When he heard the report from the servant, he was stunned for a long time before he could react.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What did you say? The second young master has come back?” He could hardly believe it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old servant also followed with tears streaming down his face: “Yes, Master, it’s the second young master who has come back, brought back by the second young mistress.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Master Jie’s body stiffened as he staggered with help from the old servant until he reached the courtyard where Jie Zhonglin used to live.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After learning of his death, this courtyard remained as it was before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were few people in the family, and since no one was living there, his courtyard was preserved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon seeing the group of servants bustling about the courtyard, Master Jie finally burst into tears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’s come back. If he hadn’t come back, there wouldn’t be so many people coming and going in this courtyard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every time he came to this courtyard, it was always quieter than the others, with not a single person in sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What are they all doing?” Master Jie asked in a trembling voice, speaking to the old servant supporting him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old servant replied: “The second young master is injured. The second young mistress brought him back, and right now Doctor Gu is treating him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He’s injured?” Master Jie thought of the solitary, mangled arm buried in the Jie family’s tomb area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was his arm, because his fingers had been cut off by Du Wanqing in those days, and he always wore a small ring on it. The technique of reconnecting severed fingers was something only Gu Youyou knew, so it couldn’t be wrong that…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes turned cold, and he hurried towards that room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when he reached the doorway, he stopped again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He dared not enter, afraid that he would see his son’s mutilated body, and witness him die before his eyes once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that case, he would rather his son had never come back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d aged, and could no longer bear the grief of an elder sending off one younger for a second time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master!” The servants greeted him and advised: “Doctor Gu is highly skilled in medicine. He’s treating the young master now, and everything will certainly be all right.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Master Jie took a step back and said: “I’ll still… I’ll wait a little longer before visiting.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He left the old servant by his side, saying, “You stay here and wait. If anything happens, let someone inform me immediately.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, Master!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had come stumbling in, and now he left the same way, ultimately not having the courage to look inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the room, Gu Youyou and Searcy were desperately trying to save Jie Zhonglin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His body was robust; he had recovered from many injuries without treatment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the wound on his leg kept recurring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the ghastly scars on his body, Miss Du stood in the corner and cried her eyes out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cuiya stood by her side, also with tears streaming down her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having disliked this son-in-law before, they were now reconciled upon seeing his current miserable state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was truly reaping what he had sown, fulfilling the vow he made with Du Wanqing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Youyou, frowning, administered the anesthetic to him and began to cut away the necrotic flesh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was also some misalignment in his leg bones, although not serious. However, after so long, the correction would be very difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, recalling Jie Zhonglin’s remarkable perseverance, Gu Youyou felt that maybe his leg really could be restored to its original state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Searcy, apply the medicine to him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surgery lasted over three hours, and Gu Youyou was drenched in sweat by the end of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was an infection in his leg that caused his high fever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His leg would need a long treatment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miss Du had been standing in the corner watching all along, biting her lip tightly to prevent herself from making any noise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was only after seeing that Gu Youyou had finished the treatment that she dared to approach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How is he?
