Your scumbag application has been returned

"What do you think General Chen means by this?"

Someone couldn't help but lower his voice and spoke, his eyes always looking towards Chen Yuenian, afraid that he would miss any details.

"I don't know, but these return gifts are enough. How can ordinary people have so much?"

Someone lit up, "I roughly counted it, and it seems to be four times the dowry of General Chen's husband. That's indeed a lot."

Someone immediately exclaimed, "Four times! Considering the modest dowry that General Chen's wife had when she got married, this return gift is indeed quite a lot."

"In other words, General Chen just wants us to know that he has the ability to make his husband's life better, thanks to Madam Nan's previous upbringing?"

"It's possible. With what Madam Nan did, I think it doesn't matter if you don't return the gift. General Chen has done his best."

"Hey, hey, hey, look, General Chen is speaking."

Chen Yuenian held Nanyuan's hand, and without going up the steps at the door, he shouted loudly inside: "Mother, I am bringing Nanyuan home today. Since you have something important to do and it is not convenient for you to entertain me, I and Nanyuan will not disturb you for now. I and Nanyuan are here to greet you."

The onlookers looked at each other in bewilderment. They had thought that Chen Yuenian would wait at the door until Madam Nan opened the door for them, or at least have someone pass the message. But he just left straight away. They made a whole morning of noise and didn't even have time to drink a sip of water.

They talked until their mouths were dry and they couldn't even drink water.

Everyone present saw Chen Yuenian's sincerity, and it was Mrs. Nan who didn't appreciate it.

In other words, Lord Nan was still attending the morning court and was unaware of this matter, otherwise he would not have prevented Chen Yuenian from even entering the door.

After shouting, Chen Yuenian bowed three times earnestly to the closed door, then took Nan Yuan's hand and went back.

Are you going back now?

I really went back.

I didn't even want to stay a little longer.

Mr. Chen, who was driving the carriage, drove very fast, and in a moment the carriage disappeared from everyone's sight. Only twenty boxes of return gifts were left at the gate of Nan Mansion.

The guards of the Nan family didn’t know whether to move in or not, as they would die either way.

"Leaving now?"

The way things turned out was completely beyond their expectations.

"If you don't leave, are you going to stay and eat? It's obvious that there's no rice for them."

"This, in all my years of life, is the first time I've seen someone unable to even get through the door. Madam Nan is really going too far."

"That's right. General Chen's husband did nothing wrong from beginning to end. The only mistake he made was that he was reborn into the Nan family. He is such a pitiful man. Now he can't even go back to his parents' home. From now on, the Nan family will have nothing to do with him."

"If I had a mother like this, my life would be worse than death, worse than pigs and dogs."

"Hey, you all know about the Nan family's daughter being beaten a few days ago. Now it seems that she deserves it. Madam Nan is domineering and overbearing, and the Nan family's eldest daughter has learned from her to the fullest, offending people everywhere. No wonder someone came to seek revenge."

"Do you think Lord Nan is a good man? Compared to our Lord Chen, he is not even a hair better. Lord Chen is a good official who serves the country and the people. Lord Nan has done nothing for us except fawning on His Majesty every day."

"Humph, if the top beam is not straight, the bottom beam will be crooked. It was such a pity that Miss Jinyu married Lord Nan back then."

Miss Jinyu is Nan Yuan's mother. She suddenly appeared in Shengdu, covered in blood, and was picked up by the dean of the girls' academy. No one knew where her home was, and no one knew her name. After she recovered from her injuries, she worked as a teacher in the girls' school.

All we know is that her body was as white and smooth as jade, and her face was so beautiful that it was more beautiful than flowers, so everyone called her Miss Jinyu. Later, because her face was too conspicuous, she wore a veil all day long, revealing her bright eyes.

Miss Jinyu lived and ate in the academy. Occasionally, she could be seen standing at the door to see students off, or occasionally going on outings with other female teachers. She was proficient in reciting poems, composing couplets, playing the musical instrument, chess, calligraphy and painting.

She can sell a painting or calligraphy at a sky-high price just for collection.

The chances to see Miss Jinyu are extremely rare, but even so, it is enough to make the men of Shengdu never forget her.

At that time, everyone fantasized that if they could marry Miss Jinyu, they would be willing to even have their ancestral graves struck by lightning.

But it was still Nanda who picked this delicate flower.

There aren't many people who know about this, but we are all normal people and can guess what happened.

That day, Miss Jinyu jumped into the Bicui Lake and committed suicide. It happened that the academy organized an outing at Bicui Lake that day. Just as Miss Jinyu jumped into the lake, people from the academy arrived and rescued her.

Bicui Lake is deep and famous for its emerald green water. It would be difficult for people to notice if they fell into it, so many people choose Bicui Lake.

The people who rescued her asked her why she jumped into the lake. Miss Jinyu just covered her face and cried without saying a word. However, because of jumping into the lake, her clothes were disheveled, revealing some bruises on her body.

They read the books of sages and philosophers, so they knew something. Miss Jinyu, who made every man fall in love with her, was actually ruined by a wild man!

Everyone in the academy felt sorry for Miss Jinyu and did not tell anyone about this, thus saving her face.

Later, news came out that Lord Nan had married Miss Jinyu as his concubine.

They also realized that the one who raped Miss Jinyu was Lord Nan, who had just got married not long ago. They all looked down on Lord Nan. Even though he was now the prime minister, he was still a scum.

It's a pity for their Miss Jinyu, she has an extraordinary demeanor, her words and actions are graceful and elegant, and she is obviously a lady from a wealthy family, but her family fell into poverty and she has ended up wandering here.

Inside the carriage.

Nan Yuan also didn’t understand Chen Yuenian’s operations.

"If you just shout a few times, will we just pretend that you're back?" Nan Yuan was even prepared for a fierce battle. Although Madam Nan, the old witch, was scary, he had to overcome her by himself. He couldn't always rely on Chen Yuenian. There would always be a time when Chen Yuenian was not around.

He thought Chen Yuenian was joking when he said “It’s ok if you’re here”, and the normal routine shouldn’t be “Since you’re here, you’re here”.

Chen Yuenian raised his eyebrows, "What else do you want? Beg her to let us in? We are here to perform, and we will leave after we have performed the full act. If you want to stay for dinner, I will not stop you."

Nan Yuan was furious: "I don't want it!"

"By the way, how much do you know about your mother?" Nan Yuan's mother has always been a legend. Chen Yuenian was too young at that time and had heard some rumors, but it has been a long time and he doesn't remember much now.

Nan Yuan, who traveled through time, knew even less about Miss Jin Yu, and all he knew came from the memories of the original owner.

"Not much. I just know that she was very beautiful, and Madam Nan was very jealous of her and hated her to death. In the end, she did kill her. There is not even a portrait of her in the mansion."

"I occasionally hear servants in the mansion talking about her in secret. If Madam Nan hears them, she will sell them out. So few people dare to discuss it. Only Nan Shu will call her a bitch when she gets angry."
