I Transmigrated Into a Novel and Became the Vicious Stepmother of Five Cute Babies

73 The Deposit For Treatment

Constable Wang was in a bad mood after his mouth was covered by someone just now. When he saw that Mo Ruyue was not giving him any face and even dared to reject the County Magistrate’s personal invitation, a wave of anger rushed to his head and he shouted without any care.

“You’re just a stinky woman. Do you really think you’re a big deal just because you know a little bit of medicine? If it wasn’t for our master giving her this blessing, she probably wouldn’t even know where the main door of the residence is?”

“I’m telling you, if you know what’s good for you, you’d better hurry back with us brothers. You’ll naturally get some benefits after we’re done. Otherwise, if you want to refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit, then we’ll fulfill your wish!”

Mo Ruyue’s eyes narrowed slightly. The fingers on the door slightly exerted force, and a few tiny cracks actually appeared on the thick wooden board. They spread out with her fingers as the center, but they were too small and not obvious.

Constable Liao’s ears twitched. He had obviously heard a strange sound. His pupils contracted slightly, but he didn’t miss the flash of hostility in Mo Ruyue’s eyes.

This woman was definitely not simple!

He subconsciously turned around and scolded Constable Wang, “Shut up! Even the old master treats her with caution and respect, and you think you can insult her as you please? If you’re not satisfied with this task, go back and tell the old master. Don’t drag the old master down here!”

If it was any other time, Constable Liao would not care about how Constable Wang was showing off in front of others. But it was different now.

The magistrate had always valued his reputation, especially the praise of “loving the people like his own children.” That was why he had given him two silver notes before they left.

When inviting someone, he had to invite them solemnly to show his love for talent and the importance he attached to the Masters of Xing Lin. At the same time, he also had to achieve the purpose of inviting them to treat his wife’s strange illness.

This Constable Wang was so boorish, and his words and actions were improper. He didn’t know how to judge the situation at all. He had been acting in his usual arrogant and domineering manner. This wasn’t just smashing his face, but the County Magistrate’s face.

Constable Wang was a little dumbfounded by Constable Liao’s scolding. Although Constable Liao was the First Constable, he was still more experienced. In fact, he was only half a head shorter than him. Now that he was being scolded by him like a grandson, how could he tolerate this?

He immediately widened his eyes and wanted to rush up, but he was pulled back by the two constables who had been guarding him. They kept persuading him, “Brother Wang, Brother Wang, forget it. The master’s errand is more important! Don’t you remember what the old master said? if we can’t invite this Lady Qin back, then we don’t have to go back!”

“That’s right, Brother Wang. Why should we stoop to his level? Let’s get this done first, then slowly …”

The two constables pulled him further away and kept saying good words to persuade him. It looked like they were standing on his side and fighting for him, but in fact, they didn’t want a stinky fish like him to mess up a good task.

Mo Ruyue stood by the door and didn’t move or speak, watching them fight among themselves.

That fierce-looking Constable was obviously a hotheaded person who could do nothing but ruin things. If it wasn’t for this Constable in front of her, he would have screwed up even if there were a hundred tasks.

However, this Constable Liu wasn’t easy to dismiss. If things went wrong, she would have to go on this trip.

After scolding Constable Wang and making sure that he wouldn’t take the opportunity to make trouble again, Constable Liao turned to Mo Ruyue and said apologetically, “Madam Qin, I’m really sorry. He didn’t mean to offend you, but there was a case that didn’t go well before, so he was a little angry. I’ll apologize to you on his behalf. ”

He didn’t wait for Mo Ruyue to speak and took out a thirty-tael Silver Note from his chest and said, “This is what our master specifically told me to give you. Treat it as a down payment for your treatment. I definitely won’t let you come here in vain.”

“Big brother, it’s not that I don’t want to give you and the County Magistrate face, but I really only have a rough understanding of medicine. It’s just that I happened to see the case that Divine Doctor Qin couldn’t cure, so I was lucky enough to cure it. I really don’t want to mislead others and delay the patient’s condition. ”

Mo Ruyue still refused to nod in agreement. Of course, everyone liked white silver, but it would only bring more trouble.

“Lady Qin, the County Magistrate is already very sincere. If you think this is not enough, what if you add this?”

He took out a thirty tael Silver Note from his chest again. This was all the County Magistrate had given him. Sixty taels of silver to hire a Divine Doctor was not a lot, but to a woman whose medical skills were only in the rumors, it was a very sincere gesture.

Mo Ruyue looked at the two silver notes and thought that no matter who the County Magistrate wanted to treat, that person’s illness was probably really very difficult to deal with. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have spent so much money on just one person from the rumors. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that he was turning to any doctor in a hurry.

She raised her head and looked at Constable Liao. The determination in his eyes had never wavered. It was obvious that he would not give up even if she refused him again.

Mo Ruyue was a person who hated trouble. In her opinion, the trouble of making a trip was less than the trouble of being pestered by this person. Moreover, she could earn sixty taels of silver from this trip, which was much more than what she could earn from hunting in the mountains.

It was not every day that she could get her hands on large prey, and the small prey could only be sold for a few taels of silver. The speed at which she was making money was still a little slow.

For ordinary people, they would wake up from their dreams with a smile if they could earn a few dozen wens a day, but there were people who felt that earning a few taels of silver at once was too slow.

They were at different levels, so it was not easy to satisfy their desires.

“It’s getting late. If I go to the city with you now, I’m afraid I won’t be able to make it back in time. There are only a few young children left at home, I really can’t be at ease. ”

Mo Ruyue looked at the sky. The sun was already setting. Even if she went back with them and rushed back and forth at full speed, it was impossible for her to come back before night. Even if the Qin Family’s new residence had high walls and thick doors, she would not be at ease letting the five children stay at home alone.

“How about this, you all go back today. I’ll also sort out the medicinal herbs I have and make some preparations. Tomorrow morning, I’ll go to the city to see the County Magistrate. In any case, you all know where I live, so don’t worry about me reneging on my debt and running away.”

She finally decided to make a trip after considering all the factors.

No matter how difficult the condition of the patient the magistrate wanted her to treat was, she was very confident in her medical skills. Besides, the medical room in her mushroom house in her interspace was not just for show.

Constable Liao stared at her for a long time before he nodded and said, “Then we will follow lady Qin’s wishes. When the city gate opens tomorrow morning, I will personally welcome you at the city gate.”

“No. Constable Liao, do you really believe everything she says? Are we just going back to report to the old master?”

As soon as Constable Wang opened his mouth, he was dragged away by two other men. They did not cover his mouth because they wanted to use his mouth to ask their doubts. They also dragged him away to give face to Constable Liao.

Mo Ruyue pretended that she did not hear that. She could not help but sigh when she saw Constable Liao walk away without even turning back.
