Sun's face immediately fell. "Mother, how could you say such a thing? Even if the eldest son's family has severed ties with us, you can't keep badmouthing Qing'er behind her back. How will Qing'er face people if these words get out?"
Besides, if you don't believe me, the coachman from the Fan family just left. Go after him and ask him if what I said is true."
"This...this...this isn't right!" Old Mrs. Chen's vision went black, and she almost collapsed to the ground.
Old Chen grabbed her and stamped his foot in frustration, "Old woman, stop pretending to be weak! Hurry up and think about what to do next!"
"No, I don't believe it. I would rather die than believe that brat has the ability to practice medicine and cure diseases." Old Mrs. Chen shook her head in disbelief.

Madam Sun gave her a cold glance. "Mother, those words are really awful. No matter what, Qing'er is still a junior. If you keep throwing mud at her like this, you'll be ridiculed."
"She did something shameful, so why is she afraid of what people say?"
"Don't make things up without evidence. If Qing finds out, I'm afraid you'll be in big trouble. She definitely won't let you off the hook."
Old Mrs. Chen was displeased and scolded sharply, "Shut your stinking mouth! I'm not someone who can be easily intimidated. This is none of your business. Go and cook!"
"What a foul mouth! Doesn't she care about her mouth getting rotten?" Sun muttered under her breath, then turned and went into the kitchen.
Old Chen looked worried and sighed deeply, "Old woman, what are we going to do about tomorrow?"
"What to do, what to do? All you ever say is 'what to do'! If it weren't for me taking care of things, you'd all be strangled and starving to death," Old Mrs. Chen said angrily, wanting to slap him.
"Don't worry, as long as we keep Butcher Li in check, I'm sure that brat will come begging to me sooner or later."
"Sigh... I hope so!"
Old Man Chen was also feeling uncertain. That butcher Li was a beast. What if he couldn't keep him in check?
We'll be in real trouble then!
