190 The Physician of Youjia Village is Indeed a Quack

Qu Lianghua was petrified. Now that he was chased away by Qu Yuanxian, where was his face going to be?

Moreover, he had yet to marry Cui Lingyi, so how could Qu Lianghua be willing to leave?

Qu Lianghua asked in confusion, “Father, what did I do? You’re chasing me and Xin’er back now. Xin’er was agitated today. How can we leave now?”

It was very likely that a tiring journey would cause a child to develop a major illness. Qu Lianghua even felt a little resentful towards Qu Yuanxian.

Qu Yuanxian said angrily, “Ask yourself what you did. You came to someone else’s house and were rude. How did I raise a son like you! As long as you have-” He suddenly stopped and glanced at Qu Lianghua in disappointment.

Qu Lianghua knew that he was not as smart as his eldest brother who was liked by his parents. Qu Yuanxian could not be bothered to talk to him anymore. He glanced at him coldly and made him feel even more uncomfortable. He said indignantly, “Father, Xin’er is just a child. It’s obvious that Madam Bai is the one who’s forcing others and has lost her way as the head of the family. How can you blame a child!”

Qu Yuanxian originally wanted to save him some face, but when he saw that Qu Lianghua did not know what he had done wrong at all, he said bluntly, “Xin’er is a child, and you’re a child too! Did she invite you to her house? Madam Bai kindly gave you food, but you even want her to be a cook! Do you know that her hands are much more precious than yours?!”

How could a woman be compared to his reading and writing hands?

He saw a trace of disdain on Qu Lianghua’s face. Although he tried his best to hide it, he was still caught by Qu Yuanxian.

“You still don’t believe it? Can you make cleaning paper? Or can you make a spray machine?”

“That’s just a simple skill. If the workers investigate further, they will definitely be able to create such a thing.”

Qu Yuanxian did not know how he had raised such a proud and pedantic fool.

He was furious. In consideration of Qu Xin’er’s injuries, he said to Qu Lianghua, “Xin’er is not allowed to leave the room until she recovers. Also, go and accompany her!”

Qu Lianghua lowered his eyes. His father clearly found them embarrassing and wanted to lock them up until they returned.

Although Qu Lianghua was dissatisfied, he did not dare to say no to the angry Qu Yuanxian.

Fortunately, the room that the Cui family had prepared for them had a wide view. Even though Qu Lianghua was guarding Qu Xin’er in the room, he could occasionally notice Cui Lingyi’s figure when she was coming in and going out.

Realizing that she was often heading in the direction of Bai Wutong’s house, he could not help but feel a little anxious. Was she still angry with him because of Bai Wutong?

Just as Qu Lianghua was worried about Cui Lingyi, the maidservant suddenly said anxiously, “Master, bad news. Miss’s wound has become red and swollen.”

When they changed Qu Xin’er’s dressing that day, they were shocked. It was red and swollen, and there were signs of inflammation and pus.

When Qu Lianghua heard this, he immediately looked at Qu Xin’er.

Qu Xin’er cried and hugged him. “Father, it hurts. Xin’er, it hurts. I miss Mother so much.”

Qu Xin’er’s exquisite face was wrinkled from crying. Qu Lianghua thought of his dead wife and his heart tightened. He comforted her, “Xin’er, don’t cry. It won’t hurt anymore soon. Daddy will bring you to the doctor now!”

A maidservant complained, “It must be the countryside quack who used medicine on our lady. Otherwise, how could it have become so serious?”

It was clearly just a scratch, but it had indeed become much worse than the previous day.

Qu Lianghua originally wanted to carry Qu Xin’er to look for Gu Zhongxun. When he heard the maidservant’s words, he also felt that it was Gu Zhongxun’s problem.

This countryside doctor was really unreliable.

He planned to bring Qu Xin’er to town to find a better doctor.

