I am the Holy Poisoner, the Empress advised me to calm down

Zhang Yumo frowned and put down the account book in his hand: "Who is it?"

"There are people from the Liu family, and some I don't know." Huang Mazi lowered his voice and said, "I heard them talking about you treating Mr. Liu."

Zhang Yumo's heart sank. He knew this day would come eventually, but he hadn't expected it to come so soon.

"Let's go out and take a look."

As soon as he walked into the yard, Zhang Yumo heard all kinds of discussions.

"Is that him? He doesn't look like some miracle doctor."

"I heard that he was the son-in-law of the Wang family and was kicked out."

"What kind of ability can a son-in-law who was kicked out of the house have?"

"Maybe it was just a lucky coincidence that the blind cat caught a dead mouse and he was cured by chance."

Zhang Yumo glanced around. There were more than twenty people standing in the yard, men and women, young and old. Several people from the Liu family stood aside, looking a little embarrassed.

"Mr. Zhang." Liu Ying walked out of the crowd with an apologetic look on her face. "I'm so sorry, these people..."

"It's okay." Zhang Yumo said calmly, "Since you're here, tell me what's going on."

A middle-aged man in a Mao suit stood up. He was the one who had been discussing the issue most intensely earlier. "Are you Zhang Yumo?"

"it's me."

"My name is Zhao Jianguo, and I run a Chinese herbal medicine business in the city." The middle-aged man looked Zhang Yumo up and down. "I heard you cured Mr. Liu's illness?"

"Is there a problem?"

"Of course there's a problem." Zhao Jianguo sneered. "We all know about Mr. Liu's illness. It's been a long-standing problem, and even the city's experts are helpless. How can you, a young boy, cure it with just one pill?"

"What do you want to say?" Zhang Yumo's voice was a little cold.

"I suspect you're using hormone drugs," Zhao Jianguo argued confidently. "Some unscrupulous vendors are mixing hormones into traditional Chinese medicine. While they can improve patients' mental state in the short term, they have significant side effects."

As soon as these words came out, there was a lot of discussion at the scene.

"Yes, hormones can indeed make people feel better in a short period of time."

"If that's the case, it's horrible."

"Nothing can happen to Mr. Liu."

Liu Ying quickly stood up to defend Zhang Yumo: "Don't talk nonsense, my grandfather not only felt better after taking Mr. Zhang's medicine, but also some of his old ailments were alleviated. This is definitely not the effect of hormones."

"Xiaoying, you're still young and don't understand this." Zhao Jianguo shook his head. "The side effects of hormones often have a delayed effect. Just because you can't see them now doesn't mean there won't be any problems in the future."

"What evidence do you have that I'm using hormones?" Zhang Yumo asked back.

"It's very simple." Zhao Jianguo smiled proudly, "Bring out another pill, and I'll have it tested by a professional institution, and we'll know for sure."

"Why?" Zhang Yumo refused directly, "My prescription is a secret recipe passed down from my ancestors. I can't just give it to anyone to test."

"Haha, you don't dare anymore, right?" Zhao Jianguo was even more proud. "If it's really a legitimate traditional Chinese medicine, why would you be afraid of testing?"

The surrounding chatter became louder.

"Yes, if it's a legitimate drug, why wouldn't you dare test it?"

"Isn't this the three hundred taels of silver that are missing here?"

"It seems there is really a problem."

Even some people in the Liu family began to whisper, with doubtful looks on their faces.

Liu Ying's eyes turned red with anxiety: "Don't say that, Mr. Zhang is a good man."

At this moment, Zhao Jianguo clapped his hands again: "I also specially invited a professional pharmacist."

A tall and thin man wearing glasses walked out of the crowd.

"This is Master Li, the pharmacist from the city hospital," Zhao Jianguo introduced. "Master Li, please tell us."

Master Li pushed his glasses up. "If it's truly traditional Chinese medicine, there shouldn't be anything that can't be made public. Chinese medicine these days emphasizes inheritance and development, so what's the point of hiding it?"

"That's right, it's the right time now, why are you still using secret recipes?"

"Maybe it's not a secret recipe at all, but just an ordinary hormone drug."

"Mr. Zhang, why don't you write a prescription for us to see?" Master Li pretended to be very polite. "We are also concerned about Mr. Liu's health."

Zhang Yumo sneered: "Why should I prove anything to you?"

"Look, he's not brave enough again." Zhao Jianguo spread his hands. "Everyone, isn't this obvious?"

The atmosphere at the scene became increasingly tense, with voices of doubt rising one after another.

"Turns out he's a charlatan."

"How could the Liu family trust such a person?"

"Hurry up and get him out of here. Don't harm Mr. Liu."

Liu Ying was so anxious that she was about to cry. She wanted to defend Zhang Yumo, but facing so many people's doubts, she, a little girl, had no chance of winning.

Even some elders of the Liu family began to waver.

"Xiaoying, why don't we ask Mr. Zhang to cooperate with the test?"

"Yeah, if there's really nothing wrong, there's no harm in getting it tested."

"We are doing this for the old man's own good."

Zhang Yumo looked at the people in front of him, and a wave of disgust surged in his heart. He didn't like to explain, and he didn't like to prove anything to these people.

"Since you all think so, then I have nothing to say." Zhang Yumo turned and was about to leave, "I'm going back to my room."

"Stop!" Zhao Jianguo shouted, "Are you feeling guilty?"

"Yes, we can't let him go!"

"We must make things clear!"

Just then, the sound of a car was heard outside the yard.

Everyone turned to look and saw a black car parked at the door.

The car door opened and Wang Dingguo got out of the car.

Seeing Wang Dingguo, the discussion at the scene quieted down a bit. Wang Dingguo was well-known in the local area, and everyone knew that he was an excellent doctor.

Wang Dingguo walked up to Zhang Yumo and knelt down without saying a word.

"Master, I am late."

After this kneeling, the scene instantly became quiet.

Everyone's eyes widened, unable to believe what they saw.

Wang Dingguo, the highly respected Wang Dingguo in the local medical community, actually knelt down to this young man?

And you call him Master?

Wang Dingguo's kneeling stunned everyone present.

Zhao Jianguo's eyes widened, his mouth wide open enough to fit an egg: "Wang... Mr. Wang, what are you doing..."

"Get up." Zhang Yumo said lightly.

Wang Dingguo then stood up, but still stood respectfully behind Zhang Yumo.

"Mr. Wang, what's going on?" Master Li pushed his glasses up, his voice trembling. "How could you..."

"I've already said that Mr. Zhang is my master." Wang Dingguo's voice was calm, but every word was clear. "A few days ago, I witnessed Master's medical skills with my own eyes. They were the most superb medical skills I've seen in my 30 years of practicing medicine."

The discussion at the scene started again, but this time the tone was obviously different.

"Since Elder Wang has said so, then this Zhang Yumo..."

"No way, we all know about Elder Wang's medical skills. Would he recognize a young man as his master?"
