The most likely reason Yao Jinsheng bought a house outside is to keep a mistress.

Just like Qin Shuangshuang, she was also brought to this courtyard, but not to the Yao residence. It's likely that similar things have happened quite a few times in this courtyard, but they were kept hidden and many people were unaware of them.

"If it's discovered that Yao Jinsheng was previously involved in shady dealings here, then his previous lie about his deep affection for his ex-wife will be completely shattered!"

Luo Huaili's eyes lit up. He loathed Yao Jinsheng and wished he could expose the guy's true colors so that everyone could see them clearly.

"It is said that his ex-wife, Ding Xuan, fell during childbirth, which caused her blood and qi to become unstable, leading to a difficult childbirth and her death. Both mother and child died."

Previously, the Yao family had always cherished this child. On the one hand, she was Yao Jinsheng's first child, and on the other hand, the Ding family held a high position, and Lord Ding treasured this daughter very much.

With so many people taking care of him, how could he possibly trip and fall outside in the dead of winter?

Song Yanzhou pondered deeply. He had been investigating Yao Jinsheng's case during this time, and naturally, he had come across Ding Xuan's situation.

Song Zhiyu's eyes widened. "Could it be that Ding Xuan discovered Yao Jinsheng and his men fooling around in this courtyard, and that's why she accidentally fell and lost her life?"

“Third Brother Song, I think you’re right, that’s how it should be!” Luo Huaili nodded. “Lord Ding cherishes Ding Xuan very much, and he was heartbroken because of this.”

Even though Ding Xuan was gone, Yao Jinsheng still took good care of her because of his deep affection for her.

If he knew the truth, wouldn't that mean...?

At that moment, the men present all understood each other without saying a word.

Song Yanzhou lowered the coldness in his eyes. Yao Jinsheng dared to lay a hand on his fifth sister and had his eye on Qingyin. Rather than being on guard, it was better to strike first!

Luo Huaisheng remained calm, his mind already made up. This despicable and shameless guy dared to try and marry his sister? He was asking for death!

Song Zhiyu was thinking about finding an opportunity to break Yao Jinsheng's third leg. He had just understood that this bastard was trying to harm his fifth sister!

As long as he's around, no one can hurt his sister!

However, just as the siblings were about to leave, they discovered that their mother had not come out with them.

"Where did Mother go?" Song Zhiyu hurriedly began searching.

Song Ruozhen quickly found her mother, whose usually gentle face was now watching the commotion with great interest.

"Mother, it's time to go."

Hearing her daughter's reminder, Liu Ruyan finally came to her senses, her face full of the excitement of watching a spectacle unfold.

"Old Madam Lin and Madam Yao got into a fight."

Hearing the noise, Song Ruozhen also looked inside and sure enough, Madam Lin and Madam Yao were already fighting. However, Madam Lin alone was no match for so many people from the Yao family.

I wonder what kind of expression Lin Zhiyue will have when he arrives after hearing the news?

"Serves them right, they're all rotten!"

Liu Ruyan felt a surge of satisfaction; the Lin family deserved to marry such a woman!

Song Ruozhen understood that her mother was still upset about the previous annulment of the engagement, and chuckled, "The wicked will be punished by the wicked; their suffering is yet to come!"

"You're right, a blessed woman doesn't marry into an unblessed family. You were absolutely right to break off the engagement!"

Now Lin Zhiyue can see for himself whether he's married a treasure!

……

After waking up from a nap, Lin Zhiyue realized that Qin Shuangshuang had not returned yet, so he went to the Qin family to ask for news.

Upon hearing this, Gu Yunwei immediately straightened her face. "Did you have a fight with Shuangshuang and make her leave? You're in such a sorry state now, and Shuangshuang hasn't even looked down on you. It's really awful of you to treat her badly!"

In the past, Gu Yunwei would have been more polite to Lin Zhiyue, but ever since the two families broke off relations in the prison, she has felt extreme disgust for the Lin family.

“My mother-in-law misunderstood. Shuangshuang and I did not quarrel. Last night she only said that she was going out for a while, and she has not come back since.

"I searched everywhere I could last night, and only today did I come to the manor to ask if she had gone back to her parents' home," Lin Zhiyue explained.

Gu Yunwei frowned. "Shuangshuang isn't the playful type. How could she run away from home without a word? You better find her properly. If anything happens to her, I'll hold you responsible!"

As Gu Yunwei and Lin Zhiyue prepared to go out to search, they discovered that many people on the street were staring at Lin Zhiyue and covering their mouths to smirk.

It would be one thing if one person did this, but when several people did it, Lin Zhiyue was completely baffled.

"What are you laughing at?" Lin Zhiyue shouted angrily at one of them.

The man was startled by Lin Zhiyue and sneered, "Why are you being so fierce? Your wife and the young master of the Yao family were caught in bed together today. You're incompetent, so your wife had to find someone else!"

"Isn't that right? What a heartless bastard! How much did Miss Song sacrifice for the Lin family back then? In the end, she's spending the Song family's money and living a carefree life with Qin Shuangshuang."

Now karma's coming back to bite them. They've only been married a short time, and Qin Shuangshuang's already slept with someone else!

These words were like a bucket of cold water poured over Lin Zhiyue's head, leaving his mind blank for a moment.

"What nonsense are you spouting? How dare you slander my wife!" Lin Zhiyue shouted angrily.

"Who would slander you for no reason? This morning, Old Madam Lin personally caught them in the act, and she's being beaten by Madam Yao right now. Why don't you go and see for yourself instead of having the leisure to question others?"

Lin Zhiyue's face turned pale. Seeing that everyone was saying the same thing, it was clear that everyone had come to watch the show. He couldn't care less about anything else and hurriedly headed towards the Yao family!

He couldn't believe Shuangshuang would treat him like this!

Gu Yunwei was struck dumb upon hearing the news. If it were true, what a disaster it would be!

Because of Qin Xiangheng's matter, the Qin family has lost face during this period. They are just waiting for him to get good grades so that they can regain their reputation. But if what everyone is saying is true, then the Qin family's reputation will be completely ruined!

When Lin Zhiyue arrived, Old Madam Lin had already fainted in the Yao family's courtyard.

Xu Shiyi didn't expect that Old Madam Lin was so useless; she fainted after being hit a few times.

"Guards, take Old Madam Lin back. Even if she's driven to death by her daughter-in-law, she shouldn't die in our house!"

"Yes, ma'am."

Qin Shuangshuang trembled with anger, "It was clearly you who caused my mother-in-law to faint, and now you're saying it's because of me?"

Xu Shiyi didn't even raise her eyes. "If you hadn't seduced my son, why would your mother-in-law be here?"

Madam Lin, you've done all sorts of shameless things, and now you want to frame our Yao family?

"I know your Lin family is down on its luck now, and you owe the Song family a mountain of debt, but you don't need to make your matriarch sell herself, do you?"

"Considering you served Jinsheng for so long, consider this thousand taels a reward. Pack your things and get out!"
