Chapter 70 The Gu Family Came
"They were just a pair of siblings who came to cause trouble. I sent them away."
Gu Jinxuan frowned, "Did they say they could perform seppuku?"
"No, these two siblings actually said that they can cure the young lady without seppuku. Isn't this nonsense?"
Gu Jinxuan looked up at him with a gloomy expression, "Are you sure they said that?"
Zhang Su secretly thought this was bad, the young master was going to deal with him. "Young master, that girl said she wanted to check on the young lady first. Maybe... the young lady can be cured without having to commit seppuku. The doctors in the hall all said she was boastful. We've also met many people like this on our way south, but they were all helpless. So..."
"So you chased her away? Can't Aunt Lan tell whether she's a liar or not? Hurry and invite her back to me!"
"Yes, yes, Master, please don't be angry. I will go and get him back right away..."
When Zhang Su led his men out, Song Yu was nowhere to be seen.
"Daddy, Mom, Uncle, and Aunt, we are back." Wen Nuo rolled into the room angrily, holding the donkey.
"What's wrong? Did something unhappy happen?"
"Sister, your medical skills are so great, yet some people say she doesn't know how to do it. It really makes me angry. Sister can definitely cure Miss Gu. If you don't help, she will definitely die."
Wen Can looked at Song Yu in disbelief and picked up the reward notice on the table. "Sister Yu, do you know how to perform a seppuku?"
"Sister Yu, when did you learn it? How come your mother and I didn't know?"
Song Mingen and Jiang Yunwan were also shocked.
"Don't listen to Arnold's nonsense. How could I know how to perform seppuku?"
Song Yu took off her veil and sat between Jiang Yunwan and Li Yuejiao.
"You really don't know how to perform seppuku?"
Jiang Yunwan felt that she would, after all, Sister Yu could dream.
On the way to Xuancheng, Song Mingen told her that Sister Yu brought a beautiful dead person back to life in her dream.
"Mother, even if I could, I wouldn't dare operate. I'm just curious about what terminal illness Miss Gu has and want to take her pulse myself. But no one believes me, so I won't join in the fun. When will dinner be served? I'm a little hungry."
"Dinner will be served soon. We'll be waiting for you to come back."
After returning to her upper room, Bai Lan quietly came in with a few medical books.
"Miss, the medical books with special materials in the cave have been picked out. The other medical books are sealed tightly. The people under Master Can are reliable and no one dares to touch them."
Song Yu took it and flipped it open. "These medical books must be kept separately from now on so that no one can find them. If I'm not mistaken, the cave master should be Qin Shengshou. He died in the poisonous forest under unclear circumstances. Who knows if he has any enemies?"
"So, seppuku can't be used to save people?"
"The world is so big, is it possible that only the cave master knows this?"
Song Yu suddenly stood up and pulled Bai Lan onto the bed, "Go up and lie down."
Bai Lan didn't understand what was going on, so she just lay down obediently.
Song Yu reached out and pressed Bai Lan's lower abdomen, "Does it hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt. What are you going to do, Miss?" Bai Lan's eyebrows suddenly jumped. "Are you going to operate on me?"
"Don't be afraid, I'm just feeling around to find the spot."
Bai Lan: "You're not really going to commit seppuku for Miss Gu, are you?"
"How is that possible? We're leaving for the north tomorrow morning. Let's just get a feel for it first. There's always a chance to use seppuku later..."
"Yan'er, you can't do anything stupid. Qin Shengshou is coming soon. Push harder..."
Mrs. Gu dodged the hairpin in Gu Jinyan's hand.
The two maids rushed forward and held down the crazy Gu Jinyan.
"Mom, give it to me quickly, I don't want to live anymore."
"Auntie Lan, hurry!" Auntie Lan stepped forward with a silver needle.
Gu Jinyan's face was distorted by the pain, and as the silver needle approached, his face became even more ferocious.
