"Mother!"
Yun Jinhe looked at Zhao Guihua with indignation, a surge of anger rising within him. "Regarding my matters with Miss Murong, please do not interfere anymore. The hardships Miss Murong and I endured, from Bocai Academy to the Imperial College, are unimaginable. If you cannot understand or comfort her, why must you be so unpleasant?"
"I am no longer a child. I can discern right from wrong. Therefore..."
"Jinhe, you are insolent!~"
Before Yun Jinhe could finish, Zhao Guihua roared, "How can you speak to your mother like this? What do you mean by 'don't interfere'? I am your mother. Do you have any idea how much effort and sweat your family put in to support your studies?"
"Truly, you've read books until your brain has turned to mush. If you truly understand right from wrong, then stay away from that little vixen. Don't let her cling to you all day!~"
Yun Jinhe: "..."
Mother, as you get older, why do you become more unreasonable?
Upon hearing this, Madam Gu frowned. "Guihua, you've come back today with the intention of upsetting me, haven't you? I've already told you, if you dare to make things difficult for Miss Murong again, don't blame me for turning my back on you. You hear with one ear and let it out the other, not even taking my words seriously, are you?"
Zhao Guihua: "..."
Why is Mother always targeting her? Isn't she doing this for Jinhe's future?
If Bu Yi hadn't written to her, she wouldn't have known that Jinhe had gotten into a fight at the Imperial College because of Murong Qing... httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
Being suspended for a month, what a disgrace.
Her reputation was completely ruined.
"What are you all arguing about?" Old Man Yun glared at Zhao Guihua and nudged Da Man. "Go manage your wife. She's always thinking about useless things, purely out of idleness..."
Yun Da Man was also furious. He stepped forward, grabbed Zhao Guihua's hand, and said, "Go into the house. You're an embarrassment!~"
"No, Yun Da Man, what did you just say about me?"
Zhao Guihua's eyes widened, her face flushing with anger. "I'm an embarrassment to you? Haven't you seen how well Yun Gui Fang does without me? Do you not know how much money I earn for the family each month? And now you have the nerve to call me an embarrassment. What, are you implying that once you become a county magistrate, you'll divorce me?"
Yun Da Man: "..."
If you continue to be unreasonable, I won't indulge you any further.
"Do you think Yun Gui Fang can't manage without you?"
Yun Da Man narrowed his eyes and sneered, "Guihua, let me tell you, without you, Yun Gui Fang's customers and income will not only not decrease, but will only get better and bigger. The world can go on without anyone, so don't think too highly of yourself..."
"Furthermore, if it weren't for my sister earning money to open the shop and providing you with a platform to be the shopkeeper, what would you be now? Just a village woman, what's there to be proud of?"
In fact, these words had been bottled up in Yun Da Man's heart for a long time. Today, using this as an excuse, he decided to pour them all out...
During his time at Yun Gui Fang, Yun Da Man was constantly ordered around by Zhao Guihua, working from dawn till dusk.
He did all the dirty, tiring, and heavy work, which was even more exhausting than farming at home.
But to appease Zhao Guihua's emotions, he never complained, swallowing all his hardships...
After all, he had to give the shopkeeper some face, especially since they were husband and wife.
"I've tolerated you for a long time, don't push your luck!~" Yun Da Man yanked Zhao Guihua forcefully, his eyes red with anger. "When my sister returns from the capital, I'll have her kick you out of Yun Gui Fang. Then we'll see if you're still so arrogant..."
Because of Murong Qing's affairs, Xiao Xi Tian had also criticized Zhao Guihua more than once, but this woman simply refused to change.
After hearing the scolding, Zhao Guihua stumbled, feeling as if her internal organs were about to explode. A hint of sweetness welled up in her throat, and to everyone's astonishment, she spat out a mouthful of blood...
This scene was unexpected and sudden. Yun Da Man instantly panicked.
"Gui... Guihua, what's wrong with you?" Yun Da Man quickly supported her, his internal complaints and dissatisfaction disappearing.
Madam Gu and Old Man Yun also hurried forward, calling for Si Man and the others to help Zhao Guihua to the inner room...
This person's temper is truly too strong, to the point of spitting blood from anger.
It seems that Zhao Guihua's grievances and frustrations are greater than any of theirs.
"Jinhe, go to the county town immediately and find a doctor to examine your mother..." Yun Da Man instructed.
Yun Jinhe did not dare to delay, and rushed to the county town with the horse carriage.
Niu Caixia brewed a bowl of red date porridge and offered it to Zhao Guihua.
Red dates have the effect of tonifying qi and calming the spirit, and drinking them can make the stomach feel better...
"I... I'm fine, Da Man, help me up, cough cough!~" Zhao Guihua reached out for Yun Da Man, trying to get up from the kang.
Yun Da Man stomped his foot. "Oh, just lie down obediently. Will life stop if you're not here?"
Unexpectedly, Zhao Guihua tried several times but couldn't get up. Her body was limp and without any strength...
"What... what's happening to me, sob sob!~" Zhao Guihua cried out in fear, looking at Yun Da Man with tearful eyes. "Da Man, I haven't become paralyzed, have I? Then... what will I do for the rest of my life? Sob sob..."
Da Man already disliked her. If she truly became paralyzed, Da Man would definitely kick her out and marry a young and beautiful wife.
Yun Da Man frowned. "What nonsense are you talking about? Have you ever seen anyone become disabled for no reason? Wait for the doctor to come and see what he says. Don't worry. Also, let Manager Liu take care of the restaurant. You should rest at home during this time and don't worry about Yun Gui Fang's affairs..."
Upon hearing this, Old Man Yun exchanged a look with Madam Gu, and the elderly couple sighed and walked out.
Madam Gu felt that Zhao Guihua's sudden vomiting of blood had little to do with her temper. She probably had some illness long ago, but it hadn't been this severe...
Meanwhile, in a guest room near the corner.
Murong Tao Tao, holding a comic book, sat cross-legged at the kang table, engrossed in reading.
Hearing the commotion outside, he raised his eyebrows and asked Eunuch Ruan, "What's wrong with the Yun family?"
Why are they shouting so loudly?
Eunuch Ruan craned his neck to look outside. "It seems their daughter-in-law vomited blood..."
"Vomited blood?"
Murong Tao Tao was momentarily surprised and put down his comic book.
