Chapter 131: Chapter 130 Quack Doctor

Huang Xiangwen said, "We haven’t divided our family estate, so where would the silver come from? All the silver we earn goes to the head of the family, and Mother is in charge of it. Youyou, if you want to collect silver, you need to ask your grandmother."

Gu Youyou wasn’t really trying to collect silver, let alone whether she could get any from her grandmother. Even if she managed to, her grandfather and grandmother might end up in a huge quarrel over it.

For just a few coins, she felt it wasn’t worth it.

She said this only because she wanted to disgust her second uncle.

How dare you despise the things given to you? I certainly owe you nothing.

Gu Youyou snorted and then said to Qin Changlin, "Oh, I thought some charlatan from the street had been brought here. But it turns out you’re a doctor from Jisheng Hall. Doctor, even such a small wound could leave a scar! Your medical skills are not very impressive, are you even qualified yet?"

Well done, Qin Changlin, plotting against me. I told you not to inquire about my background, yet you dared to show up at my doorstep.

Qin Changlin chuckled and said, "I haven’t completed my apprenticeship, still an apprentice!"

Upon hearing this, the hearts of Huang Xiangwen and Gu Wen jumped to their throats. Once they came to their senses, they immediately started cursing at Qin Changlin, "You dare to practice without completing your apprenticeship? You damned incompetent doctor, this is tantamount to plotting for wealth and causing harm! If anything happens to my daughter, our Gu Family won’t let you off! Come on, we’re going to see the official, I’m going to sue you!"

"That’s right, see the official, make him compensate!"

Gu Wen grabbed Qin Changlin by the collar, ready to drag him to see the official.

Huang Xiangwen also let go of Sanya’s small hand and joined Gu Wen in subduing Qin Changlin.

Qin Changlin looked helplessly at Gu Youyou, who was watching him with a smirk that wasn’t quite a smile.

At this moment, Gu Feng and Old Madam Huang entered from outside and were startled by the scene.

"What on earth are you doing?" Gu Feng bellowed sternly.

Old Madam Huang scolded Huang Xiangwen, "Sanya is still lying in bed suffering from pain, and you’re causing a ruckus here? Let the doctor treat her quickly!"

Gu Wen protested, "Mother, he is just an incompetent doctor; he won’t be able to cure the injury. He himself said he hasn’t even completed his apprenticeship."

"What?" Old Madam Huang also grew anxious, her eyes widening as she looked at Qin Changlin.

Qin Changlin, being held captive by Gu Wen and his wife, said in resignation, "I haven’t completed my apprenticeship, true, but I never said that I couldn’t treat the wound! My master is Doctor Zhou; even high-ranking officials in Beijing request my master’s medical attention. Would I dare to tarnish my master’s reputation?"

On hearing this, it sounded somewhat reasonable.

Who was Doctor Zhou? A famous doctor known far and wide. Would he let an apprentice with poor skills go out and disgrace himself?

Gu Wen suddenly did not know where to put his hands that were holding Qin Changlin; to let go seemed improper, yet it didn’t seem right to keep holding him either!

But Gu Feng was quicker-witted and more adept at handling situations.

He said, "You ungrateful son, release him at once and apologize to Doctor Qin!"

Gu Wen and his wife immediately let go.

Old Madam Huang also realized the situation and shot Huang Xiangwen a fierce glare. She then said to Qin Changlin with a placating smile, "That’s right, what Doctor Qin said makes sense. If Doctor Qin has not yet completed his apprenticeship, it’s certainly not because his skills are lacking, but because Doctor Zhou has high standards!"

Now that’s more like it.

The medicine Gu Youyou brought had been ground into powder, and Meng Qiuju served it, breaking the awkward tension in the room.

Qin Changlin was applying the medicine to Sanya, who cried out in pain again. Having cried too much, her voice had grown hoarse and she could only whimper, sounding heartbreaking!

Gu Feng spoke affectionately to Gu Youyou on the side, "Youyou, you should have let Dabao bring the medicine; why did you come yourself? Your health has improved significantly, but you still shouldn’t tire yourself. Stop standing; please sit down!"
