Gu Qingzi stood in front of Gu Loong and looked at Lee Chunqiao, whose chest was no longer heaving. She felt pity for her. Relying on a child to tie up a man was the most foolish thing to do, not to mention using her life to threaten a man.
For now, aside from whether Jia Faang had any feelings for her, hadn't she thought about what would happen to her mother after she died?
He felt sorry for Auntie Zuo. Although Madame Zuo had a bad temper, she hadn't done anything wrong, so he couldn't help but feel sorry for her.
No matter what, she couldn't let Gu Loong, who hadn't even gotten married and had a wife and child, to carry a life on his body. If this kind of rumor was spread to the end, she didn't know what would happen, even if Gu Loong only saved Lee Chunqiao, but if it spread out, who knows how Gu Loong would react. No, she had to choke this rumor to death in the bud.
However, she had to change her mind and take a step forward in this matter. Gu Qingzi looked at Madame Zuo who was crying seriously, her voice calm as she said, "If I can save Lee Chunqiao, how about you give me five taels of silver?"
Madame Zuo rolled her eyes a few times, then suddenly fell down crying, "I knew it was you who was jealous of my daughter. Madame Zuo rolled her eyes a few times, then suddenly cried," I knew it was you who was jealous of my daughter.
She patted her chest, looking as if she was angry from crying, "I know you. Actually, you want to use this opportunity to take revenge. You want to kill my daughter!"
"This is a weasel wishing a chicken a happy new year, what kind of heart are you in?"
No matter how good Gu Qingzi's temperament was, after being told this by Madame Zuo, her face also turned cold. She snorted coldly, "Do you want to save me or not? I'm not sure if I can save you or not, but after a while, when that happens, you'll die completely. You can't even save me if you want to."
All of them looked at each other with astonished expressions, as if they had not expected that Lee Chunqiao was still alive.
Shen Yi stood on a tree in the distance, looking down at the bustling crowd. There was a dazzling person in the crowd — Gu Qingzi, unconsciously, her eyes softened. She looked at Shen Yi with a smile at the corner of her mouth.
Madame Zuo thought for a while. This daughter of hers wasn't worth 5 taels of silver, so she thought for a long time. If she had to find someone to send her off, she might as well save this daughter of hers.
Now, if he could protect his daughter and children, then she would have a chance to live on in the future and would have a chance. But these five silver taels were the living expenses of their Lee Family for more than half a year, how could he bear to part with it?
A pained expression surfaced on her face. Besides, it was better not to say that she couldn't cure him. If she couldn't, then the 5 taels of silver she had was wasted. Moreover, she had never heard that Miss Gu knew how to treat a doctor.
It couldn't be that she wanted to use this opportunity to coax her and swindle money out of her, right?
Gu Qingzi took in all of Madame Zuo's emotions and couldn't help but reveal a mocking smile, "Aunt Zuo, don't worry about my bad treatment. But now, I know you're still unwilling to pay. Ten taels of silver! If I can't cure it, I don't need money! " Gu Qingzi said the last two sentences seriously, "We are all here as your witnesses, what are you afraid of?"
Madame Zuo thought about it for a moment and decided she might as well. "Alright, you have to save my daughter."
"Remember, the treatment is done. Double the silver!" Gu Qingzi repeated her words, "Aunt Zuo, are you listening carefully? Do you remember? "
Madame Zuo's face alternated between red and white. "Remember, 10 taels of silver."
Gu Qingzi nodded. "Then please turn around. I will touch Lee Chunqiao later. Auntie, please help block them."
A few women walked out from the crowd to block them. Madame Zuo looked around at the crowd. The men had their backs to Gu Qingzi, fearing that their wives would catch hold of them. They were even more afraid of being pestered by Madame Zuo.
The doctor stood to the side and listened to Gu Qingzi's words clearly. He looked at Gu Qingzi mockingly and said, "This old man has been a doctor for more than fifty years, has been knowledgeable about medicine at the age of three, and has never seen a doctor even at the age of ten. If this old man says he can't be treated, then how can anyone save him?"
"Whether I'm boasting or not, the doctor will know when I save Lee Chunqiao." Gu Qingzi smiled, completely ignoring the doctor's mockery. He knew that the doctors of this era all had their own pride, but there was really no need to care about it.
"Hmph, then I want to see how the young lady is treated." The doctor harrumphed and started to walk in the direction of Gu Qingzi.
"Even if you are a senior, the rules can't be bad, right? Since when has there been no rules in our line of work?" Gu Qingzi stopped unbuttoning Lee Chunqiao's clothes. With a cold expression, she said, "We're all practicing medicine together, and we're all avoiding each other. Don't you know about this, doctor?"
"Obstinate!" The doctor was stuck with Gu Qingzi's words and didn't know what to say. After a long time, only two words came out of his mouth, but he did indeed stop his steps.
Gu Qingzi glanced over and then continued to untie Lee Chunqiao's clothes, her voice cold, "I don't know whether it's pedantic or not, all I know is that the rules are the rules and that people must obey them. Moreover, this is a skill used to earn money, so if you see it, I'll eat it."
This time, the doctor had nothing more to say.
Looking at Lee Chunqiao's slightly protruding stomach, Gu Qingzi did not pay any attention to the doctor. She sighed and stretched out both of her hands to touch her pulse, taking out the foreign body in her mouth. Then, she began to perform cardiac resuscitation and artificial respiration, this was the most basic method of first aid after drowning.
In the time it took to make a cup of tea, it had already passed.
Gu Qingzi's arms were trembling nonstop. Her face was terrifyingly pale and she was sweating profusely.
"Little girl, can you do it?" The doctor smiled and stroked his beard, "This old and useless one has already said that my diagnosis cannot be wrong. This person cannot be saved."
As soon as the doctor finished speaking, Lee Chunqiao started coughing violently, spitting out puddles after puddles of water, her eyes opened wide in confusion. Gu Qingzi moved her trembling hands to open her eyelids and found that Lee Chunqiao's pupils were focused.
Looking at her swollen palms and her trembling arms, Gu Qingzi smiled. She had finally managed to save him.
Jia Faang was actually conflicted in his heart, but after he came back to life, he was more afraid that Lee Chunqiao would tell him the truth. While he was thinking about what to do next, he heard the surrounding people clamoring.
