Upon hearing Yang Chuxia’s words, Ms. Liu’s heart became instantly brighter.
"Yes, yes, Xiaxia is right." Ms. Liu stepped forward and took hold of Yang Dongzhi, "I’ll pack your clothes now, and send you to your grandma’s house tomorrow."
Seeing the situation under control, Yang Chuxia whispered something to Ms. Liu. Ms. Liu then looked at her with a strange expression, wondering how this girl knew about the contraceptive decoction.
Yang Chuxia simply shrugged her shoulders and walked out of the first branch of the family. She saw Ms. Luo standing in the courtyard, staring eagerly at the scene inside.
Ms. Luo actually wanted to get closer and listen to the conversation, but Yang Qingbao, the child from the same branch, was strangely alert and stood right at his doorstep, preventing her from approaching.
Yang Chuxia fixed her eyes on Ms. Luo, who dared not lift her head.
Just as Yang Chuxia was about to return to her room, she suddenly stood in front of Ms. Luo and said, "I don’t care what you know or don’t know, don’t let a single word slip out about this, or else..."
Hearing this warning, Ms. Luo felt somewhat guilty. She was already planning on gossiping about the matter. After all, she was still resentful that Yang Dongzhi’s sisters brought help from the third branch of the family and the doctor.
So when she heard about Yang Dongzhi’s trouble and saw her in pain, she felt secretly pleased. She learned from eavesdropping that Yang Dongzhi was not innocent and intended to gossip about it in the village in a few days, hoping to bring misfortune upon the sisters who ruined her plans.
However, Yang Chuxia’s sudden warning made her hesitate.
Seeing her hesitance, Yang Chuxia’s eyes flashed with disgust and said, "Don’t forget that your mother-in-law died of adultery. The villagers already dislike your branch of the family. If you say more, imagine how they’d view you. Your daughter Dongxue and Dongzhi share the same grandmother, and people will say that the whole family is rotten. Don’t think that your daughter is too young to be affected."
Actually, Ms. Luo never felt much connection to the first branch of the family since they didn’t share a father. Even though they had the same mother, she had already died. Besides, her daughter was still young, so she believed the scandal wouldn’t affect her.
Seeing Ms. Luo’s indifference, Yang Chuxia sternly said, "I’m not discussing this with you. I’m warning you, keep this matter to yourself. If I hear any rumors outside, I’ll come after you. The Yang Family has already lost enough face. If you dare spread more gossip and ruin the family’s remaining reputation, I’ll make you pay dearly!""
Just then, Yang Xiaochuan came out having heard the noise and said, "Yang Chuxia, don’t forget who’s closest to you!"
Yang Chuxia snorted coldly, "Even if we’re close, we’re still separated. Are you closer to me than to my father? You didn’t hesitate to hurt him either! Don’t look for trouble when there’s none. The matter with my father isn’t over yet, wait until our uncle returns tomorrow and see how I deal with you. As for the matter you know, the same goes for you. If I hear any rumors outside, I’ll beat you up!"
After saying this, Yang Chuxia left the courtyard of the Yang Family and prepared to go home.
"Sister Xiaxia, Sister Xiaxia." Not long after she had left, a voice called out from behind.
Yang Chuxia turned around and found that it was Yang Qingbao. She stopped and asked, "What do you want?" After these events, her impression of this boy had improved slightly, so her tone was not as harsh as before.
