193 Let’s Hurry Up and Leave
“The poisonous blood has been squeezed out. I’ll apply some medicine. Qingyuan might have a fever tonight. Boil the fever medicine I left for him and give it to him. Take good care of him. He’ll be suffering for a few days. Just take good care of him.”
“Auntie, can we add the money for the medicine into the fine and give it to you together?”
Qin Qingfei asked carefully.
“The fine is decided by the government. As for the money for the medicine, forget it. Just don’t come to my house and cause trouble.”
Mo Ruyue said rudely, making Qin Qingfei’s face turn red for no reason. She only felt that her face and neck were hot, and she couldn’t lift her head up at all.
“Qingfei, you should be glad that Lady Qin has given you two nephews and nieces back. Otherwise, you’ll be crying about this today!”
A helpful aunt couldn’t help but interrupt.
“That’s right, that’s right, they all say that one stroke can’t produce two Qin characters. If it wasn’t for the old madam’s incessant demands, how good would it be for this family of two to be filial and help out? It wouldn’t be like this now.”
“Alright, alright, stop talking. You’re disturbing Lady Qin’s treatment.”
Before the other aunt could finish her words, she was interrupted by someone, who kept winking at her.
Why does this person not have any judgment at all, bringing up a sore spot? These two families are now quarreling like black-eyed chickens, and Lady Qin has just sent her mother-in-law to the prison. What filial piety and help, isn’t this slapping other people’s face!
Mo Ruyue naturally wouldn’t take those people’s words to heart. She came to save Qin Qingyuan to expose the second branch’s trick of injuring herself. She still remembered Qin Qingyuan’s appearance when he schemed against the five babies and that vicious plan.
It was just that he was still young. If he were older, she might even help him die faster, let alone save him.
Now that she had saved his life, she did not expect him to be grateful, as long as he was not an ungrateful Wolf. But if he was still so bad, she did not mind waiting for the time to come and help Tian Xing.
After applying the medicine on Qin Qingyuan’s wound, Mo Ruyue did not bandage it. Instead, she exposed the wound to the air to prevent it from rotting due to the snake’s poison.
“Alright, it’ll be fine in five days at the latest and three days at the earliest.”
Mo Ruyue was about to pick up the medicine box when someone suddenly pulled on her back.
“Eldest Sister-in-law, can my family’s big brother Yuan really get better? Why don’t you keep an eye on him for a while? I’m afraid, I’m really afraid that something will happen to him again!”
Madam Wang clutched onto Mo Ruyue’s medicine box as if she was holding onto a life-saving straw. She was afraid that if she let go, Mo Ruyue would fly away from her eyes.
“The poisoned blood has been squeezed out, the antidote has been injected, and the medicine has been applied. All the medicine that should be boiled is for you. I’ve done everything I can. Now, it’s your job to take care of his recovery. Do I have to do it too?”
Mo Ruyue said indifferently. She glanced at Madam Wang’s hand that was holding her strap. Her eyes were cold, like a knife stabbing into Madam Wang’s hand, making her unconsciously let go.
It wasn’t until Mo Ruyue walked out of the door that the few maids in the room started to discuss again.
“Aiya, this Lady Qin’s eyes are really fierce. I’ve seen it so many times, but I still shiver every time I see it.”
“Isn’t that so? We can’t wait to avoid such a character, so why are there still people who are insensible enough to keep coming? Haven’t you been beaten up enough?”
“This matter, isn’t it just…”
“Cough! The injuries have been treated, so it’s time for us to leave. Look, they’re feeling vexed right now, so why are we still here? Let’s go, let’s go, let’s hurry!”
The few of them were in a heated discussion. There was still a caretaker who inadvertently caught a glimpse of Madam Wang standing to the side. He suddenly remembered that this was not under the big locust tree at the village entrance, but the Qin family’s old residence, the territory of the Qin family’s second branch.
She quickly reminded them to shut their mouths and pushed each other out with embarrassed smiles on their faces. It didn’t take long for these people to all leave.
Madam Née Wang couldn’t care less about these things. Her heart was on Qin Qingyuan, and those words just now were like a gust of wind that blew past her ears and disappeared.
“Mother, what about brother? I don’t know how to cook medicine.”
Qin Qingfei looked at the medicine bag in her hand and said awkwardly.
Even though her family had moved from the new house to the old house, she was still living a life without touching anything. Her mother’s family had a lot of things to do, and she was still able to marry into a good family and enjoy life.
Therefore, the most important housework she had done now was pouring a bowl of water and carrying a dish. She had not even touched a piece of firewood, so how could she cook medicine?
“Qingfei, you stay here and look after your brother. If he wakes up in pain or thirst, call for mother!”
Madam Wang took the medicine bag and turned to look at Qin Qingyuan, who was lying on the bed. He had not woken up since he fainted from the pain. How could she not be worried?
After an unknown amount of time, Qin Xu stumbled through the door with a few bundles of wild vegetables in his arms. He looked back and kicked the door shut before throwing the bundles of wild vegetables on the ground. He hummed a song with his hands behind his back and walked in, only to see Madam Wang squatting on the ground and cooking medicine.
“How is it, did it work? My son has suffered. When we save money, let’s go to a restaurant in the county town to make up for it!”
Seeing this, Qin Xu knew that the original plan had been implemented, so he immediately asked with concern.
“Husband, our baby Qingyuan was almost gone!”
As soon as Madam Wang saw Qin Xu coming back, it was as if she suddenly had a backbone. Although this backbone had never existed, she really couldn’t find anyone else to talk to about this.
“What? What’s going on?”
Qin Xu’s eyes widened when he heard this.
Madam Née Wang’s eyes reddened, and tears the size of beans fell down like a broken line. However, her weeping appearance not only did not arouse Qin Xu’s pity, but it also made him roar in annoyance.
“Cry, cry, cry, you only know how to cry. If you have anything to say, just say it!”
Qin Xu’s roar scared Madam Wang’s tears away. She blankly repeated what had happened just now. At this time, she also remembered all the gossiping words of those aunts and poured them all out to Qin Xu like beans from a bamboo tube.
“They actually said that? My Qin family’s child was bitten by a snake, and they didn’t say they would help, but they actually caused trouble and gossiped about it? Aren’t they afraid of being struck by lightning?”
Qin Xu was so angry that he stomped his feet. He had originally planned it well, so how did it suddenly become like this?
“Husband, you should go and see brother Qing. The child has suffered a lot. He is still groggy and can’t get out of bed.”
Madam Née Wang didn’t notice Qin Xu’s strange behavior and only cared about letting her man take a look at the child. Although Mo Ruyue had given her medicine, who knew if it would be effective? It was better to send the child to the county and find a proper doctor to see him.
