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

The Duke's wife quickly replied, "He's feeling better now, thanks to the lung-nourishing prescriptions given to him by Old Doctor Lin. Now he can eat and sleep well, and he doesn't even cough once!"

The three of them arrived at the teahouse, and she quickly ordered someone to serve tea.

Lin Yiwan looked around and asked, "Madam, how long do you plan to stay in Beijing?"

The Duke's wife said with a complicated expression, "There have been many changes in the palace. I originally planned to leave the capital after paying my respects to the Queen, but now A Yu has been burned to death. How can I just leave? I will talk to him after the eldest prince feels better!"

Lin Yiwan could tell that she was still brooding over Xiao Yu's death.

Although he didn't express his resentment towards her in words, he was still dissatisfied.

Thinking of this, the coldness in her eyes became even more severe.

She said calmly, "Madam, you misunderstood. Xiao Yu was not burned alive. It was just a trick!"

The Duke's wife looked at her in disbelief: "What do you mean?"

Lin Yiwan stood up and approached her: "What I mean is that Xiao Yu faked his death and escaped. He has now fled the palace and his whereabouts are unknown!"

The Duke's wife's pretty face suddenly turned pale!

She clenched her fingers tightly and said, "Madam Hou, are you suspecting that I'm hiding him?"

Lin Yiwan lowered her eyes and chuckled, "Whether it's hidden or not, wouldn't we know if we just have someone search for it?"

The Duke's wife frowned and interrupted, "Do you know how much of a ripple it would have on us if you sent people to search the Duke's Mansion?"

Lin Yiwan said, "That's why I hope the Duke's wife will be honest. I also care about the reputation of the Duke's Mansion!"

The Duke's wife bit her lip hard and said, "Wanwan, you are my children's savior. My heart is always with you. How could you doubt me?"

Lin Yiwan looked into her eyes and asked, "I'm asking you one last time, did Xiao Yu really never come to see you?"

The Duke's wife was silent for a moment before slowly answering, "I did. He asked me for help, hoping I could help him, but I persuaded him to return to the palace. I told him that in this world, if you do something wrong, you must take responsibility. Besides, I don't have the ability to take him out of the capital from under the Marquis's nose, right?"

Lin Yiwan nodded. "You're right. Even if I have to dig three feet underground, I'll find Xiao Yu. Since the Duke's wife didn't hide him, there's no need for me to hold you so tightly!"

The Duke's wife immediately spoke up, "If Xiao Yu sends me any more news, I will definitely inform the Marquis' wife immediately, okay?"

Lin Yiwan laughed at herself and said, "I won't embarrass Madam Guo. I'll find another way to find him!"

After saying that, she told Sang Qiutang to get up and leave.

The Duke's wife did not dare to delay and immediately chased after them to see them out.

Only after they walked away did she let out a long sigh.

She murmured in a low voice: "Ayu, you really made it difficult for your aunt this time!"

She hurried back home, while Lin Yiwan and Sang Qiutang were also sitting in the carriage with solemn expressions.

Sang Qiutang spoke first: "Wanwan, how could you let her go so easily? I can see that she must be hiding something!"

Lin Yiwan murmured sarcastically, "Xiao Yu is hiding in the Duke's Mansion!"

Sang Qiutang held her hand tightly, his eyes full of heartache.

The feeling of being backstabbed by people close to you is really sad.

Lin Yiwan immediately calmed down and said, "Aunt, I can think it through. What I need to do now is to catch Xiao Yu and kill him!"

She hated Xiao Yu so much that he dared to kidnap her most precious child. Why should she let him go?

More importantly, he had a terrible impact on Little Meow Meow.

The originally innocent little girl has become a frightened bird these days.

Whenever someone made a loud noise, she would hide in the box with her eyes wide open in fear.

No matter who it is, no one can persuade him!

She and Zhan Yan were really heartbroken!

Sang Qiutang reached out and hugged her: "Wanwan, your uncle and I will support you no matter what you do. We, the Lin family, are always united!"

Lin Yiwan whispered, "Well, the Duke's Mansion is full of meritorious service. If Zhan Yan and I were to search the mansion, we would definitely be questioned. The Emperor might even use this as an excuse to make Prince Li's Mansion and Marquis Zhan Yi's Mansion the target of public criticism!"

Sang Qiutang said nothing and continued to wait for her to finish.

Lin Yiwan said slowly, "I want to give Xiao Yu a chance and lure him to the Zhan Yihou manor in the suburbs of Beijing!"

Sang Qiutang immediately understood that this was a trick to catch the turtle in the jar.

She nodded: "Okay, give him more bargaining chips, and I will also bring my daughter to go to the farm with you!"

The next day, the whole family of Zhan Yihou went to the farm to relax.

Although Zhan Qingning's injuries have improved, he still cannot move freely.

So let her stay in the mansion first!

Lin Yiwan took the three little treasures on a carriage. They were very excited when they heard that they were going to the farm to catch fish.

Especially the little cat, it's a rare sweet smile.

She said, "I want to eat fish, lots of fish!"

Lin Yiwan gently tapped her nose: "You little greedy cat, do you love eating fish so much?"

She answered seriously: "I'm a cat, so of course I have to eat fish, right?"

The second son of the Zhan family shook his thin arms and shouted: "Catch, catch the big fish!"

Young Master Zhan knocked him on the head and said, "We are not deaf, why are you shouting so loudly?"

Several people laughed and thought these children were really cute.

When the carriage arrived at the farm, Lin Yiwan gave each of them a small Fishing King.

Little Miaomiao also took one, and Zi'er carried her towards the stream in the back mountain.

Lin Yiwan narrowed her eyes and followed behind, thinking, after hearing the news, Xiao Yu should be unable to contain himself, right?

She was not wrong. At this moment, Xiao Yu, who was hiding in the Duke's Mansion, was having a fierce quarrel with the Duke's wife.

He said angrily: "Aunt, I know you are doing this for my own good, but I can't be a coward in your Duke's Mansion forever!"

The Duke's wife felt that the cold-hearted child in front of her was frightening. He knew clearly that there were dangers everywhere outside, but he still wanted to run outside.

Is he so sure that he can get away with it?

She couldn't help but plead, "Yu'er, the Duke's Mansion is your best refuge right now. Do you know why Zhan Yan and the others didn't dare to search it? It's because this family of meritorious service protects the house. Can't you just rest here? Why do you have to run to a dangerous place?"

Xiao Yu clenched his fists and said, "The protection of the Duke's Mansion is only temporary. My target is still the third daughter of the Marquis Zhan Yi's Mansion. As long as I have her firmly in my hands, no one can do anything to me!"

The Duke's wife spoke up, "Why are you so stubborn? What good will it do you to continue to oppose them?"

Xiao Yu frowned and interrupted: "Aunt, I have made up my mind. Please stop trying to persuade me. Thank you for taking care of me these two days. I'm leaving now!"

After saying this, he left through the back door of the Duke's Mansion.

He dressed himself up as a little beggar, with his entire face covered in mud, so that his original appearance could not be recognized at all.
