The beginning of the counterattack! The time-traveling boss is famous in Beijing
Chapter 89 Repaying kindness with hatred
Qin Ruo repeated this action several times slowly, until Damao could no longer spit out anything. Then she took out a pill and stuffed it into Damao's mouth.
After a while, the pale blue color on Damao's face had faded away, and his complexion gradually returned to normal.
Although he still looked very weak, his expression had now calmed down compared to his previous facial features which were wrinkled in pain.
Seeing that Damao was rescued, cheers suddenly broke out among the crowd.
"Good! Damao is a very lucky kid. Fortunately, he met A Ruo."
"It's amazing. I didn't expect you, Ruo, to have this skill."
"I think Ah Ruo's medical skills are no worse than Doctor Zhou's."
"Thanks to Ah Ruo in Damao, I didn't get drugged, otherwise I would have been laughed at for the rest of my life."
If Qin Ruo had not intervened, the Chen family's child would definitely not have been saved.
Even if Doctor Zhou were here today, it is hard to say whether the child could be saved.
At this moment, the villagers were full of admiration for Qin Ruo and praised her in various ways.
If people eat grains, they will inevitably get sick.
Qin Ruo knows medical skills, but there's no guarantee that one day she'll be in a desperate situation like the Chen family is today, and will have to ask for help from others.
"Okay, it's okay..." Qin Ruo straightened up and said indifferently.
She didn't react much to what everyone said.
"Grandma, Dad. I don't seem to be in pain anymore..." Damao lay in Jiang's arms, touched his belly, and grinned with a weak smile.
"Hurry, kowtow to your sister A Ruo." Jiang cried with joy and put A Mao on the ground, wanting him to kneel down and kowtow.
"You have just been detoxified and your body is still weak, so don't torture the child. This time it was just a fluke. The toxicity of Nandina domestica fruit is not a joke. You can't say whether your Chen family will be lucky next time."
Qin Ruo said in a calm tone, stopping Jiang's actions.
What she said was true. Maybe it was because the Nandina domestica fruit was a little sour, so Damao didn't eat too much.
If it's really an overdose, it won't be solved by a detoxification pill.
"Thank you! The Chen family will never forget your life-saving grace today. From now on, A Ruo, you are the benefactor of our Chen family." Chen Laosan knelt down again and kowtowed to Qin Ruo several times.
"I can't say I'm a benefactor, but I didn't save you in vain. I'll give you two taels of medical fee, and I'll send it to the Qin family when it's convenient for you."
Qin Ruo stood there without moving, with no emotion in her tone, and endured several kowtows from Chen Laosan.
She has no shortage of money, but she will never be a saint.
Two taels of silver were not even enough to cover the cost of the medicinal materials. She was just making her attitude clear. For her, nothing was taken for granted.
"Of course, of course. My Chen family will never default on our debts..." Jiang cried with joy and quickly spoke to express her sincerity.
"That's good. You or Aunt Jiang, please come with me. I'll prescribe a prescription for you. There is still some residual poison in Damao's body that needs to be cleared away." Qin Ruo turned around and was about to leave without saying anything more.
Seeing that her son was fine, Zhang Dahua jumped out again impatiently.
"Stop! Are you trying to extort money? I saw it all. How can you be so black-hearted! You want two taels of silver? Why don't you just rob me? You just gave my Da Mao a pill. Who knows if your medicine works? Bah! How dare you ask that?"
Seeing this, Old Lady Zhou and her father were about to stand up and scold Zhang Dahua, but Qin Ruo raised his hand to stop them.
The promise they had just made was slapped in the face by Zhang Dahua the next second, and Jiang and Chen Laosan's faces turned red.
"Zhang, shut up!"
Jiang and Chen Laosan were so furious that they almost shouted at Zhang Dahua in unison.
"Let her continue talking!" Qin Ruo sneered expressionlessly.
Zhang Dahua is a typical person who only remembers the food and not the beating. Qin Ruo's behavior made her feel that she had the upper hand.
She puffed out her chest and said proudly, "I was right. You feel guilty now, right? Isn't it your job to learn medicine and save lives? But you just saved my Da Mao by chance, and you dare to blackmail me for money?"
"Besides, you are just a country girl, what medical skills do you know? You are so eager to save my Da Mao, aren't you testing medicine on my Da Mao? If anything happens to my Da Mao in the future, I will never forgive you..."
Zhang Dahua stood with her hands on her hips, spitting everywhere, and became more and more excited as she spoke.
"Enough!" Jiang shouted coldly and slapped Zhang Dahua hard several times.
After hearing Zhang Dahua's unreasonable words, she really couldn't bear it anymore.
Looking at the villagers around her with eyes that looked like they were watching a play, Jiang's face turned blue and red.
After sending Zhang Dahua back to her parents' home for a few days of reflection, her parents said all the nice things they could and sent her back.
Looking at Da Mao, who was only five years old, Jiang finally softened his heart.
During the time that Zhang Dahua came back, he had always been humble in front of her.
He swore solemnly that he would never make the same mistake again, as if he really realized his mistake, but he didn't expect his true colors to be exposed so soon.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that if Qin Ruo did not take action, her grandson Damao would be dead.
But this idiot doesn't know what's good for him and insists on offending everyone.
She should have thought of it earlier. Zhang Dahua's bad habits were already incurable.
"A Ruo, I'm sorry! It was Zhang who was ignorant and caused you trouble." Jiang leaned over and apologized to Qin Ruo.
Qin Ruo chuckled: "It's just a dog barking, it's not worth my taking it to heart."
She turned her head and said to Zhang Dahua, "It seems that in your eyes, your Damao is not worth two taels of silver. If it weren't for Aunt Jiang, if it was you who ate Nandina domestica today, I wouldn't even look at it even if you gave me 100,000 gold coins."
"Don't tell me you don't have to pay for your daily medical treatment? The clinic is owned by your family, and those doctors are your real fathers?"
"Morality is about self-discipline, not about blaming others. I don't buy into moral blackmail. I'm a casual person. Whether I save someone or how much I charge depends on my mood. It's like this today, and it will be the same in the future!"
Qin Ruo glanced at the people around her and spoke bluntly and heartbreakingly.
Zhang Dahua's face turned pale and blue. She wanted to refute but couldn't utter a word.
Even the crowd watching felt a little guilty.
Just now, someone actually had an idea. Since Qin Ruo knows medicine, if he or his family members are unwell in the future, wouldn't it be like there is an extra free doctor?
They are from the same village, and we see each other every day. She would feel embarrassed to refuse, right?
"Moral kidnapping?" This statement is quite fresh. Qin Huaisheng repeated it silently in his mind and chewed on these words over and over again.
Every time he saw what happened to Qin Ruo a while ago, he missed the chance to witness it with his own eyes by chance.
What could be more powerful than seeing it with your own eyes?
