Chapter 249 Who did you see again?

Luo Shu was stirring up the emotions of the crowd outside the car, while Xu Rongrong was drinking tea and listening to everyone's discussions inside the car.

Seeing the master and servant like this, Mu Rong raised the corners of his lips and smiled slightly.

The sight of his little girl drinking tea and joining in the fun actually gave him an indescribable sense of relief.

As Xu Rongrong expected, Luo Shu's foreshadowing caused a lot of discussion among the crowd.

"That makes sense. Isn't Hu San deliberately trying to destroy the reputation of the miracle doctor?"

"But what good would it do for a coolie like Hu San to do such a thing?"

"...Do you think the miracle doctor might have offended someone? Did they deliberately send Hu San to cause trouble?" "This...who could a miracle doctor offend by curing illnesses and saving lives?"

Seeing this, Luo Shu joined the discussion: "This is about curing illnesses and saving lives... I've been in the capital for over ten years, and this is the first time I've seen someone giving out medicine for free... Is this why they've offended people?"

Her words made everyone suddenly enlightened:

"Who says it's not? This medicine costs silver!"

"No wonder Hu San has the money to visit brothels. I'm afraid the people outside must have spent a lot of money!"

Seeing everyone discussing this, Luo Shu quietly disappeared into the crowd.

When Shu Qing turned around, he could no longer see Luo Shu.

Only at this time did he realize that it was his colleagues who were behind today's incident, and the county lady must have already seen through the trick, which was why she asked Luo Shu to come and help.

They have already done enough. If Luo Shu continues, it will probably arouse suspicion... In this case, the rest depends on him.

Shu Qing cleared his throat. "The news of my medicine distribution was leaked early. If this has caused displeasure among some of my colleagues in the capital, I apologize in advance... I have no intention of stealing your business. I am a doctor with a kind heart. I have just arrived in the capital, and I couldn't bear to see the poor people suffering from spring coughs, so I offered the medicine."

After he finished speaking, he looked around. "If this has angered you all and you've sent people to my door to cause trouble, I can understand. But... you didn't expect that you would have chosen such a ruthless person. He almost caused a death! If I hadn't seen this pneumothorax before and knew how to treat it, I'm afraid this woman would have died today! If she really died, not only would it ruin the reputation of my shop, I'm afraid he would have controlled you too, and you would have become his moneybags for life."

Shu Qing spoke so forcefully that some people in the crowd lowered their heads and quietly retreated.

As fellow doctors, who would really harm the lives of innocent people?

The man named Hu San's legs were shaking and he could not stand.

He didn't expect that his plan would be discovered so quickly!

A few days ago, when he was working as a laborer in a cart shop carrying goods for two medicinal material merchants, he heard the two men talking about how the new doctor had broken the rules in the capital and they wanted to find an opportunity to teach him a lesson.

This was exactly what he wanted.

Last month, when he was moving a horse trough to a brothel, he ran into the popular girl Xuan Ye.

Just a glance back from the other party was enough to make him lose his mind.

But he knew very well that even if he spent all his money he could not enter Miss Xuanye's house, so he could only peek at her from a distance.

Now that he has suddenly got the opportunity to make money, how could he give it up?

So he took the opportunity to approach the two drug dealers and volunteered to help them solve their problem. Perhaps because he looked very honest and loyal, the drug dealers did not expect him to be so cruel and ruthless. Therefore, after only a short discussion, the two agreed to his request and were even willing to give him a deposit of 20 taels of silver!

This is twenty taels... He has never seen so much silver in his life!

After receiving the deposit, he went to the brothel that night.

Twenty taels of silver was not enough to spend the night at Miss Xuanye's place, but it was enough to have a few drinks.

So that night, he stayed in Miss Xuanye's room for an hour. Not only could he listen to her singing, but he could also drink from her fair hands, and from time to time he could touch them to satisfy his desire.

He was like being in a dream, completely intoxicated.

until……

After leaving the brothel, the cold wind blew away his drunkenness and brought him back to reality.

When I returned home and looked at my rough and stupid wife, a bad thought suddenly arose in my heart.

He had long lost interest in his own wife. He felt annoyed whenever he saw her. Even when he did have sex with her, he would force his eyes and finish it hastily. How could any young girl arouse his excitement?

If I could take this opportunity to get rid of my wife and make a lot of money from the drugstore merchant, wouldn't that be killing two birds with one stone?

But how could he kill his wife in just a few days?

Then he remembered an incident that happened when he was working as a helper in a landlord's house in the countryside.

A landowner's foolish son was playing in the fields when he was hit by a fallen tree. Although he survived, he suffered from excruciating chest pain. Doctors from all over the town were called in, but none of them could help. They couldn't even explain the boy's condition, let alone save him.

In the end, the lively kid suffocated to death two days later. The disease came on so quickly, and there was no cure. Wasn't this the perfect way to die for his stinky wife?

So he followed suit...

She was already dying yesterday, so he dragged it out for a whole day and didn't sleep last night: he was afraid that she would not die, and he was also afraid that she would not die in front of the pharmacy.

But who would have thought that even though everything had been planned out, she was actually saved by someone!

Not only that, even his own plan was exposed. How could he face people in the future?

Just as he was worried about his reputation, the crowd dispersed to both sides.

Several Jingzhao Yin officials came over and asked, "I heard there was an attempted murder here?"

……

Hu San was taken away by the police, shouting that he was wronged. Shu Qing, on the other hand, was surrounded by people calling him a miracle doctor and a bodhisattva. It was the first time in over thirty years that he had been treated with such respect, and he was trembling all over.

After watching this farce, Mu Rong in the carriage poured another cup of hot tea for Xu Rongrong: "Rongrong, did you get what you wished for?"

Xu Rongrong smiled: "This can be considered a small achievement."

After saying that, she added, "It's often said that men become bad once they have money, and it really is true for me."

Mu Rong: "..." He felt like he was being implied.

With a strong desire to survive, he put down the teapot and looked at Xu Rongrong with burning eyes: "I am quite rich now."

The light in his eyes seemed to say: I am very rich now, and I will naturally not become bad because of money in the future.

Xu Rongrong looked at him strangely: "No one said anything about you..."

"That's just my own wishful thinking," Mu Rong agreed. The atmosphere in the carriage suddenly became relaxed, and Mu Rong produced a bag of snacks from nowhere. He carefully spread them out on the table and said, "After watching the excitement all morning, I'm going to catch up."

After saying that, he picked up a piece of red bean cake and wanted to feed it into Xu Rongrong's mouth.

But... Xu Rongrong was fully aware of the movements of the people around her, and her eyes were staring out the window without blinking.
