Marrying a concubine and swallowing her dowry? The mistress turns around and marries a high-ranking

Chapter 326

Mo Chonggui looked at Shen Lingjun, whose eyes were filled with murderous intent, and after a long silence, he sighed softly, as if he had thought of something.

"Remove your disguise and head back to the city. Be careful these next few days."

......

The Marquis of Changguo's residence.

Several days have passed since Chu Tianming woke up.

Chu Tianming has almost fully recovered, but he has lost a lot of weight and is much weaker.

His left arm now resembles a rotten, blackened piece of firewood, pitted and scarred, a truly gruesome sight.

Although the ulceration has stopped, the muscles have died and atrophied, making it almost impossible to bend or exert force in the arm. At most, the arm can be lifted slightly and a few fingers can be moved. It's basically useless.

At first, Chu Tianming thought his left arm would gradually recover, but later he found that his left arm did not continue to improve, and his family stopped asking doctors to treat him.

Chu Tianming gradually guessed this terrible possibility and went to question the Lady of Changguo Marquis:

"Is my left arm... destined to remain like this?"

Lady Changguo avoided his gaze, her voice choked with emotion: "No...it will definitely get better..."

Chu Tianming saw the answer in her expression and immediately broke down:

"I only have this one left arm! If I can't use it either, then I'm a complete cripple! ...Why weren't you cured! Why didn't you ask a doctor to continue the treatment! Have you already given up on me!"

Lady Changguo, tears streaming down her face, said, "No! How could your father and mother possibly abandon you! You were on the verge of death before, and we only managed to save you by asking a disciple of Elder Xingju! Your left arm was also saved from amputation with great difficulty, but you know how badly it was infected before... It's simply impossible for it to recover..."

Chu Tianming wouldn't listen to a word, frantically turning around: "I don't believe it! I'm going to find that miracle doctor again for further treatment! My left arm can't just be useless like this!..."

"Have you had enough trouble?"

Marquis Changguo walked in with a stern face and angrily rebuked, "The family has already spent one million taels of silver on your medical treatment, what more do you want! That divine doctor said that it's already a miracle that your arm can be kept in its current state. Even the disciple of Elder Xingju could only treat it to this extent. Where are you going to find a doctor with even higher medical skills?"

Chu Tianming's eyes were bloodshot: "So this is all I can do? Before, when I lost my right hand, you said I could still practice with my left. Now that both my hands are useless, what can I do? How can I go to the battlefield?"

Marquis Changguo was also heartbroken for his son, but he was more accepting of reality than Chu Tianming.

With both hands completely crippled, it's impossible for him to go back to the battlefield, but going to the battlefield isn't that important right now. The Chu family is already in dire straits; the more important thing is to stabilize the Chu family and get through the current difficulties first.

"If you can't go to the battlefield, you can't go to the battlefield. Is your value and role only reflected on the battlefield? You've only lost your hands, not your brain. There are many other things you can do. Now you should be thinking about how to make up for the one million taels of silver that were spent on you!"

To save Chu Tianming, Marquis Changguo took out one million taels of silver in one go, almost emptying the Chu family's cash reserves, which plunged the Chu family's economic situation into crisis.

Of course, the Chu family's wealth is far more than this, but it takes time to realize its value. Right now, the Chu family has too many expenses, and they are suddenly in dire straits.

Marquis Changguo has been extremely anxious these past few days, racking his brains to think of a quick way to make money and fill this huge gap as soon as possible.
