Reborn as the Blissful Wife in the countryside-Chapter 813: Granny Gu Collapses

Granny Gu nearly lost her mind, pointing at Doctor Liu and shouting, "Quack! You’re a quack! You must have misdiagnosed. My Youwen was fine; it’s impossible he’s paralyzed!"

Who is Doctor Liu? To indulge Granny Gu? He snorted coldly and called the attendant to pick up the medicine box and leave: "There’s a sickness. If it weren’t for the sake of silver, I wouldn’t be willing to treat such a womanizing illness. A scholar? Hah!"

Granny Gu had been overbearing for many years, and since meeting Lord Lai again, she became even more dismissive of doctors, scolding them as she pleased. She never expected to encounter someone like Doctor Liu.

Upon hearing Doctor Liu’s insult, her blood rushed to her head. She raised her cane to hit Doctor Liu, but fortunately, the attendant was quick and blocked it with the medicine box.

Doctor Liu was furious, his beard bristling, knowing the Old Gu Family wasn’t great, but seeing them in person was even worse than their reputation. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Old Master Gan saw that Granny Gu was getting physical, and he couldn’t bother comforting the other people of the Old Gu Family. He hurriedly rushed over to apologize to Doctor Liu: "Doctor Liu, please don’t be offended. Old Mrs. Gu is simply a worried mother, hence the aggression. Please stay and continue to watch over Lord Gu."

If Doctor Liu wasn’t around, what would happen if something unfortunate happened to Gu Youwen in the middle of the night?

Doctor Liu was infuriated and shouted, "Three hundred taels!"

His anger could not go unrewarded.

Old Master Gan immediately took out a three hundred tael silver note and stuffed it into Doctor Liu’s hands: "Doctor Liu, please don’t hold a grudge."

Doctor Liu snorted again, and under the attendant’s protection, returned to the room to continue watching over Gu Youwen.

Previously, Granny Gu didn’t believe Gu Youwen would be paralyzed. After all the commotion, she realized he truly was paralyzed and wailed, sitting on the ground and crying loudly: "Oh God, what on earth is happening? My Youwen was fine, how did this happen?"

After crying, she glared angrily at Old Master Gan, got up, and began to beat him: "Beast, you beast, you caused my Youwen’s downfall. Do you know who my Youwen is? He’s a Prefecture School Instructor and a descendant of Lord Lai’s benefactor. You harm Youwen like this; Lai Vice Magistrate won’t spare you!"

Mrs. Gu then turned her gaze to Yan Qin, who was sobbing outside the room, and rushed over to fight her: "Whore, you whore are the reason for my lord’s suffering. You vixen, you slut whom everyone rides and sleeps with, I’ll beat you to death!"

The servants of the Gan Family quickly rushed over to break up the fight, but Granny Gu and Mrs. Gu were fierce. Who could hold them back? The Gan Family’s servants ended up with scratched faces.

Yan Qin, who made a living from her looks, desperately protected her face. Seizing the opportunity when two maids blocked Mrs. Gu, she locked her eyes onto Gu Youlu, lunged over, knelt down, and hugged Gu Youlu’s leg, crying: "Old Master, save me, please save me. I’m just a servant purchased by the Gan Family to attend to Lord Gu. How would I know Lord Gu would suddenly be struck down? I’m truly innocent!"

Yan Qin was groomed in the brothel specifically to be sold to the rich and noble, more refined than Liu Bin, and with beautiful looks and a gentle voice. Her pleas fluttered and clung to Gu Youlu, making him weak in the bones.

If the situation hadn’t been so inappropriate, he would have surely helped the beauty up for a talk, but as it was, he could only kick Yan Qin away and say, "Though it’s not your fault, don’t you cling to me sobbing like this. We of the Gu Family are decent people."

Ms. Zheng had come to watch the drama of Gu Youwen and saw Yan Qin lunge towards Gu Youlu. She was ready to rush over and fight Yan Qin, but hearing Gu Youlu’s words, she felt pleased, spat at Yan Qin, and continued watching the spectacle.

