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

Zhan Yan immediately spoke up: "I heard it, why would she burn you on purpose?"

Madam Zhan glared angrily: "If you don't believe me, go test the water temperature yourself and see if it's really hot!"

Zhan Yan walked over quickly and reached in to try.

He frowned and turned his head. "Mother, the water temperature is a little cooler now, which means it was just right before I came. Since you asked Yi Wan to take care of you, you can't wrongly accuse her!"

A trace of guilt flashed across Madam Zhan's face. She had not originally intended to get entangled with Lin Yiwan on this matter. Her most important goal was to lure the tiger away from the mountain.

She kept looking towards the door, hoping Zhan Yu would come back soon.

Soon, a burst of complex footsteps was heard in the yard, and then Zhan Yu led a Taoist priest into the house.

When he saw Zhan Yan, he quickly bowed respectfully: "Son greets father, mother, mother!"

Her tone was a little slow, and it was obvious that she was not used to calling Lin Yiwan mother.

The moment she saw the Taoist priest, Lin Yiwan's heart suddenly trembled.

She suddenly realized that the intention to serve her was fake, but the intention to plot against her was real. She was afraid that someone must have put something unclean into her yard.

She must find it out as soon as possible, otherwise she will be caught and led around by the nose.

Without hesitation, she subconsciously walked up to Zhan Yan and scratched his palm.

He raised his eyebrows in surprise and asked her what was wrong with his eyes.

Lin Yiwan put her hand on her forehead and said, "Husband, I'm feeling a little unwell. Can I go to the yard to get some fresh air?"

Zhan Yan didn't doubt him and immediately agreed: "Okay, you go out first, I'll stay here with mother for a while!"

Madam Zhan disagreed. She had to keep Lin Yiwan by her side and never give her a chance to respond.

She stopped him without hesitation: "No, she's here to take care of me, so I have to stay with her every step of the way!"

Lin Yiwan was also good at pretending. She subconsciously held her chest and gasped for breath: "I, I can't breathe anymore. The smell in the house is too pungent. I'll just go stand in the yard and come back later. Isn't that okay?"

Old Madam Zhan was so angry that her face turned ashen. There was no smell in her room at all.

She is always good at pretending!

But Zhan Yan fell for her trick and actually helped her out personally.

Seeing that no one was around, Lin Yiwan quickly spoke up, "Yingyi, quickly go back to my yard and search every corner to see if there's anything suspicious. This old Taoist priest isn't here with good intentions!"

Ying Yi understood clearly. Having been with Zhan Yan for many years, he was very familiar with the dirty tricks in the backyard.

He quickly asked, "What should we do if we find anything suspicious?"

Lin Yiwan's eyes rolled. Aren't they trying to frame her? Then they should implicate Chen Zhilan as well.

She whispered, "Put it in Chen Zhilan's room and give them a surprise!"

After Ying received the task, he turned around and left quickly.

The old lady guarding outside did not become suspicious. After all, who would have guessed that Lin Yiwan was so smart?

At this time, Zhan Yu in the house had already begun to introduce the identity of the old Taoist priest: "Father, this is the Taoist priest that I invited from Ruyi Temple. Grandmother's health has not been good, and there have been frequent incidents in our house, so I thought of asking him to come and take a look!"

Taoist Master Ruyi also bowed immediately: "I pay my respects to you, Lord Marquis!"

Zhan Yan said with a serious face: "Master, you have worked hard all the way. Please take a seat and have a cup of tea first!"

His gaze was so sharp that it frightened Taoist Ruyi so much that his face turned pale.

He didn't want to stay in the Marquis' Mansion for long, so he politely refused: "No need, I will go back to the Taoist temple after I have examined Madam Zhan!"

Zhan Yan didn't insist any longer and turned aside to let him take a closer look at Old Madam Zhan.

After a while, Taoist Ruyi closed his eyes and muttered something.

He paced back and forth in the room quickly, his expression gradually becoming solemn and ugly.

Suddenly, his eyes widened.

Zhan Yu hurried forward and asked, "Master, what do you think? Is there something ominous in this mansion that is hindering my grandmother?"

Taoist Ruyi stroked his beard and said, "Young Master, your prediction is correct. There is indeed an evil spirit that has polluted the old lady's body, causing her to be bedridden and mentally depressed. Moreover, that spirit is too vicious and has affected the fortune of the Marquis' Mansion. If it is not eliminated, disaster will surely befall the entire family!"

Madam Zhan immediately sobbed sadly: "Yan'er, did you hear that? Someone is using evil things to murder your mother and destroy the fortune of our Zhan family!"

Zhan Yan asked calmly, "Master, can you calculate the direction of the evil creature?"

Taoist Ruyi shook his head and said, "I can't figure out the direction, but that person should have just arrived at the Marquis' Mansion. Because the influence of that evil spirit is still relatively weak, if time passes, I'm afraid it won't be as simple as Madam Zhan being bedridden!"

Lin Yiwan, who was standing at the door, couldn't help but roll her eyes. "You stinky old Taoist priest, why don't you just say my name?"

And he’s a newcomer!

You're really good at beating around the bush!

Madam Zhan reacted instantly. She pointed her finger at Lin Yiwan angrily and said, "It's you, you vicious woman! What dirty tricks did you use to harm me?"

Zhan Yu also knelt down in front of Lin Yiwan and begged, "Mother, I'm the one who wronged you in the Zhan family. You blame me for everything. Please don't hurt Grandmother. It wasn't easy for her to raise my father. After all, she is your mother-in-law. Aren't you afraid that if something happens to her, you and your father will be branded as unfilial?"

Lin Yiwan was so angry that she almost laughed. Zhan Yu had gone to great lengths to prove her guilt. Didn't this directly indicate that she had entered the mansion with resentment?

She walked slowly up to him, saw his hands supporting the ground, and stepped on them without hesitation.

"Ah!" Zhan Yu never expected that she would dare to step on her fingers in public. It hurt so much.

Hearing the scream, Lin Yiwan quickly took a half step back. "Oh, my dear, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to step on you. I just feel so angry that I was wronged. How could I use a sorcerous thing to murder the old lady? You and Chen Zhilan had an affair before your marriage, and even your live sex scene with Su Zining in the guest hall of the princess's mansion has nothing to do with me!"

She paused, her eyes almost filled with grievance: "I obviously saved you. If I hadn't used a stick to beat you apart from Su Zining, you two would still be connected!"

Zhan Yu was so ashamed that she wished she could find a hole to crawl into.

Madam Zhan was so angry that her teeth were bared and her eyes were cracked. She shouted sternly: "Shut up. Did you harm me? Let the maids search your room and we'll know."

Lin Yiwan retorted without hesitation, "Why? I'm not the only one new to the mansion. Didn't your grandson's concubine, Chen Zhilan, also just arrive? Why don't you search her?"
