Quick Wear: I Fulfill the Wish of Cannon Fodder

Chapter 311: The Concubine of Ninghua Marquis Mansion Turns Over

At this point, the old lady, who had been sitting in the hall, could no longer bear it. She was so angry that she was shaking all over. She pounded the ground with her cane and shouted, "Come here! Take this crazy woman to the woodshed! Send her to the ancestral temple tomorrow morning and announce to the public that the lady has committed a crime and has been divorced by the Marquis' Mansion. But my Mansion, considering her as the legitimate son's biological mother, will keep her in the ancestral temple to recuperate."

"Remember, you must not leak a single word about the Marquis's matter to anyone else, or you will be severely punished!"

In the eyes of the old lady, the reputation of the Marquis's Mansion is more important than life. She naturally would not send him back to his parents' home and tell them that her son could no longer inherit the family business.

Before he could finish his words, a group of strong servants rushed forward like wolves and tigers, grabbed Yi Qinghui's arms tightly, and dragged her out the door without mercy.

She struggled and cursed continuously until she was forcibly taken away from the lobby and peace was restored.

The next morning, Yunlin was about to go to the yard to practice martial arts with his master, but was summoned to his grandmother's yard by the maidservant beside his grandmother.

When Yunlin arrived at his grandmother's room, he saw her sitting upright in a chair, looking at him sternly. Before he could even open his mouth to greet her, she spoke directly, "Lin'er, I'm sure you've heard about what happened yesterday, haven't you?"

Yunlin's heart tightened, knowing that what his grandmother was referring to was what his mother had done. But possessing an adult soul, he remained remarkably calm. He nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

Then, Grandmother continued, "What do you think about this matter?" Yunlin took a deep breath and answered without hesitation, "Grandmother, I think Mother's actions are extremely vicious. She actually harmed Father's body for just two concubines. It's truly treasonous!"

Hearing Yunlin's response, a flicker of admiration flashed in Grandmother's eyes. She nodded and said slowly, "Well, that's what a legitimate son of our Marquisate should say. Even though you've lost your mother, I, Grandmother, will protect you for the rest of your life and ensure you inherit the Marquisate smoothly."

Yun Lin quickly knelt down and kowtowed, saying with tears of gratitude: "Thank you for your kindness, grandmother. I will definitely live up to your expectations." After seeing Madam Yun nod with satisfaction and give a positive assurance, Yun Lin's heart was finally at ease.

Yet, deep down, Yunlin couldn't understand why his wise and intelligent mother in his previous life had made such a foolish mistake. Was it really just because of those two concubines? Or was there something else going on? But none of that mattered now. The most important thing was to maintain his position as the legitimate son.

After all, there were only two young masters in the entire Marquisate. If Su Lan succeeded, Yun Hao would naturally become the eldest son. By then, how could the position of Crown Prince be passed to him, the second-in-command? Thinking of this, Yun Lin secretly made up his mind to get rid of Yun Hao and Su Lan no matter what.

Mother, I can only wait until my son takes the throne of the crown prince before I can bring you back. Yun Lin muttered this while looking at the sky, then went to practice martial arts with his servant, and he didn't even plan to see Yi Qinghui for the last time.

Su Lan did not comment on the male protagonist's behavior. He was selfish and hypocritical by nature. In the life he was reborn, he could have given up his glory and returned to Da Wu to save his mother and family, but he did not. He let hundreds of people in the marquis' mansion die and contributed a few drops of crocodile tears.

This makes Yi Qinghui's role as a mother both ridiculous and pathetic. The only son she had devoted her entire life to raising turned out to be an ungrateful person.

At this moment, Tuanzi in the system space excitedly rubbed his hands together like a restless little fly, and said impatiently: "Master Host, Yi Qinghui will be tied up and escorted to the ancestral temple soon! Should we take this opportunity to recreate the humiliation that the original owner suffered in her previous life? Hehehe..."

However, Su Lan shook her head without hesitation and replied firmly, "That's not necessary. You should discuss it with the client. If they just want me to get rid of Yi Qinghui once and for all, then that's fine. But if they want me to find a bunch of bandits to defile her first and then kill her, I really can't do that."

Although Su Lan is not a kind-hearted saint, she is also a woman. She is really disgusted by such shameless and vulgar behavior and is unwilling to do it.

"Okay, then I'll go discuss it with the original owner." Tuanzi is absolutely obedient to Su Lan as his host and will not try to persuade her to change her mind.

