Song Pan'er took Gu Jin's hand and also went to the old man's yard.

  When they arrived, Old Master was giving Gu Xuanzhi acupuncture.

  Song Pan'er and Gu Jinzhi quietly walked out, holding their breath and standing aside watching.

  After a while, the child slowly woke up, looked at the old man, and his eyes narrowed; then he saw his father Gu Yanzheng and turned away; finally, he saw Hong Lian and called out softly "Auntie".

  That voice was full of grievance.

  Aunt Hong's tears fell out in big drops.

  She covered her mouth and began to sob.

  Song Pan'er glared at her fiercely.

  She took half a step back in fright.

  Gu Yan's gaze at Song Pan'er had a few more parts of estrangement.

  Song Pan'er's hand clenched tightly, and a blue vein bulged out on his forehead.

  Gu Jinzhi quietly grasped her hand, and Song Pan'er slowly relaxed.

  The house is quiet and still.

  "Father, how is Brother Xun?" Gu Yanjin dared to ask the old man only after seeing that Gu Xun had woken up.

  The old man took Gu Xuan's pulse and didn't answer Gu Yan Zhen's words.

  Gu Yanwen's face was embarrassed and he didn't dare speak again.

  The house fell silent again.

  "Have you taken your medicine?" The old man asked suddenly after a while.

  Hong Lian stepped forward and replied, "Yes, she took the medicine that Seventh Miss gave her a few days ago..." Then, fearing that it would delay treatment, she added, "A few days ago, Xiu Ge also had this."

  The old man looked at Gu Jinzhi.

  "He had a stomach disorder the other day, with qi reversing upwards, which was a symptom of spleen and stomach damp-heat syndrome." Gu Jinzhi hastily replied, "I gave him Bao He Wan to dispel the stagnation. Later when he relapsed, he didn't come to see me again, and Hong Niangniang took it upon herself to give him that medicine once more."

  The old man's face turned ugly.

  He didn't look at Hong Yiniang, but instead glared at Gu Yanjin: "You don't understand medicine, yet you dare to use drugs arbitrarily? If that's the case, what is a doctor for? Take her back and let her treat her again!"

  He dislikes people who don't respect doctors, thinking they can cure themselves until they're almost dead and then come to bother the doctor!

  The sooner you come, the easier the illness is to cure, but you insist on being stubborn.

  Doctors can only treat illnesses, they cannot save lives!

  Gu Xun was also mischievous when he was a child. At the age of five or six, he would take his servants and run to his grandfather's courtyard to play. His grandfather didn't mind him at that time, so he let him roam freely around the house.

  As a result, he smashed his grandfather's inkstone on the colorful screen.

  That was an ancient inkstone, worth a city, which was the dowry of my grandmother. My grandfather liked the inkstone and it was also a relic of my grandmother's, so he always placed it on top of the colorful screen and often took it out to play with it.

  It was shattered by Gu Xun just like that.

  His grandfather pressed him down and gave his buttocks seven or eight hard slaps, still unsatisfied.

  After that, Grandfather didn't like Gu Xuanzi anymore.

  "Old master, it's my ignorance, I'm guilty of death! Please save the child, he is your grandson after all!" Honglian heard her grandfather let her bring the child back, scared and cried, knelt in front of the old man, tightly grasping his hem.

  The old man pushed her away, let out a cold snort, and said to Gu Yanjin: "Don't you drag this woman out yet? Is there still no discipline in this household?"

  How can we add fuel to the fire at this time?

  Gu Yanwen hastily gave a signal with her eyes to the maid beside her, telling her to first help Honglian out.

  Seeing Honglian cry, Gu Xuanzhi also cried, her voice weak as she called out "Aunt".

  Gu Yanwen's head got bigger.

  He could only plead with Song Pan'er and Gu Zhen to give them a look, asking them to persuade the old man. Gu Xuan's illness couldn't be delayed any longer.

  Honglian has been dragged out, and in front of the old master, Song Pan'er also didn't dare to be presumptuous, and softly said to the old master: "Father, it was our fault. Xiu Ge's illness will still need to trouble you."

