Chapter 228 After all, you are all my mother’s relatives
After Mrs. Shen San finished speaking, she couldn't help but complain about Shen Ruolan in her heart, saying that she was so ignorant of the world. A young person like her dared to ask such a sky-high price. Her arrogance was almost as high as her grandfather's.
After hearing what her third sister-in-law said, Mrs. Shen quickly whispered to her, "Third sister-in-law, please keep your voice down."
Madam Shen snorted coldly and said, "Sister-in-law, this is the truth. Why should I keep my voice down?"
After she finished speaking, she paused and continued, "Also, this is Medicine King Valley. Shen Ruolan is charging a high price for medical treatment here. Isn't this smearing our Medicine King Valley?"
Madam Shen comforted Madam Shen San and said, "Third sister-in-law, don't worry. Let me discuss it with Qian'er and then decide how to deal with this matter."
Madam Shen San stood up and said, "Then sister-in-law better hurry up, otherwise you know my bad temper."
After saying this, she turned around and left without looking back.
Mrs. Shen naturally knew the temper of Mrs. Shen San. If she didn't handle the situation in time, this bad-tempered sister-in-law would definitely go to cause trouble for Shen Ruolan.
Mrs. Shen rubbed her brows with a headache. Before she and her son could come up with any good ideas, many elders from the Shen family came over one after another.
Mrs. Shen told them that she would take care of it, and then everyone went home.
Shen Ruolan, who was playing with her children in the village, had no idea that her deal with Liu Rui had brought trouble to the Shen family. She just felt that when the people in the Shen family saw her today, their eyes were full of anger, which made her feel a little confused.
Seeing that her master was puzzled, Ziyuan whispered to her, "Madam, because you asked Liu Rui for a sky-high reward, everyone in the Medicine King Valley is very dissatisfied with you."
After Shen Ruolan heard what Ziyuan said, she immediately understood the reason. She picked up the two children and said to Liu Gu and others, "Let's go back to the guest room."
After hearing her words, everyone followed her.
Ji Han said to Shen Ruolan, "Master, this Liu is too talkative. I will go and teach him a lesson."
Shen Ruolan raised her hand to Ji Han and said, "Don't do that. If you beat him up now, it will only prove that I'm getting paid a sky-high price."
The master and servant walked and talked, and soon they arrived at their guest room.
Shen Ruolan handed the child to Aunt Liu and said, "Aunt Liu, please take good care of the child. I'm going to go out for a while."
Ji Han was worried about Shen Ruolan, so he followed her and said, "Master, I will go with you."
Shen Ruolan turned around and said to him, "You stay and help me look after the children, and let Ziyuan accompany me."
"Yes, master, madam." Ji Han, Ziyuan and others responded in unison.
Not long after, Shen Ruolan brought Ziyuan to Madam Shen's yard. Before she even entered the door, she saw her frowning in the yard. She hurriedly stepped forward and said to her apologetically, "Aunt, I'm so sorry. I've caused trouble for Medicine King Valley."
When Madam Shen saw Shen Ruolan coming, she quickly stepped forward, held her hand and said, "Ruolan, you are here."
After she finished speaking, she sighed, looked at Shen Ruolan with a helpless expression and said, "Ruolan, to be honest, this is not a big deal, but the Shen family has an ancestral precept that the descendants of the Shen family are not allowed to use medical skills to make a huge profit, so the moment the villagers heard that you wanted a huge price, everyone panicked."
Shen Ruolan said to Madam Shen, "Aunt, I was just so mad at Mr. Liu that I asked for such a high price to irritate him. Go tell everyone that I will not charge exorbitant prices to treat patients in Medicine King Valley."
Madam Shen felt relieved after hearing what Shen Ruolan said. She looked at Shen Ruolan and said, "Young Master Liu is an old pervert. When you see him in the future, stay away from him."
Without Shen Ruolan's detailed explanation, Mrs. Shen could guess why she would do such a trick on Mr. Liu. It must be because he flirted with Ruolan that she would do such a trick on him.
Of course she wanted to trick him, as long as she could trick him, the elders would all agree with it, but the prerequisite was that the location must not be in Yaowang Valley.
"Okay, I understand." After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she chatted with Mrs. Shen for a while before returning to her room.
After returning to the room, Shen Ruolan instructed Ji Han, "Ji Han, go tell that Liu that I can no longer treat his illness and tell him not to give an answer tomorrow."
"Yes, master." Ji Han responded loudly.
In Liu Rui's guest room, he heard that Shen Ruolan would not treat him anymore. He said to Ji Han with an unhappy look on his face: "What does your master mean by this? Does the word 'easy to play' appear on my face?"
One second they asked him to prepare a huge sum of money, and the next second they said they would not treat his illness. Isn't this kidding me?
Ji Han snorted at him and said, "If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being mean. Now everyone in the Medicine King Valley is saying that my master is charging exorbitant prices for medical treatment in the name of the Medicine King Valley. My master has been so angry that he won't see anyone anymore."
After hearing what Ji Han said, Liu Rui said with a guilty look on his face: "Can I be blamed for this? If you want to blame someone, it's the people in Medicine King Valley who are gossiping."
Ji Han warned Liu Rui with a sullen face: "Whatever you say, if you come to cause trouble for my master, don't blame me for being rude."
As soon as he finished speaking, he flew away.
At noon, when Shen Ruolan arrived at the Shen family dining room, she saw that everyone from the second and third branches of the Shen family was there. She bowed to everyone and said hello, "Second aunt, third uncle, third aunt, you are here."
Madam Shen Er and Uncle Shen San responded to Shen Ruolan with a “hmm” and said, “Ruolan, hurry up and sit down to eat.”
Madam Shen San pointed to Shen Ruolan and said, "Yes, if you don't come, Ruolan might forget about her third aunt."
Mrs. Shen's words made Shen Ruolan pause for a moment, and she smiled at her and said, "Third Aunt, you are too kind. Ruolan will never forget what kind of place Medicine King Valley is, even if she forgets anyone..."
Shen Ruolan paused and continued, "After all, you are all my mother's relatives."
Shen Ruolan understood that her third aunt was warning her. This was Medicine King Valley, not a place for her to act wildly.
She also told her implicitly that they were merely her mother's relatives and had little to do with her, and that they would not have any improper thoughts about this place.
Madam Shen saw that the two of them were very hostile, so she quickly persuaded Madam Shen San, "Sister-in-law, this is Ruolan's first time in Medicine King Valley, so it's normal that she doesn't know the rules. You should just say less."
After hearing what Madam Shen said, Madam Shen smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, I was just joking with Ruolan. It's okay."
After saying that, she looked at Shen Ruolan and asked, "Ruolan, don't you think so?"
Shen Ruolan glanced at Third Madam Shen and said to her calmly, "Third Aunt is right."
After that, she stopped talking.
Uncle Shen was displeased to see his wife making things difficult for his niece, but for the sake of his wife's face, he did not embarrass her on the spot.
