Marrying a concubine and swallowing her dowry? The mistress turns around and marries a high-ranking

Chapter 85

The people in line were skeptical, but some who were at the back of the line and unwilling to wait any longer came to Liu Manman to get their medicine.

Physician Sun glanced at her. Given that she had previously quelled a plague in the army, she must be quite capable, so he refrained from interfering with her for the time being.

The first medications Liu Manman distributed were antipyretics, anti-inflammatory drugs, and cough suppressants—medications that were effective and fast-acting.

Fever reducers take effect within an hour or two. People in ancient times never used antibiotics and had no drug resistance, so the effects of the medicine were immediate.

It's much faster than slow-acting traditional Chinese medicine.

Liu Manman's fame has soared after only two days of distributing medicine here.

Countless people rushed to her to get their medicine, and the line stretched from Huimin Pharmacy all the way down half the street. The streets and alleys were filled with praise for Liu Manman.

"As expected of the Divine Physician Danxin! I have never seen a doctor prescribe medicine that is so effective!"

"I took her medicine, and my fever broke in just half an hour!"

"My child started coughing up blood, but after taking medicine for two days, he's back to being lively and energetic!"

"Madam Liu is beautiful, kind-hearted, and has superb medical skills. She must have been sent by heaven to save us!"

They practically praised Liu Manman to the skies, and no one ever mentioned her previous premarital pregnancy and illicit affair again.

For ordinary people, being able to save their lives is an immeasurable favor; who cares whether you were married when you gave birth?

Liu Manman was very pleased with herself.

This would completely revitalize her reputation in Kyoto, allowing her to once again become the goddess doctor deeply admired and loved by all.

Taking advantage of her rapidly rising prestige, she formulated many measures to prevent and control the epidemic, such as requiring everyone to wear homemade masks, strictly isolating confirmed patients, and disinfecting items used by patients by boiling water, etc., and had people promote them.

Physician Sun did not mind Liu Manman taking over and issuing orders at the Huimin Pharmacy. As long as her policies helped control the epidemic, he was willing to vigorously promote and implement them.

For a time, Liu Manman was incredibly famous. In the mouths of the people of Kyoto, she was rumored to be a bodhisattva incarnate, a fairy descended to earth. Countless patients were grateful to her, and storytellers even made up several legendary tales about her.

Qin Shaoze had naturally heard of Liu Manman's reputation.

He originally intended to leave Liu Manman out of the picture for a while longer, and then bring her back before the Lunar New Year. After enduring so much, she must have lost all her spirit.

But now Qin Shaoze couldn't sit still any longer, and his attitude towards Liu Manman suddenly made a complete 180-degree turn.

If Liu Manman can end this plague in Kyoto just like last time, it will be an absolute great achievement! Her reward will be no less than the highest!

She is the wife of the Marquis of Yongning!

The hope for the rise of the Yongning Marquis's mansion rests on her; how could he possibly leave her out in the cold?

Qin Shaoze immediately went to Liu Manman's house to find her.

He felt he should prioritize the bigger picture, and as a man, he was flexible and adaptable, so he didn't feel ashamed. He smiled throughout and was very sincere, asking Liu Manman to return to the Yongning Marquis's residence with him.

Liu Manman finally felt triumphant and extremely satisfied.

She was thoroughly angered by Qin Shaoze this time, so she put on a good show of her dignity and vented her anger. Only after Qin Shaoze pleaded with her three times in a humble manner did she return to the Yongning Marquis's residence with an arrogant and triumphant air.

From then on, the two made up again after their argument.

The matter of Qin Shaoze's suspicion that Liu Manman had tried to kill Qin Chuyao was put on hold, and neither of them mentioned it again.

After Qin Shaoze coaxed the person back, he quickly began to take advantage of Liu Manman's momentum.
