Chapter 471 Huo Qinglin has a backup plan
"Here it comes." Huo Qinglin looked at the gorgeous carriage behind Qiu Yi and said lightly.
Qiu Yi immediately winked at the maidservant beside her. They understood and suddenly shouted, "Everyone, come and see! General Huo's eldest daughter is bullying someone!"
"And they even called on the Huo family to help! A group of people bullying a pregnant woman!"
"The General's Mansion is bullying us by taking advantage of their power. They don't take the lives of ordinary people like us seriously."
It was close to the capital and on the official road, so there was a lot of traffic. Now, a few people were shouting in loud voices. When they heard General Huo, and it was human nature to watch the excitement, people coming from the south and the north stopped and surrounded them.
The circle of people who came to watch the fun grew larger and larger, and among them were many prominent families in the capital.
After a while, I understood that Huo Qinglin and Song Shu's concubine were arguing with each other!
This caused a sensation in the entire capital more than ten years ago!
The eyes of those who knew the inside story lit up. Sometimes they felt that Song Shu, the concubine, was right. But sometimes they felt that so much time had passed, and Lord Song had finally had a child. As a divorced woman, Huo Qinglin should not have harmed an unborn child.
“Tell me, everyone, as a maidservant who comes with the dowry, what can I do if my master wants me to serve him?
And the mistress couldn't give birth to a son, wasn't it her own fault? Now I finally got pregnant with a son, and she's been divorced for over ten years. When I met her on the street, I offered to pay my respects, but she still wouldn't let me go.
Wuwu~ I only beg Miss Huo to show mercy and let a little concubine like me live. Don’t use the power of the General’s Mansion to bully a weak woman like me, and don’t call on my brothers to back you up and make things difficult for a helpless little woman like me..."
On one side was the sobbing, frail noblewoman, and on the other was Huo Qinglin, neatly dressed and with his back straight. The men watching were all accusing him one-sidedly: "I used to admire General Huo, but I never thought that his reputation would be ruined by his daughter!"
"She really didn't teach her daughter well enough. Even after being divorced, she still wants to destroy her ex-husband's family. She has a vicious mind. No wonder she was divorced!"
"Not only does he rely on the power of the General's Mansion to bully others, but he also calls on his brother to back him up. The Huo family is going to be ruined~"
Those who knew the inside story didn't quite believe it, but they didn't say anything. For a moment, everyone was helping Qiu Yi criticize Huo Qinglin.
"You said I called the Huo family brothers to come over and bully you? Where are they?" Huo Qinglin interrupted loudly.
There was a pause. Indeed, there were two women behind Huo Qinglin, not even a man, so where did the brother come from?
On Qiu Yi's side, at least he had a coachman and servants to protect him.
The scene was a little awkward for a moment.
Qiu Yi's personal maidservant immediately shouted, "Your brother is in that carriage at the back! Don't think we don't know."
"Really? Take a closer look. Whose carriage is that?" Huo Qinglin looked normal, with a smile on his lips, but his eyes were filled with coldness.
When Shen Qing heard this, he also looked curiously at the gorgeous carriage coming forward.
This definitely isn't the Huo family's carriage, but who could be coming?
Huo Qinglin obviously has a backup plan.
Qiu Yi was stunned, turned around and squinted to look over carefully, then took several steps back in fright.
How, how is this possible?
Not from the Huo family, but...
The next moment, an anxious figure emerged from the carriage, pushing through the crowd and rushing in. Upon seeing Huo Qinglin, he cursed him, "Huo Qinglin! You're such a haunting ghost!
I, Song Shu, am truly unlucky to marry you. I only beg you to spare my unborn child's life!"
After scolding him, he carefully supported Qiu Yi and asked about her well-being, "Are you okay? I rushed here as soon as I heard the news. I was afraid that if I was a step late, you and the child would have met with the murderous hands of this evil woman!"
Qiu Yi's face turned pale and blue, and he didn't speak for a long time.
Song Shu asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Are you scared by this vicious woman?"
Just as he was about to continue cursing, he heard Huo Qinglin's cold voice ask, "Sir Song, do you know who told you to come here?"
"Who else could it be? Of course it's Qiu Yi!" Song Shu blurted out.
"Lord Song is really forgetful. Can't you tell the difference between your own servants and outsiders?" Huo Qinglin continued to ask.
Song Shu was stunned, remembering that it was the doorman who informed him, but the person who came to deliver the message was not a servant of the Song Mansion. It was just that he thought that Qiu Yi and the child had been in trouble, so he could only ask someone to come and deliver the message.
"That's someone from my Huo family! And if I'm deliberately making things difficult for you, why would I notify you to come?
You two are very good. One of you said that I was using the power of the General's Mansion to make things difficult for her, and you also said that my father and brother came to help me bully her, a pregnant woman.
One of them came and directly convicted me without asking any questions about the right and wrong, saying that I wanted to harm the fetus in my womb.
But it's true. You said at the beginning that my father had committed a crime and I was the daughter of a criminal. It was normal for you to divorce me. The dowry of a divorced person cannot be taken back. But now the emperor has said that my father is not guilty. Should my dowry be returned to me?
By the way, you two are making such a fuss today. Are you going to accuse me of harming the descendants of the Song family again?
But I don't want to continue our past relationship with you, and I don't want to have anything to do with you anymore. I just want my dowry back. I also ask Sir Song to send my dowry back to the Huo family. I also ask Sir Song to be kind!" Huo Qinglin said one by one clearly.
The man in the crowd who had spoken up for Qiu Yi before was just as loud as he was now angry!
"I've really learned something new. How can a man use his wife's dowry?"
"This is clearly a setup to throw dirty water on the ex-wife so she can't return the dowry."
"I'm just confused. How could General Huo, with his fame and reputation, not discipline his children? It turns out someone is maliciously slandering him."
"I heard that Lord Song finally had a child. Really, he doesn't even know how to accumulate blessings for the child!"
"Hey, I just heard this woman holding her stomach and crying out in pain. Why didn't she cry out now that Lord Song is here? It's obvious that the couple must have put on a show!"
…
Qiu Yi was in a real dilemma now. If she said she had a stomachache, with Song Shu here, she would have to ask a doctor and a midwife for help. There would be so many people around, how could she hide it?
Not to mention the miscarriage, she had just been holding her belly and yelling for so long, how was it going to end now?
"Master, I feel dizzy~"
"It just so happens that I know how to take a pulse. Let me give it a try." Huo Bing walked out and volunteered.
Song Shu only felt that the young woman looked very familiar, but he was sure that he had never seen her before.
When Qiu Yi heard about the pulse check, she reacted fiercely, "No, you're in cahoots with her! You definitely have bad intentions!"
"It's just taking my pulse. I can't do anything bad. You don't even dare to take my pulse, but you say I have bad intentions. Are you feeling guilty?" Huo Bing said directly.
Qiu Yi changed her mind and decided that it was a good idea. No matter what she said later, she could bite back!
She pursed her lips and held out her wrist.
