Reborn as the Savior of a Short-lived Father and Son

Those people said that her husband treated her very well. He did not take a concubine and never messed around with other people outside, except for those social engagements that he could not refuse.

After hearing such words so many times, He Shumin started to look for problems in himself.

Ask yourself, is she happy living like this?

He Shumin couldn't say it, but she loved Su Shixuan. This love made her humble and cautious.

But how can it be so easy for people in the situation to stay sober?

It was only after Gu Qinghe lived his life again that he realized that the most reliable person in the world was himself.

Mingxuan's long-awaited child came and left. She was alone, her heart boiling in turmoil before she made up her mind to break up with Zhao Wang.

The sufferings that He Shumin is going through now are nothing but minor ones. No matter how many reminders she gives, it will be useless. All Gu Qinghe can do is to help her avoid the schemes of Su's mother and that cousin as much as possible.

……

During dinner, He Wenkui had relaxed a lot. She no longer hid behind He Shumin to secretly look at Gu Qinghe. Instead, she sat directly next to Gu Qinghe and pointed at the plate of peanut crisps on the table. "My mother's peanut crisps are the most delicious. Sister Gu, try some."

Being looked at by those big watery eyes, Gu Qinghe couldn't bear to refuse.

What's more, she really missed Aunt He's cooking skills.

Aunt He is a good cook, especially these snacks, which are extremely delicious and are on par with the chefs in the snack shops outside.

After the family finished their lively meal, He Zhiyuan asked Gu Qinghe to go to his study with him, as he wanted to talk to her alone about something.

Before the two of them even reached the study, the servant at the door came running in hurriedly, "Sir, someone from the Duke's Mansion said that the old lady had a relapse of her old illness. I heard that Doctor Gu is still in our house, so I sent someone to ask Doctor Gu to come over and help the old lady take a look."

The Duke's Mansion and the He Mansion were on the same street. The old lady was too old to delay, so He Zhiyuan naturally did not dare to delay and quickly looked at Gu Qinghe, "This..."

Gu Qinghe said: "Since you sent someone to invite her, I guess the old lady's condition must be urgent. I'll go over and take a look first."

The servant hurried to the front hall to bring her the medicine box. When Gu Qinghe walked to the door, she saw Gao Cun, the subordinate who always followed Shao Wei, waiting at the door.

Seeing her come out, Gao Cun took the medicine box, and the two of them hurried to the Duke's Mansion.

On the way, Gu Qinghe asked a few questions about the old lady's symptoms.

By the time I arrived at the gate of the Duke's Mansion, I had already understood the situation almost completely.

In her previous life, she had never been to the Duke's Mansion, let alone treated the old lady. It was not that Shao Wei did not believe in her medical skills, but after she was with Wei Yanzhou, she promised him that she would not reveal her medical skills.

Shao Wei should have known about this, so he didn't want to embarrass her, so he asked someone else to help the old lady with her medical treatment.

Gao Cun walked fast and Gu Qinghe followed closely, and some sweat appeared on his forehead.

As soon as I walked to the gate of the old lady's yard, I saw Shao Wei standing there waiting.

Maybe it was because he came to the Duke's Mansion today, he was dressed much more formally than usual. The moon-white robe made him look cooler, and his slightly furrowed brows made him look more distant.

There was an aura about him that made people stay away from him.

However, as soon as he saw Gu Qinghe, his brows relaxed, and he walked over quickly, took the medicine box from Gao Cun's hand, said "Follow me", and took Gu Qinghe into the old lady's bedroom.

There were quite a few people standing in the bedroom. Outside the screen, the white-bearded doctor was discussing the old lady's condition with the Duke.

"It's not that I don't want to treat the old lady, it's just that the old lady is old, and even if I treat her, it won't have much effect."

"Nonsense!" The Duke's eyes widened. "When the old lady is not sick, she can even go up the mountain with crutches. Come on, throw this quack out!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Shao Wei leading Gu Qinghe inside. The Duke stretched out his hand to stop them, "What are you doing? Your grandmother is sick now, and you still have the time to stay here with the girl?"

Shao Wei handed the medicine box to Gu Qinghe with an expressionless face, whispered "thank you for your trouble", raised his hand and gently pushed her on the back and pushed her in.

The Duke was furious, "You!"

Shao Wei turned around and said, "This is the doctor I hired to treat my grandmother."

"The old doctor who has been practicing medicine for decades couldn't treat your grandmother's illness, and you let this little girl who hasn't even grown all her hair treat your grandmother?!" The Duke was so angry that he could hardly stand. "I think you've been out there for these years, and you're really going to rebel."

Shao Wei's father was Shao Kunping, the second son of the Duke's Mansion. He was very romantic when he was young. He had many wives and concubines in his mansion, and even more beautiful women outside.

Shao Wei was born to a beautiful girl out there.

After giving birth to Shao Wei, his mother took him to the Duke's Mansion to find Shao Kunping, hoping to enter the Duke's Mansion with the help of Shao Wei. Even if Shao Wei became a concubine, she would enjoy endless wealth and glory.

However, reality was much crueler to this silly girl. Shao Kunping didn't care at all about the child born to a woman of questionable character. He simply had the mother and child driven out, claiming that if she came to make trouble again, he would beat them to death with sticks.

The old lady who had just returned from the temple saw this incident. She looked at the baby in the woman's arms and said to Shao Kunping, "This child looks exactly like you when you were a child. How come you don't know about the romantic debt you committed?"

It was also because of the old lady's words that the mother and son were able to enter the mansion.

But within two years, the woman drowned in a pond in the Duke's Mansion. Shao Wei was still young at that time, and the mistress of the second house wanted to take Shao Wei to her side to raise him, but was rejected by the old lady, who had Shao Wei brought to her own courtyard to be taught carefully.

It can be said that if there were no old lady, Shao Wei might have already died in some corner of the Duke's Mansion without anyone noticing, just like his mother.

In the entire Duke's Mansion, the only person he cared about was the old lady.

No matter what the Duke's Mansion said, Shao Wei said nothing, but he did not move away at all.

However, the situation that Gu Qinghe was facing inside was not much better.

The wife of the Duke and the mistress of the second house, Mrs. Hu, stopped her from helping the old lady feel her pulse, and even ordered the servants to kick Gu Qinghe out.

Gu Qinghe could see the old lady lying on the hospital bed. Her face was pale and she was barely breathing. Although no one knew what disease the old lady was suffering from, everyone could see that she could not be delayed.

She was very angry, "You are stopping me like this, do you want to watch the old lady die?"

"How dare you!" The Duke's wife glared at him, "The Duke has already sent someone to the palace to invite the imperial physician. How dare you, a charlatan from nowhere, be so presumptuous in my mansion? Someone, come here!"
