Chapter 622: If You’re Not Satisfied, You Can Scram

Madam Miao really wanted to say, “I don’t accept it!”
But not to mention how miserable she had been at home. Even now, sitting in this small flower hall for a while, she felt extremely uncomfortable.
There were parts that were difficult to talk about, unbearable itching, and she couldn’t help but worry about various disgusting pus oozing out from under her.
It was bad enough at home, but when she went out to banquets, she worried all day about her clothes getting dirty. This embarrassment made her wish she could dig a hole and bury herself!
After being pointed out by Liu Shimei last time, Miao Linglong had come back and analyzed the pros and cons with her.
She had also gathered all the concubines and questioned them about their conditions. Out of all the concubines, only one didn’t have similar symptoms!
The only one without symptoms was the one who had recently entered the household. Just because she didn’t have symptoms now didn’t mean she wouldn’t in the future.
At that moment, Madam Miao knew that what Liu Shimei had said was not exaggerated. It was all true!
“Fine!”
Madam Miao could only reluctantly agree, but she was still dissatisfied with the fourth condition. “But I came to you for treatment. Are you trying to pass me on to your apprentices?”
“That doesn’t quite count as passing you on.” Liu Shimei was very clear.
Facing vile people, one should have a set of methods to deal with them. Evil had to be treated with the methods used to deal with evil.
These kind of people were inevitably capable of betraying trust, and she could tolerate it for the sake of the consultation fee. However, spending too much time on such people was not worth it; she might as well do some good deeds to accumulate some virtue!
She decided to be polite before resorting to force, so she wrote up a contract to avoid any future disputes where Madam Miao might renege on the agreement, as she would suffer losses then.
Therefore, the fourth clause stated: Diagnosis and prescription are my responsibilities. I will personally handle all preliminary tasks. As long as you follow my advice for three treatment courses, you will see results. The subsequent treatments involve internal and external medications, as well as body cleansing, tasks that my apprentices can handle!
After explaining, she smiled and added, “Of course, Madam Miao can refuse if she wishes.”
This was the crux of the matter!
If you’re unwilling, you don’t have to undergo the treatment. You sought me out; I didn’t beg you!
Madam Miao felt stifled.
In the end, she could only accept that she could only rely on Liu Shimei for her treatment!
She had to swallow her pride and asked, “The last condition, does Duke An need to accompany the contract to the Capital and sign it with the magistrate?”
Liu Shimei remained calm, “Naturally, that’s required. Otherwise, if you go back on the contract, violating its terms and causing me unwarranted losses, how can I handle it?”
Huangfu Lingyao chuckled.
In fact, his wife’s words were quite sarcastic: I doubt your integrity; I don’t trust you!
The Silly Second Prince had been silent all along, focusing entirely on the serious discussion. Liu Shimei openly talked about her fiance, not avoiding the topic of bathing and other matters, to the point that even Madam Miao and her daughter didn’t think much of it!
Now, hearing Huangfu Lingyao laugh, they suddenly realized that there was a man present, feeling embarrassed!
Madam Miao’s face turned cold, “Eldest Young Miss Liu, allowing King Dun Yu to hear all this here is really shameless!”
“Shameless again!” Liu Shimei sighed, “In matters of medicine, where does shame come into play? If everyone cared about shame, should sick people just die?!”
Her attitude was resolute, making it clear: I allowed him to be here, so what? If you’re not satisfied, you can scram!
Madam Miao wanted to say something else, but Miao Linglong pulled her hand and said, “Mother, Doctor Liu has always doted on her fiance. It doesn’t matter.”
Another battle of wills, and she feared it might lead to a collapse!
