"sister in law."
Seeing Ruan Zhao coming out, Wang Shufang quickly ran over and grabbed her and said, "Sister, are you free today? My sister-in-law needs your help with something."
Seeing her anxious expression, Ruan Zhao asked curiously, "Sister-in-law, what happened?"
Wang Shufang was about to answer when she saw Qin Zongwu passing by her with a dark face.
As he passed by her, he called out coldly, "Sister-in-law."
"Hey." Wang Shufang responded subconsciously, but then she realized that she was frozen by Qin Zongwu's cold air and shrank back. "Sister, what's wrong with your man?"
Ruan Zhao glanced at Qin Zongwu's back and said casually, "Ignore him.
Sister-in-law, you haven't told me what you want to talk to me about yet?"
Wang Shufang then continued, "Oh, yes.
Here's the thing, the son of a friend of mine suddenly got a strange disease. He became like a fool and forgot a lot of things.
He used to be a good young man, but now he loses his temper easily, has no appetite, stays in bed all day, and is almost as thin as a bamboo pole.
My friend took his son to the hospital, but they couldn't find anything wrong with him, so he suspected that he had been contaminated by something dirty.
When I heard that, I thought you might know something about this, so I mentioned it to her, and she asked me to come find you, hoping you could take a look at her son."
Ruan Zhao hesitated after hearing this, "Sister-in-law, can you trust this friend of yours?"
Wang Shufang immediately understood what she was worried about and offered reassurances. "Don't worry, I've known this friend of mine for over ten years. She's from our military region and works at the military hospital. She's a completely trustworthy person."
Military hospital?
A person's information subconsciously flashed through Ruan Zhao's mind.
It can't be such a coincidence, right?
"What's her son's name?"
"Oh, her son's name is Luo Yang, and he's a doctor at the military hospital."
Ruan Zhao: “…”
What a coincidence!
We have to give Wang Shufang face, but we can't ask her to see everyone who comes to see her.
So Ruan Zhao thought for a moment and said, "Sister-in-law, there is something I need to tell you in advance. I think this kind of thing requires money.
Even though he is your friend, there are still rules to follow..."
Before she could finish, Wang Shufang nodded immediately. "Don't worry, I understand. My friend is not short of money. If you can solve her son's problem, she will definitely thank you without you even saying anything."
Wang Shufang had said so, so Ruan Zhao didn't know what to say. "Okay, I'll take it."
As soon as Ruan Zhaoyi agreed, Wang Shufang took her away.
"Then let's go now. My friend's son is in a serious condition."
Ruan Zhao quickly grabbed her and said, "Sister-in-law, I'm going back to the house to get some things."
Wang Shufang then let her go, "Oh yes, then go quickly."
Ruan Zhao went back to the house, carried a cross-body bag and left with Wang Shufang.

in the ward
Geng Meihong held a bowl of chicken soup and handed it to Luo Yang, who was lying on the hospital bed. "Yangyang, have some chicken soup. Mom spent several hours simmering it."
Luo Yang, wearing a hospital gown, glanced at Geng Meihong when he heard her words, then said impatiently, "Mom, I don't want to drink!"
"That won't do, son. You're too thin now and need more nutrition.
Come on, be obedient, mom will feed you."
Geng Meihong said as she scooped a spoonful of chicken soup over, but Luo Yang knocked it over with a slap. "I said I don't want to drink it, Mom, please stop bothering me!"
When Ruan Zhao and Wang Shufang came over, they saw this scene.
Wang Shufang hurried in. "What's wrong? Meihong, are you okay?"
As he spoke, he looked at Luo Yang on the bed. "Yangyang, you can't do this to your mother. Your mother has been suffering from your illness for several days and she is so haggard!"
Luo Yang became even more annoyed when he saw a stranger coming. He simply lay down on the bed and buried his head in the quilt.
"Hey! You kid..."
When Geng Meihong heard Wang Shufang talking about Luo Yang, she quickly stopped her and said, "Shufang, stop talking about him. I'm fine.
He couldn't control himself because he was sick."
Wang Shufang sighed helplessly, then thought of Ruan Zhaolai and quickly whispered to Geng Meihong, "By the way, I brought the person I mentioned to you last time."
Geng Meihong's pupils immediately lit up when she heard this.
"Sister, come in quickly." After Wang Shufang finished speaking, she quickly pulled Ruan Zhao, who was standing at the door, in and closed the door of the ward.
"Meihong, this is the little fairy I told you about. Her name is Ruan Zhao, and she's also from our military family compound."
