The doctor wrote a prescription, and Gu Zhong looked at the prescription at a loss. It was already this time, and the city gate was closed. Where could he get the medicine?

The doctor had no choice but to think about it and gave a bottle of pills: “One pill at a time, crush it, and feed it to her.”

Aunt Huang gave the consultation fee, and Gu Rong drove the doctor away.

Gu Zhang said: “I still have some gold medicine left. I will ask Dalang to bring it over later. Use it first. Tomorrow morning, when the city gate opens, you quickly get the medicine back to boil.”

Aunt Huang and Shanzi stood by the door and didn’t dare to leave. Aunt Huang whispered: “It’s my son who caused the trouble. Give him this prescription and let him get the medicine tomorrow.”

Gu Zhong’s face was ashen, but he said nothing.

Gu Zhang handed the prescription to Shanzi.

Mrs. Qian suddenly rushed out of the room, grabbed Shanzi, and started fighting: “If anything happens to my Xing’er, I will kill you!”

Gu Zhang shouted: “Enough!”

This sister-in-law is a fool!

Firstly, she shouldn’t have quarreled about the matter. If she found out that they were having an affair, she should have asked quietly and dealt with it quietly.

Even if she quarreled, she shouldn’t have asked too much, forcing Shanzi to talk nonsense and finally making things out of control.

Gu Zhong came out with a stern face and grabbed Mrs. Qian.

Gu Zhang said impatiently: “Sister-in-law, don’t quarrel any more. Xing’er needs to recuperate quietly now that she is injured.”

“Her condition is still unclear. It’s useless for you to say anything now.”

He looked at Shanzi with a cold face: “You and your mother should go back too. Remember to get medicine tomorrow morning.”

Aunt Huang thanked Gu Zhang and took the distraught Shanzi away.

Gu Zhang sighed, called Gu Fei, and they went back together. When they got home, he asked Gu Qing to find the golden medicine and send it to Xing’er.

Gu Fei got up early and had breakfast. She was going to go to the city. Thinking of Xing’er, she filled a bowl with white rice porridge and went to the mansion again.

Shanzi had already got the medicine, which was still frying on the stove under the corridor.

Xing’er had been moved to the side room. She had woken up, but she was not feeling well. She was lying on the bed with a pale face. When Gu Fei went in, she was lying on the bed and vomiting in a basin on the ground.

Aunt Huang was taking care of her.

Vomiting was a symptom of concussion, and intracranial hemorrhage may also have this symptom. Gu Fei didn’t know which one she had.

Xing’er vomited and lay on the bed, gasping for breath.

Aunt Huang saw Gu Fei coming in and smiled at her flatteringly: “Xiao Fei, talk to her, I’ll be back soon.”

Gu Fei put the porridge on the table: “Are you feeling better? Eat something, otherwise you will become weaker.”

Xing’er raised one hand weakly and shook it gently: “Don’t worry about me. My mother and grandmother don’t care about me. I guess I will die in a few days. It will be peaceful to die.”

Gu Fei didn’t know what to say: “It is indeed peaceful to die, but what if you can’t die, what are you going to do in the future?”

Xing’er panted: “If you can’t die, then die again. There is no cover in the river. I will jump into the river.”

Gu Fei frowned: “If you don’t want to marry, then don’t marry. Is it necessary to seek death?”

Her voice softened a little: “Don’t worry, my father has told everyone, no one will tell anyone, let alone spread any bad words.”

At most, the people in this village will talk about it in private.

Xing Er smiled with a hopeless look: “You don’t understand. Second uncle, Second aunt, and several brothers of yours love you so much. If you are in trouble, they will protect you.”

“But in my family, my mother only wants to exchange me for money. As for my father – he has to earn money, so he has no time to take care of me.”

She paused: “I only have two choices, one is to get married, and the other is to die.”
