The freckled woman and the fat woman exchanged a glance and nodded slightly.
They ca this ti specifically to cause trouble for Su Jinxiu Workshop, hoping to tarnish its reputation a little, and if they could completely ruin it, there would be a large reward.
Earlier Long Yue had said that if the matter was true, they would kick Embroiderers’ Pavilion out, which was exactly what they wanted, right?
The two won instantly beca excited and eagerly stepped forward to speak boldly.
"Oh, owner, it’s like this, the two of us are good sisters, and last ti we heard people say that the clothes from Su Jinxiu Workshop were nice, so we ca to take a look, each bought a piece and went ho. Coincidentally, we both wore our new skirts the next day. Who knew? Before half a day had passed, we broke out in rashes, feeling terribly uncomfortable!"
"Yes, look at this, tsk tsk, is this ant for people to wear? Even pigs wouldn’t want to wear this!"
The two won scrambled to show their arms to Long Yue.
Long Yue glanced and exclaid, "Is it very serious? Look, isn’t it serious?"
She looked at the crowd watching the drama.
Originally, these people were about to leave, but as soon as Long Yue, the "Evil Woman Li," appeared, they gathered back.
"It is serious. What do you want to do about it?"
A young married woman glanced, then looked at Long Yue with an expression that seed to be waiting to see how she would handle it.
Long Yue nodded and clapped her hands lightly. Instantly, four servants blocked the entrance.
"Yun Niang, go and call the nearby renowned doctors, and also invite that famous physician from Baicaoxiang."
Upon hearing these words, Yun Niang and the two won turned pale.
"Mrs. Li?"
"Why call the doctors?"
"Yes, why call doctors? Su Jinxiu Workshop compensating would suffice, calling doctors is too troubleso..."
As they spoke, their eyes evaded for a mont, clearly guilty.
Initially, Yun Niang did not understand why Long Yue wanted to do this, but seeing the two won’s reaction, she realized.
This was a deliberate framing. To expose the conspiracy, just find renowned doctors to take a look. Those doctors care about their reputation and wouldn’t diagnose recklessly.
Moreover, she had invited her master, Duanmu Nan.
That person was truly a famous doctor—or rather, to call him a miracle doctor would not be an exaggeration. With him around, the conspiracy of these two would be nowhere to hide!
Yun Niang glanced at Long Yue with admiration, then instructed the three female workers nearby to quickly call the doctors.
The two won were dumbfounded.
Those were so of the most renowned doctors in the vicinity! Wouldn’t their little tricks be imdiately seen through?
"No need, really, no need!"
"Yes, landlord, you’re really a good person, but... truly no need, hehe..."
Their smiles were worse than crying, and Long Yue chuckled as she stepped forward to pat them on the shoulders.
"No need? How can that be? You’re seriously ill, and if sothing unexpected happens, causing a life-threatening situation, I, as a small landlord, can’t afford the responsibility. Let’s invite so doctors for a consultation, shall we? See, I’m being considerate, aren’t I?"
The two won turned as pale as vegetables.
Inviting one doctor would have sufficed; maybe they could muddle through. But arranging a consultation? You’re clearly trying to expose us, aren’t you?
The two won exchanged a glance, then the freckled woman directly headed outside: "Sorry, I forgot there was an urgent matter at ho, I’ll co again another day!"
" too, there’s no one watching my child, I must go take care of them!"
The two said as they hurried outside, with Long Yue coldly shouting from behind: "Stop!"
Imdiately, two servants blocked their way.
The four servants were rather burly and trained in martial arts, specifically assigned by Long Yue to Yun Niang to prevent unexpected incidents. Not to ntion the four, the two won couldn’t handle even one and were thus blocked at the entrance.
The two won beca anxious, stomping and shouting: "What are you doing? Trying to privately detain us? Aren’t you too bold?"
"Exactly, we will report this to the governnt, just you wait!"
"Report to the governnt?"
Long Yue chuckled, daring to confront even the Young Madam of the Pri Minister’s Mansion, not fearing them at all.
"Great, let the governnt officials co and witness, to see who is doing wrong, and send that person to prison!"
"..."
The faces of the two won looked increasingly grim.
They tried again to head outside, but the result was the sa; those four burly n were like a copper wall, impenetrable!
With so many people gathered together, it attracted more curious passers-by who stopped to watch.
Fortunately, this was Zhuque Street, the largest main street in Shengjing City, with the street being thirty zhang (100 ters) wide, so the crowd at the entrance wouldn’t cause a traffic jam.
The crowd grew larger, just what Long Yue wanted.
After a while, several nearby renowned doctors arrived, having been generously hired, and Duanmu Nan also ca.
Others were automatically ignored by him as he smiled and looked at Long Yue, thinking, what mischief is this girl up to now?
Long Yue blinked at him and stuck out her tongue adorably, a stark contrast to her usual fierce and terrifying "evil woman" image.
"What is Madam calling us for?"
A kindly old doctor, his hair and beard turning white, held a silver ingot and looked smilingly at this provider of wealth.
These doctors, usually a house call might fetch at most five taels, and here she offers ten taels... Goodness, wealth indeed makes people feel like kneeling and flattering naturally, how can this be?
Long Yue laughed, "It’s nothing much, these two aunts have rashes on their arms, could you take a look at what’s going on?"
"Ah, sure, sure!"
Apart from Duanmu Nan, there were five doctors who stepped forward to examine the two won’s pulses. The won wanted to resist, but with the four burly n nearby watching closely, how could they?
"Hiss—this seems to be caused by contact with so plant juice... This needs imdiate dication, otherwise it might result in complications!"
An old doctor inhaled sharply, surprised by the redness on her arm, as so areas were even suppurating.
"Indeed, but it’s unclear what juice it is, making it hard to prescribe dicine. Let take another look..."
"It’s First-Rank Crimson."
The several old doctors jostled around wanting a clear view, suddenly a gentle voice ca from behind.
Uh... everyone paused, then the first old doctor who spoke slapped his forehead in sha: "Right, it’s First-Rank Crimson, oh dear, look at this old man’s mory, not good at all! Sir..."
He turned around wanting to pay respects, but instead saw a young man.
The young man wore an elegant light blue robe, with one hand behind and the other in front, his face bearing a faint smile, appearing very kind.
The old doctor’s smile turned stiff, feeling sowhat embarrassed.
They, having lived so many years, hadn’t figured out the plant juice, yet this young man could tell just by glancing from afar...
Bro, why say it outright, wouldn’t it have been better to hint? Do we not need our dignity?
Ah, the old doctor felt a fleeting sadness...
