Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Gu Yundong was extremely vexed. She had been so focused on beating up Doctor Yu that she had neglected her mother.
She quickly helped Madam Yang sit down.
An aunt kindly gave her a glass of water. Gu Yundong took it and thanked her before feeding it to Madam Yang.
Then, she wiped her sweat with a handkerchief. “Mother, how are you?”
However, Madam Yang suddenly hugged her. “Dongdong, I’m not going. I’m not going. He’s doing acupuncture. It hurts. It hurts so much.”
Gu Yundong was stunned. She quickly patted her back. “Alright, alright. I’m not going. I’ll stay here with Mother, okay?”
Madam Yang nodded and slowly exhaled.
After a while, she smiled again. She held Gu Yundong’s hand and said, “Go back and rest.”
The two of them returned to the inn. Along the way, Gu Yundong chatted and laughed with Madam Yang. She did not mention Doctor Yu at all.
However, the anger in her heart kept rising. When she reached the entrance of the inn, she saw a few beggars squatting not far away. Her eyes narrowed slightly.
If Madam Yang didn’t let her go, could she not find someone else?
After entering the room, Gu Yundong wanted to coax Madam Yang to rest. Unexpectedly, she took the initiative to hold Gu Yundong’s hand and said very seriously, “Dongdong, I’m not going. He poked my head. It hurts. He didn’t even let me scream or cry.” She became aggrieved.
Gu Yundong’s heart ached when she heard that. Quack doctors harmed people, quack doctors harmed people! It was simply intolerable for such a person to live so comfortably.
As she took out the puzzle for Madam Yang, she wiped her face and asked in a very gentle voice, “Where’s Father? Was Father not around?”
“Huh?” Madam Yang thought for a moment. “He’s boiling water. The doctor asked your father to boil water. He needed it.”
Gu Yundong understood. Dr. Yu had deliberately instructed Gu Dajiang to boil water and then inject Madam Yang.
She wasn’t allowed to scream or cry. Gu Dajiang couldn’t hear her voice, and he didn’t expect a doctor in the prefecture to not know how to administer acupuncture. He didn’t expect her to suffer so much pain.
Gu Yundong was furious. Wasn’t her father quite smart? Why did he make a mistake at this time and not see the true nature of a quack?
“Your father was so worried about me,” Madam Yang said. “I laughed with him after he boiled the water.”
Gu Yundong took a deep breath and said with a smile, “Yes, Mother is so obedient. But if it hurts in the future, you must scream. Otherwise, we won’t know that the person is a bad person.”
“Ah? Alright.” Madam Yang nodded and took the puzzle.
She hadn’t seen Ah Shu and Keke today. If she pieced the puzzle together quickly, she would be able to see them.
Gu Yundong was slightly relieved to see that she seemed to be fine again. She called her softly, “Mother.”
“Huh?” Madam Yang didn’t even look up.
“Aren’t you afraid of needles?” At least, she was calm after Song Dejiang injected her twice. Other than being a little nervous, she was not afraid.
Madam Yang looked up in confusion. “Why should I be afraid? Dr. Song was fine. Dongdong was there, so I was not afraid. That bad person was fierce to me and glared at me, not letting me scream.”
Gu Yundong did not ask further. Madam Yang was not afraid of needles, but humans.
Dr. Song spoke softly. He would chat with Madam Yang first and let her speak if she was uncomfortable. He did not feel any pain when he performed acupuncture her.
Moreover, she had always been by her side.
Of course, this was the best. It was just that she was afraid of the bad doctor, so she just asked that person not to appear in front of Madam Yang.
She looked at Madam Yang’s excited face and got up. “Mother, I’ll get the waiter to serve the food. It’ll be ready soon.”
Gu Yundong went downstairs, but left the inn and walked towards where the beggars were..
