Grandma Liu rubbed her eyes and said, "It really is your brother. That bastard still remembers us?"

Liu Datong returned, carrying a package in his arms, muttering, "Mother, I've come to take you and my little sister back. My wife has run off with someone!"

After Liu Datong finished speaking, he burst into tears.

Ruyan said angrily, "Hmph, if that woman hadn't run away, you probably would never have remembered me and Mother, right?"

Liu Datong said tearfully, "Ruyan, I know that woman was causing trouble for our family back then. It was because of her that you and Mother were taken to the Jin family. But no matter what, this is still an outsider's house. Staying here for too long is not good."

As they were talking, Liu, heavily pregnant, shoved Liu Datong aside: "I don't need your kindness. When my mother and I left, you didn't say a word. What, now that your tigress is gone, you want Ruyan to go back with your mother? Don't think I don't know what you're up to?"

"Stop saying all that. No matter what, I'm still your brother. Things have already turned out this way, what else can I say? Do you think Mom and Ruyan can stay in your house forever? Think clearly. Look at you, you're heavily pregnant now. Mom must be very uncomfortable staying in your house. Let Ruyan and Mom come back with me!"

Liang Shuyan walked up quickly, glanced at the man in front of her, and chuckled, "Since you're Beibei's uncle, then come in and have a seat!"

Liu Datong, however, said with a cold face, "No need, I'm taking my mother and sister back with me!"

Ruyan took two steps back: "Whether Mother goes back with you or not, I will not go back with you. You should have given up on that idea long ago!"

"Why don't you come back with me? This isn't your home!"

Liang Shuyan snorted coldly: "I say, in-law, look at what's happened, do you still want to go back with your son?"

Clearly, Old Mrs. Liu was conflicted. She was thinking about a problem: Ning Shi was gone, who would cook for her son? Wouldn't the child go hungry?

As a mother, Liang Shuyan understood the natural instinct to protect her child. She didn't blame the old lady, but what if the old lady went back and that woman came back? Wouldn't her life be even more difficult then?

"I... I think I should go back with Datong. How can we manage without anyone to cook at home?"

Upon hearing this, Ruyan's attitude hardened: "Mother, how can you forget how he sided with that woman to bully us back then? And now, you're still thinking about how he has no one to cook for him?"

"If you sincerely want your mother to go back, then please go back and get a certificate from the village head. Only then will I agree to let your mother go with you. Otherwise, if something happens to your mother when she goes back, and the government investigates, our Jin family will be held accountable. As for Ruyan, she doesn't want to go back, and there's nothing we can do about it!"

Liu Datong was furious and shouted at Liang Shuyan, "Who do you think you are, daring to stop my mother from coming back with me!"

When Liu saw Liu Datong attack Liang Shuyan, she stepped forward to try to pull him away, but Liu Datong suddenly threw her to the ground, landing her on a rock not far away, whereupon blood began to flow from her body.

Ruyan covered her mouth and yelled at Liu Datong, "You, how dare you push her? She's pregnant! Are you even human?"

The old lady of the Liu family was furious and slapped Liu Datong across the face: "You beast, she is your sister, how could you do such a thing?"

When Liang Shuyan saw that Liu was bleeding from her lower body, she felt something was wrong and immediately instructed Ruyan: "Quickly, Ruyan, go to the martial arts school and call your second brother. Have someone bring your sister home right away!"

Ruyan hurriedly ran towards the martial arts school.

Inside the martial arts school, Erniu was practicing martial arts, holding a knife in his hand, huffing and puffing, his whole body brimming with energy.

Ruyan tearfully recounted the whole story. Upon hearing it, Erniu immediately said, "Ruyan, don't cry. Your brother-in-law will take responsibility. Liu Datong is dreaming!"

Jin Erniu thought of his wife and hurriedly said, "Quick, grab your weapons and come with me!"

"Do you need my help?"

Deputy General Xiao shouted.

"No need. You stay at the martial arts school and take good care of it. Watch them practice. I'll be right back!"

Vice General Xiao pursed his lips: "A dignified museum owner can't even keep his own wife. Really, this woman looks beautiful even to an elf. He must be blind."

Seeing Liu Shi's pale face, Jin Erniu hurriedly grabbed her arm and said, "Wife, hang in there, I've sent Ruyan to fetch a doctor!"

Without saying a word, Jin Erniu kicked Liu Datong to the ground and grabbed his collar: "Are you even human? When you brought Ruyan and your mother-in-law here, why didn't you come and call them? Now you remember? What, do you want my mother-in-law to go back and be your maid?"

When the old lady of the Liu family saw her son being beaten, she rushed forward to stop the fight: "Erniu, stop it! No matter what, he is your brother-in-law. You can't treat him like this!"

"Alright, Erniu, don't make a fuss about this. I've already said that once I see him get the documents from Lizheng, I'll let your mother-in-law go back. As for Ruyan, she's already engaged to our Sanwang and is a member of our Jin family. She won't go with you!"

When Liu Datong realized he had caused trouble, he turned and ran away. The old lady of the Liu family was in a mess. Her daughter had been pushed down because of her, and she didn't know what would happen to her. What if she miscarried? How could she face her son-in-law and daughter then?

Liang Shuyan immediately noticed the old lady's worry and stepped forward to help her up, saying, "My dear in-law, please don't worry. Your second daughter-in-law is fine. Look at your two daughters, they are both well-behaved and filial. Even if you stay with us for the rest of your life, it's only right. Now that the martial arts school has been handed over to Erniu, if you feel it's inconvenient for you to stay with us, how about I separate Erniu from you and you live separately?"

"No, no, how can that be? I know my ugly daughter is so well taken care of by you, her mother-in-law. If she's separated from her family, who knows what will happen to her? Please don't say that. I'll listen to whatever you say. Whatever you say, I'll do!"

Ruyan summoned a doctor, who took Liu's pulse and said, "It's alright, I'll prescribe some medicine, she'll be fine after taking it!"

Liang Shuyan finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, doctor!"

In the classroom, Mr. Su entered and greeted, "Where is Dashan? There are many people here today, all here to listen to Dashan's lecture!"
