Chapter 338 To Abandon Meng Jingyang

"When you came to my master, you didn't tell him that Young Master Meng was insane."

"What else could this be but a marriage scam? Do you expect me to just obediently jump into this fire pit of yours and not run away?"

Guo Rong's face was so dark it looked like ink was about to drip out, and at that moment Meng Jingyang was still crying and making a fuss, trying to pull Song Tingwan away.

Li Yunwan stood in front of Song Tingwan, blocking his way. "Young Master Meng, our Wan'er is not your wife."

"Let your mother find you one."

Guo Rong was furious and tried to leave with Meng Jingyang, but was stopped by Zou Ersheng and his group.

"You hit someone and think you can just leave? What will you say when the doctor arrives?"

Guo Rong and her group realized they couldn't leave, and making a scene was useless.

Jun Qianzi arrived shortly afterward and shook his head after giving Wen Zizhou a thorough examination.

"The wound was fine initially, but it has reopened and will take some time to heal."

"He needs to be fed some high-quality food to stay healthy, otherwise he might develop chronic illnesses."

Upon hearing this, Song Tingwan's heart tightened, and she said to Guo Rong, "Last time, it was also someone from your Meng family who injured Zizhou, so let's settle both scores together."

Guo Rong scoffed coldly, "There's nothing in this world that money can't solve."

All you want is money, right? She'll give it to you!

She pulled up a chair and sat down, haughtily raising her chin. "How much silver? Give me a figure."

"Don't waste my time."

Anyway, Song Tingwan doesn't want it anymore. Look at how lovey-dovey she is with that pretty boy.

She'll probably be an adulterer in the future! She wouldn't even want her son as a concubine!

At worst, she can go back and find someone else; she doesn't believe she can't find someone her son likes.

When Wen Zizhou heard that she wanted to pay compensation, he felt that his wounds didn't hurt so much anymore. He held up one finger at Guo Rong.

Guo Rong snorted coldly, "Heh, easy."

As she spoke, she pulled out several silver notes from her sleeve. Wen Zizhou glanced at them and said, "Ten thousand taels for the two doctor visits, plus one thousand taels for the damaged items in my restaurant, that's barely acceptable."

He snatched the silver note from Guo Rong's hand, then stretched out his hand and said, "Ten thousand taels, I won't argue with you, otherwise you won't leave here today."

As soon as he finished speaking, the restaurant staff, including the men Zou Ersheng brought, surrounded Guo Rong and her group.

Guo Rong pointed at Zou Ersheng, her finger trembling, "Is there no law anymore?! You...you!"

"The law? Here, I, the official, am the law!"

Guo Youcai walked in with his hands behind his back and was displeased to see the mess.

Last time, he made a promise to Yan Feng, saying he would protect the restaurant.

They then turned around and sent over a lot of silver; they were incredibly efficient.

I took their money to solve their problems, and today I've been the one who got this messed up.

Guo Rong was now completely helpless; these people were clearly in cahoots.

They can't even bring the person back and have already caused such a huge mess. If Meng Jichang finds out, they're finished.

She took a deep breath and said reluctantly, "The silver is in the carriage; I need to go get it."

Guo Youcai raised an eyebrow and winked at Zou Ersheng, who understood and followed Guo Rong outside.

Even after being given the silver, Meng Jingyang remained rooted to the spot and refused to leave. In the end, Guo Rong had to call four people to carry him out and forcefully shove him into the carriage.

Song Tingwan was still a little dazed, not expecting the matter to be resolved so easily.

Li Yunwan flicked her forehead. "At least you didn't starve to death out there."

Your dad must be swamped with work at home.

Song Tingwan was puzzled. After everyone had left, the two of them talked for a long time in the private room about the things that had happened recently.

Those businesses are manageable, but the most troublesome thing is the dock area.

Those who were lured to the Meng family by the five times the wages have not gained anything.

Meng Jichang's original intention was not to poach people, but to incite a strike by the dock workers.

