Chapter 674 Contempt

Scar hadn't expected him to be so stubborn and was furious. "The evidence is irrefutable. I want to see how you can argue in front of the general."

This matter not only concerns their lives, but also the lives of the general's entire family. He doesn't believe that the general can continue to protect this dog bone!

Zhu Zhenghong argued confidently, "What do you mean by conclusive evidence? Are they still unsure? Judging from the evidence you found on the ship, the medical book was in the women's cabin, so the doctor might be a girl.

But the doctor who treated me was a male doctor with such superb medical skills. How could I have thought it was them?"

He said this with full confidence, and you really can't blame him.

Most women who study medicine do so because their elders in the family are doctors and they have a family tradition of learning medicine. They learn medicine as a pastime. How advanced can their medical skills be?

Even if we take a step back and assume that those medical books actually belonged to the male guest outside and they couldn't fit in his cabin, so they were placed in the room of his companions, that still doesn't make sense.

There were only a few people on the boat, and the only literate men were Zhang Renzhi, his servant, and another scholar, Yuan.

Scholars' minds are all focused on classics. No matter how talented they are, if they don't work hard and accumulate enough case records, even if they read a few medical books, they will only have a superficial understanding. How can they have such superb medical skills?

As for the servant named Yinzhu, it has been found out that he knows no medical skills at all.

Considering all the circumstances, it is impossible that the group of people led by Master Sun who treated him were that group!

He himself was ill and in critical condition. When he was so sure that they were not the people they were looking for, he accepted the doctor's conditions. In this way, he could make sense in front of the general!

The more Zhu Zhenghong thought about it, the more confident he became. He felt that Scar was the one who was not doing his job well. Once he found someone, he wanted to find a random excuse to put the blame of the poor performance on himself.

He immediately made a sarcastic remark and said that he also wanted to go to the general to reason.

The matter ended unpleasantly.

-----------------

During the New Year, the pancreas shop would be locked as early as the 23rd day of the 12th lunar month, but the Sichuan brocade shop would only be closed for one day on the first day of the new year and would open early on the second day.

Luo Yanxing should have been in the city on the first night of the new year, but thinking that he hadn't seen Xiaoxiang for nearly a year, he and Song Ying stayed in the village for another day.

At noon on the second day of the Chinese New Year, Xiaoxiang finally came back.

"You are alone here, where is your husband?" Luo Yanxing's brows were furrowed so tightly that they could kill a fly. This year is Xiaoxiang's first New Year after getting married, and she needs to visit all her relatives to celebrate the New Year and recognize her relatives. It is very important.

She was the only one who came back!

This shows that the Gong family did not take her as a daughter-in-law seriously at all, nor did they truly recognize the Zhao family as their in-laws.

Xiaoxiang bit her lip and said, "My third aunt, who married far away, will be home tomorrow. My husband can't leave because he's busy at home."

"If you can't leave, send someone to deliver a message in advance and come back two days later. Your parents will understand."

Xiaoxiang forced a smile and said, "I-I'm afraid my parents can't wait."

Song Ying was also very angry at the Gong family's neglect and Xiaoxiang's weakness, but this was the entrance of the village, and saying it here would only make the whole village know and embarrass Xiaoxiang.

She reached out and took some of the bags that Xiaoxiang was carrying. "I'll help you carry some. Aunt Zhang has been looking forward to your return since early morning."

As he said this, he nudged Luo Yanxing with his elbow, signaling her to stop talking for now.

Luo Yanxing pursed his lips, exhaled in anger, and took all the things from Xiaoxiang's hands. "You have so many things, and you didn't even bother to hire two trucks? You're just carrying them like this, and you don't want to use your hands anymore?"

Xiaoxiang rubbed the red marks on her palms with both hands and said with a smile, "I'm not that squeamish. We've talked about heavier things before. This is nothing."

"You said that was in the past. You are now the young mistress of the Gong family. It's not like the Gong family doesn't have a carriage. How could they let you walk back here by yourself?"

The more she spoke, the angrier she became. The Gong family was a family of scholars, but they were not as good as the He family. When Xu Yuzhi came back to celebrate the New Year, the He family gave the Xu family enough respect.

Mr. He accompanied them personally. The two villages were separated by a mountain, and they also sent a carriage to see them off, as well as servants to serve them. The scene was so grand that the villagers now praise it.

They soon arrived at Zhao's house. Zhang was already waiting there. She came out of the kitchen as soon as she heard the noise. The smile on her face disappeared when she saw that only Xiaoxiang was there.

"Where is my son-in-law?" she asked with a sullen face.

Luo Yanxing was so angry that he didn't wait for Xiaoxiang to reply and said, "The Gong family is so unlikeable..."

Song Ying hurriedly tugged at her sleeve, signaling her to be quiet, and then smiled and said to Zhang: "Zhang, Xiaoxiang brought back a lot of gifts for you."

As he spoke, he handed over the thing in his hand, "I wanted to bring some Wang Ji candy to my grandma when I came back the other day, but they were sold out. Aunt Zhang, you are lucky enough to have it."

Zhang glanced at Xiaoxiang, and a smile quickly appeared on her calm face. She said to the two of them, "Thank you for bringing it back. Have you eaten? If not, let's eat together. I've already cooked the meal."

"Thank you, Aunt Zhang. We should be done cooking at home now. We'll go home first." Song Ying said, pulling Luo Yanxing away. As they walked away, he said to Xiaoxiang, "After dinner, we'll play in the afternoon."

Xiaoxiang was uneasy about Zhang's gloomy face, so she casually said "OK" and then carefully observed Zhang's emotions.

After leaving the Zhao family, Luo Yanxing angrily asked, "Why didn't you let me finish?"

"What's the point of saying this? Do you expect Aunt Zhang and the others to feel sorry for Xiaoxiang and go to the Gong family to support her?"

Luo Yanxing paused.

"Aunt Zhang and the others will only think that Xiaoxiang is useless, can't win over her husband's heart, and has no say in her husband's family."

Luo Yanxing clenched his right fist and slammed his left palm hard, "I'm so angry!"

Song Ying glanced in the direction of the Zhao family and was also very worried. Among them, she was most worried about Xiaoxiang.

She was too cowardly and allowed Zhao Hu and his wife to bully her at her mother's house, let alone going to the complicated Gong family.

Given her personality, she would certainly lack confidence when facing the Gong family. In this situation, even the servants might dare to bully her.

However, if Xiaoxiang didn't stand up on her own, it would be useless for her and Yanxing to worry.

Because the Luo family lived closer to the Zhao family, after lunch, Song Ying went to the Luo family and waited with Yan Xing.

After waiting for a long time, she still didn't show up. Luo Yanxing was anxious and worried. She had originally thought that Xiaoxiang would come back at noon, and they would take advantage of the time before and after dinner to ask her about her life after marriage, and then rush back to the city before dark in the afternoon to give red envelopes to Meiyue and others. After all, today was the first day of work in the new year, and they had to wish their employees good luck.

Song Ying glanced at the sky and said, "You should go back to the city first. I'll tell you if there's anything tomorrow."

Luo Yanxing wanted to nod, but he glanced in the direction of the Zhao family and said through gritted teeth, "Wait another quarter of an hour. If she doesn't come, I'll leave."
