The old couple who were looking after the Gu family ran away, and the people in the compound also dispersed.

Gu Dong poked his head out from inside: "Sister, what is a drag bottle? Am I a drag bottle?"

Gu Chun's face turned dark, and he quickly pulled the two older ones in, closed the door, and began to teach:

"You are not my sister's fault. We are a family and will always be relatives."

"But sister, if it weren't for us, you could get married. What if you can't get married with us?"

"You know how to marry at such a young age, but your sister doesn't want to marry at all now. Besides, who can be a good person if he dislikes you and refuses to marry me?"

Gu Qiu didn't understand, but Gu Qiu felt that her sister was very domineering.

"Now that you are still young, my sister will take care of you. When you grow up and are capable, and your sister needs your help, will you dislike your sister?"

Gu Qiu quickly said: "How could it be? How could we dislike my sister? When I grow up, I will definitely make a lot of money for you."

Gu Xia also nodded.

Gu Dong was afraid that everyone would ignore her, so she jumped up and down with her little hands raised: "And me, and me, eldest sister. When I grow up, I will be super rich. I will earn a hundred yuan for you to spend."

One hundred yuan is a huge sum of money to her. She usually doesn't have pocket money, and the candy her sister buys for her can be bought for ten yuan a penny.

The three elders were also amused by her, and the atmosphere at home became joyful.

It has to be said that Gu Dong is the pistachio of this family, always able to liven up the atmosphere.

Gu Chun smiled and touched her head. She squinted her eyes like a little kitten.

In the evening, Gu Chun called Gu Qiu to come over and sleep with him. Xiao Zhuzi was taken away by Gu Xia and will sleep with his brother tonight.

The original person has a very quiet personality and is relatively introverted. She rarely talks to her family, so Gu Qiu doesn't understand what her sister wants to say to her.

She went to take a bath, and when she came in, Gu Chun was already half lying on the bed, holding a book and reading.

Seeing her coming out, Gu Chun greeted her: "Are you washed? Come and lie down."

"it is good."

Gu Qiu lay down next to her sister. The quilt was very warm, and her sister's body smelled like cream. It reminded her of her mother who passed away not long ago.

"Qiu'er, how are you at school recently?"

Why would my sister suddenly ask this, right?

"I'm fine, sister, nothing's wrong."

Gu Chun was busy with Gu Xia's medical treatment and Gu Dong's school admission these past two days, and was worried about neglecting his second sister. As a parent, you need a bowl of water to keep your balance.

"As long as it's okay, my sister has been busy with your brother's medical treatment these two days and hasn't paid much attention to you. If anything happens, you have to tell her in time."

In the darkness, Gu Qiu's mouth moved as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she spoke:

"Okay, sister, nothing happened recently. If something happens, I will tell you."

Gu Chun's observation skills are very keen. Gu Qiu must be hiding something from her. She plans to go to the school to investigate in two days.

When he went to work the next day, Gu Chun still took Xiao Zhuzi with him. Xiao Zhuzi has been drinking milk these days, and Gu Chun also steamed egg custard to feed him, and his complexion looks much better.

After get off work, she took Gu Xia to see Doctor Zhang again. This time Doctor Zhang opened the door and let them in.

Gu Chun thought to himself, there’s something going on!

The siblings sat down in the yard. Today they brought the mung bean cake made by Gu Chun himself.

Doctor Zhang refused: "You don't have to bring these here. Even an old man like me can't eat that much. If you really want to see a doctor, I won't charge any consultation fees. Just ask your brother to come over every day to sort out the medicinal materials for me."

Gu Chun's eyes lit up, and there was a bright future. Regardless of why Dr. Zhang suddenly agreed to treat Gu Xia, there was hope.

As for working, of course Gu Chun agreed. She was not someone who spoiled her children. Of course, she had to work hard to see a doctor.

This is also a good thing for Gu Xia, as he can learn a lot about medicinal materials.

"Of course. I'll ask my brother to come over and help you after school every day. Just let him do whatever you want. This kid is fourteen years old and can do anything."

