Dress up as a farmer's wife from the Wang family and fight for the best with space
Chapter 636: Asking for Medical Fees and Medicine Money
Gu Lao Er coughed dryly and said with a smile: "No, brother, that's not what I meant."
"There's a misunderstanding about this matter. You may not know that my mother didn't mean to push my wife down..."
"Isn't this intentional? Oh, brother-in-law, you should speak reasonably. You knew that my sister was pregnant, and you kindly went to help your mother. But your mother treated her like this, causing her to have a miscarriage. Now you say it was not intentional?" Yao retorted coldly.
Although she didn't like Wu very much, for the sake of her husband, she naturally had to help Wu and flatter her in front of her husband.
Sure enough, after hearing what Yao said, Wu Xiong's expression became much better.
Wu Xiong said seriously, "Brother-in-law, I heard that it was your mother who wanted to rob your niece of the money, and it was my sister who was kind enough to help your mother and suffered this punishment."
"Such a big thing, you let Yun Hong and Yun Zhi tell us now, do you think our Wu family has no one left? Or are you afraid that we will come to ask for an explanation from my sister?"
Gu Laoer was a little surprised. From what his elder brother-in-law said, did he ask Yun Hong and Yun Zhi to say it?
But, he didn't let Yun Hong and Yun Zhi tell Wu Xiong! Moreover, he repeatedly told Yun Hong and Yun Zhi not to tell!
Gu Laoer quickly glanced at his two sons, then cried to Wu Xiong, "Brother, you really wronged me. We have known each other for so many years. Don't you know what kind of person I am?"
"My wife has suffered. The pain is on her body, but it hurts on my heart!"
"Well, I've hired a doctor and prescribed medicine for her. I'm making medicine for her every day."
Gu Laoer pointed to several medicine packets on the table in the room to prove how much he cared for Wu.
Wu Xiong followed his gaze and saw several prescriptions on the table. His expression looked better.
However, Gu Yunxi, who had come back to see Boss Gu, suddenly lifted the door curtain from outside and came in, saying with a half-smile, "Second Uncle, the doctor who treated Second Aunt was the one I invited from town that day, right?"
"Speaking of which, the money for the medicine and the consultation fee of 300 coins, plus the 10 coins for the barefoot doctor in the village, adds up to 310 coins. Shouldn't you return this money to me?"
Gu Laoer did not expect that Gu Yunxi would come back at this time, and he did not expect that she would expose him directly in front of Wu's family.
For a moment, Gu Laoer felt unwell and could no longer maintain the smile on his face.
"Ahem, Yunxi is back. We are all family. The doctor you hired to treat your second aunt is also the doctor I hired, right? I will give you the consultation fee and medicine money in a moment."
Hearing what Gu Lao Er said, Gu Yunxi smiled, stretched out his hand, and said, "Second Uncle, you should give it to me now. I'm afraid you will forget about things later."
Wu Xiong looked at Gu Laoer coldly. He was just feeling happy for his sister. Although she had a troublesome mother-in-law, she still had a caring husband. He didn't expect that this caring husband was also pretending.
Gu Lao Er couldn't laugh anymore. His niece asked him for money, his eldest brother-in-law looked at him coldly, and his three biological children watched him being embarrassed without saying a word!
"Yunxi, we are all family. Second uncle said he would give you money, so he will definitely give it to you. Why don't you believe it?"
Gu Laoer was anxious. How could he have extra money? He hadn't been working in the restaurant for long when the lousy restaurant owner changed his mind and fired him.
During the days they lived in the town, the whole family lived on the supplies given by the eldest brother of the Wu family.
But Gu Laoer was too embarrassed to say these things out loud. Once he did, would he still have the reputation of a scholar?
And Yunhong, Yunhong still has to take the imperial examination! If people knew that he was relying on money from his uncle's family to study and live, it would be embarrassing and his reputation would not be good.
After all, the Wu family was a merchant family, and could not be compared with the farming and reading family like their Gu family.
Gu Yunxi didn't believe it and thought that maybe his second uncle didn't have any money.
So, Gu Yunxi suggested: "Second Uncle, why don't you ask grandma? After all... my second aunt is like this because of my grandma."
Originally, Mrs. Wu was somewhat resentful of Gu Yunxi. It was all because of Gu Yunxi's return that Old Lady Gu went to her to snatch the silver that was distributed to the village, and then pushed her down.
Hearing Gu Yunxi's words at this time, Wu felt a little relieved, and there was no more hatred in her eyes when she looked at Gu Yunxi.
Wu said calmly, "Second brother, your mother does have some money. The land in the village was just sold, and the money is in your mother's hands. If Yun Xi hadn't mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten about it."
The money was originally distributed per person, and their second branch also had a share.
Let the second brother go and get the money back, that is taking back what belongs to them!
Besides, since Mrs. Gu caused her to lose her child, she should have some compensation, right?
This family was also divided, and Old Mrs. Gu lived with their second branch. From now on, everything belonged to their second branch, and all the money and silver from Old Mrs. Gu would be given to them sooner or later.
Upon hearing this, Gu Lao Er had no choice but to go to Grandma Gu's room in front of everyone.
After a while, he really came back with a black cloth bag.
Gu Laoer counted out 310 copper coins from the cloth bag, handed them to Gu Yunxi, and said, "Yunxi, I'm giving you this money."
Gu Yunxi curled the corners of her mouth. To be honest, she was a little surprised. She didn't expect that her second uncle would be so concerned about his reputation in front of her second aunt's family and would return the more than 300 coins as soon as he said he would.
Who wouldn't accept the money? So, Gu Yunxi accepted it with a smile and said, "Okay, I won't bother you anymore, Second Aunt. You take good care of yourself and take medicine on time. I'm going to see my father first."
Yao knew Gu Yunxi and had eaten the winter melons grown by the Lu family before!
When she saw Gu Yunxi coming, she didn't even have time to say a few words before Gu Yunxi was about to leave again. She became a little anxious and reached out to poke Wu.
Mrs. Wu didn't react and even moved her body.
Yao just watched Gu Yunxi walk out of the house. She was very anxious but helpless.
Yao took a deep breath and talked to Wu for a while.
Suddenly, Yao asked, "Little sister, did you call Yunle back because you want her to take care of you during your confinement? Where did your mother-in-law go after causing you so much suffering?"
Yao didn't know that Old Lady Gu had suffered a stroke. She just thought that Old Lady Gu was guilty and was hiding from the Wu family, fearing that the Wu family would blame her.
Wu smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, what's the saying? God is watching what you do. You really can't do too many bad things, otherwise there will be retribution."
"My mother-in-law is not hiding from you. She just had a stroke and can't speak anymore."
Mrs. Wu laughed heartily. That damn old woman, it’s good that she had a stroke!
The old woman had a stroke. From now on, I won’t have to be beaten or scolded by her, and I won’t have to look at her face anymore.
From now on, the mistress of the Gu family, Mrs. Wu, will have the final say!
