Chapter 285 The Second Master of the Gu Family
"How can you blame us? We were just trying to do what was best for the old lady, to prevent her from suffering a terrible fate!"
"We're not doctors, her illness has nothing to do with us!" Qian Qiuxiang quickly said.
"It's your fault for not taking good care of us, don't try to blame it on us!" Fan Siying quickly chimed in.
Seeing the Fan family's sudden change in attitude, the Gu family's nanny and maid were furious. These two shameless bastards were simply too shameless!
Gu Erlang felt uneasy all day. After thinking it over, he was worried that his mother, who was already old, would have to go to the temple to offer incense and pray for blessings. So he put aside what he was doing and came to the temple as well.
Although she had agreed not to help Yunwei, her mother was still worried and decided to go to burn incense and pray for peace of mind.
He understood his mother's feelings, and he knew even more clearly that if he helped Yunwei, there would be a second time, and it would only be a bottomless pit.
However, as soon as he arrived, he saw that the old lady had fallen into a coma, and his expression immediately changed.
"How is this going?"
The old woman, pale-faced and trembling, recounted the situation. Upon learning that Song Ruozhen had a solution, Gu Qingxiu disregarded the conflict between the two families and immediately sent someone to chase after her.
Others may not know, but he knows in his heart that Song Lin was always the junior his father favored, and he and Song Lin were once good brothers.
However, the two sides lost contact later because of Gu Yunwei.
In any case, the Song family would not harm them.
"Madam Song, Miss Song, please wait."
The servant hurriedly caught up, remembering his master's instructions, and respectfully bowed before saying:
"My lady has fallen into a coma and is in critical condition. When the Second Master heard that you two had a way to save her, he also learned that our people were in the wrong just now, and asked me to apologize."
We hope that you two can put aside past grievances and leave the life-saving medicine behind. Our second master will definitely come to express his gratitude later.
Looking at the servant in front of her, Song Ruozhen understood who the Second Master was. Judging from what he said, it was clear that the Second Master of the Gu family was a person who knew proper manners.
She glanced at her mother, who had no objections.
They did not get along with Gu Yunwei, but there was no need to make things difficult for the old lady.
Song Ruozhen handed over the pills in her hand, "Take them as soon as possible. Also, the old lady's illness is a bit strange. If your second master is willing, he might as well find a few more doctors to take a look."
"Thank you, Miss Song!"
The servant excitedly took the pills, but couldn't help but wonder, the old lady had already seen many doctors, what could be wrong?
As for his heart ailment, it has been a problem for many years. He has consulted not only the famous doctors in the city, but also the imperial physicians, but they were all helpless.
After the servant left, Song Ruozhen and Liu Ruyan had no intention of going back to check, but continued walking down the mountain.
"Zhen'er, I see that Madam Gu's condition is very serious. Will this medicine really work after you give it to her?"
Liu Ruyan couldn't help but worry. She did hope that everyone would be safe, but the Fan family mother and daughter were not to be trifled with. If something happened now that they had made a scene, it would definitely implicate them.
Song Ruozhen smiled slightly, "Mother, don't worry, there won't be any problems with my medicine."
Madam Gu is her maternal grandmother, so naturally nothing can happen to her.
Now that Gu Yunwei has gotten into trouble, she wants to see how the Gu family will react.
The fact that Madam Gu came to offer incense and pray for blessings today must be for Gu Yunwei's sake.
If someone knows full well that Gu Yunwei and her daughter have done so many bad things and still insists on covering them up, then there's no point in acknowledging them as relatives.
It would be truly disgusting to stand on the moral high ground and force them to prioritize harmony and forgive Gu Yunwei and the others out of consideration for being family.
Liu Ruyan didn't think much of it and felt relieved after Song Ruozhen said there wouldn't be any problems.
"Actually, both Grand Tutor Gu and Old Madam Gu are good people. Your father had previously received favors from the Gu family, and even your grandfather had a relationship with Grand Tutor Gu."
It was only later, due to some events, that the relationship between the two sides faded. By the time I came into the family, there was little contact between us. However, your father still remembered to send gifts over often as a token of his appreciation.
Although Madam Qin and Qin Shuangshuang were truly outrageous and not worth mentioning, seeing that Old Madam Gu was in trouble, we should help if we can.
Liu Ruyan sighed. Song Lin had been missing for so long and there was still no news of him.
Although Song Lin's good brother has returned to the battlefield, saying that he will bring Song Lin back no matter what, whether he is alive or dead.
She had initially held onto hope, but as time went on, her disappointment deepened, and she figured he was probably never coming back.
Since Song Lin can't come back, as his wife, she has to do her part to help him. She doesn't want Zhen'er and the others to hate the Gu family as well.
Song Ruozhen thought that her mother's kind nature was inherited from the Gu family, while Gu Yunwei and Qin Shuangshuang's personalities were exactly the same as those of the Liu family.
Isn't Liu Feiyan's mean-spirited, arrogant, and unreasonable nature just like theirs?
"Mother, don't worry, Old Madam Gu's time hasn't come yet, she'll be fine."
She knew in her heart that even if she didn't take the medicine over now, nothing would happen; she would just suffer a little more.
Gu Qingxiu took the pills from the servant and quickly fed them to Old Madam Gu.
Fan Siying and her companion originally intended to slip away, as they had only intended to persuade the Gu family. However, they never expected that Old Madam Gu's health was so poor that she couldn't even hold on for a short while.
Seeing the medicine delivered, they breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they took the medicine, even if they died, it would be the Song family's responsibility, and it would have nothing to do with them!
The onlookers did not leave; they were all curious to see if the medicine Song Ruozhen had given them would actually work.
Shortly after taking the medicine, the old lady's breathing stabilized, and she slowly opened her eyes.
"The old lady is awake!"
The old nanny standing nearby couldn't help but burst into tears of joy when she saw that the old lady had finally woken up.
"That's wonderful! Madam, you're finally awake! We were so scared!"
The old lady slowly woke up and was surprised to find so many people surrounding her. "What... what happened to me?"
"Mother, you suddenly suffered a heart attack and fainted. How are you feeling now?"
Gu Qingxiu breathed a sigh of relief, helped up Old Madam Gu, and his eyes were full of surprise and concern.
Madam Gu waved her hand. "I'm fine now. I took my medicine before coming here today, but I don't know why I suddenly fainted. I'm sorry to have worried you."
"It's my fault, I should have accompanied you up the mountain."
Gu Qingxiu couldn't help but feel a lingering fear. Luckily, she sensed something was wrong and rushed over. If she had arrived any later and something had happened, the consequences would have been unimaginable!
If their mother goes up the mountain or travels far away in the future, they must accompany her no matter what. However... thinking about the heart attack just now, they can't help but wonder, is this pill so miraculous?
