BXBX NOVEL Chapter 70 - 70 The Sign Has Been Smashed
Mo Ruyue didn’t speak tactfully and implicitly just because they were young.
Subtlety was meant for mature and smart people. The babies were smart but not mature enough, so it was obvious that euphemistic words would not work.
Even though he was so straightforward, Tang Tang and Si Bao still looked lost. Er Bao and San Bao were still better off. They were trying very hard to understand the meaning of Mo Ruyue’s words. Da Bao, on the other hand, was too mature for his age. There was no need to worry about him.
“Mother, are you saying that in the future, we can’t just be kind people?”
San Bao thought for a long time and explained her understanding of that sentence. Mo Ruyue nodded. “Yes. For example, this time, when you see the person who abandoned the old grandma, you should think about his character. If he saved the old grandma, will you support him until the end?”
“Do you think others will be grateful to you or scold you for being meddlesome? You can’t do things on impulse, you have to think through everything. I’ve taught you this more than once. ”
Mo Ruyue explained in detail this time. With such an analysis, the babies could understand it more directly.
“Mother, we know we were wrong. We won’t do it again.”
Er Bao was still speaking on behalf of everyone. The other babies were nodding their heads like chicks pecking at rice. Mo Ruyue’s lips curled up slightly. A faint smile could be seen but she quickly regained her calm expression.
“Alright, remember what I said. Don’t be a bad person.”
Although Mo Ruyue didn’t want the babies to become the big villains according to the plot in the book, she also didn’t want them to become good people who had no principles and only knew how to be kind.
This world was too complicated and could not accommodate pure things, whether they were pure evil or pure good.
Although the storm caused by the rescue had temporarily come to an end, Mo Ruyue knew very well that the troublesome days were still ahead.
As the villagers entered the city to go to the market and bragged while drinking tea in the teahouse, they spread the news of Divine Physician Qin’s reputation being smashed by others.
Divine Physician Qin’s reputation was well-known within a hundred miles. Now that his reputation was destroyed by an unknown widow, this matter immediately caused a huge uproar.
These words spread to the ears of a man named Chen An. He had originally come to the teahouse to drink tea and pass the time. He did not expect to hear such news.
After the referee was stunned for a moment, he immediately threw a few wens of tea money on the table and shouted, “Bill please!”
Then, he ran away.
This Chen An was the servant of the magistrate and had a distant blood relationship with him. He was now considered a popular person in front of the magistrate and had gained his trust.
“Master, master, it’s terrible!”
When Chen An returned to the government office, he went straight to the backyard. The county magistrate’s family lived in the backyard of the government office, so they did not have to travel back and forth every day.
“Chen An, why are you shouting in such a panic? What a disgrace!”
The county magistrate was also surnamed Chen. He was a middle-aged man in his forties, with a fair face and a medium build. If he took off his official robes and changed into ordinary clothes, he would be no different from the ordinary people on the street.
When he saw Chen An running over while shouting, he frowned and could not help but scold him.
“Master, it’s not that this humble one doesn’t know the rules. It’s just that this humble one heard a piece of great news just now. Therefore, I hurriedly came back to report it to you!”
Chen An ran to the magistrate and said hurriedly without even wiping his sweat.
“What’s the matter that caused you to make such a big fuss and even made you run like this?”
Although the county magistrate was reprimanding Chen An, his curiosity was piqued by him. He knew his servant very well. He was not a very loud person. Something must have happened to make him react so strongly.
“Old master, I was drinking tea in the teahouse just now. I heard someone say that Divine Doctor Qin from the Qin Village had his signboard smashed!”
The magistrate was shocked, but before he could ask, the second bolt of lightning struck.
“The one who smashed his sign is a widow!”
“Who, who spread such outrageous rumors? Do you not know how big is Divine Doctor Qin’s name? How could his reputation be ruined by a widow? What a bunch of nonsense!”
The magistrate was dumbfounded. He only snapped back to his senses after a long time.
Chen An knew that the magistrate would react this way, so he immediately explained, “Old master, this little one doesn’t dare to speak nonsense. This rumor was spread by the people of the Qin Village, and it wasn’t just one person who said it. The others who came with them all admitted it and said it with great detail. It seems that it is true, so this little one didn’t dare to neglect it and immediately came back to report to you!”
“Oh? Then what did they say? Tell this old master in detail!”
When the county magistrate heard this, he had the intention to continue asking. If only one person said it, it might be a gimmick to attract attention, but if everyone in the Qin village said it, then it shouldn’t be wrong.
After all, Divine Doctor Qin was living in the Qin village. If they spread lies, wouldn’t they offend him? How could they be close to him and invite him to treat them in the future?
Chen An immediately repeated what he had heard in the teahouse.
It was just that the patient that Divine Doctor Qin had announced almost dead was cured by a widow. At that time, Divine Doctor Qin even tried to take credit for the patient’s recovery. Unexpectedly, the patient actually woke up and directly proved that he was saved by the widow. At that time, Divine Doctor Qin was embarrassed and returned to the courtyard in anger. He had not appeared in front of people for a few days.
“Oh? That means the widow really has some ability?”
When Magistrate Liu heard this, he was already 70-80% convinced. At the same time, he had a strong interest in the widow in this matter.
How brilliant must one’s medical skills be to make Divine Doctor Qin lose face? He also had the thought of inviting the widow over, because his wife also had a strange illness. He did not know how many doctors she had seen and how many medicines she had taken, but they had not been effective.
Previously, his grandfather had invited Divine Doctor Qin, but he was no different from the other doctors. No, it should be said that there were some differences. After taking Divine Doctor Qin’s medicine, the time for his wife’s strange illness to act up was slightly longer, but that was all.
“Master, I was thinking, why don’t we invite that widow to see if she can cure Madam’s illness?”
Chen An suggested carefully.
Because of the county magistrate’s wife’s illness, it had been a long time since she had gone out to meet guests. In the officialdom, interpersonal relationships between the Furens were also very important. The so-called virtuous wife did not only mean that she could manage the inner residence well, but she also had to make connections with the official’s wives, form alliances, and so on. This could also be of great help to her husband in the officialdom.