Gu Chun sold his younger brother without hesitation.

Gu Xia didn't have any objection. He could treat the disease without spending any money. It didn't matter if he had to do some work. He was the only man in the family.

Xiao Zhuzi: What about me?

"Okay, today I will check your pulse first. If I can't cure your disease, you don't need to come again."

Doctor Zhang checked Gu Xia's pulse, pinched his neck a few times, and then said:

"It's caused by anxiety. Young people, please be more relaxed."

"Can you cure his disease?" Gu Chun asked anxiously.

"Yes, but there is no guarantee that it will be 100% cured. Come here every day for acupuncture and a medicinal bath. I have the medicinal materials here. Normally, you can recover within about a month."

When Gu Xia heard this, he felt suddenly enlightened. It would be great if he could really be cured quickly.

These days, seeing his sisters worried about him becoming mute, he felt very sad.

From that day on, Gu Xia began to go to Dr. Zhang's house for treatment and work every day after school.

He has a very smart mind, and he can memorize the medicinal materials that Doctor Zhang taught him once he sees them. If it weren't for the bad timing, Doctor Zhang would have wanted to accept him as his disciple.

During this time, Gu Xia felt that his mood was gradually getting better. When he was sorting out the medicinal materials, smelling the fragrance of the medicine, he felt very peaceful. He slowly immersed himself in it and forgot all the troubles in the world.

In less than a month, Gu Xia was able to speak.

One morning, Gu Chun got up early and saw him making breakfast again, so he said hello:

"Good morning, Axia."

Just as he was about to turn around and wash up, he heard a slightly hoarse voice behind him:

"Good morning, sister."

Gu Chun couldn't control it, his mouth opened wide, and there was a burst of ecstasy in his heart.

"Axia, can you speak now?"

"Well, sister, I woke up in the morning and suddenly found that I could make sounds."

His voice sounded like gravel, a little hoarse, but it was indeed possible for people to hear every word he said.

Gu Chun was so happy that she wanted to tell the whole world that her brother could speak and that her brother was not mute.

"Qiu'er, Dong'er, get up quickly, your brother can talk now."

Gu Qiu and Gu Dong also woke up at this time. As soon as the quilt was lifted, they got up to see their brother.

"Qiu'er, Dong'er, good morning." Gu Xia looked at the two sisters and said with a smile.

"Ah ah ah, second brother, you called me, are you feeling better?"

Gu Qiu was usually very calm, but now he couldn't help but be excited.

Gu Dong was even more excited. She jumped up and hugged her brother, shouting loudly:

"Brother, brother, brother."

The four of them hugged each other and laughed. Xiao Zhuzi sat on the bed and looked confused. He didn't know why his brother and sister were so happy suddenly.

But how could his little bamboo be absent, so he shouted: Ah~

It means brothers and sisters, look at me, look at the cute little bamboo, how can you ignore the little bamboo.

Gu Chun quickly took him out, asked him to face Gu Xia, and said:

"Xiao Zhuzi, are you happy that your brother can speak?"

"Xiao Zhuzi, call me brother." Gu Xia smiled softly and hugged Xiao Zhuzi.

Xiao Zhuzi didn't understand anything. He thought everyone was playing with him, so he laughed out loud, making his brothers and sisters laugh even more.

No matter how happy he was, he had to continue working to earn money to support his children. Gu Chun had to go to work in the factory after breakfast.

However, before leaving, she still told Gu Xia to go to Dr. Zhang after school to see if there would be any sequelae.

Gu Xia has decided that even if he recovers, he will continue to help Dr. Zhang sort out the medicinal materials. During this period of study, he has developed a strong interest in medicine.

How many lives can a doctor like Dr. Zhang save and how many families like them can regain hope?

Gu Chun was very supportive of him doing this. After all, it was a good thing to have someone in the family who understood medical science.

Even though everyone doesn’t respect Chinese medicine now, in future generations, there will be many diseases that Western medicine cannot treat well, but good Chinese medicine can cure them with just one diagnosis and treatment.

How much Gu Xia can learn depends on his own ability.
