Traveling through ancient times.

Jiang Zijun felt very uneasy and even a little scared.

After all, she had said a lot of bad things about Jiang Yizhou behind his back before, and even did a lot of tricks to get into her brother-in-law's bed.

On that occasion, she also criticized Jiang Zijun in front of the local celebrities and elders and fellow villagers.

So, this grudge had already been formed.

But she thought, she had given birth to a little master after all, and no matter how cruel that woman was, could she really kill the powerless orphan and his widow?

Well, ever since she was beaten by Ning Jianren, she knew that it was worse to have no husband.

She locked herself in the side yard these days, and Jiang Yizhou seemed to have forgotten the existence of her and her son.

After a few days of stalemate, his mother Chen couldn't help but find Jiang Zijun in private and scolded her harshly, "I asked you to tell the head of the Jiang family to leave two days ago. Why haven't you gone yet? The Jiang family has changed. Now the head of the Jiang family has the final say. How long do you think you can hide here?"

"If you still want to live a stable life and want your child to grow up, your best option is to leave here and let her ignore his existence. Maybe he still has a chance of survival..."

Jiang Zijun was puzzled. "Why do you want to leave the Jiang family? I am a legitimate concubine. She didn't steal or rob. Is she going to search my house and accuse me of theft?"

When Chen heard her daughter's obviously sinister words, she pointed at her forehead and said angrily, "You are really confused. In this harem, a mistress wants to deal with a concubine. Does she need to use such low-class methods? There are many ways to make you wish you were dead or alive."

Jiang Zijun knew that what her mother said made sense, but she was still indignant: "At worst, we can just register the child under her name. Now she only has one son, and he is... Isn't this another hope for her? I think she should acknowledge Xiaobao's origin."

Before she could finish, Chen interrupted her and said, "You are just like your father. You look shrewd and calculating, and you think everyone in the world is stupid. Don't you think about it? Is the head of the Jiang family an ordinary woman? She had the opportunity to step on the son-in-law and punish those servants, but she didn't. She just wanted to get out of here. It was because she knew that she couldn't get rid of so many people at once, and she couldn't get rid of them thoroughly. They still have families and friends behind them. So she endured it for two years. This time she came back, you see, in just two days, she got rid of everyone here, including their families."

"Based on your character and means, Zijun, listen to your mother, give in, and then ask to leave. No matter what, your parents will support you and the child..."

Chen's words were sincere, and Jiang Zijun immediately shouted unwillingly, "It was Dad who told me to curry favor with Mr. Ning, and it was Dad who told me to give birth to a child as soon as possible to consolidate my position. He also said that if I didn't have one, he would not recognize me as his daughter. Mother, do you think my father would agree if I leave now, without a name or status, and become a burden to the family? And you, Dad has bought two concubines and they are both pregnant. They even said that you are old and ugly, and they will replace you as the legal wife sooner or later. Mother, do you think there will be a place for me if I return home like this?"

"Besides, no matter what, this child belongs to Master Ning, so he belongs to the Jiang family. As long as this child grows up, he will be eligible to inherit the Jiang family's property."

Chen was hit in the soft spot by her daughter, and she was so angry that her heart ached. She pointed at her daughter and said angrily, "You are so confused. This is different from the wives and concubines of ordinary families. In those families, the husband marries a wife and takes a concubine, so any man's seed is a member of the family and is eligible to inherit the family property. But your situation is completely different. That son-in-law... he is a son-in-law. If they are in love with each other, and the mistress has no children of her own and really wants one, she may raise the child her husband has with others as her own. But this son-in-law Ning... he and the head of the Jiang family have long been incompatible. How can she be willing to treat the child her husband has with others as her own?"

The mother and daughter were arguing fiercely when Jiang Mingcheng came and immediately scolded Mrs. Chen for her opinion.

With a righteous look, she said, "...No matter what Jiang Yizhou becomes, as the mistress of the family, she should maintain family harmony and work hard to make the family prosper. She only has one child left, and the family is small. Now someone is doing the work for her to enrich the Jiang family's descendants. She should regard me, Zijun, as a hero and take good care of her. And you, Aying, I'm not saying anything bad about you. I know you are not happy that I took a concubine, but you can't do those little tricks behind my back. They are pregnant with my own flesh and blood, that is, Zijun's biological brother. Don't you even have this little tolerance? If that's the case, I really misjudged you. In this case, you should go back and reflect on yourself..."

Chen originally wanted to advise her daughter to be prudent and protect herself, so that she would have no shortage of firewood to burn.

Unexpectedly, the daughter failed to convince him, but instead got herself involved.

She is really speechless now.

After she married Jiang Mingcheng, her family was poor at first, and she worked hard to support them. But even so, whenever there was a little surplus, he would go out and spend it on wine and women.

Later, because he got in touch with Ning Jianren, he became the store manager and simply kept a mistress outside.

Now we must decisively tear off the veil and bring the two women into the house.

Although she hated him in her heart, she knew that all this was Jiang Mingcheng's responsibility. So she felt from the bottom of her heart that there was no need for a woman to embarrass another woman.

However, she didn't expect that while she was still thinking that she would just let it go, those two women actually stabbed her in the back?

I was really heartbroken. I had given up on the man and felt that my kindness to those two concubines was in vain.

Chen left in despair, and Jiang Mingcheng gave Jiang Zijun another warning: "Remember, your first task now is to make Jiang Yizhou recognize Xiaobao's origin, even if it is registered under her name. If she wants to take him in and raise him by her side, it's up to her. Do you understand?"

Jiang Zijun nodded in agreement, then asked Wu Ma to keep an eye on the movements in the front yard. She wanted to find a suitable opportunity to confront Jiang Yizhou.

……

After Jiang Yizhou dealt with all the evildoers in the house, he quickly arranged his own people to move in and take over all the work in the house.

There were also Xiaoyu and Xiaoyi, who had helped the original owner in his previous life. At the beginning of this operation, Jiang Yizhou asked Wei Ke to take them aside.

After all the people in the house had left, the two maids were appointed to be the managers of the front and back yards respectively.

The newly bought maids and servants were handed over to them for management, and they were asked to clean the entire house inside and out.

Throw away what should be thrown away, and repair what should be repaired.

For example, in the front yard where Ning Jianren lived, all the used items, including clothes and bedding, were burned in a fire.

As for the tables, chairs and benches, they were all polished and painted before being given to the servants for use.
