Si Bao and Tang Tang suddenly ran over. When MO Ruyue saw the two little fellows, especially Tang Tang, she knew that they must have gone to do something bad.

“Mother~”

Tang Tang immediately clung onto MO Ruyue.

MO Ruyue pulled her away.

“Tell me, what did you do this time?

“Mother~”

Tang Tang acted coquettishly again, but her mother still had a serious expression on her face. Her heart was pounding as she twisted her little fingers.

“I went to sprinkle the powder on her.”

Tang Tang’s voice was as low as a mosquito’s. If it weren’t for Gu Ying and MO Ruyue’s excellent hearing, they really wouldn’t have been able to hear what she said.

“Who did you sprinkle the medicine on?

“What medicine did you use?

MO Ruyue’s heart was in her throat. This girl was getting bolder and bolder. She was a little unsure whether it was good or bad for her to study medicine.

“It’s that annoying old woman. Who asked her to bully Mother?”

“I spilled it, not my sister.”

Si Bao’s voice was much louder and clearer than Tang Tang’s.

“You want to take the blame for your sister again?

Si Bao shook his head. “Mother, please believe me. I really did it.”

MO Ruyue saw Si Bao’s serious attitude and knew that he was probably telling the truth. This child was not good at lying. Once he lied, he would reveal his flaws.

“What did you sprinkle?”

“I don’t know.”

“I don’t know.” Tang Tang shook her head.

MO Ruyue saw that these two kids didn’t even know what kind of medicine it was, yet they dared to sprinkle it on someone else. They were only five years old. Even if they were going to turn six soon, they shouldn’t be like this. She couldn’t let them be so arrogant.

“The two of you go face the wall and reflect on your mistakes. When you realize that you’ve done something wrong, come and see me.”

Tang Tang saw that her mother was really angry. Her eyes turned red, but she didn’t dare to cry. Si Bao pulled her to face the wall and reflect on her mistakes.

“Don’t be angry. The two of them are still young. Just teach them well. If they do something wrong, you can even hit them.”

Gu Ying’s opinion was the same as MO Ruyue’s. Now that MO Ruyue was teaching the two children, it was not appropriate for him to say anything as an uncle. If he said too much, MO Ruyue would be unhappy.

He was the only one who could talk about her child. Outsiders were not allowed to talk about it.

The two children had angered her to such an extent today, yet she could not bear to hit them. It was obvious how much she doted on the two children.

Si Bao and Tang Tang faced the wall and thought about it until dinner. Then, they came over to apologize to MO Ruyue and asked her not to be angry.

“Mother, I’m sorry. Don’t be angry. It was Si Bai and Tang Tang who did something wrong. They shouldn’t have drugged others.”

If she met such an annoying person again, she would do the same thing, but she would definitely do it without anyone noticing!

Si Bao was thinking that the next time he met such a person, he would spend money to hire someone to do it instead of doing it himself. That way, he would not be afraid of being discovered.

They would not let go of anyone who dared to bully their mother. They were just too careless this time.

Naturally, MO Ruyue did not know what the two kids were thinking. In fact, she had already felt sorry for them after they had spent the entire afternoon reflecting on their mistakes. However, the two kids did not come over to apologize to her.

As a mother, she couldn’t possibly punish her children when they made a mistake and then take the initiative to apologize to them.

In that case, the two children would only be more lawless next time.

When it was time for dinner, the two children finally arrived.

MO Ruyue didn’t care how the two kids admitted their mistakes. As long as they came over, she would be soft-hearted.

His face was still stiff. “Don’t do it again, understand?”

“When others make mistakes, the law will punish them. If you do it, you will become the one who makes the mistake.”

“Yes, Mother.”

The two children admitted their mistakes sincerely.

MO Ruyue’s mother, who had been sprayed with some kind of powder by the two children, felt itchy and painful all over.

She already had a sexually transmitted disease. Although there were not many festering areas on her body, the powder was effective when it touched her skin. Now, it had even penetrated into her flesh. It was so uncomfortable that she wished she could die on the spot. She kept knocking her head against the cell door, hoping that someone would come and find out that something was wrong with her.

She didn’t know that she was drugged and thought that this was how she looked when her sexually transmitted disease acted up.

She did not want to die yet.

“Someone, go and call MO Ruyue over. She’s my daughter. She’s a divine doctor. She’s a doctor. I’m sick. Ask her to come and treat me. Ask her to save me-”

As MO Ruyue’s mother spoke, she couldn’t help but reach out to scratch the itchy spots on her body. The pain was excruciating. It was worse than death.

However, no matter how she shouted, her voice was hoarse and she did not see a ghost.

At night, it was even more uncomfortable. It was simply hell. The stench on her body attracted many rats and cockroaches.

Rats and cockroaches crawled directly onto the festering parts of her body. Although the cell was dark and there was no light at all, Mrs. MO knew what was lying on her body. “Squeak squeak…”

“Ah-help-

MO Ruyue’s mother called for a long time, but no jailer came. She had already been bitten by rats several times.

“I know a few people who have come into contact with me. They might have contracted the sexually transmitted disease, but they left the village and went somewhere else. Didn’t MO Ruyue say that the sexually transmitted disease was like a plague?

“Those people are spreading sexually transmitted diseases everywhere. Aren’t you going to do anything?”

MO Ruyue’s mother was also going all out. As expected, not long after she finished speaking, two jailers ran over, but they were far away from the cell where MO Ruyue’s mother was imprisoned.

The next day, County Magistrate Wu personally came over to report to MO Ruyue. MO Ruyue’s expression turned ugly when she heard this.

“You must capture those people. If you don’t have enough manpower, apply to your superiors.”

“Also, think of a way to eliminate all the rats and cockroaches in the cell. It’s best not to let them bite people or touch you.”

“Forget it, wait for me for a while.”

MO Ruyue went to the pharmacy and took out a few medicinal powders that she had prepared earlier. She mixed them and made the newest medicinal powder in fifteen minutes.

“Take these back and eliminate all the rats and cockroaches in the cell. If it’s not enough, come and ask me again.”

MO Ruyue handed a large packet of medicinal powder to County Magistrate Wu, who received it with both hands.

“This lowly official will follow Princess Ming Yue’s instructions strictly.”

MO Ruyue did not feel sorry for Mother MO who had been bitten. To her, the stepmother was simply an enemy, and it would be better if she was bitten to death. However, the rats and cockroaches that had bitten her had carried the poison of the sexually transmitted disease, and it must not be spread to the outside world.

County Magistrate Wu also understood how the sexually transmitted disease spread. He was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. He did not care about being rude anymore. He took the powder and bid farewell to MO Ruyue before rushing back to the yamen through the mountain tunnel.

He didn’t even sit on the bench. He personally ordered the bailiffs to go to the prison to eliminate the rats and cockroaches.

MO Ruyue’s mother was unwilling to admit defeat when she saw that MO Ruyue had not come. She was unwilling to tell County Magistrate Wu who the person who had interacted with her and left the village wag

County Magistrate Wu didn’t want to listen to her either. He would know once the population was taken into account.

MO Ruyue’s mother saw that no one was paying attention to her. Moreover, those people were still holding something and scattering it outside her cell door. She was very anxious.

“What are you doing? Did MO Ruyue ask you to do this?”

“She would be struck by lightning and die a horrible death!”

County Magistrate Wu heard Mother Mo’s harsh words about MO Ruyue and immediately ordered the guards to shut her mouth.

The bailiffs were afraid of touching her, so they used sticks to execute her across the cell..
