Chapter 15: Her uncle is something special
Li Yaoguang was extremely shocked, his eyes fixed on it.
Seeing this, Cheng Su, who was eating voraciously out of hunger, thought something was wrong. He quickly pulled up his sleeve to cover his eyes, smiled awkwardly at his niece, and did not forget to explain and comfort her that everything was fine.
Li Yaoguang felt sad and hated this kind of mansion more and more. Everyone in the mansion treated their children so harshly. He couldn't help but tremble with concern: "Uncle, are you in pain?"
Facing the gentle questioning from his soft and tender niece, who was almost like his own daughter, how could a man and a father say that he loved her?
It must hurt but it doesn’t hurt!
In order to comfort the child, Cheng Su stopped eating and patted his not-so-thick chest.
"Be a man, this is just a small injury, it's nothing!" Hiss~ It really hurts! I accidentally hit the wound, I'm afraid it will bleed again, right?
Damn old thing, he was so cruel. Even if he was born out of wedlock, he was still my biological son!
Cheng Su suppressed the urge to grin, and tried to force a smile towards Li Yaoguang despite the pain, but Li Yaoguang felt a dull pain in his heart when he saw his almost distorted face.
Knowing that the plan to lure away the old women was not a good one and that there was no time to waste, Li Yaoguang did not want to stay any longer and hurriedly urged her uncle to continue eating. She took out the peach cakes and the kettle and placed them in front of her uncle, then stuffed the duck pear into his empty hand.
"Uncle, please try this pear. I have already washed it. Please keep these things. Please hide them well. Don't let anyone find them. I will find a way to get you some medicine and bring you some delicious food later."
Cheng Su was anxious, and quickly swallowed the cake in his mouth and refused, "Don't worry, Guangjie, don't bother. Your uncle is thick-skinned, it doesn't hurt at all! You can kneel in the ancestral hall for a few days and then go back. You are a child, don't run around for me."
Li Yaoguang strongly disagreed with this and his expression became serious.
"Uncle! You said you'll have to kneel for a few more days. It's hot now. If you don't treat the wound, what if it gets inflamed and gives off a fever? Uncle, please be obedient. In order to save my aunt and Yang'er from worrying, you have to take care of your body. It's settled. I'll send you the medicine later and you can apply it yourself. It's just..."
"But what?"
"But the reason I was able to sneak in before was that I managed to trick the gatekeeper. If I come again, I'm afraid my crime will be exposed. I don't know if they will send people to guard closely. If there is anyone..."
"Don't be afraid of people!" Cheng Su gave his clever niece a thumbs up, and understood the little girl's worries. After thinking for a while, he smiled proudly, raised his hand and pointed at a hollow window on the left wall of the back hall and said to Li Yaoguang, "Don't worry, my son. If you come again, don't go to the front, go around the wall and come to the back hall. Come under this window and wait for the cat to meow three times as a signal. Then your uncle will know and come to the window to meet you."
Li Yaoguang's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he clapped his hands, "Okay, my uncle is still smart!"
Cheng Su was praised by his juniors, and he didn't feel ashamed at all. Instead, he felt proud and complacent. He straightened his back and looked smug.
Li Yaoguang couldn't bear to look at it, and seeing that it was getting late, he was about to leave with his empty lunch box.
Cheng Su stood up and escorted Li Yaoguang out of the ancestral hall. The two of them walked through the courtyard of the ancestral hall, passed a gatehouse, and went through the screen wall, and came to the front yard of the ancestral hall. Seeing the gate in sight, Li Yaoguang nodded and said goodbye. He was about to walk out of the open gate, but was suddenly stopped by his uncle behind him.
"Wait a minute!"
Li Yaoguang turned around and asked, "Uncle, is there anything else?"
Cheng Su scratched his head in embarrassment. "Hey, Sister Guang, didn't you just say that you would give me some delicious food when you gave me medicine?"
Li Yaoguang nodded without doubt, "Yes, yes, does uncle have any instructions?"
Cheng Su laughed, "It's not really an order, um, hehe, um, Guangjie, I want to eat chicken." Li Yaoguang...
Li Yaoguang nodded slowly under her uncle's close gaze.
As she nodded her head, she turned and saw her uncle clapping his hands together and jumping three feet high with joy like a child, without any sign of pain.
Seeing her looking blankly, perhaps realizing his own misconduct, Cheng Su coughed twice belatedly, trying to maintain his dignity as an elder, and then waved his hands repeatedly at Li Yaoguang, urging her, "Okay, Guangjie, hurry up and be careful on the road. Go quickly and come back soon."
Li Yaoguang: "Okay, okay."
...Well, it's confirmed that her uncle is something special!
She wanted to say that uncle was injured and might not be able to eat greasy food, but when she thought of her uncle's happy face like a child just now, Li Yaoguang said nothing and walked away with her head down while picking up the food box.
Damn, it’s just a chicken. If my uncle wants to eat it, buy it!
Li Yaoguang retired after his success, and hurriedly left the ancestral hall. At this moment, the upper courtyard...
The two old women had been pulling Jin Yan outside the yard and were making a big fuss about it. This ridiculous matter was brought to the attention of the mistress of the house. One of them denied it and felt wronged, while the other claimed that she was deceived and refused to give in and demanded an explanation.
As a result, the quarrel reached the mistress, disturbing her peace. The marquis's wife did not ask the reason, but raised her hand and rewarded both sides with ten boards. The three people cried out in grievance. Of course, Li Yaoguang did not know all this and did not want to know.
In order to buy medicine in a hurry, Li Yaoguang did not return to Luyuan, but hurried out of the corner gate. He did not even care about the gaze of Mrs. Zhou behind him, and did not even go back to his own home to put the food box. He just carried it out of the courtyard and went straight to the bustling market where he had shopped before.
She vaguely remembered that there was a medical clinic in the market when she was strolling around the market earlier. After leaving the servants' gathering area of Zhenwei Marquis' Mansion, Li Yaoguang headed straight for the destination.
As for the big clinics and pharmacies with their splendid signs on West Street, she didn't dare go there for the moment.
We went straight to the clinic, where the patient was an old man in his sixties with white hair and beard. He looked kind and was very patient when seeing patients.
Probably because it was the wrong time. There were not many patients inside at this moment. Li Yaoguang waited for the two people in front of her to leave before she sat down in front of the old man. The old man spoke slowly when he saw her.
"Little girl, you look like you are short of energy and blood, and you look like you have just recovered from a serious illness. Come, stretch out your hand and open your mouth so that I can see the coating on your tongue."
Well, needless to say, the old doctor knew at a glance that he was inadequate after Chinese medicine's diagnosis and diagnosis. That old man was either a miracle doctor or an excellent doctor. Li Yaoguang had no doubts and trusted him completely. He did not stretch out his hands or open his mouth, but instead bowed to the old man in a hurry.
"Doctor, I am not here to see a doctor. I am here to see a family member. A family member was treated harshly yesterday. His body is covered with bruises. He has not been seen by a doctor or taken medicine. His face is pale and flushed, and he seems to have a fever, but he is conscious."
Upon hearing this, the old doctor immediately frowned, "With such an injury, why didn't you seek medical advice and wait until today?"
Li Yaoguang was embarrassed and blamed herself when asked, and she stammered, "Xiao, my daughter just discovered it today, so I came to seek medical treatment immediately."
