On the way back, Shen Yijia tore off a leaf in a good mood. Song Jingchen, who was following behind, chuckled.

Shen Yijia turned around in confusion. “What are you laughing at?”

“I thought you’d be angry that I didn’t stand up for you.” Song Jingchen was already prepared to explain.

“I’m not really at a disadvantage. Besides, Hubby, you must have your reasons for doing this. I’m not angry.” Shen Yijia grinned. She thought of something and scratched her head in embarrassment. “Can you not praise other women in the future?”

Song Jingchen was stunned. It took him a long time to understand that she was referring to the saying that women were not inferior to men. He nodded and said, “My wife is better than any woman.”

Shen Yijia blushed at the praise, especially when he called her his wife. She raised her chin. “Of course.”

Song Jingchen couldn’t help but laugh. At the same time, he was touched. Even though this girl didn’t know anything, she still trusted him. In that case, how could he disappoint her?

Old General Luo brought Luo Yunying home. As soon as the courtyard door closed, Old General Luo shouted, “Kneel.”

Luo Yuanying knelt down without a word.

“Do you admit your mistake?” Old General Luo asked sternly.

Luo Yuanying lowered her head. “I know my mistake.”

Although she said that, she did not mind. At most, she felt that she was too slow and did not slash that b*tch’s face.

Eldest Young Master did not punish them for that b*tch just now, which meant that that b*tch was nothing in Eldest Young Master’s heart. As for those caring words, it was only because Eldest Young Master was a good person. Even if it was someone else, she believed that Eldest Young Master would have acted the same way.

Others thought that she admired Eldest Young Master because of his looks, but that was not the case. She wanted to marry Eldest Young Master because he had saved her life.

Old General Luo knew his granddaughter very well. Seeing her like this, he knew what she was thinking. He sighed. “Go back to your room and reflect on yourself. Eldest Young Master is already married. You can’t do anything rash again.”

“Grandfather, you clearly said before…”

“Eldest Young Master wasn’t married back then, but things are different now.” Old General Luo interrupted her in a low voice. “No matter how down and out our Luo family is, we definitely won’t let our granddaughter be a concubine.”

Moreover, if Song Jingchen didn’t do anything, he would only be a sinner after leaving the Qilin Mountain. How could he be worthy of marrying the granddaughter of the Luo family?

Madam Cui heard the commotion and walked out from the back of the courtyard. She glanced at her daughter and bowed to Old General Luo. “Father-in-law is back. I’ll go prepare lunch now.”

Old General Luo nodded and went to the study with a cold expression.

Madam Cui loosened her grip on her sleeve cage and walked forward to help Luo Yunying up. She reminded her, “Don’t make your grandfather angry.”

“Mother!”

“Go back to your room,” Madam Cui urged.

Luo Yunying bit her lower lip and paused when she reached the door. Killing intent flashed across her eyes. Who said that she wanted to be a concubine? The Eldest Young Master’s official wife could only be her, Luo Yunying.

No one knew what Song Jingchen had told the four generals. They only knew that the four generals didn’t appear for lunch. It wasn’t until the sun was setting that the four of them came down from the mountainside while chatting and laughing.

Old General Luo had been keeping an eye on the commotion in the mountains. When he heard this, he was so angry that he didn’t eat his dinner.

At night, the sentry came to report that Uncle Yang had left the mountain with a small group of people.

In the past decade, he had only arranged for people to go shopping every month. He had always been the one making the arrangements. In other words, he had the final say in who could go out.

This was the first time something like this had happened. What was Song Jingchen trying to do?

“Father, perhaps you’re overthinking it.”

The person who spoke was Old General Luo’s second son, Luo Yongchang.

Old General Luo’s eldest son, Luo Yongsheng, leaned against the headboard and glanced at his younger brother. Perhaps because he had not seen the light for many years, Luo Yongsheng’s skin was abnormally fair, and he looked very feminine.

“Ah Sheng, what do you think?” Old General Luo’s second son had been playful since he was young. After coming here, he became listless and had nothing to do. His eldest son was the exact opposite, but his legs were crippled.

Sometimes, he even thought about how good it would be if his second son was the one who became crippled instead.

Luo Yongsheng frowned. “Eldest Young Master is probably here for our family this time. Father, we’d better…”

“Father, Big Brother.” Luo Yongchang suddenly stood up and interrupted Luo Yongsheng. Seeing the two of them look over, he continued with a cheeky smile, “I just wanted to say that it’s so late. I’m going back to my room to sleep. The two of you can chat.”

Old General Luo instantly pulled a long face. However, before he could reprimand him, Luo Yongchang had already run out.

When he reached the door, he turned to look at the two people in the room. “Is power really that important? Not to mention the Song family’s current situation, Father, you used to have a high position and a generous salary. Our Luo family was also one of the top disciples in the capital, but in the end?

“Isn’t our current situation quite good? Why are we still scheming?”

There was a moment of silence.
