"Oh." Gong Yu responded lazily.
He thought that since he was an older child, he could share things with his sister, but his sister still hid everything from him and never discussed it with him.
In the courtyard of the Li family next door, Doctor Zhang finished his meal early and said to everyone, "You guys continue eating, I'll go see the siblings."
After that, he left the house, and Grandma He walked to the door. Seeing Shui Ling standing by the door with her neck curled up, she stared and scolded in a low voice, "What are you waiting for? Why don't you go back!"
Shui Ling immediately ran away and led Doctor Zhang into the Cui family yard.
The brazier under the eaves was half-burning, and the medicinal soup was already brewing.
Shuiling quickly brought the medicine jar into the house and went to find the pottery bowl.
Doctor Zhang took the pulses of both the Gong siblings, and finally nodded and said with a smile, "You two are really hard-working. It has only been one night and we have already seen each other. Especially the little one, he will definitely be able to walk around in another month." Gong
Yunshu quickly saluted and thanked her, but Doctor Zhang stopped her and told her, "Although you don't see any blood on your body, you are much more seriously injured than your brother. You can't stop taking two medicinal soups a day. At least you need to feed two." Months, otherwise it will affect the life span."
Gong Yunshu also guessed a little, but she heard that two medicinal soups a day would take two months, so she asked, "Miracle doctor, is the medicinal soup I drink expensive? After two months, How much money do you need?"
Doctor Zhang had already lowered his head to check Gong Yu's leg injury, and responded casually, "Your medicine contains ginseng, which is a bit more expensive. But after two months, a hundred taels of silver will be enough."
Two silver coins? !
Gong Yunshu's expression changed at that time. She thought that a dozen taels of silver would be enough, but she didn't expect it to be so expensive.
They are just strangers to the Li family.
It was already rare for Uncle Li to save the lives of his siblings on the street, but now he actually had to spend so much money to treat their illnesses.
This is no longer a simple life-saving grace!
Such a benevolent family, acting so kindly, but they...
She clenched the corner of her clothes tightly, and after a long while she said to Shuiling with trembling lips, "Sister Shuiling, please ask the old lady and uncle to come over, I... I have I have something to say. Someone is threatening us and harming the Li family!"
Shui Ling had just finished pouring the medicinal soup and almost dropped the bowl when he heard these words.
She ran to the next door in a hurry, forgetting to close the door.
However, Doctor Zhang only glanced at Gong Yunshu and continued to change Gong Yu's dressing and bandage.
Gong Yunshu struggled to the ground and knelt down.
Gong Yu's injured leg had just been bandaged, and he held on to it and knelt next to his sister.
Gong Yunshu patted his younger brother on the shoulder, his eyes red.
Doctor Zhang sighed, thought for a while and said, "Don't worry about why you two came to Broken Gold Beach. Don't waste this good luck. As long as you keep your consciences straight, maybe all the hardships will be rewarded in the future."
Gong Yunshu kowtows. , thanked the old man.
At this moment, the old lady, Li Zhensheng and Li Laoer came over.
Jiayin naturally couldn't miss this opportunity, so she strapped herself onto the Marquis's back and watched the fun together.
Seeing Gong Yunshu and his brother kneeling on the ground, no one in the Li family helped them up and sat down one after another. The old lady looked at the brother and sister who relied on each other to kneel firmly, sighed softly, and asked, "Tell me, what's going on?"
Gong Yunshu put his arms around his brother, wanting him to have support, legs and legs The injury is less painful.
She took a deep breath and said, "Old madam, we siblings are sorry for the Li family. Earlier on the street, we were chased, beaten, scolded, and bumped into my uncle. It was a deliberate design. Someone forced us to do this just to mess around. Enter Li's house."
"Who is forcing you, who is planning it? Please explain clearly." Li Laoer's face was not good, and no one would be happy if his good intentions were taken advantage of.
Gong Yunshu's eyes flashed, and he endured the indescribable sourness in his heart and spoke carefully.
"My grandma has changed since my parents and grandpa passed away. She dislikes me in every possible way. She beats and scolds me every day. She also takes me to many relatives and friends' homes. She wants to marry me into a high family and then support the Gong family. , to restore the prosperity of the past.
"But others privately said that our family had bad luck, and accidents happened one after another. Therefore, my marriage has never been settled. My grandma said that I didn't live up to expectations and the beatings got harder every day. I endured it and just wanted to protect my brother when he grew up. But my grandma gradually started beating and scolding my brother, and I couldn't protect her even if I wanted to. "
She choked up and couldn't speak, and the tears kept falling. She wiped them away and continued.
"A month ago, grandma finally found a way to marry me to an old Hanlin as a concubine in the sixth room. Hanlin promised to teach his younger brother to read, let him take scientific examinations, and bring glory to his family.
"But not long after, the clan uncle came to the house. I secretly heard him and grandma saying that he wanted me to do something small for a nobleman, that is... to try to get into the Li family, seduce... seduce the uncle, and marry him. The uncle will be the head wife.
"Even if it doesn't work out and I can't get married, I still have to stay in the Li family, and then listen to their orders and regulate the Li family. After the project is completed, he will give his family a sum of money and send his younger brother to the academy to study. "
"Too wicked! "The old lady slapped the edge of the kang angrily. She didn't know whether she was scolding the Gong family for plotting against the Li family, or scolding the Gong family for giving their young granddaughter to the old man in Hanlin to waste!
Li Zhensheng and Li Laoer also frowned tightly, especially Li Laoer. It was even more complicated.
After all, this was a honey trap directed at him, and he really brought this girl back.
Gong Yunshu was afraid that the Li family would misunderstand, so he quickly added, "My grandma heard about your family's identity, and she immediately I changed my mind and agreed to Uncle Clan's arrangement. I know that she wants to take advantage of her uncle and hopes that I will take her seriously... Marrying into the Li family will be more helpful to the family than being a concubine in Hanlin.
"She took the initiative to tell her uncle that she could fake her death, and then asked him to hide her, and then threatened me and my brother with her life to obey the arrangement. She didn't expect that I would overhear all this. I've had enough of her Beating, scolding and scheming, they also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to escape from the house with their younger brother.
"Uncle and the others were afraid that my uncle would be suspicious, so they broke my younger brother's leg in advance and refused to give him medical treatment. They also beat us very hard on the street. I really thought my brother and I were going to die. It was my uncle who came to the rescue, took us in to recuperate, and spent money to buy medicine. I didn't want to be an ungrateful white-eyed wolf, so I made it clear.
"Although we have difficulties, our conscience is not right. We are planning to save my uncle's life. Please feel free to beat the old lady and uncle. We are willing to be punished."
After that, she took her brother, who was full of surprise, and kowtowed again, lying on the ground.
Neither the old lady nor Li Lao Er spoke, but Li Zhensheng asked, "Did your uncle tell you who the nobleman was who ordered him?"
"Uncle didn't say," Gong Yunshu raised his head and replied, "But I have my heart. After escaping, I secretly watched my uncle. He always conspired with a gangster named Liu in the town. That gangster had a brother who opened a casino in Xindu and was considered a tyrant in our town.
"In the past, when my father was still alive , this gangster even approached my father and wanted to take my father to gamble, but he was taught a lesson by my grandfather. So, I remember it very clearly. "
A casino in Xindu?!
Li Zhensheng and Li Laoer looked at each other with surprise in their eyes.
The line that someone used to lure Wei Dajun to gamble was actually connected like this!
