The Challenge of a Farmhouse Son-in-Law

"Has the master inside been ill for many days?" Jie Erye slightly furrowed his brow as he looked toward the courtyard, his surprise giving way to a hint of disgust.

Lin Qianqing hurriedly said, "Jie Erge, didn’t you know that your sister-in-law has been sick?"

She’s been sick? What does that have to do with him? He turned his head away in disgust, too lazy even to glance at that courtyard.

"Cuiya said that the Du Family’s Concubine refuses to call for a doctor, fearing they might cause trouble outside. She even locked the door," Qianqing commented.

Gu Youyou looked at Lin Qianqing in astonishment. This girl was truly... Did she intend to stand up for the Miss of the Du Family out of spite?

But that all depended on the attitude of the man. If he wished for your death, no amount of pity would win his compassion; it would only increase his loathing.

To Lin Qianqing’s words, Jie Erye responded with surprise, then anger flared. "What nonsense are you spouting? How could Aqing refuse to call a doctor for that woman? She is Aqing’s elder sister. If it weren’t for her insistence on keeping that woman, she would have already been thrown out by me a long time ago."

Having said this, both Gu Youyou and Lin Qianqing were taken aback.

It turned out that Jie Erye had no idea that the Miss of the Du Family was sick, and he was completely unaware that the two Misses of the Du Family, because of him, had already become as hostile as water and fire, each intent on the other’s demise. How blind must one be to look so confounded?

An idiot wrapped in stupidity, all wasted on a good-looking exterior. This was Gu Youyou’s opinion of Jie Erye.
