Geng Xingchen was startled and immediately grabbed Geng Xingshuang's hand. Geng Xingshuang's heart beat much faster. The two of them were closest to the inner room, but Geng Xingyu rushed outside as if he was crazy.
She immediately pulled Geng Xingchen to avoid it, but Geng Xingyu was very fast. Just when Geng Xingshuang thought they were about to be hit, Geng Xingyu bypassed the two of them and headed directly towards Geng Cheng who was sitting at the top. Hit it.
Geng Cheng was knocked backwards. Fortunately, there was a wall behind him. He held his body and wanted to push Geng Xingyu away, but he didn't dare to touch her face that was full of sores, nor did he dare to touch anything on her body. parts, including clothing.
Without hesitation, Geng Cheng kicked him forward.
Geng Xingyu was kicked and fell backwards, and the back of his head was about to hit the ground.
Aunt Peng who ran out later saw this scene and shouted in horror, "Yu'er!"
At that moment, Geng Xingshuang reacted very quickly, ran two steps forward, and supported Geng Xingyu who was about to fall to the ground.
However, Geng Cheng's strength was really strong. She helped him a little, but she couldn't completely stop Geng Xingyu from falling backwards. Fortunately, Geng Xingchen and Jinzhan came to help.
When Aunt Peng saw that her daughter hadn't been hit, she ran over and hugged Geng Xingyu, crying bitterly, as if she was surviving a disaster.
Everyone present couldn't help but feel pitiful when they looked at it, and some even became sad.
For example, Geng Xingchen, who had always had trouble getting along with Geng Xingyu, and Geng Xingshuang, who had always wanted to stay away from his second wife.
"Why don't you come quickly and take her back? Where's the doctor? Didn't you invite the doctor?"
Geng Cheng was furious at first, and then yelled loudly.
Speaking of doctors, Geng Xingshuang hurriedly looked towards the inner room and saw old doctor Xu and Xu Lianyang's grandparents walking out of the inner room one after another.
Geng Xingchen pushed the old doctor Xu away when he was checking his pulse and ran out. The old doctor Xu was old and weak. He almost fell down when she pushed him like this. Fortunately, Xu Lianyang helped him in time.
"In reply to this master, I forgive my grandfather and grandson for their lack of talent and lack of knowledge. They are unable to cure the illness of the girl in your house. Please ask for someone else to be wise. Take your leave!"
Dr. Xu didn't even ask for the consultation fee, but saw Geng Cheng's gloomy face and left directly.
This is not the first doctor to say this.
No matter how angry and angry Geng Cheng was, there was nothing he could do.
Geng Xingshuang and Geng Xingchen also hurriedly left. Although they sympathized with Geng Xingyu, they could not intervene at the moment.
Jinbao, who was wandering around the Yinghe Courtyard, had already brought the Xu family's descendants to the Qingcui Courtyard. Because of her kick to Geng Cheng last night, Geng Xingshuang was worried that if she let Geng Cheng see her again today, she would remind him of what happened last night and embarrass him. She, therefore, did not let Jin Bao enter the yard.
"It seems that the second brother has invited all the doctors nearby, and even went to Chaoxing Street to invite Dr. Xu over."
Geng Xingshuang asked people to serve tea for the Xu family's grandparents and grandchildren. She was entertaining the Xu family's grandparents and grandchildren in the hall. Ruan and Jiang came out when they heard the commotion. Geng Wen also came back from outside. Geng Yan heard that his wife and daughter were both here. Here, they also came over, and Geng Wen couldn't help but sigh when he learned that the Xu family's ancestors and grandchildren were here to see Geng Xingyu.
Geng Cheng is hateful, but Geng Xingyu is innocent.
Dr. Xu just kept saying that his medical skills were not good and he could not do anything about Geng Xingyu's illness.
Xu Lianyang blinked at Geng Xingshuang.
Geng Xingshuang knew that she had something to say to him, so she said to her parents, "I'll take Sister Xu to my house to have a look" and took her away.
Jinbao hurriedly followed, and Geng Xingchen took a look and followed.
Geng Xingshuang saw Geng Xingchen coming, but she didn't say anything. She knew that Geng Xingchen had a tight mouth, and she didn't want to let a word leak out of her mouth that shouldn't have been said.
"Sister Xu, what's wrong?"
"I have never seen the malignant sores on Miss Geng Si's face, but it is not caused by excessive fear, excessive worry, imbalance of yin and yang in the body, and imbalance of the five elements, as the doctors said before."
