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

68 Trouble Is Coming One After Another

“Madam Qin, you see, helping one or two is the same, just take it as helping along…”

Sixth Uncle still wanted to fight for himself, but Mo Ruyue intended to give him this opportunity.

“Sixth Uncle, I still have a family of babies to feed. I either go hunting in the mountains or sell goods in the city all day long. When I come back, I still have to cook and do housework. If I didn’t save the old lady once before, I wouldn’t be able to give you the medicine even if you begged me.”

Mo Ruyue did not have a good expression on her Sixth Uncle’s face. First, he helped his nephew to abandon his own mother. Then, he lied and poured dirty water on innocent people to cover up his nephew’s crime. Finally, he even wanted to ask for medicine for the sick, and in turn, achieve his real purpose of treating himself.

!!

What kind of a good person could this kind of person be? He deserved to suffer from those diseases!

She had long seen from his face that he was plagued with a serious illness. Although it was not fatal, he had been tortured. This was his retribution, and he still wanted her to cure him?

In your dreams!

Mo Ruyue didn’t have any intention of being a defender and judging others, but she insisted on her own principles and did her best. This was not a problem at all.

“Ah, this… This … Also, it’s Sixth Uncle’s thoughtless consideration.”

He said slowly, feeling that he had lost all his face in front of Mo Ruyue.

In the end, he couldn’t take the medicine away because Mo Ruyue had said that if he wanted to take the medicine, he had to sign a form of exemption and come back for a follow-up visit every three months so that she could change the old madam’s medicine. Otherwise, if the medicine failed and there was any problem, it would have nothing to do with Mo Ruyue.

When Nie Wu heard this request, he had no choice but to come even if he was unwilling. Everyone in the village already knew that Mo Ruyue could cure his mother’s illness. If he didn’t come to ask for medicine just because he had been tormented by her a few times, then his unfilial crime would be confirmed.

Mo Ruyue personally saw Nie Wu put his handprint on the letter of exemption, then handed him the written prescription and the prescribed medicine. At the same time, she reached out and said, “I won’t ask you for too much. Fifty wens for one dose of medicine. I won’t ask you for the prescription since you can’t afford it anyway.”

“Fifty Wen for one medicine? Why don’t you just rob someone!”

Nie Wu couldn’t take it anymore. Even if he was sick, he couldn’t bear to buy medicine for himself, let alone such expensive medicine. A medicine for a cold only cost a few Wen, and Mo Ruyue actually asked him for fifty Wen for a medicine?

“What? Too much?”

“Are you expecting me to give you free medicine?” Mo Ruyue sneered.

“It’s not free, but it’s not that expensive,”

Mo Ruyue had really guessed Nie Wu’s thoughts.

He thought about how when Mo Ruyue saved his mother before, the medicine was free. Anyway, he could give her one or a few, and she didn’t expect to make money by treating people, so he might as well do the good thing to the end and not charge her.

However, he couldn’t say it directly. In the end, he didn’t expect that Mo Ruyue not only wouldn’t give him free medicine, but also asked for fifty Wen for a dose of medicine. How could he accept this?

“Your mother has been treated for many years, and no one has been able to cure her. Don’t you know that?”

Mo Ruyue said coldly.

“I’m already giving your mother face by asking you for fifty Wen. Take the prescription to the clinic and ask. If it’s less than a hundred Wen, I’ll give you the change!”

“What’s the matter? This medicine is actually a hundred Wen per set in the medical hall?”

Nie Wu was completely dumbfounded.

Mo Ruyue had said before that one dose of this medicine a day would take at least three months to half a year for it to be effective. It would still be effective, and he would have to continue changing the prescription if he wanted to recover.

One hundred Wen a day, ten days would be one tael of silver, three months would be six taels of silver, how could he afford it!

Mo Ruyue only needed to look at his expression to know that he had evil thoughts in his heart again. However, the news that his mother’s illness could be cured had already been spread, so he probably wouldn’t act rashly.

“There is a herb in this prescription that can be found in the mountains. It is also the most expensive and irreplaceable herb. If you can find it in the mountains, you can save at least 70 Wen.”

In the end, she still gave the old lady a chance to live. If Nie Wu still wanted to kill the old lady, it could only mean that his killing intent had been aroused. No matter what he did, it would end up like this.

“What… What kind of medicine?” Huang Five quickly asked.

As long as he could save money, it was just going into the mountains to pick herbs. What was so difficult about that?

Mo Ruyue turned around and returned to the courtyard. She took a very strange plant from the rack where the herbs were hanging and walked over to give it to Nie Wu.

“Take a good look. This is called iron-skin Dendrobium, and its market price is quite expensive. If you can find it, your mother’s illness will be easily cured.”

Nie Wu reached out and wanted to take it, but Mo Ruyue pulled her hand back.

“You want it? He had to exchange for it with money. This one isn’t expensive, I’ll sell it to you at a cheap price of twenty silver taels. ”

Of course, Nie Wu couldn’t afford to buy the iron-skin Dendrobium. If he had the money, he might as well buy the medicine from the clinic. Instead, he could finish the three-month treatment.

Seeing that Mo Ruyue really wasn’t willing to give him the medicine for free or at a lower price, fifth Nie could only go back and write an IOU to his sixth uncle. He borrowed 300 Wen to buy six days’ worth of medicine. He estimated that these six days would be enough for him to enter the mountain to find the Dendrobium candids.

As for after finding the medicine, he could give a little to his mother and sell the rest to the medicine shop. He could even make a profit!

Not long after Nie Wu left with the medicine, someone knocked on Mo Ruyue’s door again. This time, she had only turned around and left a few steps.

After opening the door, there were a few familiar-looking villagers whose names she couldn’t remember. Each of them was holding a basket of vegetables or chickens and ducks in their hands. They all had smiles on their faces and looked much more enthusiastic than usual.

“The Qin Family, are you busy?”

One of the maids took the lead to greet Mo Ruyue.

“Yeah, I’m busy.”

Mo Ruyue’s short and concise reply made the smiles on the neighbors’ faces freeze. For a moment, they didn’t know how to continue the rest of the sentence.

She knew that as long as she made a move once, it would cause more trouble in the future. Wasn’t it just like this, trouble came knocking on her door one after another?

“Hehe, it’s like this, Qin Family. We just saw fifth Nie leaving your place with a few doses of medicine in his hand. Are these the medicine you prescribed for his mother?”

The Auntie who had started the conversation just now was still thick-skinned and continued the topic.

Mo Ruyue simply didn’t say anything. He just raised his eyebrows and looked at her, waiting to see what else she wanted to say.

“We were thinking that since we’re all neighbors, there might have been some misunderstandings in the past. Let’s clear them up, and in the future, everyone will love each other and get along in harmony. How good would that be?”

The hairpin even laughed a few times after saying that, and the stiff laughter made the atmosphere even more awkward.

“Juan Zi, just tell me what you want to do here. Let’s get straight to the point. I still have a lot of household chores to do.”

Mo Ruyue was a little annoyed by their beating around the bush, so she might as well break through that layer of window paper.

The villagers could also see that Mo Ruyue’s mood wasn’t right. They thought about how Sixth Uncle and fifth Nie had come separately several times just now. They must have annoyed her because of the matter of asking for medicine.
