248 Find My Cousin First
Gong Lingyu blinked her eyes in confusion when she saw that Gu Qingxue was not saying anything. “Sister Gu, is there anything wrong?”
“There’s nothing wrong. I was worried that the medicine might be poisonous. If you keep taking pain-relieving pills, it will affect your body. However, the pills you take are made of top-grade herbs. They won’t affect your body too much, nor will they affect my future treatment.” She put the bottle of priceless pills back into place and returned it to Gong Lingyu.
“Hehe, that’s good. Sister Gu, are we going to start the treatment soon?” Gong Lingyu asked.
Gu Qingxue nodded. “I wonder where you’re staying? In the future, I want to go to your house and treat you.”
There were too many people in the pharmacy, so she could not take the risk of treating Gong Lingyu there.
“Well… I want to stay in the inn. Is it inconvenient for you to treat me, Sister Gu?” Gong Lingyu asked.
Gu Qingxue agreed, “It is indeed inconvenient. Do you know anyone around here, Miss? It would be best if you could stay in a house. The fewer people disturb me, the more I can treat you with peace of mind. My family lives in Dafu Village. There should be an empty house nearby for you to live in.”
“I do have a friend who lives nearby. Why don’t I try to find him? But I’m not sure if he’s willing to take me in. If it’s not possible, I’ll have to live in an inn.” Gong Lingyu mentioned her cousin, and a hint of fear appeared in her eyes.
Seeing Gong Lingyu’s troubled expression, Gu Qingxue subconsciously felt that her friend must have a bad temper.
Otherwise, who would have the heart to let this cute little girl live on the streets?
“If you still can’t find a place to stay tomorrow, come and find me. I’ll think of a way for you. Go back and settle down today. We’ll talk about it tomorrow.” Gu Qingxue led Gong Lingyu out of the room.
She raised her hand to open the door, and Gu Qingxue watched Cao Duo roll in.
Cao Duo looked embarrassed as well. She quickly stood up and acted as if nothing had happened. “Miss, why did you come out so late? I was worried about you.”
“Lady Gu is just helping me diagnose. I’m fine. Let’s go and find my cousin first.” Gong Lingyu did not forget to wave at Gu Qingxue before she left. “Sister Gu, I’ll see you later.”
Gu Qingxue smiled as she watched Gong Lingyu leave. Then, she realized what she had said.
What did she mean by ‘see you later’? As expected, this girl was a little silly.
After watching Gong Lingyu leave, Gu Qingxue continued to treat other patients.
Due to today’s incident, Huang Rongfa was always worried that Gu Qingxue would get into trouble, so he asked Li Dali to send Gu Qingxue home before the time.
Gu Qingxue could not refuse Huang Rongfa’s good intentions, so she could only listen to him and return to Dafu Village in a horse carriage.
Before entering the village, Gu Qingxue saw a familiar horse carriage stopping at the entrance of Dafu Village.
And this horse carriage, which seemed to be out of place with Dafu Village, successfully attracted the gazes of the little children playing at the entrance of the village the moment it appeared.
“Wow, what a nice-looking carriage. It looks so much better than Uncle Dali’s carriage!” Li Xiaohu looked at the carriage with a face full of admiration, and could not help but want to go forward and touch it.
However, Li Xiaohu did not dare and still stood together with Dumby and the others.
