I just want to rob you of your luck

Lin Jiuer did not show up during the days when the funeral was held, but she asked A Kuan and A Gui to keep an eye on Zhou and Deng's every move.

She knew that people could do anything when pushed into a corner, not to mention that Zhou's son, whom she had loved for many years, had lost.

Lin Jiuer would never allow Zhou to do anything dangerous in the Marquis' Mansion. After all, this was her home now.

However, unexpectedly, Zhou and Deng had no intention of causing trouble. They stayed in the mourning hall every day and accompanied Jiang Hai through his last few days.

Until the ashes were sent for funeral, Zhou showed no signs of causing trouble.

If you don’t break out in silence, you will perish in silence.

Lin Jiuer instructed Butler Tian to have the guards in the mansion strengthen security, and at the same time asked the people in the farm to keep a close eye on Zhou.

She had a feeling that Zhou would definitely take action in the near future.

Sure enough, after Zhou and Deng buried Jiang Hai, they were sent back to the farm.

Two days later, the person who was following Zhuangzi brought a message.

The man named Ding Tao secretly went to the farm at night and conspired with Zhou to burn down the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion.

If this succeeds, she can not only kill Jiang Cheng and Lin Jiuer, but also avenge her son.

Moreover, from now on, she would be the only mistress in charge of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion. She would become the only person in power in the mansion, and she also informed Deng of this matter.

Deng's husband died young and her mother-in-law was out of favor. Her life was hopeless. When she heard about Zhou's plan, she was both scared and excited.

At her age, when it was time to work hard, she agreed to Zhou's plan on impulse.

She also asked someone to notify the confidant she had left behind to guard the Prince's courtyard to work together with Ding Tao.

On a dark and windy night, the back door of the marquis's mansion was quietly opened.

A dark figure quietly entered the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion carrying two barrels of tung oil.

The person who met them helped to get a bucket of tung oil, and the two of them followed the wall to avoid the patrolling guards.

Found it near the main courtyard.

The two men were quite vigilant. After looking around and making sure there was nothing unusual, they carried the tung oil into the main courtyard.

It was already past midnight, the lights in the main courtyard house had been turned off, and the owner had apparently fallen asleep.

There was only a lantern lit in front of the main house door. The dim light was swaying, making it look quiet and eerie in the dark night.

The two men were relieved and thought everything would go smoothly. They planned to pour tung oil around the main house and then set it on fire.

Just as they reached the door of the main house, the lights in the house suddenly came on and countless torches lit up in the yard.

The entire main courtyard was lit up as bright as day. The two men were so frightened that they dropped the oil barrel and tried to run away.

However, the two men had been surrounded by the ambushed guards and could not escape even if they had wings.

Jiang Cheng walked out with a cold face, followed by Lin Jiuer. He looked at the two of them and sneered.

"Ding Tao, how dare you come to my Dingyuan Marquis's Mansion? And you, I remember you were the dowry servant of the Crown Prince's wife. You are a traitor. Who gave you the guts to set fire to the Marquis's Mansion?"

Ding Tao knew he was finished, but he just frowned and remained silent.

"You won't tell me, but I know who ordered you to come here. I just want to give you a chance to tell me yourself."

Both of them were very scared. Ding Tao had worked as a steward in the Marquis' Mansion for many years, so he naturally knew the reputation of Marquis Dingyuan. He was known for his ruthlessness towards his enemies on the battlefield.

Jiang Cheng turned to Lin Jiuer and said, "Jiuer, go back and rest first. I will interrogate them myself."

Lin Jiuer returned to the house obediently, and the scenes that followed would definitely be bloody.

Jiang Cheng asked the guards to take the two of them to a side courtyard.

Lin Jiuer knew that Zhou and Deng were completely finished this time. She told Jiang Cheng that someone from the farm had reported that Zhou wanted to burn down Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, but Jiang Cheng was still a little bit unconvinced.

But he thought that it was indeed a bit abnormal that Zhou had remained silent at the prince's funeral.

Now that Jiuer is pregnant, he naturally cannot let anything happen to the Marquis' Mansion. Any risk must be nipped in the bud.

He assigned more people to patrol and arranged for people to ambush in the main courtyard every night.

Unexpectedly, two arsonists showed up.

Lin Jiuer was in a good mood and fell asleep immediately.

The next day, she heard Qiao'er talk about the interrogation conducted by the Marquis last night.

The servant of the Crown Prince's Concubine gave him away after being tortured severely.

Ding Tao is a tough nut to crack, but Lin Jiuer had already connected the secret agent in the manor to the Marquis' Mansion.

Jiang Cheng went to the farm overnight to confront Zhou. Zhou decided to throw in the towel and directly admitted that she had an affair with Ding Tao, which made Jiang Cheng very angry.

He also wrote a letter of divorce to Zhou in person.

On behalf of the Marquis's Mansion, he also wrote a letter of divorce to Deng on behalf of his son Jiang Hai.

This time he was soft-hearted and did not send Zhou and Deng to the government, but only sent Ding Hai to the Dali Temple.

The boy couldn't stand the torture and died last night.

Jiangcheng allowed Zhou and Deng to take their dowries away.

Although the two of them came back in a mess to get their dowry, they were glad in their hearts that Jiang Cheng was kind enough not to kill them directly.

When Zhou saw Lin Jiuer again at Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, she felt mixed emotions, but she still couldn't hide the hatred in her eyes.

All his bad luck started when Jiang Cheng married Lin Jiuer.

She would never believe it if someone said that Lin Jiuer had not instigated these things.

"Lin Jiuer, no, I should call you He Wanqing now, right? Are you proud now? You have done so many evil things, aren't you afraid of retribution?"

Lin Jiuer was supported by Yu'er. The servant beside her put down a soft chair. Lin Jiuer sat down and said calmly:

"You also know that doing evil things will bring retribution, right? It seems that it has come true in your case."

Zhou really couldn't understand. She was indeed not nice to her servants in the past, but she only beat and scolded Lin Jiuer occasionally. Why would Lin Jiuer want to harm her to such an extent?

"Lin Jiuer, I have raised you and I am a bit strict with you, but we don't have any deep hatred. Why do you have to take revenge on me like this?"

Lin Jiuer chuckled: "Maybe you owed me in your previous life?"

In broad daylight, Zhou and Deng felt a chill all over their bodies when they saw Lin Jiuer's smile.

Zhou stopped talking and directed her maids and servants to quickly pack up her dowry, intending to leave the mansion as soon as possible.

This place where she had lived for more than 20 years no longer had anything worth her staying for.

Deng also planned to pack up her things and move into a small house that she had brought as a dowry. If her parents knew what she had done, they would definitely not acknowledge her as their daughter anymore.

Lin Jiuer looked at the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law with a faint expression. She did not have the habit of kicking a man when he was down.

Mainly because she didn't want to get her hands dirty. Last night she checked the progress of the system task and it had reached 80%.

Zhou's luck has run out, but he still needs a little help to complete the task.

She had instructed A Kuan to go to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion early in the morning to deliver a message to her brother, the eldest son.

I believe he will help me solve everything.

These past few days, Jiang Cheng went to the study to rest at night. Lin Jiuer knew that recent events had dealt him a heavy blow.

She just quietly prepared a plate of butterfly cakes for his study every day to let him know that she always cared about him.

Three days later, Qiao'er said to Lin Jiu'er excitedly, "Master, I heard that Zhou and Deng died by burning charcoal in their own house, and they left a suicide note.

It says that he committed an unforgivable crime against the Marquis' Mansion and was too ashamed to live in this world, so he chose to commit suicide to atone for his crime."
