Amidst the clamor of voices, Hongyu, looking astonished, grabbed the two pieces of cloth from her arm, frowned at Madam Jia, and asked in bewilderment, "Mother, why are you doing this? What have I done wrong? Even if Brother Yu is down on his luck now, he will surely be able to..."
"Shut up!" Madam Jia shouted sharply, then sneered, "Ha! I only wish for my son Liu Yu to live the life of an ordinary person, to marry and have children, and to have a happy family. We don't care about fame or fortune! Consort Yu is someone who plans great things, and she must not associate with us!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yu became even more terrified, fearing that Madam Jia would also sever ties with her.
As expected, Madam Jia grabbed Liu Yu's sleeve again.
Liu Yu struggled fiercely. He knew that his mother wanted him to break off his friendship with Chen Yu, but he refused and covered his sleeves with his hands.
No matter where Madam Jia cut, he would protect her with his hand.

Liu Yu was also heartbroken. Together with Yanran, they helped Madam Jia up, but Madam Jia still cried out to Chen Yu, "Please, Madam, let us go..."
"Who is making such a racket here?"
At this moment, Bai Yejing arrived with his men. Upon seeing that it was Chen Yu, he immediately ordered his men to surround the scene and disperse the onlookers.
He walked to Chen Yu's side and asked in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, has someone dared to make things difficult for you? Should we send them to the yamen?"
"I kindly treated patients, but I was bullied and they were all sent to jail!"
