Marrying Wife and Concubine Together: After Rebirth, I Remarried the Scumbag's Father on the Sp

Madam Xiao quickly got up from the ground: "What's the matter? Are you still trying to get on with my son? I'm warning you, if you keep pestering me, I'll strip you naked and throw you on the street for everyone to see what kind of person you are!"

Ye Ling was immediately frightened, because she knew that Madam Xiao would keep her word.

She gritted her teeth, hesitated for a moment, and then bowed: "Ling'er, take your leave!"

After saying that, she turned and left quickly.

Before her figure disappeared, Madam Xiao shouted, "Come here, clean up the surrounding area quickly. It's soaked with dirt and even the air stinks!"

Ye Ling stumbled, clenched her fists, and quickened her pace to run.

After Xiao Rui changed his clothes and tidied himself up, he invited Lin Yiwan to the teahouse.

He frowned and said, "I don't know the person well enough, I'm sorry to make the Marquis laugh at me!"

Lin Yiwan shook her head: "This is not a joke. The Right Prime Minister was just deceived by her appearance!"

Xiao Rui's expression suddenly became a little ugly and complicated. He couldn't help but think to himself, why don't you just say that I'm blind?

Lin Ruoyu subconsciously raised her chin and gave him a questioning look, which clearly meant, aren't you?

Xiao Rui coughed awkwardly, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly spoke: "I wonder what the Marquis's intention is?"

Lin Yiwan answered without hesitation: "I want to ask the right prime minister to be Mr. Wen of the charity hall!"

Xiao Rui was stunned: "The charity you are talking about is the place where orphans are adopted in the suburbs of Beijing?"

Lin Yiwan nodded: "Yes!"

Xiao Rui shook his head. "I'm sorry, but I can't obey your order. It's not that I look down on those orphans, but how can they study seriously when they can't even afford food and clothing?"

Lin Yiwan guessed that he would definitely refuse. After all, he was the president of the Imperial College and the teacher of noble sons from aristocratic families. How could he teach those orphans?

She said softly, "Prime Minister Xiao, no one is born rich. Even the aristocratic families in the capital have accumulated wealth through generations. Why can't you give those orphans a chance?"

Xiao Rui sighed helplessly, "Madam Hou, you are too fanciful. Those orphans have no foundation, and they have been accustomed to being undisciplined for a long time. They simply cannot bear the hardship of learning!"

Lin Yiwan spoke without hesitation: "How do you know they don't have a foundation if you don't try? Xiao Youxiang, don't you want to do something that will be remembered by the world? It's your duty to teach those noble children to become talents, but teaching orphans to become talents is an achievement!"

Just one sentence made Xiao Rui's heart beat like thunder.

Lin Yiwan was right. If he could really help those orphans achieve something, then he would not only be the mentor of the sons of rich and powerful families, but those students from poor families would also respect him very much.

Thinking of this, he felt a little relieved.

After thinking for a moment, he slowly said, "Before agreeing to be the head of the charity, I need to test the aptitude of those children. If they are stupid, I will definitely not be able to teach them!"

Lin Yiwan immediately stood up and said, "Okay, they can't handle the advanced knowledge, but they can handle the simple things. Don't worry about that!"

Xiao Rui nodded: "Then let's set it for three days later. I will bring a few students with me then!"

Lin Yiwan didn't refuse, she stood up and walked out quickly.

She had to ask Qiu Tang to prepare quickly so as not to be caught off guard.

Just as she reached the door, she saw Old Madam Xiao catching up with her.

She shouted anxiously: "Madam Hou, please stay!"

Lin Yiwan asked suspiciously, "Old Madam, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Madam Xiao took a few breaths anxiously and said, "Daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law!"

Lin Yiwan's eyes widened instantly. What?

What's the point of catching her calling me daughter-in-law? But don't let her jealous family hear it.

She subconsciously turned her head to look around, and after confirming that Zhan Yan was not around, she grabbed the old lady's arm and said, "Old lady, please don't yell. I'm the Marquis' wife, how can I be your daughter-in-law?"

Madam Xiao finally caught her breath. She laughed and slapped her mouth: "Look at me, I can't even speak clearly. What I mean is, you owe me a daughter-in-law!"

Lin Yiwan turned and left: "Old Madam, this is not okay. I helped you expose Ye Ling's true face, but instead of thanking you, you're still relying on me?"

Madam Xiao quickly grabbed her wrist and said, "Wanwan, don't be like this. I'm not relying on you. I'm hoping you can help me introduce someone. My son is always stubborn, and I've been trapped in the backyard for years. I can't judge people well, so I can only ask you for help!"

Lin Yiwan's expression softened and she said, "It's not that I can't help you with your divination, but you also have to help me persuade him to become a literary scholar at the charity hall!"

Madam Xiao squinted her eyes and smiled: "Don't worry, I have been to the charity hall to give out porridge before, and I think those children are very smart. If they are taught well, they will definitely become talents!"

Lin Yiwan raised her eyebrows. "Really? You think so too? I told you their future is immeasurable. They will definitely be the backbone of the Sheng Dynasty in the future!"

The two had a pleasant conversation and after making an agreement, they said goodbye.

At this time, Mrs. Du from the Huaiyang Marquis's Mansion had a face so gloomy that water could drip from it. She had not expected that Ye Ling would be driven out of the Xiao Mansion in disgrace.

She angrily questioned, "Didn't you promise that you could take Xiao Rui down? Why did something unexpected happen?"

Ye Ling was so annoyed. She didn't know that a marquis' wife would appear out of nowhere.

What he didn't expect was that Madam Xiao was so soft-hearted that she was bewitched by her in just a few words.

She gritted her teeth and said, "Even you can't do anything to Zhan Yihou Mansion, what can I do?"

Madam Du Hou took a deep breath and said, "No, since we can't enter the Xiao family, then we can enter the Zhan family. Let's go and see Concubine De immediately and ask her to ask the emperor to grant Zhan Yan a marriage!"

Ye Ling immediately shook his head: "No, the marks on my body haven't disappeared yet. If she points them out in front of everyone, won't I be finished?"

Madam Du Hou glared at her in dissatisfaction: "If you had seduced Zhan Yan on his way back to the capital, why would you have gone through so much trouble now?"

Ye Ling also felt aggrieved and uncomfortable. She thought she was no worse than Lin Yiwan, so why couldn't she catch Zhan Yan's eye?

She couldn't help but ask: "Should I try again?"

Mrs. Du Hou asked in surprise, "What are you going to do next?"

Ye Ling clenched her fists tightly, she wanted to ask for help from Concubine De.

The next day, Zhan Yan was invited to the palace by Emperor Sheng An.

However, when he was heading to the imperial study, the palace servant told him that the emperor had gone to Concubine De's palace and asked him to go there to meet him.

Although he was somewhat reluctant, he had no choice but to go.

When passing by the Imperial Garden, I heard a splashing sound coming from the lotus pond.

Then a young palace maid ran over and said, "Marquis Zhan Yi, please go and save Miss Sang quickly. She went to the palace to pay her respects to Consort De and accidentally fell into the water!"
