Qiao Wanwan: "......???"
She put down her chopsticks, chuckled, and said, "Mr. Huo, your sister is really interesting. In all my life, I've never had a fool come to me for medical treatment and ask me to sign a pledge."
Su Yimo almost exploded, "Who are you calling an idiot? How dare you humiliate me in public in front of so many elders of the Huo family?"
"Calling you stupid is too kind. I won't stoop to your level. You really think I'm afraid of you?" Qiao Wanwan raised an eyebrow. "Honestly, you and Ruan Tang are truly family. You're exactly the same, both stupid and wicked."
"You..." Su Yimo was so angry that her lungs felt like they were about to explode. "Fine, you actually have the nerve to mention my cousin? Speaking of which, uncles and elders, let me formally introduce you. It was she who sent my cousin Ruan Tang to prison, causing my aunt to suffer unbearable pain from missing her daughter!"
“Although my cousin was lost when she was young, she is still our family. How can we just stand by and watch our loved ones suffer? Not to mention that we are now handing Grandpa over to such a wicked woman!”
A middle-aged man spoke up, "Shi Qian, is what Momo said true? Finding a doctor for your grandfather is no problem, but this girl is too young. What medical skills could she possibly have? Aren't you playing with your grandfather's life?"
"And another thing, is this girl really the one who sent your aunt's daughter to jail? That's so heartless. Your aunt has been searching for her for over twenty years and finally found her daughter, but now she's locked up in jail. You don't even help your aunt get revenge, and you actually brought this girl home to give your grandfather to her for treatment?"
"You've always been a man of few desires, how could you be so foolish this time? Shi Qian, you wouldn't have been bewitched by this girl's beauty, would you?"
Huo Shiqian: "..."
"Uncle, what are you saying? This Miss Qiao is a married woman. How could I possibly have any improper thoughts about her!" Huo Shiqian stood up and solemnly clarified, "Everyone, please don't believe Momo's one-sided story. I would never harm Grandpa. Also, regarding Cousin Ruan Tang, I haven't mentioned it in the family group chat before because I wanted to save face for my aunt and uncle."
"We live in a society governed by the rule of law, where the law is absolutely fair and just. Ruan Tang is in jail for a reason. I think you all understand now. There's no need to keep pressing for details, right?"
Those present were all middle-aged people. Upon hearing this, they understood everything and remained silent.
After a moment, someone spoke up, "Shi Qian, we've all watched you grow up. We know what kind of person you are. Let's put your aunt's daughter's matter aside for now. The most important thing right now is your grandfather's health."
"Instead of assembling a medical team, you brought back such a young girl, saying you want her to treat your grandfather. Momo is right about one thing: what if she's not skilled enough and makes things worse for your grandfather? Who will bear the consequences?"
Su Jing stepped forward and said, "I believe in Wanwan's medical skills. She graduated from the Medical Department of Imperial University. I ran into her last time, and she saved me. Moreover, Shi Qian is not a fool. He must have his reasons for asking Wanwan to treat Dad."
“Su Jing, you’ve been a housewife for decades and haven’t seen much of the world. You have no right to speak here.”
Qiao Wanwan scoffed, "What era are we living in? It's ridiculous that anyone would still belittle housewives..."
"Young lady, do you know who you're talking to?" The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes, his tone full of warning. "This is the Huo family home. When members of the Huo family speak, it's not your place to interrupt."
"Just stating the facts." Qiao Wanwan's expression was cold. "Logically speaking, the larger and more powerful a family is, the more it should respect women. But in the eyes of you so-called Huo family members, housewives don't even have the right to speak. Isn't that ridiculous?"
"Qiao Wanwan, you're so angry because I touched a sore spot, didn't I?" Su Yimo looked at her disdainfully and chuckled, "Because you're also a housewife, and you married Zhan Jingting at a young age. To secure your position, you couldn't wait to have children, and now you're a mother of three. I despise women like you the most..."
"Su Yimo!" Huo Shiqian could not hide his anger. "You are truly unreasonable! Apologize to Madam Zhan immediately!"
"Brother, you're so siding with her, are you going to sign a pledge for her?" Su Yimo retorted without hesitation, "Cousin Ruan Tang has already been ruined by her, I won't let Grandpa be ruined by her too!"
"you......"
Qiao Wanwan interrupted the siblings' conversation at the right moment, "Miss Su simply thinks that my medical skills are not good enough and that I am not capable of curing your grandfather, right?"
"That's right, so many expert doctors couldn't cure my grandfather, they couldn't even find out what was wrong with him. If you can cure him, I'll take your surname!"
"I don't need someone as stupid and brainless as you to take my surname," Qiao Wanwan chuckled. "Miss Su, if you're going to question me, you should take a look in the mirror first."
Su Yimo looked at her suspiciously, "What do you mean?"
The next second, Su Jing exclaimed, "Ah! Momo, what happened to your face!"
Su Yimo was startled. She hurriedly took out her phone, turned on the camera, and screamed in despair, "Ah—!"
Everyone instinctively looked at her face, only to see that her face, which was covered in exquisite makeup, was covered in red pimples!
"Qiao Wanwan, you're the one who ruined me!" Su Yimo suddenly realized, "It was that stuff you sprayed on my face in your room last night that made me like this, right!"
