The Hunter's Lively Wife

Chapter 79: Chapter 79: The Truth Comes to Light

“Dad, wake up, Dad, please wake up!” Mrs. Zhang went to Lord Gu Chengxiang’s side, pulled on her throat, and called for a long time, but Gu Chengxiang gave no response whatsoever.

Mrs. Han, the wife of the fourth son, also tried to rouse him, calling out, “Dad, Dad?”

Similarly, Gu Chengxiang remained completely motionless!

“What’s going on?” Mrs. Zhang couldn’t contain her confusion as she turned to look at her husband, Gu Baofu, “Husband, why can’t we wake our dad?”

Mrs. An’s face turned pale with fright, “My dear, are you alright? Please don’t scare me!” Mrs. An moved forward to nudge Lord Gu Chengxiang, but he still didn’t react.

The onlookers were also perplexed, and someone in the crowd couldn’t help but speculate, “What’s really going on with Gu Ya’s dad? Why can’t he be woken up no matter how much we call? Could it be that Gu Ya’s dad…?”

...

Though the person only spoke half the thought, everyone listening knew what was meant.

With her legs going soft, Mrs. An nearly collapsed to the ground in fear.

Fortunately, Gu Ya caught his mother in time, preventing Mrs. An from falling. She looked towards the bed where Lord Gu Chengxiang lay and started to cry sorrowfully, “Oh dear, if something happens to you, how am I supposed to go on?”

Su Yunjin stared at Gu Ya’s dad on the bed for a moment and, seeing that he didn’t appear dead, immediately stepped forward to check his breathing.

Indeed, there was breath.

Assured that Gu Ya’s dad was still alive, Su Yunjin immediately turned to her mother-in-law, Mrs. An, “Mother, don’t worry, Dad’s fine! He’s just passed out!”

“What? Daughter-in-law of the third son, are you saying your dad is fine?” Mrs. An looked at Su Yunjin incredulously, her eyes wide with both shock and joy. Not only Mrs. An, but even Gu Ya looked towards Su Yunjin, eyes bright with excitement.

Su Yunjin nodded, “Mother, really, if you don’t believe it, go see for yourself.”

Upon hearing Su Yunjin’s words, Mrs. An hurried forward to check Lord Gu Chengxiang’s breath, and feeling the air he exhaled, she became overjoyed, repeatedly saying, “That’s wonderful, that’s wonderful, daughter-in-law of the third son, your dad is really fine.”

With the confirmation that Lord Gu Chengxiang was fine, the Gu Family collectively sighed with relief.

“Yaya, hurry, go now and fetch Doctor Hu from our village to have a look at your dad!” After the initial elation, Mrs. An quickly urged Gu Ya to find a doctor.

Just as Gu Ya was about to step out, Su Yunjin stopped him, “Husband, wait a moment! Maybe I can try to bring Dad back to consciousness.”

“Yunjin, are you sure you can do this?” Gu Ya looked at her doubtfully.

Su Yunjin didn’t explain much to Gu Ya and simply walked over to Lord Gu Chengxiang’s bedside, where she pinched his philtrum!

“Cough cough cough!” After a violent fit of coughing, Lord Gu Chengxiang slowly opened his eyes. As he woke, someone in the crowd immediately shouted, “He’s awake, he’s awake!”

Eagerly, Mrs. Zhang stepped forward to question Lord Gu Chengxiang, “Dad, Dad, have you awoken? Please say whether it was the third brother and his wife who falsely accused Changshun today and slandered your eldest grandson, Changshun?”

“Grandfather, yes, please tell us, quickly reveal the truth! Today, my uncle and aunt falsely accused your grandson and tarnished his reputation, and now only you can clear his name.”

Gu Changshun was confident that his grandfather, Lord Gu Chengxiang, was unaware of today’s events and feigned an innocent look, as if he had been greatly wronged.

Lord Gu Chengxiang turned his gaze towards Gu Changshun and his previously expressionless face suddenly darkened, shaking with anger as he pointed at him and cursed, “You scoundrel, beast! Beast!”
