Quickly Transmigrate to Save the Child of Heaven

When Lin Ruhai learned the truth, he felt a stifling pain, as if a knife were twisting his heart. His eyes widened, filled with anger and disbelief. He had never imagined that the wet nurse, once considered his wife's confidant, could treat her so cruelly, even implicating their daughter, Daiyu.

He immediately summoned his family's trusted aides and ordered the arrest of Nanny, who was then interrogated. When Nanny was brought before Lin Ruhai, her face was as pale as paper, and a hint of fear lingered in her eyes. However, she still tried to deny the charges, claiming she was innocent.

"Tell me! Who instructed you to do this?" Lin Ruhai's voice was cold and majestic, making people shudder.

The wet nurse's lips trembled, but she ultimately confessed her guilt under Lin Ruhai's harsh questioning. It turned out she had been instructed by the Jia family to attack Lin Ruhai's wife. To ensure the Lin family's wealth was left without an heir, the Jia family deliberately gave Lin Ruhai's wife a sterilizing drug after she gave birth to Daiyu, rendering her unable to conceive again. As for Jia Min's death, it wasn't her fault, nor was it her who poisoned Lin Ruhai. So who administered the chronic poison to Jia Min and Lin Ruhai? It all became a mystery.

Even so, Lin Ruhai remained overcome with grief and indignation, determined to seek justice for his wife and daughter. He resolutely handed his wet nurse over to the authorities for legal action. He also wrote a letter to the Jia family, detailing everything that had happened. From then on, the Lin and Jia families ceased contact. While he could let bygones be bygones, he made it clear that from now on, neither Lin Daiyu nor he would share the same closeness with the Jia family. Furthermore, he resolved to thoroughly investigate the poison he had taken and the cause of his wife's death, leaving no clues unturned.

After these actions, the number of servants in the Lin Mansion was significantly reduced. Lin Daiyu purchased a new batch of slaves from the pawnbrokers and affixed loyalty charms to them. The Lin Mansion was now impregnable. Despite her mother's passing and the loss of its mistress, everything remained in good order under Lin Daiyu's meticulous management.

In the early morning, sunlight streamed through the window into the room. Daiyu sat at her dressing table, carefully combing her hair. Her eyes were focused and gentle, as if she were lost in thought. Suddenly, a housekeeper hurried into the room and announced that someone from her grandmother's family had come to pick her up.

Upon hearing this news, Daiyu's face darkened. Her hand, gripping the comb, trembled slightly, and a flicker of anger and disappointment flashed in her eyes. Without hesitation, she ordered the housekeeper to send the people away and tell them not to visit again. She also instructed the housekeeper to convey to the Jia family that they should not bother her again.

The housekeeper looked at Daiyu's resolute expression and couldn't help but feel a surge of admiration in his heart. He knew that Daiyu had a strong character and would not easily change her mind once she made up her mind. So, he respectfully accepted Daiyu's order and turned around to carry out his mission.

After the housekeeper left, Daiyu sat quietly by her dressing table, unable to calm down for a long time. She thought of all the things the Jia family had done to the Lin family, and her heart was filled with resentment and dissatisfaction.

Upon hearing the news, Jia Lian's face darkened, and he secretly wondered who had dared so boldly to offend the Jia family's son-in-law. He knew that if he angered the son-in-law, the Jia family would never again stand a chance before the emperor. Helpless, he led his men away in disgrace. Meanwhile, back at the Rongguo Mansion, the old lady smashed her bowl in anger, shouting, "A bunch of useless servants! You've been discovered!" In truth, if it weren't for the Rongguo Mansion's interests, she would never have considered drugging her own daughter. All of this was done to control Lin Ruhai. After all, he only had one daughter, and no one else could inherit the Lin family fortune. If Lin Daiyu married Jia Baoyu, wouldn't all the Lin family wealth pass into Baoyu's pocket? Alas... these servants, who were only capable of causing trouble but could only do more harm than good, were eventually exposed, infuriating the son-in-law. Now that Daiyu hadn't been brought to the mansion, she no longer had any leverage to control Lin Ruhai, and she feared he would marry someone else. In this way, all the old lady's careful planning will come to nothing. It seems that she can only wait for a few years for Daiyu to grow up and then find a suitable opportunity to match her with Baoyu.

However, Lin Daiyu was unaware of the old lady's thoughts. If she had known, she would have certainly mocked her mercilessly. After all, Jia Baoyu was neither good at literature nor martial arts, and he spent his days hanging out with the maids. How could she have been so confident that she would fall in love with such a man?
