I really don't want to take shortcuts anymore

Chapter 486 Bowing for Her
"Cough, cough, cough!" Master Mo could see that Luo Qianhuai had become a little soft-hearted, and he quickly coughed a few times:

"Minister Xin, please don't praise her so much. She is just an inexperienced young lady who treats patients and saves lives with her passion - she is not worthy of being in a high-class place, so please don't embarrass yourself here. Madam Xin is of noble status and has great fortune, so she will definitely meet a noble person to help her - in other words, this marquis' body really cannot do without her. Speaking of this, I have to thank your majesty for his great grace."

While he was muttering to himself, he nodded slightly to Xin He. Then his body softened and he leaned diagonally on Luo Qianhuai, half dragged and half pulled outside.

Behind her, Huo Xiu had already sat up and grabbed Zhang Xianqiu, who had an extremely ugly expression on his face: "Mother, you can't let her go!"

"If we don't even dare to treat it, what's the point of stopping us?" Zhang Xianqiu gritted his teeth, shaking with hatred.

She really didn't expect that after just a few sarcastic remarks, the sickly guy would actually say a lot of nonsense, and Madam Jing was so bold that she just quit and left!

Ever since her husband received the order from the late emperor and became a person second only to the emperor, everyone has been submissive in front of her. Not to mention a few sarcastic remarks, even if they are spitted at in public and smashed with teacups on the other person's forehead, they have to put on a smile and try their best to please her - does Madam Jing think that with that sickly guy as a backer, she can really become a well-deserved marquise, and dare to lose face in public?
What's even more infuriating is that her son-in-law, the prime minister and the head of all officials, not only did not make the decision for her, but also took the initiative to apologize to that lowly village girl. In his words and deeds, he compared himself and his daughter to ordinary women without vision. It was a huge joke!
She was worried about her granddaughter's illness, so she wanted to wait until her granddaughter's treatment was finished before settling the final score. She didn't expect that even though her son-in-law had lowered his posture so much, the sickly man still refused to give in and wanted to drag her away directly - this was simply too much. Did he really think that he had some noble bloodline?
At this moment, Zhang Xianqiu's mind was filled with evil thoughts. He was thinking about how to complain to Huo Xuan when he returned, and how to deal with Yu Chu. He was also thinking about how to set up another trap to ruin Madam Jing's reputation, or directly frame Jing Yuan to bring him into unpredictable trouble and implicate his wife and daughter.
Just when he was thinking about what he wanted, he saw his daughter let go of her hand and rushed directly to Xue Wen, completely disregarding her image as a noble lady and grabbed him by the collar:

"Is it true, is it true that Madam Jing is the only one who can save my Yun'er now?"

"That's right." Xue Wen said shyly, "Since the Madam's illness began, we and the famous doctors in the capital are all helpless. Only Madam Jing is willing to prescribe a prescription."

"Will that prescription work?" Huo Xiu asked anxiously.

"It is indeed an extremely wonderful prescription." Xue Wen sighed, "We all think that if this prescription is used immediately, the lady may have a chance of survival."

"Then what are you waiting for?" Huo Xiu loosened his hand and took two steps back: "Send someone to get the medicine according to the prescription immediately!"

Xue Wen turned his head to look at Mr. Mo and the other two who were about to go behind the screen outside, and said helplessly: "The prescription was given by Madam Jing, and we dare not take it on our own. Besides, even Madam Jing claimed that she was not talented enough to diagnose without permission, and we are just sitting there doing nothing, which makes us feel ashamed. We are about to ask to leave."

As he said this, he and the other doctors, including Wen Pu, whose face was already filled with annoyance, bowed to Huo Xiu, Xin He, Zhang Xianqiu and the others, then turned around and prepared to leave.

Huo Xiu looked at her husband, whose eyes were cold and whose face was as gloomy as water, and then looked at her daughter, whose face was becoming increasingly gray and who was only breathing out but not in, and took a deep breath.

She pulled up the hem of her skirt and ran out of the inner room before Xue Wen and others, rushing straight to Luo Qianhuai and Mo Gongzi. She made up her mind and knelt down with a plop.

This kneeling not only shocked all the attending doctors, but also made Qin Sang, who had been quietly huddled in a corner of the inner room and unable to say a word, stare so wide that his eyes almost fell to the ground.

You have to know that the woman on the ground is the only daughter of the powerful Sima and the prime minister's wife. If Madam Xin could escape this disaster, she would still be the mother of the Queen and the mother-in-law of Your Majesty. There would be few people in the world more noble than her. How could she kneel down to Madam Jing?
Zhang Xianqiu also rubbed his eyes, thinking that he had seen it wrong. Huo Xiu was raised by her with great care, and she never gave her the moon or the stars. She found the best female teacher to carefully educate her, and married a man who was impeccable in both family background and ability. He was even appointed as prime minister by the late emperor at the age of forty. Such an outstanding daughter was indeed her proudest and most proud masterpiece of her life, and was also the spiritual pillar that supported her to continue living after Huo Yu's death.

But now, her daughter, who was as proud as a peacock, lowered her noble head to that lowly woman and begged humbly:

"Madam Jing, everything that happened before was my fault, and I am willing to apologize to you. But Yun'er has done nothing wrong. She is kind and generous, obedient and sensible, and the best young lady in the world - please, save her, and do everything you can to save her!"

As Huo Xiu spoke, she buried her head deeply on the cold blue bricks, while her vest was still rising and falling violently, revealing her extremely uneasy mood at the moment.

In this posture, he naturally couldn't see Mr. Mo above him. He smiled lightly at Luo Qianhuai and raised his eyebrows.

Luo Qianhuai glanced at him unhappily. She really didn't expect that a noble lady like Huo Xiu, who had the nobility of family background in her blood and regarded other people's lives as worthless, would actually have the love for her child and kneel down to beg her for her daughter.

She took a step forward and leaned over to help Huo Xiu up. She used a lot of strength, but the other party was unwilling to get up: "Madam Jing, if you don't agree to stay and treat Yun'er, I won't get up!"

This person's words and actions are still as unpleasant as ever.

Luo Qianhuai just frowned when he heard Master Mo speak indifferently: "Madam, don't underestimate Madam Jing's kindness. Madam, you know very well why she came to your house today, so even if she doesn't want to care about what happened before, I want to seek justice. If you think that everything can be smoothed over with a simple apology, you are underestimating me too much."

Although his voice was low, it rarely showed his sharpness in front of outsiders.

Luo Qianhuai looked up at him in surprise, but saw that he was looking back at her calmly, as if the occasional domineering look he showed just now was just her illusion.

Huo Xiu lowered her head, forcing herself to suppress her surging emotions: "It was all my fault. Fortunately, Madam Jing was lucky and didn't suffer any loss. I will prepare a generous gift to apologize to you two later. But Yun'er..."

"I can help save people." Luo Qianhuai interrupted her: "But there are three conditions."

"Let alone three, even if there are more, as long as Yun'er can be saved, I will agree!" Huo Xiu raised his head, his eyes full of bloodshot, looking straight up at her.

Young Master Mo pinched Luo Qianhuai and asked her to turn to Xin He, who had arrived in front of them at some point.
