Chapter 485: Chapter 484: Rumors and Gossip_1
"Ah, it is indeed pitiful. Who could be so heartless as to harm a pregnant woman?"
Su Hai flashed a glimmer of light from his aged eyes: "My poor Pan’er! Right now, not only is the child in her belly... ah! She also bumped her head. I’m afraid she won’t be able to move around freely for two or three months. This is indeed very pitiful... Ah..."
"But the lady did not..."
Doctor Cao wanted to deny it, but when his gaze met Su Hai’s old face staring at him, words got stuck in his throat.
He then coughed twice, and, with an apologetic face, clenched his fist and turned his head to the side.
"Old Master Su, it is due to my limited abilities that I am unable to resolve this situation. I hope that you can understand!"
These words made Su Hai nod in agreement.
He turned his head back and waved to the other side. Su Huarong quickly approached, took out two silver ingots from his arms, and handed them to Doctor Cao.
Without saying anything more, Doctor Cao accepted the silver ingots, tucked them away and silently greeted Su Hai again.
Su Hai dropped his eyelids and cast a subtle glance at Su Huarong.
Su Huarong stepped forward and whispered: "Doctor Cao, I apologize for the offense!"
The next moment, he suddenly threw a punch at his face.
"You quacks, can’t even cure a person. You talk about saving lives, healing the wounded, or being another Miracle Healer Hua Tuo! Get out, never appear before us. Otherwise, do not blame us for being ruthless! Quacks..."
That day, many pairs of eyes saw with their own eyes that Doctor Cao was severely beaten and chased out of the Qin Family compound.
He was ridiculed and fled in disgrace, covering his head with his hands.
Soon, all kinds of rumors quietly spread among the villagers.
It is heard, the Wife of Fourth-class Imperial Order fell off the slope and is still unconscious, her life hanging by a thread.
It is heard, Su Pan’er fell and had a miscarriage, her four-month-old fetus has turned into a pool of blood.
It is heard, the Qin Family compound is now in complete chaos, with loud arguments and disputes, and father-in-law and son-in-law having a big fight, heading towards a complete fallout.
It is heard...
Also heard...
All kinds of hearsay and rumors spread widely in the surrounding area.
Just as various kinds of rumors are circulating outside, Su Pan’er was sitting on the side of the bed, sipping soup brought to her mouth by Qin Yi with a ladle.
Mrs Su-Hua and Su Lao Si were sitting in the private room outside, discussing the insane rumors about Su Pan’er that are spreading.
"The speed of these rumors spreading, and the absurdness of their content, are simply outrageous."
Mrs Su-Hua said in a huffy tone: "I don’t know who these heartless people are. Pan’er was so good to them. They not only take joy in others’ calamities, but also make up such absurd stories, hmpf!"
"Look at you, old woman, why are you saying these things? Haven’t you seen that Su Pan’er has already woken up?"
Su Lao Si glared at her: "It is not our place to control what others say. It doesn’t affect us anyway. Moreover, we want them to talk; the faster they spread the rumors the better."
Isn’t that right?
The faster these rumors spread, the safer Su Pan’er will be.
Thinking about this, Mrs Su-Hua, though still discontented, didn’t say anything more in the end.
The laughter of Su Hai and Su Huarong who were beside her couldn’t be held back.
Su Pan’er also couldn’t help but laugh. Her gaze landed on Qin Yi’s face, which was visibly thinner, and his eyes were surrounded by blood streaks. But his smile was extraordinarily joyous and gentle.
Her gaze then shifted downwards, noticing he had become significantly more robust around the waist.
It was as if she remembered, when she was in danger before, the rock she was clinging to seemed to all of a sudden fall!
Then, then...
She hurriedly avoided the soup that Qin Yi was offering her, and suddenly grabbed his arm: "Qin Yi, were you injured on your back?"
When her words came out, the people who were whispering outside immediately stopped talking and quickly came in.
"What happened?"
"As I recall, you were injured, right? The wounds on your back, have they been properly treated?"
Su Pan’er asked anxiously.
"Don’t move, your arm has been strained. Don’t move it around randomly."
Qin Yi, as if nothing happened, put down the bowl, and put Su Pan’er’s hand back into the quilt: "Yes, I had a minor injury. It’s only that a small rock hit me and caused a dark bruise. It’s no big deal. Are you feeling sleepy? Want to sleep a bit more?"
He gently asked.
Su Pan’er stared at him for a long time, then finally whispered a laugh and obediently nodded.
"Good!"
Having spoken, she really did close her eyes and snuggle into the quilt.
She had initially intended only to rest her eyes, but the moment she closed them, she felt so sleepy that she couldn’t keep her eyes open, and unexpectedly fell asleep.
Qin Yi continued to stare at her sleeping face blankly, not daring to blink.
It wasn’t until he felt a light pat on his shoulder: "Fourth Younger Brother-in-Law..." Su Huarong pointed at Su Pan’er, and then the outside.
"I’ll wait for a while, I’m worried about Pan’er waking up and not seeing me."
His eyes held no one but her. He continued to stare blankly at the small woman sleeping in the quilt, as if she would leave him in the next moment, so he couldn’t help but to reach out every few moments to check her breath, only be relieved when he found her sleeping soundly.
At the side, Su Huarong really couldn’t stand it anymore!
He reached out and dragged Qin Yi up, forcibly pulling him outside.
Qin Yi tried to resist, grabbing the railing with one hand, refusing to leave: "Let me go! What are you doing? Pan’er will wake up in a moment..."
"When Pan’er wakes up, her Fourth Uncle and Aunt can take care of her. There won’t be any problems."
But Su Huarong forcibly pulled him away: "Look at you now. You haven’t shaved or combed your hair, nor washed your face, or even changed your clothes. Didn’t you see earlier how worried Su Pan’er looked?"
"Really?"
Qin Yi was still struggling initially. Upon hearing the last sentence, he immediately became quiet.
"Did she really look worried about me?"
"Would I need to lie about this to coax you?"
Su Huarong was simply speechless!
"Fine, I will go wash up now. You guys take care of Pan’er..."
Before he could even finish his sentence, he had already disappeared.
Leaving Su Huarong shaking his head helplessly. Didn’t Qin Yi pass the imperial examination at a young age? How could he be unable to tell right from wrong?
"He is distressed because he is worried. Pan’er is indeed a fortunate child."
Su Hai, who understood the situation, said: "His injury is on his back, and it’s probably hard for him to treat it himself. Didn’t Doctor Cao leave behind some medicated cream before he left? You should take it to him."
This kid doesn’t even know how to take care of his own body.
Qin Yi actually hadn’t noticed the pain, his entire attention had been on Su Pan’er. Just hastily stopping the bleeding by wrapping a bandage around it, he even forgot to change it afterwards.
Now that he suddenly relaxed, he felt wave after wave of stinging pain coming from his back.
He reluctantly took off the bloody shirt that had stuck to the wound, tearing off a large piece of skin along with it, causing stars to sparkle before his eyes due to the pain.
