Chapter 392 Grandma, is that helping? You're just making things worse!

Chu Ruohan snuggled against him and said in a muffled voice, "I know, but the situation is urgent. Besides, with you here, what am I afraid of?"

She was indeed angered by Guo Yunzhou's tantrums and shameless behavior; otherwise, she wouldn't have come up with this "bitter trick."

Gu Junze gently patted her back, his heart filled with tenderness.

His young wife appears gentle and mild-mannered, but she is actually intelligent, decisive, and acts with a clear sense of method.

"What about Guo Yunzhou and his wife..." Chu Ruohan looked up and asked uncertainly.

“I have already ordered them to be sent to prison.” Gu Junze’s voice was calm, but it carried an undeniable decisiveness. “Disturbing the women of the General’s Mansion and attempting to frame them, these two charges alone are enough to keep them in prison for a while.”

Upon hearing this, Chu Ruohan breathed a sigh of relief.

Putting them in jail will at least keep them quiet for a while, and it can be considered a painful lesson for the Guo family.

"But what about my mother..."

"After this incident, my mother-in-law will probably understand that some people can't be solved by simply giving in," Gu Junze said. "I will make it clear to her again that she must not have any further involvement with the Guo family."

Just then, Yu Ling's voice rang out from outside: "General, Madam, Doctor Qian has arrived."

Chu Ruohan and Gu Junze exchanged a glance. Chu Ruohan quickly lay back down, closed her eyes, and looked weak.

Gu Junze shook his head helplessly and got up to open the door.

Doctor Qian came in carrying his medicine box. Seeing Chu Ruohan's "pale" face, he went to take her pulse.

Gu Junze stopped him, saying, "Dr. Qian is a fake." He then gave a meaningful look to the door.

Doctor Qian immediately understood. But he still symbolically took Chu Ruohan's pulse, and Chu Ruohan cooperated by breathing "weakly".

"Madam's pregnancy is going very smoothly, don't worry!"

Gu Junze politely saw Dr. Qian off. When he returned, Chu Ruohan had already sat up and poured herself a glass of water.

"Was your acting convincing?" she asked with a smile.

Gu Junze reached out and gently pinched her nose: "If you misbehave again next time, you'll regret it."

Despite saying that, his tone was full of doting affection.

Chu Ruohan stuck out her tongue, but her heart was at peace.

Outside, upon hearing that her daughter was alright, Chu's mother finally felt relieved, but her face was still filled with guilt and self-blame.

Chu Yueshu gently comforted her from the side, "Mother, my sister is a lucky person, she will be alright. You must be tired, go back and rest first."

Chu's mother nodded, and supported by Chu Yueshu, she left, turning back every few steps.

After the courtyard gate closed gently, Chu Ruohan lifted the covers, got out of bed quietly, walked to the window, and opened a crack.

In the courtyard, Song Ruyan stood with her hands on her hips, her eyebrows raised, and her almond eyes wide open, scolding Doctor Qian, who was huddled to the side, looking dejected.

Dr. Qian, clutching his medicine box, squatted on the ground, looking like a wilted eggplant, his head almost buried in his knees.

Chu Ruohan's lips curled up almost imperceptibly.

Her recent, excruciating stomach pain had indeed brought them all back.

"What's wrong?" Chu Ruohan pushed open the door and slowly walked out.

Upon seeing Chu Ruohan, Song Ruyan felt as if she had found a pillar of support. She quickly stepped forward, took Chu Ruohan's hand, and began to pour out her grievances.

"Young Madam! You be the judge!"

She pointed at Dr. Qian and said angrily, "Dr. Qian went to the outskirts of the city to provide free medical services today. I saw that he was too busy to handle everything by himself, so I kindly went to lend a hand."

"Who knew he wouldn't appreciate my good intentions and even said I was making things worse!"

Upon hearing this, Dr. Qian abruptly raised his head, his honest and unassuming face filled with a look of unbearable sorrow.

"Grandma, is that helping? You're just making things worse!"

Song Ruyan glared at her: "How did I cause trouble?"

"Take that guy who was complaining about his arm pain, for example. I could tell his arm was obviously dislocated, so I kindly helped him set it. 'Snap!' It was so quick and easy!"

Dr. Qian's lips twitched, and his voice was trembling with tears: "Grandma, that person had rheumatism and pain, and you almost broke their arm! Their family is going to come after me with a knife!"

Song Ruyan curled her lip dismissively: "Isn't that a dead end? Besides, he wasn't in pain then, was he? He was just scared!"

Chu Ruohan's eyes twitched as she listened, but she tried her best to maintain a calm expression.

Song Ruyan became more and more convinced of her point as she spoke, and continued, "And then there was that old lady who said she was dizzy and lightheaded. I saw that her face was pale and her lips were dry, which was obviously heatstroke. I thought about giving her gua sha, but I didn't have any suitable tools on hand, so I used a piece of broken porcelain..."

"Pfft—" Doctor Qian almost fainted because he couldn't catch his breath. He pointed at Song Ruyan, his finger trembling like a leaf in the autumn wind.

"You, is that gua sha? You're trying to bleed her! The old lady's children immediately knelt down and begged me to save their mother!"

"I was just trying to help her get better quickly because the situation was urgent!" Song Ruyan said confidently. "I remember there was a child who was vomiting and had diarrhea. Dr. Qian, you prescribed some mild medicine for him, but I said it would take too long to work, so I gave him a big bowl of strong Coptis chinensis water. I guarantee he will never dare to eat anything indiscriminately again!"

Dr. Qian clutched his chest, looking utterly dejected: "That child was only three years old! He almost passed out from the bitterness of your bowl of bitter medicine. His parents held him and cried as if the sky had fallen, saying I was a quack doctor who harmed people!"

Chu Ruohan sighed, utterly speechless.

Song Ruyan, truly... commendable courage.

She was incredibly unlucky to have encountered this patient...

Dr. Qian finally found someone to confide in, tugging at Chu Ruohan's sleeve, "Young Madam, please be the judge! I've been practicing medicine for over ten years, and today I almost ruined my reputation in my later years!"

He turned to Song Ruyan, pleading with a sob in his voice, "Miss Song, Grandmother! I beg you, please just stay in the manor peacefully and don't go out to 'help' anymore, okay?"

Song Ruyan, however, looked unconvinced and put her hands on her hips, saying, "I was trying to help you! You're just too honest and inflexible. You believe whatever people say about pain. What if you get scammed?"

"I'm doing this to help you out, so you won't get bullied!"

Upon hearing this, Dr. Qian rolled his eyes and was completely speechless, only able to squat on the ground and draw circles.

Chu Ruohan smiled helplessly and stepped forward to help Doctor Qian up.

"Dr. Qian, Ruyan did mean well, but her methods were a bit too extreme. That's just her nature; she's a bit impulsive, but she has no malicious intent."

Yu Ling stood to the side, her eyes darting around, and suddenly a sly smile appeared on her lips.

"Ruyan, why are you so concerned about Dr. Qian? Could it be... that you've fallen for him?"