"Girl, this is my friend Geng Meihong, she is the director of the military hospital."
After seeing Ruan Zhao's appearance clearly, Geng Meihong's eyes were amazed for a moment.
But after he came to his senses, a hint of disappointment quickly flashed across his face.
The truth is that Ruan Zhao looks too young and so handsome. No matter how you look at it, he doesn't look like he has that kind of ability.
However, out of trust in Wang Shufang, Geng Meihong still politely greeted Ruan Zhao. "Hello, Comrade Ruan Zhao."
Ruan Zhao naturally saw what Geng Meihong was thinking, but she didn't care. "Hello, Director Geng, my sister-in-law has already told me about your son's condition."
When Luo Yang was mentioned, Geng Meihong no longer cared whether Ruan Zhao was really capable or not.
With the idea of giving it a try, she quickly told Ruan Zhao about Luo Yang's condition. "Comrade Ruan Zhao, I don't know what's wrong with my son. He suddenly forgot a lot of things and his personality changed.
He can't eat anything and is sometimes very irritable. The doctors can't find any disease in him. Do you think he has been contaminated by something dirty?
Ruan Zhao turned his head and glanced at Luo Yang who was hiding under the quilt.
I thought that this kid was lucky enough to be alive after being imprisoned by the snake demon for seven years!
However, although this kid is not a very evil person, he has done a lot of bad things, and his ending is also retribution.
Coming back to his senses, Ruan Zhao looked at Geng Meihong and said, "Director Geng, your son provoked someone he shouldn't have, and that's why he's being retaliated against."
Geng Meihong immediately became nervous when she heard this. "What is that? A ghost?"
Ruan Zhao shook his head, "No. It's a snake that has awakened its intelligence.
When he went to play in the mountains, he trampled on someone's cave and even captured their children and grilled them for meat, so now he is being retaliated against."
When Ruan Zhao mentioned snakes, Geng Meihong's eyes lit up in shock. "Yes, that's right. Yangyang dreams every night and talks in his sleep, saying there's a big snake trying to kill him. I thought he was possessed by an evil spirit."
Geng Meihong didn't even tell Wang Shufang about this.
She hadn't believed Ruan Zhao at first, but now that she'd hit the nail on the head, Geng Meihong suddenly felt that Ruan Zhao was quite capable. "Sister Ruan Zhao, can you take a look at some solutions to this problem?"
Ruan Zhao glanced at Geng Meihong's face and said directly, "It can be solved, but the fee is quite high."
Geng Meihong hadn't expected Ruan Zhao to be so direct, but her family wasn't short of money, so she didn't take it seriously. "I understand, Sister Ruan Zhao. As long as you can make my son better, we're willing to pay any amount."
Ruan Zhao heard her say this and reminded her again. "Director Geng, I don't like trouble, so I have to tell you in advance that your son's problem will cost 500 yuan.
If you're willing, I'll take care of it for him right now. If not, that's fine, just pretend I never came."
Although Geng Meihong's family wasn't short of money, she was still surprised when she heard it was 500 yuan. "So much!"
"Sister Ruan Zhao, look at this... can you ask for a little less?"
"No!" Ruan Zhao refused directly, with an expression of no mercy. "Director Geng, I never bargain here."
She didn't want to make things difficult for Geng Meihong, but Luo Yang really deserved it.
Luo Yang’s current situation is also inseparable from the Luo family’s indulgence towards him.
If we don't let them bleed a little now, I'm afraid they won't learn their lesson.
Geng Meihong's expression suddenly changed.
As the director of a military hospital, she had always been sought after and had never been rejected like this before.
But she was afraid of delaying Luo Yang's treatment, so she didn't dare to offend Ruan Zhao easily. She could only look at Wang Shufang, "Shufang, this..."
Wang Shufang also felt that five hundred yuan was a lot, but she was too embarrassed to ask Ruan Zhao for it.
After all, Ruan Zhao had greeted him before coming, and everything had to follow her rules.
Therefore, Wang Shufang could only persuade Geng Meihong, "Meihong, Sister Ruan Zhao is not an ordinary person. Since she has spoken up, it means that this matter can definitely be resolved.
You only have this one son in your family. If Yangyang doesn't get better, what will your family do in the future? Otherwise, you will..."
When Geng Meihong heard Wang Shufang say this, she knew there was no room for maneuver.
After hesitating for two seconds, she gritted her teeth and agreed with all her heart. "Okay, five hundred is five hundred. As long as you can cure Yangyang, I'll give you the money."
