The Full-Leveled Healer Transmigrates to a Real and Fake Rich Daughter Story - Chapter 185

185 Success

Hmph! She should let Xia Houqing suffer!

Anyway, this manor had been in disrepair for a long time. It was normal for a roof to collapse… right?

Seeing her silly joy, Chu Yi smiled, his eyes gentle. As long as she was happy!

The two of them continued slowly. From time to time, the sound of gravel and debris fell from the guest courtyard behind them. In the distance, the crows gloated again…

!!
When Gu Yanfei returned to the main courtyard, she saw Steward Huang peering around the entrance.

Of course, he had also heard the sound of the guest courtyard collapsing. However, Gu Yanfei had long instructed him not to step out of the courtyard casually.

“Go and tidy up two more guest rooms. If there’s nothing else, rest early,” Gu Yanfei instructed Steward Huang as she continued walking in.

Her calm appearance made Steward Huang feel at ease.

“Yes, yes, yes. I’ll do it now,” Steward Huang rubbed his hands and replied.

As they spoke, they arrived under the corridor in front of the central room. Gu Yanfei picked a chair nearby and sat down, while Si Hai and the other guards guarded outside the main courtyard.

Gu Yuan was only two steps behind them. He quickly strode into the house with a frown on his handsome face.

“There are no sedan chairs in this manor,” he instructed Steward Wang coldly. “It’s impossible not to have a sedan chair in the manor. We have to prepare one in the future.”

Steward Huang agreed again and thought to himself, ‘The masters haven’t been to the manor for more than ten years. The sedan chair in the past has long been broken.’

Gu Yuan did not care about Steward Huang. He quickly walked to Gu Yanfei’s side and asked gently, “Sister, are you feeling better? Do you want me to get a doctor to take a look at you?”

Gu Yanfei waved her hand, wanting to say that she was the best doctor. However, before she could say anything, she heard an old female voice outside the house.

“Miss… Young Master…”

Outside the central room, a short, fat, black figure came trudging toward them.

It was Granny Pang.

Granny Pang was wearing a black cloak that was neither new nor old. Her forehead was still tied with the white cloth from before, and her gray hair was a little messy in the wind.

Steward Huang’s daughter carefully held Granny Pang’s arm. The little girl explained slowly, “When Granny Pang heard that the Eldest Young Master was here, she insisted on coming over to pay her respects.”

“Eldest Young Master!” Even though they had not seen each other for so many years, Granny Pang still recognized Gu Yuan, who was beside Gu Yanfei, at a glance. Her red and swollen eyes were filled with tears again.

When she left, Gu Yuan was still a six-year-old child. Now, he has grown into an outstanding handsome man.

Granny Pang still did not look good, but she was clearly in a good mood. When her turbid old eyes looked at Gu Yuan and Gu Yanfei, they lit up.

Gu Yuan’s eyes widened slightly as he also recognized Granny Pang, whom he had not seen for many years.

10 years had allowed an ignorant child to grow into a heroic young man. At the same time, it had cruelly carved countless wrinkles and silver threads on Granny Pang’s round face and hair.

“Granny.” Gu Yuan was first shocked that Granny Pang was also in this manor. Then, he realized that she was injured and his voice was hoarse. “How did you…”

“I picked up Granny Pang on the way here with Jiaoniang and the others to hide from the snow,” Gu Yanfei explained on behalf of Granny Pang, leaning lazily against the high-backed chair. “At that time, Granny Pang’s head was injured and she had fallen by the roadside.”

“Granny said she went to the residence today, but she was beaten up.”

Gu Yanfei’s words were concise and did not say much. She could not hide the fatigue between her eyebrows.

Gu Yuan’s pupils dilated and his thin lips pursed tightly. His right hand subconsciously grabbed the arm of the chair.

“Granny…” His gaze moved again to Granny Pang’s forehead, which was wrapped in white cloth. There was an indiscernible tremble in his usually cold and steady voice.

He was not stupid. From Gu Yanfei’s few words, he immediately understood something. Granny Pang had been attacked to silence her.

But why?!

Gu Yuan’s eyes were cold and dark, as if they contained tens of thousand years of ice.

The figures of those blood relatives crossed each other in their hearts.

Gu Yuan pursed his thin lips tightly and vaguely felt a sense of oppression…

Juan Bi nimbly served tea to everyone. Only Gu Yanfei’s cup was personally handed to her by Juan Bi.

There was no good tea in the manor, so Juan Bi used the flower tea she had brought with her. A faint fragrance of plum blossom tea wafted into the air with the steam of the tea.

After drinking a few mouthfuls of hot tea, Gu Yanfei’s face turned a little red from the heat, but her body was still weak, and her lips were a little pale.

Gu Yanfei examined Gu Yuan’s complicated expression. Her eyes were deep as she slowly asked, “Big Brother, have you ever had smallpox?”

Because of her exhaustion, her voice was not as clear as usual. Against the snow outside the house, it had a hint of vicissitudes.

Granny Pang could not help but tighten her grip on her handkerchief when she heard this. Her dry and pale lips trembled.

When he heard the word “smallpox”, even Chu Yi, who was quietly drinking tea, reacted and glanced at Gu Yuan.

“…” Gu Yuan raised his eyebrows in confusion, not knowing why his sister would ask this.

After thinking about it, he said honestly, “I remember one time when I was three or four years old, I was very sick and kept having a fever. I was groggy… Grandma said it was smallpox.”

“Was it really smallpox?” Gu Yanfei stared intently into Gu Yuan’s eyes and tried her best to pull herself together. She asked again, “Didn’t Big Brother suspect anything?”

Her face was slightly pale, and the gaze she looked at Gu Yuan with became deeper and more complicated.

Gu Yuan was speechless.

Gu Yuan narrowed his eyes, and his expression gradually became serious. Of course, his sister would not speak without thinking…
