151. Chapter 151
"Although you didn't say it, you have a lot of pianos and zithers here, so what if I borrow one!" Gu Chongyang said excitedly: "I didn't expect you to be such a stingy person, I just borrowed it, and I didn't pay it back." β
Those kites were collected by the successive heads of the Wang family with a lot of effort, each of them is very precious, and some are still unique, she really dares to open her mouth.
But since she opened her mouth to him, it means that the little girl didn't treat him as an outsider, Wang Jiulang was happy in his heart, but said indifferently on his face: "Which one you like, you can take it." β
"Thank you Jiurou!" Gu Chongyang was overjoyed, hugged the piano and ran away.
Wang Jiulang smiled slightly, and was about to catch up, when his face suddenly changed, and he fell to the ground with his head covered.
The room was dim, Wang Jiulang's face was pale, his lips were full of tooth marks, and he was soaked, as if he had been fished out of water.
He sat blankly, his eyes were desolate, and even cooler than his gaze was his voice: "This time, how long have I been unconscious?" Two hours? Two and a half hours? β
When Ruifeng saw it, his heart ached, and he couldn't bear to say: "It's three hours." β
Jiu Ye loves to be clean, and every time he gets sick, he will immediately ask for water to clean, and then Yun Qingfeng pretends that nothing has happened, and he will do what he has to do. But it's the first time I've been so depressed and hopeless like today.
"Oh, no wonder it's dark." Wang Jiulang sat cross-legged on the bed and stated the facts: "Uncle Ruifeng, my illness can't be cured. Let someone tear down the Limbo Bridge, and tell her that she doesn't have to come to me after the course is over. β
His voice was faint, as if he didn't care.
But Ruifeng felt a dull pain in his heart.
They searched for a long time before they heard that there was a herb in Tianjin that could suppress Jiulang's headaches, so they went and found the medicine, and found that it was indeed very useful.
Jiu Ye was overjoyed, and the whole person seemed to have come to life, especially when facing Miss Gu, he no longer suppressed his feelings like before, but slowly revealed the meaning of closeness.
Unexpectedly, in just a few months, the medicine lost its effect.
Is the heart that the ninth master finally opened to be frozen again?
How can that be!
He had seen the joy of the Ninth Master when he was with Miss Gu, and he had seen the Ninth Master's relaxed smile, how could he be lonely again?
"Ninth Master......" Ruifeng opened his mouth, and found that his voice was choked: "Otherwise, try again, maybe it will be effective......"
"Let someone bring water." Wang Jiulang's face was indifferent, he closed his eyes, and no longer looked at Ruifeng, but there was undoubted resoluteness in his voice.
"Ninth Master!" Ruifeng took a step forward and stood in front of him: "Let Miss Gu treat you, her medical skills are indeed very clever......
Wang Jiulang suddenly opened his eyes, his face was pale, and his eyes were cold: "Don't tell her!" β
His headache is incurable, so many doctors are helpless, he doesn't want her to see him like a wolf, just curled up in the corner like a dog......
Her delicate appearance flashed in her eyes, Wang Jiulang's heart ached, and his luck was suppressed, but he felt his qi and blood surging, and a mouthful of blood spit out of his mouth.
This QiΔ Gu Chongyang is unknown, and she went to Hua Shangshu's house that afternoon.
She didn't go into Valin's house, but came to the back of the house. Directly facing the window of Valin's inner room, there is a small octagonal pavilion.
Gu Chongyang played the lyre in the pavilion, which was the mark of the rain.
At first, the sound was small, but then the music grew louder.
The maid next to Valin saw her young lady sitting by the window listening attentively, very quiet.
"Miss, do you want a snack?" The maid brought the pastry over.
Valin glanced at her and made a shushing motion: "Don't make noise." β
These two short words made Mrs. Hua cry with joy, and she covered her mouth for fear of scaring her daughter.
It's been two months, and my daughter has spoken for the first time.
Hua Rong was even more excited, clenched his fists tightly, and looked at his sister listening carefully, his eyes were also red.
