Sure enough, regarding the fact that Lao Li brought five hundred taels of silver to buy medicine, Gu Xin has not mentioned it again since then. When she went home every day, Gu Mingqin still let her report the situation in the hospital to Gu Xin one by one. Every time Gu Xin listened, he nodded frequently, plus a sentence "In the future, you don't have to report these things to me, it's enough to make your own decisions", Rao is so, habit becomes natural, Gu Mingqin still can't help but tell each other one by one.

Compared with Lao Li, Gu Jiadong came back ahead of schedule with people, and this time when he came back, Gu Mingqin found that this third uncle had changed too much compared with before. Not only when it comes to the variety and quality of medicinal materials, but also how to bargain and how to choose, you can also tell one, two, three. This made Gu Mingqin can't believe it, is this still the nerd third uncle who "doesn't listen to things outside the window and only reads sage books"?

Especially when he heard that Gu Jiawei accidentally set fire to the medicine warehouse and burned most of the medicinal materials, in addition to scolding Gu Jiawei for not being successful enough, he also reprimanded Gu Mingqin, such a big matter, without waiting for him to come back and discuss it well, he sent someone to the most expensive medicinal materials collection and sale place. Gu Mingqin couldn't, so he could only tell him with a bitter face that there was really no way, there was an urgent need for medicinal materials in the medical hall, so he could only pay a high price and buy the medicinal materials back first, after all, the business of the medical hall was the most important.

After listening to Gu Mingqin's explanation, Gu Jiadong didn't say anything more, just urged his companions to set off again. Gu Mingqin persuaded him for a long time before leaving him behind. Gu Mingqin told him that the third uncle had been tired of traveling and finally came back, and he should take a good rest and reunite with his family. When it comes back, see how much and what he buys, and then make a decision on whether to continue to buy it.

When Gu Mingqin saw the third uncle's eager attitude, he couldn't help but smile with relief. It seemed that the decision to involve them in the day-to-day affairs of the hospital was definitely a wise move. At the very least, let them know that the operation of the medical center is struggling, and their monthly routine did not fall from the sky. Listening to the third uncle talking eloquently, telling the strange things along the way with great interest, Gu Mingqin couldn't help laughing, it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books, this is true.

Feeling at the change of the third uncle and thinking of another person, Gu Mingqin felt a headache. This person is none other than the second uncle, Gu Jiawei.

According to the report of the surveillance personnel arranged by Gu Xin before, since that day, Gu Jiawei was carried home, and in the past few days, he has been lying on the bed and scolding, scolding Gu Xin, scolding Gu Mingqin, and even the dead Gu Jialiang and Gu Jing have not let go. Gu Xin knew about his behavior, and jumped to his feet angrily, if Gu Mingqin hadn't stopped him, maybe he would have run over again and teach this unscrupulous son a good lesson.

Gu Xin's suggestion was to leave him alone, not give a penny, and let him fend for himself. Gu Mingqin understood that this was not going to work, especially at this moment.

Gu Jiawei was already very close to Chen Jinxian, and now kicking him out of the house will undoubtedly push him towards the Chen family, and it will also deepen his hatred. If it doesn't work out, it will allow him and Chen Jinxian to join forces and completely collapse the Gu family. This Gu Jiawei, to put it mildly, is a wine bag and rice bag, as long as you give him money and let him enjoy himself, no matter what kind of brother and enemy he is, he will still be called a brother and a brother.

Fortunately, according to the information obtained, during this time, Chen Jinxian did not go to him, and he still had a chance. So that afternoon, seeing that the hospital was in order, the three doctors performed their duties and took care of their guests, and after giving some advice to Dr. Zhao, they left the hospital and went to Gu Jiawei's house alone.

"Mingqin?" Seeing Gu Mingqin, Gu Jiawei's wife Xu was a little surprised.

"Second aunt." Gu Mingqin blessed her body, stood up and said, "I'll come to see the second uncle, I don't know if it's inconvenient?" ”

Xu Shi frowned, as if he was a little hesitant, but when he saw Gu Mingqin standing at the door, he was calm and relaxed, and he didn't mean to leave, but said, "He is resting, or I will take you in." Gu Mingqin nodded lightly, smiling, and Xu had no choice but to say, "You come with me." As he spoke, he passed her and walked forward with her.

"Thank you, second aunt." Gu Mingqin expressed her gratitude and owed herself again.

Hearing this, Xu Shi was stunned, couldn't help but turn around, and looked at the girl again, the girl also looked at herself, smiling slightly, kind and natural, making people susceptible to infection, but Xu Shi couldn't laugh at this time, thinking of her husband's temper, and sighed again.

"Ever since he was beaten by his uncle and returned home, he has always had a bad temper and gets angry at every turn. The dishes, dishes, teapots and cups at home are not known how many have been broken. When walking on the road, Xu introduced the situation to Gu Mingqin, and his tone contained some complaints.

