Chapter 271: Battle between Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law

Wen Ruyue questioned repeatedly.

Huo Yaoxing was very annoyed. He glanced at her with a cold look in his eyes and said in a low voice, "Shut up."

Wen Ruyue was stunned.

Her eyes were instantly filled with tears of grievance. Her lips trembled, as if she wanted to accuse someone, but under Huo Yaoxing's cold gaze, she dared not say a word.

Huo Yaoxing strode onto the carriage.

Wen Ruyue followed him feeling aggrieved.

Wen Yan and the others returned to the house quickly.

Wen Yan invited a doctor to stay in the house.

She helped Ying Zhilin sit down in the main hall and immediately asked a doctor to take his pulse.

Wouldn't it be a revelation if I took the pulse?!

Wen Yanruo knew that he had lied to her. Being angry was the least of her worries, but she was afraid that she would terminate the contract immediately.

Ying Zhilin stretched out his hand and said weakly, "Doctor, please take a closer look. There's nothing wrong with my body. I'm just too tired from taking exams for a few days. As long as my wife takes good care of me, I'll get better soon, right?"

The doctor observed Ying Zhilin's expression.

Ying Zhilin winked at him.

The doctor is also a very smart person.

I guess the couple had a fight and the husband was pretending to be sick to appease his wife.

Although he felt that he should know more about Lin's wife, he was willing to help.

She immediately followed Ying Zhilin's words and continued, "Madam, your husband is indeed fine. It's probably because of the excessive pressure from the provincial examination that he's feeling depressed. If you spend more time with him, chatting with him and telling him things that make him happy, he'll be back to normal soon."

Wen Yan breathed a sigh of relief when she learned that he was not seriously injured.

The company of family is the best treatment for depression.

It’s better to ask Zhihai and his sister to spend more time with him.

At this time, the other students also came back one after another.

When they saw Wen Yan, they bowed and saluted.

Wen Yan was so frightened that she jumped behind Ying Zhilin and said, "Zhilin, did your classmate get stupid on the test?"

Ying Zhilin's mind was filled with the tone of Wen Yan's voice when she called his name.

It's soft and sweet, and even the ending sound of the splitting legs in shock is adorable.

Ying Zhilin protected Wen Yan and glared at them: "What are you doing? You scared my wife."

The others quickly explained, "No, we wanted to thank my sister-in-law. Thanks to the pills and sachets she prepared, we didn't suffer much during the exam."

There are pills for replenishing qi and relieving summer heat.

The sachet is used to repel mosquitoes and insects.

These all played an important role in the examination room.

Ying Zhilin felt as if he was the one being praised. He snorted proudly, "Now you know how amazing my wife is!"

Others immediately offered flattery.

Wen Yan felt so uncomfortable that he felt uncomfortable all over.

She made up an excuse and left the house.

At this time.

Huo Yaoxing's carriage also returned to the Marquis of Jinping's Mansion.

Marquis Jinping and his wife were already waiting at the gate.

Huo Yaoxing jumped out of the carriage, and the Marquis's wife immediately came to meet him, asking with concern, "My son, how did you perform? Did you win the first prize?"

Huo Yaoxing's expression grew darker: "Let's talk about it when we get back."

The Marquis's wife's heart skipped a beat, and she had a bad feeling.

soon.

The family of four arrived at the main hall.

Marquis Jinping said, "Yao Xing, tell me, what exactly happened during the exam?"

Huo Yaoxing's glare immediately swung towards Wen Ruyue: "Ask her, it's all her fault."

Wen Ruyue was at a loss: "Husband, what did I do wrong? I haven't left the house these past few days. When did I cause you any trouble?"

“Not long after I entered the examination room, I started to have dull pain in my abdomen, which lasted for a day and a night.

Before entering the examination room, I only drank the soup you brought me."

"You suspect I added something to the soup?" Wen Ruyue cried out in injustice, "Husband, we are one. I only wish you the best. How could I possibly harm you?"

"But I did drink your soup and that's when I started having stomachaches. How do you explain that?"

Wen Ruyue just found it unbelievable.

Brother Yaoxing didn't perform well himself, but he blamed it on her?

She was about to say something when a figure flashed outside the door.

Accompanied by a sweet laugh, two slim figures walked in from outside the door.

It turned out to be Jing Mingmei and Jiang Rouer.

After Jiang Rouer entered the room, she looked at Jin Pinghou with her charming eyes. After a passionate embrace, she looked away and looked at Huo Yaoxing.

Huo Yaoxing looked away in disgust.

Jing Mingmei smiled and said, "I heard that the eldest son has returned from the Imperial Examination Hall. His knowledge is well known throughout the capital. You are the only one who can win the title of the top scholar this time. I came here to celebrate!"

After Jing Mingmei finished speaking, she raised her hand and waved without caring whether the people in the room welcomed her or not.

Her maid Dujuan came in with a tray with six big ingots on it.

"Six large ingots represent good luck. This is a token of my love, I hope you won't despise it, young master."

For a family like theirs, how could they just give money as a gift of congratulations?

Could it be that she is sending away a poor man?

Jing Mingmei heard from the servants that Huo Yaoxing returned home with a gloomy face.

She couldn't sit still anymore and ran over excitedly to eat the watermelon.

"I just heard something about soup and stomachache outside the door. Madam, why did you do this? What good will it do you if the eldest son fails the exam?"

"I said I didn't do that!" Wen Ruyue was so angry that she glared at Jing Mingmei fiercely.

How could she, a lowly concubine, give orders to a young mistress at home?!

Jing Mingmei seemed unaware of Wen Ruyue's hatred, and turned her attention to Huo Yaoxing, saying in a reproachful tone, "Master, the young lady said she didn't do it, why are you wrongly accusing her?

It's not that you performed poorly and were too embarrassed to admit it, so you deliberately put the blame on your wife!

Tsk tsk tsk, this is not good, this is irresponsible and cowardly behavior!"

Huo Yaoxing subconsciously said, "Impossible! At home, even a sip of water has to be screened by the imperial physician. I only drank her soup before entering the examination room.

If not her, who else could it be? "

Wen Ruyue said anxiously, "I had a hard time getting my hands on that nourishing medicinal recipe. It's great for replenishing Qi and benefiting the body, so there's no way it's a problem."

The young couple soon started arguing.

How could the Marquis' wife bear to see her son being scolded by a woman, with Jing Mingmei trying to sow discord between them?

She rushed forward and slapped Wen Ruyue in the face.

The Marquis's wife slapped Wen Ruyue with all her strength, causing her ears to buzz.

Wen Ruyue had lived two lives and was not one to suffer a loss. She immediately shouted, "I'm going to fight you!" and pounced on the Marquis's wife.

The Marquis' wife did not expect Wen Ruyue to resist. She was stunned for a moment and then two bloody marks were scratched on her face.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law started fighting each other immediately.

Jing Mingmei sat aside and watched the show with interest.

If the timing was right, she would definitely be cheering them on, telling them to be the champions and not lose!

Huo Yaoxing was stunned.

Marquis Jinping only felt his head buzzing, as if something had exploded.

He slapped the table and shouted, "Stop!"

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were so scared that they stopped fighting, but they kept looking at each other with knives.

The Marquis of Jinping glared at them, and only then did the two of them feel more at ease.

Marquis Jinping called the housekeeper and said, "Go find the imperial physician to verify the medicinal recipe."

Wen Ruyue raised her hand to wipe away two tubes of blood from her nose and said loudly, "Let's test it. There is absolutely no problem with my prescription."

Wen Ruyue was too confident.

Instead, it made everyone wonder if Huo Yaoxing was the one who was wrong!
