The ginseng slice was in Gu i’s mouth, but she didn’t have the strength to chew. However, after the moisture from her saliva wetted the slice and she swallowed so of the juice, her spirits seed to improve a bit.
Her mouth moved slowly as she mumbled, "Stop crying, actually, I think this is quite good."
Yun Jiao bit her lip, "Who’s crying?"
"I’m not crying!"
She suddenly glared at Gu i and shouted, "Gu i, are you crazy? Why did you save ? Who asked you to save ? Weren’t you always just thinking of yourself before? Are you out of your mind now?"
Gu i’s lips curled slightly upwards, "I can’t help it, I’m in debt to you."
"I knew Da Lang from the Jiang Family wouldn’t survive, yet I still pushed you to marry him. I owe you a life, luckily, today I returned it to you."
She panted slightly, "Are we even now?"
Yun Jiao wanted to call her foolish, that it was just so silver, not a life, but not a word could co out, she just clutched her hand tightly.
Gu i whispered, "Aunt, don’t cry either, actually, I should have died long ago."
"Dying is also good, living like this is pretty aningless."
"I only wish to be reborn to a good family in the next life, with loving parents, harmonious sisters, and then to marry a good man and have a pair of sensible children."
Yun Jiao listened as her voice gradually lowered, her pupils began to dilate, and she couldn’t hold back anymore, bursting into tears.
At that mont, she infinitely hated herself, hated that she could only watch Gu i die helplessly.
Gu Lian, next to her, also held Gu i and sobbed uncontrollably.
By the ti Shen Qing returned with a bottle of White dicine, he saw Sister i lying on the bamboo bed, mother and cousin crying hoarsely, and father squatting outside silently shedding tears.
The dicine bottle in his hand rolled to the ground.
When Jiang Youzhi and Lin Shuo with Ah Hu arrived, the entrance was crowded with onlookers.
The group squeezed in through the doorway, seeing that all the furniture in the main room had been moved out.
The room only had a mat on the floor, with Gu i lying on it, and an oil lamp lit at her feet.
Jiang Youzhi looked at Gu i on the floor with a complex expression, then silently turned around.
As he turned to leave, Jiang Youzhi saw that the old woman and the one called ’Old Two’ were tightly bound and thrown into the courtyard.
It was so late now, the governnt officers and constables were off duty, they would have to wait until tomorrow to take them to the authorities.
Jiang Youzhi instructed Du Ruo to keep an eye on the two people, and with Lin Shuo and Ah Hu, he turned a few corners in the alley and arrived at the place where they were previously held.
He kicked the door open and went inside, seeing that the one called Chong Er was still tied up on the ground, but awake and struggling continuously.
Ah Hu yanked out the cloth stuffed in his mouth and asked, "Who ordered you to kidnap Doctor Gu?"
Chong Er shook his head, "I don’t know."
At so point, Ah Hu had a knife in his hand, and he stabbed it into the man’s thigh, saying fiercely, "Hmm? Not talking?"
Chong Er howled, "I really don’t know, I don’t recognize him, it was godmother who took this job."
"Master, spare , master, spare !"
Ah Hu stuffed his mouth again, picked him up, and returned to the Shen Family.
He threw the three of them together, then kicked awake the remaining unconscious old woman.
The old woman, who previously looked fierce and malicious, now had a high bump swelling on her forehead, and she appeared pitiful. Seeing the tall Ah Hu, she curled up into a ball.
Ah Hu had already heard from Jiang Youzhi that the person who killed was this old woman.
He felt no pity, shook the knife in his hand, and asked, "Who ordered you to kidnap Doctor Gu?"