Gu Mingqin said with a smile: "Uncle was angry last time, after all, so many medicinal materials were all burned, and the most important thing for the medical hall to open is the medicinal materials." The second uncle was too careless this time......"

"Mingqin, the second aunt understands that there are some words, as your second aunt, you shouldn't say them; But your second uncle ...... There are some things that the second aunt has to say. Xu Shi spoke cautiously, observed Gu Mingqin, and saw her bow slightly, before continuing, "Your second uncle's situation, you don't need to tell me, you also know." Doesn't know anything, isn't it asking for trouble to let him manage the medicine store? ”

"Then you say, what should I do, or do I give you money every month, let you get it for nothing, and let the second uncle go to do nonsense and linger in the flowers?" Gu Mingqin asked her rhetorically. In an instant, Xu's face was particularly ugly, he frowned, and looked at himself, as if he was dissatisfied. Gu Mingqin ignored it, but continued, "A few days ago, the second uncle was still telling me that he would drive the second uncle out of the house and not give him a penny, leaving him to fend for himself......"

"What?" Xu Shi was shocked, covered his mouth, and instinctively grabbed the clothes of the people around him, "Mingqin ......"

"Second aunt, don't worry, I've already persuaded my uncle, it won't be like this for the time being. After all, we are a family, and he is my second uncle after all. Gu Mingqin said comfortingly. As if he had taken a reassuring pill, Xu slowly let go of his hand and breathed a long sigh of relief. Gu Mingqin changed his words at this time, "However, if the second uncle is so stubborn and idle, I can only obey my uncle, completely separate the family, and let the second uncle figure out his own way." ”

"Mingqin, you can't do this, you just said, we are a family......"

"It's because of the family that I can endure him again and again and give him a chance. If it weren't for this relationship, I wouldn't have had to open my uncle's mouth, and I would have kicked him out of the house. Gu Mingqin said without scruples. Seeing the middle-aged woman on the other side frowning, looking at herself in disbelief. Gu Mingqin retracted his gaze and nodded slightly, "I know that my grandfather told my father when he was dying that he must take good care of the second uncle and the third uncle, and the Gu family cannot be separated." So all along, Father has been trying to support you as much as possible. The business of the hospital is busy, and my father has no skills to take care of you, so he can only give money every month. What are you doing, especially the second and third uncles, where is the money spent, there is no time to ask, in the long run, resulting in the current situation, I have to say that my father is responsible. ”

"If the business of the clinic is still the same as before, with a constant stream of people every day, I don't mind supporting my two uncles. But the problem is, not anymore. Gu Mingqin said, frowning, "Daddy went suddenly, in the first two months, I was almost busy with my father's funeral, and the hospital had to be temporarily closed. It was only reopened a month ago. The opening is the opening, but my father died, and the gold-lettered signboard of the medical hall is gone, if you want to play the Gu's signboard out again, so that everyone in a radius of 100 miles knows about it, it is not an overnight thing. ”

"Second aunt, I won't hide it from you, the hospital has reopened until now, and it has not completely reached the balance of payments, and our family's current expenses are still the balance that my father has saved over the years. Second aunt, in this case, how could I possibly come up with so much money to support a lazy person who has nothing to do? Gu Mingqin was straightforward and not polite at all, only saying that Xu's face was red and white for a while, and he was embarrassed.

Gu Mingqin ignored it, and just continued: "The medical hall has just made some improvements, and this kind of thing happened. Second aunt, do you know how much money I spent to re-purchase those burned medicinal herbs? Five hundred taels of silver. ”

"Huh?" Xu screamed in surprise and hurriedly covered his mouth again.

Gu Mingqin put his hand down, looked ahead, and sighed: "The cost of the medicine field this year is not good, before this, I have already asked the third uncle to take someone to buy medicinal materials." Originally, it was enough to buy it once, but because of the second uncle's carelessness, I would have to spend an extra penny......" Looking back at the woman, Gu Mingqin continued, "Second sister-in-law, do you know that at the beginning, I meant to let you pay for the money." Whoever destroys, who compensates, is fair and reasonable. ”

"Mingqin ......" Xu Shi shouted in a panicked voice. Five hundred taels of silver, how could you possibly take it out yourself?

"Second aunt, don't be nervous, don't worry, I just said casually, I won't let you pay." Gu Mingqin patted her hand and comforted.

"Mingqin ......" Xu burst into tears, and he was moved and didn't know what to say.

Let go of her, Gu Mingqin continued again: "I mentioned the third uncle just now, I don't know if you noticed, he turned out to be the same as the second uncle, he also had nothing to do, he locked himself in the room every day, chanted poems against him, and didn't ask about the world. But what about now, it's not about going out of the house and helping the hospital. When I came back this time, I found that he was completely different from the original. Since the third uncle can change, why can't the second uncle? ”

"Mingqin, your two uncles are different, your second uncle is ......" Xu was about to explain, but Gu Mingqin was unwilling to give her a chance—