Old Master Gan, beaten and suffering, quickly turned to Elder Gu, calling out: "Elder Gu, today’s events are a misunderstanding. Please have Old Mrs. Gu release me, so our families can sit down and talk properly, what do you think?"

"Pah, you’ve made my son paralyzed and still want to talk? Talk, my foot; today, I’ll tear you apart, burn your Gan Family, and have Lord Lai wipe out your entire clan!" Granny Gu was so enraged she spoke such reckless words.

Old Master Gan was shocked, and after his initial shock, he felt a burst of joy, looking towards Doctor Liu: "Doctor Liu, you must testify for my family. The fact is, Granny Gu is bullying by force, threatening to have Lord Lai misuse power for personal vengeance and destroy my Gan Family."

Then he said to Granny Gu: "My Gan Family was merely kind to invite Lord Gu for a meal, not to harm him. It was he, upon seeing Yan Qin, who couldn’t restrain himself and hastily pulled Yan Qin to consummate, which led to his sudden paralysis."

Granny Gu heard these words, paused in shock, then shrieked and started fighting Old Master Gan like mad: "Nonsense, you lowly commoner, gutter merchant, how dare you slander my son. I will fight you to death."

Then she called for Gu Youlu and Ms. Zheng: "What are you standing around for, hurry and come help."

Gu Youlu, having taken a fancy to Yan Qin, wanted to protect her a bit, planning to take her in after Gu Youwen’s situation was resolved, so he didn’t help.

Ms. Zheng, eager to curry favor with Granny Gu, rolled up her sleeves and went to fight Old Master Gan upon hearing her call.

The housekeeper of the Gan Family anxiously tried to intervene, but since they were women, he didn’t dare to touch them, only spreading his arms wide to stop them.

"Mother, please step aside, let your daughter-in-law take over." Ms. Zheng, eager to prove herself, aggressively bumped into Granny Gu, wanting to engage in a direct fight with Old Master Gan, but used too much force, and with a thud, she knocked Granny Gu to the ground.

Granny Gu’s head hit the ground hard, her whole body started twitching, and she began foaming at the mouth.

"Ah!" Ms. Zheng was frightened and jumped to the side, pointing at Granny Gu, saying: "It’s not my fault, not my fault! Mother fell by herself."

With Granny Gu’s collapse and twitching, everyone present was stunned into silence, and the chaotic scene finally calmed down for the moment.

Old Master Gan was the first to react, quickly shouting to Doctor Liu: "Doctor Liu, come quickly, save her!"

Doctor Liu was terribly annoyed with the Old Gu Family, but as a doctor, he couldn’t ignore someone in need. He rushed over immediately to treat Granny Gu, taking out a stick from the medicine box for her to bite on and quickly administered acupuncture to stop her convulsions.

After busying himself for 30 minutes, he finally managed to revive Granny Gu.

However, Granny Gu’s mouth was crooked, her eyes askew, and she drooled constantly, unable to speak.

"Doctor Liu, what’s wrong with my mother?" Gu Youlu was bewildered, never imagining things would turn out like this.

Doctor Liu glanced at him, sneering, "What’s wrong? Can’t you see it’s a stroke that caused paralysis?"

"What did you say? The old lady has had a stroke and is paralyzed!" Elder Gu finally spoke, his hands trembling as he stared at Doctor Liu: "You didn’t misdiagnose, did you?"

"Hah." Doctor Liu chuckled angrily, realizing why the Old Gu Family had turned out as they had; the root was in Elder Gu: "I’ve been a doctor my whole life and never misdiagnosed. If you don’t believe me, you can take Granny Gu to Qingshan Medical Hall to see Doctor Xiao."

Elder Gu wasn’t foolish; seeing Granny Gu’s condition, he knew she was truly having a stroke. But he wondered: "How did it come to this? The old lady has always been in good health, how could she suddenly have a stroke?"
