The fact that Old Man Lu knew medicine could no longer be kept secret. Perhaps it was his professional instinct, or perhaps Old Man Lu never intended to hide it. So, the Mo family found out, and soon the villagers found out as well.

In ancient times, there were relatively few doctors, so when one appeared in a village, it attracted a lot of attention, and everyone was trying to figure out what to do with him!

For farmers, seeing a doctor is incredibly difficult, almost impossible, because they have no money! So they usually just endure minor ailments and get through them. If it's a serious illness, they'll go to a doctor for some medicine, hoping to make the pain less unbearable, but they still have to tough it out!

They also want to be more comfortable, but reality doesn't allow it, so they can only grit their teeth and endure it. Being healthy and pain-free in a farmhouse is a pretty good thing!

The doctor's medicine also costs money, and his medical skills are relatively limited. Now that we've heard that the Mo family has a doctor who knows medicine, that's incredible!

According to Tao, this is a doctor, and his medical skills are excellent, even better than the famous doctor in town. Tsk!

The key point is that this Dr. Lu is quite easy to talk to and will patiently answer any questions. He doesn't have that arrogant attitude or look down on farmers, which makes many people want to see Dr. Lu.

Which family doesn't have elderly members? Which elderly person doesn't suffer from illness? Who wouldn't want their elders to have their pain relieved? If they were free from illness and could take care of themselves, that would be a great thing for them. If they could even do some work after recovering, that would be even better!

Consultation fees and medication costs are the main concerns. Tao said they are not very expensive. Even a poor family like Tao can afford them, so most people in the village should be fine!

Of course, it depends on the situation, but it's still much better than in town!

Every little bit helps, and most importantly, the medical skills are excellent!

Then it's worth the money!

But since they came to the Mo family, even though he was a doctor, he didn't set up a stall or anything to practice medicine and make consultations. You can't expect everyone to come to the Mo family to see a doctor!

Since they came to the Mo family, they were probably just there to visit them. They only offered medical treatment in emergencies, so it's clear they weren't there specifically to treat people!

That's a different story; you can't force people to do that!

So, some villagers went to Grandma Mo and asked her to inquire and plead with Dr. Lu if he could examine the villagers.

This really put Old Lady Mo in a difficult position. She didn't actually know that Old Man Lu was a doctor; she was only persuaded by him to let him stay temporarily. She couldn't very well bring it up; how could she say it?

This has a strong suspicion of moral blackmail!

Since they didn't reveal their identity at the time, it means they didn't intend to practice medicine. Moreover, judging from the way they were talking in the village, they weren't just treating one person, but all the people in the village who needed treatment!

That's unrealistic. Old Mrs. Mo really couldn't agree to that; she herself felt it was impossible.

But how could the villagers let such a good opportunity pass by? They coaxed and pleaded with Grandma Mo to give it a try, since it was just a casual question and wouldn't matter.

Grandma Mo's face darkened. Although she understood them, she was also quite angry, as this was putting her and Grandpa Lu in a difficult position!

Why force someone to do something they don't want to do?

After thinking for a moment, Old Mrs. Mo sighed, "I can only ask Dr. Lu if he will agree. It's not up to me to decide! If it doesn't work out, you can't blame him. He's here for a reason, and it's his freedom to decide whether to agree or not! You have to relax and not say anything about him behind his back. Seeing a doctor is also about fate!"

The villagers were overjoyed to see that Old Lady Mo had relented, and quickly said, "No, no! We won't have any complaints, you can rest assured!"

Whether it succeeds or not, we have to give it a try. I won't be satisfied if I don't try!

The outcome was predictable. Just as Old Mrs. Mo had expected, Old Mr. Lu did not agree. His time was very precious, and he did not come to the Mo family to freeload. He came with a purpose: to find a way to cure his leg as soon as possible!

He didn't have time to diagnose the villagers or help that little girl. It was only because she was related to the Mo family that he wanted to find answers by going into the Mo family. He thought of many ways, and finally felt that going through that little girl was the fastest and most feasible!

That's why he stepped in to save them; it's not that he goes around treating everyone he meets!

He rarely treats people!

Also, he's been out for quite a while now, and time is tight. If they can't find a way to treat his brother's leg, his leg will be ruined!

Therefore, he had no interest in treating patients at all!

Although the Mo family was also a little puzzled as to why Old Man Lu was unwilling to treat patients—after all, he was a doctor, and his job was to treat patients—it was his freedom, and others couldn't say anything; they could only respect his decision.

Only Fu Mingchuan knew the truth. He snorted to himself, "That old man is burning with anxiety. He hasn't even found the answer he's looking for yet. How can he have the mind to treat patients?"

These people have good ideas, but given the current situation, they are not very realistic!

If this old man could overcome his leg injury, he might be in a better mood and, out of gratitude, give these people a medical checkup, perhaps even for free. But not now!

Besides, what kind of person is this old man? He doesn't treat people easily. Treating someone depends on fate, and in short, it depends on the person. If he thinks the person is of good character and not a vicious person, he might consider treating him!

Su Nanxi sensed something, but she didn't think that far ahead. She felt that the old man was still unwilling to give up and still wanted to find some answers he wanted from the Mo family!

She was also puzzled. There should be people whose leg injuries heal, right? The world is full of wonders. There must be one or two people with leg injuries who can stand up. This old man is so determined to find a way to cure his leg injury. He must have found something similar. So why is he so sure that Mo Qinghe's leg injury has some secret?

Could it be a matter of professional instinct?

Sigh! No matter the reason, it's highly unlikely that we'll find out why Mo Qinghe's leg injury healed!

But nothing is absolute, and Su Nanxi was too certain!

When the villagers learned that Old Man Lu had not agreed, they could only sigh in regret and could not say anything more.

Since Old Man Lu lives in the Mo family's house, if you have any complaints about Old Man Lu, the Mo family might misunderstand you, which would be bad!

That brought the matter to a close.

The Mo family hired people to do the work, and they finished it in just two days. They also took care of some minor tasks. Since they had already hired people and the work was going to be done anyway, they decided to let them do whatever they could, saving their own family members the trouble of doing it all themselves.

Let's try to pass it on the first try!

Those six people were naturally happy, because having work meant they would get paid!

After finishing work and having dinner, we paid the bill.

Yes, everyone is happy!

On their way back, the group suddenly saw a crowd gathered ahead.

"What happened?"

"Someone from another village has sneaked in!"
