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

Chapter 203 - 203 Seeing A Doctor



203 Seeing A Doctor

She had only interacted with this person because of the illness of the prefect’s daughter. After this matter was over, she would become strangers with this middle-aged woman. It was not worth her any emotions.

Mo Ruyue was arranged to stay in a side room. Seeing that she could carry the personal seal of the magistrate and the letters, she was arranged to have tea and fruits. After all, no one knew what the old master’s attitude towards this woman would be.

It would be terrible if one accidentally offended the future noble.

After the time it took to make a cup of tea, there was the sound of footsteps outside, followed by a few regular knocks on the door.

The sound of hurried footsteps could be heard from the room next door. The person ran over and opened the door. Then, someone said, “Old Master, you’re here.”

“Yes, is she here?”

A dignified voice replied.

“She’s here, she’s waiting in the side room!”

After a short conversation, the footsteps headed toward the main house.

Mo Ruyue waited for the time it took to make half a cup of tea before the middle-aged woman from before came to the side room to call her.

“Lady Qin, right? Our eldest master is in the main room and is calling you over.”

“Thank you, Aunty.”

Mo Ruyue thanked her and got up to leave. When she passed by the middle-aged woman, she saw her hand reach out as if she was about to take something.

Seeing that Mo Ruyue didn’t say anything, the middle-aged woman pulled her hand back. Although she didn’t force it, she rolled her eyes and mumbled softly, “You bumpkin, you really have no rules.”

Mo Ruyue stopped and turned to stare at the middle-aged woman. Her gaze was so sharp that the middle-aged woman seemed to be stung. She couldn’t help but take a small step back, then looked away and hurriedly walked to the front to lead the way.

After all, this was the territory of the magistrate. Even if you want to beat a dog, you have to look at its master. Mo Ruyue only used her eyes to give a slight warning and did not do anything too extreme.

The courtyard didn’t look big from the front, but it was a different world after entering.

He must have bought the houses nearby because the land in the city was expensive. The courtyards here were next to each other, and there was only a wall separating the neighbors’ houses.

This courtyard had its walls broken through and made into the shape of a moon gate. It extended to the left and right, expanding the size of the entire courtyard several times.

The courtyard that Mo Ruyue entered from should be a side courtyard. She followed the middle-aged woman through two more courtyards before finally arriving at a relatively larger courtyard.

The middle-aged woman stood outside the main house and respectfully said, ” “Old master, I’ve brought the person.”

“Invite her in,”

A dignified voice sounded. The middle-aged woman responded, then pushed the door open and let Mo Ruyue in.

A man in his forties was sitting in an armchair in the room. He had a white face and a long beard, and his eyebrows were thin and long. When he glanced over, two rays of light flashed in his eyes. He was actually a martial arts practitioner and knew some martial arts.

Mo Ruyue was dressed in men’s clothes for the convenience of traveling, so she walked up to the magistrate and cupped her fists. “Mo Ruyue greets the magistrate.”

“You’re the famous Lady Qin? You’re younger than I thought.”

The magistrate sized Mo Ruyue up. Her face, which was still beautiful even after she had disguised herself as a man, flickered for a moment, but then quickly returned to normal.

He was also a person who had seen countless beautiful women, but Mo Ruyue could still be ranked in the top three. If she were to dress up in women’s clothes, she would probably be ranked first.

He secretly evaluated Mo Ruyue in his heart, and then thought of the rumors about her, and couldn’t help but become more interested.

“Magistrate, I’ve come here with some questions about your daughter’s surgery. I have to talk to you face-to-face. Otherwise, this surgery will definitely not be able to proceed.”

Mo Ruyue didn’t respond to the magistrate’s words, but went straight to the point and stated her intention.

“Of course we have to talk about this, but Lady Qin has come from far away and should rest first. My daughter is also recuperating in this house. Later, lady Qin can first take a look at her condition and then we can talk.”

The magistrate pointed to a chair next to him and said. Without waiting for Mo Ruyue’s response, he directly ordered the servant waiting outside to bring new tea and snacks. It seemed that he wanted to have a long talk with her.

“Since your daughter is in this courtyard, I’ll go and take a look at the situation first. If there are any problems, I’ll explain it to you in one go.”

Since Mo Ruyue had said so, the magistrate could not say anything more and nodded in agreement.

Very quickly, the middle-aged woman who had led the way for Mo Ruyue appeared again. This time, her expression was much more respectful. It was obvious that she had seen that the magistrate did not mind Mo Ruyue’s slightly rude attitude, so she had some thoughts in her heart.

“Take Lady Qin to the young lady’s room to take a look. If she needs anything, note it and serve her well. Don’t neglect her!”

As the magistrate spoke, he nodded to Mo Ruyue but she ignored him.

Mo Ruyue didn’t say much. She turned around and followed the middle-aged woman out. From the corner of her eye, she saw the magistrate staring at her with a meaningful gaze. That familiar feeling made her frown subconsciously after she turned her back to him.

As the middle-aged woman was leading the way, she kept on explaining the situation to Mo Ruyue.

“Lady Qin, our Lord’s surname is Duanmu and his name is Xize. Young Lady’s maiden name is Qing Xi, Qing as in Qingli and Xi as in Panxi. Our miss likes to be described as neat and tidy. Now that she’s sick in bed, she’s getting thinner day by day, so you shouldn’t stare at her for a long time.”

“My husband’s family name is Du. You can just call me Madam Du. If you need anything, just tell me, I will do my best.”

As she spoke, Mo Ruyue listened carefully. When she finished, the two of them had already arrived in front of a house facing south.

There were two little maidservants standing at the door. When they saw Du Niang bringing a strange woman over, they bowed to her and said, “Hello, Madam Du.”

“Is young miss asleep? This is Lady Qin, the doctor that Master has just found. She wants to give Young Lady a check-up.”

Madam Du asked the two maidservants.

“Miss hasn’t slept yet. She doesn’t have a good appetite today. She just ate some porridge and is resting inside.”

A pretty maid in green replied.

“Alright, you guys wait outside. If anything happens later, you guys have to be on guard.”

Madam Du reminded them and then brought Mo Ruyue into the room.

Although it looked like an ordinary room from the outside, the decoration inside was extremely extravagant. It was obvious that the magistrate loved his daughter very much. This could be considered as a way to make up for the pain caused by her illness.

Through the screen, she could vaguely see a person half-lying on the bed. There was a strong smell of medicine in the room. Even the best incense could not cover it, and it mixed into a strange smell.
