Chapter 12 Born to be Unlucky

Gu Changyuan's yard was secluded. He never had to pay his respects to anyone when he returned home. The people at home were too far away from him, and he didn't like to be offended. Only his ignorant fifth brother would occasionally approach him.

After he ate a piece of peach blossom crisp, his fifth brother suddenly jumped in front of him.

"Big brother, what are you eating?"

"Is it tasty?"

"Can you give me a bite?"

As he said that, saliva had already flowed down.

Gu Changyuan signaled him to take it himself, and the little brother ate a piece, and then packed all the other peach blossom crisps without hesitation.

Gu Changyuan:...

It was nothing to eat a few pieces of peach blossom crisps, but that night, my fifth brother inexplicably started a high fever.

After seeing the doctor in the palace, the fifth master of the Gu family still had a fever. The Gu family went outside to hire a doctor with excellent medical skills. After taking the medicine, it became hotter than before.

Gu Changyuan was Gu Siliang's eldest son. After his biological mother gave birth to him, she passed away. Soon after, Gu Siliang Xuxian married Qian.

Qian gave birth to four sons for Gu Siliang. This young man Gu Wu was most favored by the old lady. Now he is even more fed. The old lady was so anxious that she couldn't sleep well, and the entire Jingguo Duke's Mansion was brightly lit.

In the Jingtang, the old lady was upright and serious. Qian wiped her tears quietly while Gu Siliang rubbed her eyebrows, and everyone in the other rooms was also present.

"I changed four or five doctors, and they all said that it was caused by spleen and stomach disorders, but today Ming Ge'er didn't eat anything messy..."

After hearing what Qian said, the nanny who was responsible for taking care of Gu Changming suddenly trembled all over and looked panicked.

Qian's eyes were sharp-eyed, "Madam Zhang, tell me the truth, did Brother Ming run to avoid Yunxuan again today?"

"Go back to Madam, the fifth master did sneak to the uncle's place today. The old man seemed to bring him peach blossom crisps back to eat..." The nanny became more and more afraid, "Old slave... I heard what the fifth master said afterwards! If the old slave knew, he would definitely not let the fifth master eat those things..."

Madam Zhang's voice was small, but everyone heard it clearly, and thus inferred the cause of Gu Changming's disease.

——That person is born with a curse, and ordinary people don’t like to get close to him. The fifth master dares to eat what he gives him, no wonder the high fever does not subside.

Qian stopped her tears and glanced at the sisters-in-law in other rooms. These sisters-in-law were all humans and would be conscious right now.

The second wife said first, "Brother Yuan never brings things to the mansion. I remember that he doesn't care about food. Today, I happened to bring peach blossom crisps back and gave it to Brother Ming..."

"Yes, he has a bad face on weekdays and never deals with people. How could he bring things to Brother Ming? I'm afraid he doesn't have ulterior motives..."

"It doesn't matter whether you have ulterior motives or not. The fortune teller has said that he is born unlucky. In my opinion, it was right for my sister-in-law to send him to the village... Our Brother Ming is born kind and cheerful, and it's not this way to keep coming to him..."

"Yes, Brother Yuan lives in the Duke's Mansion. Everyone looks up and sees him. We are all afraid of provoking him. Besides, isn't the second master going to take the exam? What if he gets bad luck..."

...

Qian looked at the old lady, "Mother, you see, Brother Ming has been in a hot and cold state, it's not a solution. I often send people to clean up the village. Brother Yuan can live now. Maybe when Brother Yuan moves away, Brother Ming will get better."
