Gu Dafeng and Gu Qiuyue didn’t have a good relationship in the past. It was just that the age difference was a little big. Coupled with the fact that they were already married, they rarely met.
However, no matter what their relationship was in the past, Gu Dafeng was really happy to meet her family at this time.
However, Gu Qiuyue clearly did not think so. For some reason, she had become the concubine of a rich family with the surname Zhou in the prefectural city of Qing’an Prefecture. Furthermore, she seemed to be very doted on.
When she saw Gu Dafeng like that, she only felt happy. However, she was not as happy as someone who met their relatives in a foreign land.
Especially when she saw Gu Dafeng’s desolate appearance and Bian Han’s almost hopeless legs.
Gu Qiuyue originally wanted to ignore them. She turned around and left as if she didn’t know them.
However, she returned not long after and looked at them with a condescending expression. “Gu Dafeng, are you trying to save your husband? If you beg me, I’ll find a doctor to treat his legs and give him medicine so that you can both survive.”
Gu Dafeng knew that Gu Qiuyue had gone overboard, but looking at her dying husband, she knelt down and begged her without a word.
There was nothing else she could do but beg her.
Gu Qiuyue was indeed very happy. She laughed until her entire body was trembling. She squatted down and her eyes were filled with malice. “Alright, I’ll save him, but you’ll sell yourselves and sign a contract to become my servants. How about that?”
Gu Dafeng was shocked. Gu Qiuyue wanted them to be… servants?
Of course, she was unhappy, but at this point, Gu Dafeng could only accept her fate.
Moreover, a day ago, she was actually thinking of selling herself to exchange for her husband’s life.
But now, there were refugees everywhere. How many people would put a straw on their heads and sell themselves just to have a bite to eat? This kind of person who did not seem to be a burden and looked like a laborer did not have many buyers.
Forget it, she was already prepared to sell herself anyway. Now, her master had just changed to Gu Qiuyue.
Other than feeling disgusted, there was no other difference.
Gu Dafeng agreed and pressed her thumb print on the indenture along with the unconscious Bian Han.
Then, she quietly followed Gu Qiuyue back to the Zhou Mansion.
As expected, Gu Qiuyue found a doctor to treat Bian Han’s legs. However, this doctor’s medical skills were not good. Not only did she make Bian Han suffer, but his legs were also not completely cured.
However, his legs were no longer swollen and pus was no longer flowing out. The high fever on his body had also subsided.
No matter what, his life was saved.
That was enough. Nothing else mattered.
However, what followed was Eldest Aunt Gu’s calamity. She had become Gu Qiuyue’s servant, and it was common for her to be beaten and scolded. Once Gu Qiuyue was unsatisfied with her serving tea and water, Gu Qiuyue would not give her food and she would kneel outside the courtyard to suffer the cold.
Moreover, the indenture they signed back then was for two people. Bian Han could not work because of his leg injury. Hence, Gu Qiuyue asked Gu Dafeng to do all his work. Otherwise, she was not allowed to eat or sleep.
During that period of time, Gu Dafeng was so busy that she did not have any time to rest.
Because of this, Bian Han blamed himself very much. There were several times when he wanted to end his life, so that he would not drag her down, but in the end, he was saved by Gu Dafeng.
If he died too, Gu Dafeng would feel that there was no point in living.
At least her husband was by her side and she had someone to rely on.
