"Shen Lang, what are you laughing at?"
Seeing Shen Lang chuckle, Jin Yulan's expression instantly darkened, and she demanded, "Are you mocking my mother?"
The girl with wavy hair also looked displeased and said, "Auntie, cousin, please don't misunderstand. My husband doesn't mean that. He must know something."
Wang Yuyan, seeing the situation turn sour, quickly interjected and said to her aunt and cousin, "Mom, cousin, please don't misunderstand. My husband doesn't mean that. He must know something."
After speaking, Wang Yuyan looked at Shen Lang and asked, "Husband, is there something wrong with Qin Yanluo?"
As his wife, Wang Yuyan was well aware of Shen Lang's abilities and his personality. She immediately saw the problem.
"Qin Yanluo is a quack doctor. If you let him treat the illness, the effect might be immediate, but the patient might be left with sequelae or even die shortly after being cured."
Shen Lang recalled how Qin Yanluo had treated Zhao Shihua in the past, which was why he had no good impression of Qin Yanluo. If Shen Lang hadn't intervened back then, Zhao Shihua might have lost her life.
If Qin Yanluo were to treat Wang Yuyan's uncle, he might even end up killing him.
Shen Lang didn't want to interfere too much with others, but Wang Yuyan seemed to care deeply about her uncle. Shen Lang couldn't stand by and watch them seek out Qin Yanluo, only for something to go wrong.
"Shen Lang, how dare you slander the Ghost Doctor?"
Upon hearing Shen Lang's words, Jin Yulan was instantly enraged and said, "Do you know that Qin Yanluo's medical skills are second only to the Medical Immortal Zhang Xuanling? If he is a quack doctor, then what are you?"
"What a joke. They say colleagues are jealous of each other. Now I understand."
Saying this, Jin Yulan looked at Wang Yuyan with displeasure and said, "Yuyan, this kid has poor character. You shouldn't have married him. Auntie advises you to divorce this kid as soon as possible and find someone better. Don't waste your youth on this scumbag."
"Auntie, what you're saying is a bit much."
Hearing Jin Yulan's hurtful words, Wang Yuyan frowned and said, "Shen Lang is my husband. I know his character and his abilities. I believe him."
"Hehehe, since that's the case, then it's my fault?"
Seeing Wang Yuyan defend Shen Lang so vehemently and not give her any face, Jin Yulan sneered and said.
"Auntie, please don't misunderstand. I'm not saying it's your fault. I'm just saying Shen Lang is not that kind of person. I've seen his medical skills; they are miraculous and have reached a level of perfection." "You should let him treat Uncle."
Wang Yuyan said, "I believe that with his help, Uncle will definitely be cured. This is a good thing, isn't it?"
"Fine, I'll listen to you."
Jin Yulan let out another dismissive laugh. Then she turned to Shen Lang and asked, "Boy, since you say you can cure him, then tell me now, which medical school did you graduate from, which hospital are you currently working at, and what is your rank?"
"I'm sorry, I didn't graduate from a formal medical university, and I'm not currently employed at any hospital. I'm just an unemployed person."
Shen Lang saw Jin Yulan's contempt and disdain, but he didn't care too much for Wang Yuyan's sake. He smiled faintly and said.
"What?"
Upon hearing Shen Lang's words, Jin Yulan, the girl with wavy hair, and another girl with bangs beside them all widened their eyes in anger. "Boy, you dare to treat illnesses without graduating from a formal medical university? You're a barefoot doctor. No, do you even have a medical license?"
"Well... I actually don't."
Shen Lang indeed didn't have a medical license, which was an undeniable fact. In this era, no matter how capable you were, if you didn't have a license, you couldn't practice medicine.
"You dare to treat illnesses without a medical license? You scoundrel! You're disregarding human life! This is a crime! If you weren't Yuyan's husband, I would have you arrested by the military police right now!"
Hearing that Shen Lang didn't have a medical license, Jin Yulan's lungs almost exploded with anger. She unleashed a torrent of abuse at Shen Lang.
"Auntie, although my husband doesn't have a medical license, his medical skills are indeed very impressive. Please let him treat Uncle."
Wang Yuyan didn't expect her aunt's opposition to be so strong, but she continued to persuade.
Seeing that Jin Yulan was unmoved, Shen Lang turned to his uncle, Luo Dongyang, and said, "Uncle, say something."
Hearing Wang Yuyan's words, Luo Dongyang sighed and said, "Yuyan, I appreciate your good intentions, but since your aunt has already found Qin Yanluo, let Qin Yanluo treat me."
Luo Dongyang was a henpecked husband and never dared to oppose Jin Yulan's decisions, especially on such important matters.
Hearing Luo Dongyang's words, Wang Yuyan's face fell with disappointment.
She had known Shen Lang for a long time and believed that if he treated her uncle, he could cure his lung disease. However, if neither the patient nor his family agreed, there was nothing she could do.
"Yuyan, since Uncle and the others have made up their minds, let's not talk about it anymore."
Shen Lang held Wang Yuyan's hand and said gently.
Hearing this, Wang Yuyan could only nod in agreement.
"Uncle, Auntie, cousin, cousin, this is the first time you've returned to China in ten years. This time, I want to fulfill my duties as a host and entertain you well."
Wang Yuyan put aside her inner turmoil and said to her uncle's family, "The food here is very good. My grandfather often eats here. Feel free to order whatever you want."
"Hmph, cousin, this is just a small farmhouse restaurant. You're acting like it's some Michelin-starred hotel. Stop pretending to be rich."
Hearing Wang Yuyan's words, the girl with wavy hair sneered.
Her name was Luo Xiaobai, Wang Yuyan's cousin. However, she had always harbored hostility towards Wang Yuyan.
Whether it was beauty or intelligence, Wang Yuyan was far superior to Luo Xiaobai. Therefore, whenever the two stood together, Wang Yuyan was always the radiant one, and Luo Xiaobai would be overshadowed, with no one noticing her presence.
Over time, Luo Xiaobai became resentful and jealous of her cousin, Wang Yuyan. Every time they met, she would be confrontational and sarcastic.
"Yes, cousin, if you truly wanted to fulfill your duties as a host, you should have taken us to a five-star hotel, not a farmhouse restaurant."
After Luo Xiaobai finished speaking, her younger sister, Luo Xiaoqing, chimed in mockingly.
Speaking of which, Luo Xiaoqing suddenly looked at Wang Yuyan and smiled. "Cousin, when you got married to your husband, how much dowry did he give?"
"Dowry?"
Hearing Luo Xiaoqing's words, Wang Yuyan frowned and said, "He didn't give any dowry, and I don't need it."
"Hehehe, cousin, you really gave yourself away for free?"
After Wang Yuyan finished speaking, Luo Xiaoqing directly taunted her.
"Oh, according to you, I shouldn't have given myself away for free. Then how much dowry should I ask my husband for?"
Wang Yuyan said, smiling.
"Given our family background, according to custom, we should at least ask for 8,800."
Luo Xiaoqing looked at Shen Lang and sneered, "Not 8,800, but 88 million. Can you afford that?"
