Chapter 182: Chapter 182: Proud Chapter 182: Chapter 182: Proud “Oh! Third Sister-in-law, you’ve sent your mother and the others back already?”
Mrs. Han looked at Su Yunjin with a strange expression.
Knowing that Mrs. Han had no good intentions.
Su Yunjin didn’t even spare Mrs. Han a glance and walked straight away. Mrs. Han, finding no pleasure in her attempt, had an unpleasant look on her face. She spat out and muttered under her breath, “Pah, what’s there to be proud of? Her man has become a cripple! I really don’t see what she has to be smug about?”
Su Yunjin made her way back to the room she shared with Gu Ya, where the door was ajar. A dim oil lamp burned inside, casting feeble light.
glancing up at his young wife.
His gaze grew even darker.
His legs were now completely useless!
He used to be lame in one leg.
Gu Ya had still been confident that he could provide a good life for his young wife.
But now both his legs were lame.
How could he still ensure a good life for his young wife?
“Yunjin, my legs…” Before Gu Ya could finish speaking, Su Yunjin interrupted him, “Don’t worry! Your legs are fine!”
Clearly, Gu Ya didn’t believe her.
Even the doctor had said his legs were beyond help.
How could they be fine?
Besides, Gu Ya’s both legs were now completely immobile!
He knew the state of his own legs.
He feared that he would end up like his father, confined to bed and immobile.
Gu Ya didn’t believe it, and Su Yunjin didn’t explain further. In a little while, she would reset Gu Ya’s legs, then he would see if what she said was true or not.
Su Yunjin approached Gu Ya’s bedside and without a word, she lifted the cotton quilt covering him. Gu Ya, puzzled, wondered what his young wife was up to!
A look of surprise flashed in his eyes, “Yunjin, what are you—?”
“I’m about to set your leg now, it might hurt a bit, just bear with it,” Su Yunjin said, revealing her intent to Gu Ya, who visibly tensed.
What did his young wife say?
She was going to set his leg?
The doctors couldn’t do it.
How could his young wife manage it?
Gu Ya remembered his young wife had once mentioned that she had helped her father to set bones for cattle in the village. Was she now treating him like one of those cattle?
“Yunjin, better not waste your effort on my legs.”
Gu Ya reminded his wife softly.
Su Yunjin gave Gu Ya an annoyed glance, “What? You don’t believe I can set your legs?”
Gu Ya truly didn’t believe that his young wife could set his legs.
But he did not voice this.
His young wife’s intention to set his leg was out of her concern for him.
Without caring what Gu Ya thought, Su Yunjin lifted up his trouser leg and began inspecting the injury on his leg.
she couldn’t help but fall silent for a moment.
It was clear that Gu Ya’s leg was just dislocated before, not broken! But after being ‘treated’ by that previous doctor, well, now it really was broken!
Su Yunjin internally criticized the incompetent Doctor Liu, when Gu Ya’s voice reached her ears, “Yunjin, Doctor Liu already said my leg is ruined.”
“Doctor Liu? You believe the words of that quack?” Su Yunjin looked at Gu Ya and said, “You’re lucky you met me! If you had let that Liu quack try to set it a few more times, then your leg really would have been done for!”
Gu Ya was stumped by his young wife’s retort.
Just as he was about to argue back, a surge of intense pain shot through his leg, followed by a crisp ‘click.’ Su Yunjin’s movements were swift and accurate as she successfully set Gu Ya’s left leg.