At the end of the song, Gu Chongyang met with Mrs. Hua, and as soon as he saw Mrs. Hua, he took her hand and said gratefully: "Sister Ling has spoken, Miss Gu, Sister Ling has hope, you saved Sister Ling'er's life." β
Mrs. Hua was too excited, Gu Chongyang smiled comfortingly at her, and then turned her head and asked Hua Rong: "Master Hua, you tell me the situation carefully." β
Hua Rong nodded, comforting his mother while detailing Valin's reaction.
Gu Chongyang listened very carefully.
Valin is not disgusted, and she likes this song very much, she is very happy.
This song was hummed to her by Master when she was in the Grange. Master liked this piece very much and often hummed it to her, and after listening to it a few times, she began to try to compose it, but she didn't expect it to actually be composed. The master was surprised and delighted, and even praised her for her talent, and hummed several very beautiful tunes, and she composed them one by one.
The imprint of this rain is pure, fresh and elegant, just like under the eaves after the rain, the dripping rain hits people's hearts, making people immersed in the fresh world after the rain, with the music reverie is infinite, people can't help but calm down and listen to the raindrops.
Since Valin is not afraid of the sound of wind and rain, she thinks she should not be afraid of the sound of this music. It turned out exactly what she thought, and it was very exciting.
The first step has been taken, and she believes that soon Valin will be able to open its heart and accept her.
Hua Rong asked eagerly: "Miss Gu, does Sister Ling'er's reaction mean that there is hope for her illness?" β
Looking at his expectant eyes, Gu Chongyang nodded with a smile: "Don't worry, Master Hua, Sister Ling will definitely get better, I'm sure." β
Hua Rong was very solemn, walked in front of Gu Chongyang and bent down and took a deep look: "Miss Gu's great kindness, Hua Rong will never forget." β
Sister Ling is the treasure in the palm of the whole family, he made his sister sick like this, a heart has long been tortured by guilt, Sister Ling's illness is not good for a day, he can't forgive himself for a day. Now that Sister Ling has hope of recovery, Miss Gu not only saved Sister Ling, but also saved him.
The next day, Gu Chongyang went to Wang's house to take classes, and Ruifeng told her that Wang Jiulang has been very busy recently, and she can just go back directly after the class is over, and there is no need to go to Wang Jiulang to report the situation.
Gu Chongyang asked him, "What is Jiulang busy with?" β
Looking at her bright face and clear big eyes, Ruifeng felt sour in his heart, and said in a low voice: "Jiulang has entered the palace several times this month, and the emperor has the intention of establishing a prince." β
It turned out to be such a big deal.
It is related to the country's social affairs, and Gu Chongyang will not ask any more. It just so happens that she has to treat Valin in the past few days, and the time is very tight every day, and when she is busy with this time, she will go to Wang Jiulang again.
Gu Chongyang used moxibustion to cure Mrs. Lu's facial paralysis in Ruizhu Academy, and later cured the diseases of Lord Lu and Gu Weirui one after another, and gradually became known as a little miracle doctor among his relatives. After she cured Xu Huaiyou's illness and was rewarded by the queen's mother, the magnates of the entire capital knew that there was a young lady with superb medical skills in the Qingyang Hou Mansion, who specialized in treating incurable diseases that others could not cure, and she never failed every time.
Valin is the daughter of Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, and many people have heard of the fact that she has a strange illness and can't see people, and of course she also knows that the doctors are helpless, and they haven't cured her for more than half a year.
Li Chuanji is a judge of the Tai Hospital, and he often goes in and out of Gaomen's mansion, and he feels uncomfortable when he hears others praise Gu Chongyang. The few times he treated people before, he was cured, that was his ability, if he couldn't be cured, it was because the condition was too strict, and no one would blame him.
But since Gu Chongyang appeared, he still treated the disease that he didn't cure, and others would say that he was not good at medical skills and had no ability. He is a court judge, and he wants to go further to be the hospital envoy, and his reputation cannot be flawed. But Gu Chongyang has repeatedly ruined his good deeds, how can he not be angry?
It's the same this time, the eldest lady of the Hua family was also treated by him before, but Miss Hua had a very bad temper and didn't let him get close at all, he forced her to give her a pulse, but she scratched her face. couldn't call the pulse, so he prescribed a prescription according to the situation, and it didn't have much effect if he took it.
Now that Gu Chongyang has gone again, in case she cures the eldest lady of the Hua family, where will his face be in the future?