Qu Lianghua carried Qu Xin’er downstairs. Cui Shize, who was carrying a basket and dressed like a village farmer, saw them calling for someone to prepare the carriage and asked curiously, “Where are you going?”

Qu Lianghua said, “Xin’er’s wound has become more serious after treatment. I’m taking her to town to see a doctor.”

There was a hint of complaint in his tone, as he blamed Gu Zhongxun for his lack of medical skills.

Cui Shize instantly frowned. How could the doctors in town be as good as Gu Zhongxun?

Gu Zhongxun was the disciple of the divine doctor, Wen Renhua.

Many people came to Gu Zhongxun to treat their illnesses because of his reputation. If Bai Wutong did not come up with the idea of rolling the dice, Gu Zhongxun would not have a minute to rest for 24 hours a day.

Cui Shize also understood Qu Lianghua’s worry about his daughter. He said, “Doctor Gu’s medical skills are very good. He shouldn’t have made a mistake in his diagnosis. It will take an hour for the carriage to reach town. Why don’t you go and see Physician Gu if there might be anything wrong with her?”

Qu Lianghua naturally had to give Cui Shize face.

Qu Xin’er was sent to Gu Zhongxun’s pharmacy again.

Gu Zhongxun was giving Bai Wutong acupuncture treatment to stimulate her nerves and help her recover her memories.

Qu Xin’er cried miserably, her eyes red.

Qu Lianghua could not wait any longer. He frowned and said to Qingfeng, who was guarding the door, “Didn’t you say that children can be treated first? My Xin’er is in unbearable pain after being treated by him. Hurry up and get the doctor to come out and take a look!”

Gu Zhongxun was administering acupuncture to Bai Wutong. There were many nerves in her brain, so he had to be especially careful when administering the acupuncture, and he could not stop once he inserted the needle.

If he shouted and disturbed Gu Zhongxun’s acupuncture, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Qingfeng looked at Cui Shize coldly. “Take them away quickly, or I won’t stand on ceremony!”

When Cui Shize saw Qingfeng guarding here, he knew that Bai Wutong was inside. He said to the anxious Qu Lianghua, “Young Master Qu, calm down. After the doctor administers the acupuncture on Madam Bai, he will immediately treat your daughter’s leg.”

The injury on Xin’er’s leg was because of Bai Wutong. Now that she was deliberately preventing the doctor from coming out, Qu Lianghua no longer had a good impression of her.

He looked at Qingfeng hatefully, picked up Qu Xin’er, and turned to leave. “Let’s go to town to find a doctor.”

By the time they went to town to look for a doctor, Gu Zhongxun had already finished acupuncture on her.

Cui Shize sighed and persuaded him to wait a little longer, but Qu Lianghua felt that Bai Wutong might deliberately stall for time. Moreover, this doctor’s medical skills were not very brilliant. He shook his head and firmly brought his daughter into the carriage.

There were silver needles all over Bai Wutong’s head. Doctor Gu inserted the last one and heaved a sigh of relief. Bai Wutong could speak again.

She heard the commotion and called out for Qingfeng, who entered the inner room.

“They’re gone?”

Qingfeng nodded. “He’s gone.”

Gu Zhongxun was too focused to know what had just happened.

Qingfeng told him that Qu Lianghua had brought Qu Xin’er here just now.

Gu Zhongxun touched his chin strangely. “I gave the herbs myself. How can it become more serious?”

Bai Wutong shook her head. “Maybe they didn’t use it properly.”

Gu Zhongxun nodded. “That’s possible.”

Qu Lianghua took Qu Xin’er to travel in the carriage for another hour and arrived at Woqian Town. He found the best doctor in Woqian Town to treat Qu Xin’er’s injuries.

The doctor took a few glances and said, “This is an allergic reaction. You probably used the wrong medicine. I’ll prescribe you another medicine. Don’t change it back to the previous medicine.”

When Qu Lianghua heard this, he was immediately furious. A village doctor was indeed a quack!
