Chapter 427 We can't repay evil with evil!
is words of praise were insincere and superficial, causing Jia Ren, Jia Xu, and Lu Cong to burst into laughter.Li Lao'er recalled the rumors circulating in the city and asked, "Lord Hou, has there bee...“Oh" 。Gong Yu reluctantly replied with a weak voice. 。He thought he was old enough to be responsible and help his older sister with things, but she still kept everything a secret from him and never consulted him about anything. 。Next door in Li's yard, Zhang Shenyi finished his meal early and told the crowd, "You guys continue eating, I'll go take a look at those siblings." 。"
After saying that, he left the house. He mama sent him to the door. As soon as she saw Shui Ling shrinking her neck at the doorstep, she glared at her and said in a low voice, “What are you waiting for Go back!”
Shui Ling immediately ran away, leading Zhang Shenyi into the Cui family courtyard" 。The brazier under the eaves was barely burning, and the medicinal soup had already been cooked. 。Shui Ling quickly carried the medicine jar into the house and then went to find a porcelain bowl. 。Dr. Zhang felt the pulses of both Gong siblings and nodded, smiling, “You two are truly blessed with strong lifespans. In just one night, you’ve already recovered.” 。Especially the little one, in another month he'll definitely be able to walk. 。"
Gong Yunshu quickly bowed and thanked him, but Zhang Shenyi stopped her, instructing, "Don't think you're unscathed. You're actually more seriously injured than your brother. You must drink the medicine twice a day, for at least two months. Otherwise, it will affect your lifespan. " 。Gong Yunshu had guessed some things, but hearing about drinking medicine twice a day for two months, she asked, “Divine Doctor, is the medicine I’m drinking expensive How much silver will it cost for two months” Zhang Shenyi had already lowered his head to examine Gong Yu's leg injury and casually replied, “The medicine you're taking has ginseng in it, so it's a bit more expensive.” 。But after two months, one hundred taels of silver would be enough. 。" One hundred taels of silver! Gong Yunshu's face immediately changed. She had thought that a dozen or so taels of silver would be enough, but she didn't expect it to be so expensive. 。To the Li family, they were just strangers. 。Mr. Li saved their lives on the street, which was already a great kindness. Now he is also spending so much money to treat them. 。This is no longer a simple matter of saving a life! Such righteous and kind people, they... She clutched the corner of her clothes tightly, after a long while she stammered to Shui Ling, "Shui Ling sister, please trouble you to ask Old Madam and Master to come over, I... I have something to say." 。Someone threatened us, saying they would harm the Li family! Shuilin had just poured the medicinal soup and almost dropped the bowl when she heard this. 。She dashed to the next room, forgetting to close the door. 。On the contrary, Zhang Shenyi only glanced at Gong Yunshu and continued to change the dressing for Gong Yu. 。Gong Yunshu struggled and fell to her knees. 。Gong Yu's injured leg had just been bandaged, and he endured the pain, kneeling beside his sister. 。Gong Yunshu patted her younger brother's shoulder, her eyes red. 。Zhang Shenyi sighed, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Don't worry about why your two sisters ended up at Suijin Beach. Just don't waste this good luck." 。As long as you set your conscience right, maybe happiness will follow after suffering. 。Gong Yunshu kowtowed and thanked the old man. 。At this moment, the old woman, Li Zhensheng, and Li Laodui all came. 。Jia Yin naturally couldn't miss this opportunity either. She stayed on the marquis' back and went to watch the excitement together. 。Seeing Gong Yunshu and her brother kneel on the ground, none of the Li family members helped them up. They all sat down one after another. 。The old woman looked at the two siblings who relied on each other to kneel steadily, let out a soft sigh, and asked, "Tell me, what's going on" Gong Yunshu reached out and embraced her younger brother, wanting him to have someone to lean on, hoping the pain in his leg would lessen a little. 。She took a deep breath and said, "Grandma, my siblings and I are sorry to the Li family" 。We were chased and harassed on the street before, bumping into an elderly gentleman. It was intentional. 。Someone forced us to do this, just to get into the Li family. 。Who forced you, who designed you Make it clear. 。"Lao Er Li's face was not good. Anyone whose kindness is used, wouldn't feel happy." 。