He made people stare at Washington, and when he saw that the people of the Hua family sent Gu Chongyang out, he was very polite. The next day, Gu Chongyang went again, and when he came out, his expression was quite relaxed.
He couldn't help but feel a sigh in his heart, could it be that Gu Chongyang really had such a great ability to cure Miss Hua, right?
What method did Gu Chongyang use?
Li Chuanji was very anxious, and finally brought a bottle of pills, and soon after picking Gu Chongyang into Washington, he also pretended to go to Washington.
Li Chuanji naturally wouldn't say that he was here to peep at Gu Chongyang, he said: "Tai Hospital has developed a new drug, which specializes in treating people who are frightened and refreshed, I thought that Miss Hua's illness is not yet cured, this medicine may be useful, so I came over to take a look." β
Hua Rong was grateful: "Thank you Li Yuan for thinking about it, the situation of the sister is much better than before." β
Li Chuanji was depressed, but his face made a surprised look: "Which doctor cured it?" β
"It's the fourth lady of the Gu family, although she has not recovered, she has already shown signs of recovery." Hua Rong said: "Now Miss Gu is at home, and she is treating her sister." β
Li Chuanji made a look of eagerness for knowledge and said: "Miss Gu's medical skills are superb and admirable, I want to ask Miss Gu face to face what method she used, I wonder if Gongzi can take me to see Miss Gu?" β
"Naturally, you can."
Hua Rong took Li Chuanji, bypassed Valin's courtyard, and walked towards the back, and there were pleasant and beautiful tunes floating with the breeze. Li Chuanji couldn't help but secretly admire, the Shang Shujia is really different, even the music is fresher and better than elsewhere.
Turning the corner, Li Chuanji saw a little girl in a goose yellow skirt playing the kite in the octagonal pavilion in the garden.
Li Chuanji couldn't help but be stunned, isn't this Gu Chongyang? Why is she playing?
Hua Rong lowered his voice and said: "Li Yuanju, Miss Gu is ingenious and came up with music therapy to treat the younger sister, since I inquired about her piano music, the whole person of the dormitory sister has calmed down a lot. β
Li Chuanji was shocked: "Then Miss Hua is not afraid of meeting people now, and she is not afraid of going out of the house?" β
"I haven't healed yet, and I'm still afraid of people." Hua Rong looked at Gu Chongyang with burning eyes, revealing a little sincerity: "But I believe that Miss Gu will definitely be able to cure my sister's illness." β
Li Chuanji looked at the window that was exposed, and couldn't help but want to laugh out loud. Music therapy, that's a real thing! This Gu Chongyang didn't even prescribe prescriptions or take medicine, just by playing the piano, he wanted to cure Miss Hua's strict illness, it was crazy!
The daughter of the dignified marquis, without talent and virtue, has no reputation and is not obvious, in order to invite fame, even the piano worker Qu Niang has done such a thing, which is really embarrassing.
The most despicable thing is that she actually uses the name of a doctor, isn't this a smear for the doctor?
Gu Chongyang had no real ability, and Li Chuanji breathed a sigh of relief. There was a surge of anger in his heart, such a person was worthy of being called a doctor, and the Hua family also treated him as a guest, which was ridiculous.
Gu Chongyang's delicate and pretty piano recitals are healing people? It's obvious that he wants to seduce the eldest son of the Hua family. She is a person who has withdrawn from her family, and her reputation has been ruined, can people with good family backgrounds still look up to her? What's more, there is an eldest lady in Ruizhu Academy above her who presses her, and I heard that the eldest lady is a top talented girl, and she worships in the name of Mrs. Baozhen.
Gu Chongyang clearly knew that he didn't have a good marriage, and it was shameless to approach Mr. Hua in the name of treating Miss Hua.
The widowed and eldest daughter have no one to raise them, and their conduct is really worrying.
As a judge of the Tai Hospital, how could he let her step on the name of the Tai Hospital?
Li Chuanji remembered that he had been to the Qingyang Hou Mansion a few times before, and the new fourth lady in the second room was the daughter of the Nanning Boge family, with a gentle and virtuous personality, and she was very kind to people and things, and she happened to be conditioning her body recently, maybe she could come forward to discipline Gu Chongyang.
After making up his mind, Li Chuanji went to Gu's house.
