Chapter 86 The Old Woman Shows Off Her Power
Under the incredulous gazes of the Li family, even though the old woman was helped up, she still thanked Li Mumu profusely.
Not only was the child born safely, but her young lady also woke up at this moment.
"My young lady is still a little weak and cannot express her gratitude in person. She specifically asked me to come and thank the savior." The old woman's eyes were moist with excitement.
She took out two silver bills from her bosom. The Li family members stared at her in amazement, especially Old Lady Li, who regretted it immensely. If she had not retreated out of fear, wouldn't the silver bills have been hers?
With money, can't we have enough food and warm clothes?
"This was agreed upon this morning. Please accept it, young lady." The old woman treated Li Mumu, a child, with great respect. "Please don't blame me for being blind just now. I apologize to you."
Li Mumu quickly shook her head, "I'm just a child. It's normal for you not to believe me. My mother and others didn't believe me before either."
Gu Yuru smiled and nodded. "To be honest, it's not just you. We were also a little hesitant at first."
The old woman had seen the world, so how could she not hear that someone was trying to give her a way out? "I wonder why you are in this state, and where are you going?"
"We are going to the north." Li Mumu said loudly.
"Local? Doesn't that mean we have to go through Suzhou? Okay, okay, when we get to Suzhou, my master will definitely thank you guys." The old woman said as she stuffed the banknote into Li Mumu's hand.
Li Mumu quickly waved her hands, "I don't want money."
"This is the agreed reward." The old woman advised: "It's a long journey to Suzhou. Don't blame me for being unpleasant. This money may not mean much in normal times, but it can be used to do a lot of things on the way."
Li Mumu saw that she was sincere and that she had been loyal to her master before, so even if she had doubts about herself, it was not a big mistake. It would be a bit ridiculous to change her.
Human life is not a joke.
However, she had no intention of accepting the money from the beginning.
She has no shortage of money and she has a lot of things, but what she lacks is connections.
"Grandma was the one who made the agreement with you. I didn't ask you for money." Li Mumu smiled sweetly and refused again.
The old woman was startled, "This... then consider it as our reward!"
"No need." Li Mumu smiled and shook her head. "It's fate that we met. My aunt, my brother, and I are destined to be together. How can I ask for money?"
The old woman didn't expect that the young girl was not only an excellent doctor, but also had such a noble character. Her eyes were immediately filled with admiration, and the way she looked at Gu Yuru was also different.
Such a good child naturally needs the cultivation of a good mother.
"Madam, please accept it."
The mother-in-law gave it sincerely, and this was also the intention of the woman in labor in the car.
Although Gu Yuru had been unable to help just now, she didn't want to hold her little daughter back now. "You don't have to do this. As Mumu said, it's fate. It's also because your wife and the young master are blessed. This is also Mumu's way of accumulating virtue and doing good deeds. You absolutely cannot do this."
Although Song Qiang felt a little distressed, she thought that her family did not lack the money.
Moreover, she was born into a family of officials, so she understood this matter.
Although two hundred taels of silver is not a small amount, it will eventually be spent. However, this debt of gratitude is different.
She was like this, and so was Zhang Yi.
Therefore, the Gu family had no objection to this and even helped Gu Yuru persuade the mother-in-law.
If the adults had said this at the beginning, the old woman would not take it seriously. She could guess what they were thinking, but a little kid would not have such complicated thoughts in his mind.
She refused the thank-you gift, which only shows that she has a noble character.
The mother-in-law saw this and showed special respect to this family.
Seeing that the Gu family was determined not to accept the money, Mrs. Li became interested.
"Sister, if she doesn't want it, then give it to me." Old Madam Li smiled flatteringly, "This is my granddaughter, it's the same for me. Besides, if I hadn't been there just now, she might not have been able to keep it. It's all thanks to me."
"That's right!" Li Rong blurted out. She really needed the money.
Although the old woman was in the car just now, she also heard the noise coming from the front. Combined with what she had seen before, she spat at Old Lady Li.
"Bah! Do you think I'm deaf and blind? Not only did you lie to me and nearly kill my young lady, but you were just hoping that something bad would happen to her."
Old Mrs. Li pursed her lips and said, "No..."
"No? Humph," the old woman rolled her eyes at her, then looked at Gu Yuru, "Madam, there are some things I shouldn't say, but since the young lady is our young lady's savior, I will speak frankly. As the saying goes, it's better to demolish a temple than to break up a marriage, but this family has vicious intentions, Madam, you should make plans early."
Gu Yuru smiled awkwardly, if for no other reason than that the stranger saw through the Li family's evil intentions in just a short while, while it took her so many years.
"Grandma, my mother divorced a long time ago, and we have no relationship with their family anymore." Li Mumu said with a smile, "They even wrote a letter of severance to me and my brothers."
The old woman was stunned and glanced at the Li family coldly. There was actually such a disgusting family that didn't even want their own flesh and blood.
The reason why Li Mumu said this was that she didn't want the Li family to take advantage of her when she arrived in Suzhou.
This old woman was obviously smart, and she believed that she understood what I meant.
"I see, ma'am, you are wise."
Gu Yuru smiled shyly.
As they were talking, the driver came back with a doctor, who was so tired that he got up and peed.
Li Mumu asked the doctor to check the pulse of the lady in the car. The maids were reluctant to say this, after all, they were afraid that they would feel they were being questioned.
After taking the patient's pulse, the doctor said that the patient was suffering from excessive blood loss and was a little weak, and prescribed some blood-replenishing prescriptions. However, when he heard that a three-year-old girl had performed a caesarean section to deliver the baby for his wife, he was so shocked that he was speechless for a long time.
If it weren't for the large crowd, he would have knelt down, kowtowed to Li Li Mumu, poured her tea, and worshipped her as his master.
It’s not that Li Mumu doesn’t want to teach. If teaching can save more women suffering from difficult childbirth, that would be a good thing.
However, the operation is too difficult to perform, the medical level at that time is limited, and it is very easy to get infected, so blindly performing the operation will only harm people.
A woman in her newborn state was not suitable for long-distance travel, so she could only find a place to stay nearby. Li Mumu took a pen and paper and wrote down some care instructions for the mother-in-law, left some medicine, and prepared to leave.
It’s a pity that Liuzi is in charge now. If Zhang Xiang were still alive, he would definitely not have waited so long.
At this moment, a weak voice came from the carriage, "Wait, Madam Liu, bring the child... in, let me take a look!"
The old woman smiled slightly and said, "Miss Mumu, please follow me in."
