Yu Ruhai didn't care about the banknotes that were rubbed into a mess by her. After hearing what Yu Jiao said, he was really panicked. With her character, she could indeed provide medical treatment without asking for payment. He immediately stopped and persuaded her, "How can I not charge for medical treatment? Your uncle and aunt have no sense of propriety. I will reprimand them right now. Don't be angry, little girl Meng."
Yu Hanshan was so angry that he was not willing to give up. Before he could say anything more, Yu Ruhai pretended to be angry, raised his hand and slapped Yu Hanshan on the back, scolding, "You bastard, how dare you ask for money from a junior! Go back to your room now."
Yu Hanshan looked aggrieved as he failed to gain any advantage. Yu Zhou gave Zhao a look and she had no choice but to push Yu Hanshan back to the east room.
"Okay, okay, if your uncle and aunt behave themselves again, I will beat them myself. Girl Meng, don't take your anger out on the banknotes anymore." Yu Ruhai acted like an elder and coaxed her in a gentle voice.
Yu Jiao didn't give him a good look, and warned him coldly, "From now on, I have a peaceful life, and everyone has a peaceful life. If anyone disturbs my peace, I will make you suffer together."
These words were indeed arrogant, but Yu Ruhai only smiled dryly, not daring to say a word, for fear of really angering Yu Jiao. After all, she could tear up the fifty-tael silver note without blinking an eye. Her temper was too fierce and it was impossible to control her.
The eldest wife Zhang had been watching from the sidelines in her room. Seeing that Yu Zhou had gone back to the room with a displeased look on her face, and that the Zhao couple had not gained any benefits, she wanted to applaud Yu Jiao and whispered to Yu Qiaoshan with a smile,
"It's really hard to tell who's better between the old woman and the third wife. When Master He made such a big fuss, the villagers knew what was going on. No one has come to see our father these days. From now on, our Yu family will have to rely on Meng Yujiao, but they still can't figure it out! They're using tricks again to provoke her! They really think that girl is as easy to bully as us, and they deserve to be humiliated!"
Although Yu Qiaoshan also disliked the behavior of Yu Zhou and the couple of the third room, they were a family after all. Seeing that Zhang was obviously gloating over others' misfortunes, he said to Zhang disapprovingly, "You should say less. After all, she is our mother. A harmonious family will bring prosperity to everything."
Zhang snorted, "You are just a fool. You think they are your own mother and brothers, but the third brother and the others don't think so. After all, they are trying to take advantage of us all day long. If I had the ability of Meng girl, I would also stand up straight and make a good fuss!"
"Just calm down!" Yu Qiaoshan said, "My father just sent Zhizhou to the county school, don't make trouble."
Zhang curled her lips and said, "If it weren't for the fact that Miss Meng earned a lot of money for the family, the old man would not have been willing to let Zhizhou go to the county school. I would not have accepted his favor. If I had to accept it, it would have been because of Miss Meng's kindness."
Yu Hanshan, who was dragged into the room by Zhao, became more and more angry. His face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he gritted his teeth in anger. Zhao glanced in the direction of the east room and said hatefully, "Let her be arrogant. She will be in trouble in the future."
Yu Hanshan became more and more angry. He slapped the table, stood up suddenly, and walked out with his neck stiffened.
Yu Ruhai had just entered the room and saw his cowardly appearance. He scolded him in a deep voice, "What are you doing, you useless guy?"
"Dad, don't stop me!" Yu Hanshan rolled up his sleeves and said angrily, "I have to teach that bitch a lesson!"
Yu Ruhai angrily picked up the broom behind the door and hit Yu Hanshan with it. His beard trembled as he angrily cursed, "You brainless idiot, you are looking for trouble! You really pushed her to the limit. Will you treat patients from now on?"
Yu Zhou and Zhao rushed over to stop him and snatched the broom from Yu Ruhai's hand. Zhao said with a feeling of grievance, "Dad, why did you hit the third child? It was really because that little bitch was too unreasonable!"
Yu Ruhai glared at Zhao angrily, "Did you give the third son a bad idea to ask Meng Yujiao for money? What a fool! If you had her ability, you could also coax the masters of those wealthy families to give our Yu family medical fees and plaques, and you can control her as you like! Even if she is a bad person, she can still earn money for the family. Can you do that?"
Yu Zhou helped Yu Ruhai sit down and said gently, "Don't get angry and make yourself sick. I feel at ease because the money is in the hands of a little girl like her. The third brother and his wife also discussed with me before asking for the money."
After hearing this, Yu Ruhai didn't treat her well and said sullenly, "I told you a long time ago that the girl is smart and hard to control. Why are you following the third brother and his wife and doing something stupid?"
Yu Zhou was blamed, and a trace of grievance appeared on her face. She said, "I thought of asking the third son to come forward because I saw that the master didn't get any money from her. It's a legitimate reason for them to ask for some capital to start a business. I didn't expect that the girl was so stingy that she was unwilling to give out any money."
Yu Ruhai's expression softened when he heard her say that. He glanced at Yu Hanshan and Zhao and warned them, "Don't mess with that girl in the future. You all heard what she said just now. My second and fourth brothers are counting on her for the money they need to pass the imperial examinations. If you really piss her off, you won't get a penny. Think carefully about it!"
Yu Hanshan and Zhao were scolded so much that their faces drooped. Zhao was dissatisfied and whispered angrily, "Are we going to let that bitch do whatever she wants at home from now on?"
Yu Ruhai had just picked up the needle, and after hearing this, he wanted to throw it in Zhao's face, "Do you have a pig's brain? Didn't you take my words to heart? If you keep calling me a bitch, I'll take care of you first!"
Zhao shrank back and hid behind Yu Hanshan, but she didn't think she had said anything wrong.
"Do you think everyone likes to ride on others and pee and shit on them like you do?" Yu Ruhai's words were very unpleasant to the ear. He was not blind or deaf, so he didn't know what Zhao had done at home over the years. It was just because she favored the youngest son Yu Hanshan, and Zhao had given birth to two good grandsons, so she pretended to be ignorant and always protected the third wife.
"If you don't provoke her, she won't bother to pay attention to you." Yu Ruhai said sternly, "Put away your evil thoughts and stop stirring up trouble for me. My second and fourth brothers are about to take the provincial examinations. If they pass, and you, the mother of a juren, have a bad reputation, it will bring shame to them and affect their future!"
These words made Zhao give up completely. She attached great importance to the future of her two sons and dared not affect them in the slightest.
In the east room, Yu Qizhe's face was pale, his smooth forehead was covered with sweat, his handsome face showed pain, his abdomen was aching, and his lungs felt like they were tied in knots.
Yu Qizhe endured the pain and opened the door. Song went to the kitchen to cook, and Yu Mengshan was soaking wheat seeds in water. Neither of them was in the main room.