Ge Bilian's brows furrowed, her face was not good-looking, and Mama Ge gently persuaded on the side: "Madam, only after drinking the medicine and recuperating your body can you conceive a little son." β
"Gu Zhanming, that waste, has no ability, why should I give him a son!" Ge Bilian's eyes were red with anger: "He blames me for not being able to give birth and wants to take a concubine, so let him accept it, I will break off with him from now on, and no one cares about anyone." β
"My good lady, what the fourth master said is nothing but angry words. As long as you are pregnant with a little son, won't all the problems of QiΔ be solved? The fourth master has lost his official position now, and he is not a ghost of the fourth lady, and after a few years, the current servant of the ministry has moved his position, and the fourth master spends some money to do one or two, and then asks the long house to help, so he can naturally find a real shortage. You take medicine well, give birth to a little son, and raise yourself well, and after more than ten years, you will be a Hanlin master, you will wait to be an old feudal monarch. β
Mama Ge persuaded her, and Ge Bilian was finally willing to take the medicine.
The bitter medicine entered her stomach, and Ge Bilian panicked, hating the fourth master for not having the ability, and hating Gu Chongyang for causing the fourth master to lose his official position.
The subordinate suddenly came to report that the Li Yuan had come to the verdict, Ge Bilian pinched a candied fruit and put it in her mouth, got up and went to the outer room.
Li Chuanji got straight to the point and told Ge Bilian what Gu Chongyang had done, and finally said: "...... The hairpin in the house is a family, the family style is innocent, and you must not lose face because of a fourth lady. I, a bystander, can't stand it, and the fourth lady, as a mother, should also be disciplined well. β
Ge Bilian hated Gu Chongyang, she felt uncomfortable when she heard Gu Chongyang's name, she was originally upright, but after hearing it, an idea suddenly popped up.
"Court Li's judgment, the fourth lady of our family is ignorant, I told her a few times, but it is useless, after all, it is difficult to be a stepmother." Ge Bilian stretched her voice and sighed: "Before, she was eye-to-eye with the Marquis of Linjiang, I knew that she was inappropriate, but I didn't expect her to climb up to Shangshu Gongzi now, and she was lucky, every time she went out in the name of treating people, the old lady of the long house was blinded by her and knew nothing." I've always wanted to expose what she did, but I haven't had a chance, it's really ......"
Li Chuanji heard that this voice was a little interesting, so he said: "The more she is like this, the more the fourth lady should expose her behavior, lest one day the Gu family's family style be ruined by her." β
"Li Yuan's judgment reminds us." Ge Bilian seemed embarrassed: "It's time to find a way to let everyone see her ugly face clearly, but that Gu Chongyang knows medical skills, it is not so easy to subdue her, and there is no competent person around me......"
"If the fourth lady needs it, just give it a command." Li Chuanji dismounted in order to pull Gu Chongyang off the horse, and he didn't even care about his face.
"Since that's the case, it's all up to Court Li's verdict."
Ge Bilian and Li Chuanji looked at each other and showed a tacit smile.
Time was unhurried, and another three days passed. In the past three days, every afternoon, Gu Chongyang went to the small pavilion opposite the Valin window to play the piano.
On the third day, when Gu Chongyang was playing, he saw that the gap in the window opposite had become larger, and Valin hid his face behind the window and looked at her secretly.
Gu Chongyang pretended not to know, so he just played the zither without distraction, and after playing, he put away the piano and left.
And so it went on for another two days.
It seems that the two sides have an agreement, and when the time comes, Gu Chongyang will come to play the piano, and Valin will hide behind the window to listen.
On the sixth day, before Gu Chongyang came, Valin had already moved a stool and waited by the window.
On this day, Gu Chongyang was late, and Valin seemed a little anxious, walking around the house and couldn't sit down for a moment. When the familiar footsteps sounded outside the window, Valin Hula pushed the window open. Seeing that it was Gu Chongyang who came, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
Valin's action made Gu Chongyang overjoyed, she knew that her efforts in the past few days had not been in vain, and things had finally made a breakthrough.
Valin sat obediently in front of the window, listening carefully to Gu Chongyang's playing, quiet and well-behaved.
Gu Chongyang still pretended not to know, and didn't look at her, only plucked the strings seriously.
At the end of the song, Gu Chongyang didn't leave as before, but raised his head and smiled at Valin, and winked mischievously.
