strength. If this continues for too long, she will not be able to give birth, and the pregnant woman will die from postpartum hemorrhage due to prolonged lack of blood and energy.”
Yun Yichen patted Gu Shuyan's head, then turned to Ouyang Bin: "Not only that, they also planned to wait until you arrived so you could see Ouyang Jing's body. Losing a loved one will inevitably make you lose your mind, and in that situation you'll definitely hurt the Gu family. Who do you think would benefit then?"
Yun Yichen's words struck Ouyang Bin's heart like a hammer blow, while also serving as a wake-up call for the Gu family.
"It's her, it must be her." Ouyang Bin immediately thought of that person.
Seeing that he was aware of the situation, Yun Yichen glanced at Gu Shuyan and said, "I have just cured my second sister-in-law of the poison. Now I have to go in and help her give birth. You must keep everyone calm outside."
After giving his instructions, Yun Yichen returned to the delivery room.
Gu Shuyan didn't understand the meaning of Yun Yichen's last sentence at first, but after Yun Yichen went in and Ouyang Jing's shrill scream came from the delivery room, Gu Shuyan finally understood.
The old lady had seen many births, but she had never seen anyone scream so alarmed as Ouyang Jing.
"Shu'er, I hope nothing has happened to your second sister-in-law!"
"Yes, Shuer, your second sister-in-law's voice sounds off!"
The old lady and Madam Ji panicked, and the few men who knew nothing about this panicked even more.
"Grandmother, Mother, everything will be alright with my husband here, don't worry."
Knowing Yun Yichen's identity, Madam Ji felt much more at ease after hearing Gu Shuyan's words. However, the old lady was different; she was supported by Gu Yuxin and stood outside the delivery room.
Seeing that everyone was becoming increasingly agitated by the sounds coming from inside, Gu Shuyan forced herself to remain calm and said, "Everyone, please calm down. You must trust your husband; he will definitely not let anything happen to your second sister-in-law."
As soon as Gu Shuyan finished speaking, a clear cry rang out, and joy finally appeared on everyone's tense faces.
Seeing this, Gu Shuyan breathed a sigh of relief and quickly waved to Wuyin. After whispering a few words in her ear, Gu Shuyan turned around to look at Yun Yichen who came out of the delivery room.
"Brother Yun, thank you!"
Men entering the delivery room is a major taboo, and Gu Shuyan was sincerely grateful that Yun Yichen was willing to help them in this way.
"Silly girl, we're all family, why thank me! Besides, doctors have a compassionate heart, how could I, as a physician, sit idly by and do nothing?"
Yun Yichen's face was full of smiles, which was completely different from his usual self. Thinking of what happened yesterday, Gu Shuyan's smile disappeared.
"Is there anything you wanted to ask me yesterday?"
When Gu Shuyan suddenly asked, Yun Yichen was taken aback for a moment, but when he looked at Gu Shuyan again, he put on a doting smile.
He was indeed shocked after hearing those words yesterday. The thought that the little girl might not be a little girl made him even start to suspect that she might be possessed by a ghost.
But last night, seeing Gu Shuyan sitting alone on the veranda, heartbroken, he felt extremely distressed. In that instant, he realized that whether Gu Shuyan was the same Gu Shuyan or not, he seemed not to care.
"What did I ask you? Oh! I know, you're probably angry that I went drinking."
Yun Yichen's feigned ease was unlike his usual self, but since he didn't want to talk about it, Gu Shuyan didn't press him further.
Anyway, once this is over, she will leave this place that doesn't belong to her.
Thinking this to herself, Gu Shuyan smiled at Yun Yichen and then turned to look at the newborn meatball being carried out by the midwife.
That night, everyone in the Gu family was immersed in joy.
