Chapter 694: Chapter 685: Reattaching a Severed Finger

Miss Du finished speaking and without looking at the crazed Concubine Du again, turned and left.

Concubine Du stopped her wild laughter and began frantically beating on the window, shouting loudly, "Don’t go, you’re not allowed to go, let me out..."

A moment later, she shook her head violently and shouted something else.

"No, go away, you must not come to the Jie Family again, you are the one who was driven out of the Jie Family as a rejected wife, just go away..."

The watching servants shook their heads and whispered among themselves, "Concubine Du must truly be insane."

...

Gu Youyou was busy until nightfall before she finished the finger reattachment surgery, and she herself was almost overwhelmed by exhaustion. In contrast, the second son of the Jie Family, throughout the entire process, was drenched in sweat from the pain yet clenched his teeth and did not utter a sound.

This couldn’t help but remind her of the legend of Guan Yu’s bone scraping.

This scum of a man still had some willpower, after all.

After putting away her things, Gu Youyou stood up and said to the second son of the Jie Family, "That should do for now. Keep an eye on the color of the severed finger. If it turns black, notify me immediately, otherwise your life could be in danger.

"If everything goes normally, I should be able to remove your stitches in about ten days. However, the steel pin used for stabilization cannot be moved, to be safe, it needs to stay in place for nearly two months. During this time, be extra careful not to injure it again."

The second son of the Jie Family took a breath and gently hummed in acknowledgment.

Seeing he was also on the verge of not being able to hold up, Gu Youyou didn’t say anything more and went outside.

Xie Qinyun hurried over and asked anxiously, "How is it, my second brother is alright, isn’t he?"

Gu Youyou replied, "The finger has been reattached, whether it will survive, I do not know. Observe it closely these next few days."

"A severed finger can be reattached?" They clearly thought Gu Youyou was just there to treat the wound on the second young master’s finger, and they had never imagined she was there to reattach his severed finger.

At that moment, the second son of the Jie Family came out as well, and wasn’t it his severed little finger that Gu Youyou had just reattached?

Xie Qinyun, looking at his hand and secretly marveling, said, "Doctor Gu, you’re truly remarkable, you really did reattach it, didn’t you?"

Gu Youyou, her heart blooming with joy and secretly smug, replied indifferently, showing off nonetheless, "What’s so surprising about that? If the conditions are right, not to mention a lost finger, whether it’s a severed hand or foot, or even a heart or liver transplant, it’s not a problem."

"Cousin, you’re so amazing!" Lin Qianqing said with an admiring face.

Gu Youyou chuckled, and seeing that it was getting late, she said after coming out, "Where is Miss Du? Cousin, didn’t she come with you?"

Lin Qianqing glanced at the second son of the Jie Family and said, "Miss Du went to see Concubine Du after she arrived and then left, saying she would wait for you at our residence."

The second son of the Jie Family turned even paler and thought to himself, ’She didn’t even glance at me, I thought she came to see me, but it turns out she was here to see her sister.’

"Since that’s the case, let’s not delay any longer and head back quickly," Gu Youyou told Lin Qianqing.

Xie Qinyun looked worriedly at her own second brother before turning to escort Gu Youyou and the others out.

"Has your father come back, and did he say how Concubine Du would be dealt with?"

As they passed by the flower hall, Gu Youyou asked.

Xie Qinyun replied, "I heard Concubine Du has gone insane. With a madwoman like that, it’s truly hard to decide what to do. Keeping her in this state, if we were to toss her onto the streets, it would affect my father’s reputation."

Given Lord Jie’s disposition, it seemed unlikely that he would throw a madwoman out onto the streets to be ridiculed by others.

Besides, no matter what she had done, Concubine Du was, after all, Lord Du’s daughter.
