Chapter 94: Chapter 94 Act When It’s Time to Act!_1

"This, this..."

Old Uncle Hu’s mouth twitched for a while, his forehead oozing sweat, spending his words evasively.

After a good while, he stammered, "That, that person is the Polaris in the medical field. What, what he said is certainly true, I...I was momentarily blind!"

As he spoke, his old face contorted, not daring to lift his head.

Qin Yi and the others couldn’t help but take a second, puzzled look.

Furthermore, the crowd, watching the spectacle, began to look at Old Xue with increasing respect and much whispering amongst themselves.

"Oh, you’re still here? Hmm!"

Only then, Old Xue noticed Old Uncle Hu. He straightened up, both hands held behind his back, looking at him disdainfully: "What are you doing here? Are you still freeloading off others here?"

Having been thus addressed, Old Uncle Hu’s face turned as red as a ripe persimmon. With his mouth moving in silent protest, he spent a long time without uttering a word, wishing that he could disappear through a crack in the ground.

Lui Muyi was coldly observing these proceedings, but when he saw this he snapped open his folding fan, gently waving it, a flash of annoyance flickering at the corners of his eyes.

"Doctor Hu, Old Xue is questioning you. Are your ears deaf? Answer him quickly!"

Following Lui Muyi’s comment, Old Uncle Hu felt increasingly like he had lost face completely.

"I, I...I..."

"What about you? Hmph!"

Old Xue clearly seemed displeased: "Two years ago, because of your negligent medical practice, you almost killed Master Wang Da Cai’s only son. When Master Wang wanted to accuse you of attempted murder, I helped you cover it up. You promised me that you would never practice medicine again. What is going on now?"

"This, this is not practising medicine, just identifying a few medicinal ingredients..."

Old Uncle hu muttered incoherently, and could hardly complete a sentence.

"You dare to equivocate!"

Old Xue, full of rage, turned to look at Lui Muyi: "Muyi, unless I’m mistaken, this place is under your family’s influence, right? Why then is this dangerous charlatan still here?"

"Old Xue, I am deeply wronged!"

Lui Muyi closed his fan with a snap, and addressed Old Xue with a respectful bow of his head: "This old dog came and stayed with me, claiming that he was under your protection, Old Xue! When I heard this, how could I have treated him with neglect? Naturally, I treated him as an honoured guest. I never thought...sigh!"

Lui Muyi shook his head repeatedly, a pained look on his face.

"This man has been eating and drinking without contributing anything all this time, using my family’s power to cause trouble everywhere. Just yesterday, he still owed me forty-five taels of silver. Old Xue, you see, this..."

Old Uncle Hu was completely dumbfounded. He had no idea what was going on.

"I see!"

Old Xue’s expression became much softer; he nodded, caught sight of Old Uncle Hu out of the corner of his eye, and turned towards him: "You Ignorant quack, who has beguiled and deceived others, what are you still standing there for? Do I need to personally issue an order for you to be thrown out of Yongze County before you’re willing to leave?"

Where would Old Uncle Hu dare to say anything more? He quickly disappeared into the crowd, feeling utterly shamed.

The crowd understood what was going on. As soon as they saw Old Uncle Hu trying to slip away, initially one man reached out and grabbed him by the scruff of the neck, and soon after, a whole swarm of people came rushing in! There was pushing and reaching out, with some even taking the opportunity to get a few jabs in.

"Stop, stop! Stop hitting me...stop..."

He was frantically calling out and trying to escape.

But the more he cried out and tried to slip away, the more people joined in. From the initial pushing and shoving, it gradually devolved into flying fists and kicks. Some even used broken broomsticks, rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs as weapons against him.

Old Uncle Hu twisted this way and that, desperately trying to escape. Due to today being a market day and the roads being crowded, the more he tried to flee, the more people joined in the chase and attack. A big commotion rang out as they chased him out onto the main street.

Only when Old Uncle Hu, with his hands covering his face, had completely vanished around the corner of the street, leading a massive crowd away with him, did the street quieten down somewhat.

Look again at the Huangjing on the ground and Old Xue’s mouth twitched a bit as he repeatedly shook his head at Lui Muyi.

"You! In the future, you must not always be so kind-hearted. Like that wolf in sheep’s clothing just now, you must not show mercy. When dealing with a troublemaker, you must not be lenient. When it is time to make your move, you should be decisive! Got it?"

Kind heart?

Everyone couldn’t help but twitch their mouths!

A person who runs a brothel, gambling den, and practices usury can also be called kind-hearted?

They all shouted in their hearts: Old Xue! The gentlemanly appearance of this man must not deceive you!

"Old Xue’s lesson is noted, Muyi would definitely bear it in mind, and will never commit such a mistake again."

Lui Muyi saluted Old Xue with a fist and smiled heartily.

"You little rascal! Always playing smart...rare, really rare! Lui Ming, the evildoer, unexpectedly has such an upright son like you!"

His mannerism made Old Xue laugh, feeling greatly moved.

"Ah! Recently, the old man has been preparing a medicine, for which he needs such a top-grade Huangjing. A few days ago, I heard that it was found nearby, so I rushed here, initially intending to buy it at ten taels per piece, not caring about the price. But now...looking at the high-grade Huangjing in front of me, it suddenly turned into meat mud. Is it that Heaven is unwilling to fulfill my wish?"

Ah!

Ten taels per piece?

He originally did not say anything, but this utterance made Su Xian’er break out in a cold sweat, and Su Yue’er, looking at her with furrowed brows and staring eyes, twisted her face with anger.

That was a total of thirty taels of silver, but it was wiped out under her feet!

Qin Yi’s eyes lit up!

He looked at Su Pan’er beside him frequently. He knew that in the basket behind Pan’er, there were still a few Huangjings left!

Su Pan’er squinted her eyes and couldn’t help scrutinising the old man in front of her.

He carried a faint fragrance of medicine on him, his white-haired was all bundled on top of his head, and underneath his ordinary, faded straight robe, the edges of his cloth shoes had already worn out, revealing the void edge.

At the moment, he is stroking his white beard with his hand, looking at her with a face full of expectation.

As she was observing him, their gazes just happened to meet.

Old Xue smiled slightly and nodded at her.

Su Pan’er raised an eyebrow and then saluted him with a fist. This old guy is quite interesting!

"Ugly girl, do you still have good medicinal ingredients in your hands?"

Old Xue laughed merrily at Su Pan’er.

Although he also called Su Pan’er an ugly girl, his words were filled with gentleness, giving him an instant liking.

"I don’t have good medicinal ingredients."

Su Pan’er retorted promptly.

Everyone’s faces immediately changed! Clearly, there were still medicinal ingredients in her basket.

Only Old Xue was still grinning.

Su Pan’er then chuckled, "But, I do have top-grade medicines, Old Xue, do you want to buy?"

Lui Muyi took the opportunity to introduce, "Old Xue, this is Su Pan’er, the black and ugly foolish girl from the Su family that I mentioned to you this morning."

"Ha ha...you naughty ugly girl, you really appeal to the old man’s liking, good, very good! Ha ha."

Old Xue’s eyes twinkled, and he burst into hearty laughter.

——

Su’s cousins: Su Ping’er, Su Yue’er, Su Xian’er, Su Xi’er, Su Pan’er, Su He’er, with the oldest cousin Su Ping’er not yet appeared. Some of the friends may feel dizzy with so many names.
