Chapter 513: Schemes Take Shape (2)_1
These people came to watch the excitement, simply to find out whether Lao Mo’s House would cause another uproar, and whether Mrs. Hong, the wicked mother-in-law, would torment her daughter-in-law and granddaughter again.
Now, seeing Mo Yan staying here and not leaving, they were even more curious to know whether she would stand up for Mother and daughter of Mo Wu clan. The close relationship between Mo Yan and the Mo Wu’s mother and daughter was well known throughout Liu Yang Village.
These villagers were just a bit too fond of gossip, but essentially had no bad intentions; otherwise, Wu’s mother and daughter might still be lying under the Ancient poplar tree!
Mo Yan had no interest in their probing words. After greeting those she knew well, she stared intently at the entrance to Lao Mo’s House, disregarding the scrutinizing gazes on her.
At this moment, Doctor Du had already finished taking Mo Wu’s pulse and had set Mo Danier’s shoulder bone and applied medicine. He was now in the main hall discussing the results of the diagnosis.
Ignoring the long faces of Old Man Mo, Mrs. Hong, and others, he spoke eloquently about the condition of the mother and daughter, and ended with a grave expression, saying to the ashen-faced Mo Yongfu, "With Lady Gui’s age, conceiving offspring is already a challenge. This heavy blow and miscarriage have greatly damaged her Original Energy. Even if she seems better on the surface, internally she’s completely exhausted! If she is nurtured with good soups and medicines on a regular basis, she may not be able to work in the fields, but she could live out her days in peace without issues. Your daughter, however, is in grave danger. It would be best for her to rest in bed; otherwise, if the fragmented bone shifts inside and injures her internal organs, I fear for her life..."
"What? What did you say?" Mrs. Hong didn’t wait for Doctor Du to finish, her voice shrill with a sharp cry, "Not able to work, and needing good medicine to be nourished? Bah—I say those two wretches are jinxes, and now they expect me to provide for them? They should look in the mirror and see if they have the fortune to match!"
Such harsh and rude words flowed smoothly from Mrs. Hong, and Doctor Du found them extremely grating. He glanced at Mrs. Hong casually and said, "What I’ve said is the truth. If you don’t believe it, feel free to seek another doctor to take a look. I have said all there is to say, and whether to treat them is up to you."
