I Transmigrated Into a Novel and Became the Vicious Stepmother of Five Cute Babies Chapter 220 – 220 Past the Period

220 Past the Period

Although she would occasionally say some strange words, her actions were extremely cooperative with her treatment and care. In the past, as soon as she woke up, she would cry out in pain and hunger. Now, she could only silently endure it. When she really couldn’t take it, she would groan.

On the fourth day after the operation, Qing Xi could finally drink liquid food like rice soup and lotus root starch. She had also safely passed the most dangerous period.

From then on, Mo Ruyue handed over the responsibility of taking care of Qing Xi to Madam Du and the others. However, she did not give up completely. After all, the follow-up treatment still had to continue. She would only officially end the treatment for Duanmu Qingxi when she had recovered to a certain extent.

During this time, another thing happened. The day of the Qin Shi and Wang Luosheng’s public apology to Mo Ruyue had arrived.

Originally, he should have apologized and paid the fine a few days ago, but at that time, Mo Ruyue had just finished Qing Xi’s surgery and was at the most critical time. So Imperial Doctor Tian came forward to say a few good words to the county magistrate and changed the date.

Mo Ruyue only remembered this matter when Imperial Doctor Tian came to look for her.

“Elder Tian, if you didn’t mention it, I would have forgotten about it. If I didn’t remember wrongly, the deadline should have arrived a few days ago, right?”

Mo Ruyue calculated the time. It had actually been almost ten days.

During this period of time, she had been making various preparations for the surgery and even went to Ping City. Things came one after another. It was no wonder that she had forgotten about this matter.

“I thought that Lady Qin should focus on this operation and not be distracted by such a small matter, so I took the initiative to look for the county magistrate and asked him to delay the time. He agreed readily, saying that he hadn’t collected enough money for the families of the two prisoners, so he could give them some time.”

Imperial Doctor Tian roughly explained the matter to Mo Ruyue so that he could understand the situation.

“He sure knows how to do a favor at no cost.”

Mo Ruyue laughed awkwardly, thinking that the old master probably couldn’t wait to skip this public apology process. Without this part, although she won the lawsuit, it would more or less be a little unsatisfactory.

Imperial Doctor Tian didn’t know that Mo Ruyue had a history with the county magistrate and only thought that she was dissatisfied with the county magistrate’s attitude of turning a big issue into a small one and calming down the situation. He advised, “The First Master was also considerate of your situation, so he delayed it. Tomorrow morning, the bailiffs will bring people over.”

Mo Ruyue didn’t explain much. In any case, as long as the county magistrate didn’t provoke her, everyone would live in peace. If he still didn’t give up and wanted to cause trouble, she wouldn’t just sit and wait for death.

Early the next morning, a few bailiffs took Madam Qin and Wang Luosheng out of the prison of the government office. They only put on a pair of simple shackles and took them in the direction of Huichun Hall.

When the people on the street saw this, they were stunned for a moment, and then some people remembered that more than half a month ago, Lady Qin of Huichun Hall had two lawsuits.

“Aiya, could it be that Lady Qin’s mother-in-law and that man called Wang something are going to apologize to her today?”

“There’s such a thing? Oh, right! I remember! It’s been so long, I thought it never happened!”

“Let’s go and see what’s going on. Which family has such a daughter-in-law? Not only is the mother-in-law being sued by the daughter-in-law, but she also has to apologize in front of the entire city. Not only that, but she also has to pay a fine and go to jail. Isn’t that rare?”

The news spread like wildfire. Soon, the news had almost spread throughout the entire county. The streets were filled with people who came to watch the show. Those who didn’t know would think that the fair had been brought forward.

The little medicine boy of Huichun Hall saw this scene as soon as he opened the door. He was only a little stunned. Soon, he opened the door with an indifferent face, went back, and came out with a broom to clean the steps.

“Everyone, don’t gather at our door. Lady Qin hasn’t come out yet. If you block the way, you won’t be able to see her!”

This was not the first time that the gate had been blocked by the common people, so everyone in Huichun Hall was extremely calm about this “Grand occasion”. They were no longer at a loss when they saw this scene.

“Make way, make way! Why are you all blocking the entrance of Huichun Hall? Move!”

A burst of scolding came from behind the crowd. It was the government office runner who had brought Qin Shi and Wang Luosheng. They were blocked by the commoners who had arrived first, so they couldn’t reach the gate of Huichun Hall at all.

“They’re here, they’re here. Everyone, make way. If they don’t go on stage, how can we have any fun to watch!”

Someone shouted, and the commoners blocking the road made way for the bailiff, Qin Shi, and Wang Luosheng to pass through.

Although Madam Qin and Wang Luosheng’s hands were cuffed, the bailiffs did not hold the chains too tightly. Thus, both of them raised their hands and used their sleeves to cover their faces. Their heads were deeply lowered, and they could only see the road through a small gap in their sleeves as they stumbled forward.

Walking through the streets, the two people’s face was simply lost. They wished that a crack would appear on the ground so that they could immediately burrow in.

As Qin Shi walked, she muttered, “I can’t live, this old woman can’t live, I’ve lost the face of the Qin family, No, don’t blame me! If it wasn’t for her, if it wasn’t for that cheap woman, none of this would have happened!”

Wang Luosheng, who was following behind them, walked with uneven steps. After spending these days in the dark prison, not only had he lost a lot of weight, but he was also emitting an unpleasant smell.

He could hear the crowd’s discussion, as if they were all laughing at him for causing trouble for no reason, but where could he find the medicine for regret now?

When Mo Ruyue heard that the entrance of Huichun Hall was blocked again, she put down her work and walked towards the front door.

She had just walked to the front hall when she heard a commotion outside. Someone saw her and immediately shouted, “Hey, hey, look, Lady Qin is out!”

When the commoners who had already dispersed to the sides heard this, they swarmed back to the main gate.

“Lady Qin, the officer brought your mother-in-law and that Wang or something. Not to mention that they were locked up for a while, they’re really smelly!”

Someone in the crowd shouted, and it immediately triggered a burst of laughter.

“Hey, why is it blocked again? Is there anyone like you who just wants to watch the fun?”

When the bailiff who brought the two people from the Qin Village had only walked halfway, he saw that the road was blocked again. He could not help but start to scold again.

The crowd began to disperse to the sides again. Now that the main characters of both sides had appeared, the show was about to start.

The bailiff leading the group was also an old acquaintance of Mo Ruyue. It was precisely the constable Wang who had always been at odds with her.

“Lady Qin, you really have a lot of noble people. Our master still has to remember such a thing for you in his busy schedule, and even let this Constable personally send them to you. Tsk tsk, your face and arrogance are not small.”

Constable Wang stood in front of Mo Ruyue and spoke in a strange tone. The commoners around them saw this and didn’t know why this official would have a conflict with Lady Qin. Their eyes revealed that they wanted to gossip again.
