Farmer's wife: My husband came back and the house was in chaos
Chapter 7: Pills? Made of flour
Thinking of Yinuo lying on the bed, Liu Shuyue ran into the room and touched Yinuo's forehead: "It's okay, the fever is gone."
"Mom, Yinuo just caught a cold. I wiped his body, and he sweated under the quilt, and his fever went away."
"Thank God, I didn't get hurt by that charlatan in the yard."
Liu Shuyue clasped her hands together and bowed towards the sky.
Yao Qingnian was stunned for a moment, and then burst out laughing at Liu Shuyue's behavior.
"What are you laughing laughing?!"
"I didn't, mother. It's dawn. Go and call the village chief and everyone else over!"
"Well, you keep an eye on him. I'll be there soon."
Liu Shuyue rushed out of the door in a hurry.
Yao Qingnian cheered himself up and washed up, then checked Yinuo. After making sure there was nothing wrong, he took some cold medicine and put it aside to give him after breakfast.
A moment later, Liu Shuyue came back with his men.
On the way, Liu Shuyue told the village chief Ye Dagang about the situation. When the village chief heard about it, he gathered the villagers and rushed over quickly.
"Isn't this a miracle doctor? Why is he tied up here?" The uninformed villagers were confused.
"Everyone, he is not a miracle doctor, but a charlatan! Those pills you bought are fake, made of flour."
The original owner had a very bad reputation in the village, and no one believed what Yao Qingnian said.
"Help! Help me! Last night I was called by this family to treat their child, but I was tied up and accused of being a liar. They beat me up without any reason."
Doctor Jin saw that the villagers were all speaking up for him and thought that there was room for the situation to turn around, so he quickly thought of a way to act pitiful.
"Yao Qingnian, the miracle doctor cured a man who had been paralyzed for more than ten years in public. What evidence do you have to say that he is a liar?"
"Yes!" everyone shouted in unison.
"He paid that guy to act, there's nothing wrong with him, he just wanted everyone to believe him!"
As soon as the words came out, the villagers whispered to each other. According to their understanding,
It is unlikely that Liu Shuyue would speak for Yao Qingnian. Is this true?
"If you let me go, I won't give you the elixir for a penny." When they heard that there was a gift, many people were tempted. They heard that the elixir was very valuable, one tael of silver per piece.
"Yao Qingnian, you'd better release him! If anything happens to him, you will be held responsible, and it will also affect the reputation of our village. Don't let a bad apple ruin the whole village!"
The widow Wang Xiu'e, who had always been at odds with Yao Qingnian, heard that there was elixir to be taken and wanted to disgust Yao Qingnian, so she shouted.
"Village chief, whether he is a liar or not, why don't we call a doctor to check him out and find out?"
Yao Qingnian looked calm and smiled leisurely.
"Yao Qingnian is right, someone go get a doctor!"
The village chief didn't believe Yao Qingnian, he just didn't want the villagers to be cheated. To be on the safe side, he would rather believe it than not.
A man volunteered to call the doctor.
The village chief led people to where Doctor Jin lived, took out Doctor Jin's bag, and found the box of pills.
"The doctor is here!" The man ran back breathlessly, carrying the only old doctor in the village on his back.
"Ouch, slow down, my bones are about to fall apart!"
"Doctor Lu, come and take a look. Are these pills real or fake?"
The old doctor stood up straight before slowly taking the pill, taking a look at it, and then sniffing it. He then said, "What kind of a shitty pill is this? It doesn't contain any medicine at all! It's clearly just flour mixed with something else that turned it black."
"What? This pill is actually made of flour!!"
"Doctor Lu, are you sure?"
The village chief asked hesitantly.
"I am not so old and blind that I can't even tell the difference between flour and herbs! If you don't believe me, just break it open and see for yourself!"
An auntie broke it open and saw that it was just a flour ball! No wonder Doctor Jin was so generous just now, saying that if they let him go, he would give the pills to everyone. Is this thing worth one or two taels?
"Bah! You liar! How dare you lie to us! Take out our money now!"
"What a misunderstanding! How could it be flour? This is my secret recipe passed down from my ancestors! You've got it wrong!"
Doctor Jin was still trying to argue, but the villagers didn't buy it at all and shouted angrily at him to pay compensation.
"Look! His beard is fake too!"
Someone pointed at Doctor Jin, and everyone looked over and found that his beard had fallen off, revealing his true face.
A group of people surrounded Doctor Jin with ferocious faces. No one knew who started the fight first, but they all rushed up and started punching and kicking him.
"Stop it! Don't beat him to death!"
The village chief was worried that someone might be killed, so he quickly spoke out to stop them.
The villagers then stopped. Yao Qingnian saw that one of the elder brothers kicked him twice more at the end. Tsk tsk!
"Alright, take him away and hand him over to the government! Hand him over to the government for punishment. Those of you who bought the dough balls, come register with me and wait for the government to investigate!"
The village chief found someone to carry the half-dead Doctor Jin away.
Before leaving, the village chief looked at Yao Qingnian, who was a completely different person from before, and said, "Today's incident was all thanks to the wife of the Lu family. You must thank her very much, otherwise everyone would still be in the dark!"
"Yes! Yao Qingnian, thanks to you this time! Otherwise, the hard-earned money that everyone has saved all year long would be swindled away by this rotten thing!"
"It's just a small favor, nothing to mention!" Yao Qingnian smiled, revealing her neat teeth.
The villagers were moved to tears of gratitude and their impression of Yao Qingnian changed.
After everyone left, Liu Shuyue went to the county town to buy grain, otherwise she would run out of food.
Dragging her tired body towards the door, Yao Qingnian remembered that she had not had breakfast, so she took an apple from the space and handed it to her.
"Mom, I bought these apples from the peddler earlier. You can take them with you on the road."
The red fruit in her hand gradually brightened Liu Shuyue's dull eyes.
"Keep it for yourself or Yinuo. I ate a lot of noodles last night and I'm still a little full now!"
"You can take it. I'll keep Yinuo's and my own share!"
Liu Shuyue was not a pretentious person. Seeing that she couldn't refuse, she put the apple in her pocket and went out.
Yao Qingnian returned to the room and saw Yinuo lying on the bed, pale and weak. His face was sallow due to long-term malnutrition, his cheekbones were sunken, and his fingernails were full of black dirt. He looked very pitiful. It was all the fault of the original owner!
She entered the space and prepared to take out a box of milk to supplement the child's nutrition.
She was stunned when she opened the refrigerator. She clearly remembered that there were only five boxes of milk. She drank one box yesterday, so there should only be four boxes left. How come there were still some? Did she remember it wrong?
Looking at the apples again, she just gave one to her mother-in-law, and now there are six left.
To verify her guess, she took out another one. Now there were four boxes of milk and five apples in the refrigerator.