  "Don't bother two masters for one thing." The old man's attitude towards Song Deng'er softened a bit, and his voice also became gentler, saying, "That child was originally taken care of by Sister Jin, let Sister Jin handle it."

  Song Pan'er couldn't help but feel secretly delighted in her heart.

  Gu Yan Zheng was greatly shocked and, disregarding the old master's displeasure, earnestly said: "Father, next time when encountering a less perilous illness, please treat Jin Jie again! Xiu Ge Er is already at death's door, I beg of you to have mercy and save the child!"

  The old man heard a few words from his tone.

  Did he think that treating Gu Xun for Gu Jin was a case of watching someone die without helping?

  Does he not know that Gu Jin has cured three difficult diseases?

  The old man took care of Yan Zhen and had an extra bit of displeasure.

  He glared fiercely at Gu Yanwen and strode into the inner chamber.

  Gu Yanjun wanted to chase after him, but Gu Jinzhi grabbed his sleeve and said, "Dad, Grandfather is already not asking for a diagnosis. You don't want to make things difficult for Grandfather. Xiu Ge's illness, I can cure it."

  The old man doesn't ask for medical treatment?

  How did you manage to cure your aunt and Hu Jie?

  Gu Yan's heart was both anxious and annoyed, and the words came out of his mouth: "You little kid, what can you cure? Although Xiu Ge is born by his stepmother, he is still your younger brother, Jin Jie! You can't delay him."

  These few sentences completely ignited Song Pan'er's pent-up anger.

  Her face suddenly turned bright red with rage, and her eyes were also red: "Gu Yan Zhen, you said that Jin Jie Er delayed Zhuo Ge Er? What do you mean, isn't it Hong Niang Niang who gave Zhuo Ge Er the wrong medicine, but rather Jin Jie Er's prescription was incorrect?"

  She gritted her teeth and glared at him with a ferocious expression.

  Gu Yan's eyes widened in fright and she involuntarily took a few steps back.

  Gu Xuanzhi was still lying on the bed of arhat, letting out a low and painful moan.

  This sigh made Gu Yan's fear of Song Pan'er decrease by three points. He faced Song Pan'er's anger and said, "I didn't mean that, don't make wild guesses! Who knows if Xiu Ge's illness isn't a leftover from eating medicine indiscriminately back then? Even if Mei Jie is clever, she hasn't experienced the world. Back then when Father was practicing medicine, there were times he made mistakes, and I'm not blaming Mei Jie! It's just that Xiu Ge is already like this, even if she doesn't help, don't cause trouble!"

  When angry, people often pick the most poisonous words to say.

  Gu Jin understood in her heart, but still felt a stinging pain at the bottom of her heart, and it was a bit dull and painful.

  She didn't say anything, standing there quietly.

  Song Pan'er panted heavily, for a moment she was so angry that she didn't know which sentence to use to counterattack.

  The door of the inner room was suddenly pushed open, and the old man stood at the door with a cold face, looking at his son and daughter-in-law who were arguing with red eyes. He said in a cold voice: "Get out! Take that beast away too, from now on you are not allowed to set foot in my courtyard, don't dirty my place!"

  Then he said to Gu Jin, "Come in and read a book!"

  "Father!" Gu Yanwen was shocked, he didn't know why Old Master would suddenly get so angry.

  Gu Jin followed his grandfather into the inner chamber.

  The door creaked shut with a bang.

  "Dad, I'm begging you." Gu Yanjin knelt down in front of the tightly closed door.

  Song Pan'er was taken aback at first, then burst out laughing and wished she could go back up to trample on Gu Yan's body a few more times.

  Gu Xun's spirit was exhausted and he was about to faint.

  Song Pan'er coldly smiled at Gu Yanxin, "What's the point of still kneeling? Why not go invite another doctor? If anything happens to Xiu Ge'er in the future, it'll be all because of your delay!"

  She herself walked away without looking back.

  Gu Yanxin looked at the tightly closed door of the inner room, and thinking of the old man's usual behavior, he knew that he couldn't knock open that door. So he picked up Gu Xuanzhi and hurriedly ran out.

  He wants to go see a doctor.
