"The Zhou family is a wealthy and powerful family, and they have their own temper! Now look what's happened, Aunt Xie, in a fit of anger, has arranged a marriage for Ziyang! And it's with a young lady from the county!"

Ye Daquan ran over angrily: "It was clearly that guy surnamed Zhou who humiliated us, and you're blaming us?"

Jin Hua cried, "Who brought me this humiliation? It's all because you kept dragging your feet and first embarrassed the Zhou family."

Down in the corridor, Jin'er and Huan'er watched Jin Hua crying and snuggled closer to Ye Caiping.

Ye Caiping narrowed her eyes slightly. The Zhou family is really powerful; this is simply turning the world upside down!

Old Mrs. Ye stood at the doorway of the main room, pointing at her: "Are you even speaking human language? What do you mean by 'keep dragging it out'?"

"When a family wants to arrange a marriage, wouldn't the parents thoroughly investigate the groom's character? Ask your mother, ask your aunt, how long did they investigate when we wanted to arrange a marriage?"

"Your parents were worried about you, which is why they kept asking around. How did it become a matter of saving face for the Zhou family when it came to you?"

"If the Zhou family thinks it's shameful to inquire about the man's character, then such a family isn't good either. It's better not to marry him! Let alone become a concubine!"

Jin Hua wouldn't listen to a word she said. Even though she and Zi Yang could be together in the end, and Aunt Xie had agreed...

But the problem lies with our own family!

If it weren't for her family's hostility, she would have already gotten engaged to him...

Although I know Grandma is right, but...

She felt terrible...

Thinking about it, she rushed into her room and locked herself inside.

Du's vision went black, her body went limp, and she fainted.

Ye Daquan caught her in his arms: "Mother of the child..."

Grandma Ye, Ye Yong, and the others all gathered around.

"Take him back to his room first," said Grandma Ye.

Ye Daquan picked her up and carried her to the couch.

"I'll go fetch a doctor," Ye Caiping said, and ran out the door.

Before long, Dr. Zhao arrived. After taking Du's pulse, he said that the sudden shock had affected her heart. Although there was nothing seriously wrong, she should still take care of herself.

Then, he administered acupuncture to Madam Du and let her smell the snuff bottle, after which Madam Du slowly woke up.

"How are you feeling, honeymoon?" Ye Daquan asked anxiously.

"Mom, don't scare me!" Ye Yong and Hu Xiuxiu rushed to the bedside, both crying anxiously.

Mrs. Du pursed her lips: "It's nothing..."

Although her voice was weak, it relieved everyone.

Dr. Zhao said, "I'll leave the snuff bottle here. I'll prepare two doses of medicine for you later, and have someone come and pick them up in a bit."

After saying this, Dr. Zhao left.

Ye Xuan was furious: "Jin Hua may be a bit shrewish, but she used to be a reasonable and good girl. How did she suddenly become like this?"