But what I didn't expect was that those people went to Mengjia Wharf, and Meng Jichang had no intention of letting them work there at all.

The promise of five times the wages is just a gimmick to trip us up!

Those people had no way to return to Songjia Wharf, but Songjia Wharf had already been fully staffed.

Furthermore, even if there is a shortage of people, those people can't be used anymore. Are we just waiting for them to betray the Song family a second time?

This angered the locals, who began loitering around Songjia Wharf daily and constantly causing trouble.

Upon hearing this, Song Tingwan couldn't help but curse, "Father has never mistreated them! A bunch of ungrateful wretches!"

Seeing her angry expression, Li Yunwan couldn't help but find it amusing. "And you're talking about others? Aren't you an ungrateful little devil yourself?"

Thinking of her youngest son at home, she added, "After you left, Chi-ge'er has been asking me for his sister every day, and he doesn't study properly anymore."

Thinking of Song Guanchi, Li Yunwan's eyes were filled with loving kindness.

When she was pregnant, she was always worried that Song Tingwan would not like the children after they were born. Unexpectedly, the two children were closer than siblings.

Song Tingwan couldn't bring herself to say she wanted to go home immediately; now she didn't have to hide anymore...

Li Yunwan's eyes flickered, and she whispered in Song Tingwan's ear, "Are you reluctant to part with that young man?"

Song Tingwan's ears turned slightly red, and Li Yunwan understood everything about her reaction.

When she asked about Wen Zizhou's attitude, Song Tingwan shook her head sadly, "I never told him how I felt."

"I don't know what he thinks of me, and to this day I don't even know what kind of woman he likes."

Song Tingwan slumped over the table, looking somewhat dejected.

Li Yunwan patted her shoulder, "Isn't Yunniang here? Just wait and see."

Song Tingwan looked up at her with little interest, feeling that she was a bit unreliable.

Song Youqing also received the news and was finally relieved to hear that his daughter was alright.

When Butler Song entered, he saw that the man was all smiles, and thinking about what he was about to say, he also felt happy.

"Sir, the matter at the docks has been resolved."

Song Youqing nodded. If those people are unrighteous, then he shouldn't be blamed for being unjust.

It's good to send them somewhere else to suffer, otherwise they'll always think the Song family is easy to bully.

Meng Jichang has been lying in the Pear Blossom Garden all day these days, and he didn't even bother to look at Guo Rong when she returned.

Meng Jingyang seemed to have lost his soul; he didn't respond when called.

As soon as Guo Rong returned to the mansion, she summoned the best doctor to examine her, only to say that there was nothing serious, she simply didn't want to talk to anyone.

Even though her son had become like this, Meng Jichang still didn't care. Guo Rong was so angry that she ran to Pear Blossom Garden.

Upon seeing her, Meng Jichang was taken aback. "Madam, why are you back so soon after taking Yang'er out to play?"

He looked concerned, but his eyes never left Qiu Li's stomach.

"How are things going with the people Master sent to find Miss Song? Have they been found?"

Guo Rong ignored him. This time, she went out under the pretext of taking Meng Jichang out to carry out her plan. She just didn't expect Song Tingwan to be so lucky.

Now, it all depends on what Meng Jichang does.

Even if Song Tingwan doesn't enter the Meng family's gate, she still has to vent her anger.

Meng Jichang paused in stroking Qiu Li's belly, then said, "I've been thinking about it. Song Tingwan has been gone for so long; who knows, she might be messing around with some random guy."

"Let's talk about Yang'er's marriage later. We'll find him a better one."

Both Song and You have suffered, and they have probably lost a lot of money these days.

She's just a woman; what kind of woman can't the Meng family have?

Guo Rong laughed in anger, so this father didn't care about his son at all!

She glared fiercely at Qiu Li, who immediately hid in Meng Jichang's arms, trembling with fear. "Master..."

Her sweet voice carried a hint of fear and unease.

Meng Jichang looked up at Guo Rong, who had already walked out with a flick of her sleeve. "In that case, we'll do as you say, sir."
