Liu Jinfeng didn't know where Ergouzi got his confidence from, and she was skeptical about her man's words.

Finally, she glanced at the villagers who were only interested in watching the fun, and still felt that she had to say something. She stood in the crowd and said loudly: "Do you still need to ask this? Of course you don't have to pay! We are not as shameless as you!"

Old Ma immediately cast a vicious look at Liu Jinfeng.

"Ergou's, what did you say?"

Liu Jinfeng wanted to retort, but Er Gouzi pulled her behind him and said, "Who are you glaring at? Did my wife say anything wrong?"

In the crowd, only Er Gouzi and his wife spoke for a while.

Seeing that the other villagers were silent, Shen Wu just opened his mouth to say something when Shen Lianchuan's calm gaze immediately swept over him.

Shen Wu immediately shut his mouth and pulled Shen Chunsheng, who was about to speak.

When Shen Xiachang saw that his father and brother were silent, he looked at his father and also remained silent. However, the youngest, Shen Dongting, lost his temper.

Shen Dongting rolled up his sleeves, looking like he was ready to fight to the death with Old Ma. Just when he was about to do so, he suddenly realized that his father and brothers had not said a word yet. Then he looked at Sixth Grandpa, who seemed calm and composed. Suddenly, his worries disappeared.

Old Ma knew very well that now was not the time to quarrel with others. She sneered at Ergou and his wife and glanced at Shen Rong's family.

Seeing that Shen Wu and his son, her relatives, did not say anything, she looked even more proud. "Doctor Shen, did you see that? There are so many people but few of them speak up for you. Everyone thinks you should pay compensation!"

Shen Lianchuan stroked his beard and said calmly, "Hey! If that's the case, how much compensation does the old sister-in-law want?"

"Ten... no! Fifty taels!" Old Ma opened her hand and asked for fifty taels.

This price was decided by Mr. Ma after careful consideration.

The two old guys, Shen Lianchuan, are also stupid. It is completely reasonable for them to treat the villagers and make some money in the process.

With Changsheng, that fool, it was obvious that he couldn't save much money, but Shen Lianchuan did have some skills, so Old Ma felt that Shen Lianchuan could afford the money.

The villagers gasped. Oh my god! Fifty taels of silver, marrying a wife is only three or five taels, but this old Ma asked for fifty taels right away. Is she crazy about silver?

"This old Ma is really evil-minded!"

"Who said it wasn't? How dare she ask that?"

"Why are you embarrassed? Her family has 19 grandchildren waiting to get married! If she doesn't have a thick skin, how can her grandchildren get married?"

Everyone started discussing again, and at this moment, everyone seemed to be watching the fun as if it had nothing to do with them.

Shen Lianchuan looked embarrassed, "Sister-in-law, aren't you embarrassing me?"

Having said that, he did not bargain with Old Ma, but just sighed, "Forget it, since my sister-in-law insists on this, I can only accept it..."

Before Shen Lianchuan finished speaking, Mrs. Ma couldn't help but smile. She didn't expect things to go so smoothly.

The villagers were also shocked.

"What? Fifty taels, Shen Lianchuan is willing to pay?"

"Isn't this Doctor Shen as mentally damaged as that girl from the Gu family?"

Everyone was discussing this matter.

"Don't talk about it for now, let's see what Doctor Shen says!"

"That's right, I haven't finished talking yet! What are you arguing about?"

Seeing that everyone had quieted down, Shen Lianchuan continued with a sad face, "I am old and frail, and I don't know how many days I can live. Now this incident has happened again. It's also because I didn't teach Changsheng's wife well. I have decided to concentrate on teaching Changsheng's wife medical skills in the village. As for the villagers' medical treatment, I am powerless. You can find someone else to treat your illness in the future!"

"What? What does this mean?"

Everyone was a little overwhelmed by Shen Lianchuan's words.

"What does that mean? Doctor Shen doesn't treat patients anymore!"

"How can this be possible? It's expensive to see a doctor outside!"

"How can this Doctor Shen not treat patients?"

Seeing that everyone was panicking, Liu Jinfeng felt very happy. She raised her voice and said, "Why should we treat him? Today, everyone supports Old Ma's example. Everyone will follow suit in the future. Who will Doctor Shen dare to treat? Isn't that asking people to blackmail us?"

Feng quickly took over the conversation, "That's right, today you extort fifty taels, tomorrow I'll extort fifty taels, Doctor Shen's family doesn't run a gold mine, where does so much money come from?"

Mrs. Lu also spoke up, "Who would dare to pay for treating patients?

If this matter gets out, even if you take money to hire a doctor to see a doctor, those doctors won't dare to see you!

Uncle Six, you have been collecting herbs in the mountains in recent years to make medicine affordable for everyone. Now is a good opportunity to take a good rest and teach my untalented daughter a lesson so that she can earn a living in the future."

Sixth Grandpa nodded, looking quite agreeable.

The villagers who were watching the fun suddenly panicked.

If Shen Rong still can't understand what her grandfather means by now, then she has lived in vain.

She said with a guilty look on her face: "Grandpa, it is your granddaughter-in-law who has disappointed you. Don't worry, I will definitely work hard to improve my medical skills in the future. Today's incident was caused by me, so I will take the compensation money."

After Shen Rong finished speaking, she turned around and went into the house to get the silver.

Sixth Grandpa did not stop them. He stood there expressionlessly, looking at the villagers in the yard without saying a word.

When the villagers saw that Dr. Shen was serious, they immediately panicked.

"Mrs. Ma, this matter cannot be settled in this way!"

"Yes! It's common for a doctor to fail to cure an illness. If she is cured, it's because you are lucky. Your girl is unlucky. This is her fate. If she was lucky, would she be able to marry into your family?"

"It's not that Xiaocao has a bad fate. Lou begged for help all day yesterday, but old Ma was unwilling to give out anything for Xiaocao's medical treatment. It's clearly old Ma's own fault!" Seeing that old Ma was about to arouse public anger, Feng was no longer afraid.

"Yes! I live next door and I heard it. Old Ma kept saying that she didn't want Xiaocao to come to see the doctor. If she had agreed one day earlier, the child wouldn't have been burned into a fool."

Liu Jinfeng and Feng sang the same tune and told everything that had happened in the Ma family over the past two days.

"Mrs. Ma, it was you who delayed the child's medical treatment. How dare you blackmail Doctor Shen?"

"Are you crazy about money?"

"She's not crazy about money, she's obviously crazy about her granddaughter-in-law."

…………

Everyone was talking at once, spitting at the faces of the old Ma family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Lou held her daughter in her arms, her body hunched over, her face almost buried in her daughter's body.

Old Ma is not timid at all.

"It's none of your business! Doctor Shen has admitted it, but you are the only one talking so much nonsense!"

"Mrs. Ma, why is it none of our business? Because of your disturbance, Doctor Shen won't dare to treat the villagers anymore. Then we have to go to the town to see a doctor. Doctors in the town are so expensive! You have to pay for the extra money?"

An old man in his sixties pointed at Old Ma and said angrily.
