Reborn as a doctor, he takes revenge and ruthlessly punishes the scum.

Outside the Yu family courtyard.

Wen Qing scolded impatiently:

"Mom, what's going on? Every time we came before, they were always so polite and invited us in. Why have we been waiting for so long this time? Nobody has come out to greet us yet!"

Wen's mother glanced at the flow of people on the street and sneered in a low voice:

"Hmph, that's more like it. That little bitch dared to go against me last time and even ran back to her parents' house. Now, she must be scared. Her lowly merchant parents raised such an ill-mannered little slut; they know they're in the wrong. They don't dare to come out and see us!"

Suspicion flashed in Wen Qing's eyes:

"Is that right?"

Wen Mu's voice rose:

"Of course that's how it is, what else could it be? Don't forget, before your brother passed the exam, his family was fawning over our family and bowing and scraping to us. Now, your brother is about to become a high-ranking official. Do you think they can turn against us?"

“Just you wait. In a little while, this family will open the door, grovel and invite us in, and then kneel at our feet and beg for mercy.”

Wen Qing also thought this made sense, and a greedy glint flashed in her eyes:

"Yes, that's definitely it, Mother. Don't give in too easily later. We must take advantage of this good opportunity to get as much money as possible. After all, we've already spent all the dowry that slut brought. Before Brother divorces her, we should still try to get more money from them."

"Otherwise, if we lose this free servant, we'll have to hire someone to take care of us."

"Ideally, we could acquire a few shops. That way, even if she's divorced, we'll still have something to rely on for making money."

Wen's mother looked at her with admiration:

"You're so smart, how come I didn't think of that? Alright, if they don't agree to give us a few shops later, I'll make sure she's unfilial and that your brother divorces her."

"She's so infatuated with your brother, she'll definitely give in."

As the two were discussing their plan, the door opened.

Wen's mother was even more smug:

See, here it is.

Then, she raised her chin, adopting an arrogant attitude, and waited for everyone to come out and greet her.

"come in!"

Uncle Fu's disgusted voice came from inside the door.

Mrs. Wen was stunned, thinking she had misheard, and stared intently at the door.

However, after waiting for a while, there was no further movement except for the words "Come in".

Wen Qing sensed something was wrong and tugged at her mother's sleeve:

"Mother, what's going on? Shouldn't a group of people come out to greet us?"

Mother Wen thought for a moment, seemingly having figured something out, and scoffed:

"They're probably afraid of losing face. There are so many people coming and going here. They're afraid we'll say that the little bitch is unfilial and disobedient."

Wen Qing frowned again:

"Is that right?"

Mother Wen, however, said with certainty:

“That little bitch is obsessed with your brother. As long as she wants to be a member of the Wen family, she won’t dare to cause any trouble. Don’t worry, let’s go in.”

Suddenly, the image of Yu Shuyan's icy, piercing gaze flashed before Wen Qing's eyes when she went to ask Yu Shuyan for the pearl jewelry. A sense of fear and hesitation welled up in her heart.

However, when she thought of Wen Lang, and how Yu Shuyan had been bullied by them for so many years, always enduring beatings and scoldings, she couldn't help but think of Wen Lang.

Then she thought it must be her imagination. That little bitch can't cause any trouble.

So, with her head held high and utterly arrogant, she followed Wen's mother into the Yu family's gate.

However, as soon as she stepped through the door, she bumped into Wen's mother, who was standing inside.

"Mom, stop here and keep working!"

He started complaining, but then stopped abruptly.

Because she saw that Yu Shuyan's family were all standing in the yard with unfriendly expressions.

Wen's mother, oblivious to their expressions, raised her chin even higher, her arrogance growing stronger.

"It seems you all know what kind of good deeds that little slut Yu Shuyan has been doing at her in-laws' house."

Fu Yuqin suppressed her anger and said coldly:

"Oh, I'd like to know what good deed our Shuyan has done."

Mother Wen snorted coldly:

“What did she do? How dare you ask? She beat up her sister-in-law, disrespected her mother-in-law, and disobeyed her husband. She has committed heinous crimes of filial impiety, disobedience, and rebellion.”

Her loud, rapid voice attracted passersby to the doorway, who slowly gathered around it.

In the crowd, Aunt Niu smiled, exchanged a glance with Yu Shuyan, and nodded imperceptibly.

Yu Shuyan stared coldly at Wen's mother:

The stage is set up, Mother-in-law, don't let me down!

Wen's mother didn't notice any of this.

She was already annoyed because they hadn't swept the floor to welcome her, and Yu Shuyan hadn't knelt down to repent.

Seeing a large crowd gathering around, he became even more emboldened, determined to thoroughly damage the Yu family's reputation. He raised his voice and loudly rebuked them:

"Yu Shuyan, the fact that our Wen family is willing to let you into our family is the greatest favor we can do for you. Otherwise, how could a merchant's daughter like you marry our family's scholar? Now, our Lang'er has even passed the imperial examination with flying colors and is about to become a high-ranking official."

"You tell me, not only have you not curbed your bad temper over the years, but you've actually gone even further, beating your sister-in-law, talking back to your mother-in-law, and even running back to your parents' home. Tell me, is this how a daughter-in-law should behave?!"

The onlookers looked at Wen's mother with sympathy, then at the Yu family members with disdain, whispering amongst themselves:

"Yes, that's going too far. How can a married woman be so disobedient? If this goes to the authorities, she could be sued and divorced."

"Yes, and besides, her husband has passed the imperial examination with flying colors and is about to become a high-ranking official. Alas, the merchant's daughter really has poor manners and cannot be a good wife to an official."

"Yes, she really hit the jackpot. But she doesn't know how to appreciate it. Poor mother-in-law and sister-in-law, what a difficult daughter-in-law!"

"I know that Wen Lang. Not only is he incredibly handsome, but he also has a gentle and refined temperament. It's such a pity that someone like him is paired with this cunning merchant's daughter."

"Oh dear, I heard the other day that the Yu family pharmacy malfunctioned. It seems like the saying goes, 'If the upper beam is crooked, the lower beam will be crooked too.' I really won't dare go to the Yu family pharmacy anymore."

"That's right, that's right. Boss Yu looks so kind and gentle, but you can never judge a book by its cover."

······

Listening to the surrounding discussions, Wen's mother and Wen Qing could hardly contain their smugness.

She lowered her head, pretending to wipe away tears, to show her sadness and conceal the smile that had crept onto her lips.

Wen Qing, at the opportune moment, pretended to lower her head to comfort her, but secretly gave Yu Shuyan a smug, provocative look.
