Chapter 251: Chapter 251 Old Lady Liu Visits the Grand View Garden

Qin Changlin had a mournful look on his face. Against such an old lady, he couldn’t out-curse or out-hit her, and since she was Gu Youyou’s grandmother, he didn’t have the nerve to say much.

"Old Madam, let’s talk this out nicely. The neighbors are all watching us on this street. Isn’t it a bit inappropriate for you to forcibly take things like this?"

Seeing that Qin Changlin was afraid of her, Old Madam Huang felt a surge of triumph. Why would she think it inappropriate?

Her eyebrows raised high, she huffed, "So, will you attend to patients or not?"

"This..." Qin Changlin became troubled and said, "I didn’t set this rule; Sister Youyou did. Whether I can see patients or not, I must ask for Sister Youyou’s opinion!"

Hearing this, she realized that this Jisheng Hall was actually controlled by that damn girl.

Old Madam Huang was clearly quite shocked, and at the same time, she felt even more proud.

Ha... Jisheng Hall is under my granddaughter’s command. From now on, do I even need to worry about the cost of medical treatments?

It’s perfect since my old man and I are getting on in years. Those large ginseng roots and top-grade deer antlers on the counter, we’ll have to take them home for nourishment.

While Old Madam Huang was indulging in her wishful thinking, she was interrupted by Gu Youyou’s chilly voice from behind.

"Qin Changlin, is this how you behave properly? Squabbling with an old lady in the middle of the street, have you no desire to graduate?"

The words ’graduate’ made Qin Changlin shudder all over. Graduating was a sore point for him—his master had passed away, and whether he could graduate or not was determined by Gu Youyou.

"Sister Youyou, I am innocent," he turned around with a gloomy face, pointing innocently at Old Madam Huang.

Look, your grandmother, I’m the victim here.

Old Madam Huang’s face was full of smiles as she softened her voice to a gentle tone, "Youyou, it’s been a while since you visited home. Grandma has come to see you, I..."

Gu Youyou merely glanced indifferently at Old Madam Huang, not letting her finish her sentence, and interrupted, "Let’s talk back at home."

With that, she turned and went back inside Jisheng Hall.

Old Madam Huang was taken aback and felt she had lost face.

She had planned to use the audience to introduce herself properly while everyone was watching.

The grandmother of Jisheng Hall’s owner—in the future, who in Qingshui Town would dare look down on her or despise her for being a simple rural old lady?

That ungrateful girl was not making things easy for her.

...

In the inner courtyard of Jisheng Hall, Gu Youyou sat leisurely, casually tapping on a teacup, her beautiful brows slightly furrowed as she peered through the window at the old lady outside.

In the yard, Old Madam Huang was like Liu Laolao who entered the Grand View Garden, her shifty gaze glancing here and there, occasionally clicking her tongue and barely suppressing her cackling laughter.

She looked like a crazy old woman!

Gu Youyou had intended to call her in so whatever fuss there was, she could keep an eye on it, which was surely better than causing a scene outside. Then, she would be able to discuss the real reason for coming to Jisheng Hall.

Gu Youyou certainly didn’t believe the old lady missed her; she wanted to hear this excuse.

She was, after all, always blaming Youyou for being sick and bringing bad luck, calling her a debt-collecting ghost a bit too smoothly.

But Old Madam Huang had lived her whole life in the village; how could she have seen rooms like those in Doctor Zhou’s backyard?

Doctor Zhou used to be an Imperial Physician, and although his family had fallen on hard times, he had been an Imperial Physician all his life. His confidence and taste were something that local families could hardly match, weren’t they?

His courtyard was always exquisitely arranged, not small by any means. To a rural old woman, wouldn’t this place be like Liu Laolao entering the Grand View Garden?

Fine, let her look her fill first before discussing further.
