Lu Qingquan's family was unaware of Lu Mo's surgery, and even Lu Jianfeng and his wife from the third branch of the family were not entirely clear on the matter. They only knew that the old man had found a miracle doctor who was treating Lu Mo's leg, and that there was a high chance of recovery.

The couple were happy for Lu Mo and came to visit him several times. The old man told them not to tell anyone about it.

"Don't tell your second brother and sister-in-law, and definitely don't tell anyone else. We don't know if it will work out yet, so as to avoid gossip from outsiders."

“I know, we won’t tell anyone. Even if we fail this time, we’re not afraid. We’ll keep searching. There are many miracle doctors in the folk who can cure Lu Mo’s leg. We have to have confidence!” Lu Jianfeng comforted him.

The old man smiled with satisfaction. Although the second son's family was disappointing, the third son's family was good, and the children they raised were also good, unlike Lu Qingquan and Lu Qinghua.

"What have your second brother and the others been up to lately?" the old man couldn't help but ask.

Lu Jianfeng gave a wry smile, "I'm having a huge fight with the old lady of the Ye family."

******

After finishing her surgery, Ye Qingqing returned home exhausted, intending to rest for a while. But as soon as she got home, the old lady grabbed her and said, "Take me to that scoundrel's house on your bike!"

"What's wrong?"

These past few days, Ye Qingqing has been busy with Lu Mo's affairs and hasn't paid much attention to these other matters, so she doesn't know how the marriage is progressing.

"Go talk to that half-dead man about marriage. That good-for-nothing's mother won't give a dowry of ten thousand yuan. I'm going to have a good talk with her today!" the old lady cursed.

Having lived for over sixty years, she had never suffered a financial loss. That wretched woman Yue Hongxia was dreaming; if she got her hands on ten thousand yuan, she would marry him even if it cost her half her life!

Ye Qingqing immediately perked up, "Grandma, wait for me a minute, I want to eat a popsicle!"

"Hurry up!" the old lady said impatiently.

Ye Qingqing didn't dare to delay and finished the popsicle in a few bites. Feeling much better, she rode her bike with the old lady towards the military district compound. Ye Tong stayed at home, as Ye Hua had been behaving himself lately and didn't dare to do anything to Xiao Tong.

The military district was a bit far from the city, about 30 miles away. Ye Qingqing was sweating profusely from riding, but she wasn't tired at all. She was in high spirits because she was about to see Yue Hongxia's big show!

Yue Hongxia sat on the sofa watching TV with a dark expression. The TV show "Water Clouds and Clouds," which she used to enjoy, no longer held any appeal for her, and she was extremely irritable.

Lu Qingquan lay on the bed to rest, while Lu Qinghua also stayed in his room, not daring to come out and cause trouble.

That day, she dialed the wrong number, and Yue Hongxia gave her a severe scolding. Lu Qingquan also gave her a cold shoulder. Lu Qinghua felt extremely wronged. She hadn't done anything wrong; it was her second brother who had done something wrong, but now it was all her fault!

Lu Qinghua felt resentful. Lu Qingquan, whom she had once revered as a god, suddenly fell to the ground, and her admiration for him diminished considerably.

The thought that his second brother could actually like Ye Lan, a half-dead woman, and that he had even slept with a man, made Lu Qinghua feel suffocated and disgusted!

Dating a woman like Ye Lan is not as good as dating Ye Qingqing!

At least Ye Qingqing is healthy!

Although Ye Lan was Lu Qinghua's friend, being friends was fine, but being her sister-in-law was not. Lu Qinghua's feelings were very complicated, and even she herself did not understand them.

"A penniless daydreamer who wants to marry into my family? Humph... what a pipe dream!" Yue Hongxia became angrier and angrier, and couldn't help but curse out loud.

Even if Ye Lan offered herself up, she wouldn't agree, let alone ask her to give a dowry of 10,000 yuan!

"Knock knock knock..."

The door slammed shut, startling Yue Hongxia, who instinctively felt that something bad was about to happen.
