My bad father abandoned me, so I turned around and killed him

Wen Yufei took the silver and left with his brothers.

He does have the ability to get things done, and there are connections between beggars.

It is impossible for just a few of them to spread the news throughout the capital overnight.

But he can find other people to cooperate with!

There are tens of thousands of beggars throughout the capital.

The emperor's feet are indeed prosperous, with countless dignitaries, but there are even more ordinary people and beggars who make a living by begging.

Because there are endless possibilities in the capital.

The casual rewards given by these dignitaries may be much more than what they earn through hard work.

Lin Yaoyao completed the task and was in a very happy mood. She strolled outside for a while before slowly returning to the Marquis' Mansion.

When she returned, the atmosphere in the Marquis' Mansion was very bad.

Why is it bad?

Because Qu Manrong believed her nonsense and really thought that her man had some unclear relationship with his adopted daughter.

Therefore, after scolding the two of them, she packed up her things and went back to her parents' home.

There was no chance for them to explain.

Qu Manrong really left very thoroughly, and she almost emptied the entire mansion.

Lin Yaoyao: No? What’s going on with this family? Has it been robbed?

Otherwise, why is it that Lin Zhengfeng is so reluctant to bring his old lover back?

It’s all because of the entire Lin family. Apart from the empty title of Marquis, the Marquis’ Mansion is almost an empty shell.

The real title of Marquis did not belong to Lin Zhengfeng, but to the old lady of the Marquis's mansion's biological son, his elder brother Lin Zhengping.

That was a title that was won through actual combat.

It’s a pity that talented people are envied by God!

On his way back to the capital, Lin Zhengping was hit by falling rocks while trying to rescue civilians buried in a landslide.

He should have returned to Beijing to be promoted to a higher position, but he ended up dying in a foreign land, with even his body not even intact.

In order to express his gratitude for his sincerity, the emperor did not revoke the Lin family's title.

In the end, it was Lin Zhengfeng, the only remaining male in the Lin family and a mediocre bastard, who picked up a ready-made one.

How could the old lady be willing to accept this?

Obviously, all these should belong to his son, but because of an accident, they were given to a bastard who had no feelings for him.

Qu Manrong was the daughter-in-law she personally selected.

The reason is simple. The Qu family is just a wealthy merchant family. Among the four classes of scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans, the status of the Qu family in Fengyin Country is not high.

Such a bastard's wife is easy to control.

Lin Zhengping was still very young when he died. He was not keen on matters between men and women, and even refused the concubine arranged by the old lady.

In the end, he didn't even have any offspring.

The old lady didn't want her son to lose his family line.

Before Qu Manrong came into the family, she had already made a plan to adopt her first son as her own son.

If the status of the woman's family is too high, it will be difficult to control such a concubine's daughter-in-law, and adopting a child will not be realistic.

The Qu family is just right.

Back then, the old lady came in person to propose marriage for Lin Zhengfeng. After the Qu family learned about the target, they agreed without a second thought.

Under the arrangement of the old lady, Qu Manrong also met Lin Zhengfeng in advance.

I have to admit that Lin Zhengfeng does look good.

It can be said that Qu Manrong fell in love with him at first sight, so she naturally agreed to the marriage.

But Qu Manrong’s pregnancy was not going well. After all these years of marriage, she only gave birth to a daughter.

The old lady was not a foolish person, and she would not ask Lin Zhengfeng to divorce his wife and remarry for the sake of her own son's incense.

She just wanted her son to have a descendant.

Therefore, she found a concubine for Lin Zhengfeng, who was also of low status and was her own maid.

This concubine was quite capable. She became pregnant just one month after she was brought into the house.

It was the grandson that the old lady had been thinking about all the time.

Because she was the chosen ancestor and heir for her son, after the illegitimate child was born, the old lady took the mother and son to her side.

The concubine volunteered to become Lin Zhengfeng's concubine in order to repay the old lady's kindness.

When the old lady suggested taking her back to her hometown, she agreed without thinking.

She doesn't have to serve the mistress and can still accompany her son. Why wouldn't she want to do such a good thing?

What's more, the old lady had already made it clear to her that the entire mansion would belong to her son in the future.

Compared with his son's future, what does a man's favor mean?

Even though Lin Zhengfeng knew the old lady's plan, he didn't dare to say "no".

He is self-aware.

Apart from being a little luckier, he really has nothing.

Even if he wanted to do everything for his old lover, as long as the old lady was alive, he would not be the master of this mansion.

The son of his sweetheart will never become the prince of a marquisate.

Back then, apart from the title he received, all the rewards given by the emperor were taken back to his hometown by the old lady.

Including the imperial edict conferring the title.

Lin Zhengfeng's aunt was just a girl from an ordinary family. She didn't even have a dowry, so there was very little left for him.

He agreed to marry Qu Manrong not only because she was good-looking, but also because the dowry given by the Qu family was really large.

He once had conflicts with Qu Manrong over a woman, but after discovering that the old lady would only stand on Qu Manrong's side from beginning to end, he completely gave up the idea.

He didn't dare mention the matter of bringing his sweetheart into the house again.

The woman outside was indeed his favorite, but her status was not worthy of being mentioned in public.

Lin Zhengfeng knew very well that the Lin family would never agree to let such a woman in.

Because that woman is a whore!

The old lady would never allow a woman like that to come in, as it would insult the Lin family's tradition and bring disgrace to the Lin family.

In order to prevent his beloved from suffering any grievances, he had no choice but to hide his beauty in a luxurious house and keep her in a mansion outside.

The old lady might not be unaware of all this.

But she looked down on that woman, and naturally looked down on the child she gave birth to.

Even if the woman gave birth to a son as her first child, she would never think of adopting her son to Lin Zhengping.

She doesn't deserve it!

The son she gave birth to is not worthy of him!

In order to make his beloved's child live a good life, Lin Zhengfeng came up with an idea - to exchange the child!

However, even a tiger will not eat its own cubs, but Lin Zhengfeng and his mistress were so vicious that they directly wanted to take the original owner's life.

If the original owner had not been so lucky and had not met her adoptive parents, would Lin Zirou be occupying all of this with a clear conscience now?

If the old lady had stayed in the Marquis' Mansion, Lin Zhengfeng might not have succeeded.

It’s a pity that she didn’t want to see others enjoying the rich and prosperous life that her son fought for with his life after his death.

So she chose to return to her hometown, the place where she had memories of her son.

As for the marriage that Lin Zirou mentioned, it was a marriage that the old lady gave to Qu Manrong's daughter as compensation without knowing about the child exchange.
