Chapter 120
"Madam Yao, we have come here today specifically to visit Qingyin. My son did indeed wrong Qingyin before, and we accept whatever the Luo family says about us."
However, my Song family has done nothing wrong to the Yao family, and there is no conflict between Yan Zhou and Young Master Yao. You have no need to rush to accuse us, and we don't acknowledge it anyway.”
As Liu Ruyan listened to Xu Shiyi's sarcastic remarks, a hint of displeasure flashed across her face.
It's understandable that the Luo family blames them, but it's truly ridiculous that the Yao family comes to criticize and insult them.
Xu Shiyi's expression changed. "What kind of attitude is this? It's obvious that you're trying to take advantage of Qingyin again after the divorce."
You deliberately sabotaged my son's meeting with Qingyin, using such despicable methods, and you still won't admit it?
“Madam Yao, the Dong family has invited us to their Peach Blossom Banquet. Is there anything wrong with us going?” Song Yanzhou countered.
Liu Ruyan also spoke up: "If Qingyin is already engaged to your family, it would indeed be inappropriate for us to come here, but Qingyin is not engaged to you."
"A beautiful and virtuous woman is the object of a gentleman's affections. Even if my son has such thoughts, it is none of your business."
“Mrs. Luo, you heard it all! They’re planning this!” Xu Shiyi said.
Yan Qingyu looked at Liu Ruyan and said with a stern face, "My Qingyin is fine. Please leave."
Xu Shiyi then smiled, "Did you hear that? The Luo family doesn't welcome you. Leave now!"
Seeing that Xu Shiyi's words were too outrageous, Song Yanzhou's face darkened. He was about to speak when he met Liu Ruyan's disapproving gaze, so he swallowed his words.
“Qingyu, what happened back then was all our fault. It’s only right that you blame us. We are the ones who let Qingyin down and let the Luo family down.”
Liu Ruyan's eyes were serious. "We have come here today for two reasons: first, to visit Qingyin, and second, to apologize."
The medicinal herbs we brought are all beneficial to Qingyin; we hope you will accept them. We will leave now.
"What happened back then is over. Don't try anything else now. Qingyin isn't unable to get married, nor does she necessarily have to enter your Song family!"
Yan Qingyu was filled with resentment. Even though she knew the whole story yesterday, she couldn't help but think about the pain and pressure her daughter had endured over the past two years.
He was already physically weak, and his condition has worsened in the last two years, which has made him increasingly angry.
"Auntie, what happened back then was all my fault. I'm sorry to you."
With Guan Yan's help, Song Yanzhou knelt down. "I dare not ask for anything now, I only hope that Qingyin is safe. I hope you can accept this. We will leave now."
Seeing Song Yanzhou kneel down, and noticing his mother's cold face, Luo Huaili couldn't help but advise:
“Mother, I think we should hear my second sister’s opinion on this matter.”
Since learning the truth, his hatred for Song Yanzhou has lessened considerably, but the hurt his second sister suffered as a result cannot be erased, and it is understandable that his mother is angry.
However, my second sister has feelings for Brother Yanzhou.
Compared to Yao Jinsheng, Yan Zhou is much more trustworthy.
Yan Qingyu glanced at Luo Huaili with disdain, "Your second sister misjudged someone back then, and I won't allow her to make the same mistake a second time."
"Since you have no other requests, I will accept the item. Please leave."
Liu Ruyan was not surprised by this, as she had made preparations before coming.
After the incident, the two families had no further contact, and even when the two families came, they refused to see each other.
The fact that they were able to get in today proves that their attitude has changed, but they won't easily swallow this insult.
Yao Jinsheng glanced at Song Yanzhou, "Back when you were healthy, you let Qingyin down. Now that you're crippled and have no chance to stand up again, you still want to ruin her life."
Song Yanzhou, what exactly does Qingyin owe you that you have repeatedly harmed her?
“My leg will heal; you don’t need to worry about it.” Song Yanzhou’s eyes were icy. “But you, I heard that your previous wife had several scars on her body when she passed away.”
Yao Jinsheng's expression changed slightly. "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Xu Shiyi stood in front of Yao Jinsheng and sneered, "Madam Song, even if you are jealous of Jinsheng, you shouldn't fabricate such baseless accusations to slander him. It's too despicable!"
"The truth will come out sooner or later." Song Yanzhou's expression remained unchanged, and he turned to look at Yan Qingyu. "Aunt, I hope you will take care of it and make sure Qingyin doesn't marry the wrong person."
Yan Qingyu frowned. "Young Master Yao has always been very good to his ex-wife; everyone knows that."
"Mother, have you forgotten how Yao Jinsheng killed Huang Dou back then?" Luo Huaili asked anxiously.
Yao Jinsheng looked helpless. "I was too immature back then. I did this after arguing with you. It was definitely my fault, and I regret it very much."
Luo Huaili simply didn't believe it. "If you're this cruel after a fight, who knows what you'll do after you fight with my second sister?"
"Huai Li!" Yan Qingyu scolded, "It's normal to act immaturely when you're young, but you certainly won't be like that now."
“Auntie, it was my fault back then. It’s normal for Huaili to blame me. I will prove everything with my actions in the future.”
Yao Jinsheng's appearance exudes humility and sincerity, leaving no room for criticism.
"Even if Qingyin really doesn't want to be with me, it doesn't matter. My heart is clear to all, but Song Yanzhou is the one who is truly sincere."
The entire capital knows he's crippled, and the imperial physicians have all been unable to help him. Now, in his attempt to win back Qingyin, he's spouting nonsense. How can such a person be entrusted with anything?
“Indeed.” Yan Qingyu frowned. “You broke your promise back then, and now you’re making up all this nonsense. Ruyan, I’m really disappointed in you!”
“Qingyu, Yanzhou’s leg really can be cured; I didn’t lie to you,” Liu Ruyan explained.
Xu Shiyi scoffed, "Then why don't you tell me who can cure this? We've seen every doctor in the entire capital, and even the imperial physicians are helpless. I'd like to know where you found this miracle doctor?"
"Is he so desperate to stand up that he's gone mad and developed hysteria?" Yao Jinsheng said with a disdainful look.
Luo Huaili wanted to defend Song Yanzhou, but he was genuinely unaware of the matter and couldn't help but feel puzzled.
"If you don't believe me, Auntie, you can come to visit me again after I've recovered for a while."
Song Yanzhou bowed, not intending to say more on the matter. Facts speak louder than words, and everything would be proven when he came again.
However, Yao Jinsheng was unwilling to let him leave.
"Why are you in such a hurry to leave? Are you feeling guilty?"
“What my elder brother said is the truth. In less than seven days, my elder brother will be able to stand up again,” Song Ruozhen’s voice rang out.
Yao Jinsheng turned to see Song Ruozhen and sneered, "Your whole family seems to have the same story. Do you think you can make people believe you just by saying that?"
"Young Master Yao, what makes you say my elder brother is talking nonsense without any evidence?"
He told you, but you didn't believe him. He said he'd let you see for yourself in a while, but you still insist we're deliberately lying. In that case, how about we make a bet?