Gong Yunshu's eyes flashed, enduring the indescribable sourness in her heart, and said carefully: 。Since my parents and grandfather passed away, my grandmother has changed. She looks down on me in every way, beating and scolding me every day. She also takes me to many relatives' homes, wanting to marry me into a wealthy family so that she can elevate the Gong family and restore its former glory. 。But people behind the scenes all say that our family has been unlucky and things have been happening one after another, so my marriage prospects have never materialized. 。Grandma said I wasn't ambitious and that she beat me up even more every day. I just endured it all, wanting only to protect my younger brother until he grew up. 。Grandma also started scolding her younger son, and I wanted to protect him but couldn't. 。She choked back sobs, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably. She wiped them away fiercely and continued speaking. 。A month ago, Grandmother finally found a way to marry me off to an old scholar as his sixth concubine. She said the scholar had agreed to tutor my younger brother and help him pass the imperial examinations, bringing glory to our family. 。But not long after, my uncle came to the house. I secretly overheard him talking to grandma, saying that I should do a small favor for an important person, which is... which is to somehow get into Li's family and seduce Master Li, marrying him as his legitimate wife. 。Even if she doesn't become your wife, she must stay in the Li family and listen to their orders, straightening out the Li family. 。After the success, a sum of money will be given to the family, and the younger brother will also be sent to study at a school. 。"What a scoundrel!" The old woman angrily slapped the edge of the kang, not sure whether she was scolding the Gong family for plotting against the Li family, or scolding them for sending their young granddaughter to be abused by the old scholar.Li Zhensheng and Li Laoer were also frowning deeply, especially Li Laoer, whose heart was even more complicated. 。After all, the girl was lured by his charm, and she really fell for it. 。Gong Yunshu was afraid that the Li family would misunderstand, so he quickly added, "My grandmother heard about your family's status and immediately changed her mind and agreed to Uncle's arrangement" 。I know, she wants to go back and use her uncle, hoping that I would really... marry into the Li family. Being a wife in the Li family is more helpful than being a concubine for a Hanlin scholar. 。She told her uncle that she could fake her death and have him hide her, then use her life to threaten my brother and me into following his orders. 。She didn't expect me to overhear all of this. I've had enough of her scolding and scheming. I also want to take this opportunity to run away from home with my younger brother. 。"Uncle and the others were afraid that Grandfather would suspect, so they broke my younger brother's leg beforehand, didn't treat him, and then beat us severely on the street. I really thought I was going to die with my younger brother." 。It was Grandpa who came to our rescue, took us in to recover, and spent his money buying medicine. I don't want to be a heartless wretch who forgets kindness, that's why I'm telling you the truth. 。Although we have our reasons, our conscience is not clear. We schemed to save the master's life, so please, Madam and Master, scold and punish us as you see fit. We are willing to accept any punishment. 。After saying this, she pressed her surprised younger brother's head down and made him kowtow again. They remained on the ground, prostrate. 。Neither the old woman nor Li Laer spoke. Instead, Li Zhensheng asked, “Has your uncle said who the noble person who instigated him is” “My uncle didn’t say,” Gong Yunshu replied, raising his head, “But I had the intention to escape, so I secretly watched my uncle. He was always conspiring with a ruffian surnamed Liu from the town. That ruffian has a brother who runs a gambling den in Xindu and is considered a big shot in our town.” 。"Back when my father was still alive, this hoodlum had tried to get close to him, wanting to drag him into gambling. He got a good scolding from my grandfather." 。So, I remember it very clearly. 。" A casino in Xindu! Li Zhensheng and Li Laoer looked at each other, their eyes filled with surprise. " 。The line that someone previously tempted Wei Dayun to gamble on, actually got connected!big spoonful of ice cream into his mouth. He let out a long sigh and smiled, “I’m melting! I’ve been dreaming about this bite!”Jia Yin glanced at him, picked up her makeup box, tidied up the small acc...
