The Hunter's Lively Wife-Chapter 2056: Worried and Afraid

Mrs. An quickly rushed into the inner room and saw Gu Tiezhu, who had been beaten black and blue. His eyes were bruised, his face swollen, and his mouth was bleeding.

Upon seeing Gu Tiezhu like this, Mrs. An cried out in pain and distress.

"Oh my, my Tiezhu, my son, how did you end up like this? Who did this to you? Tell me, and I’ll get justice for you!" The more Mrs. An spoke, the angrier she got. Her precious son was beaten half to death, and it truly infuriated her.

Mrs. An’s chest was heaving, making it clear how upset she was at the moment.

Gu Tiezhu owed someone silver and was beaten because he couldn’t pay it back. How could he dare tell his mother the truth?

He just held his mother’s hand and kept saying his leg hurt.

"Mother, my leg... my leg, please take a look, it hurts so much." Gu Tiezhu had woken up with an excruciating pain in his legs, which was worse than when he was being beaten.

Mrs. An felt a pang, her face turned pale, "Your leg? Son, what’s wrong with your leg? Did those bastards break it?" Mrs. An had a phobia of leg injuries ever since her husband Gu Chengxiang hurt his leg and was bedridden for almost two years before he could stand. Her son Gu Ya also had multiple leg injuries and was once a cripple for over a year.

Fortunately, in the end, her son’s leg was healed by that woman, Su Yunjin.

Thinking about these two incidents, Mrs. An felt a bit more favorable towards Su Yunjin. This was also why, although she considered taking a concubine for Gu Ya to upset Su Yunjin, she never thought about letting her son divorce Su Yunjin.

Su Yunjin indeed had done favors for both her son and Gu Chengxiang. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

She couldn’t let her son divorce Su Yunjin.

Gu Tiezhu had just woken up and had no idea what was wrong with his leg; he only felt it was very uncomfortable and moving it caused intense pain.

"Mother, today two people stomped hard on my legs. I’m not sure if the tendons or bones were injured?" Gu Tiezhu told Mrs. An with some difficulty.

Mrs. An’s face turned dark, and just then, the doctor walked in from outside with a bowl of prepared medicinal paste.

"Lad, your leg indeed has an injury to the tendons and bones. As the saying goes, it takes a hundred days to heal bones and tendons. For the next few months, don’t move around too much. Just lie in bed and recuperate!"

Mrs. An clutched the doctor’s sleeve, "Doctor, doctor, my son’s leg is injured. Can he still walk? Will he become crippled?"

"No, that won’t happen." The doctor gave Mrs. An a reassuring look, "As long as he rests well for a few months, your son’s injuries will heal completely, so there’s no need to worry too much."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. An was relieved. "Good, good, it’s alright then, it’s alright."

The doctor continued, "Madam, although your son will recover in a few months, his injuries are not minor. He must rest in bed. If you and your son don’t follow my instructions, there could be complications, and a limp is indeed possible."

Mrs. An nodded repeatedly, "Thank you, doctor, thank you. I will make sure my son rests well and doesn’t try to get up."

The doctor finished all his advice and then proceeded to apply medicine to Gu Tiezhu.

Su Yunjin, with her servants, was heading to the side hall to see Mrs. An, but before she reached it, a maid came to inform her that Mrs. An had left suddenly and in a great hurry.
