Chapter 367: My goodness, when did she say it could definitely be cured?
"It seems that I was too expecting. I thought the miracle doctor would be able to cure me, but I didn't expect..."
As he spoke, Qi Mingjing turned his head away as if he had lost all his strength. The disappointment and grief in his eyes made it impossible for anyone present to offer comfort.
"Miracle doctor...Miracle doctor...Is there really no hope for my son?"
Yang Sulan staggered a few steps, reached out and grabbed Ran Qingxuan's arm tightly, her eyes full of panic and disbelief.
Ran Qingxuan seemed afraid to look directly at Madam Qi. He lowered his eyes and nodded with difficulty.
"I carefully examined his abdomen, but I didn't expect it to be so serious. Forgive my poor medical skills, I can't treat him for the time being..."
Ran Qingxuan's face was filled with shame. Qi Minghe, who was helping to carry the stretcher, choked with sobs and was unable to utter complete sentences for a moment.
In his opinion, Ran Qingxuan had superb medical skills, and even his suturing techniques were not like those of ordinary doctors. Could it be that he was really too confident and thought that Ran Qingxuan could cure his elder brother?
"Miracle doctor... he just can't cure it for now, but he will be able to cure it later, right?"
Ran Qingxuan frowned slightly and a trace of shame flashed across his face.
"This is the first time I've seen such a disease. I can only prescribe some medicine to relieve the pain temporarily. As for treatment..."
Having said that, Ran Qingxuan glanced at everyone present and continued.
"A fellow disciple of mine will come to Cangzhou in a few days, so I would like to ask him to come and take a look. Perhaps with his medical skills, he can reduce the mass in Qi Mingjing's abdomen..."
The other members of the Qi family had sad faces. They all wanted to grasp any glimmer of hope, so they did not refuse.
But after the people carrying Qi Mingjing left, Ran Qingxuan's eyes suddenly narrowed when he met someone, and then quickly returned to normal.
The Qi family still had hope. After inviting people to the main hall, a servant served them tea. Duan Yi did not leave, but sat in the top seat and looked at Ran Qingxuan.
"Is Mingjing's illness really so difficult?"
Hearing this, everyone's eyes turned to her.
Ran Qingxuan froze while drinking tea, then put down the cup and nodded.
"It's not easy to hold on until now. If I hadn't taken medicine and supplemented myself for many years, I'm afraid I would have died long ago..."
Ran Qingxuan lowered her head silently with guilt as she spoke. This uncharacteristic behavior made Gu Yanchen, who was sitting next to her, feel a little strange.
Because based on his understanding of Ran Qingxuan, she would not show such an expression, nor would she say such cruel words.
If it's not really tricky, then there must be other reasons.
The first and second wives of the Qi family were worried and kept silent. The third wife was the same. She lowered her head and seemed very sad, but her eyes were clear and there was no emotion.
Sure enough, after a while Qi Guang raised his head, and his eyes quickly turned scarlet and moist.
"Brother, second brother, Mingjing has been in this condition for more than a year or two. The child is suffering, and we as parents are even more distressed. No matter what, our Qi family can afford the money.
From now on, let Mingjing do whatever he wants to do, and don't stop him from eating whatever he wants. Even if he wants to live in seclusion in the forest, we will find a nice place with beautiful mountains and rivers to keep him alive.
He has not left his house for more than ten years. If he wants to go out and have a look, he can go. This is the last thing we as parents can do for him..."
Qi Guang's words were full of emotion. If Ran Qingxuan hadn't known in advance that Qi Guang had asked Ma Kui for 1,200 taels of silver to buy Qi Minghe's life, she might have been so moved that she burst into tears like the first and second wives of the Qi family.
Yang Sulan was leaning back in a chair, supported by the old maid. She had been crying silently at first, but when she heard Qi Guang's words, she burst into tears.
"My poor son, why did such a good child become like this..."
"Sister-in-law, please don't get excited. The miracle doctor also asked her fellow disciples to treat Ming Jing. This means that the miracle doctor's fellow disciples have the ability to cure Ming Jing. If you are so sad, Ming Jing will definitely feel bad if he knows about it."
Ran Qingxuan was holding the cup and fiddling with the tea leaves floating on it. When he heard what Madam Wei said, he sneered in his heart.
My goodness, when did she say with certainty that her fellow disciples could cure people?
She misinterpreted her meaning and relayed it to Yang Sulan, who was worried about her son, making her subconsciously believe that the person who came could cure her son.
Once everyone present has this idea, they will place all their hopes on the visitor. If the disease is not cured, then any other treatment plans she proposes may not be adopted.
Ran Qingxuan looked calmly at Madam Wei who came forward to comfort him. She had a young and pretty face, a slender figure, and a dignified manner, without the petty airs of an ordinary concubine.
No matter how you look at this person, she doesn't look like the type who would become someone's concubine.
If Qi Mingjing had not mentioned Madam Wei before, Ran Qingxuan would have thought that Qin Ruoyun who appeared before was the concubine.
Gu Yanchen, who was sitting next to her, looked thoughtfully at Madam Wei who was wiping Yang Sulan's tears.
The doubt that flashed across his eyes did not escape Ran Qingxuan's eyes. He suppressed his doubts and looked over as well.
But no matter how she observed, she couldn't see anything unusual. It seemed that she was just a gentle and scheming woman.
The Qi family originally had hope, but now they were poured a bucket of cold water on their heads. They had no choice but to wait for the fellow disciples that Ran Qingxuan mentioned to arrive before they could start the treatment.
"You must have been exhausted from the long journey, Doctor. We have already arranged accommodation for you. Please go back to your room and rest for a while."
An unnatural look flashed across Ran Qingxuan's face, as if she was very embarrassed to accept it, which made Wei Xue, who was meeting her for the first time, sneer in her heart.
Sure enough, after Ran Qingxuan and the others left the main hall, Wei Xue took a handkerchief and pretended to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, and spoke softly.
"Ming He, this woman is so young, is she really the miracle doctor you mentioned?"
"How can this be false?"
"But if she is a miracle doctor, she should be able to easily cure diseases that ordinary doctors cannot. She called her fellow disciples. Could it be that there are two more miracle doctors?"
The Qi family was silent on the spot, because what Wei Xue said made sense. A person with superb medical skills can be a miracle doctor, but since she called someone, it can only be said that her medical skills are not good enough. How can she be called a miracle doctor?
Apart from the others who looked skeptical and surprised, only Qi Minghe and Qi Dong disagreed.
The two men heard with their own ears that Ma Kui admitted that Qi Guang hired someone to kill someone, but when Ma Kui was brought back to Cangzhou for trial, he said that he was dissatisfied with Qi Minghe's behavior and killed him on a whim.
As for Qi Guang's murder, Qi Minghe did not tell his father. Even if he said it in court, it would be cleverly resolved by the third wife Qin Ruoyun, who pushed everything onto Ma Kui.
The other people in the Qi family just thought that Qi Minghe had angered Ma Kui, so they didn't think much about it.
Qi Dong also knew that the consequences of pushing someone into a corner would be unimaginable, so he signaled Qi Minghe not to be impulsive. Now, the two of them did not buy into the concerns expressed by the third room.
