181 Getting Back Justice

"There is no need for this, Magistrate. It is a blessing for the people of this city that you can judge the case fairly. I only hope that you will remember today's matter and not go to the victim's side to apologize every time after the matter is over."

After Old Master Du finished speaking, he turned around and left with his wife. This time, the county magistrate didn't have the face to chase after them.

Fortunately, the crowd had already dispersed by the time the case was closed, so there weren't many people who saw this scene. Even so, Magistrate Liu's face was still as red as a pig's liver, and he almost crushed his teeth.

Mo Ruyue also took the babies out. She deliberately waited for the crowd to disperse before leaving to prevent people from blocking the entrance of the government office again and telling her some nonsense. 

Uncle Liu had already gone to the carriage store to get the carriage. Later, he would take the babies home first, and Mo Ruyue would go directly to Huichun Hall to give medical services today.

She was waiting for the imperial carriage not far from the entrance of the government office with her babies when she saw the Du couple walking over.

"Lady Qin, I don't know if I can give you the honor to come to the teahouse for a chat?"

The one who spoke was Mrs. Du. She had barely spoken in court just now, but now, in front of Mo Ruyue, she took the initiative to speak.

"Mrs. Du, I'll send the babies home first, then I'll go back to my clinic. If you have anything to say, you can say it here."

It was not that Mo Ruyue was cold and did not give people face, especially when the other party was Du Zhongheng's parents, but she had more important things to do now.

There was always a first come, first served basis for everything. This was a matter of principle.

Old Master Du frowned and seemed to want to say something, but Mrs. Du gently supported him with her arm and closed his mouth. Obviously, Mrs. Du's words were more effective in the Du family.

"Lady Qin, we husband and wife don't have any malicious intentions and won't take up too much of your time. After you send the babies home, it'll be good if you can spare some time before you go for a consultation."

Mrs. Du thought that Mo Ruyue was wary of them, so she patiently explained.

With her status, it was already very rare for her to speak to a commoner in such a friendly manner.

Mo Ruyue lowered her head and looked at the babies around her. In the end, she still nodded slightly. Alright, I'll have to trouble the two of you to wait in the teahouse. I'll be there in a bit.

Mr. And Mrs. Du then went to the teahouse hand in hand, and Uncle Liu happened to drive the carriage over.

"Lady Qin, you really don't want to go back with us?"

He asked Mo Ruyue after he helped to carry Si Bao and Tang Tang into the car.

"It's fine. Uncle Liu, please send them home safely,"

Mo Ruyue shook his head and then said to the babies, Mr. Du will be suspended for a day because of the court hearing today. You guys should stay at home and revise your homework. Don't slack off because of this.

"Mother, we understand."

Er Bao took the initiative to nod and express his attitude. The other babies also nodded. In fact, even if Mo Ruyue did not remind them, according to their self-discipline habits, they would not delay serious business just because they wanted to play.
