The crowd who came to watch the spectacle were quite satisfied; such excitement is a rare sight.

The Ke family mother and daughter were usually so arrogant, and they felt extremely satisfied watching them get slapped in the face today!

Judging from the Ke family's behavior, obtaining 800,000 taels of silver is probably not so easy; there's likely more to come...

The Song family left the Ke family satisfied, carrying the recovered items and IOUs.

When Lord Ke returned from court, he learned that his wife and daughter owed the Song family 800,000 taels of silver, and he felt as if the sky had fallen!

With so much silver, how could the Ke family possibly repay it?

"Snapped!"

Lord Ke raised his hand and slapped his mother across the face. "Look what you've done! You've squandered 800,000 taels of silver!"

"You hit me?"

Covering her slapped face, and seeing the other members of the three branches of the family still watching the spectacle, Madam Ke could no longer contain her anger and cried out:

"Don't you have any idea how much money you spent back then? Now you're blaming it all on me. Didn't you spend that money?"

Lord Ke naturally spent money. With Song Jingshen, a sucker, constantly sending money to his family, they initially refused, but after accepting it once, they would accept it again and again, and gradually they got used to spending money lavishly.

Moreover, Song Jingshen was good at business and generous with his money; even though he spent so much silver, he never complained about a penny.

He knew the amount of silver was considerable, but he didn't realize it was so astonishing. It was clear that the mother and daughter had been squandering it behind his back!

Upon hearing the news, the men from the other three households rushed over, their expressions turning grave.

"Brother, you really need to keep an eye on your wife and Yuanzhi. They've taken so much money but they're unwilling to get married. They're even trying to secretly arrange a marriage with the Qu family while they're away. Nobody would want that!"

"That's right! It's a big problem for Song Jingshen to come back now, but if he causes trouble after Yuanzhi gets married, he might just be divorced and sent back!"

"I advise you to fill this hole as soon as possible, otherwise it will not only ruin the reputation of our Ke family, but it may also affect your official reputation."

Lord Ke's already terrible mood worsened after what the others said, and he wished he could beat those two spendthrift women to death!

Ke Yuanzhi didn't dare to utter a sound. She felt like she was in a dream, what kind of methods did Song Ruozhen use to make Song Jingshen so cruel to her?

She clearly had this man completely under her control; there was no way she could have changed like this...

……

After leaving the Ke family, Song Ruozhen and her group noticed a large crowd gathered outside, all staring at them with curiosity in their eyes.

Song Ruozhen smiled slightly, but accidentally dropped the extra list she had copied earlier onto the ground.

The people around quickly picked it up, and when they saw what was on it, they were all shocked and their eyes widened, bursting into gasps of surprise.

"My God, the Ke family's appetite is way too big!"

"They actually have the nerve to say they don't care about the Song family's things, they're utterly shameless!"

Looking at the IOU from the Ke family, Song Ruozhen took out Lin Zhiyue's IOU.

She was very unhappy that so much money had not been repaid. The original owner had really lost out by helping such a poor family!

Seeing his younger sister looking at the IOU, Song Jingshen understood what she was thinking and said:

"How did Lin Zhiyue fall to such a state? I thought he was a promising talent, but now he's just a penniless commoner?"

Song Zhiyu smiled smugly, "Who told that guy to be so stupid? He gave up our Fifth Sister, this phoenix, and insisted on marrying that pheasant who liked to cheat on him. Now he has nothing left."

Song Ruozhen: "..." You are capable of summarizing.

Song Jingshen raised an eyebrow. He had just returned and had learned too much information at once, so he hadn't yet figured out many details.

"He deserves it, he still owes us so much money and hasn't paid it back?"

"I plan to go and take over their house later. I've been too busy lately and haven't had a chance to do so."

Song Ruozhen smiled slightly. She learned that Qin Shuangshuang had already returned to the Lin residence. Although she didn't know what Lin Zhiyue was thinking when he forgave her, it was only natural that everyone should be present when the house was to be taken back.

Song Jingshen and Song Zhiyu exchanged a glance, and immediately became interested.

"We'll go with you!"

Song Yi'an nodded in agreement. Although a gentleman does not go to extremes, those who bully his sister deserve to pay the price!

Lin Zhiyue's fate was entirely his own doing.

Lin.

Qin Shuangshuang felt a surge of joy after being brought back by Lin Zhiyue.

"Zhiyue, I knew you cared about me. Please let me explain what happened before. I was truly wronged!"

Lin Zhiyue looked at the woman in front of him, his feelings were indescribably complicated. Originally, he was completely in love with Shuangshuang and felt that she was the woman he wanted most in his life.

But after getting married and experiencing various things, my initial feelings gradually changed...

My mother always said that Qin Shuangshuang was a jinx, bringing bad luck to our family. Ever since she entered the family, nothing good has ever happened.

At first, he didn't believe it at all, but as he heard it more and more recently, he gradually began to think that his mother was right.

For a man, marrying the wrong wife is truly the end!

However, Shuangshuang can have precognitive dreams, especially the one where she says she knows where the Third Prince is in danger during the hunting competition.

If he can prepare in advance, he will have made a great contribution by saving the Third Prince at the critical moment!

Therefore, he still needs her to return to the court. He is unwilling to live the life of an ordinary person. He wants to stand up and slap these guys in the face!

"Shuangshuang, you've always understood my feelings for you, but with so many things happening this time, I couldn't accept it right away, which is why I didn't pick you up immediately."

Besides, you know your mother's temperament, after all these things happened..."

Qin Shuangshuang felt a surge of displeasure as she thought about Lin's mother, that old hag. She knew without a doubt that she must have said a lot of bad things about her to Zhiyue.

Once I'm successful, I'll definitely kick that old hag out of the house!

"Zhiyue, I understand what you're saying. I made a mistake this time, so it's normal for my mother-in-law to blame me."

"No matter what she says to me later, I will never talk back." Qin Shuangshuang showed her obedient nature.

Lin Zhiyue nodded, then showed a satisfied expression. "That's good. By the way, the hunting competition you mentioned is about to begin. We must take this opportunity to catch the Third Prince's eye."

"Yes!" Qin Shuangshuang's eyes lit up with joy. "Then you can return to officialdom!"

She had been waiting for this day for far too long. What kind of life had she been living lately?

Those who used to fawn over her are now laughing at her. Once this is resolved, she'll make them regret it!

"By the way, Zhiyue, I recently heard that you and Sun Yan'er have been getting very close. Is that true?" Qin Shuangshuang asked.
