Early in the morning, Yu Jinshu, Yu Jinyan and the others came back. After entering the room, Yu Jinshu went straight to the east room, cursing and wanting to settle the score with Yu Jiao.

Song was cooking in the kitchen. Yu Mengshan and Yu Qiaoshan went to the bamboo forest in the back mountain to cut bamboo. Yu Qizhe, who was reading in the inner room, came out. Hearing Yu Jinshu's dirty words, he frowned and said coldly, "What's so bad about you going to trouble her as soon as you get home?"

Yu Jinshu ignored Yu Qizhe and walked to the side room in two or three steps. He pushed the door open rudely. Seeing that there was no one in the room, he looked at Yu Qizhe and asked unhappily, "Where is Meng Yujiao?"

Yu Qizhe glanced at him coldly, turned around and went back to his room, ignoring Yu Jinshu's question.

Yu Jinshu was so angry that he kicked the stool in the room and knocked it over. Yu Jinyan pulled him out of the east room.

The kitchen was next to the east room. When Song heard the noise, she quickly poked her head out of the kitchen and asked, "Second brother, fourth brother, why are you back?"

Yu Jinshu asked rudely, "Where is Meng Yujiao?"

Seeing his angry face, Song said in a gentle voice, "Someone came to see a doctor at midnight yesterday, and Miss Meng has not returned yet."

Zhao was sewing clothes in the west room. When she heard her son's voice, she came out happily with a smile on her face, "It's not the holiday yet, why are you back?"

Yu Jinshu said with an unpleasant expression, "Meng Yujiao has caused the three of us to be unable to take the provincial examination this year."

"What?" Zhao shouted loudly upon hearing this, "I can't take the provincial examination? Oh my God, Dad! Mom!" Zhao shouted loudly at Yu Ruhai and the other person in the room like a wolf howling.

Yu Zhou had already walked out quickly and gave Zhao a reproachful look, "Why are you howling so early in the morning?"

Zhao said hurriedly, "Mother, my second brother said that they can't take the provincial examination..."

Yu Ruhai had just come out of the house. After hearing this, he looked at Yu Jinshu with a serious expression, "Why can't I take the provincial examination?"

Yu Jinshu said gloomily, "The township tribute will be taken in less than 20 days. In recent days, classmates in the county school have been looking for prestigious teachers to write letters of recommendation. My fourth brother and I have already contacted Mr. Zhang from the county school and agreed with him on the recommendation."

He changed the subject and gritted his teeth, "But yesterday, Master Zhang suddenly accused my fourth brother and I of bad conduct and refused to write a letter of recommendation for us. We went to find other teachers in the county school, all of whom had the reputation to recommend talents for the exam, but they all declined and talked about other things. No one was willing to write a letter, and Zhizhou was the same."

"How could this happen? Could it be because of the writing fee?" Yu Ruhai asked with a frown.

Yu Jinshu shook his head and said angrily, "Mu Nianjiu helped to inquire about it, and with the help of his family, a teacher he was familiar with quietly told him the reason."

"It's all the fault of that bitch Meng Yujiao!" Yu Jinshu said with resentment, "She had been treating a wealthy family named Zhang, and she offended the Zhang family. Although the Zhang family is just a merchant, they often donate money to the county school and have made a lot of efforts to renovate the academy. And Master Zhang is from the same clan as them, and has a deep friendship with other masters. He passed on Master Zhang's idea to cross the three of us off the list of recommendations for the county school this time."

When Zhao heard this, she screamed, "Where's that little bitch Meng Yujiao? She's trying to ruin my son's future. I...I'll beat her to death!"

Having said that, Zhao took off her shoes and went to find Yu Jiao to settle the score with great momentum.

Song argued in a low voice, "The matter has not been figured out yet. Maybe it has nothing to do with Meng girl. Third sister-in-law, calm down first..."

Before she finished speaking, Yu Ruhai asked in a deep voice, "Where is Meng Yujiao?"
