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

Yu Moyan also frowned:

"The Prime Minister's daughter? Why would she invite you? Could it be that Wen Lang has sided with the Prime Minister?"

Yu Shuyan shook her head:

"No. If Wen Lang were to side with the Prime Minister, then even if he knew I was at my maternal home, the letter would only be sent to him."

The Wen family's goods wouldn't be sent here.

Yu Moyan frowned:

"I've heard of Situ Yue. It's said that she's proficient in all the arts, including music, chess, calligraphy, and painting; her beauty and demeanor are unparalleled in Lingjin. I've heard that any young lady who can befriend her will be highly regarded by her future in-laws. Countless young ladies from prominent families long to receive a letter from her. How did she end up giving you her letter?"

Fu Yuqin thought for a moment, then hesitated before saying:

"Could it be that they want to ask Lady Yuan to treat their illness through you?"

Yu Shuyan shook her head slightly:

"Yuan Niangzi's reputation as a divine physician is not yet particularly prominent. Although she has the support of Physician Ding,..."

Most people are taking a wait-and-see approach. I, the savior of this woman, am unworthy to be invited by such a noble person.

Yu Moyan hesitated for a moment, then said:

"Forget it, it's better to avoid trouble. Why don't you just pretend to be sick and not go? I have a feeling that something's not quite right here."

Fu Yuqin nodded repeatedly:

"Yes, yes, your brother is right. Those kinds of occasions are full of the young ladies from Lingjin City. You're not the same kind of people as them. Those delicate young girls are all incredibly cunning. You don't even know it yet, maybe someone already holds a grudge against you. It's better not to go. We're merchants, we don't need to deal with them."

As Yu Shuyan listened to Fu Yuqin speaking so earnestly, she burst out laughing.

"Mother, who told you all this? Anyone who didn't know better would think you had some kind of relationship with these young ladies!"

Her words caused Fu Yuqin's face to stiffen for a moment. She quickly lowered her head, concealing the sadness in her eyes.

Yu Wantao glanced at her quickly, then smiled, drawing Yu Shuyan's attention.

"You silly girl, don't you know? Your mother loves reading plays and storybooks. Of course!"

I heard all of that from there.

When Fu Yuqin looked up again, her face was full of smiles:

"Your father is right. That's what they say in the storybooks. Those rich young ladies are the most cunning and difficult to get along with. You should listen to your brother and not go!"

Yu Shuyan stared at Fu Yuqin suspiciously for a long time.

She always felt that the two of them were hiding something from her.

But then she thought, even if her parents had any secrets, she should respect their wishes if they didn't want to tell her.

So she didn't press further, but after a moment's thought, she said:

"No, I want to go!"

The group of people stared at her in surprise.

Obviously, it was quite strange that she was so determined to go.

Umanyu, who had been sitting quietly to one side, hesitated for a moment before saying:

"Shuyan, actually, I have a suspicion, but I don't know if I should say it!"

Yu Shuyan nodded:

"you say!"

Umanyu bit her lip and said:

"I'm thinking, if we all find this letter strange, is it possible that it's a fake?"

~~~~~~~

"Fake stationery?"

Zhou Ruifen exclaimed in surprise, but immediately covered her mouth with a handkerchief and looked around.

Seeing that there was no one else in his backyard, he breathed a sigh of relief, lowered his hand, and continued in a low voice.

"Ziyue, are you crazy? That's Situ Yue's letter! Others may not know what she's really like, but surely we do! I'm afraid that if she finds out, and we actually dared to forge her letter, what will become of us...?"

Instantly, the scene they had inadvertently stumbled upon flashed before their eyes:

That time, it was also at the poetry gathering at Situ Yue's house.

The daughter of a county magistrate was plotted against by her stepmother to marry an old man as his second wife, which she resented.

When I was desperate, I came up with this idea.

That is, someone made a fake letter in Situ Yue's name and had it delivered to her house.

Her wish was to receive a letter from Situ Yue.

Then the magistrate would certainly reassess her value and wouldn't just marry her off to an old man for a little money.

As she had hoped, after receiving the letter, the magistrate paused his work and discussed the marriage with the old man.

However, at her stepmother's behest, someone was sent to the Prime Minister's residence at the time indicated on the letter.

She also demanded that the person delivering the gift must personally witness her entering the Prime Minister's residence.

The magistrate's daughter had no choice but to bite the bullet and sneak into the Prime Minister's poetry gathering with the fake stationery.

At the poetry gathering, unsurprisingly, her fake stationery was exposed.

Just when everyone thought that Situ Yue would order someone to throw the person out,

Situ Yue listened patiently to her sobbing as she knelt on the ground.

After learning the whole story, she didn't throw the person out.

After asking her what she wanted, I learned that she wanted to leave that suffocating home and go to the misty, rainy Jiangnan region she longed for, where she could be free and at ease.

Situ Yue personally stepped forward and signed a severance agreement on her behalf with the county magistrate, ending their father-daughter relationship.

Then, he gave her a large sum of money and bought her a courtyard in Jiangnan, and sent someone to personally escort her there to ensure her safety.

This matter became the talk of the town in Lingjin City.

Because of this incident, Situ Yue's reputation for elegance and purity has reached a new level.

At the time, both of them thought so too.

However, on another occasion, the two of them had the chance to go to Jiangnan with their father, who was on a business trip.

Among a group of beggars, they happened to see the magistrate's daughter again.

That girl from a modest family, at that time, had already had her eyes gouged out and her legs broken.

She was clearly mentally unstable, squeezed among a group of beggars, her clothes so tattered they could barely cover her body.

Every now and then, some male beggars would reach out and touch her.

However, she didn't react at all; she just mechanically held up the broken bowl and made begging gestures.

But what came out of his mouth was a blank, repetitive utterance:

"I was wrong~ I won't do it again~ I won't do it again~ I was wrong~ Ah~ I won't fake it again~ I won't do it again~~"

At that moment, they felt a chill run down their spines.

Before their eyes reappeared Situ Yue's face—a face that was breathtakingly beautiful, seemingly harmless, kind, and gentle. As they looked at each other, they saw deep disgust and fear in each other's eyes.

Zhou Ziyue knew she was afraid; there was a fleeting fear in her eyes as well.

However, after a moment's hesitation, she still advised:

"If you are afraid, I will send someone to retrieve the letter now."

He paused, staring intently at Zhou Ruifen's expression, and continued slowly:

"However, you should think this through. Are you really willing to give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to use someone else to get rid of Wen Lang's wife?"
