I am the stepmother of my son, and the little villain has changed into a little cotton-padded jacket

The thin man became more and more excited as he spoke, and even walked forward and raised his fist as if to hit Ayi.

"Stop, what are you doing?" Wen Shutang spoke up immediately when he saw that something was wrong, and pushed through the crowd and walked forward to stop the man.

When the man heard the voice, he turned around and looked at Wen Shutang. After looking her up and down, he found that she was just an ordinary woman. A look of disdain immediately appeared in his eyes.

"Who are you? What does this have to do with you? Go away, don't get involved here."

"Let's talk it over nicely. I just saw you trying to hit someone," Wen Shutang said with a frown.

"Is it because I didn't speak nicely? It's because these quack doctors are going too far. My mother is eighty years old and she caught a cold and came to this clinic to get life-saving medicine. As a result, they let a little girl to examine and prescribe medicine for my mother. This is simply nonsense!" The man became more and more angry as he spoke, and turned to look at Xue Ming.

"By the way, where is that little bitch? She swore to me that there would be no problem getting the medicine, but now that something has gone wrong, why is she hiding?"

Wen Shutang's heart tightened when he heard this. Could the little girl this person was talking about be Xiao Wan?

Xue Ming frowned and stroked his long goatee, then said slowly, "Don't worry, Wan'er is in there. If it was really her fault that caused the old man to have diarrhea, I will not let her off easily. But the truth has not been found out yet, and I cannot let you slander my disciple."

"What else are you checking? My mother has had diarrhea and unbearable pain after taking the medicine from your Jishidiang. She still can't get out of bed. It was originally just a minor cold, and now that she's recovered, her condition has gotten worse!" The man had a look of indignation on his face, as if he would not give up without an explanation today.

Wen Shutang also roughly understood that the man's mother must have taken the medicine prescribed by Xiao Wan, but her condition not only did not get better, but became worse.

She frowned slightly, thinking to herself that Xiao Wan shouldn't make such a low-level mistake as prescribing the wrong medicine. The little girl is usually very careful. Could it be that she had never practiced before and made a mistake in a hurry?

After hearing what the man said, the crowd immediately began to whisper, and some even started to laugh loudly at him.

"I've always said that Jishiditang is not that good. It's fine that the two boys are lazy all day long, but now they even accept female disciples. It's simply destroying their reputation!"

Someone in the crowd immediately echoed.

"I thought that little girl was quite clever, but I didn't expect she was also clumsy. It turns out that women practicing medicine are unreliable."

"That's it."

Ah Fu recognized at a glance that the person who started the trouble was a clerk from the clinic opposite Jishidiang. He became furious when he saw him slandering his junior sister's reputation like this.

"What nonsense are you talking about! My junior sister is upright and honest, don't talk nonsense here to ruin her reputation! Everyone knows that you, Yiyuantang, purchase inferior medicinal materials and sell them to everyone at high prices. How dare you, like me, talk about us?"

Ah Fu was so angry that he told all the stories in one breath, and the direction of the rumor immediately changed.

"How could this be! How unkind! I was wondering why Yiyuantang's herbs are so expensive!"

"That's right, I got the medicine from them last time, and I felt uncomfortable for several days for no apparent reason."

Seeing that everyone started to accuse Yiyuantang of being dishonest, the young man immediately slipped away in disgrace, and went straight into Yiyuantang and never came out again.

His original intention was to take advantage of this incident to discredit Jishidiang, but he didn't expect that it would further lower the reputation of his own clinic. It was simply not worth it.

After this little episode, the man still looked at Xue Ming relentlessly: "I don't care! Now my mother is lying on the bed and can't get up, and you quacks can't get away. Either cure my mother for free, or pay me fifty taels of silver! You decide!"

Hearing this, Wen Shutang felt that this man did not really want to cause trouble. If he really had bad intentions, he would not have given Xue Ming and the others any choice and would have directly asked them for money.

"Don't worry, sir. We will not shirk our responsibility." Xue Ming said seriously.

The man waved his hand dismissively: "Don't say these useless things. What about that little girl? Let her come out and talk to me in person. What's the point of hiding from me like this?"

A hesitant look appeared on Xue Ming's face. After all, this man seemed to be a little emotionally unstable. He called Xiao Wan out and told her not to be hurt by him.

While Xue Ming was hesitating, Xiao Wan had already walked out from the inner hall and stood at the door looking at the noisy crowd. There was not a trace of cowardice on his face, but his eyes were firm and clear.

The moment Wen Shutang saw Xiao Wan, her worries instantly disappeared. She believed that Xiao Wan would never make such a low-level mistake.

The man became emotional when he saw Xiao Wan coming out: "Yes, it's you! It was you, a little girl, who prescribed the medicine for my mother. What else do you have to say?"

Ah Fu and Ah Yi subconsciously stood in front of Xiao Wan, fearing that the man would become emotional and do something bad to Xiao Wan.

Xiao Wan looked at the man, pursed her lips, and then said in a resolute voice: "I am sure that there was no problem when I prepared the medicine for the old woman that day. I did it according to the knowledge that my master taught me every day."

"Then why did my mother suffer from unbearable abdominal pain and diarrhea after taking the medicine? Explain it to me clearly! Otherwise I won't let you go." The man said angrily, looking at Xiao Wan with a fierce look, as if he wanted to rush up and beat her at any time.

"The prescription I prescribed for the old lady is called Stomach-Nourishing Decoction. It contains one liang each of Magnolia officinalis, Atractylodes macrocephala, and Pinellia ternata, half a liang each of Poria cocos, Rensheng, Amomum villosum, and Patchouli, three fen of Tangerine Peel, and one pound of Licorice. Stomach-Nourishing Decoction can treat both raw and cold internally and wind-cold externally. There is absolutely no problem with this prescription." Xiao Wan recited a complete prescription in a firm tone. Seeing her serious look, it seemed that there was nothing wrong with it.

Xue Ming also nodded in agreement: "This stomach-nourishing soup is indeed a very common but effective prescription for treating colds, and the amount of medicinal materials Wan'er mentioned is also correct."

Seeing the serious expressions of the two men, the man also began to doubt the matter, and his tone was no longer as certain as before.

"What happened? My mother started to have diarrhea after taking only a few doses of medicine. She also felt nauseous and vomited. She was in great pain. She was already emaciated, and now she has become even thinner due to the torture."

After hearing these words, the onlookers fell silent. Even Xue Ming frowned, somewhat confused as to why this happened.

Wen Shutang, who was standing nearby, suddenly asked, "Has your mother taken any nourishing herbs recently? For example, astragalus, deer antler, etc."

The man suddenly slapped his forehead and exclaimed, "Yes, yes! In order to treat my mother, I spent a lot of money, bought ginseng roots, and made soup for her! Does this count?"