Perhaps to relieve the pain, his body suddenly burst out with powerful strength, broke free from the maid's grip, and snatched the silver needle from Aunt Lan's hand.
He stabbed hard at his neck,
"don't want!"
Mrs. Gu screamed and fainted.
When I opened my eyes again, I saw Gu Jinxuan quietly standing by the bed.
"Xuan'er, your elder sister, she..."
The head maid, Hongyu, said, "Don't worry, Madam. The young lady has fallen asleep. The young master just appeared in time and took the silver needle from her hand."
Hongyu was still feeling nervous at the moment.
If the young master hadn’t come in in time and knocked the young lady unconscious.
I'm afraid it's time to prepare for the funeral.
Well, if I can’t find a doctor who can perform seppuku, I have to make arrangements for my funeral.
"How's Xuan'er? Did anyone come forward with a notice?"
"Don't worry, mother, there is still time. Sister will be fine."
"Master, Madam..." Aunt Lan hesitated to speak.
Both mother and son felt a tightness in their hearts.
Madam Gu said, "Miss Lan, feel free to speak frankly if you have anything to say."
Aunt Lan looked at Gu Jinxuan and asked, "Master, have you found the whereabouts of the girl who said that it might be possible to cure the disease without laparotomy?"
"There is no news yet. What is my sister's condition like now?"
Aunt Lan said, "Miss, you just used up a lot of energy in one breath. I'm afraid you won't last until the morning of tomorrow."
"How could this happen? Didn't you say you could hold on until the morning of the day after tomorrow?" Madam Gu excitedly grabbed Aunt Lan's hands. "Hurry up and find a solution. You must have a solution, right?"
"Now all we have to do is find a doctor who can perform seppuku as soon as possible, or find that girl..."
Gu Jinxuan clenched his fists, turned and left the room.
When the innkeeper saw that Gu Jinxuan looked unhappy, he knew that the young lady of the Gu family was about to die.
"Mr. Gu, don't worry, I have arranged for someone to look for him, and there should be news soon.
"Shopkeeper Yang, have you seen the brother and sister today?
"Yes."
"Did you see what the girl looked like?"
"The girl's face couldn't be seen clearly due to her veil, but the brother looked plump and they brought quite a few guards with them. They looked quite prominent and must be from out of town."
Gu Jinxuan frowned, it seemed that they were not the ones who could give his sister a chance of survival.
"Master Gu, I suddenly remembered that the young man was holding the donkey rolls from the Yunshui Street intersection. They were also carrying a medicine bag. I think they went to the medicine shop opposite the Yunshui Street intersection. We can arrange for people to go to these two places to inquire."
"Young Master." Zhang Su returned with his men and found nothing.
"Have you found the person?"
Zhang Su lowered his head and said sheepishly, "We've already arranged for people to monitor the city gates. We'll definitely find the siblings tomorrow."
Gu Jinxuan tightened and unclenched his fists behind his back, then tightened and loosened them again. "Follow me."
The pastry shop at the intersection of Yunshui Street had closed long ago, so Gu Jinxuan and his group went directly to the pharmacy.
"Miss, how is it? Does it feel good?"
Song Yu smiled, "Fortunately, you have a small waist. If it were Arnold's round waist, it would be difficult to touch."
"Ha... Not only is it difficult to feel the heart, liver, spleen, stomach, and kidneys, but if I were to cut them open, it would be very painful, wouldn't it?"
"When you use anesthesia during seppuku, it doesn't hurt. You won't feel anything, but it will hurt a little when the anesthetic wears off."
"Miss, I really want to see you use a knife. Why don't you practice on Ah Si first?"
"Let's practice on a pig first. Unfortunately, the sow is still at the Hot Spring Villa."
"Sister, sister."
Song Yu frowned. Why was he here so late at night? "Lan'er, tell him I'm going to bed."
Bai Lan opened the door and said, "Master Xiao Nuo, my lady has gone to bed. Let's talk tomorrow if we have anything to say."
"The Gu family is here."
