Tragic death and rebirth, the daughter of a general poisoned the government and the country

For Lin Fang, a marriage with the Marquis of Ruchang was considered marrying above her station.

"Marriage is a big deal. It's decided by your parents and the matchmaker. Besides, you're marrying into a wealthy family. There's nothing to complain about."

The thin Lin Fang knelt on the ground like a rock. The Second Madam didn't expect that Lin Fang, who had always been obedient and had little sense of presence, actually had some temper.

But it’s better this way. If you marry into a wealthy family, you won’t be looked down upon by your in-laws.

After thinking for a moment, thinking that Lin Fang was marrying into the Marquis's Mansion, the Second Lady's tone slowed down a little.

"Although the Marquis's Mansion is a high-ranking family, you are also the daughter of the General's Mansion. You can't let others look down on you. I will prepare ten more dowries for you, and give you three shops and two farms."

The Second Lady's heart was bleeding. Originally, the dowry for a concubine's daughter was much less than that for a legitimate daughter. However, Madam Han relied on the fact that the General's Mansion was in the wrong and refused to allow the Mansion to reduce the dowry.

Now, in order to appease Lin Fang, the second wife had to take out more things. Taking into account the losses of the previous twenty shops, the foundation of the general's mansion was getting thinner and thinner.

As if she was finally persuaded, or as if she knew there was no room for maneuver in this marriage, Lin Fang kowtowed to the Second Madam as if she accepted her fate.

"Fang'er thanks mother."

Seeing that Lin Fang was finally persuaded, the Second Lady breathed a sigh of relief.

Only a marriage that is consensual can calm the anger of the Ruchang Marquisate. If Lin Fang marries with resentment, who knows what kind of trouble will arise...

Leave the Second Lady and return to your own room.

The solemn and sad expression on Lin Fang's face finally disappeared, and now Lin Fang put on a satisfied smile.

Who said she was not satisfied with this marriage? She was very satisfied!

She was just pretending today. First, she wanted to express her dissatisfaction. Otherwise, it would arouse the Second Madam's suspicion. Second, she wanted to take the opportunity to ask for more dowry. After all, after getting married, all the dowry would be in her hands.

For so many years, she and her aunt had been living in disgrace, enduring humiliation and contempt, and their lives were even worse than those of the maidservants around Lin Qingrou.

Now, she could actually marry into the Marquis's Mansion, which was something she had never dared to imagine before.

No matter how much of a bastard Han Xu is, it doesn't matter. What Lin Fang wants is a chance to turn things around, and being the wife of the second son of the Marquis's family is enough!

As long as Lin Fang can grab the favor of her parents-in-law, she will most likely become the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion!

Lin Fang's eyes flashed with dazzling light, and after a moment, the surging blood in her body slowly calmed down.

She carried a bowl of steaming black medicine soup into the inner room.

In the dim and dilapidated inner room, the furniture and mattresses were all in tatters, and the room was filled with a stuffy and musty smell.

On the dirty and messy bed, a woman with disheveled hair was sleeping hunched over and very unsteadily.

"Mom, it's time to take medicine."

Since she was a child, when no one was around, Lin Fang would affectionately call Aunt Qiao "Mother".

Aunt Qiao always refused, but Lin Fang was also a bit stubborn, so she called her that for many years.

The woman turned around and slowly sat up, but the act of getting up seemed to have exhausted all her strength and she began to gasp for air.

His dry hair hung down on his shoulders in a messy manner, and his face was dry and yellow, no longer showing the good looks of his youth.

Aunt Qiao held Lin Fang's hand and drank the inky black medicine mouthful by mouthful.

When the bowl of medicine was finished, Lin Fang picked up her handkerchief and carefully wiped the medicine residue from the corners of Aunt Qiao's mouth.

"Mom, my marriage is settled."

Aunt Qiao collapsed back on the bed and opened her eyes slightly.

"But he is the second son of the Marquis of Ruchang?"

Lin Fang was not surprised to hear this, as her aunt had always been wise.

If Aunt Qiao had not been of humble origin, in good health, and had not had the old lady watching over her in the mansion, the mistress of the general's mansion would have been replaced long ago.

"The eldest lady is indeed not an ordinary person. You should be more friendly with her in the future and never offend her."

Lin Fang nodded obediently, "Fang'er understands."

"I am useless and have not let you live a good life for so many years. Now that you can marry into the Marquis's Mansion, I am relieved..."

"Fang'er knows that if mother hadn't always protected me, I would have died at the hands of mother and second sister."

The Second Madam and Lin Qingrou could not tolerate illegitimate sons and daughters. Countless illegitimate sons and daughters, who had not yet been born or had just been born, died in their hands.

Apart from Aunt Chen, who was from the old lady's family and gave birth to Lin Zan, only Aunt Qiao gave birth to Lin Fang and was able to raise her.

"Unfortunately, mother cannot change your status as a concubine's daughter. You will have to walk the path of the Marquis' Mansion on your own in the future."

"How could it be me? Once I have established myself in the Marquis' Mansion, I will find a way to bring mother over. By then, mother's illness will surely be cured."

Aunt Qiao gave a relieved smile, with fine wrinkles spreading at the corners of her lips.

Lin Fang was slightly stunned. Her mother was getting older and older.

"You still have to embroider your wedding dress, go quickly, mother can sleep a little longer."

The old wooden door closed again with a creaky sound. After Lin Fang walked out, Aunt Qiao, who was sleeping on the bed, opened her eyes again.

Her eyes were no longer cloudy and lifeless. At this moment, her eyes were getting brighter and brighter, like a star in the dark night, suddenly emitting light when it passed through the sky.

With her dry hands, she lifted up a pile of tattered bedding and took out a bag of medicine residue from the innermost part, with a relieved smile on her skinny face.

"Finally, this day has come..."

-

The autumn wind blows, and the summer heat disappears.

Over the past month, the entire general's mansion has been busy preparing for the marriages of the three young ladies.

A few days ago, because Liu Mei was going to marry out of the General's Mansion, Duke Liu and his wife Lin Yazi came to the General's Mansion.

The old lady had not seen her daughter for many years, and she kept talking to Lin Yazi in Ci'an Hospital all day long.

"Miss, the old lady is going to host a family dinner for Duke Liu and his aunt today, so please go there early."

Lin Yushu kept flipping through the account book and just nodded, letting Cuizhu go down.

"Miss, before my aunt got married, she was arrogant and domineering in the mansion all day long. No one dared to tolerate her, and she didn't respect the lady very much..."

Lin Yushu shifted her gaze from the account book to Chuntao, who seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"This time Liu Mei's marriage is related to you, Miss. I'm afraid..."

Lin Yushu smiled gently, her beautiful eyes and eyebrows were lively and bright.

"What are you afraid of? She didn't like me and my mother back then. She either mocked us in front of us or insulted us behind our backs. But now I am the county lady, and she has no rank. If she offends me, I will let her know what respect and order are."

Chuntao finally felt relieved and quietly began to dress up Lin Yushu.

Lin Yushu let Chuntao tidy up for her and her mind returned to the account book in front of her.

Xiao Xiuyuan did not disappoint her expectations. Except for Shuyue Pavilion which had not yet opened, her poison shop and nine other shops were all doing booming business.

Lin Yushu now has an income of more than one hundred taels a day. She is no longer a poor young lady trapped in the villa in Qingshan County and having to eat bran and drink thin water.

But it’s the wealthy lady Princess Shuyi!

"Miss, the guard at the gate of the mansion reports that there is a girl looking for you."

Lin Yushu stood up instantly, feeling extremely happy.

She's finally here!
