158 Famous In One Battle
The four legs of her bed were equipped with wheels, so it was convenient for her to push and pull back and forth. So, even if she could only lie on the bed and not move, she could still be pushed out to the courtyard to bask in the sun.
Although she had gone through a major operation, the old womanâs mental state seemed to be in good condition. She was no longer in the state of near death that she was in when she first appeared in front of people. The death aura on her face had also disappeared. She seemed to have really been saved.
But how was that possible?
The family members who were taking care of these people immediately spread the news, and the entire county was in an uproar again.
The people who originally believed that the old woman was dead became fence-sitters again. They were divided into two sides, one believing and one not believing, and began to wrangle with each other.
As more and more patients and family members witnessed the old woman, and some even saw the old womanâs son walking in and out of Huichun Hall with a smile on his face, the voices of disbelief gradually weakened.
Finally, someone could not help but stop the patientâs family members on the street and asked the old womanâs son directly, âBrother, did your mother really get cured by that Lady Qin?â
The old ladyâs son nodded. âThatâs right. If it wasnât for Lady Qin, Iâm afraid my mother would really be gone.â
âDonât tell me youâre deliberately saying this because youâve taken money from Huichun Hall?â
Someone in the dark shouted, and the old womanâs sonâs face suddenly sank. He looked around and said angrily, âWhich bastard is hiding his head and saying such disgraceful words? Why? Are you afraid of being beaten up if I see you? ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âLet me tell you, although I canât afford such an expensive surgery, Iâm not crazy enough to earn this kind of money. Thatâs my mother, and I can even give up my life to save her. I canât allow anyone to slander my motherâs savior!â
He looked carefully at the crowd of people who had gathered to watch the show and said fiercely, âIf I see anyone cursing my mother again, even if Iâm going to be arrested by the authorities and be beheaded, Iâll beat him to death or Iâm not raised by anyone!â
After he finished speaking, he pushed away the people in front of him and hurried back to Huichun Hall. Now, in addition to the medicine boy taking care of the old woman, he also had to learn some nursing knowledge so that the old woman could receive a certain amount of care when she was discharged in the future.
âDid you see that? It doesnât look like heâs acting, she should really have been saved!â
Although someone was shocked by the old womanâs sonâs attitude, he still whispered to the person next to him after he came back to his senses.
âThatâs right. He looked like a filial son before. He shouldnât have gone to the extent of earning that kind of money. Iâm afraid he really was cured!â
âIf I were him, Iâd be angry too if someone spread such rumors about my mother and her savior. Beating up those people who spread the rumors is already a light punishment. Theyâre really playing with their lives!â
As they talked, they slowly dispersed. As they spread the news by word of mouth, the patientâs family personally proved that the old woman was not dead. Instead, the news that the old woman was getting better spread even faster and wider than the rumors. Soon, it was the turn of those who continued to spread the rumors to be laughed at.
On the third day, when Mo Ruyue came to give medical services, what welcomed her was not ridicule and disdain, but enthusiasm and admiration. Now, no one doubted her medical skills anymore. She became famous after this battle and solidified her reputation as a Divine Doctor.
As for Mo Ruyue herself, whether it was doubt or fanatical admiration, none of it had any effect on her. Her calm appearance also made Imperial Doctor Tian nod in approval in his heart.
For a woman to have such magnanimity, it really made men like them feel ashamed.
Half a month after the surgery, the old woman was finally going to be discharged.
During this period of time, Mo Ruyue had used some of the spring water in her interspace to boil medicine for her. She had also added some spirit herbs that she had picked from the âvalley of treasuresâ. This allowed her wounds to heal at a faster rate, and her bodyâs recovery speed was much faster than expected.
After a consultation with Mo Ruyue, Imperial Doctor Tian, and a few other doctors, the decision was made to let the old woman be discharged.
The weather was excellent that day. Although there was still an unbearable heat, there were many clouds in the sky, which could block the harsh sunlight and lower the scorching temperature slightly.
Mo Ruyue and Imperial physician Tian personally sent the old woman out. At this time, the old woman was sitting on a strange chair with wheels. She was pushed out by the two of them together, while her son was pulling the ox-cart and waiting excitedly outside the Huichun Hall.
âLady Qin, Elder Tian, how can I thank you for saving my mother? Without you, my mother, she â¦â
The old ladyâs son came forward, his voice choked with emotion. As he spoke, he suddenly knelt down with a âplopâ.
âAiya, no need. Quickly get up.â
Imperial Doctor Tian hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him, but he was stopped by Mo Ruyue.
âElder Tian, just accept his kneel. If you didnât provide me with the operating theater and the corresponding equipment, I wouldnât have been able to save her with my skills. They canât even afford the expensive surgery fee, not to mention the treatment and care for this half a month.â
Mo Ruyue didnât like people kneeling down at random, whether it was to beg for mercy or to show gratitude. But she and Imperial Doctor Tian could bear this manâs kneeling.
When Imperial Doctor Tian heard these words, he retracted his hand. In the end, he had to accept this kneel.
âYour motherâs life wasnât easy to come by. I hope you can cherish it. The previous oneâ¦â
Mo Ruyue suddenly paused. After a short silence, she continued, âI hope your mother wonât follow that old manâs footsteps.â
âNo, Madam Qin, absolutely not! I spent so much effort to save her, not to let her go on that road again. Donât worry, I wonât!â
The man shook his head like a rattle. He knew very well who the old man Mo Ruyue was talking about and what she meant by that.
âThatâs good.â
Mo Ruyue nodded slightly, then turned to the old woman and said, âOld woman, go back and rest well. Youâre recovering well, and your son is very filial. Donât take things too hard and just enjoy your old age.â
The old ladyâs eyes were filled with tears. Her tears finally flowed down uncontrollably at this time. She held Mo Ruyueâs hand tightly and didnât let go.
She couldnât express her gratitude with words, but her actions were more powerful than words.
After the old womanâs son carried his mother onto the ox-cart and settled her down, he was ready to lead the ox away. He didnât expect Mo Ruyue to stop him and say, âTake the wheelchair with you. Itâll be more convenient for the old woman to move.â
The man was stunned. He shook his head and waved his hand. âNo, Madam Qin, we canât take your things for free. Even the medicine my mother is drinking now is from you, we really canât take anything else.â
âCut the crap. Just take it. This wheelchair was made for your mother.â
Mo Ruyue furrowed her brows. How much did he owe her now? Was it enough? It would be better to take the things and go home to serve his mother.
The man finally walked over and moved the chair with wheels onto the ox cart.
