章節 50: Backfired

Old Madam Yu laughed incredulously. "If Yu Jianjia's illness worsens because of the time I took for my consultation, wouldn't I, her grandmother, become a bad person? Yu Zongzheng, have you become resentful towards me because I'd scolded you earlier, so you're trying to frame me as revenge?"

When Yu Zongzheng realized this, he was so embarrassed that he wanted to crawl into a hole in the ground. "Mother, I didn't mean that. I wasn't thinking carefully."

He glanced at Madam Yang and frowned.

Earlier, he hadn't agreed with this either. He had only asked Imperial Physician Hu to visit his mother first because Madam Yang was worried about Old Madam Yu's health and had strongly persuaded him. He had thought that Madam Yang was being a filial daughter-in-law, but who would have realized that she was actually being thoughtless?

At the thought of this, the many bad thoughts within his heart suddenly gained momentum again.
