I Transmigrated Into a Novel and Became the Vicious Stepmother of Five Cute Babies Chapter 145 – 145 Line Up For Consultation

145 Line Up For Consultation

Although treating an illness was a long process and it was impossible to cure the illness immediately after taking the medicine, Mo Ruyue could achieve immediate results in relieving pain and relieving the torture of the illness.

Even so, everyone’s opinion of her medical skills was clear in their eyes and they finally believed that Imperial Doctor Tian’s judgment was correct.

When Mo Ruyue saw the fifth patient, there was a commotion outside. A man kept saying that he wanted to see Mo Ruyue and that they had already made an appointment.

After apologizing to the patient she was seeing, Mo Ruyue got up and walked out.

Fortunately, the patient’s condition was mild. If it were serious, she would not leave the patient alone even if someone was going to die outside.

There had to be rules for everything. First come, first served.

When she walked out, she saw a familiar figure. It was the man who had stopped her outside the Qin Village to seek medical treatment.

There was an old woman lying on the ox-cart next to him. She must be his mother. As expected, he brought his mother to see a doctor today as promised, but he came too late. If he had to queue up, he was afraid that they would miss the appointment.

So at this time, he was arguing with the little waiter, Zheng Chao, who was maintaining order. One said that he had an appointment with Mo Ruyue in advance, but the other insisted that he line up. Just like that, they started arguing.

“Stop quarreling, what’s with all the noise?”

Mo Ruyue walked over and separated the two people who were quarreling.

“He did have an appointment with me. I told him to come to see me today, so he should be the first one.”

Her words made the man’s eyes light up, but before he could speak, Mo Ruyue said again, “I don’t care how far you live. Since you know you have an appointment with me today, you should have come earlier. It’s not wrong to make you line up now.”

This was equivalent to giving each of them 50 strokes of the stick. No one helped. Although the two people who were quarreling stopped quarreling, they were also dumbfounded. They had no idea what Mo Ruyue meant.

After stopping the two from quarreling, Mo Ruyue walked to the ox cart and opened the blanket covering the old woman slightly, revealing a withered, yellow, and wrinkled face. Almost everyone who didn’t know medicine could see that the old woman was suffering from illness.

“I want to discuss with the people in the queue behind us if we can let this person cut the queue a little. As you all can see, his mother is really very sick, and I can think of why he is late.”

“Because in the later stages of this illness, the muscles and bones all over her body will be sore and painful. Even a little vibration will make her suffer. So do you see the thick mattress under her body? it’s to alleviate the pain caused by the shock.”

“Do you see her clothes are all wet? That’s because she’s wrapped up tightly on such a hot day. So I hope everyone can understand the mother and son’s difficulties and wait for a while.”

Mo Ruyue’s words also surprised everyone. Their impression of her had always been that she was a cold and unapproachable person. It seemed that no one could make her show her warm side except for her babies.

However, what they saw now was that Mo Ruyue was using a pleading tone to discuss with the other patients on behalf of a filial son whose mother was seriously ill. She asked them to understand the difficulties of this mother and son and let them cut the line for treatment first.

This kind of performance was very different from her previous demeanor.

“I’m willing to wait. It’s just a minor illness anyway. My stomach’s a little uncomfortable, but I can still bear it.”

Soon, someone expressed that he was willing to give up.

“I’ll wait for a while too. It’s just one person anyway, so it won’t take long.”

“Yeah, if it’s four or five, we can’t wait.”

With one person taking the lead, the others echoed, but there were also people who clearly expressed their unwillingness.

“That won’t do. I’ve been waiting in line for half a day. It might be afternoon when it’s my turn. If someone else comes in, I might not be able to get in today. The next time will have to wait three days. I can’t wait!”

The person who spoke was closer to the back of the line. He did indeed represent a portion of the people’s voices. Although it was small, it still existed.

Mo Ruyue frowned but didn’t force him to change his mind. After all, he had been in line the whole time, so his request wasn’t too much.

The man who came to seek medical treatment was also in a difficult position. He rubbed his hands and said, “I’ve already rushed over as soon as possible. It takes more than half a day to walk from my house to the county. In order to not let mother suffer more pain, I’ve been walking here since the day before yesterday. I only arrived today.”

“Fellow villagers, I beg of you. If I don’t make it today, my mother will have to suffer two more times. She’s getting on in years and really can’t take this kind of torture anymore.”

The man’s eyes turned red as he spoke, and his voice started to choke up.

“Aiya, people’s hearts are made of flesh. If your mother were to fall sick, how would you feel? We’re all patients and know the pain of being sick. We should help if we can.”

Someone couldn’t stand it and couldn’t help but stand on the man’s side and speak for him.

Although the people who originally opposed it didn’t say anything, it was obvious that they were still extremely unwilling.

Mo Ruyue saw that if this matter continued, it would probably waste more time. Just as she was about to speak, she saw Old Doctor Xu come out again.

“It’s easy. If the old woman can’t get in line in time, she can stay in our clinic. There are rooms for patients in the backyard, so you don’t have to go back and forth.”

When Mo Ruyue heard this, she added, ” “I’ll take some time out tomorrow to treat your mother.”

“This… Thank you, thank you Lady Qin and this old doctor. As long as my mother can suffer less and get her illness treated earlier, I’m willing to work like a horse!”

The man said gratefully. Although his expression was still a little anxious, he finally relaxed a little.

Mo Ruyue didn’t say anything more. Instead, she prepared to go back and continue to see the patients who had not finished.

“Lady Qin, you won’t stop treating us just because we didn’t agree to your request, right?”

The first man who stood up to object to Mo Ruyue’s suggestion spoke again. This time, he directly questioned Mo Ruyue’s medical ethics.

Mo Ruyue stopped and turned to look at him. “If you don’t trust me now, I have the right to refuse to accept you as my patient. Doctors don’t treat untrustworthy and uncooperative patients. This is the rule of our line of work.”

“Hmph, what rules? I think you’re just finding an excuse to send us away so that only those who agree to let him cut the line will be left. Then, you’ll treat this man’s mother first, right? I’m telling you, we won’t fall for this!”

That man said insistently, as if he wanted Mo Ruyue to give him a promise.

“Fellow villager, we have this rule in the apricot forest. If the patient doesn’t trust us, we usually don’t take action, because you will think that we are not careful, including doubting the use of medicine, the efficacy of the medicine, and so on.”