Su Lan didn't have to wait long before Tuanzi brought back good news. The original owner agreed with Su Lan's decision to give Yi Qinghui, the former master, a quick death.

Very good! While this matter is not urgent, we must first let the pampered and delicate Miss Yi experience firsthand what the hard and poor days of the ancestral temple are like, and let her repay the grievances her adopted son has suffered since childhood in the main courtyard.

Of course, the Yi family would not sit idly by and would definitely come to the door to ask for the truth. After all, this was their own daughter, how could she be divorced for no reason and sent to a place like the family temple to suffer?

However, every time the Yi family came to inquire, they were ruthlessly rebuked and driven away by Old Madam Yun. Because of the crimes Yi Qinghui had committed, Old Madam Yun had every right to punish her severely, even taking her life. She was sparing her life now purely for the sake of her precious grandson.

When the Yi family learned that Yi Qinghui had committed such a heinous and murderous act, they were terrified and silent, never daring to cause trouble again. They knew that if they continued to pester her, not only would they fail to save Yi Qinghui, but they would also cause their other unmarried daughters to find a suitable husband.

As a result, poor Yi Qinghui was completely forgotten by both families, like an abandoned chess piece. She could only stay alone in the family temple built deep in the mountains and start a new life.

Here, she had to get up early every morning, carry heavy buckets to the mountains to fetch water, and swing an axe to chop firewood for the fire. As for her daily diet, it was all coarse grains that she had never seen or eaten before.

Despite being in such a difficult and harsh environment, Yi Qinghui always hoped that her son would suddenly appear and save her from the dire situation. Unfortunately, her eager expectations day and night turned into nothing in the end.

At this moment, her biological son Yunlin was completely immersed in the world of fancy martial arts and couldn't extricate himself. He had long forgotten his biological mother!

Ever since the position of Marquis's wife became vacant, those ministers with keen sense of smell and good at scheming immediately sensed the huge potential benefits. They sent their wives to frequently visit Old Madam Yun, trying to obtain the coveted position of Marquis's wife for their beautiful daughters.

However, what these people did not expect was that Yun Xiao had already lost his fertility. This secret was like a deeply buried landmine. Once detonated, it would cause an uproar and make the entire mansion a laughing stock.

Faced with such a difficult situation, the old lady naturally did not dare to easily decide on a wife for her son, for fear that if she was not careful, the unspeakable scandal of the Marquis' Mansion would be exposed.

After careful consideration, the old lady finally decided to discuss with Yun Xiao and promote the previously neglected Concubine Su as the new mistress of the Marquis's residence. There were two reasons for this: first, Concubine Su already had a son, making her a meritorious official of the Marquis's residence, thus protecting the residence from criticism; second, this move would cleverly cover up the scandal of Yun Xiao's infertility and maintain the reputation of the Marquis's residence.

Ever since he learned that he could no longer father children with another woman, Yun Xiao had seemingly lost all interest in his two beautiful concubines. He remained sullen and sullen, rarely setting foot in the once joyful Green Rose Courtyard. He acted indifferent to every decision his mother made, supporting them without a care in the world.

However, when the news of Su Lan's imminent promotion spread, the entire mansion was in an uproar, and Yun Lin's reaction was the most intense.

In his opinion, the position of the Crown Prince, which was originally a foregone conclusion, should have belonged to him, but he had to watch helplessly as it fell into the hands of Yun Hao, the son of a lowly maid! This was simply a great shame and humiliation!

In a rage, Yunlin rushed to the old lady's yard regardless of everything, crying and making a fuss, vowing to seek justice for himself.

"Grandma, didn't you promise your grandson the position of Crown Prince? How can you let Aunt Su become father's legal wife?" Yunlin, who was only six years old, had tear marks on his chubby, pink face. He was sobbing like a pitiful little rabbit, which made people feel distressed.

Madam Yun quickly stretched out her arms, hugged her little grandson tightly, and coaxed him softly, "Oh, my dear grandson, don't cry yourself sick, my darling! I'm only letting Su Lan take the position of Marquis's wife temporarily. As for the throne of the Crown Prince, it will never be her son's turn. You can put your mind at ease."

Hearing his grandmother's assurance, Yunlin blinked his big watery eyes and asked with a slightly nasal tone, "Really? Grandma, you can't lie to your grandson!" After that, he didn't forget to rub against his grandmother's arms and act coquettishly.

Although Yun Lin has an adult soul hidden inside his body, he is used to using his child's body to act coquettishly with his grandmother who loves him so much.