Hualing didn't expect Gu Chongyang to look at him, so he was startled and hurriedly hid to the side.
She stood against the wall and held her breath for a long time, but when she didn't hear any movement, she quietly stuck her head out of the window and looked out of the window. It's already empty outside, where is Gu Chongyang's figure?
Valin looked at it for a while, as if relieved, but also a little lost.
She liked the window more and more.
On the seventh day, after Gu Chongyang finished playing the piano, she went to smile at Valin again, not only did she not hide, but she also smiled at Gu Chongyang.
Her smile made Gu Chongyang's heart lighten. Originally, she was only four or five points sure that she could cure Valin's illness, but now she has ten points.
The people who served Valin in the room were very happy, and everyone saw the hope of Valin's recovery. Mrs. Hua cried with joy, Hua Rong clenched her fists excitedly, and looked at Gu Chongyang's eyes a little more eagerly.
Except for his sister, he rarely had contact with girls with foreign surnames, and he was secretly moved by the ship the year before last. During this time, they saw each other every day, which made him admire him even more.
He knew that she had been dispossessed, but he didn't care. As long as she is willing to be with him and smile at him every day, he is willing to do anything.
Wait, when his sister is well, he will reveal his heart to her.
Hua Rong suppressed the throbbing in his heart and lowered his head.
After the first few temptations, Valin's love xΓΉ had a breakthrough, and the next day at the end of the playing, Gu Chongyang suddenly said to Valin: "Sister Ling, today is the eighth time I have played the piano for you." In the past eight days, I have played for you every day, in fact, I really hope that you can come out and accompany me, after all, I am very lonely. Even if you don't want to come out, even if you talk to me, it's good, but I'm disappointed, you don't want to pay attention to me, it seems that you don't like me, right? β
Valin bit her lip and didn't speak, her face was tangled and nervous.
"In that case, I won't come to please you." Gu Chongyang sighed, very disappointed: "I promised Mrs. Hua to accompany you for ten days, and there will be two days tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." Two days later, I won't bother Sister Ling again. β
Gu Chongyang left, and Valin stood in front of the window and stared at the pavilion for a long time. The maid called her, and she should not, she became a little restless, and she ate very little, either staring at the gazebo in a daze, or walking around the house, as if she was sick again, and it was not as quiet as a few days ago.
This change made Mrs. Hua and Hua Rong's hearts rise again, and the hope that they had finally seen seemed to be shattered again.
The next day, Gu Chongyang came to Washington, Hua Rong was waiting for her at the door, and as soon as they met, she couldn't wait to ask: "Miss Gu, after today and tomorrow, you really won't come to our house again?" β
"Of course not, I deliberately said it to Sister Ling, just to test her reaction." Gu Chongyang saw that he was very anxious, so he said, "Don't worry, Sister Ling is very good and will recover." β
Hua Rong breathed a sigh of relief and said embarrassedly: "It's me who is too reckless." β
"Hua Gongzi is also concerned about chaos."
Seeing Mrs. Hua, Gu Chongyang asked her about Valin's reaction after she left yesterday, and after understanding the situation, Gu Chongyang said: "Madam, according to my observation, Sister Ling is very interested in Qin. When I leave today, leave the piano here, and you use the piano as bait as you can, and try to persuade her to get out of the house. β
"This ......" Mrs. Hua said worriedly: "Miss Gu, it's not that we don't cooperate, it's just that Sister Ling'er's original situation was bad yesterday, and in the past, in order to get her out of the house, we tried all kinds of methods, and in the end we didn't succeed." If Sister Ling wants to get out of the house, she can only use force, but in that case, Sister Ling will be stimulated and her condition will only worsen. β
She loves her daughter and is reluctant to do so, although she loves Hualing, but she doesn't know that Hualing's condition is getting worse and worse, and there are reasons for her indulgence.
Gu Chongyang is a doctor, she will be soft-hearted but will not back down, she said bluntly: "Sister Ling, this is a heart disease, and she must go out." I understand Mrs.'s motherly love for her daughter, but Sister Ling's situation, if it is up to her, her illness will never be cured, let her go out, like a normal girl is really good for her. β
Mrs. Hua clenched her veil tightly when she heard this, but did not say anything.
