Yu Ruhai quickly denied it, "I definitely didn't mean that."
Seeing Yu Jiao's unquestionable attitude, the contract paper had to be torn up today. Yu Ruhai had to harden his heart and picked up the contract paper from the table. However, he couldn't bring himself to tear it up. With the contract paper, Meng Yujiao would be free from now on, and he would have no excuse to control her anymore.
Yu Jinyan stepped forward from the corner and whispered in Yu Ruhai's ear, "Grandfather, if you are worried about not having any restraint, why not let Second Uncle and Second Aunt recognize Meng Yujiao as your daughter? After all, she and Fifth Brother are in name only. If she becomes the daughter of our Yu family, no matter how famous she is for treating illnesses in the future, it will all be the responsibility of our Yu family."
After hearing this, Yu Ruhai calmed down, and a gleam of light flashed in his cloudy old eyes. He tore the deed paper into pieces with a "swish" sound, and said to Yu Jiao in a flattering smile, "Grandfather will listen to you, tear it up."
Yu Jiao pulled the torn deed paper from his hand and crumpled it into pieces. She also threw the pieces into the teacup. She looked away only when she saw the words were stained by water.
The loose flesh on Yu Ruhai's face trembled. He looked away, closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he looked amiable. Yu Jiao felt much better when she saw him like this. Only by destroying something she was reluctant to part with with her own hands could she make Yu Ruhai feel even worse.
"The deed has been destroyed, girl Meng, what else are you not satisfied with?" Yu Ruhai said in a low voice with a flattering smile.
Yu Jiao shook her head. "I am now a free man. There are some things I don't need to say. You should know that if the Yu family makes me uncomfortable staying here in the future, I can leave at any time."
Yu Jinyan's words made Yu Ruhai have other plans in mind. He smiled and responded with good temper, "Don't worry, grandpa will never wrong you again in the future."
Yu Jiao didn't comment, smiled faintly, looked at Jiang Qinghe, and said apologetically, "Doctor Jiang, I'm really sorry..."
As soon as she opened her mouth, Jiang Qinghe knew what she meant. He sighed and said, "It's okay. If Miss Meng changes her mind in the future, you can always come to me. In that case, I won't bother you any more."
Yu Jiao stood up and wanted to see Jiang Qinghe off. He Dongsheng also stood up and said goodbye, "I won't bother you any more. If you have time, Miss Meng, please come back another day and check the old man's pulse."
"Sure, I'll come to you when I'm free next time." Yu Jiao said with a smile.
The servants of the He family in the yard not only replaced all the jars and urns that had been smashed last time with new ones, but also cleaned up the Yu family's yard and made it spotless.
Yu Ruhai then escorted He Dongsheng out of the door. There were many villagers outside the yard watching the fun. Yu Ruhai wanted to save face in front of the villagers, so with a smile on his old face, he cordially escorted He Dongsheng to the carriage, deliberately acting as if he was familiar with him.
He Dongsheng hated him from the bottom of his heart. After getting on the carriage, he opened the curtain and said to Yu Jiao who was standing quietly at the gate, "Miss Meng, if I introduce friends to see you in the future, I hope you can keep an eye on them and see the patients in person. Don't let the quack doctor ruin people's lives again."
The smile on Yu Ruhai's face froze. He felt angry and annoyed. He couldn't help but curse He Dongsheng harshly, saying that he shouldn't humiliate him in front of the villagers like this.
Yu Jiao glanced at Yu Ruhai's face and smiled faintly.
Jiang Qinghe, who was already sitting in the carriage, heard what He Dongsheng said. He also wanted to raise Yu Jiao's face in front of the people of Qingyu Village. He also lifted the carriage curtain and said loudly to Yu Jiao, "Miss Meng is an excellent doctor. My Huichun Hall welcomes Miss Meng to come and see patients at any time."
Not long after, the group of people finally left, but the area outside the Yu family's door was not quiet. Curious villagers gathered around and asked about the He family and Jiang Qinghe.
Yu Jiao returned to the yard. Yu Zhou dealt with the villagers, saying things that were favorable to Yu Ruhai. Yu Ruhai hurried to Chen Rou's house to find her father, Chen Lizheng, and couldn't wait to add Yu Jiao's name to their family tree.
Although Yu Zhou tried her best to say that the He family's previous trouble was just a misunderstanding, and that Mr. He's illness had now recovered and the He family had come to apologize, the villagers were not blind. The Chen family delivered meals to the He family's servants and found out a lot of reasons why the He family had caused trouble at the Yu family some time ago.
Through the Chen family, the news that Yu Ruhai's prescription of medicine almost harmed the old man of the He family had spread to everyone in the village.
Moreover, from the attitude of Mr. He and Doctor Jiang of Huichuntang towards Meng Yujiao, the villagers also figured out something.
Yu Zhou was given a headache by the questions. She answered casually with a few words, quickly closed the gate and went back into the house.
Zhou Huai and his wife, who had witnessed how powerful Yu Jiao's medical skills were, had a clear understanding of the matter. They knew the most inside information. Yu Ruhai had told them not to tell anyone, so they had kept it in their hearts. But now the fact that Yu Jiao knew medical skills had been revealed in front of the villagers by Mr. He, so they naturally didn't have to hide it anymore.
Zhou Huai's wife, Zhou, said excitedly to the woman she was close to, "My husband almost died, but he was saved by Yu Jia Wulang's bride Meng Yujiao. She is a very good doctor!"
This sentence attracted the attention of many villagers who were standing nearby. They all came over to ask, "Does the fifth brother of the Yu family's wedding bride really have medical skills? How did she save your man? Didn't you say that it was old man Yu who cured him?"
"It wasn't Uncle Yu who cured her, it was Miss Meng. Uncle Yu didn't allow us to tell anyone at the time, so we had to keep it a secret."
Seeing that everyone was staring at her curiously, Zhou whispered with some pride, "My husband fainted in the middle of the night due to a convulsion. He couldn't breathe and almost died. He was taken to Yu's house, but Uncle Yu said he couldn't save him and told me to go to the town clinic to find a doctor. But my husband was in such a bad condition, how could I find a doctor in the town in time? I saw my husband twitching all over and foaming at the mouth and he was about to die..."
Zhou paused, and the woman who was being kept on suspense by her side hurriedly said, "Don't stop, what happened next?"
Zhou glanced at everyone, cleared her throat, and continued, "It was at that time that Miss Meng suddenly stood up and said that she could save my husband's life. She also recognized my husband's illness at a glance. I thought that I would try my best to take him to the town to find a doctor. My husband would not survive, so I simply begged Miss Meng to treat my husband."
Zhou didn't forget to brag, and said with a smile, "Thanks to my courage, I trusted Miss Meng. If it were you, you would definitely not let a little girl like her do this!"
After hearing this, the woman standing by also felt that what Zhou said was right. How old was Meng Yujiao? She was just a little girl who had not even reached the age of marriage. She was also a bride bought by the Yu family for a wedding. Who would believe her when she suddenly said that she knew medical skills?
"Tell us quickly how Yu Wulang's bride brought your husband back to life?" the woman, who was eager to hear the story, urged hurriedly.
Zhou continued, "Miss Meng took out a needle and pricked my husband's finger to let out some blood. My husband's breath came out and he woke up. It was amazing!"