"What's the reason?" Geng Xingchen asked quickly, "Did you eat something or smell something that caused ringworm?"
generator One by one, they went home to see a doctor in a hurry.
"It's not ringworm."
On this issue, Xu Lianyang is very sure.
"Then what does Sister Xu suspect?" Geng Xingshuang knew that Xu Lianyang must have had some suspicion before telling her.
"It seems that I have eaten something. Of course, it is not the food or pollen that Sister Chen is referring to, but something poisonous. Although the sore has only been there for a day, it should not be eliminated in a short time."
"Fifth sister ate something poisonous? She...she..."
Geng Xingchen was shocked, but suddenly realized that only by doing this, he might be able to escape the Liu family's marriage.
Geng Xingshuang nodded, "The fifth sister suddenly went crazy just now. Is it also caused by that poison?"
Xu Lianyang shook her head and lowered her voice: "My grandfather said that she was just pretending, and her pulse was quite peaceful, not like that. When I just left, I also specifically looked into the eyes of the fourth girl. Her eyes were clear and clear. His eyebrows are clear and his mind is clear."
"Pretending?"
This was something Geng Xingshuang didn't expect.
The reason why Xu Lianyang told Geng Xingshuang this was because Geng Xingyu was her cousin and they lived together. Some things might implicate Geng Xingshuang, so she told her what she noticed to prevent her from being calculated intentionally or unintentionally.
The descendants of the Xu family declined Geng Wen and Ruan's dinner invitation and left with their medicine boxes on their backs.
Geng Xingshuang personally sent the person to Chuihua Gate. Before leaving, Xu Lianyang asked her and Geng Xingchen, "Are you going to watch the dragon boat race tomorrow?"
Geng Xingshuang and Geng Xingchen nodded almost simultaneously, "Of course I want to go."
The Dragon Boat Race, ever since they knew that the Dragon Boat Festival would be held at Luxun River this year, they had been looking forward to it. They would not delay the lively scene they had always wanted to see because of the second room.
"Fifth sister, why did you run to him!"
In the evening, when the crowd finally dispersed and no doctor was invited, Geng Shu frowned and asked.
Geng Xingyu had sores on his face. He asked his uncle to get the medicine.
The medicine grew like weeds in the mountains behind my grandfather's house. Occasionally, children in the village accidentally took it and soon developed malignant sores on their faces. The first child had malignant sores, and everyone thought they would be cured soon. , but who knew that the poisonous sore would never go away, and it had been on his face for five or six years before it gradually receded. Over the years, the villagers found out the pattern. If this poisonous weed is eaten raw, it will be very toxic, but If you boil it and drink the juice, the toxicity will be almost halved, and the sores will be gone in three years.
As for why this characteristic was discovered, it was because a woman in the village wanted to harm the girl who had charmed her son, so she secretly put poisonous weeds into the medicine jar where she was making medicine while she was cold, and boiled it with the medicine for the girl. Drink it.
At that time, the girl almost sought death, and later she thought it would take five or six years to recover. Unexpectedly, within three years, her face was back to its original appearance.
No one except the people in my grandfather’s village knew about the poisonous weed. The village chief did not let the villagers talk about it because he was afraid that someone would use the poisonous weed to harm others.
If the poisonous weeds hadn't grown again, they would have been cleared away long ago.
Now, this poisonous weed is still used to harm people, no, it is used to save people.
It's just that the poisonous weed has a strong smell, especially when it's boiled. The smell can only be masked by boiling it with medicinal materials, so hanging yourself and asking a doctor to boil the medicine is part of the plan.
However, Geng Shumin knew in his heart that this step was not necessary. The reason why his fifth sister wanted to do this was because their father would regret his previous decision when he saw that his daughter was about to commit suicide. Will change my mind.
Of course, the ending is always disappointing.
"You're not asking me to pretend to be crazy or stupid. Saying this will make him give up on sending me to the Liu family."
"My aunt told me to make you more emotional. Because you can't keep the same expression all the time, you might as well have more expressive expressions. After all, which beautiful girl sees these things on her face. If you don't feel emotional, just pretend It's okay to be crazy, but why do you have to run in front of him? If it weren't for Sixth Sister today, your head would be blown."
Geng Shuyan's tone was stern and his expression was tense. The childlike innocence on his face seemed to have completely faded in the past few days.
